Tariff-reform declared for by the Re-
publican party was decided By some OF
its leaders to mean a tariff greatly In.
creased and the rank and file of Repub.
lican congressman came into line. They
committed grave error. They did not
represent the true sentiment of their
constituencies. They were rebuked at
the polls by their friends. There was
no Democratic tidal wave but a Repub-
lican tidal wave which swept every
thing before it.

must live up to what are its real prin-

the party has been held and its leaders
must obey the dictates of that caucus.

There is an occasional imbecile or

THE NEW CONGRESS.

1t Will Be Democratic and Protect the
Rights of tho People.
The industrial and economical condi-
lions of tho country were such that
change of the party in power in the Ma.
tional House of Representatives was
imperativcly required. The people
went to tho polls and by their ballots
created this change. They rebuked the
present administration and the tariff
policy of the Republican majority in
power. They served notice on Speaker
Reed, the creature of the protected
monopolists, that his course as dictator
was not sanctioned by his real masters,
and their action was evidence that they
did not propose to see the would-be
cars and imperialists further throttle
the people and strengthen their hold on
the throat of liberty by passing the in
famous force bill at the next session.
The legitimate result of the change
in tho complexion of the House will be
the deposing of Reed from his throne;
the election of Democratic speaker;
the repeal or modification of the McKin-
ley bill, and the killing of the infamous,
un-American and menacing force bill,
which was devised solely for the pur-
pose Of packing the House and holding
a majority in the interests of the pluto.
| Gratis.
| There will doubtless be strong oppo-
sition developed in the Senate among
the agents and conservators of the pro-
tected barons to any change in the Nc
Kinley tariff, but it remains to be seen
whether they dare override tho will OF
| the people, as expressed by a vast ma
jority of over 1900, 900 votes.
The election was practically civil
revolution.
Owing to the long term tho Repub.
licans will continue to hold the Senate
for long time to come, but it is more
| than probable that such tariff-reform
Republicans as Paddock. Plumb and
Pettigrew, and possibly Allison and
| Cullom, who have seen the effect of the
iniquitous tariff robbery on the voters
in their own States, will lead the move
ment for the repeal or modification of
the bill. There will remain the veto
power in the hands of the President.
and it is scarcely probable that in the
face of the returns from his own State
and hitherto Republican districts
throughout the country he will dare
exercise his prerogative and boldly
show the country that he is the plant
tool of the protected and exacting
plutocrats of trade. Chicago Globe.

BREATHING NIGHT AIR.
Extract From a Lecture by j. II. Kellogg
N. D.. of Battle Creek Sanitarinm.

Extract From Lecture by j. II. Kellogg
~. D., of Battle Greek sanitarium.
The question may we'll be asked have
we any other air to breathe at night
than night air? If the out-of-door air
is saturated with moisture, does not the
air within doors contain the same? 1t
is certainly healthier to breathe night
air which is pure than to breathe the
air of room which has been shut up
until the small quantity OF night air
which it conta MS is thoroughly con-
taminated by being breathed over and
over again. A New York doctor some
time ago had horror of night air, and
be recommended that the doors and
windows of the house, especially of
sleeping rooms, be opened wide during
the day until they were we'll filled with
good healthy day air and then closed.
At night the occupants were to slip in
as quickly as possible that none OF the
deadly night air should find entrance.
He claimed thata bedroom containing
1000 cubic feet of ARA room ten feet
square-contained oxygen enough for
one person forty nights or for forty per-
sons one night, since sixteen cubic feet
of oxygen is all that person can con-
sumo in that period of time. The
mathematics look very conclusive,
but the figures lie because the
theory upon which they are based
is false. 1t is not that we
consume so large an amount Of oxygen
that makes the necessity for generous
supply of fresh air, but that the impuri-
ties which we throw off through the
breath con taminates so much air. For
every cubic inch of fresh air which we
take in, we exhale a cubic inch of the
rankest peterborough to contaminate
three cubic feet of air. Counting the
number of inhalations at twenty per
minute, we spoil then, sixty cubic feet
of air every minute. On this basis, the
thousand cubic feet of air which the
New York doctor thought srficient for
forty nights, would be good only for
about seventeen minutes if the room
were perfectly inclosed. Fortunately
for those who approximate this shutrin
pan, the walls OF our houses are more
or loss porous and there are few win,
dows so perfectly encased that they Dc
nss admit some fresh air constantly

The sweeping Democratic victory OF
November 4, extending practically all
over the United States, was due simply
to the dissatisfaction of the people with
the provisions of the Mckinley bill.
There was no other general issue. The
voters of the United States have de-
clared that they do not want tariff Of
the sort imposed by that measure. 1t
matters but little that the nature Of
the bill may not have been fully under

THE BOULOGNE CONFERENCE.
Parnen and O'Brien Discuss Ways and Mean,
OF Harmony.

