Blaine After South American Trade.

Blaine After South American Trade.
Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June 22.-Referring to
the published stories concerning the
scene in the room of the committee on
appropriations the other day, q gentle
man who was present said that the affair
had been greatly mIsapprehendei. The
discussion which took place was not in
relation to the general schedules of the
Mckinley bill, but the feature which was
SO sharply condemned was that of giving
free entrance into the United States to
the products of sugar planters of the
southern continent, and not asking in
return free markets for the products of
our own farmers where we can get them
merely for the asking. Mr..
Blaine has been working on
this point ever since he returned
to public life and he always speaks very
earnestly when he discusses the question
of reciprocity and the South American
trade. Blaine says that nothing could
so directly and greatly benefit American
farmers as to open free markets among
40 ZOO, 200 of people for breadstuffs and
provisions, which can easily be done by
exchanging the duty on sugar instead of
giving it away. Blaine says that corn
would not be selling in Nebraska for
eighteen cents bushel if the markets of
Latin America were open TO our products.
He thinks it would be great mistake
to postpone even for single month the
opportunity now presented to secure
South American trade.

JEFFERsoNvILLE, IND, June 22.-So-
cisl circles in this city were startled yes
terday by the rumor of a proposed duel
between two prominent and popular
young men, Wilbur Wing and Charlie
Benson. The stories of the quarrel
which led up to the dueling
point in some respects are wide
ly different. The name OF q beautiful
soclety leader was first used in connection
with the affair. Now friends and ae-

Indignantly deny this part OF the rumor.

COOP NNslc,
The Concerts at the Pavilion Yesterday were
Much Enjoyed.

The Concerts at the Pavilion Yesterday were
Much Enjoyed.
The concerts given at the Pavilion
yesterday afternoon and evening by q
band of picked musicians under the d.
rectorship of Professor Ault were artisti-
cally superb, and were accorded an en-
couraging patronage.
1t is cause for congratulatiou that the
unsteady inclined people of Fort Worth
and those having desire to devote a
air under pleasant circumstances have at
last been given an opportunity to indulge
their tastes. The Rosedale pavilion is
airily situated, so that those who Ioiter
there revel in a ser of purest ozone waite d
over the city from the prairies to the
southwark. Add TO this luxury the
charm of sweet music, and the advocate
of quiet Sunday recreation at popular
prices ought to recognize his ideal.
The patronage extended the concerts
yesterday was such as to encourage the
musicians TO continue the series during
the summer. The people were of the
entirely respectable class.
The music rendered was first-class in
every respect. Prof. AuIt has been SO
fortunate as to secure several soloists of
more than ordinary merit, a fact ap-
preciated by the audiences, which were
loud in their applause of each number
rendered, whether solo or concerted.
The programmes were frst-class. COM

Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, June 22.-Ned Williamson, the
big good natured short stop of the Chicago
players league club, who has been incapacita-
ted all season by a sore arm, was in the city for
q few hours yesterday morning. All sorts OF
rumors concerning his absence from Captain
Comiskey's club for the past ten days have been
in circulation. One was to the effect that he
would return 70 the national league. This one

BLAINE AND HARRISON OPPOSE IT.
Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, June 22.-The presi-
dent, it is said, is opposed to both
the Lodge election bill aud
the Rowen election bill, and
that he has announced this opinion
to no less parsonage than Senator
Quay. He realizes that the adoption Of
such radical measures would lead
to condition of affar5 in
the South that would make
his administration exceedingly unpleas-
ant, to say the least, and Is for milder
measures. The Reed programme of force
has been distasteful TO him from the
start, and the more so as it has devel-
oped. The move has wldened the polit-
ical relations between the president and
the speaker. In these views Mr.. Har-
rison is warmly seconded by Secretary
Blaine. In fact, it is said the premier Is
averse to any change IN the
present election laws, while
the president thinks they should be al
we'll as city districts. The opinion is
freely quoted as coming from Mr.. Blaine
that the enactment of laws as radical as
those proposed would lead to bloodshed
in the South, unsettle things in the
North, and might produce a revulsion
that would surely defeat the Republican
candidate in 1892.
THE DEMOCRATIC OUTLOOK.
A prominent Democratic member said
to-day that the Federal election law had
no terrors whatever for him. alt is in
tended, - said he, ''to operate in the
South and 10 enable the clerk of the
house to exclude duly elected Southern
congressman from the rolls sufficient in
numbers TO give them the next house.
They have bitten off , however, more than
they can chew. We shall carry the next
house by an overwhelming majority.
and our great increase will
come from the North. We
shall gain two in California, one
in Montana and one and perhaps two in
Connecticut; three IN Illinois, one in
Indiana, one in Iowa, two in Michigan,
one in Massachusetts,, two in Maryland,
one in Minnesota, three in Missouri and
New Hamp ire, one in New Jersey, one
in New York, three in Ohio and four in
Pennsylvania. At least twenty five
gains on the North are certain and 1 am
sauguine we shall do still better. Do
you think they can count that out? l

Pennsylvania POLITICS.

