THE PROPER COMPROMISES.

The deadlock on the sugar and binding
twine provisions of the tariff bill was re-
ported yesterday to be made still more
stringent by the fact that thirty of the
House Republicans have notified their con-
ferees that if the House rates on sugar are
not adhered to they will vote against the
tariff bill; while ten of the Republican Sen
ators have stated that if the binding twine
amendment OF the Senate is not preserved
they will antagonize the bill in the Senate.
This is very extreme stand. If MEM
bers take the position of fighting bill be-
cause it is wrong in one or two particulars
nearly all legislation, and tariff legislation
especially, will be impracticable. But
there is no doubt that the position of the
threatening members in both Houses is par
TALLY justified by the importance of the
principle. 1t is about the same in both
cases. The House sugar schedule prevents
the Sugar Trust from squeezing the con-
sumers, while giving it adequate protection.
The Senate's action with regard to bind
ing twine gives no more than
just punishment to combina-
tion OF much less magnitude which
has utilized the protective tariff to squeeze
the farmers of the Northwest. Both the
features for which such bold and insub-
ordinate stand is taken ought to be main
tanned, and while the threat of beating the
tariff bill is beyond reason, it is not un-
pleasant to see that there is stern deter
mination somewhere, not to let these pro-
visions 60 for the benefit Of the combina-
tions
But there is no reason why this condition
of affairs should prolong the deadlock. Let
the Senate concede to the House the latter's
schedule on sugar, and let the House accept
the Senate's amendment of free binding
twine That would be compromise to
which the public would give its indorse-
ment, and it would permit the long:drawn
out tussle with the tariff to come to an end
at once.

their stand. If the Constitution is not to be
the supreme law over the influential poll
ticians and the mighty corporations, as we'll
as over the humber citizens, or the toiling
masses, there is no stability or guarantee of
popular rights in so-called republican gov
ernment. If there is to be privileged class
free to ignore the fundamental law where their
private interest is concerned, it is time for
the people to pass on the establishment Of
such privileges by their votes. Finally,
when candidate for the highest Office in the
State, who is charged with the duty of main
tanning the enforcement of the Constitution.
is already proved by his record to have ig-
nored it where his private profit has been
concerned, there is no better way for the peo-
pie to assert the supremacy of constitutional
law than by declaring at the polls that,
however personally amiable or promising
such a candidate may be, he cannot have
their sufrages.

PENNSYLVANIA POLITICS.

HARRISBURG Telegraph (Rep.): That Dem
ocratic iunketing car that is to be run through
the State may be too crowded to make room
for the Spirit of Jefferson.
PHILADELPHIA Ne,os CDem.): There is only
one answer to the question of Delamater's
legal right to hold the office of Governor-that
is '.he hasn't any," In case Delamateris elected
he will not be assured of occupying the execu-
tive mansion.
NEWCASTLE Ne,Os (Rep.): A prominent Re-
publican expressed the tight sentiment the
other day by saying. II would rather be the
nominee OF the Harmony Convention and be
defeated than to be elected on the nomination
claimed by Mcdowell"
WILLIAmsPoRT Sun (Dem.): While Della
mater is shaking hands with the miners of the
Shenandoah Valley the poor laborers who lost
their all in the smash-up of the Philadelphia
bank. in which Delamater was interested. are
wondering how they are to keep from starving
this winter.
ALTOONA. Times (Dem.): Mr.. Miller, the
Prohtbitionist candidate for Governor, has re-
Gently declined 10 run. This is not an off-year
in politics. YOU know, and Mr.. Miller knows
that large number of the Prohibirionists feel
incumbent upon them to vote the Republican

