TIE G. O. P. AND THE TARIFF.

The desperation manifested by the g.
IN it's efforts to find tariff issue is
distressing. The party, in casting
sbout for presidential candidate mas
thrown MCKINLEY overheard in favor
Of Mr.. BLAINE, and Mr.. BLAINE smash
cd a new silk hat in emphasizing his dis
like of the Mckinley bill. But still
we have the word OF every Republican
organ in the country that the Mchin-
lev bill is all right, and it Is certain
that McKinleyism is the Republican
idea of "protectiOn to American In
dustries."
Now what is the g. o. p. to do? IL
can't abandon its protective" hoWi'
vet its ideal method OF protection has
been repudiated by the whole country
and the party won't have anything TO
do with Mckinney, in spite OF his
ate "yindication" in Ohio. They are
on all sides of the tariff issue. They
are forced to hold up McKinleyism,
while their voice is for Free TRADE
Reciprocity BLAINE.
The leaders have seen great
white light. They have seen that
Tariff Reform is the winning issue in
the next campaign, but that is inscribed
on the banner of the Democrats.
Already they have begun to trim their
sails to capture the tariff reform breeze.
They have actually begun to draw
the distinction between Tariff Re-
form and Free Trade, placing the
Democrats on the latter side. In the
contest between Mr.. MILLS and Mr..
CRISP they attempt to make this dis
tinction, setting down Judge CRISP as
a tariff reformer who is to be defeated,
and Mr.. MILLS as an absolute free
trader" to use the IlteIh9encer'S
words, who is to be elected Speaker
by the Democrats Of the next Con-
gress.
While this is very shrewd politics, it
will not work in view of Mr.. Mills
record. His tariff bill proposed but a
very slight reduction Of the tariff, and
in his latest utterance on the subject
defining his position on the tariff ques-
tion he used these words:
What is right is right, and we should
have the courage Of our convictions. Do
you remember the Walker tariff of lS47!
At one step we moved the protective
tariff of 1S41 TO revenue basis. Instead
of being disastrous the step was wise, and
productive OF so great prosperity that in
1857 we were able to reduce the tariff once
more. l believe this is what should be
done now. Of course I don't mean an iRdtS-
crimindte cutting d,CIy Of rates, but careful
and discriminate reutsiOn that In tdring i'm
ports UtH took out for the industries Of the
country That can be done"

THE EDISON PROMOTERS AND THE
INFELLIGENCER

What is this community to understand
in regard 70 the persistent effort OF the
Edison Light promoters TO foist that
scheme upon this city, after Council has
almost unanimously declared that TO
surrender such an important franchise
TO a private company would be pub
lie calanity? This action Of Council
was not determined hastily. 1t was
only after the most careful and deliber-
ate investigation that it came to so
wise a conclusion. Many good citizens
outside of Council who had their doubts
about the adyiSability of granting the
measure, but remained passive because
the promoters Of the scheme had
very Shrewdly connected several
prominent citizens with the en-
terpriSe, whose interests it was
unpleasant to oppose, are now up in
arms and outspOken in their denuncia-
ton of the continuance of the effort to
bulldoze the project again to the front.
As these tactics continue they draw the
fire Of the promoters more freely, and
the public not only gets a better
knowledge Of the cards that they were
{ playing but is congratulating Council
and itself over the narrow escape it had
from a great and irreparable loss which
might have resulted in a calamity to
I the city'S finances.
Has the htelligenccr lost its wits or
are the considerations" 10 continue its
defense Of the scheme more profitable
than it is to look after the welfare Of
| the public?

Now that the Bel Telephone Com

to adopt the most modern invention to

1t is a fact worthy of attention that in
Europe, where the telephone patents
have expired, or are maintained under
limitations, the service is both cheaper
and better than is generally afforded in
this country. The telephone companies

and New Mexico.

WILCOX, ARIZ., November 30.-The
Apaches are on the war path and have
committed several depredations. One
man has been killed and another
wounded, and the settlers are arming
to protect themselves. j. w. Downing,
who lives about thirty miles south Of
this place, rode in great haste Thurs
day night and reported that one of his
men had been murdered by war party
of Indians who disappeared soon attire
the killing and cannot now be found.
The name Of the dead man is b. II.
Daniels, of Ontario, Canada, an ex-sol-
der, and about thirty-fve years old.
The following telegram has been re-
ceived from Fort Bowie: Maj. Downing
was shot at from ambush this evening
while riding in his buggy, but not in
jured. This was written within mile
of the Majors residence.
Robbery was not the object of the
murdererS. 1t is the season when the
red skins become uneasy, and dispatch
says it would be well for all citizens to
look TO their arms before more lives are
wantonly taken. Bowie is sixteen miles
from the scene of the killing. The mil
itary is taking every preeaution to de-
fend the settlers. The Indian hostileS
are moving south.

ties were excellent throughout. 1t is
one of the largest farce comedy COM

well in touch with the plot of the piece,
what little plot it has. The star, Mr..
Daniels, was even better than ever, and
this is saying good deal. The singing
and dancing, and the large number Of
good-looking girls, caught the audience
from the start. 1t was relishable en-
tertainment throughout.

YEsTEDAY was celebrated the golden
jubilee of the venerable Archbishop
KENRIcE, of the archdiocese of St.
Louis. 1t was the second event of the
kind in the history of the Catholic
Church, and, consequently, attracted
worldwide attention. Archbishop KEN
RICK has passed his eighty-ffth year.
The early years Of his manhood saw him
an ordained priest Of the church and
the succeeding lfty-nine years of his
life have been consecrated to religious
work. His earneStneSs and ability are
shown in his rapid advancement from
priest to bishop and from bishop to
archbishop. His is a career that has but
one parallel in the Catholic Church,
and the remarkable demonstrations of
love and respect which attended the
fftieth anniversary of his conservation
as Bishop attest its success.