ParneM and o'Brien Discuss Ways and Mean.
Of Harmony.
Shortly after landing at Boulogne yesterday
Mr.. Parnell went to the Hotel du Louvre where
he eventually met Mr.. William O'Brien, who
had come from Amiens, accompanied by Mr.. T.
P. Gill. Mr.. Parneii and Mr.. OBrien retired
TO private room, which had been engaged by
telegraph. where the two leaders remained in
conference for about half an hour. At the ex-
piration Of that time they had luncheon TO-
gether, seeming to be on very good terma
After luncheon it was unanimously decided
that only Irish members Of parliament should
take part in the conferences; consequently
Messrs. Scully and O'Byrne were excluded from
the meeting which took place during the after
noon between the Irish leaders.
The conference was conducted In o very ami
mated manner. Many kilograms were sent
during the day to London by both Parnell and
O'Brien.
The leaders issued the following announce
ment: ''Messrs. parnen and OBrien met here
today. They had q prolonged conversation,
which will be resumed in few days"
The Pal Mall Gazette stated last evening that
Mr.. Parnell proposes that his formal reelection
as chairman by the whole Irish parliamentary
party shall preceds his withdrawal from the
Craftsmanship until the next general election is
held, The GozeHe does not give its authority
for this statement.
Mr.. Timothy Harrington, at a meeting of,th
National League in Dublin yesterday, said that
although the American press did its utmost to
strike down Mr.. Parneli an American audience
would not listen to a man who raised his voice
against Mr.. Parnell. Mr.. Harrington added
that he was confident Sir John Pope Hennessy
would be unseated and that the minority would
accept any compromise arrangement which
might be agreed upon between Messrs. Parnell
and O'Brien.

FOR THE AMERICAS CUP.
Lieut.. Hepn. the Owner of the Galatea, Wants
Another "Try" for It.

Another "Try" for 1t.
Among .ae passengers on the Cunard steam
ship Umbria, which arrived at New York yes
terday, was Lieut. ". HEM, R.N., owner Of the
yacht Galatea, which was beaten by the May
flower for the Americas cup in 1886. Lieut..
Hem was asked the reason for his visit to
America. He said: ~ am here for a fishing and
hunting trip to Florida. I have a small boat
down there and shall start in a few days. In
the meantime, am going to see the members
OF the New York Yacht Club to ascertain if
arrangements can be made for an interna-
tional race for the Americas cup next year.
The only objection which is made in England
to the new deed Of gift is the measurement
clause. 1t is too binding and gives but little
latitude to designer. l am going TO find out
whether that par ticular clause can be waived
under the mutual agreement clause in the
deed, and II 1t can and will be ] am author
lied to say that challenge will be issued at
once"
who will issue the challenge and what will
be the size of the boat?'
THE PROPOSED MATCH
II cannot say anything further on that
point" Lieut.. HEM replied. "The boat will
be a seventy -footer, however. If the New
York Yacht Club agrees to the proposition the
yacht will be ready. The general idea seems
to be that the reason Thistle was beaten by
Volunteer was that the foresfoot was cut away
too much. That, however. is incorrect, as the
newer boats built by Watson are cut away still
more, and yet they sail into the wind very
much better. 1t is not the windward work in
which they are at fault, but in running. They
do not steer well. Thistle will not race during
the coming season and shall have nothing 10
race with. An international race is sadly
needed on both sides of the water in order to
revive interest in yachting. That is the rea-
son why l take 80 much pleasure in trying to
succeed"
Lieut.. Hem was asked If there was any
probability of ninety-footer being built to
challenge for the Americas cup in case his
negotiations should fall through and he de-
clared that he did not think 30
