DOUBTFUL ADVERTISING.

The corn palace train that Sioux City
will send to Washington will he novel
feature in Inauguration ceremonies. 1t
speaks we'll for the enterprising spirit
of the Sioux City people, and yet we
question whether as an advertisement
it will be worth the $4,000 that is to be
expended in fitting up the train. Every
body in the world knows that Iowa can
raise corn, and big corn at that. So that
beyond the uniqueness of the exhibition,
and the interest it will afford curiosity
seekers at the national capital, we doubt
whether the corn palace train will be of
any special value. 1t was suggested at
one time to have ST. Paul fit up an ice
palace train to be sent to the Inaugural
ton, but the business sense of the city
was against it. When we can induce
people TO come here to see our ice pal
aces the city is benefited. Just so it is
with our Iowa neighbour. The thing to
do is TO induce people to go to Sioux
City to see its corn palaces. and not be

THE SUGAR TAX.

OF course it is quite consistent with
protectionist doctrine to offer bounty
to growers of sugar, but there is some
dif{seuIty in fitting up the facts to fit the
claim that the price of protected prod
ucts is ultimately cheapened by protec-
ton, and the home supply is thereby
made to meet the home demand. The
consumers have been paying s30.OOO,0OO

while, but the producers have not i'm

After all, while possessing good

Eugene HAY has fine command of
everyday English, and the ability to
say singing thing in a calm manner,

Freeman Lane is rough, speaks like an
English hunter rides; his voice raspS,
and while certain of attracting atten-
ton, is unpleasant to the ear. The style
of speaking which Judge Fleming has
command OF can bear no better name
than "knock down." Itcomes slowly and
deliberately. Every word is clean-cut,
and generally of Saxon origin. The
pauseS between his sentences are long,
and his auditors have no difficulty in
catching his meaning. John III. Ives
expresses himself as mnch with his
head as his mouth. He has fashion of
shaking it when he speaks just as if,
bull-fashiOn, he intended to charge upon
his hearers and compel acquiescence in
his views. Col. Graves is the posseSsor
of a monotone in his voice not unpleas-
ant, but still lacking elements of change
which an orator must possess.
For this lack of orators or oratorical
ability Donnelly will be missed. Not
alone in what he said, but for the COM
mand through his voice which he had
over his auditors, the Sage was and is
the first of public speakers in Mime
sofa. The voice of f. F. Davis possibly
is susceptible of. finer modulations,
but lacks the what to say possessed
by Mr.. Donnelly: while G. K. DAVIS, no
greater in his command of English, falls
short in the quality of voice.

1T CAN'T BE DONE.

The suggestion that the two houses
of congress unite on compromise tar
if bill, embodying the reductions on
such articles as the two bills agree
upon, is sensible enough, but there is
scarcely chance fits reaching fruition.
The Mills bill and the senate substitute
propose similar reductions in number
Of instances, and apparently there is no
good reason why a compromise bill of
the character suggested should not pass
congress-. But when it is remembered
that the senate substitute did not pass
that body with the eXpe citation that it
would ever be enacted into law
the outlook for revenue reduction
does not seem a hopeful one. If
there had been any prospect of it, the
senate would never have passed it. The
tariff reformers i'll the house might be
willing to adopt the suggestion of
agreeing upon a compromise bill, be-
cause they are sincere in their tariff re-
form professions. Upon the principle
that half loaf is better than no loaf
at all, they would take anything
that was concession to the correctness
of the principle of tariff reform. But
an entirely different sentiment prevails
in the senate. The substitute to the
MILLS bill was framed as party eX-
pedient to tide over the presidential
election. Having accomplished its pur-
pose, the Republican. senate will not
now go out of its way to inaugurate an
honest tariff reform movement. That
body has done all it intends to do; and,
if the house should manifest DISPOSE
ton to pass the senate substitute, we
have no doubt that the Republicans in
the house would filibuster until the
end of the session to prevent it's passage.
