For Foreigners. or For Us?

The Mckinley bill is under dis
cussion not only in the American
Congress but in the British Parha-
ment. and among the statesmen of
the Dominion of Canada. Recently
in the House of Commons, Mr..
Howard Vincent, a prominent mem
Der of that body, announced that If
the Mckinley bill should pass the
greatest injury would be done to the
trade Of Sheffield and Birmingham
The Canada newspapers and public
men speak also in doleful terms of
the injury that the new tariff will
produce as regards the interests Of
that country. In fact they give 1t
up as a bad Job. The London (On.
tariol Free Press says: The AmerI-
cans do not want any closer reIa-
tons with us. We are not welcome
to their market. They buy from US
with the utmost reluctance, and 1t Is
their aim to stop buying the very
moment they can do without our
products. The United States mar
ket has all along been market OF
convenience, and in the very nature
of things it could never have been
reasonably expected that the AmerI-
cans would go on buying agricultu-

A Calamity ora tor

A member of Congress named
William l.. Wilson misrepresents
one of the West Virginia districts.
He happened ont iu Missouri lately
and made a speech there, in which
he said: ave have had for twenty
five years q system of taxation that
that has been destructive to citizen
ship, to progress, and to civilization"
What rot this is; and yet the Dem
ocrauc newspaper that reported this
speech called Mr.. Wilson a "phe-
nominal orator.
BY actual figures, Missouri has in
creased in the value of its property
SO per cent. and West Virginia has
increased 40 per cent, since the
census Of 1850 Ii is probable that
the increase in the value of property
in West Virginia IN ten years is less
than that of most states, for il has
been under rigid bourbon control,
has been retarded by bloody border
feuds, and has been governed
through fraudulent elections. With
good progressive government and

there were more sold more cheaply
in our western states than at the
doors of English factories; the
"poor farmer" Of America buying
his implements more cheaply than
the poorer farmer of England, aud
"the great manufacturer" of Amer
lea getting 9 lower price for them
than "the great manufacturer" Of
England. The article was copied
extensively, and the Republican
press of the large cities extended
the scope of comparison and inquiry
first suggested by the Ettreka, but
the free-trado press never replied
The recent Example" pointed out
by the Eureka is the Honorable Mr..
Mills, of Texas, once known as the
author of bill for an alleged re-
form Of the tariff. Mr.. Mills bill
was devised to cripple northern
manufacturers and TO enable his
southern planting constituents to
buy "cheap clothing" for the "cheap
labor" of which they boast so much i.
When Mr.. Mills was advocating the
passage of his bill he was eloquent
III urging northern farmers to pro-
test against "the usurpation Of man
ufacturlng capital" His bill, how
ever, was rejected by Congress, and
the action of Congress was APP
proved by the vote of the people.
Mr.. Mckinley having introduced
a bill which gives greater protection
to the farmers Of the country, the
Democratic press has for the most
part, been busy in assuring "the
poor farmers" that the bill would
not protect them. But Mr.. Mills
knew better. He wrote an article
in the Forum of the present month
urging the New England "great
manufacturers" to "unite their
whole political power TO demand
untaxed food" Just as in 1888 he
al urged the farmers to unite their
whole political power to demand
"untaxed plows." He declares that
the Mckinley bill "increases the
duties on all farm products, a great
part Of which New England must
buy from other regions" So that
Mr.. Mills, of Texas, just now is as
Jealous for the welfare of "the
great manufacturer" and as hostile
to "the poor farmer" as he pretended
to he jealous for the farmer and
hostile to the manufacturer in 1888.
The Eureka notes the inconsis-
tency between the free-trade news
papers which insist that the Nc
Kinley bill does not protect the
farmer and the author of the once
famous free-trade bill who insists
that it does protect the farmer at
the cost of the manufacturer,

