THE first echoes of the Republican
victory says the Philadelphia Times,
bring unmistakable expressions in favor
of prompt tariff aud tax reform by the
Republicans. We give III another
column the declaration OF the Chicago
Tribune and OF Governor Alger, with
with the apparently credible report from
Washington that President Harrison
Will call an extra session Of Congress In
April TO revise the tariff. reduce taxes
and relieve industry of the exaction OF
unneeded revenues.
1t can be only a question of very
brief time when our industries will be
given free raw materials. II not
granted by the Congress just elected, 1t
will be done by the Congress to be
elected IN 1890, aud Republican power
can avert defeat two years hence py
giving our mills ard labor the free raw
materials which are given in every other
protection country OF the world.
If President Harrison is wise, he will
call an extra session Of Congress and
specially charge it with the duty of re-
ducing taxes of the necessaries of life
and ending surplus revenues. If he
shall delay tariff revision and tax and
revenue reduction until December of
next year, the banded profligates and
jobbeTs Of the land will end tax and
revenue reduction by profigacy and in
vite defeat and dishonor upon the ad-
ministratiOn.
The country wants a wise and settled
tariff policy based on the generous pro-
lection OF the wages OF labor, the lowest
taxes on the necessaries of life and the
reduction OF the revenues to the actual
needs of the government. II the Re-
publican administration shall honestly
meet the issue by such legislation, the
vocation of the profligate will De ended,
and the country will heartily sustain
the new President. If the issue shall
not be sqIarely met by jndicious tax
reduction, Republican defeat will be
inevitable.

THE Whitechapel, London, England,
murder tiend has added another to his
list OF victims. On last Friday morn
ming the body of woman cut into
pieces, was discovered in a house on
Dorset street, SpitalAeds. AS hitherto,
the crime was committed in the heart
OF the Whitechapel region, and this
murdeE has many of the characteristics
that has lent horror TO the others in
that region. The last victim was rather
more prosperous than the eight other
victims that have fallen from time TO
time. They were homeless while this
murder wac committed in the wretched
apartment which the woman Inhabited.
Whitechapel women shudder ana re.
call the rudely inscribed legend, Eff
teen before surrender" written on a
wall, beside which the body Of the
fourth victim lay. The appearance OF
the remains OF the last victim was
frightful and the mutilation was even
greater than in any previous cases.
The head had been severed and put
lnjer one OF the arms. The ears and
lose had been cut Off. The body had
cen disembowled, and the flesh was
= orn from the thighs. Several other
u 'snns were missing. The skin had
b. sen torn of the forehead and cheeks.
One hand had been pushed in the
stomach. There appears to be no clue
as yet TO the murderer.

THE DE- feat of President Cleveland,
says the Philadelphia Times, delays but
does not overthrow tariff reform. Only
a man OF his integrity and courage could
have presented the vital issue Of tax and
revenue reduction and submitted il
honestly to the supreme tribunal of the
people. He could have studied exped-
iency by cunning evasion of the issue
and posslbly won second term by cow
ardice; but he was thoroughly con-
WINGED the time had come for the eman-
cipation OF American industry from
needless taxes aud the greed of monopo-
ly, and he accepted honesty and defeat
as preferable 20 dishonest success. Lin
coins patriotic and courageous emanei-
patton of slaves lost him the support of
the great Middle States of the north in
1862, Just as Clevelaud's patriotic and
courageous effort for the emancipation
OF industry from the bondage OF classes
has lost him the same States in 1855 4;
but Lincoln's emancipation is now en-
shrlDed in the refulgence OF our most
lustrous achievement, and Cleveland7s
emancipation of labor will as surely
triumph, despite temporary disaster, as
did the shackling of the bondmen a
bLarter OF century ago.

The suit brought by the Attorney
General of New York, in behalf of the
people or that State against the North
River Sugar Refining Company, to dis
solve that corporation on the ground
that it had exceeded the privileges
granted it by It's charter in becoming
one of the members of the great Sugar
Trnst on the first Of October, 1887, and
other sugar companies, was brought TO
trial on Wednesday in The Supreme
Court. The action is one OF the results
of the Senate Investigating Committee
Of last winter, which for the frs. time
brought to light the deed of trust under
which the different sugar companies
have formed a combination.
It was substantially agreed at the
outset by counsel that there would be
no controverted question of fact for the
court to pass upon, but 1t would merely
be question OF law. The formality of
drawing jury was then gone through
with. The jury were told that as the
only question at issue was one Of law
for the court to pass upon, their services
would not be needed at the trial. They
were only required to be present at the
end of the case to go through the for
mality of returning a verdict, as direct
ed by the court. Counsel agreed that
the testimony to be offered would not
take any very great length of time, aud
that they would ask to have the case
adjourned until "Wednesday next, in
order TO argue the questions Of law.
With this understanding the Jurors
were dismissed until next Wednesday.

