The new government of Brazil,
South America, will not have an es-
tabIished religion. 1t is the inten
ton of'the Republic to separate the
functions of church and state. The
Catholic religion has heretofore been
the religion of the empire. The
young Republic may have many
more knotty problems than the
separation of church and state to
solve before she gets many more
years older. She is just opening up
a new field for politicians.

There can be no doubt that the

have been seriously depressed by

tries. The action taken by the
Farmers Alliance at st. Louis the
other day and the letter of Mr.. Den.
ison Smith equally attest this fact.
But is retaliation likely, to yield
any satisfactory result? Seeing, that
we "retaliated" Is or 20 years be-
fore France or Germany did, that
we changed our commercial policy
from low tariff to high tariff and at a
time when they We're changing from
high 10 low, that we really led the
way TO the slough of commercial re-
strictions in which all three coun-
tries now find themselves, would it
not BIO the wisest course for us to
lead the way back instead of plung-
ing in deeper by excluding French
and German wines and other articles
"not actually indispensable to our
peOple?" Will a hair of the same
dog cure the bite? We robbed Peter
to pay Paul when we adopted the
Morrill, tariff. Will it help matters
to repeat the operation on larger
scale? Why should the buyers of
French and German wines be pun
ished? What have they done that
they should be selected for chastise-
ment? They havecontributed moth
ing to the embodiment between the
three countries. Nor can it be
shown that vicarious punishment
inflicted upon them would cause
France and Germany to change
their policy. On the other hand,
there is good reason to believe that
they would follow us in steps to-
wards greater freedom of trade ii
they should see US moving in that

mr.. Cleveland I'm boston.

No one can read the speech Ex-
President Cleveland made to the
merchants of Boston last week with
out being deeply impressed with the
earnesstness and farsightedness of a
man whose whole public career has
emphasized the grand principle that
public office is a public trust; the
man who looked beyond the person
al interests of himselfand his imme-
diatc coterie and the interests of a
political organization, to the inter-
ests of a nation and the perpetuity
of a party of the people.
To Mr.. Cleveland the presidency
was the highest place of public
service 1t was not a prize drawn
in a lottery. To him party was
something more than an organiza-
ton of place-seekers; it was an or
ganization of good citizens, acting
together for the public good. A
victory won by means that under
mine popular government would
have been worse than defeat TO
such man, as defeat in fighting
for the JeffersoHiap principles OF
local self-government and uuneces-
sary taxation is more welcome than
victory with the domination of those
political and merchantile interests
that demand the taxation of the
people for their benefit, and the
concentration of power at that point
where the smallest number of citi-
gems can watch it.-Ndtiondl Demo

CHARLEsroN, w. Va, December
2s.-The most disastrous wreck that
ever occurred on the G. 4 o. rail-
road happened two miles west of
the White Sulphur Springs at 7.3O
o'clock this morning. Passenger
train No. 3, going west, passed
White Sulphur about Z o'clock. 1t
was behind time, and was running
at high rate of speed AT sharp
curve the rails spread, but the en-
gine and tender passed over safely.
The axle of the first truck of the
mail car, which was next, broke and
the entire train following, except
the last sleeper, was piled in n
terrible wreck against the broken
car. The combination car was next
after the mail car, and the passenger
coach was attached to it. The latter
plunged into the combination car,
and both were crushed to pieces.
Here the great loss of life occurred.
The passenger coach contained near
ly fifty persons. All were more or
less injured. Eleven were pinned
down under the crushed timbers
and the life ground out of them.
THE WORK OF RESCUE.
The few passengers and train men
who escaped unhurt Immediately set
about rescuing the injured and re-
moving the dead bodies. Help was
sent for aud the work of clearing up
the debris continued nearly all day.
Fearful sights were presented dur
ing. the work. Many of the dead
bodies were horribly mangled, and
some were beaten out of almost all
resemblance to human form. The
dead We're taken to Ronceverte and
the wounded returned to White
Sulphur, where they were cared for.

THE TARIFF BILL


VIII be Ready for Congressional Action
Within = few Days.
WAsHfsoTos CrTY. April Lit was un-
derstood yesterday that the tariff bill was
to be reported to the House at noon today,
but II appears that matters of importance
remain to be settled and the report is there
by delayed.
The sugar men ere here in force and we're
heard this morning by the Republican
members in secret session The air is
filled With rumors of changes in the sugar
schedules. One Of these stories Is that the
Republicans have 1t last decided to place
sugar on the free list and provide q bounty
to sustain the industry in this country.
The subject OF carpet wool II again open
to further adjustment. Chairman Nc
kinney says the bill will be reported today.
WAsHIsGros CIIr. April I5.-A protest
signed by sixteen Republican representa-
tives has been presented to the committee
OF WAYS and means against the sugar and
wool schedule as published. These repre-
sentatiyes urge upon the committee re-
duction Of 25 per cent. on sugar and an in
crease duty On low grade or carpet wool
from "a to Clio cents per pound rs the
greatest change which should be made.
The manufacturers Of ingram carpet say
the change in the duty will increase the
price OF their products from 50 to 30 cents
and practically wipe out the business of
4s000 looms and enforce idleness on 5000
workman.
The signers Of the protest are from all
sections Of the country, and while nothing
of the kind Is contained in the document.
an understanding exists among them that
in it's present shape they will not vote for
the bill In the committee of s.sS NaoIe il
the House.
Another Republican member, Coleman
uouisiana). says unless further advised by
his constituents. he will not vote for any
reduction on sugar.
The Republican members of the ways
and means committee were in session this
afternoon. considering the sugar and wool
schedules. The bounty proposition, as ap-
piled TO sugar, was presented definitely BY
sugar manufacturers They will accept a
bounty in place OF the present duty If they
can be assured that it viii be continued
