Eoraker'S Bad Break.

Governor Foraker was neatly hoist with his own petard" in one of his recent speeches. He has been going through Ohio telling the pathetic story of Sally Ann Bradley, who lost husband and two sons in tho war for tho Union, was re- duced to destitution, and went to the poor house because President Cleveland vetoed q bill giving her a beggarly pension of SIP month. Dressed up with Forakcr's rhetoric, it made a telling narrative, and the governor could count with precision tho point at which his sympathetic audi ences would break out, For shamel for shamc" and then he would add, with great unction: Il say for shame also"
 Tho story took well until one day last week, when Foraker reached Unionville, O., and began to work up to the grand climax of the poor womans suffering and destitution. To his surprise instead of tears he was greeted with yells of Come of, "''You're way of, ," What are you giv- ing us?" and other dcrisive exclamations. Unionville is the home of the Bradleys and Sally Ann Bradley lives there with her son, who was appointed three years ago postmaster of the town by President Cleveland. She has never been in desti- tuition or in the poorhouse, and is amply provided for by her sons. They did not think she needed it. The family are all Democrats, and the two surviving sons will vote for Cleveland and Thurman in Springfield Republican.

The Prospect in New York.

While the New York Herald has, with eommendable frankness, laid before Its readers several letters addressed person ally to the editor expressing the belief that the Republicans In the interior of this state have been making a more effect i've canvass than the Democrats. it pub lished whole page of correspondence full of encouragement for the Democrats. According to these latest advices the situ- ation as a whole leaves little hope for the Republican ticket. If the cores spondents of The Herald have not misjudged the field we should say that the Republicans will do we'll if they reach Harlem bridge with plurality of 5O.OOO in their favor, as an offset to which there will be the Democratic majorities in the counties of Richmond, Queens, Kings and New York. AS it is reasonably certain that these strongholds will give an aggregate Demo cratic majority of not less than e0,O0O, 1t seems to follow from The Herald's dis. patches that Harrison and Morton will be beaten by net plurality of 30,000 at least.-Brooklyn Citizen.

Thurnlan's Hard Sense.

Judge Thurmans practical sense and clear logic make short work with the stock sophistries and t1imsy fallacies of the monOpolists.
 At Fort Wayne he appealed directly to tho common sense of the workingmen with the question: Why is it, if the effect of high tariff be to lower the price of commodities and to raise wages, that the rich manufacturers hire a lobby at Wash ington and contribute fiat" to campaign funds to prevent a reduction of duties? Do these employers really want low prices for their products and high wages for their workmen?
 At Peru the sturdy old campaigner punctured another absurdity, Referring to the protectionist claim that the GUS toms duties are not tax on American consumers, but are paid by the foreigner for the privilege of bringing his goods to this market" Judge Thurman asked: ''If this is the case, why don't they abolish all other taxes and collect all the revenues from these foreignersT'

THAT SUGAR TRUST.
Row the Republican Senate Bill Pro-
 tcCts It.

How the Republican Senate Bill Pro- tccts It.
 Col. Weber showed by unanswerable facts that the sugar schedule of the Mills bill was framed i'll the interest of the sugar trust, and at the instigation of Mir. Havemeyer, the head of that trust. The senate bill is framed with the view of reducing the burden of taxation, and will relieve the people of two and a half times as much as the Mills bill will. These are the cold facts in the case.-Commercial.
 The most frigid fact in the case is this The Republican senate bill gives to the sugar trust even a greater advantage than does the existing sugar schedule under which the trust was organized and is maintained; whereas the Mills bill re- duces that advantage.
 The existing duties on all sugars, ex- cept raw sugars, are practically prohibi- tory. Even grocery sugars cannot be imported, owing to the high duty imposed by a Republican congress. The existing schedule was adjusted in a conference committee in 1883 under the very eye of the Havemeyers and other sugar barons. These sugar trust men are utterly indif- ferent to the rate of duty on raw sugars as long as the rates on the higher grades arc so high as to prohibit the importation of those grades and thus give them the absolute command of the home market, as is the case under the existing sugar schedule.
 And now what has the senate finance committee done? It is almost incredible, yet it is true, that, instead of making a larger reduction of the duty on the higher grades than on the raw sugars ill order to reduce the advantages enjoyed by the trust under the existing schedule, the committee has actually reversed this and has made larger reduction on the raw the trust! Right ill the face of the pop sugar combination the Republican sen ators actually increase the power of the combination This is one of the most ex- traordinary features of the tariff jugglery reported by the senate committee.
 Tho sugar schedule of the Mills bill, on the other hand, makes a larger reduction of the duties in the higher grades than on tho raw sugars, thus clearly and pur- posely diminishing the advantages enjoyed by the trust under the existing Republi- can law.
 We arc glad to see that The Commer- cial has finally come out openly with an expression of opinion that there is direct relation between trusts and tariff taxa tion. It virtually repudiates a favorite l protectionist assert an that tho tariff has nothing to do with trusts Now, in all sincerity, we respectfully ask our esteemed contemporary why 1t shows more favor and friendliness to the bolt trust men and the steel trust men, for instance. than to the sugar refiners?- Buffalo Courier.

