"WE'VE GOT TO DO 1T OR BE DE-
H FEATED."


Congressman Breckenridge, of
Arkansas, a member OF the WAYS
and Means Committee, gives to-
Washington correspondent his views
on the passage of the Mills bill in so
straightforward manner that they
are reproduced here as q corrective
to the dishonest hedging that has
characterized so many of his party.
Such hedging, he said, was to him
annoying:
I 81 am q Free,Trader," said he,
and believe that the freer the trade
the better off is the workingman.
No, the bill passed is not a Free.
Trade bill, but it is a step in that
direction. The only fault / have to
find with it is that the step is not
long enough"
"What kind Of u campaign will
the Democrats carry on this falli'
i"We will carry on an aggressive
one. All our efforts will be directed
to convince the voters that the bill
itself is not Free. Trade. We've got
to do that or be defeated. II we are
defeated it will mean that the mass
of the people prefer high taxes; if
We win it will mean that the Mills
bin as a preliminary step toward
Free. Trade is all right"

The death of General Sheridan
leaves but one of the great leaders Of
the armies Of the Union yet alive.
Gen. Sherman still survives in vigor-
Gus health. Besides the commanders,
Grant, Meade, Mcclellan, Burnside,
Hooker and Sheridan, a host OF less.
es lights in the bright galaxy of gal
liant officers, have gone to the other
shore. A quarter OF a century has
been sufficient to remove from the
ranks Of the living nearly all the
men prominent in the great strug.
gle for the nations life; nor has
time been more gentle in dealing
with the vast armies of men, then so
young, so blithe and so gay, as they
marched and camped and fought.
To-day, their heads silvering, their
steps are becoming slow, and their
ranks are being rapidly reduced.

Why is it that the most brutal
and degraded Of men often have
wives who cling to them in spite of
abuse That it is so that every oh.
server knows, but it is fact that
cannot be explained. There is Mrs.
Bohan, OF New York, whose bus-
banc came home last week in
drunken frenzy, and throwing his
wife on the floor, gouged her only
eye out with bis thumb. The other
eye be had gouged out two years be.
tore in the same way, and he has
ever since been threatening to have
that other eye. Still she had relus-
ed 10 prosecute him, and has con.
tinued to cling to this fiend in human
shape. Even now, reduced to help
less blindness, doubt is entertained
whether she will testify against him,
and 1t may be that, without her tes-
timcDy, he cannot be convicted. He
is held for examination. There
were many threats Of lynching him.

A SERMON BY FATHER TAYLOR

] once heard Father Taylor Meth
odist) preach sermon on the Atone.
ment. 1t was all in a style that no.
body but sailor could understand,
a style that evey sailor could compre-
bend, although q treatise on this
subject from an uptown pulpit would
have been "Greek y to him. This
was one of the passages: "You are
dead in trespasses and sins, and
buried too, down in the lower hold
against the ballast, and you can't
get out, for there is ton of sin on
the main hatch. You shin up the
stanchions and try to get it open,
but yon can't. Your rig is pur-
chase. You get your handspikes,
capstan bars, and watch tackles,
but they are no good. You can't
start it. Then you begin to sing
out for help. You hail all the saints
you think are on deck, but they
can't help you. At last you hail
Jesus Christ. He comes straight
along. All he wanted was to be
asked. He just claps his shoulder to
that ton of sin. 1t rolls off, and
then he says, 'Shipmates, come
outp Well, if you dou't come out,
it is all your own fault"
1t was on the Sunday before a
State election. Briggs was the can
didate of the Wing party, but Faith
er Taylor desired that he be elected
because he was religious man.
This was his prayer: 90 Lord, give
Us good men to rule over us, just
men, temperance men, Christian
men, men who fear Thee, who obey
Thy commandments, men who-BuJ
o Lord, what's the use Of veering
and hauling and pointing all around
the compasss Give us George N.
Briggs for Governor His prayer
was answered on the next day.
Father. Taylor was eloquent, hum
orous, and pathetic by turns. Some
times all these characteristics seem
ed to be merged in one. These and
many others of his traits interested
me, but l loved him because, first
and last and all the time, he was the
sailors friend.-JOhn Goldman. in the
August Century.

A very encouraging sign of the
campaign is the demand for reading
matter by the voters Of the county.
All the tariff documents obtainable
are sought for and handed around /;
and so with newspapers. Our ex-
changes are not numerous enough
to satisfy the demand for papers,
1t shows that the people are sincere
in their search for information. The
people want arguments not wit or

HARRISON AND THE CHINESE.

Our Democratic friends are very
much concerned about Gen. Harri-
sons record on the Chinese question.
They have taken hold of that as the
only point of assault, and from the
frequent reference to it, we conclude
that they will worry over it for a
day or two as something to draw at.
tentlon from their party's position
ON the tariff, and especially the wool
question. 1t is enough to say that
che Chinese question is not live
issue. The policy of the Govern.
ment in relation to Chinese emlgra-
ton is settled, both parties concur
ring in existing legislation. Not
even on the Pacific slope is the
matter mooted, SO secure do they
feel there that the present treaty
stipulations will never be modified
to change the policy of the govern.
ment. But as there will be good
deal of idle talk and a great many
reckless assertions, as to the views
and votes of Gen. Harrison, while
in the Senate, we prefer to give to
the pnblic the facts of the case, in
order to put at rest the wild asser.
tlons and foolish differences of the
more sensational of our political OPP
ponents.
Mr.. Harrison entered the Senate
at the beginlng of the XLVIIth
Congress in 1881, and sat till March
4, 1887. On April ~, 1882, dis
cussion was had in the Senate on
House bill, 1894: GA bill to exc
cute certain treaty stipulations with
the Chinese" Mr.. Harrison made
two brief speeches on that bill, oc-
cupying only few lines of the
Record" and printed at pages 81
359 and 1850 of" The COMPRESSION.
al Record" XLVIIth Congress, first
session. Mr.. Harrison contended |
that as the treaty used the word |
" laborers," it was not in the power
Of Congress to enlarge the meaning
of that word by legislation; that |
whatever the word "laborers - i'm
piled in the treaty, that same word |
would be held to have the same |
meaning in any law that Congress
might pass. He asked Senator Gro
yer, of Oregon, the pertinent ques. |
ton, whether, if he found the pro.
posed law and the existing treaty in |
conflict, he would still persist in |
passing the law and thus "tramp-
ling upon our treaty obligations ?"
To this inquiry Mr.. Grover made no |
reply. Mr.. Harrison's logic was in |
vincible, and it was sustained by the |
Senate. 1t may be added that this
position has since been maintained
by ever President and Secretary of
State down even to Grover Cleve- |
land and Secretary Bayard.-V Val |
