Sun comes out in leading editorial
abandoning New York's claim to the

This action is considered to be signif-

Some others are expected to vote fol
Washington as second choice.
The oun says after New York there is
but one place where there is any pros

tee. It has already been in the hands of
that committee almost month, and
may be there weeks longer. These facts
give rise to the belief that 1t is not the
intention of the leaders to pass a tariff
bill at this session. bill that would
give reasonable satisfaction to the peo-
pie is, considering the temper of the ma
jority in the house, and the pledges of
paign "slush" altogether impossible.
III the next place it would be inexpedient
and impolitic, because it would deprive
the party of an important factor in cam
paign timeswhen the jay orators are won't
to rally the brethren with the pstrioticIcry
of "protection to home industries.
The only bill that could be passed is one
framed on the lines of the Mckinley
abomination-as it is well dubbed.
But to enact that sort of measure,
when the people are clamoring for re-
duction of duties, is to invite defeat and
ruin for the party. To avoid suicidal
policy, the party must beware Of out
raging the peoples sense of fairness and
justice. To pass bill framed in the
exclusive interests of, and in fact die
tated by the factory lords, is not the
way to deal fairly and justly with the
people, and the leaders have sense
enough to know it. What, then, will
be done? Nothing.
There will probably be some cheap
monkey business of deceitful ands H.
lusory nature, some juggling with bill
in the senate, which the house won'
have. The senate bill Will make a show
of reducing revenue. The house will
disagree, and before an understanding
is reached congress will adjourn. This
will leave the tariff question just where
the campaign orator wants 1t. When
talking to protectionists he can ''point
with pride'' to the house bill, and when
holding forth to reductionists he has the
senate bill to show as proof that the e.
o. p. is all right on tariff reduction. It
is very pretty game at thimblerigging,
that is depended on to get the party out
of an ugly dilemma.

Frederick Schroeder or Schrader aud his
wife, j.. Schroeder, made and delivered
TO said Dohne their note Tor $500 payable
to said Dohne or order six months after
the ratification OF peace between the
Confederate states and the United
States. To secure payment of this
Schroeder, joined By his wife,
conveyed to P. p. Moser, trustee, since
deceased, lot No. 377, IN section / CAL
weston island. The citation further re-
lates that Notwithstanding Schroeder
furnished a substitute. still he was COM
PEELED to go into the army, and tor this
reason Schroeder claims that
the contract was not fulfilled
and consequently the $500 never became
due. II also appears that Dohne repre-
sented TO Schroeder that he was not a
citizen of the Confederate states, there
fore he could not be conscripted
for military duty in the Confede-
rate army. This, however, was
untrue and both Dohne aud
Schroeder served the Confederacy as
soldiers and this, it is claimed, yitiated
the contract and rendered the note given
valueless, aud proceedings are now in
stituted for the purpose of clearing the
title to the property conveyed in trust to
secure the payment of the note given.
