Some OF Those Seized Dresses Won't FIT the

Tho Custom House people began yesterday
the task Of measuring tho dresses seized from

these dresses under the new law must be able

measurements showed that many Of the hand
some dresses were made for forms moro ro-

One development of yesterdays examination
was the discovery OF thirty eight yards Of point
lace in ono Of the dresses imported by Noble
Jones Of Pittsburgh. Mollie Jones has been
one Of the most dnshing dressmakcrs that has
been seen mt the Custom House in the last few
weeks. Her costumes have been dreams of

makers have not been without their Influence

Q. Is 1t the MORRILL, tariff or tho Mck1N-
LEY tariff that is tho cause OF the short

3. Why do trusts and monopolies exist
and flourish under the regime OF free trade
ns IN Great Britain?
4. Why havc the greatest fortunes made
In the United States been made outside OF
tho great protected industries?
Mr.. SPRINGER Is little too hard on the
tariff. which. after oil, is not tho sum OF all
villalnics; and tho Democratic party Is not
so sweeping in its assertions MS MIR.

Mr.. Springer and tho Tariff.

Tho Hon. WILLIAM N. SPRINGER has been
stamping Iowa for Governor BoIEs. Mr..
SPRINGER is an earnest and sincere. albeit
a somewhat impulsive. man when he says
that the Democratic party insists that the
tariff legislation Of the last thirty years is
mainly responsible for the depression OF ag-
riculture, for the building up of great mo-
nopolics. and for the piling up of immense
fortunes in the hands OF a icw people" We
suppose that he believes that such is the
fact. and such tho attitude of the Domo-
cratic party. We hope. however. that the
Democratic party OF Iowa Is resting Its case
upon other grounds than these. for 1t would
DO absurd to imagine that these are tensbls.

The Postmaster. General on Horse
Racing.

We find In the Philadelphia Recorda curl
o,is story OF tho moral zeal and peculiar
methods which Mr.. JOHN WANAMAKER has
introduced into tho Post Office Department.
Mr.. Postmaster FIELD OF Philadelphia had
learned. whether by means Of anonymous
letters or not Is not averred. that "a num-
Der " Post Office employees had been seen
at Gloucester race track" It was even said
that some OF these bold bad men made
bets. Obviously. from the humanitarian
point OF view. to he present at a race track
is to be in the gall Of iniquity and the bonds
Of bitterness. Besides, mon that bet nre IL
able. such Is the uncertainty of events and
OF tips. to lose their wagers. II they spend
all or much Of their earnings in betting
and closing. they will have no money to spend
on fannelcttes or other fall offerings at
Mr.. WANAMAKER's bargain establishment.
This must DO looked into. Postmaster
FIELD. himself a man OF rigid notions on
tho antique virtues. ordered. or was ordered
by Mr.. WANAMAKER to order. the Post
Office inspectors to hunt up tho crimes Of
the employees charged with visiting
Gloucester.
The inspectors had no difficulty In
finding number Of the guilty. and
handed In the names to the Postmaster. All
but one acknowledged their guilt. They
were suspended and will probably be dis
charged. At the same time a number Of
other employees were discharged or noti-
fled to resign for "inefficiency."
ut is somewhat remarkable fact" says
the Record. that all Of the discharged men
are Democrats"
An election. which the Pennsylvania Re-
publicans are afraid OF losing. Is drawing
nigh. They want all the help they can get.
They want all the offices they can get. They
want all the aid which the Administration
can furnish. But why cannot Mr.. FIELD and
his superior officer. Mr.. WANAMAKER. be
manly and straightforward They want to
fill with Republicans certain places in the
Philadelphia Post Office now held by Demo-
Gratis. Why must they resort to sancti-
monious detective work or trumped-up
charges? The men discharged arc dis
charged for being Democrats. That is their
crime. Everybody knows that that is their
crime. Why not say so frankly and have
done?
Because JOHN WANAMAKER is JOHN
wANAMAKER. Because things that crawl
must crawl.
