ELECTION JUDGES.

The wild rantings of the evening Re-
publican organ were brought to a sud-
den termination last night by the action
of council. The members of that BODY
understood their duties under the law.
and proceeded to perform them without
any regard to what the small fry poiiti-
clans Oh the outside were saying. The
Democratic committee wisely decided
to keep its hands out of this matter, and
allow council to proceed with the bust
ness in the usual way. But the Repub-
lican lightweights had an idea that thew
knew more about councils business
than council did itself, and, in imitation
of Tom REEDS tactics, were endeayor-
ing to bull doze that body into adopting
their notions. The election judges who
were named last night are all satisfac-
tory appointments. They are fair rep
resentatives of the voting population of
their respective precincts, and doubt
less all of them are qualified to perform
the delicate duties that will be re-
quired of them by the Australian law
now in force in this city. If the Dis
patch and IFS kid" constituency do not
like it, they will have to lump it.

burg, Pa, by order of the Republican
state committee the day the MCKINLEY
tariff bill passed congress. There is re-
joicing among the tariff barons else
where.
But there is no shout of joy raised in
the labor camp. There is not single
instance of where the pap-fed manufact-
urer has proposed to increase the wages
of his employees on account of the pass
age of the new tariff law. Under the
operation Of that law the workingman
has to pay higher for what he consumes,
but it doesn't bring him corresponding
increase in his earnings.
And yet the Minnesota congressman
will be around next week, trying to per-
suade the labor classes that their inter
ests were consulted when the MCKIN-
LEY bill was passed.
AS old JOHN FALsTAFF would say,
''Lord, Lord, how this world is given to
lying"

SNuRRING DULUTH.

1t is amusing to see how the Repub-
lican committee has arranged for its
campaign in the northern part of the
state. Senator DAVIS is to take Gov.
MERRIAM under his arm and tote him
around over the Fifth district until he
gets to Duluth, and then the governor is
to be dropped. Senator DAVIS is man
who likes to be met with brass band
when he visits a town, and he is shrewd
enough to know that the Duluth orches-
ira doesn't play MERRIAM airs.
1t was a mistake in the Republican
committee to arrange for the Duluth
meeting. Superior is Merchants strong
hold. He is popular over there. A
mans heart is most apt to be where his
treasure is, even though it lies beyond
the boundary of his own state. The
Duluth people want to see to it that the
Superior voters do not invade their
town in too great numbers on election

MR.. WILKINSON DECLINES

"If am so soon to be done for, what
in the world was l begun for?' is
question that Hon. MORTON S. Wr1K-
INsoN may well PROFOUND to himself
His letter of declination will be a sur
prise to a good many Second district
Democrats, and possibly surprise to
some who are not Democrats. We have
no disposition to question the wisdom of
Mr.. WILKINsoN's action in this matter.
This is a free country, where every
man has the right to run for Office or
not to run, just as he feels inclined.
But when candidate has accented q
nomination he owes something to the
party which nominated him. If Mr..
WILKINsoN's course was taken after
consultation with the congressional
committee in charge of the campaign in
his district, and was done with their
consent, then there is no criticism to
pass on his conduct. We are not ac-
quainted with the facts, and conse-
Quently withhold comment.

BRIToNs IN THE SCHEME.
Chicago to Have - Big Tin Plate
Mill.

Mill.
CHICAGO, Oct. THE Illinois Steel
company will engage in the manufac-
ture OF tin plate in Chicago. 1t will
have ah extensive and costly plant for
this purpose, to be established at an
early date. Probably English and East
ern capitalists will have an important
interest in the new business. About
the enterprise reporter yesterday
talked with 0. w. Potter, who is en-
thusiastic concerning the venture. He
is director in the steel company and
was the president of its predecessor,
the North Chicago Rolling Mill COM
pany.
Il think can safely say" declared
Mr. Potter, THAT within eighteen
months tin plate will be manufactured
IN Chicago by our company"
VIII the manufacture of tin plate
mere be practicable and protitable?''
ENTIRELY so. The steel company,
with Its works, will be able to roll steel
as thin as tin plate, and now that the
taflH is so high as to make it secure in
the new enterprise, there is no reason
why II should not go ahead at the earli-
est possible moment. A large propor-
ton of the work would be done by ma
chlnery in place of by hand, as it is
done in Wales"
You regard it, then, as an important
enterpriseoo''
Very. Why, there are between
o9o,oo0 and 400,000 tons of tin plate used
III inns country every year, and not a
pound OF 1t is manufactured here-more
tonnage than the steel rails used by the
TaiiroadS. TO be exact, there are $780,
o0O tons consumed annually. And Chi
cage could manufacture every pound
used in the United States"
The Illinois Steel company is a con-
solldatIon of the North Chicago Roll
ing Mill company, with rolling
mills at North Chicago, South
chicago and Milwaukee, and the
Joliet Steel company. 1t is corpora

A COSTLY CZAR.

TOW REEDS business congress turns
out to be an expensive luxury.
The total appropriations Of the first
session amount to S462, 939. $50.
This does not include the payments to
be made under the disability pension
act, which will absorb about S60,0OO,00o
more.
This extravaganza is appalling. But
when we remember that there is to be
another session of Tom REEDS con-
greSS the country may well quake for
the consequences. The treasury hooters
have just fairly got their hand in, and
unless they get square knoek-down
by an overwhelming defeat next month
they will bankrupt the nation.

ON THE OFFENSIVE.

The Minnesota congressman are at
home now. They will all start out next
week on campaign of explanation. de-
NAL and defense. They will go around
the country making speeches to prove
that they own themselves, and that the
miSdeedS of REED and MCKINLEY ought
not to weigh in the balance against
them. This is an unfortunate attitude
for the candidates of any party to oc-
cupy, but it is the best this congress
sional herd can do Representatives
who have betrayed the interests of their
constituents, and have sold out to the
tin trust and the twinemakers, can't be
expected to hold their heads up when
they face an outraged constituency.

IT Is not in the best taste for Republican
papers TO sheer at ex-President HAYES as
mere breeder of poultry, when he predicts
that the MCKINLEY tariff will be the ruin of
the Republican party. He cannot be sus.
pected of a mercenary motive, as eggs are in
the new list. He does not even express his
own wishes in the matter He but assumes
that the masses are intelligent aud sensible
enough of their own interests, and possessed
of courage enough, to vote for themselves.