"A POLITICAL REVOLUTION"
How James G. BIaine's Boomerang Looks
 at Home.

HOW James G. Bla1ne'S Boomerang Looks
 at Homo.
 In the light of the official returns of the September vote in MT. Blaine's own ward, city and county, his now famous dispatch, ''1t is almost political revolution" seems funny indeed, as perusal of the follow ing, taken from the records of the state house in Augusta, will show. MT. Blaine is a resident in Ward One, in the city of Augusta and county of Kennebec. In September, 1884, the vote in his ward was: Republican, $40; Democratic, 159; Repub- hcan majority, 191. The city vote stood: Republican, 1,267; Democratic, 621; Re- publican majority, 643. The county vote stood: Republican, 7,129; Democratic, 4,3S4; Republican majority, 3,595.
 In 1888 Mir. Blaine's ward gave: Repub- Hcan votes, 322; Democratic, 2O2; Repub- lican majority, 120; Republican majority in 1884, 191; loss in Mir. Blaine's ward, 6l. The city this year cast: Republican votes. 1,231; Democratic, 794; Republican majority, 437; Republican majority in 1884, 643; loss in MT. Blafne's city, 206
 The county this year cast: Republican votes, 7,659; Democratic, 4,931; Repub- lican majority, 2, FPS; Republican ajority in 1884, 3,595; loss in Mir Blaine's county, S67s
 But three counties in Maine equal Ken
 
 duces more hay. In orchard products and as farming county generally 1t is equal ed by only two or three counties in the state. It is also one of the largest manu- featuring counties. It has more sash and blind factories, moro agricultural imple- ment and edge tool manufactories than any other county in the state. Only one other county equals Kennebec in number of wooden mills. Androscoggin and York counties only exceed 1t in number of cot ton mills. Only one county equals its granite production. In fact, there is no other county in Maine where the varied industries affected by the tariff issue are more fully represented.
 There is no county where Republican political machinery Is in better working order. Ia county, city and ward the sole issue was the tariff, and on that issue the Democrats made net gain in each. No county or city in Maine heard so many speeches as Kennebec. Kennebec county and the fishermen received the chief care of the Democrats, The fishermen towns gave net Democratic gains and so does Mir. Blaine's county, city and ward. Portland.

A Hard Conundruul,

A Protectionist parrot keeps repeating that in the Mills bill ''the duty is left on sugar at a rate 22 per cent. higher than the sugar producers said in 1882 would yield them a reasonable profit" The Mills bill reduces the duty on sugar 20 per cent. Why did the Republican tariff revisers of 1883 leave the duty on sugar 42 per cent. higher than was needed2 Was it because they believed in over protec- tion, or simply because they love to spend a surplusS-New York World.

A Real and Democratic Navy.

Secretary Whitney is rapidly getting the navy into good fighting condition. He Is reconstructing and harmonizing it. It is to be regretted that he did not succeed in doing the same service for the Democ- racy of New York. It would have been a good thing to have rid the party of some of the old, useless hulks and to have launched young, vigorous candidates iron clad In union and armored with party en- thusiasm. The Democracy of New York Is as much in need of reconstruction as the navy of the United States was when Mir. Whitney took the helm.-New York World

An Esteemed Citizen Passes Away
After Long Illness.
The many friends of Mr.. John w. Reilly
will regret to learn of his death, which took
place at st. Josephs Infrmary on Monday
after a lingering illness of many months
duration. The deceased was for many
years a partner in the large drayage
firm of Moran q Reilly, and subse-
quently in business for himself. Several
years ago, while removing heavy safe
into Stoddard's upper range, the front
platform of that block suddenly
gave way, precipitating many persons to
the alley below, killing and injuring many,
and seriously hurting Mr.. Reilly, from
which injuries he never totally recovered.
He served faithfully during the war in
the quartermaster's department of MERGERS
brigade, and though of quiet and reserved
disposition, he rad endeared himself to a
large circle of friends by his many manly
traits.
He was brother of Mrs NJ j. Doyle and
Mrs j. A. Feuger, and leaves wife and
three children to mourn his loss.
His funeral will take place from the resi-
dence of Mr.. John A. Feuger on Charlton
street, at 10 O'Clock this morning.

SECTIONAL DRAWINGS.
Revised Plans of the New Hotel Not
Yet Furnished by the Architect.

Revised Plans of the New Hotel Not
Yet Furnished by the Architect.
Mr.. H. NJ. Conner, p esident of the new
hotel building committee, was asked yester-
day how the enterprise is progressing. Mr.
Conner said that the revised plan has not
yet been received from the architect, but
that about twelve blue sheets, showing
some of the sectional drawings, had been
received. From these a very imperfect
idea can be drawn of what the building will
be. In fact, Mr.. Conner said that he
had not examined them very closely,
preferring to await the complete
detail drawings of the entire structure
When these are received Mr.. Conner says
that their acceptance will have prompt
consideration, with a view to the building of
the new hotel at the earliest practicable time,
and that as soon as the plan is determined
upon bids will be advertised for at once for
erecting the edIfice The committee has
already advertised for the removal of the
old barracks building, with view to having
the site clear by the time the plans have
been passed upon.
