The Tunnel,


a dispatch from ottawa to the De-
troit Free Press says:
The st. Clair Tunnel Company are
now actively engaged in the construc-
ton of the tunnel between Sarnia and
Port Huron. Mich. a portion Of the
machinery and material used in the
construction of the work will be obtain
ed in the states. but not to any great
extent, consisting principally of pump
ing machinery, paper tanks, and the
shields used in carrying on the work of
excavating. The expensive part of the
material. consisting chiefly of cast
iron plates for lining the tunnel. will be
made in Canada, and it is estimated
that 10000 pounds of this article will
be required before the work is conclud-
ed. The Treasury Depart nent has tie
cided that on material manufactured
in Canada no duty will be charged
The Canadian customs authorities have
made the same concessions regarding
bridg' material coming from the States
and will not levy the duties upon such
articles, as they did when the Interna-
tional bridge at Niagara and the Sauli
Ste Marie bridge were in course OF
construction 1t is estimated that the
work on the st. Clair tunnel, If carried
out, will involve IA expenditure of 4
quarter IL million of dollars.

SHERMAN'S CAMPAIGN.
1t Is Being Rushed vigorously,
Quietly, and With Discretion.

1t Is Being Rushed vigorously, but
Quietly, and With Discretion.
Colonel Lemert, of Bucyrus, who is an
agent of the Standard Oil Company, and is
said TO be son the wing' in behalf of Sena-
tor Sherman's Presidential interests, has
been in Washington for several days, and
has been In communication with Represen-
tatives Thompson and Pugsley and Captain
j. G. Donaldson Colonel Lemert went to
see the Senator to-day, accompanied by the
other faithful adherents named above, and
took his departure from the city in the after
noon.
Mr.. Sherman's campaign, says the Gin
cinnat Enquirer, is progressing discreetly,
but with an activity that occasionally ex-
hibits some of it's footprints. There are
clear indications of active work to obtain an
approximately solid Southern delegation
for Mr. Sherman. Malone has charge of
the boom in Virginia, and Senator Riddle
berger is quoted as authority for the state
ment that he has command of an ample fund
OF money. At the same time Senator Rid
dleberger says it is impossible to send a
Virginia delegation to the Chicago conyen-
ton united on any one man, excepting, per-
haps, for Blaine; then there would be no
trouble in doing it. Mr.. Sherman, he saws,
is Republican, but not of the kind that
Southern Republicans as body would sup
port for the Presidency
The Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate is
said to have charge of the Senator's inter-
ests In North Carolina, and 1t is intimated
that especial attention has been given to the
financial wants Of Republican papers in
that State

The Tariff : Discussion.

Commenting editorially ON the Tariff bill
OF the Ways and Means Committee, the
New York Times says:
1t is upon the development of public opin-
ion that the fate Of the bill will depend in
the House. 1t is not at ali impossible that
that development may be such as TO compel
sufficient number of Republicans to repu-
date the party policy TO carry the bill But
whether or not this be the case, the matter
viii not be settled by the defeat of this
measure. The debate that will go on in
Washington, in the press, and all over the
country viii have it's effect So far, since
the question has fairly become one Of Ma
tional politics, every movement with refer
ence to It has strengthened the reform
sentiment
The latest-the message Of the President
las il was the most courageous and def
mite, was also the most effective There has
not been for a quarter of a century any
such forciblc and practical arousing of pub
lie attention as followed that message. The
agitation of the Tariff bill will cause advance
In the same direction The bin will plainly
be made the standard of the declarations Of
the Democratic convention. and the Dems.
cratic party will 90 TO the country on the
principles of this measure Then. unless
the Republicans very seriously modify
their policy, we shall have very decisive
expression of public opinion To that the
Administration and its supporters can look
forward with eoniidence.-K y. Times.

Republican Delay.

Why, asks the Cincinnati Enquirer, should
the Republican Senate of the United States
have permitted so many days to elapse
without passing the measure which met
with such earnest approval in the House,
authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury
to apply the surplus money now in the Treas
ury, and such surplus money as may here
after be in the Treasury and not otherwise
appropriated, or so much thereof as he may
consider proper, to the purchase or re-
demption of United States bonds. Can it
be that the Republican managers in the
Senate have become so patriotic that they
will pass no measure coming from the
Democratic partyi Or do they wish to keep
the surplus revenue accommodating in the
Treasury until the country goes to bank
ruptcy through shrlnkage of the currencyi
These are interesting questions.

recent issue Of the Boston Journal curious
ly illustrates the antagonism of principles
now found in the Republican party. First
there is quoted from one good Republican
organ, the st. Louis Glo5e-Dcmocrat, a hearty
commentator of Senator Hawley "as an
able and progressive statesman who
would be good man for the Republicans
to nominate this year," and little below,
from another good Republican organ, the
Albany Journal, what the Journal itself pro-
nounces " the simple TRUTH" viz, hearty
commentator Of the Blair bill, with the
statement that it is only opposed by 'the

Mr.. Litter should RESIGN.

