The Farmers and Protection.

The Chicago Tribune, a republican organ
which tells the truth about the tariff-be-
tween campaigns-says with great force,
to the farmers who are now organizing to
fight the Irvine trust:
Why is it that in all their indignation the
farmers have nothing to say about the tariff
duty on ssal and MANILA hemp? These are the
materials used in the manufacture OF binder
Irvine, and they are not produced in this
country the duty is unquestiOnably added to
the cost Then, too, il is solely because of the
tariff barrier in the way of free importation
that the trust is able TO corner the market and
arbitrarily fix prices. Ii binder Irvine mate
rails were on the free list competition would
flow in from abroad without restraint, and stop
any attempt of home monOpolists to force
prices above fair level. The present tariff
adds q per cent. TO the cost of MANILA hemp
and IA to sisal grass. Since these materials are
not and cannot be produced in the United
States duty on them cannot possibly protect
any home interest, unless the Irvine trust is
thought to belong to that class. 1t certainly
gets protection from the duty, but no one else
possibly can. The duty does not protect any
American producing or manufacturing indus
try, but only the monopolists who corner the
market and levy on the farmers Why don't
the latter demand its repeal, and so secure COM
plete, certain and lasting relief from the Irvine
trust monopoly?
The great majority of the farmers of the
Northwest voted last November in favor of
the twine and all other trusts. Theyare not
entitled to much sympathy now that the
Irvine trust is making it warm for them.
But it is too bad that the farmers who had
sense enough to vote against the trusts
should have to suffer for their folly. The
Mills bill. it should not be forgotten, put
binding Irvine on the free list, and if it
had become law there would have been
no Irvine trust.

THE more that Durham-Davenport
matter is stirred up, the worse it smells.
Judge DURHAM resigned as comptroller of
the treasury, but the resignation was not
accepted. 1t was held over his head, and
meantime Atty.-Gen. MILLER tried to get
him to approve DAvENPoRT's scandalous
bill for $4,000 for election expenses" in
New York city. The expenses were, OF
course, incurred in the interest of the re-
publican ticket, and the Harrison-Miller
theory seemed to be that Judge DURHAM
would approve the account in the hope
that by so doing he would be able to hold
on to his position. But Judge DURHAM
was not the kind of a man HARRISON and
MILLER took him to be. He refused to
approve the bill, and his resignation was
promptly accepted by Secy. WINDOW.
The encouragement evidently thought it
would be grand stroke to get the ap-
proval of a democratic comptroller to this
outrageous account, and so it would have
been, from the Doodle standpoint. OF
course the steal will be carried out, but
it will have to be under strictly republican
auspices. AS for Judge DURHAM, he
would rather be right than comptroller.

Our of few more than two hundred
democrats who were employed in the
League Island navy yard month ago,
only about thirty remain. The others
have been removed and their places given
to republican "hustlers." Under the
democratic reign about three hundred
men were considered sufficient to perform
ali the work required. at is common
talk among the old employees" says the
New York Herald, "that before summer
the force in the navy yard will be at least
1000 strong" And there are people who
supported HARRISON ''in the interest of
civil service reform"

IT is recalled that when BENJAMIN
HARRISON was in the senate he expressed
the hope that we would never have a
president who would take middle ground
on the civil service question. He wanted
in the white house either an out and out
reformer or one who would take that
"other frank and bold, if brutal method,
of turning men and women out simply
for political opinions" When HARRISON
used the latter expression, he eviden
had himself in mind.

SENATOR STEWART of Nevada, one of the
republican leaders in the senate, says
civil service is n fraud" that rotation is
anatural law, and there must be a rota-
ton and change in office if the present
form of government is to be preserved"
and that "our presidents should be
elected every two years and then made
eligible for another term" AS the views
of man who represents a rotten borough
in the U. s. senate by virtue of purchase
at public auction, Mr.. STEWARDS opinions
are not important. But he is to be
admired for his frankness and candor.
Mr.. STEWART believes civil service is u
fraud, and says SO; President HARRISON
believes the same thing and acts accord
ingly, all the while protesting that he is
enamored of civil service reform. II is
the hypocrisy Of the president that is dis
gushing.

SOME years ago Sweden substituted a
high tariff for low tariff. The results
have not been satisfactory. The Hon.
RUFUS MAGE, late minister to Sweden,
reports that the cost OF living has greatly
increased. while there has been no cor
responding increase in the rate of wages
or the demand for labor. The only per-
sons who have derived any benefit from
the change of policy are the big manu-
facturers. Protection always works the
same way-it takes from the poor and
gives TO the rich

DoxN P1ATT tells how JOHN SHERMA,

DoNN PIATT tells how JOHN SHERMAN
got into the senate the first time:
! made one of the Ohio legislature in which
was decided the contest between the Hon.
SHERMAN and Gen. ROBERT L. SCHENCK. |
had been returned from Logan county as a
SCHENCK member. / found on my arrival at
Columbus that the SCHENCK men had a de-
cided majority. Gen. SCHENCK was regarded
by the people not only as the filter man, but as
a gallant soldier who had come out of the war
crippled for liz. All went merry as a marriage
bell until the Hon. JOHN appeared on the field,
accompanied by his confidential and con-
tidence man, RUSH SLOAN, and our ma
iOrity melted away. RUSH told me
long afterward that SHERMAN's little
campaign cost $4,000, and that $4,000 was
paid by JAY COOKE & Co. in the three days pre-
cedIng the caucus. Gen. SCHENCK holds to
this day proof of how this corruption fund was
used. Senator MARTIN, for example, made offers
for moneyed consideration to Gen. SCHENCK,
and being snubbed by that eminent gentleman
went over to SHERMAN. MARTIN held resposi-
bic position in the treasury at Washington for
years after At the date of this transaction the
purchase of seats in the senate was not so
common as now. SHERMAN was a pioneer and
SCHENCK's friends hesitated about uncovering
the corruption.
JOHN SHERMAN, you know, represents
the "better element of the republican
party.

SOME OF the mugwump papers OF the
East are discussing LUCIUs B. SWIFT and
WILLIAM DUDLEY FOULKE in connection
with the civil service commission. We
violate no confidence in assuring these
papers that neither Mr.. SWIFT nor Mr.
FOULKE will be put on the commission.
Mr.. SWIFT has been speaking quite plainly
in his Girl Serrice Chronicle about the
presidents surrender to the spoilsmen,
and that shuts him out Mr. FoULKE is a
crank, who said in an address at Baltimore
on the 23d of February that when once
Mr.. HARRIsON's word is out, the last jot
and title will be performed When he
tells us that fitness will be the test and
that he will advance the reform we may
feel sure that worthy men will fill the
offices and that the reform will move
ahead" The reform" has been going
backward ever since March 4 at a terrific
gait, but Mr. FoULKE has said nothing.
Still, as professional reformer, he might
prove troublesome customer on the COM
mission, and the president will not ap-
point him. From present indications, in
deed, he intends to leave the commission
permanently in its existing condition of
'innocuous desuetude."
