BEARDING rHE LION.

The champions of tariff reform mani
fest a courageous faith by aSsailing the
giant Protection in his own citadel. The
general assembly of Democratic clubs
in Philadelphia to-day is the first move
ment i'm the general assault that is to
be made; and the blowing of tariff re-
form bugIeS by such eminent free trade
apostles as W ATTERSON and MILLS right
under Mr.. RANDALL's nose will present
an unusual scene in the metropolis of
the protected TO death state of PennSyl-
Vania. Philadelphia is one of the cities,
however, in which there has been a
great reaction of tariff sentiment, and
the assembly of the Democratic clubs
there at this time will doubtless prove
to be of great advantage to the tariff re-
form cause. 1t is wise stroke of policy
to begin the club organization so early.
The value of club organization was eX-
hibted in the success the Republicans
achieved during the last campaign. The
Democrats were little late in catching
on to the idea, and suffered in cOnSe-
quence. Next time they propose to be
ready in advance of the conflict. More
than that, the club organization is a
valuable aid to the educational cam
paign. which the tariff reformers must
keep up from now until the next elec-
ton. 1t is also possible that this club
convention, which assemblies in Phila-
delphia to-day. will produce good re-
suits in the approaching state election
in Pennsylvania. 1t is reasonably GER
tain that its effect will be felt in the
city of Philadelphia.

THE BAKNUM CASE.
A Question of Law Decided-The
Defense on Deck.

The Barnum libel suit was continued
throughout yesterday, and may possibly
reach a conclusion to-day and be ready
for the jury tomorrow. Yesterday was
occupied by the defense, with the ex-
ception of an argument on motion by
the plaintiff, which was denied by the
court without argument from the de-
Tense. The attorney for Barnum en-
deavored to convince the court that tes
timony for the defense in the line of
justification should not be admitted be-
cause the plea of justification had not
been set up on the line of the inuendOeS
in the complaint: but the court admitted
the testimony. Proof was then offered
by the defense that no notice for retrac-
ton had been served, and that the man.
ager of the GLOBE was in New York on
the day when Barnum'S attorney said
the service had been made. Mr.. Will
son also showed that although Barnum's
attorney had certified on Feb. that he
did know the name of the manager, on
Feb. 10 he certified that he did not know
the name. The defense then intro
duced testimony that the publication
was made after investigation of the
facts, and after the information from
the county attorney that warrant had
been issued for the arrest of Barnum.
Mrs. Bidwell and Mrs. Paine gave testi-
mony corroborating in substance the
publication complained of. DR.. W. H.
Leonard testified to the length of time
Barnum had remained at the Wheeler
residence. after there was any apparent
necessity for so doing. DR.. G. A. French
was introduced as an expert in obstet-
rics, and the remainder of the afternoon
consumed in receiving replies to hypo-
thetical questions concerning treatment
in confinement eases.

DALY'S 1UitN NOW.
He Has the Last Laugh and Bader
Puts UD.

The ''smart trick' played on NUM-
cipal Court Clerk DAILY by SaloOnkeeper
Bob Bader and the four young fellows
who were arrested in his saloon on Sun
day created considerable amusement on
Monday for everybody but MIR. Daily.
Bader was fined 800 for keeping his
place open Oh Sunday. and in payment
gave the court clerk check for the
amount. Then he stopped payment on
the check. Each of the boys put up $50
bail for their appearance when arrested.
Judge Emery imposed a fine of IS on
each of them for gambling. MIR. DAILY,
surprising they had deposited S25 re-
turned $40 to each man. The story was
too good to keep and everybody around
town heard of it. Yesterday Clerk
DAILY quietly marked commitment"
opposite each Of the names on the
docket, and Court Officer John Byrnes
was given the necessary papers to take
the men to the workhouse. ByrneS had
no trouble in finding the genial Bob
and the two had good laugh over the
way in which ''Daly was DONE" But
when the officer pulled a package of
papers from his inside pocket and read
a communication addressed to Supt.
west, commanding MIN 10 Keep Tie
body of one Robert E. Bader in the
workhouse for the period of ninety
DAYS. Robert didn't laugh much, but he
hustled over to the municipal court and
pIanked down 100 good American dol
lars and the cost of the commitment.
Clerk DAILY left the office promptly at 5
o'clock without leaving word where he
might be found, and the boys were
afraid to visit their usual haunts last
night. as they didn't relish the idea of
spending the night in the lookup.
To-day they will pay their fines. No
more checks go with Clerk DAILY.

GATHERING HOME.

president ELIOT is at home at last"
is the way the Chicago Tribune an
nOunces the conversion of Harvard's
scholarly president to the Democratic
faith. The only wonder is that a man
of his intelligence and practical ideas
had not found his way home long ago.
The Democratic party is the only home
for those who believe, as President
ELIOT believes, that 1.-THE principle of
protection is false and opposed to the
nossible development of the country"
The fact that President ELIOT, who has
all along been indOctrinated with this
faith, could have so long remained in
the Republican party is an illustration
of how firm a hold party ties and asso-
Citations retain upon men and warp their
conduct in opposition to their convic-
tions. The fact that he has at length
burst the bonds of party prejudice, and
has openly aligned himself with the
Democratic party, is an evidence that
the thinking men of the age recognize
the Importance of the tariff question,
and deem 1t to be the duty of all citizens
to place themselves in position where
they can accomplish the most in support
of the principles they advocate. The
Democratic party is the home of the
tariff refOrmer. and it is matter of sur
prise that the Chicago Tribune and
some other newspapers we could men,
ton, who supported Judge GRESHAM
for the presidency because of his liberal
views, have not followed the example
of President ELIOT. If they have hon
est convictions. the time will come when
they will break into the Democratic
party in self-defense.