that, after Mr.. Reed has abandoned the
task, his attempt to smash Secretary Blaine
cannot but arouse public sympathy and
sorrow for Clarkson.
The manifestation of Clarkson's deter
mination that Blaine must go, is made
through the columns of the Politician, a
journal which would never have been heard
of if it were not the ridiculus mus produced
by the mountain OF labor anent Mr.. Clark
sons intentions to break out in the field OF
journalism. In the columns of the Politician
the public is informed that Blaine is Jonah,
and the proposition is made to throw him
overheard. II he were not Jonah, says
this exquisite political logician, he would
not write so many letters, but would 60 to
work for the party, and would have sup
ported Reed in his district. Consequently
he must 60. Clarkson has spoken.
We pass over the remarkable ratiocina-
ton OF this effort to notice some points in
the comparison which may give it accept
ance People who have more knowledge OF
biblical lore than the average politician
may remember that Jonsh was the only
person on that traditional ship who ever did
anything worth preserving, or whose name
is known to subsequent generations. The
world knows little and cares less what be-
came of that crew after it threw Jonah over
board. Its only place in sacred history is
that it did throw the prophet into the sea
and after that it sinks into oblivion. Per-
haps il Clarkson and his kind should sue
ceed in their effort to throw Blaine over
board they might make an equal success in
rescuing themselves from future oblivion.
Bbt there is no such hope for even that
equivocal ambition. Clarkson's success in
declaring that fourth-class postmasters must
go may have misled him, but it does not
qualify him for the task of wiping out
figure like that of James G. Blaine. His
effort is much more likely to result in the
elimination of an infnitesimally smaller
factor in the person of James S. Clarkson.

NICKEL FOR GUN MAKING.
The Product of Canadian Mines Controlled
by IN Ohio Syndicate.


by m Ohio Syndicate.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
AKRON, September A.-Experiments just
finished at Annapolis in which was demon
strated superior resistance of armor plate made
of steel with small alloy of nickel, are pecu-
liarly interesting to Akronians. 8. j. Ritchie,
of this city, the well-known advocate of Cana
dian reciprocity, together with Judge Burke,
of Cleveland, and several other local capital
lists, own the mine at Sudbury Junction, in
Central Ontario, from which most of the
worlds future supply of nickel is to be derived.
MIR. R1tchie had an appointment to meet in
Cleveland to-day Commander Folger, Chief of
the United States Naval Ordnance, to arrange
for supplying the Government with nickel for
guns, armor plate and shot, but the meeting
will take place in Washington instead.
-Four represent atives of the Krupps, the Aus
trian gun makers, were in Cleveland to-day to
negotiate for ten years supply OF nickel from
the Sudbury mines for amor plate. Gun metal
containing 81 per cent OF nickel has been
found by the Krdpps to have greater strength
than any material now used. Andrew Carnegie
and other steel men of Pittsburg are also max
ing efforts to get large share of the nickel
now being produced at Sudbury. Garnier the
French expert who discovered nickel in New
controlled, is now in the employ of the Richie
syndicate. The company is incorporated under
the laws of Ohio, and is chartered as Canadian
Copper Company. Mr. Ritchie made success
full campaign at Washington this summer in
behalf of very large reductions in duty on
nickel, so that the output of the Canadian mines
might come over the line practically free. the
institution being to start large plant in Ohio
for manufacture of nickel, steel plate and gun
metal

Its Exports of Manganese Largely Exceed

HAVANA. September A.-In spite of the
resolution of the Intendent of the Treasury
fixing the official value of the Mexican dollar
at so cents, dealers at Cienfuegos Sagua, Santa
Clara, Ramedios, and other places freely re-
ceive the dollar at its full value.
During the month of August $500 tons of
manganese were exported from st. Jago De
Cuba Owing to the ready sale the manganese
meets with in the United States its production
is fast increasing. and the exports for Septem-
Der will be larger than ever before. The owners
of the mines have formed a syndicate to work
them themselves, some American companies
which first undertook to work the mines,
having failed to fulfill their contracts. The
exports of manganese ore from July i, 1889, to
June 80, 1890, amounted tn 2.240 tons and from
July l, to August 20, 1890, to 4.l90 tons. In
other words the Cuban syndicate exported
more in 81 days than American contractors did

Mr.. Clarksou is an amusing and instructive
