How Judge Gary Revepged Himself on .
Friend.

One day while the Anarchist triaI was
going on in Judge Gary's court, Mr.. William
King, who is upward Of 10 years old, sought
admission, but was told he could not go in.
Going TO the state attorneys Office, Mr.. King
explained that he was an old friend Of Judge
Gary. and ne was sure the judge would let
him in il he knew he was there. Mr.. Furth-
mann told him the court room was full, but
that he would try TO find a place within tho
bar. In a few moments the two entered the
court room, and started 70 walk down the
aisle.
'Sit down" said Judge Gary, sternly.
Your honor explained Mr. Furthmann,
"this is an old friend Of yours
"Sit down said Judge Gary, louder and
more sternly.
MIR. King looked as if he would like to have
a big hole come up through the floor and
swallow him. There was no place for him to
sit down, and still the judge kept calling for
him 10 do 50. He looked appealingly at bis
old friend, but the old friend only glared or
him savagely and repeated the awful com
mand, "Sit down"
When the old gentleman had mIccoeled in
reaching the bar Mr.. Grinncll got up and
gave MIN his seat. When court was adj

bench, rubbing his hands together g~leefully

The President In the matter OF The
treaty meant wisely to follow the policy
of peace, and the Republican Senate re-
jected the treaty merelyto discredit the
Administration, not dreaming that they
could be forced TO own the responsibility
of their folly. The President did the
only thing that Straightforward man
could do, and that was to retire on the
only position left him and insist that the
rights of our people should not be left at
the mercy of the Canadians. Mr.. Blaine,

Senator Bailey Of inu.ana has made q
speech in which the following striking
passages occur:
If protection affect wages adversely
why do the coal, iron and other highly
benefited industries pay the lowest
wages, Or why In our several States, all
under the same tariff law, does the price
paid for labor differ as widely as in the
countries Of the Old World!
Does man looking for employment
in the United States give preference TO
the protected branches OF trade? Would
he not do so If they afforded him better
or more permanent relurnsy
"The lsborer in the highly protected
countries of Spain, Germany, France
and Mexico gets far less pay or comforts
than in England with her system of low
taxes. Why is this
as not the compensation Of labor the
world over fixed by considerations of
supply, demand and efficiency of service!

increase the pay OF workingmen instead
OF the profits OF the manufacturer, would

REPUBLICAN SURPLUS REDUCTIONS
Senator Allison, OF Iowa: in his speech

REPUBLICAN SURPLUS REDUCTIONS
Senator Allison, OF Iowa; in his speech
on the sundry Civil Appropriation bill
a few days sgo. made the statement that
the treasury surplus al the end OF the
fiscal year would not exceed si9,0O9Coo.
This was az effort to mislead the public
entirely unworthy OF anyone occupying
the exslt position OF Senator OF the
limited States. Senator Beck very
quickly exploded the ilimsy bubble OF
the Radical Senator from Iowa by stat
inr tbatto the $4,000 900 in the treasury
must be added $40,Oo0,000 Of surplus
charreabie TO former years, and $50 600 .
900 Of sinking fund, making with the
sl9 600 600 grand total Of 500 0OO,O 900
of surplus.
Senator Allison's remarks, however,
were made with the intention OF deceig-
ing the people into the belief that the
n uch talked of surplus is not so large as
to demand reduction Of taxation, be
evidently forgetting that his party has
admitted tina, the contrary is the case by
declaring in favor of reducing the reve-
nue. to the extent of abolisbipg
all internal taxes on whiskey. Still
II seems to be the fixed policy OF the Re-
publ;can Senators TO waste the surplus
In every conceivable form so that they
NAV have some prelext for continuing
the present oppressive burdens imposed
on the people. AS an exchange truly
says: Scarcely Republican Senator
has spoken during the session upon The
revenues and finances who has not IN
dertaken to show how easy !; would be
10 expend the Treasury surplus and thus
save The necessity OF reducing the tarlii'
The Republican Senator'S have sneered
AZ 'chesee-paring' economy in their
sneeches. and have commended the
policy Of liberal expenditure as alone
becoming a great and wealthy govern
mcnt."
The great point that the Southern peo-
ple have TO consider is that these liberal
expenditures" for which the Repub-
licans are so clamorous, are all made at
their expense. The radical game Is
mainly to reduce the treasury surplus by
voting it away in pensions, they
reasoning that such disposition OF II
would appeal to popular prejudice AMI
enable them to keep up their protective
system for the benefit Of the few at the
expense Of tue many This is why the
Senate has iairoaded through, in most
reckless style, pension bills without
number, and why President Cleveland has
been forced to send in 50 many vetoes.
II is estimated thai the enormous sum
of $93. 100000 per annum Is now required
TO meet these pension lists, and the
south bas 10 bear the braHt OF tie
taxation Necessary to raise the funds
for these immense expenditures, every
dollar Of which, be It remembered, IS
voted away by Radical Senate to tie
North. Thus the Radicals most lngeui-
ously hope to contrive so that the
peope may be induced to continue
them in power and enable them still to
foster monopoly for the benefit Of their
few friends and favorit while the South
has to pay tie full score. II any South

Make His Policy Consistent.

New York Sun.
We shall pot undertake to offer any advice to
Mr.. Cleveland regarding his official and political
acts. He does what he thinks fife and does not
appear to take counsel with anyone but him
self. Yet his retaliation message strikes ont a
new and most interesting line of policy, and, il
1t is to be carried out, and to have its full and
legitimate effect upca the public mind, IL must
be supplemented and completed by other acts
looking in the same direction with the message.
The first Of these acts would be the dismissal
second would be the recall Of Mr.. E. j. Phelps
AZ minister to the court of St. James.
AS for Mr.. Phelps, we proffer the suggestion
without hesitation and without reserve. lie
does not appear to be an American in sentiment
or In ideas. He 10 not in sympathy with the
irish home-rulers, though every genuine Ameri-
can is; and bis appointment vas a grave mis-
take, injurious to Mr.. Cleveland and injurious
to the Democracy from the very beginning.
but 1t ia not without a pang that We declare
that, II Mr.. Cleveland means to be consistent
with his new attitude, If he means to follow out
to Its proper conclusion the new and glorious
line OF conduct on which he has now embarked,
he cannot retain in the most conspicuous. i'm
portant, and influential post of his Cabinet the
man who was primarily responsible for the
fishery treaty which has Just been rejected by
the Senate, and which President Cleveland
most effectively and emphaticaily repudiates in
his retaliation message. For these many years
no man has been dearer to the Democracy of
the United States than Thomas Francis Bayard.
Elevated In his purposes. true and faithful 10
his labors, he has been regarded as the ideal OF
fishery treaty, aud the present policy Of Mr..
Cleveland il in direct opposition herewith;
and every house divided against itself shall not
stand!
