The duty fixed by tho Mckinley bill
as reported to the Senate on common
brown earthenware, common stone
ware, and crucib!es not ornamented or
decorated in any manner" is 25 per cent
This is the same rs II Is now, except in
one item where IL has been raised from
20 to 25 per cent
The duty on cotton thread-except on
tho very cheapest kind-has been ad-
yanced from IS to Is, 20 to 49, and 25 to
2s cents pounl. The 81 and 3s cent
duties are unchanged. The tax OF AS
cents pound is increased to one OF 80
per cent Another very considerable
increase" which is 'believed to be nee
essary" because of sharp foreign COM
pet tion." is that on collars and cuffs
composed entirely Of cotton. The in
crease is considerable; 1t being from 40
pcr cent, to 10 cents dozen and S5 per
cent, 30 cents dozen and 35 per cent,
and TO 60 per cent
In short, II any individual with grain
OF sense or g.immer OF manhood were
to study this scandalous bill as 1t was
reported by tho Senate Finance Com
mittee, he would swear eternal war
against tho party which is responsible
for 1t, AMI against every man who voted
for it. Its iniquities stand revealed on
every page. 1t is q brutal piece OF leg
islation, and Is wholly in the interest OF
the rich and powerful.

There are some instructive things
revealed by an inspection of tho cutlery
paragraph OF the metal schedule OF the
Tariff bill now in the Senate. The
duty, under the existing law, on pocket
knives OF all kinds is so per cent That
would seem to be high enough, but 1t
is not as the following schedule Of the
new duties will show:
All kinds OF pocket and pen knives,
erasers etc, valued at 80 cents and un-
der dozen-duty, IL cents dozen and
so per cent; valued at so cents to sl.50
a dozen-duty, 80 cents dozen and
80 per cent; valued at 81. so to $500 a
dozen-duty, 81 dozen and 80 per cent |;
valued at over IS dozen-duty, 50 a
dozen and 80 per cent
Twelve cents dozen on knives worth
80 cents is equivalent to duty Of "a
per cent, which. added TO the so per
cent, raises the tariff tax on the cheap
est knives 10 "a per cent at the least.
Knives worth 81 a dozan arc taxed 100
por cent, and so through the schedule.
These things arc nccessarles, and they
are, for the most part used for pacific
and praiseworthy purposes
The next item in this paragraph in
cludes swords, sword blades and side
arms. On these articles the duty OF S5
per cent remains the same. A very
beautiful poem, written by James Shir-
ley has this line:
somie m'n with sw damay reap heir fe d !:
But the Amcr.can farmers do not it
is believed, belong to that class. Many
OF them would not know what to dow Ia
a sword II thcy had one. SO. as they
don't buy swords to any great cxtcnt IL
was useless to advance the duty. II 1t
werc put too high, the farmer wonld
simply swear oil on swords.
Kn vcs, however, he must have; hcncs
up goes tue duty.

TAXATION BY PROCLAMATION.

rropos'tlon That Progresses u edward
Tnxat On iiy Execut We Proclamation
The proposed amendmentt0 the Tariff
bill authorizing the President to put on
and take OF duties at his pleasure is
pra ticc is known in any really civilized
nation In the world to-day Kings and
Emperois used TO have this power to
levy taxes. But the English Kings lost
that power, SO far rs England was con-
cerned, when Charles !. lost his head,
over two hundred years ago. And this
right to impose and collect taxes with
out the consent OF Parliament had been
denied by the best authorities long be-
fore It was successfully resisted. But
whom Presi lent llarrison's ancestor
voted for the cxecut on OF Charles |. he
helped TO vote this stretch of tyranny
out OF existence.
1t does seem that our public men are
losing the instinct Of freedom. They
are blind TO the teachings OF history.
The schooling they have had has un-
fitted them to legislate for free peo-
pic, living under free institutions.
What We have won aftor centuries OF
strugg trial by jury, popular repre-
senta tion, limited Executive authority,
local self-government tho supremacy
OF the civil over the military power
they troat as OF no kind OF importance.
So we have system which taxes one
man for the benefit OF another; set OF
navigation laws which would disgrace
community of Barbary pirates; a despot
in the chair OF this popular branch OF
the National Legislature; boun ties; force
bills, and now this mad scheme which
proposes to give one man the power to
tax the sxty-fve million people OF the
United States.
1t is not likely that the amendment
will bo adopted, so that 1t is chiefly
dangerous for whatitindicates. Though
right In the no OF march OF our legis-
latlon land the discouraglng thing is,
that the tendency seems to be in this
diroct!on) it is so very outrageous that
the country will not stand it. II this
attempt will only open the eyes of the
people TO tho perls ahead Of them in
the path which they are travelling, the

THE PEOPLES TICKET.

The Peoples municipal convention com.
pleted its work yesterday afternoon. The
result of the night and days deliberation,
canvass and ballotlng is presented this
morning in the ticket which appears on
this page. THE HERALD promised that
there would be good ticket. The character
of the delegates was OR warrant for the
promise. They were clear-headed, repre-
sentative citizens; they were chosen by
unusually well attended primaries, and
after such thorough canvass of men as
has seldom taken place. They came directly
from the people and knew the peoples
wishes Most conscientiously and intelli-
gently have they performed their duties,
and most literally has our prediction been
verified The ticket is a good and grand
one. 1t is strong everywhere; 1t is clean
In every part; there is neither weak man
nor dirty spot in the entire array. 1t is
unassailaole from any standpoint; to at
tempt it one must indulge in SANDER and

one, and that which will recommend it

representative character. All the better

is none of the odor of the carpet-bagger

THE ELECTION JUDGES.

THE HERALD, in behalf not merely of the
Peoples party but of decent men and
women of this city, appeals to the Utah
commission this morning to be fair and
just IN the designation of the election
judges. The commission should realize by
this time how great a wrong it did when
1t appointed the deputy registration Of
Ulcers. Developments have demonstrated
that these appointments were little less
than outrageous. Official duties were
never performed in a more partial and
partisan manner than by the deputies. One
party was favored in every way possible,
and the other was badgered, annoyed
and Disseminated against most shame
July. The treatment to which the
People were subjected was scandalous.
while f1agrant abuses of power character
lied the conduct of some of the officials.
Scores and scores of men known to be lack
ing IN the qualification of electors were
listed, and it is charged that registration
was done along the Rio Grande Western
railway, the names of the men illegally
listed being given, as well as the date on
which the officials registered them. And
the registration being concluded, what
could be more scandalous than the demand
by the registrars that they be nominated to
the offices as a reward for services to their
party While in the performance of an Off
clal duty calling for the utmost i'm
Partially! Only one thing could be
more scandalous, and that was the acced-
ing to the outrageous demand, the party
recognizing the value of the service and
giving four OF the five registrars what they
asked
Having been compelled by the presenta-
ton OF lndisputable facts to recognize that
great wrong was done in the selection of
registrars, the commission should be ey
tremely careful in the designation of
judges of elect IN. We ask that responsi-
blem men be nam I'd for these places-men
who have a standing in the community.
men with names which they value and care
to protect, and men who can be brought to
account Tor wrong-doing We mean by
this, men of character, of respectability
and of property. The taxpayers have |
right to ask this at the hands eff the COM
mission, and to protest against anything
less. We have had enough of adyenturers
and OF irresponsibility in office, and now
ask a return to responsibility and responsi- |
bility