ACCORDING TO n recent decision of
the Supreme Court OF Pennsylvania,
a great many men have been hanged
unconstitutionally in this State.-The
Court decides that disagreement of
the jury in murder trials is equivalent to
an acquitaI and The accused person can
not be .rieC twice on the same charge.
This ruling has created considerable
talk among the legal fraturnity, and 1t
is said 1t will have the effect OF releasing
several men who are now awaiting trial
after juries had disagreed on the occas-
OF the first trial

Ma. CHAUNCEY DEPEw IS out III an
interview, says the Pittsourg Post
pleading that the great expense OF the
presidential elections and the disturb
bauce of business consequent on them
should be alleviated by extending the
term to six years. so that in u years,
there would be out two elections in
stead of three. II does seem as II
something should be done 1t is be-
coming wo great tax on the resources
of the protected millionaries, trusts and
monopolies. OF course they must fur

protection" and 10 prevent American
labor being reduced TO the "pauper"
level ot Europe, over which they shed
numerous tears. grunts and groans. 1t
must also be admitted too bad that Mr..
Carnegie and i've other manufacturers
should have been compelled to contrib
ute $3.50, 900 apiece, and that Mr.. Wan
amaker carried to New York S5OO,UO
from Philadelphia Philanthropists TO
Mr.. Quay and Mr.. Dudley, with their
blocks OF fiye," to secure an honest
vote aad protect American labor. 1t is
100 expensive. If eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty, many millions Is
the tribute exacted for such political
victory as we have lately seen, Mr..
Depew, as the representative of the
Vanderbilts, Carnegies, Jay Goulds,
and other devoted friends of labor, is
too modest by half. II auctioning off
the presidency comes too high once
every four years, for the successful
bic ders, why instead of six years not
m ke the term 10 or 20? Bribery when
it gets too common becomes vulgar. 1t
would De great saving to have the hat
passed around and the fat fried Que only
once in 10 years.
But In the interest of honest industry
and American labor we protest. Money
should be kept in circulation. The
channels OF trade need regular irrigation
at frequent intervals. Instead Of pres
idential once every six or ten years, as
Depew proposes, by all means change
the const:Sution and let Us have annual
elections, so that our people may have
the fullest opportunity TO study no max
inns but the markets. II would put
money in circulation, and cause a great
er distribution of wealth, making more
general the solid benefits ofprotection.

Brick the Best Building Material.

Insurance men, as q rule, generally
claim that building which is largely
constructed OF Iron is not necessarily
nreproof. This may be true to a great
extent. Iron when heated, bends very
readily under weight, and therefore of
itself cannot be called flreproof. There
Is much, however. to be said of iron
construction. 1t prevents fire from
spreading, and unless there is a large
amount of innmmable material within
reach OF the flames, there is little dan
ger that fire will make much bsadvav
stone and granite are very little better
than iron TO withstand the rayapes of
fire. There is no material that can be
used for construction equal to brick.
Every brick bears it's own weight.
BIicks have already passed the the
merry ordeal before they are used
In buildings. and are tempered. Cast
iron is not substantial enough. and

rather ornamental than otherwise.

Female Physicians.

Nine years ago the Legislature of
this State recognized the manifest pro-
priety OF the employment of competent
femaie physicians to have the care of
female patients in the State hospitals
for the insane by authorizing the mana
gers and trustees of State hospitals TO
employ them. Under the authority of
this act this has been done in the hos
pitais at Harrisburg Norristown and at
tie Biockley Hospital, with adyanra-
geous results. There are reasons wby
competent women should have the care
OF women patients that are so sugees-
tive as to preclude the necessity of
statement. The late gratifying ad-
vance made in the instruction OF women
at the medical colleges, their admitted
pronelency In their profession, and the
number or graduates, make it impossi-
oie 10 excuse the retention of male
physicians FOR this particular work on
any other ground than a rooted prefer
ence which bars the way to a proper and
needful change. The cure of insane
patients Is not so much a matter of
meolcine as OF care. Women have al
ways been the most tender, watchfuI
ana trustworthy csretakers. They are
purses by natural gift and when such
capacity Is supplemented by proper
medlcai training, their care and skiIl
combined is precisely adapted to suc-
cessfui hospital work. The profession
a. female assistance in the hospltals
which have saken advantage OF Ieejsla-
tive permission is now so cumulatjve
and satisfactory as to warrant such An
amendment to the act OF 1879 as would
compel the authorities having charge
OF the Dixmont. DanyiIle and
warren hospitals TO secure the services
OF skillful resident female physicians.
Ihe hospitals are State institutions and
the preIudices Of their trustees should
no longer be allowed TO stand in the
way OF a change which would be an
aneloration and beneheence fully in
accord with the popular desire and with
the opinion of experts in the treatment
OF lunacy.-PhiId. Record.