substantially as it passed the House.
THIS has been said before in these
columns, but it is important enough
to repeat.
Both House and Senate have
withdrawn its amendments TO the
antitrust bill which has now gone
to the President in exactly the shape
which it first passed the Senate. 1t
is harmless document.
Commissioner of Pensions Raum
has no idea of resigning, although
his position is one of the hardest
and most unsatisfactory under the
government.
The River and Harbor bill has
been reported to the Senate. With
the amendments added by the Sen
ate committee the bill carries an
appropriation of nearly $25, oOO,0OO
and there is much talk among the
leaders of the party against the ad-
visibility of passing it at the pres
ent session. Such talk however
will not defeat the measure which
is especially dear to the average
legislators heart, but should it pass
there will be great pressure brought
to bear on the President to veto it.
Speaker Reed, whe4 asked when
Congress would adjourn replied:
"The House can adjourn by the first
of July, and not leave anything Of
pressing Importance undone." 1t
would require some very lively
hustling on the part of the House
to adjourn at that date, but of course
it could be done if the Senate were
ready to adjourn, and the Speaker
so willed it, but the Senate will just
be beginning its consideration of
the tariff bill on that date. Ad-
journment will be nearer to Septem-
Der than July.
The Senate rejected two Presi
dental nominations this week--JOhn
b. Eaves to be collector of internal
revenue for the fifth district of
North Carolina and Ii. II. Schoch,
to be postmaster at Selin's Grove,
Pa. Both of these appointments
were made more than a year ago.
Mrs. Harrison and her family
have left Washington for the sum
mer; they have gone to their new
cottage at Cape May Point. The
President will pay them a visit to-
morrow, returning Monday or
Tuesday.
The House republican caucus
having finally decided that a Fed
eral election law shall be passed byI
the House at this session, the bill
has been reported to the House and
it will be pushed through at once.
1t is not believed that the Senate
will pass the bill, certainly not at
this session, aud in the House those
who are most deeply Interested, the
southern republicans, are almost to
man opposed to the bill, though of
course they will vote for it because
the caucus has made it a party
measure.
Secretary Noble has transmitted,
through the Secretary of the Treas
ury, to Congress letter from Com
missioner of Pensions Raum, asking
for an appropriation for 443 new
employees in his office. He estimates
that the services of that many will
be made necessary by the new dis
ability pension bill.
Vice-President Morton has re-
turned to his duties, and is again
gracefully welding the gayel over
a dignihed but perspiring Senate.
Senator Edmunds says that in
stead Of the Senate being friendly
to corporations, as has often been
alleged, it has originated all of the
anti-eorporation Legislation for years
past.

workingmen.
There are now strongly organized in

makers, locomotive engineers, conduct
ors, amalgamated steel workers, car
penters, bricklaycrs, stone masons and

ters-He Strikes at the Lobby and Tells
the Legislature What Must lie Done
With the Cincinnati Board.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 21.-[Speciall-
The House this morning adopted a re-
solution as the sense of that body that
no slight or insult was intended on the
part of the House in the refusal of the
speaker to accept the governors mes
sage yesterday evening, and appointing
committee to call upon the governor
and request that his message again to
be sent to the House.
Gov. Campbell complied with the re-
quest. The message is as follows:
TO the general assembly: You were
summoned here to perform a plain and
Imperative duty. After special scs-
sion of several days, having been unable
to agree upon form of relief for the
city of Cincinnati, some further sug-
gestionS are in order. 1t is recon-
mended that in lieu of the present
board of public Improvements a non
partisan board be created to be an
pointed by the mayor, who, as executive
head of the city government, ought to
be responsible for it's boards: and hav-
ing himself been elected by the people
of that city, such appointment would
he in conformity to the doctrine of
home rule. Since you assembled, it has
pScH Cicdrly UnaU ltl Our n
no pains or expense have been spared
to send a lobby here to mislead and
intimidate you, nobody in the city Of
Cincinnati could be found for that bur
pose other than those having a direct
personal interest in said board. This
sufficiently proves how low the board
itself has fallen in public estimation.
Let the handful of schemers who are
scufiling in the dirt before you, hoping
for some petty personal gain, be over
looked. Remember the great body Of
the people of Ohio who stand amazed at
the scenes enacted here last week: who
have read with disgust that notorious
lobbyists sat in the halls OF legislation
openly directing votes and speeches of
members, and who are fast learning to
despise those who obstruct honest Gov-
ernment and home rule. The plain
duty before you is to permit no devia-
ton from the path marked out. Let no
specious amendments or changes be per-
mitted. DO not swerve q hairs breadth
from your purpose to wipe out the board
and eventually to submit the whole
question to the people. From this time
on any and all propositions other than
this are meant for partisan advantage
only. There is no middle ground. TO
delay longer is confession of incapac-
ity; to refuse the passage of the bill is q
confession of infidelity.
