THE MILLS BILL PASSED.

The House on Saturday passed the
Mills tariff bill by vote of 1G2 TO 149.
Three Democrats-Sowden of Pennsylva-
mia, Greenman and Bliss of New York,
voted against the bill and Mr.. Randall
was paired with friend of the bill.
Three Republcans-Gear of Ohio, Fitch
of New York and Nelson of Minnesota,
voted for the measure. With these eX-
ceptions all the Democrats favored the
bill and all the Republicans opposed it.
II is. then, party measure and on the
basis of it the Democrats must 60 before
the country.
But the Senate hasn't given its sane
ton to the bill and it is safe to say they
wont, either, Exactly what course they
will pursue is not yet determined upon.
Three things can be done and as many
plans are under consideration by the
Senate finance committee. One is to re-
port bill and press it to passage: a
second, simply to place measure on the
calendar with an elaborate report: and
a third is to report no bill at this session,
but allow the finance committee to keep
up its investigation of the subject
through the summer.

The "City of New York" is the largest
passenger steamer in the world, and the
largest ever built with the exception of
the Great Eastern. Her lines are those
of yacht; she has two screws and indie
pendent boilers and machinery for each
of them, so that the breaking of shaft
will not disable her; while she is fitted
with the electric light and all the latest
appliances for safety and comfort.

PRESS OPINIONS.

Does slight spasm of envy twitch
the midriff of the Hon. William Rufus
Morrison as he sees the Hon. Roger
Quarles Mills successful where he him
self twice failed? We hope not.
The Democratic party owes more to Mr..
Morrison's failure than to the success of
Mr.. Mills. If Mr.. Morrison had got his
bill through in 1888 the Democracy
would have been beaten in 1884.
What the result of Mr.. Mills success
will be remains to be seen. He wanted
to hurt the tariff. 1t will be most fortu-
nate if it does not prove that he has hurt
his party.
At present there is no reason why the
man of Waterloo should envy the laurels
of the man of Corsicana.- New York
Sun.
If the voting in Oregon by the men in
the fields, the factories, the counting
rooms and workshops is any indication
whatever of the voting that will be done
by the like sort of men elsewhere, then
the Democratic party will be overwhem-
ingly beaten. In Oregon the politicians
of neither party knew how these men
were going to vote. They kept their
own counsel, went to the polls with their
ballots, and when the polls were closed
the political managers on both sides were
full of uncertainty and apprehension as
to the result. The count, however, was
amazing-amazing to both sides.- Port
land Oregonian.
The meaning of this step cannot be
misunderstood or underestimated. 1t is
tremendous blow at the whole protec-
tive system and declaration of war that
will be carried on with all the force the
Democratic party can muster, until one
after another our industries are smitten
down and the American laborer is at the
mercy of the foreigner. The argument
which applies to the duty on wool applies
with equal force to the duty on wooens,
on iron and steel, on cottons and on any
other product of American industry. If
the duty on wool is illogical, iniquitous
and vicious" then the duty on woolens
is equally bad and ought to be repealed.
The argument that sustains one sustains
the other. In the same way both fall to
the ground together New York Press.

There was a fine Republican demon

Plumley and Hon. w. p. Dillingham;.
The Troy Times prints interviews with
seven leading manufacturers of Cohoes,
all of whom have hitherto been Demo-

Mrs. j. Ellen Foster, the Iowa woman
lawyer and anti-Prohibition temperance
orator, advocates the formation of a
Woman's national Republican league and
the idea meets with favor.
The Republicans of st. Johnsbury had
several enthusiastic flag raisings and a
public meeting Friday night with par
ade and speeches by Hon. w. P. Smith

The New York Sun can afford no COM
fort to an inquiring correspondent who
suggests that he cannot see any good or
sufficient reason for voting the Demo-
cratic ticket from a protectionist's point
OF view; and says: "Our correspondent
is right. There is no such reason. From
the point of view of protectionist, who
does not consider any other ideas or in
terests than those of the protectionist
philosophy, there is no reason for voting
the Democratic ticket. 1t is not a pro-
tectionist ticket. 1t is not a protection.

FIFTY YEARS OF STEAMSHIPS.

The building of the steamer, "The City
of New York" on which Mr.. Blaine will
sail for home next week, marks a new
era in ocean travel, as well as brings to-
gether in one vessel all the latest i'm.
provements in marine engineering, thus
making her an epitome of what a half
century has wrought in this direction.
For it was in 1898, exactly fifty years
ago last April, that the first steamship,
the Great Western, crossed the Atlantic.
1t took her eighteen days to do it, though,
and the "City of New York" is expected
to accomplish the trip in six or less. The
record has been reduced very gradually
as the following table shows:
