MILLS IN KETKEAT.

Congressman Mills of Texas made
speech in Minneapolis last October from
which the following gems are selected:
!" Free trade will kill trusts as dead as a
door-nail. And yet the American people
insist on sending to Congress men who vote
for protection.
:" We must exchange the things we do not
want for those we must have. And to do
this we must nave absolute free trade"
8 If you want market take down the
tariff on WOODEN goods and iron. Then levy
tax on incomes and the wealthy men of
the country and you'll see prosperity"
. l believe in free trade, free labor, free
speech and free press"
Unless Mr.. Mills was incorrectly reported
this was his platform in October. In No
venlber the Democrats gained control of the
House and Mr.. Mills fixed his eye on the
Speakers chair But some of the papers of
his party said he would not do His free
trade views were too pronounced. If Mr..
Mills should be elected Speaker it was urged
that the people would conclude that the
Democratic party was in favor of free trade.
The conservative papers OF the party being
bigger than Mills he gracefully consented to
travel the entire distance between them.
ID is not now in favor of free trade He is
for tariff for revenue only. "If," said Mr.
Nj ills to the Washington correspondent of
the Courie1-Journol. "a tariff levied for and
limited exclusively to the actual needs of the
Government is free trade then am a free
trader" The wealthy men of the country
may thank MIR. Mills ambition to be Speaker
for the disappearance of the income tax
from his political platform. Rather than
that he would lay tax OH tea, coffee, spices
and such other things as we must import
An import tax on tea and coffee touches
nearly every breakfast table in the United
States. 1t is tax the poor and middle
classes pay out of all proportion to their
means. A day laborer may consume as
much tea OF coffee as a millionaire, and each
contributes to the revenue in proportion to
what he consumes. or all the poor mans
taxes that on tea and coffee is the worst. A
man has TO pay it whether he owns a dollars
worth OF property or not. We do not think
that Mr.. Mills has helped his prospects by
his substitution of tariff for revenue only
plank for his free-trade plank, but he has
shown that his political views are not too
rigid 10 yield to the popular will.

A THIRD PARTY.

The present indications are that the
Farmers Alliance Will not be content to act
with one or the other of the national par
ties according as the candidates of either may
best suit them. This policy might mold out
the hope of influencing legislation sufficient
to satisfy the leaders of an organization
while it was in its infa ncy, but would
hardly answer the purposes of the aspiring
men who in time are drawn into popular
movement. The call that has been signed
for a conference for tie more thorough
organization of a third party includes in the
invitation knights of Labor ana all other
industrial organizations that support the
principles Of the ST. Louis agreement of
1889. In the ordinary course of the forma-
lion Of parties the later-c, merS modify in a
mea sure the ideas advanced in the original
platform. Under the call the conference
viii doubtless proceed TO construct new
platform, one not necessarily in antagonism
to the cid, but more comprehensive; one
that will give all the associations that may
be represented more or less emphatic eX-
preston OF their views. The new party will
be composed Of material from which no
danger to the public need be apprehended.
1t will be an association and organization of
the industrial forces of the country, and
viii acquire influence according as wisdom
prevails IN its counselS .

WHAT IL ME A Ms.

THE alta California asks the following
question docs THE CALL know anything
about wages in other countries in Europe
besides England 2" 1t does. 1t knows that
wages are even lower in most European
countries than they are in England. And
it knows, further, that if Americans geneI-
ally were to go TO any portion of Europe
and work for wages they would not talk
quite so flippantly as some of them do
about free trade. In the United States
wages are very different from what they
are in any portion of Europe. 1t is with
the utmost difficulty that a laboring man
can make anything more than bare sup
port for himself in Europe. If our neigh
bors of the Alta California are not satisfied
with this response TO its question it has
only TO ask any of our citizens-laborerS-
who came from Europe in respect to their
struggles for support to find cut what 1t
seems ignorant of. Free trade with Euro
pean countries means the next thing to free
trade and free labor from China.

cuted mainly in Europe that invites all this
capital into home industries. In time the
growth of these industries will have politi-
cal effect upon the South. The people of
these States will soon see that their pros
perity depends upon the maintenance of the
protective system which has called these in
dustries into being. 1t is known that there
are men in the South who would openly
favor protective tariff if that question could
be separated in their minds from the race
question. But as yet the mass of Southern
men believe that Republican ascendency
would result in the domination of certain
States by the colored people, and while they
think so their vote on the tariff will be subor-
dinated to their vote on the race question.

s1O,OoO.OOO A WEEK.

The New York Times gives list of new
enterprises organized in one week in the
Southern States in which nominal capital
OF $10.0G0000 is invested. The Times gets
its data from the ManWacture,s' Record,
bat as these investments are evidently stimu-
lated by tine new tariff bill, the Times would
not go out Of its way to give them currency.
Companies have been formed to deve.op coal
lands, to build steel cars, to make plumbers
supplies. to manufacture engines and cotton
goods, to establish stock-yards and packing
houses and other industries. 1t may be said
that these are not What is known as the pro-
tected Industries. But they are industries
which depend largely upon the prosperity of
the protected industries. 1t is the promise
of an enlarged market for labor to result
from the establishment in this country of
Industries that have heretofore been prose-

STILL HARPING.

The New York Herald still continues to
make itself ridiculous by its senseless de-
mand that the population of New York be
counted In the winter. when its residents
are mostly at home. Other States and cities
abide by June census. with the under
standing that nearly One-tenth of the
people are in the woods; but New York
wants to be an exception. The Herald now
calls upon New York Congressmen to delay
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1890-12-06

the business of the session until Congress
has responded to the demand of New York.
This call was made week ago, but none OF
tn e New York Congressman seem to have
taken notice of it. The Herald should curb
its propensity TO put New York in front on all
occasions S. New York is a great State, and
the Herald is a rich paper, but there are
other States in the Union besides New ork,
and other naners besides the Herald.

A girl 16 years of age was taken from the
Hubbard House, 139 Fourth street, by Sec
rotary Hunter of the Society for the Pre-

named Elmer Dare on the train, who said
he was Postoffice official. He offered to
assist her in procuring situation and to
provide respectable lodgings for her. She
accepted his apparently kind offices, and a
day after arriving here signed paper,
which he led her to believe was a marriage
contract. Since then they lived as man aud
