4 VALUABLE PRECEDENT.

The new Commissioner OF Public Works is
cvncing remarkable capacity for getting rid OF
de pertinent employees whose political affiliations
are not agreeable 20 him. For moment IL looked
as II the statute projecting war veterans from in
stantancouS and lrrccOverabe dccaptatlon m, hit
interfere with his plans, but he rose superior 20
that obstruction yesterday In an original and
ingenious manner The place OF Henry Dyer,
janitor Of the First District Civil Court, was
wanted for Patrick Callahan, but inasmuch as
Dyer had fought for his country, Ind blcd for IL
for ught we know, and had certainly run the
risk Of dying for IL, the necessity arose that Mr.
GirOy should show cause for his displacement.
For man Of sighter intellectual resources this
ght have proved somewhat inconvenicnt OBJ
staclc in the pa-h OF Mr. Callnhhn's ambition TO
the municipality, but 10 gave the Com
missioner no anxiety Whatsoever. Sc soon es the
formalities OF hearing had been gone through
with, he made the memorable decision that mas
much the ianItor's only duty was 70 buy coal
and wood for the court there was no hardship or
improperly in permitting various minor delin-
quencies 20 deprive him Of that dnecure, and the
ablc-bodied and lusty Callahan was therefore
plainly entitled 20 reign in his stead. The in
ference is that II the veteran Dyer had been
Collector Of the Port or a Chief Justice, there
would have been nothing TO say, but being only
buyer Of coal and wood the mere fact Of his
having served In the war should not be allowed
to stand IN the way Of n man who had never
so much ~ EnuiIed the battle afar of, but 70 whom
81 900 n year and nothing 10 do seemed none the
less attractive on that account
This Is n precedent which Is sure 10 he regarded
with great r-spccr by the Commissioners colleagues
and succcs>ors It Is novel, practical and OF ex-
cccdngly wide application. II makes q handle
which can bc inserted with ease into oil the
official axes in the city.

gard TO the tariff. The Standard Oil owes moth
inc 10 the tariff, nor the Cotton Oil Trust' ana
the Sugar Trust secretly consorted WIN mr'
Mills and his Dark Lantern Committee IN ths
preparation Of their Free-Trade BILL and helped
to get ID votes 1t has been further shown re-
neatedly that trusts are more numerous and
powerful in England, where no tariff helps than
in this country. The very nature Of these COM
binations is such that an effective duty Tor the
announcement of home manufacture or produc-
ton, tends to break them down and destroy
them
Nevertheless, the attempt has been made to
control through trusts certain branches OF in
dustrv which have been promoted by protective
dutios OF the salt case, THE TRIBUNE has
spoken frankly, and while that is but an off,
shoot Of the Salt Trust formed and now operat-
ing in free-trade England, the eXiSkence OF
protective duties here was supposed 70 be one
of tho elements Of advantage TO those who
planned the arrangement. 1t IS represented
that White Lend Trust is in process Of forma-
ton, though accounts published indicate NOT
much probability Of the success of it's promoters
But when these or any other combinanons at
tempt to make protective duties the instruments
Of private greed they declare war upon tho
system Of protection and have no right to e&-
pect the aid Of Proteodonists.
The thing 10 be done, when protective duties
arc in fact, used as a means Of restricting pro-
duction and denying the benefits OF protection
to consumers, is DO break down such combina-
tons as thoroughly and speedily as possible.
A repeal or reduction of duties may not always
be the surest or quickest way to attain that end,
for, as a rule, the duty itself does the smashing.
It's very purpose is to stimulate more home COM
petition in production, and in nearly every in
stance thus far it has 80 multiplied the cOmpeti-
ton, and so encouraged capital to enter the
lists against the combination, that the public
interests have triumphed through its agency.
Where that is the shortest and sureSt road, ID
is the one genuine ProtectOnistS will prefer,
but wherever producers succeed in using pro
tective duty for the defeat Of its beneiicent and
patriotic aims, IL is strictly in accord with the
principles If protection TO thwart them, and
smash their combination, il necessary, by re-
moving or reducing tho duties so perverted.