The resignation of Mr.. David T. Littler,
OF Illinois, from the Republican National
Committee is in order, facetiously says the
New York Times. He is reported to have
said to a committee of the House: "The
Commission ION Pacific railroads, of which
Mr.. Littler is a member) has talked the
question all over with the President of the
United States, and we found him wise,
clear-headed, business-like man. If you
will follow the suggestions of the President
in his message on the subject you will ar
rive at a harmonious and satisfactory con-
clusion." This is the rankest heresy and
contrary to the Gospel of ST. James, as
preached by the authorized interpreters
thereof. Every loyal Republican knows
that President Cleveland is a rare COM
pound of ignorance, hypocrisy, selfishness
and cheap political cunning. To doubt it,
much more to deny it, is enough to ruin a
mans standing in that eminently select
body known as the straight-out Republican
party, and certainly no man with Mr.. Lit
tiers indiscretion of speech should be per-
mitted to officially aid in the process now
going on of making the party steadily more

cARlIsLE.s 1ARlEE VIEWS
Favoring Cheap Food. Clothing and Too
Rather than Chem Tobacco ana Roar

Favoring Cheap Food, Clothing and Tools
Rather than Cheap Tobacco and Beer.
Speaker Carlisle never grants an inter-
view of-hand, but he has been induced to
answer few questions in writing. In re-
gard TO the chances for tariff legislation by
this Congress he says: |" think bill to
reduce the tariff viii be passed during the
present session Of Congress. A consldera-
BILE number of articles now dutiable will be
placed ON the free list, and the rates viii be
reduced on many others. As far as posi-
BILE under the circumstances, taxes will be
abolished or reduced on the raw materials
used in our manufacturing industries and
on the necessaries of life. Free raw mate
rial viii greatly reduce the cost of produc-
ton, and thus benefit the manufacturer and
the laborer, as well as the other consumers
Of manufactured goods.
If combinations and trusts could only be
broken up and prohibited, so as TO allow the
natural law of supply and demand to COM
pei free and fair competition in the produc-
ton and sale of commodities, free raw ma
terial, even without corresponding re-
duction of duty ON the finished product
would afford large measure of relief to
the people. 1t is evident, however, that so
long as high tariff is retained on finished
articles those combinations to limit the
amount of production and arbitrarily MAIN
tain high prices can not be prevented, and
therefore free raw material would not of
itself be sufficient When a raw material
is made free there should be also a reduc-
ton of duty on the articles made from it,
and this, / think, Will be the policy of the
Democratic party in Congress. The prin-
cipal contest WI be over the question of
free WOOL and a corresponding reduction of
taxes on wo5len goods. These two changes
alone, II they can be made, will not only
give the people cheaper clothing hereafter,
but will reduce the revenue S12,OO0,OO0 or
S15,OO0OOO per annum without injury to in
dustry."
"Will there be reduction of internal
taxes?"
There is no substantial reason, in my
opinion, for the repeal of any part of the tax
on tobacco, but there is a demand for it in
some parts Of the country, and it may be
conceded as compromise. The people need
cheap food, cheap clothing, cheap medicines,
cheap books and cheap tools and nipple
ments to work with, much more than they
need cheap tobacco, cheap whisky or cheap
beer. The Government must have rev.
enue, and believe the best way to raise it
is the imposing of taxes on luxuries i'm
ported from abroad and Injuries produced
and consumed at home, leaving the real
necessities as free from taxation as posi-
BILE. Still, all legislation is the result of
compromise and concession, and am will
ing to agree to the repeal of the tobacco tax
IL we can thereby secure the necessary re-
lief and reform in the tariff

by the President will be adoptedl''

eREsHAM's CHANCES.
His Nomination Only Possible as a Coz
promise Candidate.

His Nomination Only Possible rs a Com
promise Candidate.
The endeavor made by certain of Judge
Gresham's friends in Indiana to prevent
Harrison from securing united delegation
to the Chicago convention from that State
may harm Harrison, but can not help Ores
ham. The effort makes the Judge too OBJ
viously candidate, whereas his nomination
will come, if at all, because he is not can
didate. His position upon the bench, his
best interest in the convention both demand
that he shall not enter the canvass for the
nomination. Personally, says the Chicago
Herald, he makes no movement, but the at
tempt in Indiana, which must necessarily
fail since General Harrison is the favorite
Of the machine, will be attributed widely to
personal interference and he will be in the
disadvantageous position of candidate who
has not been able to secure the backing Of
his own State. Under ordinary circum-
stances this would dispose as effectually Of
his chances as Flowers were terminated
four years ago when he failed to carry the
delegation from New York.
The situation in the convention which will
make Judge Gresham's nomination possible
has nothing to do with previous contests for
delegations. 1t will be an outcome of the
WEAKNESS and vexation attending long bal.
loting without result. 1t will spring from
the clash Of many delegations supporting
open and avowed candidates and finding
union upon any one of them impossible.
That will be the Gresham opportunity un-
less he has been disqualified for it by Bit
ter and losing fight against Harrison, justi-
flying the opinion of sagacious politicians
that the antagonism thus created would be
fatal to Republican success in State of
major Importance.
1t is the situation which will make either
Blaine or Gresham the nominee; one for
which Blaine consciously or unconsciously
is admirably prepared, and for which the
injudicious proponents of Gresham in
Indiana are foolishly Gripping him.
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1888-04-11

that is far from being a hindrance to his
candidacy.
Nobody with the least claim to political
sagacity can question the Presidents re-
nomination, provided he lives and does not
refuse to stand again. So strong is he with
his party in all parts of the country that it
is entirely probable that the National Demo-
cratic convention will not contain single
delegate opposed to his denomination. AS
to the kind of delegation which New York
State will send, an indication was given
yesterday when the Democrats of the town
of Watertown, which we believe is the
home of Roswell Pettibone Flower, having
assembled in caucus to choose delegates to
the First Assembly district convention of
Jefferson County, adopted unanimously q
resolution expressing the wish of the
voters for the denomination of Mr.. Cleve-
land, and instructed the delegates to use
their votes and influence to that end."-N.
