Mr.. J. DAVIS Lewis, formerly tin
plate manufa cturer OF Wales, is skill
fully angling for bonus on which to
start s tin plate factory. Mr.. Lewis
says:
The prospects, for the American tin
plate industry are magnificent II the
Mckinley bill passes, in which event his
company viii build Immediately.
Meantime free sites coupled with cash
gifts as high as $50, 900 have been offered
by rival localities to secure the new en-
terprise. Meantime nobody has examined
whether tin can be made proftably even
with the additional 100 per cent.
tariff by which the Mckinley bill pro-
poses to add $40, 200. 600. to s15. .OOO. 900
to the present cost OF tin. Nobody has
inquired whether tin cannot be manufac-
tured as cheaply as in Wales and If a
duty Is actually needed under the false
pleA Of starting new industry here.
The statements of any beneficiary are
taken for truth, because it is good poll
tics, because Republicanism is a vast
scheme Of Doodle and because that party
is engaged In making fat to be fried out
for the next campaign.

The Mckinley blu increases the tax
on muzzle-loading guns from 25 to 40
per cent. This Ia done in the name OF
protection. II is interesting TO inquire
who Is protectedf Not single double
barrsled muzzle. loader is made In this
country. and there is but one maker of
single muzzle leaders, who does not make
more than two thousand dollars worth a
year, and these of style not imported.
The intention seems to be to make the
cheaper guns, not made in this country,
so costly that buyers in this country will
be compelled to buy the more expensive
guns which are made here. Surely it lis
not the intention of the tariff tinkers 10
tax all the buyers Of guns in this couR-
try for the benefit Of this one small man

tT WINS BY DESERVING SUCCESS.


To-day the EVENING JOURNAL enters
upon the third year of career
which gives every promise of increased
success.
When few experienced newspaper
men, cognizant of the distrust and con-
tempt in which the daily newspapers
here were held, determined to start a
new paper, to take the field which those
papers did not fill, they were laughed at,
ridiculed and generously allowed a six
weeks of troubled existence.
The EVENING JOURNAL has weathered
that and several other little
storms successfully, SO that to-
day the EVENING JOURNAL has q
business, a clientage, reputation
for meaning what 1t says and say
ing what it means, a circulation and a
popularity second to no other paper in
the state.
The EVENING JOURNAL Is gaining
constantly in circulation, and in business,
and in influence for good. Not day
passes that some man does not come TO
applaud the stand that the paper takes
for wholesome. hopeful politics Not day
passes which does not bring commenda-
tions of the course OF the EVENING JoUR-
NAL In advocating justice, right, charity
and truth Not day passes that some pub
lie charity, some church, some advocate
OF plan to make men wiser or better,
some plan to succor the weak or to re-
lleve the suffering does not call to thank
the EVENING JOURNAL for assistance
already given or to enlist its assistance
for the future.
The EVENING JOURNAL does more Of
this sort of work freely than all Of our
contemporaries put together. II pub
fishes more sermons and gives intelli-
gent accounts OF charitable work cftener
than any other paper in Wilmington.
The EVENING JOURNAL was the only
paper which dared to attack powerful
and popular judge on the bench and
drive him from the community.
There is no man too great. no matter
too trivial for the EVENING JOURNAL 20
handle in the interest of truth, justice
honesty and for the welfare Of the people
That is why the EVENING JOURNAL is
here that is why 1t is to-day the most
successful paper that was ever started in
Delaware; that is why 1t has lived for
two years so successfully; that Is why Il
will be more successful In the ceming
year, which 1t begins to-day
The EVENING JOURNAL has won sue
cess by deserving success. It win CON
tinue to earn success in that most
sure and commendable way.
To the friends Of this paper,
who are also the friends
Of all worthy enterprises which add. to
the wealth, health and happiness Of the
admirable old commonwealth we extend
hearty and sincere thanks. We shall
stand shoulder to shoulder With you In
advancing any enterprise, advocating
any measure which win promote the good
of the commonwealth.
To those who are envious and jealous,
to those who hate courage. righteousness
and truth we say blaze away and hatten
your bullets and hack your swords upon
an armour which cannot be pierced nor
torn away; it is as beautiful as 1t is
good.

SPEAKER REED was right. The No
kinley bill should have been passed
without discussion. The calcium light
which discussion throws on the bill
shows that it is a sham, mockery and q
fraud. Even the Republican members
attacked the bounty clause, while Demo
Gratis look on to applaud. Discussion
shows the iniquitY of the bill and time

THE walk-over election Of Richard
Vaux, the staunch tariff reformer, in the
Randall district In Philadelphia, is a
large straw to indicate the way the wind
is blowing. IL is not blowing
toward Republieanism in this,
the hour of the triumphant
possession OF the local and national
governments II is not blowing
toward protectionism even In this
district which offered peculiar ad-
vantagss for testing the strength Of that
sentiment in she hour Of the triumphant
passage of the Mckinley bill.
This election Of Richard Vanx
shows that though Repub licanism
and protectionism have everything else,
they have neither the people nor a Just
cause. With every possible advantage
for a contest, the Republicans have failed
to contest the election Of q tariff reform
Democrat, in the district formerly repre-
sented by protectionist in the hot t-bsd
Of protectionism. It is evident that thu
only hope Of Republieanism Ia protsc-
tionism-the only hope Of protectionism
is Doodle.