of disparagement to the political group Oh reei-
ties of which be was once a conspicuous figure
They were not able, he remarked TO perform
apy useful function in public life, since their
motives were suspected, their criticism resented
and their aid grudgingly received BY the two
main narties of the day. This is inevitably the
fate Of a third party formed of seceders from
one political army who are reluctant to wear
the uniform and to follow the tactics OF the
other camp. The Liberal Unionists are Con-
seryatiyes at heart, Mr.. Chamberlain alone ex-
cepted but so long as they call themselves Lib
erals and profess to be more progressive and
enlightened in their political views than their
allies, their influence in the constituencies, II
not in Parliament, will steadily decline At
the same time, they will continue 10 be more
obnoxious TO the Liberals themselves than the
Conservatives Like the American MugwumpS,
who became Democrats while aSseveating that
they were better and purer Republicans than
those whose principles and cause they had aban-
doned and betrayed they will excite the resent
mont and hostility of both political parties and
speedily deprive themselves OF the opportunity
Of exerting any influence whatsoever in public
life

TRUSTS Us. PROTECTION.

1t was not carelessly stated by THE TRID-
UNE," as the Mugwump organ, "The New Yorb
Times" asserts, that trusts which use protective
duties as instruments of private greed" are
hostile TO the principles and purposes Of pro-
lection. 1t was also stated with truth, though
the Mugwump journal denies it, that the Sugar
Trust exists and EFFORTS money from the peo
pie without the slightest aid from the tariff /"
But readers remember that THE TRIBUNE
earnestly advocated the entire removal Of tho
duty on sugar, and the substitution Of bounty
ON sugar Of domestic production.
The false representations Of 81 The New DIRK
Times" on this subject appear because they
suit a dishonest purpose, namely, TO persua dr.
people that trusts are the offspring Of protec-
ton, and that Protectionists defend and desiru
to perpetuatc them. The truth is that the con
spiouous and well-known trusts are all Demo-
cratic in management. and operate without no

NIP DlCEY Is SIRYL.

Mr.. Dicey has been one Of the most indie
fatigable publcists among the Liberal-UnlonistS
in England On the morrow Of tho general
elections in 1856 he exerted all the influence
which he had acquired as one Of the most
logical opponents of Home Rulein favor OF open
coalition between his faction Of the Liberal
party and the Conservatives. His counsel was
not needed, Lord Harrington and Mr. Cham
berlain uniting in warning their followers that
they must furnish the country with signal
proof of their disntercStedncss by declining
Office. Mr. Dicey, in the current number OF
THE Nineteenth Century" puts his Liberal
Unionist friends in the position Of Tarquin
after he had declined to purchase the Sibylline
books. They can still make terms with their
allies, but they will have to pay more for the
privilege; and if they again decline TO coaleSce
with the Conservatives, they will have in tho
end to pay yet more dearly for what will be
worth less to them. He contends that the union
Of the two parties will have to take place i'm
mediately before or after the next general cleo
tons, and that it will be statesmanlike for the
leaders to anticipate what is inevitable, and to
arrange at once for open fusion between those
united already in well-nigh everything except
mama
1t is not probable that Mr.. Diceys second plea
for the effacement of the Liberal-U niOnists will
be more successful than the first MIR. Cham
berlain blocks the way and from his good
fortune in seating the younger Bright for
Central Birmingham he will be unprepared to
make any concessions TO his less democratic
associates Lord Harrington and the titled
Wings who were formerly Liberals would not
he out Of their element in the Conservative
marty, but Mr. Chamberlain and his cotere Of
Radicals do not belong there. and since they
do not see their way TO reioin the Liberal ranks
they will resist every attempt to wipe out the
third party, which has afforded them temporary
shelter for three years Mr.. Dicey in the char
acter Of Sibyl will have to sound another sum-
mons for the political trading which he is
anxious to bring about, and the third call will
probably be deferred until the eve Of the gem
eral elections But he is undoubtedly right in
declaring that his associates will have 10 pay
dearly for the delay. Every year their political
assets are diminishing in value. A coalition
could have been effected in 1888 on the basis
Of common party led by common leaders. A
coalition in 1892, if the present Parliament
| survives so long will be the winding up of a
bankrupt political estate
