A disp atch was recently received by an
iron worker in Pennsylvania from Ponty-
pool, Wales, stating that ten mills and a
number of pudding works which had been
idle for a long period are starting up in that
vicinity, and Offering him position as man

trial agitation the belief that the Mills bill
was to become a law So the English man.
ufacturers think that if they can come into
the American markets upon equal terms
with American manufacturers they can
undersell them and have an advantage on
account of the cheap labor they employ.
This is very significant and ought to be a
warning to the gentlemen who are medi-
tating this assault upon the tariff system.
They want to break down protection under
the guise of revenue reform, and English
free traders are hoping they will, so that
they can steal away their markets There

Philadelphia Press; The Democratic party
has had control OF the House of Representa-
tives for six years, during which time the
surplus revenues have grown to be oppress-
i've. In ali that time the party has not been
able to present measure which even the
Democrats could unite on. AS party they
are consequently responsible for all the
evils of a surplus in the Treasury vaults
and the consequent danger to the money
market. They are entitled to the credit of
having by a crude and in a dangerous way
averted actual calamity last year, but the
want of craftsmanship on the part Of the
Democratic leaders is the basis of the whole
trouble Time and again the Republicans
since the war have reduced revenues, in
ternal and custom duties, and did SO in the
last Congress in which they had control of
the House. In view Of these facts the Dem
ocratic platform is tissue of misstate-
melts and is misleading in every way.

The platform adopted by the Prohibition
National Convention in indianapolis, after
demanding the total abolition Of the Internal
Revenue system, makes the following DECLARE
ton:
That adequate public revenue being necessary,
may lie properly raised by import duties and imposed
such articles Of import rs VIII give protection bot
TO the manufacturing employer and producing laborei
against the competition OF the world but Import duties
should be so reduced that surplus SHAH be az
cumulacd In the Treasury, and that the burdens of
taxation shall be removed from foods, clothing am
other comforts and neccssar.cs OF llfe
Examined carefully, this appears to be moro
# a frce-trade than a protection plank II
was obviously intended to be SOM, hing or
both. The politicians q the Prohibition move
ment wanted to avoid frightening away Re-
pubcans who believed in protection by dis
segarding the importance Of that principle.
At the same time, they foresaw that, from the
nature Of things, their campaign would need
10 be a tacit alliance with the Democratic
party. in fact, the plank as prepared in com
mittee contained no alluSion to protection.
That was added aftcrward in convention.
Now, what have Prohibhionists who are en-
gagged in manufactures, either as, employers or
as wagc-carnors, to say to this? Protection
is the one overshadowing issue Of this can
yass, while Prohibition is not a National issue
at all. General Fisk could do nothing to bring
about Prohibition, even if he should be elected
President In former campaigns it has often
been said that there was no real difference be-
tween the two great parties With many
voters of this way Of thinking it was not
difficult to persuade men to vote in the air fer
an abstraction. But this year there is a wide
gulf between the two parties. The Repub-
lican who deserts his party at this time, or re-
fuses to 60 back to his place in the ranks, can
not natter himself tina, he is giving no aid or
comfort TO the free-trade Democracy. Every
vote subtracted from Protection is added to
Free Trade. vote against Harrison is vote
against protection and American wages for
American workmen no matter whether 1t be
cast for Fisk or for Cleveland There are
many sincere believers in protection among
those who have been voting the Prohibition
ticket. We do not believe they will give their
votes for Fisk Free Trade and Lower Wages

record which knocks this plank to iiinders' lie
has taken pains to show that he Is not lfiehd
Of the canals. Elected Governor in 1888, his
animal messages to the Legislature since then
contain not so much as reference to canal
matters. The Constitution makes it the duty
of Governor "to communicate by message to
the Legislature at every session the cond''ioh
of the State, and recommend such matters 10
them as he shall Judge expedieni." Since 1889
the canals have engrossed n large share ol the
public attention. Shall the locks be length
ened? hall the channel be dcepenedY Shall
terminal elevator charges be regulated ny law
Shall Federal aid be invoked to pay Tor the
projected improvements?
These and kindred canal questions have
been discussed by newspapers, canal conVen-
tons. Chambers Of Commerce and Boards OF
Trade as well as by the Legislature. Ana s'ill
Governor Hill has not judged it eXpedlent
even to refer to any phase of the canal prob
lem. Well may the boatmen of the state smile
contemptuously as they see him making a bid
for the canal vote Nor has the Governors
opposition to the canals ended with Ignoring
them in his annual messages. in 1885 he
went a step further. In that year the Legs
lature, which was Republican in both ITS
branches, passed a bill appropria'ing 5000
600 to increase the lockage capacity St the
Erie and Oswego canals and to improve the
Oswcgo Black River. Champlain and Cayuga
and Seneca canals. This bill David Il. Hill
who now takes his stand on 4 platform in
dorsing the policy Of canal improvements de-
clined to sign. 1t became law, but no thanks
to him. 1t became a law by Republican votes
and without his signature.
Hill has fairly earned the vote Of the sn-
looms He has faithfully served the rum power,
and in return the liquor men Of the state Will
work like beavers for him. But he must not
count upon the canal men. They know that
he is not their friend

