Protected New York.

Bend your ear, gentle reader, and
hear what the New York Tribune has
to say:
'Isolated cases of starvation and
misery can always be found in such
great cities as London and Paris, an
sometimes in New York, bpt it seldom
happens that even under the worst con-
ditions, hundreds OF men, women and
children can be found actually dying
for want of nourishipg food, while
thousands more are living on a mere
pittance, insufficient to satisfy the
cravings of hunger, but in this, the
richest city in the western hemisphere
any reader of the Tribune can in a
few minutes walk from Broadway find
and see just such people for himself.
1t is on the East side, in the tenement
houses of Essex, Orchard, Norfolk,
Suffolk, Ludlow and Sheriff streets, in
the homes of the striking coakmakers
that misery, sickness, hunger and
want reign. In this quarter there
can be met on every block women not
yet 25 years old who are haggard and
gray, and out of whose eyes has long
departed all hope of mitigation of
their misery"
Zounds! Does the leading protec-
tion organ mean to tell us that such
misery exists before the very doors of
the custom house 7 Does it mean to
say that with the republican party in
absolute control of governmental af-
fairs and with a tariff machine of its
own construction running at full speed
hundreds of men, women and chill
dren can be found actually dying for
want of nourishins food 7" This is,
indeed, dark picture to paint from
life, not IN free trade England, but in
protected New York.-Patriot

Business Against Turbulence.

The Press is one of the very few
party organs that promptly responded
to Chairman Bslden's command, is-
sued by order of Speaker Reed, direct
ing party dependents and expeotants
to unite in the effot to whip a hesi-
tating Senate into obedience to party
orders by the passage of the Force
Election bill. 1t was only logical that
the desperate coercive policy to force
the passage of revolutionary election
measure aud its inevitable turbulence
in the South, aroused Northern bust
ness men, who are identified with
Southern business interests, to earnest
protest; and aIhong the many thou
sands of these protestants in Philadel-
phia is Hamilton Disston. He de.
clares that he considers it dangerous
for the business interests OF the coun-
try to pass the Federal election bill
now under consideration in the Sem
ate" To this protest of Mr.. Disston
the Press answers as follows:
We are sorry TO see that Mr.. Hamil-
ton Disston, a Republican who has
done good service for the party in the
past, is quoted as saying that he Soon
siiers it dangerous for the bus ness
interests of the country to pass the
Federal election bill which is now un-
der consideration in the Senate"
When these '@usiness interests" oc LIE
to be examined they prove to be the
investments which Mr.. Disston and
Others have made in the "New South. "
OF course, the business interests to
which Mr.. Disston refers are "the in
vestments which Mr.. Disston and
others have in the "New South" and
he is criticised for declaring for bust
ness interests and against turbulence
in the South. Pray, what better rea.
son could be given against the pas
sage of a national law than that it
would be dangerous for the business
interests of the country" Any meas
ure that disturbs legi innate business
such as is Mr.. Disston's Investments in
the South, must be prejudical to the
interests of the whole country; and
Mr.. Disston knows, from intimate per-
sonal acquaintance with the South,
that its only Practical results
would be the enormous waste of pub
lie money TO pay 100000 unneeded
Federal officials, and the Inauguration

Wallace Not Disgruntled.
HE DECLARES HIS INTENTION OF SUP.
PORTING THE TICKET.

The Patriot has printed an inter
view had with Senator William A.
Wallace just before the ex Senator's
departure in the steamer Majestic for
Europe. On being asked atout the
prospects of the Democratic State
ticket In Pennsylvania Mr.. Wallace
said that the outlook, IN his opinion,
was favorable to the election Of the
ticket
"l shall be absent from the country
until the latter part of August or the
lst OF September" said he ''and on m
return will do my part toward the sue
cess of the ticket My friends viii not
be backward in giving it their sup
port. 10 the question whether he
was entirely satisfied with the platform
adopted by the convention Mr.. Wal
lace responded:
IL regard it as an excellent deliver
anoe, though had hoped that the con-
vention would adopt a resolution de-
clarlng for constitutional convention
to remove the marked ballot provision
from the fundamental law of the State.
as do not see how a secret ballot can
be had SO long as election officers are
permitted TO mark the ballots. A
prospective educational qualification of
the voter, not disqualifying any who
are now voters or who might become
voters for five years after the adoption
OF such qualification, would also be a
wholesome provision.
'ln 1888 thousands of foreigners
who came here without any intention
OF becoming permanent residents and
who can neither read nor write were
driven to the polls like so many vot.
ing cattle by their employers, aud this
sort of thing is constantly growing.
This is especially the case in the coal
and coke regions. Something must be
done to put stop to this infamous
degradation of the suffrage, but the
Democracy can yet apply the remedy
by pledging the nominees for the
Legislature to genuine ballot reform.
The Democratic State ticket is COM
posed Of worthy men, who are entitled to
the support of the Democracy and that
fact is quite sufficient to secure their
support by old line Democrats like my
self"
Mr.. Wallace said that the business
which calls him to Europe was of such
a character that he could not afford to
neglect it, and that even if he had
been nominated for Governor he would
have been obliged to make the trip.

What the Worlds Fair Should Be.

Two things should be prominently in
view. First, that it is real celebration
we want, and not mere peddlers' fair.
We can be content with nothing less than
grand, dignifed celebration of an event
of transcendent importance to the whole
world. not alone to its industrial, but to it's
political and social, interests, as well.
Secondly, that on this occasion the United
States should appear, not for themselves
alone, but as the head and front of the
people of all the Americas, assuming the
leadership, as is righS, but associating with
themselves in the initiation and to some
degree in the conduct of the celebration,
all the other nations which owe their ex-
istence to the daring and adventurous voy
age of Columbus. Many persons think of
worlds fair as exerting it's economic in
fuence only SIS a school of industrial art ];
but this is the smaller part OF it's mission.
1t is through widening the markets for
products, through educating the taste of
consumers, through inspiring industrial
ambitions, that the worlds fair does its
greatest work. 1t is not as means to
ends already desired, but as proposing
new ends, as setting up larger and finer
objects of desire, that an exhibition. of
arts and manufactures chiefly contributes
to Industrial development Gen. Francis
