The Western Blizzard.

The Minneapolis Tribune, in view of the
terrible loss of life in the northwestern
States and Territories this winter, thinks it
necessary to attempt defence of the climate
of Dakota and Minnesota. In the first place
it defines a ''blizzard" and really makes it
out harmless breeze. "a blizzard, it says,
sis simply snow storm accompanied by a
high wind and low temperature. In an open
country. where It's sweep is not broken, its
movement is so rapid that it takes people
unawares; and It'll so binding that it almost
invariably confuses the sense of direction"
The Tribune does not dwell upon the fact
that this ''low temperature" freezes people
so that their corpses are found sticking up In
snow drifts like so many posts; or that it so
confuses the sense of direction" that men
and women perish within twenty feet of
their own firesides. it's only the greenhorns
that are caught in these deplorable straits;
thereare ''expedients which old residents
generally understand and use effectually."
''The frontiersmen of experience" says the
Tribune, twill burrow in a snow-drift rather
than grope In search of shelter until he sue
cumbs, exhausted and frozen" Therefore
the inference is drawn that there is nothing
so very terrible about the "blzzard" after
all. We admit that there is not to the man
who is cool and collected enough while
freezing to live up to the motto "dig or die"
But for hair-brained people, for widows and
orphans of tender years, for fastidious people
who object to putting up in hole in snow
bank, the blizzard" nevertheless seems
something rather terrible, though composed,
as we are assured, simply of little cold a
little snow and little wind. Much more
reasonable than this effort to belittle the "blz-
zard" is the Tribune's general defence of

northwestern climate Weean belleve ltwhen
itdeclares: ut is the general verdict OF people

Indiana and Missouri that our Minnesota
and Dakota winters are more comfortable
and enjoyable. and far more healthfnl, than
the winters of their old homes. 1t is colder
here, but it is less variable. 1t is much dryer
the days Of bright sunshine are twice as
numerous, the sleighing is perfect all winter
there is generally less wind, and the days
when driving and out-of-door recreations are
not feasible are much less frequent II Is
also probably true that much of the suffering
from the cold is due to the newness cf the
country, and that, as settlers come in and
cultivate the land aud plant trees, the severe
storms with their loss of life will gradually
disappear. But there is a quarter of the
world whore there il the bright sunshine
the sleighlng, aud the opportunity for out-of-
door exercises of Minnesota and Dakota
without their terrible blizzards: that place
Is Northern New England. Yesterdays

put up III a snow drift over night. Why is

The Ohio Legislature is considering a bill
for the establishment of an Advisory Board
of Pardons, which shall hear all applications
for pardons or reprieves, consider and de-
eide on each case, and, when decision is
reached, recommend in writing to the Gov
ernor either to grant or reject the applca
ton. The object Of such measure is TO re-
lieve the Governor of an annoyance which,
bad enough in smaller States, seems in Ohio
to be positive nuisance and hindrance to
the public business. Judge Hoadly, when
he was Governor, gave in one of his messa-
ges an interesting description Of the way a
Governor is besieged: ''At present the par
don business is conducted largely by ear
wigging. The Governor is beset at his Of
fee, his home, on the street, in the cars, any
where and everywhere. Personal and politi-
cal friends beseech him for pardons in cases
of which they have little or no information.
That in Ohio politics might be brought into
cases where pardons are asked is not sur
prising, considering recent performances
during elections in Hamilton county. The
influence that forced President Cleveland to
pardon the notorious Mullin, would, in SINH
lar cases where punishment had been inflict-
ed by State court, make the life of the
Governor miserable.

Master Workman Beaton of the knights
nf~babar appears TO be in very gloomy
frame of mind. None of last winters labor
legislation suits him, the labor bureau is in
the rut of party politics, uniform State text
books have not been adopted, and his soul is
narrowed up lest workingmen who go on a
strike may be arrested under the tramp law
and shut up in the house of correction. 1t
seems to US that Mr.. Beaton is altogether
more Respondent than the situation justifes
The labor legislation of lest winter was gen.
Herally acceptab e to laboring men, and all Of
was of a judicious nature. 1t did MT go so
far perhaps es many la5oring. men wished.
or as would have been proper, but it was in
the right direction. and II future experience
shows that more is needed to protect the
rights of the laboring man more will be
forthcoming. Mr. Beaton's fear that the
statute passed some years ago to abate the
tramp nuisance may be used as an instru-
ment OF oppression by capitalists is simply
nonsense. The laboring men are vastly in
the majority in this State and both parties
have been counting them very assidnously.
Some of Mr.. Beaton's suggestions regarding
the ballot and the conduct OF elections de.
serve more attention.

1t appears to be practically settled now
that tobacco will figure in the revenue bill
which the majority of the ways and means
committee will report to the House. The
fear ofloss of votes in Virginia and Connec-
ticut has been too strong for the free traders
and they have succumbed. Before the
matter is settled we have little doubt that
the free traders viii make other concessions
and that the bill as finally agreed upon will
be very different measure from that sug-
gested by the President. The Democratic
free trade leaders would no doubt like to go
into tie next campaign on a free trade plat
form, but they fear its effect upon the labor
vote. We shall be very much mistaken if
we do not find them next summer facing
both ways on this subject as they did four
years ago Carlisle and Watterson working
the free trade sentiment and Randall and
McAdoo looking after the protectionists. 1t
is altogether too much to expect that party
that has been lodging on all important
issues for twenty years is going suddenly TO
take definite and decided stand. While it is
very probable thatthe game is so thoroughly
understood now by the people that it may
not work as well as it did four years ago,
nevertheless the chances are that it will be

COAL AND THE TARIFF.
[Boston Transcript
The New York Tribune counters hand
sonely on the Democrats as to the duty on
bituminous coal by showing that in the bill
reported the duty was established at fifty
cents, but the Democratic Senators from
Maryland and West Virginia led a move
nent to raise it tn seyenty-tive cents. and the
votes OF Senators Gr0ome and German of
Mary land, Camden and Davis of West Vir-
ginia, Gail Of Florida and Mcpherson of New
Jersey turned the scale against Republican
opposition" This occurred in 1888. In the
last Democratic tariff, according to the Trib-
unr. btunin0as coal was taxed thirty per
cent, or about 81. ton. Mcpherson, Cor
man and Call are still in the United States
Senate. 1t will ee interesting to watch their
course on tile coal duty when it is again
brought up for consideration.

Colonel Mcdonald, the new Commissioner
of Fisheries. attributes to the work done by
the Commissioner great practical results.
AS an instance be cites the fact that in 1880
the shad catch from Cape Cod to Cape Fear
was only 100000, and declining. In 1881
the Commission commenced the work Of dis
tribution, and in 1885 results began to appear
In that year he catch was 8, 1876 eco, in 1856
5,750,o0o. and in 1887 6,7oO,o00. In round
numbers the increase in the value of the
catch was 100000. The cost Of the work
done by the Commission was less than twenty
thousand dollars yearly. The policy accord
ing to which the work will be carried on in
the future viii be economic rather than
scientific, that is the greatest attention will
be paid to those Investigations which prom
ise to yield practical results like the increase
of the numbers of the Goldfish. The Maine
