rHEFORCE BILL.

The Federal Election Bill has passt
the House by a mean majority OF IS
votes and there is hardly doubt br1
what the President will atfiy his sign;
cure and it will become a law.
In the Senate we are assured tn;
here is no opposition to its passas
aud there is no hope that it will rue
With any stumbling block in that augu'
assemblage.
The bill was aimed at the Sout.
There is an impression in the minds
II Republicans that the elections
thse soction are unfair. This impre
sion, it seems, caruot be eradicate
aud perhaps the Force bill will q
more toward this end than anyth.r
else. When the Republicans see thcI
the returns are about the same as usu,l
it is possible that they may be COZ
rinced.
The TIMES opposed the measu.
from its introduction. We believe
that it was contrary to the letter al
spirit of the constitution. Centraliz, :
ton is one of the great evils Of the hop
and when the great election machinei J
Of the country is put in the hands q
any party the tendency toward co.
ruption can hardly be stopped.
IF President HARRISON wants to 7
trieve himself in the eyes Of the COP
ssrvative people of the United Stats
lie could take step in that directio
by putting his vete on the Force bill.

The Contested Election Cases.

The House is making good progress in
unseating Democrats occupying seats to
which they are not entitled. Both Smith
and Atkinson, Republican contestants
from West vi ginia-fairly elected and
so shown upon the face of the returns in
each case, but defrauded in their right by
a Democratic G oyernor, him> elf the ben
eficiary OF fraud-have been seated. The
Democratic members in the Atkinson case
went through the farce of declaring them
selves leg slatively absent while hysic-
ally present and taking part in the dis
cussion.
The margin of majorities was small in
the West irginia cases. In the next case
which is likely to come up before the
committee on an honest vote freely cast
aud fairly counted the Republican con-
testant would have been elected by an
overwhelming majority. The case comes
from the Third Mississippi ID strict,
James f. Hill. Republican, contesting
the seat which T. c. Catchings has stolen
from him. OF the twenty eight seats
stolen from the Republicans in the cotton
States, including one also in Tennessee
the Tenth District), this is one of the
cl Arrest and most outrageous thefts.
There are in the Third Mississippi Dis
trict - 692 votes, and the average Repub-
lican ma or ty in an hon st election would
be somewhere between 1900 and IA 900
votes. At the Congressional election,
which was conducted on the most approved
Mississippi Democratic methods. Catch
ings received IL, 62l votes and Hill but
4,6l3. There were Is, 49, votes that dis
appeared altogether. he Mississippi
methods affect figures in many strange
ways. Catchings alleged majority |. st
Ill was 7,0ll, bnt at the Pres dential
election Gle Gland had SOP and Harri-
son 1924 votes. Is Catchini nineteen
times rs popular as Cleveland was in that
district! The real secret of tn juRgery
with figur to be found in the methods.
At the solid Republican precincts no
election was held. In the others Repub-
lican votes were taken out Of the ballot
boxes by fistfuls and Democratic ones
were substituted. The Federal Super
visors could not change results as they
we're quietly invited to leave the polls,
and when they declined we're forced away.
The contestant in this case Is a co ored
man. He ~ reported to he brir ht, able
man and one who will make useful
member. AS he is clearly entitled to the
seatlout of which he has b, en- cheated
and should be not have it? If a Democrat
was contest'ng his BE { from a district
in a Northern State, and could show that
he had been swindled out of several
thousand votes, he would get it. There
would be no Republic IN opposite on to it.
Why then sho Id there be any Demo-
cratic opposition TO the claim which Hill
makes for the return of his stolen prop

What Free Trade Has Done.

Tho gentlemen who assure us that free
trade stimulates home manufactures as
we'll as foreign exchange are requested to
ponder tho Following facts and figures,
borrowed from Fair Trade, an English
journal OF economies:
Since the introduction of the Golden
ian n Icy of free imports, and the nboli-
tion OF any protection VIII tever OF tive

fallen off considerably more than one

ricultur | laborers h we been thrown

dockers, or TO fight among numbers for
anv chance Job Of wre chedly paid and
unskilled labor. And VIII Il has been the
fate of other skilled industries for which
we were once famous? In 1859, Just before
the Cobdenian treaty with FIR nee, our
silk industry found direct employment
for 40. 900 souls. and imported for the pur-
poses of manufacture clio, So, g 9 worth of
raw silk; in 1885 the number OF persons

boy and every lgirl may become full
fedged 'skilied' worker! What can that
skill avail SO long as the work of the
equally skilled foreigner is admitted on
more favored terms 10 compete with il?
1T may be contended that our cotton
trade has increased during the period
specified. Just SO; but that is because
the cotton manufacture has been the
spoilt child among British industries,
even to the extent of having n special
protection accorded to it in the shape of
u virtual bounty"
II is we'll to remember that Professor
Taussig, who is not a protectionist, has
declared that the protective tariff of the
United States has created the silk manu-
features OF the United States. Free trade
well-nigh has killed the silk manufact-
ures of Great Britain.
While the British production of wheat
has diminished one-half since l84S, the
beginning of the free trade era, the Amer
ican production of food has increased
nearly three-fod since 1860, the begin
ming of our protective era. The increase
of Britain's commerce during the free
trade era has been in Woolens, cotton
goods, and iron. But two protective ma
tons latterly have been supplying many
OF the markets which once were Britain s
commercial dependencies. The United
States, which consumes $3.50, 900, 900
worth of WOODEN goods every year, now
manufactures $500, 600. 10000 worth of
them. Germany is making most OF her
own cotton goods, and nearly all of her
own iron ware. The United States has
become second only to Britain in the
manufacture of iron and steel. aud now
manufactures and sells as cheaply as
Gre It Britain.
Germany, which until the adoption Of
a protective policy exported vast quanti-
ties of grain, now finds home market
for her home produce; the United States,
which once had other little business than
that of supplying Britain with cheap
wheat" for lis cheap laborers, now finds
home market for all but 3 per cent. of
it's farm products. and for all but . per
cent. of its food products. While land
continually is relapsing TO grass in En-
gland. new areas of grain continually
are being planted in America. While En-
glands greatest statistician is declaring
that longer hours, fewer holidays, and a
less expensive style of living" must be
adopted to secure the retention of such
markets of the world" ns are left to
her, American laborers are demanding an
eight hour day, legal holidays are in
creasing in number, and the latest re-
port of the Commissioner of the Bureau
of Labor Statistics shows an increase of
wages in most trades Inter Ocean
