Will some free trade organ
grinder"-the Cecil County Meas
Tor instance-please tell us what ben
eft the American people derived
from the abolition of the duty on
coffee? While this commodity, of
which the United States are the
greatest consumers, was dutlable,
our ears were constantly RECALLED
with the cry, that if the duty was
only taken off, the poor mans break
fast would be wonderfully cheapened.
Yet the fact is, that when our gov
eminent abolished the tariff on it
and which amounted to twenty five
millions of dollars, the government
of Brazil Immediately imposed an
export duty on it. Since this duty
was imposed by Brazil, the price OF
coffee has been higher than ever be
fore in this country. Instead OF
cheapening the poor mans break
fast, it has increased its cost, to say
nothing of the loss to our govern
ment annually of so large sum OF
money. Now certainly the business
proposition is fair one, that if our
government discriminates in favor OF
any product of the Central or South
American Republics we are entitled
to some advantage in return. That
it is not sound policy to open our
markets to the products of those
states without having those same
markets equally open for our agrl-
cultural or manufactured products.
And this is the idea underlying
Mr.. Blaines Pan-Amerlcan Recip-
rocity Policy. By the exercise o.
the treaty-making power imposed
upon Congress, certain raw materi
ais such as crude sugars, hides and
carpet woods should be admitted free
into this country, in recognition o.
which favorable discrimination these
Central and South American mar
kets are to be opened to our Ameri-

Pennsylvania Republicans have
given Senator Quay a splendid
endorsement of good character. The
resolution passed in State convention
on Wednesday says: For the chair
man of our national committee, Nj.
S. Quay, we feel a lasting sense OF
gratitude for his matchless services
In the last presidential campaign, as
a citizen, a member of the general
assembly, as secretary of the COM
monwealth two successive admins
trations, as state treasurer, of the
overwhelming sufrages of his fellow
citizens, and as senator of the United
States, he has won and retains our
respect and confidence.
So far as ''vindication by pow
erful and controlling political organi
cation can go, he has it complete.
Only man of great intellectual force
can accomplish such results in the
face of such inveterate hostility as
Mr.. Quay has to encounter.

That troublesome Silver bill is to
be given few days rest, provided the
tree coinage men do not rally again and
take it out of the committee. It's rea-
sonably certain that there will either
be no silver bill passed at this session
and signed, or that 1t will simply pro-
vide for the coinage of 1000, 900, or
100000 ounces Per month. A cor
respondent of Baltimore paper reports
Chairman Conger, OF the House Com
mittee on Coinage, as saying on Tues
day: 81 shall not call a meeting of the
Coinage Committee until the latter
part of the week, as | want to give its
members time to circulate and gather
information and arrive at some kind of
a definite conclusion as to what they
want to do with the bill. 1t is
likely that more than one meeting will
be held before an agreement is reached,
but l think the bill will be reported
back and taken up and finally disposed
of in the House some time next week.
The House will never agree to free

Referring to the recent selection of
Mr. Barnes Compton as chairman OF
the Democratic State Central Commit.
tee. Western Maryland exchange very
pertinentlv and torclbly remarks that ''it
was supposed that Senator German
would be the chairman. But as the
recent scandalous exposures in Mary
land Democratic politics called fer re-
form, the position was given to the
trusted lieutenant instead of the chief.
To be sure this is not very radical
step IN the direction of genuine reform ;
but it is Democratic reform, and the
party must be satisfied.

Annapolis in a Storm.

ANNAPOLIS, June 23.-One of the sever
est storms ever know in Annapolis visit
ed the city last night. LightninL, hall,
wind and ram combined to make the
event terrible. The arc electric lights,
by order, were turned off during the
Storm and lett the city for brief while
in tota, darkness. The limbs of trees lay
thick on the streets when the storm was
over, and during it the fearful and near
crash of lightning was terrific. The rain
had hardly ceased before the cry of
"Firew was raised, the bells of the fire
department rang, and the word was pass
ed around that the State House was on
fire. This was at half past ten. The
whole fire department turned ont, and
with it the citizens. 1t proved false
alarm.

1t looks as though the country at large
is to be Indebted to the Democratic
party for the continuance of that curse
the Louisiana Lottery iniquity, since the
lower branch of the louisiana Legs
latule on Wednesday passed the pend
ing Lottery Bill. 1t has the majority
of the Democratic party of Louisiana
on its side to the lasting disgrace of
that organization. J. A. Morris, the
head gambler of the gang OF lottery
gamblers, addressed letter ito the
gentlemen of the .mocratic caucus"
on Monday. In it he offered to
advance two million dollars this year,
and next to repair the levees, the
money to be returned without interest
in ten years. This is in addition to
the million dollars year offered for
the lottery franchise. He thus takes
advantage OF The bad physical con
dition of the state to attempt to buv its
honor, the conclusion OF his letter
is certainly refreshing. "In conclusion, "
he says, permit me to say in regard
TO my own political views, was raised
and educated Democrat, haven't ever
been anything else, thoroughly in har-
mony with state rights doctrines, and
look to them as our greatest safeguard
in the preservation of our liberties and
our institutions" As a contemporary
pertinently remarks "the devil himself
must have laughed when he read that.

The Court of Appeals of the State OF
New York has rendered a final deci-
sion in the case of the people against
the North River Sugar Refining Com
pany. The Court sffirms the whole
some general principle that all COM
binations tending to limit production
or enhance prices are illegal and that
by becoming a party to such illegal
combination corporation tortelts. It's
charter. Separate action will have to
be taken against individual members OF
such a trust, but the ultimate effect will
be the appointment of receiver for
each corporation found violating the
law, the sale of its property and the
division of the proceeds among Its
stockholders. Genl Roger A. Pryor
counsel tor the people in interpreting
the courts decision says. This was a
test suit against trusts, and the courts
have decided that a trust 10 increase
prices is not only illegal, but that a
company by becoming member OF a
trust forfeits its charter. We have been
fighting this trust for over two years
now, and l am very glad the matter is
settled. The first thing | did was TO
draw up bill for the suppression OF
such combinations, which | presente d
to the legislature but it did not take
me long to find out that our legislators
in Albany were not as much opposed
to trusts as l was, SO l dropped that
end of the matter. Then | tried the
existing law, and found that by its APP
plIcation | could have the trust dissolv-
ed. The special term of the Supreme
Court sustained US, and although the
Sugar Trust people brought the case
to the general term on appeal, and lat
terly to the Court of Appeals, every
judgment has been in our favor. u
General Pryor did not care to talk on
the decision ID its relation to trusts
generally, but he said that the receiver
OF the North River Sugar Refining
Company would probably sell out its
property as soon as ne can get tain
chance
