CASTLES MEAT.

There was very pleasant gathering
of Fourth district pOstmasterS and other
federal officials at Anoka yesterday, who
proceeded in the most agreeable man
her to testify their appreciation of Capt.
SNIDER'S services in their behalf by
rendering him a gilt-edged renOmina-
ton. Their action in this matter win
create neither surprise nor enthusiasm.
1t was one of those perfunetory tasks
that machine politicians have to per-
form, and it is to their credit in this in
stance that they did not vary from the
strictly regulation plan.
Capt. SNYDER is very pleasant gen.
tleman in social life, and has had a sue
ceSsful business career. But his pocket
book is his single recommendation for
public station; and, yet, as things go
nowadays in Republican politics, money
is the only qualification that an Office
seeker needs.
Mr.. SNIDER's one term as congress
man has been very wooden affair.
He could hardly be called figurehead,
for he hasn't been cons picuous enough.
The most brilliant part of his career
has been his distinguished failure to get
anything that his constituents want.
He has gained more distinction in this
direction than any other man in con-
gresS. The full extent of his public
service has been to gather few federal
plums for some of his Minneapolis
friends, and to name few postmasters
in the outlying districts. These were
the gentlemen at Anoka yesterday who
so courteously gave recognition Of the
favors they had received.
With CASTLE and SNYDER in the
field, it is to be a contest between brains
and dollars. And it will all depSnd
upon the moral and intellectual stand.
ard of our people which wins.

CAPITAL TO FIGHT LABOR.
Australian Employers Will Com

SYDNEY, N. S. W., Sept. AT a
meeting Of employers of all classes to-
day, held under the auspices of the en-
ployers' union and the steamship asso-
citation, it was resolved that the time
had arrived when it was necessary for
employers and capitalists to form pro-
tectiye association and cooperate in
fighting the battles of the community
against aggressive unionism. An en-
ployers' defense association was ac-
cordingly constituted, and a committee
was appointed to draft a scheme of
colonial cooperation. A fund was also
started to assist the ship owners in the
fight against their striking employees.

An Iridescent Dream.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
With both houses of congress Repub-
lican by an ample margin, the country
was told last winter that new rule.
heading off ''dilatory'' motions and mi
nority obstruction" would insure the
prompt dispatch of legislative business
and send the bills of each house sailing
through the other to receive the APPROX
ing signature of president in harmony
with both branches of congress. That
was the ''iridescent dream" The gloomy
reality in the ninth month of protracted
session is an unprecedented record of
delays and antagonisms between Re-
publican senate and Republican house,
and between a Republican administra-
ton and Republican congress. House
bills have been butchered in the senate
and senate bills in the house.

McKiuley's First-Born.

Chicago Tribune.
But the darling is his first-born, and
he cannot see its blemishes, or, if he
does, thinks them excellences. Were
he not thus blinded by paternal feeling
he would never talk of the Republican
party being benefited" by the measure
which will make it harder for eyeryb
to feed, house and clothe himself. That
political organization which is foolish
enough to ask for popular support on
the ground that it has made people
thrashing. If the Republican party
were so unwise as to do what Mckinley
wishes and begin pointing with pride;'
to the fact that it has harmed all but
selected few, the sooner the palI-bearers
should be picked out the better.

CAN'T BE DONE.

