THE TONNAGE BILL.

What Is known as the Tonnage bill. which
provides that the Federal Government shall
pay bounty pro rata TO each vessel built in
this country and equipped by American citi-
zens, comes up in the House to-day. having
passed the Senate in July. 1890. II will be re-
membered that this bill received the approval
Of our Chamber of Commerce at their meeting
on Saturday, and committee was appointed
to 60 ON to Washington TO request the repre-
sentatives Of Virginia in Congress TO cast their
votes in favor of the measure and to use their
influence to secure its passage.
We are not disposed TO think that the bill
was entitled to such active support as this.
1t has always been, and properly so. as ex-
perience has shown. acardinal principle of the
Democratic party to oppose every form of
national subsidy as tending to enlarge the
scope Of the central power, and in doing SO,
to introduce some Of the very worst features
of the extreme paternal system of.administra-
ton. To such o degree is this considered to
be the case in this special instance that the
words bounty" and subsidy" are generally
accepted as having an odious Specification, be-
ing strongly tainted with the suspicion of
political job5ery. Bounties and subsidies are
associated in the public mind with the most
corrupt periods Of the Republican regime,
and justly so, for they have been the means
by which the National Government has been
used most unblushingly for the promotion Of
selfish private ends.
The truth is that the deplorable condition
Of our shipping interests at the present time
is due to the system of high protection now
in operation in this country, which makes it
practically impossible for our ship builders
to compete with foreign. owing to the enor-
nous duties that have been imposed on the
material entering into the construction Of
ships which American shipbuildcrs have either
to import from abroad subject to these duties
or purchase ut home at protected rates. The

Certain events of recent happening have an

ings have been held in the interests of labor
organizations and the Farmers Alliance.

tinct political movement will be heard from
about month from now, while the meetings
referred TO are mainly preparatory 10 that
which will follow.
First among them is the meeting of delegates
in Washington. which was appointed at Ocala
for the purpose of ehecting a confederate
union between such organizations as the
Knights of Labor and the Farmers Alliance.
The programme seems to be TO form a central
advisory committee, whose duty II shall be TO

ton comes upin political campaign, II is to be
the function of the federation officials To say
which way the vote Of the allied societies shall
be east This, among other things, is the
ay0wed purpose Of the union.
Another important matter is the meeting Of
numerous branches Of these various societies
in different parts of the country. and the
adoption by them of resolutions looking to-
ward concerted action in politics. Among
score of such gatherings is to be noted the
Ohio State Farmers Alliance, which has Just
closed its sessions at Gallon. full set of re-
solutions was adopted, reiterating the doe
trnes If the 81. Louis and Ocala platforms.
and pledging the support of the Ohio Alliance
TO the party which should make these princi-
pies direct issues in any political campaign.

RECIPROCITY VS.. TARIFF REFORM.

According 10 latest advices, there will be no
extrn session of the Senate unless an extra
session of the Fifty-Second Congress is forced
on the country, inasmuch as it is claimed that
the Mckinley law gives the President sufii-
Gent power to enter into reciprocity treaties,
under certain conditions. without requiring
the presence of that body. 1t is further an
nounced that the policy of reciprocity inaugu-
rated in the case of Brazil, will be continued
10 other countries. and that it is believed such
. course will materially strengthen the Re
publican party In the West.
When the Fifty-first Congress first assem-
bled the Republican majority in the House,
flushed with a victory which. although very
meagre. was sufficient. for the first time in
years. to turn that body over to the control of
the Radical party, proclaimed boldly that ifthe
people had decided anything at the preceding
general election, II was that they pre-
ferred protection 10 tariff reform. So
bold indeed were they in this position
that they passed the Mckinley robber pro-
lection bill without making or entertaining
any provision whatever for reciprocity treaties.
and IL was only through the long -headedncss
Of Blaine. who foresaw the mischief which
would be done his party, that, after long dis

The Remains OF Jefferson Davise.
Memphis Appeal-Ayalanche.l

The people Of Richmond. Va. are making
an earnest effort 10 secure the removal Of the
remains Of jefferson Davis TO that city. pro-
posing 10 erect above his grave grand mOnu-
nent. Mr. Davis died fourteen months ago,
and "a very large sum of money has been sub
scribed by the people of the South for mon
ument. though but little has been said regard
ing the project during the last ten months.
II seems. however, that the people OF Rich
mond have not lost zeal in the mat
ter, and that they are about to Sc
cure the honor Of building the mausoleum in
the capital Of the Confederacy. They have
always been foremost in memorial work Of
this character, and the fact stands to their
great credit. They would now do for Davis
what they have done so magnifcently for Lee.
1t seems te ms that the memories and tradi-
lions Of the Confederacy are better conserved
in Virginia and Georgia than IN any. OF the
other Southern States The people Of those
States are not less progressive than those OF
others, but they find time and money TO de-
vote 10 memorials Of the illustrlous dead. In
this respect they show spirit that should be-