Health that because Of criticisms in some OF
the newspapers regarding the treatment OF
Professor Proctor he should cause the state
ment to be buetined at his olico that the
Board of Health do not feel called upon to
discuss Professor Proctors sickness, nor the
management of the case with any one having
no oflicia! responsibility in the matter" In
an autocratic country like Russia that sort OF
thing will do; here it will not. The death OF
any man from yellow fever and the treatment
he received at the hands of the citys officials
are matters of intense interest to every man
and woman in the city, and the members OF
the Health Department are bound to furnish
all the information asked for by the press.
The proncncss Of this branch of the city gov
eminent to adopt quasi-military methods is not
III all to the tasta of the community, which
knows that public officials are the publcs
servants net its masters. Despite President
Bayless childish and ill-naturcd bulletin there
seems TO be no reason to believe that Mr..
Proctor did not receive the best and tendereSt
of care. The statement sent by Mr.. Bayles to
Mayor Hewitt confirms in every respect HE

TIE SIN IOTAL or IT AL.

We desire to submit TO the serious consdera-
ton of all honest men who have vote in
the State of Newly York one simple proposition.
We ask. in the interest Of what all honest men
must have deeply at hcalt-the cleanliness and
permanence Of our republican system Of self
government, that they think this proposition
over with soberness and candor, divesting
themselves Of what is mere party prejudice,
and looking at it in the light OF their highest
duty as freemen and patriots.
1t has been proved and nobody denies the
fact, that David b. Hills friend, law partner
and factotum, William l.. Muller, asked for
and obtained the votes of a majority Of the
Aqueduct Commissioners in favor Of giving to
John OBncn, Hills political manager, at fig
ures $50, 600 in excess Of the lowest bid GER
tain Aqueduct contract. Muller gave several
Of the Commissioners to understand as they
swore under oath, that Hill wartcd O'Bmen
to receive this contract. Out Of the profits
thus dishonesty made, O'Bren paid note
signed by Hill and Muller for $4,000, the
proceeds of which, previously obtained by
O'Brien from a bank had been given to Null
Ter for use in Hills last campaign just few
days before the election took place.
Now then, waving every other fact bear
ing upon HIS nfincss for Office, and look
ing only at this one transaction, which is not
and cannot be denied, which has been adj
mitted under cath by both OBrion and Null
Ter, and proved independently by other wit
nesses, we ask every voter who calls himself
an honest man, ii he can give his ballet to
David b. Hill and al the same time retain his
sef-respcct? Come, now, honor bright, can

SPEED or TRAINS.

"The Railroad Gazette" continues its show
ing of the relative speed Of passenger trains in
this country by giving the fastest service be-
tween Boston, Philadelphia and Now-York and
their principal summer resorts The fastest
train in the list is a Pennsylvania train from
Philadelphia to Cape May, which makes an
average Of 1915 miles an hour though the Sat
urday Saratoga train on the New York Central
deserves an equal rank, doing more than twice
the distance at an average rate Of 1913 miles
an hour. Philadelphia has good service TO
Long Branch, Cape May and Atlantic City.

Adirondack train, especially, heavier grades
nust he taken into account. One OF the pesU
trains on the list is the fastest on the Boston
and Maine TO Mt Desert which makes 3o'3
miles an hour; the poorest train is the fastest
IN the same road between Boston and fabyans,
in the White Mountains, which makes 26.2
miles m hour, and has, of course, heavy grades
to contend with. Philadelphia is considerably
ahead Of New-York in this showing. The
average speed Of all the Philadelphia trains
to the seashore exceeds that of the Saratoga
trains on the New-York Central by nearly six
miles an hour.
These are all Of course only summer speeds.
and are considerably below the average Of
spced between large cities, where steady
traffic the year around means good road-beds.
Taken in connection with the speed made by
the Flying Scotchman" between London and
Edinburgh the other day, which reached an
average Of SD miles per hour, including
stops. and giving the passengers twenty min
utes for dinner, it is reminder that, in one
thing. at least, Uncle Sam is long way yet
from beating all creation.
