Trusts.

There is no more disgracetul episode in
Clevelands administration than the appoint
ment of Whitney to be Secretary of the Navy.
1t was in pursuance with a corrupt bargain
with Standard Oil Payne, who furnished
large sum of money to assist in securing the
election of Cleveland. The whole affair
reeks with corruption. Payne was charged
with buying his way into the Senate with his
great wealth and afterward with buying
seat in the Cabinet for his son-in-law. Per-
haps the failure Of the Democrats to .efer to
the Standard Oil Trust may be attributed to
tender regard for Cleveland, which will
not permit them to remind him that that trust
is the most monstrous in the country and
that its existence is in no wise due to protec-
ton, nor its maintenance dependent upon a
high or low tariff San Francisco Chronicle.

The New York World is the old line Dem

Cleveland who represent this same old
Democracy.
at will be said of Mr.. Harrison that he
is nominated for his name. But this is idle
talk, He is available, without reference to
the honorable positions filled by his ancestors.
In the first place he is prominent citizen of
doubtful State, and had the unanimous sup
port of its delegates. He has a good soldier
record; is thoroughly equipped lawyer, and
has experience as a statesman. He has al
ways acted as straight party man, and his
honesty has never been questioned. More
over he has been practical civil service re-
former, and an extreme protectionist. There
are two reasons why his candidacy is fortu-
nate. 1t puts the tariff issue into clear cut
shape, and it removes all danger of person
alities in the campaign. The World op
poses Mr.. Harrison on principle, but, if
elected, he would make an honorable and ac-
ceptable Pre- sident."

Mr.. Froude, the English historian,
writes heartily, giving his adherence to
the new organization, the British Union,
the aim of which is to accomplish COM
mercial federation of the British colonies
by means of preferential customs duties,
which shall secure free trade within the
empire, combined with protection against
foreign competition. Mr.. Froude de-
clars that he has no faith in any scheme
of political federation SO long as no ma
terial inducement is offered to the Colo
MES. If any real hope for commercial
union is given them, he regards the work
as done. 1t is not too late, he saws, to
save Canada; but it is as sure as the null
tiplication table that unless Great Britain
offers Canada such union as the Ameri-
cans will offer her, the dominion will be
lost to Great Britain.

Rampant Sectionalism-

Collate the provisions of the Mills bill re-
garding CERTAIN special northern and southern
products in tabular form, and the result is
suggestive to say the least. Like this, for
instance
Northern lumber. no duty

Northern salt no duty

Northern brick, no duty
Northern tin plate, no duty
Northern lime, no duty
Louisiana sugar, 6S per cent duty
Southern rice, 1904 per cent duty
To this list might be added bituminous
coal on which the Mills bill retains the duty
not because it is mined in some parts of
Pennsylvania, but because it is common
throughout several southern states; pig iron,
on which the duty is retained, not because it
is northern product, but because it is be-
ginning I'd be made in half dozen southern

GOOD OLD FREE TRADE TIMES
Exclaims the Hartford Post.

Talk about the 'good old times" of low
tariff Here is an instance A man who has
been in the mercantile business in an interior
town in Illinois over thirty years, recently
looked over his old accounts, and found
therein some interesting facts for tariff re-
formers. For example. in 1860 customer
is charged 1915 for barrel Of salt, and
credited so cents per day for two days work.
Salt was then on the free list, and labor was
on free trade basis. In that same year
brown muslin sold for IL, l2t and Is cents
per yard; present prices, 6 to cents. Axes
were then sold at Sl.25 to $3.50; better
implement can now be bought at 81. The
entire list ranged from 20 to 100 per cent
above latter-day prices. Is the country
"hankering" for a return of these good old
timesl"
