The Louisville C0urier-Journal says of
reciprocity: at is true the scheme did
not get into the Mckinley bill in the form
in which it is supposed that Mr.. Blaine
first proposed it. But it is to be remem-
bered that Mr.. Blaine accepted the change
without complaint, and on the stump held
up the reciprocity amendment for the ad-
miration of the voters" And it is evident
that the voters understood the situation
exactly, and that they voted as they did
not so much to reinstate the Democracy,
as to rebuke the stupidity that crippled
the idea of reciprocity, and so warped it
out of shape in the tariff bill, that it is
unrecognizable. When the voters get a
fair and square opportunity to pass upon
the policy of commercial reciprocity, they
will indorse it with as much emphasis as
they condemned the Mckinley bill

PREMIER SALISBURY.
He Addresses the House of ords on I'm
portant Matters.

LONDON, November 25;h.-In the House
Of Lords tonight Premier Salisbury, in an
address, said he would not say that Eag-
land s trade with Africa and the colonies
would Immediately compensate her fer the
loss caused by the new American tariff,
bat it would be the motive for preventing
the territories in Africa from faliisg into
the hands Of nations exercising prohibition
trade. 1t was lamen,ab!y true that the
colonies did not allow the motherland in
free trade, yet it vas fact tnat the trade OF
Australia increased faster than elsewhere.
Replying to queries, he said he could not
discuss the recent financial crisis, as the
negotiations in progress were Of contiden-
;ial character.
Regarding the troubles in Tiperary be
said the League combination there tended
to defraud, Cypress and coerce honest trade.
The task of restoring prosperity to Ireland
would be hopeless unless such combina-
tons were destroyed. The Government

land in Ireland, thus creating a moral and

attempts of political agitation.

but its body failed to provide the compul-
sion-it did no more than to declare a
truism, that it is the duty of the citizen to
register and to vote.
The best thought does not support the
proposition that electors should be COM
PEELED to vote. Casting the ballot is the
right of an American sovereign; it is like
wise an inestimable privilege and duty.
But if one does not exercise it voluntarily
it is not that free-will expression which
| the fundamental idea of self-government
contemplates. Conscience should stand
behind the ballot, and there are times
when conscience may bid the voter to stay
his hand. The scruple may be ill-founded,
and all that, but it is nevertheless to be
respected as the scruple of conscience.
| Our Constitution does not pronounce vot-
ing to be an obligation that must be dis
charged under pain of penalty. The right
of the citizen to withhold his ballot is,
therefore, as invincible as is his right to
vote. 1t might be well enough TO offer in
ducements to men TO vote who otherwise
would be classed among the indiferents.
Some civic privileges or exemptions as en-
| enlargement might attach to the citizen
who, having the physical capacity, goes to
the polls and votes but the idea of afix-
ing penalties by way of punishment for
non-voting is not one that free American
spirit can contemplate with indifference.
The better policy is to leave the voter as
free as is possible from direction as to his
voting duty, and not attempt to visit fines
and imprisonment or any similar punish
ment upon those who refuse to vote
Mr.. REED is reported as complaining
that manufacturers who demanded the pas
sage of the Mckinley bill, after getting
what they wanted, Immediately proceeded
to raise prices and thus disgust the people
with the new law. But it would be well
to inquire if the manufacturers did more
than exemplify the true spirit of the bill?
II raised prices along certain lines in the
interest of manufacturers, and therefore in
vited them to profit by its suggestion. 1t
was perfectly natural that this should
operate to push up prices on many domes-
tic lines not directly legislated upon in the
bill. But the trainers of that great mis-
take should have had the prescience to
have seen that these would be its effects.
Had they taken up sincerely the reci-
procity suggestion of Mr.. Blaine, and have
given it the calm examination that its
merit commands for ii, the mistake"
would not have been made law, and the
Republican party would not have been put
bag and baggage out of the House, as it
has been by the command of the people.