Congressman SNYDER expresses the
opinion that Mr.. BLAINE's recipocrity
plan will yet be embodied in the Nc
KINLEy- bill, and will thus be adopted
as part of the Republican policy. He
quotes MIR. MCKINLEY as authority for
saying that the house will concur with
the senate IN an amendment of that
sort if the latter body can be persuaded
to adopt it, which possibly accounts for
the taffy letter that BLAINE sent to
MCKINLEY the other day.
We are not disposed to take this rose
ate view of reciprocity. and will submit
our reasons for differing with Mr..
SNYDER. In the first place, there has
in the senate to tumble to the BLAINE
reciprocity racket. All the favorable
expressions have come from Northwest
ern congressman, which leads US to be-
lieve that it is more Of an eXpediency
dodge OH their part than any settled
purpose to put the reciprocity idea into
effect. Senator DAVIS is certainly
very able champion of the idea, and it is
known that Senator PIERCE advocates it.
That is the extent of the support the
BLAKE measure has in the senate, ex-
eept that Mr.. WAsHBUpN can probably
be induced to vote for it in case there is
no danger of his vote helping to pass it.
In the house the OutSDoken champions
of reciprocity are very scarce outside of
the Minnesota delegation, and the latter
will probably make a show of support
ing it for the sake of keeping in harmony
with the Republican state platform.
Their trick is to cater to the GORDON
E. COLE element in the party without
Jeopardizing the principle of protection
as defined in the MCKINLEY bill. So
we are thoroughly convinced that the
Minnesota congressman are InSincere
in their professions of friendship for
Mr.. BLAINE's reciprocity idea. and
that they are only aiming to get up
record for home effect.
In the next place, if the Republican
congress is honest in its advocacy of
reciprocity, we fail to see how the reel
procity plan is to be dovetailed into the
MCKINLEY bill. The two cannot be
fitted together.
The idea of the MCKINLEY bill is to
establish commercial embargo against
foreign products. The purpose of reci-
procity, is to open up and foster free
interchange of commodities between
our country and other nations. One is
antagonistic to the other. and how in
the world they are to be amalgamated
into one law is something that only a
Minnesota congressman can find out.
We have no doubt that Mr.. SNYDER
and his associates will make a show of
trying to engraft the BLAINE reciproc-
| ity idea on the MCKINLEY bill, just for
the effect they will expect it to have on
their constituents. But, for goodness
| sake, don't let them insult the iutelli-
gence of the American people by hold
| ing forth the idea that reciprocity and
| McKinleyism will mix.

LONDON, Sept. 2.-Lord Sackville,
formerly British minister at Washing

on-Avon, has presented to the town
council claim for encroachment and
rent in respect to the fountain and
clock tower donated by George ".
Childs, of Philadelphia. At a county
meeting to-day several speakers de-
nounced the conduct of Lord Sackville
in the matter. They said the spot on
which the fountain stands has been
used as public market for 600 years.
The council holds that there has been
no encroaehment, unless Lord Sack
vile can prove his manorial rights over
the middle of the market square. Lord
Sackville's agent writes that if the
council admits the claim, at the same
time asking that it be not enforced, his
lordship may refrain from levying rent.
The council. however, has decided to
fight the claim.

sTEENsTRAND GOES BROKE.
Failure of the Liver pool Cor

LIVERPOOL, Sept. 2.-The failure is
reported of the large Steenstrand cot
ton firm. The brokers of Mr.. Steen-
strand closed all his transactions yes
terday in accordance with a private
agreement, which provided for his pay
ing them &C cents On the dollar. The
posting of Mr.. Steenstrand was the
cause yesterday of heavy fall in the
cotton market, but prices recovered
after it became known that his transac-
tons had been closed. Brokers dealing
with him have been particularly care
full to have everything hedged so the
crash did very little harm in
the cotton market. A few
young and inexperienced firms
are the only sufferers. A year ago Mr.
Steenstrand possessed 100000. Half of
this amount was obtained from the new
salt union for his interest in the Cheshire
salt works. 1t is reported that he now
has nothing but the furniture of his
house. His failure is attributed to the
fall in prices and collapse of the cotton
corner. His losses during July ami
and August are estimated at 100000
NEW YORK, Sept. At is stated in

BACKED BY HALF A BILLION.
The British Shipowners' Union
Giving London the Shake.

oltIHS AOUlOIt TIE snake.
LONDON. Sept. Though the
Shipping Owners union, formed to-
day, is backed by total capital of
nearly $500, 100000. it does not include
many London shipowners. London
ship men believe that while the union
can successfully resist the vexatious
interferenceS of labor at other ports, it
cannot contend with the London dock
erS' union. They take the ground that
i'll event OF renewal of the trouble
with the lockers, the only course to
pursue will be to abandon London alto
gether and utilize the facilities afforded
at other ports. In that contingency
they will join the new union. This de-
-cisIon is one that may foreshadow
ethe decline of London as a
great port. Many large shipown-
ers have come to take very
decided view in favor of small ports as
against large ones. Should the implied
change take place, however, it would
not affect England's maritime seprem-
acy, as what was lost by London would
be gained by the other English ports.
The union includes nearly all the North
of England and Scotch shipping, and
most OF the Atlantic lines. 1t is pro-
posed to invite American, Australian
and continental Shipowners to Join the