The Pennsylvania campaign grows
Interesting as it progresses. Mr.. KEN
NEDY's remark, that 1.-THE Republican
party cannot afford to follow the lead of
a branded criminal" seems to have
made an impression upon the Pennsyl-
vania voters, and as a result MATT
QUAY's candidate is dropping out of
sight. DELAMATER has abandoned
state issues, and is now trying to whoop
up the campaign On national questions.
This IS construed into an evidence of
weakness on the part of the QUAY
faction. The cloud of dust raised
around the tariff doesn't obscure
QUAY's record, nor can DELAMATER's
corruption, while in the state legis-
%lature, be pieced out with extraneous
drapery. The Pennsylvania Demo-
Gratis, under the leadership of the gal
liant PATTIsON, are making a wonder
fully aggressive campaign, and have al
ready driven Quay and DELAMATER
into their last bitches. Advices from all
parts of the state bring intelligence that
the Republicans are breaking away
from QUAY in focks. In Pittsburg and
Allegheny City the Republican bolt
amounts to a revolution, and even pious
JOHN WANAMAKER will not be able to
hold Philadelphia in line. Unless
mighty changes are effected between
now and November it may be con-
fidently predicted that PATTIsoN's ma
jority will reach $4,000. And if it does,
what a black eye the MCKINLEY bill
will get.

Recent letters from newspaper CORE
spondentS in Ireland picture the situa-
ton i'll reference to the blight of the
potato in hues that it is to be hoped are
too darkly colored. There is no doubt
that there will be a serious shortage.
but it is impossible that there should be
anything to suggest the frightful times
in the three years from 1916 to 1917,
when the great staple of the land failed.
The means of obtaining relief would be
greater and more available. Ireland is
nov a power in English politics. The
government would be prompt and gen.
erous in its provisions, and the demands
would in any probable event be vastly
less. The population of the island is
several millions less. An accepted au-
thority has put the victims of that terri
BILE calamity at 1,029, 600. 1t seems in
credible that in the middle of the
nineteenth century and in the. radius OF
the highest civilization one-eighth of
the population of Ireland could have
persisted from lack of food. All ma
tions responded molly to the call for
aid, and the English parliament some
what tardily appropriated a considera-
BILE but insufficient sum. A million peo-
pie left the country during the period
of distress. The present population is
hardly more than 100000 in place of
5000, 900 a half-century ago. There can
be no such suffering now. This coun-
try might not have many potatoes to
spare. but would respond as freely as
on the former occasion to any appeals
from the distressed in Ireland. But
there cannot be anything to compare
with the famine of 1917.

THE NEXT GOVERNOR.

The Democratic party is much in
debted to Ireland for some of its most
redoubtable and accomplished cham
pions. The Democratic nominee for
governor of Minnesota, Hon. Thomas
Wilson, was born in Ireland in 1927. He
is a man of great ability and of deserved
popularity.-Philadelphia Record.

OF something more tangible TO say
against the Democratic nominee for gov

AS Congressman DUNNELL is the
chairman of the committee that will re-
port the electoral bill. considerable con-
sequence is given the apportionment
bill he introduced the past week. 1t
looks like a very fair bill. and the ratio
of $4,000 quite reasonable. Noimputa-
ton OF excessive ~partisanship may at
tach to it, but the Republicans figure
out that the ratio allows them to rear
special benefits from the fractions in
Republican states. They insist also
that under it they can elect their presi-
dent without New York. The total
electoral vote will be 443, requiring 222
to elect. The states carried by HARRI-
son are given 249 votes, or 81 more than
a majority. Taking out New York will
leave them 9 short, but the six
new states will have 20 votes, all
but three of which are claimed
by the Republicans. The Democrats
can give the Republicans all the new
states and all the states carried by HAIR
RIsoN in 1888, anil still have 224, OF two
more than votes enough to elect, if they
have New York and Indiana. They are
quite as certain to carry Indiana as New
York. 1t is possible the Republicans
may be able to work out some ratio that
will enable them to elect without either
Indiana or New York, but the Demo-
Gratis expect to carry Rhode Island, and
fight for Ohio. Iowa, Michigan. Illinois
and several other states. At this dis
lance it does not look as if the Republi-
cans could figure up an apportionment
that will give them much show for the
next president if the Democrats hold
New York and Indiana.
