why the strsizhtouts Withdrew.

The strsighsOut dem Dcra.s Of South Caro-
lima st4ts nothing 10 thsir address giving
their reasons To- Withdrawing from toe
convention az Columbia last We1lesday
that was not already known 70 the public
They say thai the convention was called by
the state executive committe. of the De no
cratic party to do only one thing, viz: to
dsc de whether the delegates 10 the regular
state convention II September should bs
chosen BY primaries or by conventions, and
that. contrary to the constitution of the
party and u precedent. it did more than
tnat-it adopted a new constitution and
elected a new executive committee.
Doubtless the straightouts are right in
saying that the convention exceeded its
authority, but it doesn't follow thai they
acted wisely in withdrawing from tn, con-
veltion. They did not strengthen their
potion by doing 50. nor did they increase
their chances for beating Tillman in tn,
September convention. Had they remained
in the convention and protested against the
unconstitutional act they wouli have been
in more advantageous position tlan they
now are for appealing to the psopls, tie
contest for delegl tes to the September
convention, to put the stamp of
disapproval upon the high-ha1ded aud ar
bitrary exercise of power by the Till
NANTES. Having Withdrawn from the
convent N they are likely to be looked upon
as malcontents who have taken themselves
outside of their party because they were not
permitted to manage it their own way. If
that view should be taken of them aud it
probably will be, they will find it difficllt to
gain the sympathy of ths people in the
campaign for delegates u the September
convention. Their aim being TO prevent
Tillman's nomination they should have re-.
manned in the convention

Reeds Other Twin in Danger.

The tariff bill and force bill are Speaker
Reeds twins. Having bad so much 70 do
with bringing them into existence be very
naturally thinks a great deal Of them.
He depends upon them 70 keep his party IN
power. and to make him a much greater
man than he is. He has worked hard TO
get them as far along in life as Trey are,
and he resents every attempt 20 check their
progress toward maturity. When be re-
members that they would not nov be IN
existence If he q not used his power aroi-
trarily aud unconstitutIOnally 10 get a
maj1rity large enough to carry them
through the House. his anger against those
of his party friends who dare TO speak an
unkind WORD of them, or to put an obstruc-
tion in their way, knows no bounds.
One Of these twins is already il a mort
bund condition. 1t is the force bill. At
the suggestion OF Senator Quay it is to be
abandoned virtually for this session Of con-
gress, and before the next session it will be
so near dead that it viii not be possible to
revive it. OF course Speaker Reed grieves
for it, but his anger is greater than his
grief and those who are responsible for its
unhappy fate may count him as their
enemy.
But the other twin-the tariff bills by
no means vigorous infant The chief re-
publican organ, the New York Tribune,
says that Senator Quay suggested the
abandonment of the force bill in order that
the tariff infant might have better chance
for life
1t insinuates that a few rich men-pro-
tected monpolists-who are Senator Quay's
constituents are deeply intere ted in it, and
for that reason he plotted to sacrifice the
force bill to save it. 1t warns him, how
ever, that the tariff infant is in danger and
that his scheming in its behalf may come to
nothing. There are republican senator's, it
says, who do not approve of many things in
the tariff bill, but who have supported it
because they hoped by doing so to get the
entire party support for the force bill.
The real sentiments of the republican
senator's and representatives relative to these
twin measures of Speaker Reed appear to
be coming out at last. Speaker Reed and
those who follow his lead favor both the
tariff and the force bill, but there are re-
publican congressman who are opposed to
one or both of them, but who have been
forced to support both by party pressure.
The whole country has condemned the rec
bill, and the prospect is that it will receive
no further consideration. And it would
not be surprising if the tariff bill should
meet with the same fate that has overtaken
the force bill. When the leading republican
organ declares that Senator Quay wants
that bill passed to oblige a few rich con-
stituents, and that there are re-
publican senator's who find many
things in it that are Objectionable,
1T is certainly time for the people to begin
to ask whether they should not speak out
strongly against a measure that is admitted
to be against their interests There is a
steadily growing sentiment against the
tariff bill, and it is among the probabilities
that Speaker Reed will see his tariff twin
abandoned almost as uncerenonlously as
his other twin was

Phe Ca Jpn sits upon his throne,
And all the court is gay;
But from bis own breast Joy has flown,
And why they cannot say.
The fairest of Arabic maids,
To musics sweetest sounds,
Dance meath the weirdly carved arcades,
And every flower aboundS.
Before him every fruit is set,
The horsemen guard the wall,
And from the graceful minaret
Comes the muezzin'S call.
But still the Caliph sits in thought;
So one before him falls,
And asks with what joy can be bought,
And on their Allah calls.
Now is the Callph all a king;
He issues his command:
go find the purest, fairest thing,
And place it at my hand. y
Then through the city DER the land,
And in the deep blue sea,
They sea CHI, they find all Allah plau'd,
But moody yet is he.
Thorns he has found upon the rose,
The diamonds specXs has zen,
Life in the purest stream That flows
Then kneels his favorite queen.
Now gloom is dashed into its grave,
Now loud the oet's sing.
"A wife, be she of king or slave,
Is the purest, fairest thing"

that she doesn't love Stevins and wouldn't
have married him under any circumstances
and that she has no recollection of having
gone with him to minister and being mar

drugged or hypnotized, but she is sure that
she was put uader some influences that
deprived her of her senses. She is asking a
New Jersey court for divorce, as she
thinks life would be lrdeu too heavy to
bear if she had to live with the blear-eyed
young man.

believe in an equal division of wealth, that
is, share for them CT somebody else's
wealth, have determined Ito teach the
wealthy manufacturers a lesson" They
have started ia opposition to their employ
ers shop on the equal share" plan, sort
of cooperative movement. The men have
established code of rules for their govern
ment and elected a foreman and assistant
foreman. The chief interest in the move
ment is not so much the question whether
the mon will succeed in teaching manu-
facturers a lesson as in the question whether
they will succeed with their experiment.
The probabilities are that the leaders will
cast off the yoke of equality, and quarrel.

The only practical tests they make are with

Gen. Butler on Passions.

At the grand army reunion in Boston the
other day Gen. Butler said that taose who
are members OF the grand army were once
( banded together TO fght for the union. and
that they are nov banded together TO get
waat thu government owes them.
Gen. Alger. the retiring commander Of
tn grand army. sail IN thu course OF bis
address that the grand army was now re-
ceiving in pensions $4,000, 900 year, and
that within the next twelve months il
would he receiving $50, 600. 900, very nearly
half of the revenues of the government.
Does Gen. Butler want all the revenues
paid to the grand armyl II certainly ap-
pears So Gel. Butler seems to have the
idea that the grand army saved the country
and that now it o WIS it.
1t and the pc sion claim agents will come
very near Owning it if the republican party
remains In power much longer. There are
pension bills pending which, il passed,
would bankrupt the government. Some Of
the republican organs and leaders have
called halt in the pension business. They
have become alarmed at the demands of the
Grand Army. There are plenty of demo-

continue to tell the veterans that the
nations debt to them is not paid, however

AS result of the increase In importation
costs under the new customs administra-
ton bill selling prices have been advanced
to proportionate extent. The increase in
price comes out of the consumer. OF course.
and if the Mckinley tariff bill, which
raises taxes further, should become law,
there would be another increase in selling
prices The increase is merely an addi-
tional tax on the consumer for the benefit
of the favored manufacturer. The i'm
porter derives no benefit from it. He
raises the price of his goods in proportion
to the increased duty.
