A Chance for Diplomacy.

Our vigorous policy in Behring Sea is
not quite as impressive as was ex-
pected. The British pirate that was
taken red-hsnded with the seal skins
aboard and put in charge of q prize
crew OF one, has had the bardihood to
run away to Victoria. carrying the
prize crew along. This makes new com

Diamond was in accordance with the
law OF nations we ought to demand her
surrender. If We acquIesce in her es-
cape, shall We not confess that we had
no right to seize Ter in the first place ?
As matter Of fact, the incident is
not In itself of great Importance, The
revenue officers are merely trying 10

They Dare Not.

Several Republican COagressmsn and
a few more reckless organs of that patty
are clamoring for a repeal of the Civil
Service Reform law. They deuounce
it as ''humbug'' and frankly avow
their belief in the spoils doctrine.
This is a. least candid. II is possible
to respect such opponents. when one
can feel only contempt for a canting
hypocrit like President Harrison, who
writes plAtitudes In favor of reform be>
fore the election and carries on y car
nivai of spoils after he obtains power.
But for all this bluster of hungry poll
ticians with the courage ot their appe
tite the Republic n party will not repeal
the reform act. And it will not do SO
for the simple reason that ii dare not.

regular session OF Congress without act

family practsed what these men now
preach, and Jay Hubbel openly levied
partisan blackmail on office holders to
make up the Republican corruption
fund. In the fall elections the people
rose up and smote the Republican parry

whiplssh of popular displeasure and
fearful of their future the spoiIsmen and
surplus spenders scurried back to Wash

seriously to propose repeal of the law.

AN exchange says Senator Blair Of
New Hampshire has been interviewed
by the Boston Herald on the question
of tariff reform. Senator Blair is Re-
publican and his views will doubtless
interest the monopolistic organs that

tion of the protective system.

form - was asked by the writer.

a RATHER interesting fact in geo.
grsphy is pointed out by the New York
SJuI, namely that no one knows exactly
in what country two or the famous
mountain SUBMITS Of the world are To-
Gated. Singularly enough in regard IL
the most famous OF all, the geographers
of France aud I,sly cannot agree as to
whether the actual crest of Mount Blanc
is H. one country or the other. The
English also claim that Mount ST.
Elias which we have fondly supposed
20 belong to our possessions in Alaska,
has been travelling east ward during the
last few years. An English explorer,
who visited the mountain two years
ago, asserts hIs reasons for the belief
that the summit is located 10 the ters
ritory Of the British lion and not of the
American eagle while Mr.. Dali. our
leading authority on Alaska, takes the
opposite view.
Perhaps the English view might be
strengthened by claiming, not that the
mountain has been moving eastward
but that our possessions have been NOV
ing westward. Inasmuch as We have
recently claimed that the line of Alas
ka extends over the whole of Bearing
Sea, 1t seems to be possible, as an effort
OF International logic, to assert that
since our Alaska possessions have been
expanded so much to the west, there
should have been a slightly correspond
ing shrinkage on the eastward. 1t
would be just like the obstinate Britons
to object TO our taking in oceans and
mountains at one and the same time.

II was certainly kind ON the part Of
the Republican STATE Convention saws
the Harrisburg Potri9., 70 ingoIm the
public that the grand old party is the
inventor OF high tariff protection-the
author and tinlsher OF monOp0listic
faith. The public should be grateful
Tor the information and if II is satisfied
with the condition" 10 which the in
dustries and business of the country
have teen brought by high tariff pro-
lection, the public ought to give its
support 20 the ticket of The e. o. p. Ii
labor strikes, starving work people, in
! creasing mendicancy, overstocked mar
kets, ruined mills ard factories, in
creased cost of living superinduced by
;aritI-fed trusts, which are among the
direct consequences of the protective
policy, are satisfactory and pleasing &c
the public, the Republican State plat.
form must certainly be in harmony with
public sentiment. Ii not-why. then.
the public cannot be Republican in pol
itics at the next election.
The convention also deserves the
gratitude of the Democracy of the State
for rs deliberate attempt 10 renew Tie
agitation of the license question. II
can hardly be SAID, though, that either
those citizens who have their all en-
barked in the business which the Re
publican party threaten with renewed
difficulties, or those other citizens who
are opposed TO license, ''high or low, -
who call themselves ProhibitiOnists,
will be particularly grateful to the con-
vention for its declaration on this sub
jecU. The Republican resolution is a
deliberate menace, not only to the
wholesale liquor vendors but to the re-
tail liquor dealers also. 1t means that
the next Legislature, if II should be un.
der Republican control, will give
another turn to the screw under which
the liquor dealer has been tortured. At
the same time the resolution insults the
Prohibtrionists by the false pretense
that the Republican party was faithful
to the Prohibition amendment and that
the people have declared in favor of
high" license. In his attempt to ride
two horses the Republican boss has
CALLED the hanks of both and is likely
to be ignominiously dumped between
them.
As for the remainder of the Republi-
can State platform it is mere Heather

gush. It's pretended "arraignmenc''
o: the Democrats is the thinnest poIiti-
cal Cruel that ever was served up as q
tonic for a sick stomach of an aiIing
morlhund party. Its prolix eulosy of
the National administration is as void
OF heartiuess as it is fuisOme and turgid.
Its attempt TO make capital out of the
State Administrations management of
the movement for the relief OF the suf-
ferers by the flood is as impolitIc as it
IS wanting in good taste. To perfect
such a platform it only remained for the
convention to add another plank ::
Resolved, that the wicked Democrats
are responsible for the food. Indeed it
Is rather remarkable that this grand
and noble thought DID not occur TO
the author OF the wonderful work.

The Result OF Corners.

The report Of Consul General CharI-
ton III. Wey on the Russian cereal trade.
gives official notice TO the fact which
has often been referred to in these
columns, that every corner or combiua-
tion to artihcially raise the price of
wheat, has stimulated exports from
Russia TO the consuming markets of
Europe. Not one dollar IS added TO the
wealth of America by such juggling
with the great staples. but the trade
has IN every such case been handed over
To Russia OF India. a large share of
Rpssia'S wheat exports is shown to be
due 10 the operations of the Chicago
gamblers.
This Is the inevitable result Of man
/ ipulations in any staple. In staples like
wheat and petroleum. of which large
amounts are exported, the idea Is a
favorite one among the cOTnereTs aud
monopOlists, that as foreign consumers
must pay The advance. this country
should approve rather than prohibit the
artificial enhancement of prices. But
the fact is that foreign consumers do
not pay the advance. In The grain
trade The result is that domestic pro-
duceIs lose the trade. In petroleum
the monopoly Of the Standard has en-
ablsd IL TO put the price on exported
petroleum lower than the price which il
makes the people OF the United States
pay for their light ; and this reduced
price, made TO meet foreign competition,
has been speciously cited as an evidence
that the freedom OF the Standard from
competition has not prevented reduc-
tion of prices.
The fact is that corners and combina-
tions are invariably at the expense Of
the public. Tha. does not trouble the
manipulatOrs at all. They do not care
whose money they get, so they get it.
But IL Is we'll tn At the people should see
the real effect of these artificial barriers

consumers and PittSGlrg
