EXPERT VIEWS OF THE TLRIFE.

"The North American Review has done
what the ozark Lantern" confederates neg
lected to do. 1t has invited representatives OF
the great industries affected by the line of action
proposed by the Presidents Message to give the
country the benefit Of their practical experience.
Over thirty pages of the current number are oc-
cupied with brief statements Of opinion on the
leading question of the day from men compe-
tent to speak for the productive interests of the
country. These statements are made in re-
Spouse TO direct inquiry respecting the prob
able effect Of measures passed In line with the
Message on the industries which they repre-
sent and on the wages of working people en-
ployed by them. Seventeen of these business
experts testify with one accord that the effect
OF such legislation would be ruinous to indus
tries and wage-earncrs alike.
The Hon. b. F. Jones, speaking on behalf Of
iron and steel manufactures, resolves the
tariff into simple question of wages and rate
of interest. He contends that Protection would
not be needed If it were possible to make the
rate Of interest as low for business purposes
here as it is abroad, and also If it were desira-
bic to reduce wages to the pinching standard Of
other countries. He denies that Protection can

A REBUKE NEEDED.

"The Providence Journal" must be highly
Qratificd by the applause which its treacherous
coursc is drawing forth from Democratic and
Muewump journals On the eve OF State
election which will have an important bearing
ON the National contest. 1t repeats the dastardly
tactic: which resulted in Republican defeat a
wear ago. It singles out one of the candidates
Of the Republican party and insults him daily.
thereby impciling the chances OF the ticket
ana encoura ging the Democrats to believe that
they can carry the State second time and
possibly elect United States Senator There
has been . touch of feminine spitefuness In
tho recent course of that journal in State
politics Its opposition to Governor Wetmoro
last year was inspired by wanton spirit OF
yindictiveness and strife. It made itself the
organ of the old-women gossips OF the town.
Its insolent conduct this year in drawing lines
across tho namc of another worthy Republican
candidate and in denouncing him as a corrupt
and unworthy citizen Is equally capricious
and malevolent. 1t is utterly Indifferent to
the great issue at stake in the National and
Senatorial elections 1t succeeded last year in
handing the State over TO the Democrats almost
for the first time in this generation. and it is
anxious to repeat the exploit for the sake OF
gratifying a malignant spite.
The conduct Of this trcacherous journal is
only applicable on the theory that those who
are conducting it have ceased to care for the
things which make for Republicanism. For a
long time It has been sneering at Republicans
of National reputation. who command the con-
fidence of the party. It has shown no SYM
pathy with the fundamental principles OF that
party. Especially on economic questions like
the tariff have its ntterances been equivocal
and unsound. Little discernment is required
10 discover from It's files that it is doing what
It can In an underband way to defeat the Re-
publican party in the State and in the Nation
It is an exchange that is constantly quoted by
Mugwump and Democratic journals as one of
the best representatives of New-England Re-
publicanism In Senator Anthony's time it de-
served such praise It Is now to all intents
and purposes in sympathy with free trade and
Mugwumpery. We trust that the intelligent
voters of Rhode Island will not be misled 10y
It's hypocritical pretence Of opposing Republi-
can candidates this year on public or moral
grounds or " for the ultimate good OF the
party" There is no institution in Rhode Island
and Providence Plantations that stands in such
sore need Of singing rebuke on both public
and moral grounds as the canting. dictatorial
and insolent "Journal."

pcals made to him. and declares that he will
vote in the negative. There Is Jet time for him
to change his mind and obey the wishes OF his
constituents and his party. Any other course
will be suicidal
Ex-Aldcrman Michael Duffy enriched our
vocabulary by adding to it the expressive word
g combine.n 1t was thus that he described the
ring in the Common Council Of 1884 which
agreed to " consider all railroad matters and
make the "Aldemanic business" as profitable
as possible. Duffy now enjoys the distinction
of being judgment debtor, and when ex-
amined in supplementary proceedings be proves
an interesting witness, though not satisfactory
one for his creditor As for his share OF the
Broadway doodle" he says that he "spent it
with the boys around, and had good time
with it," He admits that he has plenty OF
money now, but defies his creditors to get hold
of it. From the progress they made yesterday
they will have hard time Duffy Is Stall
figure of some little interest. 1t Is noteworthy
that he seems to feel no oontrition for his part
in the Broadway infamy and the subsequent
proceedings.
owe have not had any Civil Service Reform
in Indiana" Is the emphatic statement made
yesterday before Senator Hales committee BY
Mr. William Dudley Foulko, president OF the
Civil Service Reform Association OF that State.
The detailed testimony and figures given BY
Mr.. Foulke confirm this sweeping condemns
ton of REFORM as it is prsctised under Presi-
dent Cleveland. The most significant part OF
Mr.. Foulke's evidence il that after making full
investigations and ascertaining that Rcpuo-
lcans by the score were being turned out OF
Office to make room for Democrats, when no
charges had been made against them, he went
to Washington and laid the facts before the
President; only to find that what had been
done met with Mr.. Cleveland's full approval
The Administrations disregard of solemn
pledges is notorious but after this we ought
to hear very little about Civil Service Reform
being upheld by the party now in power Ciyii
Service Reform. in fact, has become farce OF
the broadcast variety

TIE MfLLIoN-DOLLAR CANAL BILL


An attempt is being industriousy made III
some quarters to produce the impression that
opposition to the milliop-dollar canal bill means
unfriendiness TO the policy Of canal improve
ment There 10 no warrant in fact for this
allegation. The canals will not suffer, pro-
jccted improvements will not be embarrassed
II the appropriation is materially reduced or
postponed until another year. These facts
we're clearly established in letter from the
Albany correspondent of THE TRIBUNE which
was printed on Monday. The last Legislature
appropriated S55OOOO to increase the lockagc
capacity Of the Erie and other canals. and
large portion Of this amount still remains in
tho hands of the Superintendent OF Public
Works "Only S172,s2s has been expended"
our correspondent reports, "of the $4,000
appropriated for frightening the locks Of the
Erie Canal; only SlS,5S0 OF the $4,000 APP
propriated for frightening the locks OF the
Oswego Canal only $500 of the $4,000 for
dredging the Oswego Canal; only S35,sS7 OF
the $4,000 appropriated for the Lake Cham
plain Canal, and only $1,000 of the $4,000
for the Black River Canal"
These figures enforce their own lesson. The
wisdom of voting million dollars for canal
improvements with large appropriation for
that very purpose still on hand is questionable
to say the least The majority of the tax
payers are willing to respond literally to any
appeal to their pockets in behalf of necessary
public works This has steadily been shown
Hence they have Endorsed the policy of canal
Improvement in all that it implies in the view Of
the most intelligent and experienced friends
Of our great system Of artificial waterways
But indorsing that policy is one thing and in
dorsing the policy of premature or excessive
appropriations for the canals is quite another.
