Fighting for Franklin,s Money.

Our dispatches yesterday stated that
petition had been filed in the orphans court
Of Philadelphia by the heirs of Benjamin
Franklin, praying that the sum OF 800, 600,
now held by the board of city trustees, and
known as the Franklin fund" should be
turned over to them, the ground of their
claim being that the provisions of Frank
Inns will are in violation of law, and that
therefore the will is VOID. 1t seems rather
curious that Franklin's will should be
brought into court a hundred years after
his death. In these withdrawing DAYS
however, any will, however ancient it may
be, is liable to be attacked, particularly if
the amount to be obtained by breaking it
terest to heirs or others.
The bequest which Ben Franklin made
to the city of Philadelphia hundred years
ago was not large one. 1t was just S., 0OO
but it has become 100000. In his will the
philosopher said ne wanted this little sum
of S., 900 loaned 60 artiicers who had served
regular apprenticeship and who had
reached the age of 25 years and had taken
to themselves wives OF course, he expected
help them along in the world. His will also
provides that at the end of a century
sixty-nine one-hundreds of the acoumu-
lated sum shall be used for public purpose
of the greatest value to Philadelphia, and
that thirty-one one-hundreds shall con-
tinue to be applied to the
assistance of artificers. With reference
TO the larger sum he recommended that it
should be used for bringing water into
Philadelphia from Wissahickon creek and
improving the navigation of the Schuylkill
river. River and harbor bills and mammoth
water works were things unknown in his
day. and the good old man had no idea
doubtless that Philadelphia would ever con-
tain a million of people. OF course, the
SIC, 900, which must now be applied to some
public object, cannot be used in the way
thai Franklin recommended, and the
trustees do not know exactly what
to do with it. And there seems
to be no use for the smaller sum, 1874, 900,
because no artificers want TO borrow it.
Unless the heirs are successful in their suit
it will be reinvested for another hundred
years, and at the end of that time it will
amount to millions of dollars, if not wasted
or lost. The trustees will then have to use
it for some public purpose.
But what are the trustees to do with the
$4,000 which must be expended at onces
They don't know. They have numerous
suggestions. Some say apply it to the
higher education of women. and others say
use it for preventing cruelty to animals.
In the meantime the heirs say they will
take charge of the whole accumu alton.
thus relieving the trustees of any further
trouble. Perhaps when the lawyers and
courts have settled the question as to what
shall be done with it there will be very
little to quarrel about

Amending the Tariff Bill.

The republicans are not satisfied with
their own tariff bill. According to our
dispatches yesterday Representative
Morse. of MASSACHUSETTS, has introduced a
bill in the House TO increlss the duty on
binding Irvine. The House put pretty
heavy duty on this Irvine, and the Senate,
on the demand of the western senator's, put
the Irvine on the fres list. The conference
COMMITTEES made it dutiabLs, but fixed the
duty at only about one-half the rae origin
ally fixed by the House. The House adopted
the conference report, not because it
thought the report was just what it should
be, but because it did not dare ID permit the
report % be discussed.
In our dispatches Representative McKin-
ley is reported as saying that he thought
the bill increasing the duty on binding twIne
would be passed 1t is rather strange, that, if
such is his opinion, he did not insist upon
report from the conference committee that
would have met with the approval of the
binding Irvine trust, since he was a member
of that committee.
But why shouldn't the farmers of the
west have free binding twineg Why is it
that the republicans insist in unfolding the
binding Irvine trust to the injury of the
farmerss Can it be possible that the trust
is large contributor to the national repub-
hcan campaign fund.-
When the binding Irvine schedule was
before the Senate western senator pointed
out that the binding Irvine trust was even
more exorbitant in its demands than the
jute bagging trust had been. In the course
Of b g remarks this western senator said:
1.-The members of the binding Irvine trust
are as far above legislative control as the
clouds that float above the capitol. They
are in need of no protection. They are
amply able to protect themselves and to
spolicate the world.n He showed that
their profits, on an aggreg ate annual out
put of sl0,0o0,0Oo, were $4,OOO,0OO, or 40
per cent, and that OF this vast sum the
Minnesota farmers paid about one million
dollars.
A trust with such immense profits can
afford to maintain big lobby at Washing
ton, ana also contribute literally to cam
paign funds. If what the western senator
said is true why should the republican lead
ers be 50 anxious TO uphold the trust if they
do not expect some help from it? Tne jute
bagging trust was, of course, just as burden
some to the cotton farmers of the south as
| the binding Irvine trust is to the wheat
farmers of the west but the south can
hardly expect justice from the Republican
party, because that party has no strength
in the south, but it is reasonable to suppose
that it would have favored the farmers of
the west in preference to the trust 1t
seems not, however. And it would not be
surprising if the bill to increase the duty on
binding Irvine should be passed at the next
session of congress. Trusts are the offspring
Of the Republican party, and that party
has never yet shown any unwillingness to
| support them.

There appears to be pretty clearly de-
fined impression that Congressman Cannon,
of Illinois, will be defeated. His vulgarity
in congress has aroused a great deal of OPP
position to him In his own party. 1t is as
serted that he is asking his friends whether
he had not better withdraw In order to save
the district to the republicans. With about
sixteen republican papers openly fighting
him in the district, he feels that the outlook
is very discouraging. Some of his friends
claim that if he remains on the track he
will be the means of defeating the legisla-
tive and other tickets, as he is dead
weight to carry. 1t will be known in few
days at what decision Congressman Cannon
win arrive. 1t looks as if he were dead
political duck. If such should prove to be
the case no regrets will be expressed.
