THE WORK OF THE TARIFF BILL.

The New York Star in an editorial entitled ''rhe Rush at the Custom House. shows the practical workings of the Mckinley bill:
 Saturday was perhaps the greatest day in the history of the New York custom house. and vet it was day of which we ought to be ashamed There was a great rusl of merchants 10 pay duties to the government, and ocenl racers were driven at their fastest speed iu order that goods might be en- tered before midnight There was an actual physical conflict of merchants and their agents to file their taN-pay- ing papers in time.
 This avalanche of money into the treasury might, under ordinary cir eumstances, he deemed an occasini for congratulation There were days similar to last Saturday during peril uus times of the war. when citizens hastencl to place their means at tte disposition of the government for tlsr defense oi the country. Then we werr proud, with good reason. Dat un S.stur- day the concnurse of taxpayers WAS to avoid the imposition of novel and ph't'"S ehAf'tiNti i''ilit~ oil Hlf Elblhii . tations after l2 o'clock that night
 We are at peace, and have been for twenty-five years. The country is in no legitimate need of large sums ol money. our army is Ut the peace stinsi- and. aud yet We propose to collect higher taxes than We have been gathtr- ing, and higher even than the hig.ipsl sNacted to meet tiie expenses of yast armies,

THE PENSION srEAI.

Even the republican papers, con. fronted by he peril of national bank. ruptcy. ask If II k not time to call a halt on the pension business w.. think so. The time to have called "a halt was long before the passage 0i the thousands of special laws and the last disability pension. Both of these were as unjusiitiable as could be. They were passed. not on their merit. but under tue hlackmailing threats ol some of the veterans and so called veterans, Their passage does not meet the situation, because if they are to be justified they naturally and iurci
 piy open the door to other schemes no more biamewofthy. The ''prisoners of war bill has tue merit of being con. sistent and endeayoring to pay an ex. . traordinary price for extraordinary ser vice and suffering. The service pen sion treats all soldiers and ey soldiers alike, and m exact proportion to their service, which is more than can be sald of the special bills or the law which gives a pension because of iu- Juries received since the WAT. To call q halt now, and shut out worthy claimants who really need and da. serve a pension. because ths thing is costing money, is XII outrage The dis ease of ncney grabbing apd ysnality is on, and must be permitted to run is course. When that shall have been done. and the same reckless and wild extravaganza is shown to all veterans

4 SAMPLE OUTRAGE.


 The idea that the tariff benefits the laborer is moderi invention. and was matched up for the purpose of deceiv- ing the voters. IL ws.s happy thought for the manufacturer, for without the scarecrow of the 'ranper labor' of Europe the working peo a.e would have demanded their rights long ago. It is favorite 'pastime for the friends of d high tariH to claim that the workmen get all the advantage it affords, and that goods are sold at very low mar gin, even if foreign competition is ex- cluded. Of course such is not the fact. It appears from catalogue re- gently issued by an American manu- featuring company that they sell goods at one price to their American fellow citizens and at Il much smaller price in foreign market. where they must compete with the world Below is a comparative statement of the way one establishment sold blows and other implements in Spanish America and ill the United States:
