| ~-~~ town of Coronel, on the coast about twenty-five miles south of Conception. All sorts of excesses have been com- mitted by them. Houses and stores have been sacked and burned. The slightest protest against their actions is met by rifle shots. Women have been abused and subjected to brutali- ties of the most revolling character. Mob rule Tn its worst form prevails. BITTER AGAINST U. s. | VAIPARAIsO-There is no disguising the fact that there is very bitter feel. ing against the Americans 0, the part of the successful revolutionists. This feeling is so strong that unless it is placated in some way, it may seriously | affect American commercial interests in Chill for some time. Much pity is felt for the families of the Balmacedist officials who have fled the country, many of them having been left behind friendless and penniless. There will be no fight at Coquimbo. The trans port Cocopaco has taken on board a division of tioops and was under orders to sail for Coquimbo today when a formal tender of submission was re- ceived from Colonel Calvarro com. manding the troops there.

him. Selectman HOWE very properly OBJ
lected to this, and as all the other members
OF the court agreed with him, the assessor
will not receive any more in advance salary
at present. Our only reason for making
mention of this fact is that the Liberal
organ through its local columns has been
berating Selectman HOWE for his action in
this matter. If any censure is due, how
ever, the whole court, and not a single
member, should receive it, and the censure
should be limited strictly to the question
whether the court did not act with too
lavish a kindness toward the assessor in
allowing him the first 81 900 of his salary
in advance. That proceeding might pos
sibly be at fault, but the denial of the 81, 900
was in the plain line of the duty of the

A PREACHERS TRUST.

We are prepared in these days OF central
lzatlon OF affairs both political and industrial
to see nearly every thing run into trusts and
combines; and for labor of all kinds to run
into organization for its own protection. hut
we confess to little surprise to hear OF
anything savoring of preachers trust be-
ing organized; yet such is the case. News
comes from Iowa that the Presbytery Of
that state decided to discourage preaching
by theological students, the reason being
that they were crowding out those already
IN the ministerial field. So that it would
appear that this particular business of
preaching the gospel is to have the number
of apprentice hands limitad, just as other
trades and professions are seeking to pro.
tect themselves from being over-crowded
by too many rushing into the field. This
Will be sorry spectacle, however, when it
is remembered that after the lapse of 1900
years only about one fourth of the inhabi.
tants OF the earth are Christians. The
other three-fourths are supposed to be per-
ishing in unbelief: yet this Presbytery of
the Christian state of Iowa does not want
to give the young fellows who should 90
out into the world to teach this seething
mass of unbelievers a chance to practice
their vocation of preaching. Are circum-
stances changed! Has the time come when
the harvest is small and the laborers too
many?

BLAINE.
country.

A New York provincial newspaper pub
fishes that "STEPHEN B. ELKINs is author
ity for the statement that JAMES G. BLAINE
would shortly announce his decision not
under any circumstances to allow his
name to be used at the next Republican
national convention as candidate for
President He says BLAINE's letter or an
nouncement will be SO positive as to ad-
mist of but one construction, that he never
again will be candidate for the presi-
dency."
This is supplemented by the statement
by Mr.. w. j. ARKELL, of Judge and Frank
Leslie's Illustrated, that Mr. BLAINE is
about to promulgate his declination as
above. RUSSELL B. HARRISON is also re-
ported as saying that the secretary of state
will not allow his name to be used again in
connection with the Presidency.
This all seems very positive and will
settle the matter with those who want to
have it settled in this manner; but every
body else will take no stock whatever in
these declarations until Mr.. BLAINE
shall issue the promised declination.
Mighty few believe that he will ever issue
it, and we are not among them. JAMES G..
BLAINE is the ablest statesman in the Re
publican party. This fact must be con-
ceded by all fair minded men, regardless of
their partisan politics. He is not only an
able man, but he is brilliant, and what is
of Importance in these times, is the univer
sally recognized fact that he is an Ameri-
can through and through. To HIM Ameri-
can citizenship is the grandest thing on
earth, the glory of the American republic
the most desirable. This pronounced
characteristic makes him the strongest of
the prominent figures in the Republican
ranks, for there is mighty sentiment
abroad in the land that the foreign infiu-
ence in this land of freedom must be re.
duced, and that Mr.. BLAINE is the embodi-
ment of that sentiment of reduction.
If there were ever man who was am
bilious to be President it is JAMES G..
BLAINE, and there has never been time in
his history when there was better promise

PROTECTION TWADDLE.

The greatest Republican paper in this
western country is the San Francisco
Chronicle, and it is engaged in deluding its
simple followers, after this fashion:
A free trade paper asks: what protection
does tariff afford that fails to increase the
price of the foreign article which enters into
competition with a similar home productions"
All the protection that American producers ask.
The free traders are mistaken in assuming that
American manufacturers ask protection in
order to permit them to charge higher prices.
they desire nothing of the kind. What they
wants to be guarded against the unfair assaults
OF foreign producers who, in order to hold the
American market, are willing to make heavy
temporary sacrifices to discourage and drive
out OF business the home producer. A properly
laid protective tariff acoomphshes this object
and by so doing creates a new class of competi-
tors, whose presence in the market prevents
the foreigner fixing prices at his own sweet will
as he has always done when he had things his
own way.
For example, torty-nine sugar refineres
desired protection, not Sin order to permit
them to charge higher prices" but to 'sbe
guarded against the unfair assaults of
foreign producers This protection was
accorded them, and they proceeded to fix
prices at their Town sweet will" They
sold sugar to the American people at from
. TO IL cents a pound, and to foreigners at
from D to cents at the same time. After
this robbery had continued until it was no
longer possible to conceal or defend it, the
tax was lightened two cents pound on the
lower grades of sugar, and the price Of
sugar dropped precisely that amount all
over the whole country.
This makes it tolerably clear whether or
net the tax enabled the sugar refiners to
charge higher prices. A protection paper
has deep and abiding faith in the stupid
lty OF its readers when it tells them tariff
does not raise the price of the article on
which 1t is laid, or when it pleads the baby
talk about the wicked foreigner driving
the defenseless home producer out of bust
ness.
The fact is that there is no competition
between the foreigner and the home pro-
Queer; the whole competition is between
Two classes OF home producers, one of
which produces and exports surplus
product. The pay for this exported sur
plus is some imported article; and when
home producer asks to be protected against
1t, he really asks protection against the
American who produces the surplus, and
not against the foreigner.

THE SURPLUS.

The obseryant reader will notice that the
net surplus in the national treasury, even
after the forced loan of fifty-four millions
from sacred trust fund by the billion
Congress, is now only twelve millions. aud
thirty millions must be paid within the
next month for pensions alone, not to con-
slider the current ordinary disbursements.
The secretary of the treasury is now plead
ing with the banks to take eighteen mil
lions of subsidiary silver coin, hitherto
treated in the treasury statement as an
unavailable asset" to delay for a little
longer the confession of a bankrupted
treasury.
1t will be ga condition and not theory
for certain, that will presently confront
the apologists for the "work" done by the
billion dollar Congress. There was a sur
plus of Sl0o, 0OO, 900 at the beginning of the
last term, and the campaign cry Of the
party that then came into power had been
that a surplus was better than deficiency.
In this way the Democratic demand for
lower taxes had been successfully met
Then the taxes were increased, but the
surplus has been turned into deficit.
1t is said that the secretary of the treas
ury is meditating an extension at lower
rate of the AZ per cent. bonds soon to fall
due.
This is an excellent illustration of the
policy and results of high protective taxa
tion. There is surplus on hand and ex-
pendituros are enormously increased in
order to get rid of it. Then deficiency
threatens and the taxes are again piled nm
But the taxes are laid for protection with
incidental revenue, and the amount of
money they will yield is uncertain. Thus
it happens that there is no certainty in at
tempting to make the taxation equal to the
expenditures, while the amount of the ex-
penditure itself is, in the present instance.
altogether uncertain.
Economy in public expenditure, and
taxes laid for the sake of revenue will be-
the path of correction for this Republican
laundering. The next Congress will have
delicate task before it.

whole, Mr.. BLAINE is in better position
than ever to get what he seeks.
Does it seem likely that under these IA
vorable circumstances he will step aside
and while denying to himself what he most
longs for, will answer with negative the
almost unanimous call of his party that he
will lead in the coming battle. To say this
of him is to say that his whole nature has
undergone radical change, and that what
once pleased him is now offensive. It is to
say that he is no longer ambitious in the
direction which he has been following for
quarter of century, and that he does
not recognize the claims upon him of the
party to whose successes he has contributed
so much.
We don't believe that Mr.. BLAINE will
issue any announcement that will take him
out of the Presidential contest, and we do
believe that he will be nominated by &C
clamation. We also believe he will be de-
feated by the same statesman who downed
him seven years ago.

SCHOoL OF JOURNALISM.

The st. Joseph Herald tells of Kansas
City man who has opened school of Jour
nallsm, in which he proposes 20 teach those
who are ambitious for journalistic honors
how to gather and prepare news, to discuss
public questions, and 30 on. The real
newspaper man will look with contempt
upon the teacher and with pity upon all his
pupils. The journalists will know
that the teacher is woefully ignor.
ant of his subject, his ignorance
being confessed in his proposition
to teach something which cannot be learned
any other school than that of experience,
and cannot be learned at all unless there
De an aptitude for the business A few
years ago Cornell university undertook to
send journalists into the field ready made,
and newspaper men looked upon the ex-
pertinent with interest. A number of
bright young men took the Cornell course
In journalism, and came out with great
ideas of their own knowledge of newspaper
work anG mighty poor opinions of the
ability of the poor fellows who had learned
only in the school of practical experience.
TheCornell graduates readily found employ
ment, just as all young men ambitious TO
shine in the field Of journalism can Go, but
their employers were not long in learning
that the college newspaper course il it had
not been positive detriment it certainly
had been of no practical advantage. Such
poor success attended these graduates that
the university finally abandoned the course
in journalism, and wisely concluded that a
knowledge of the profession must be gained
outside the walls of schoolhouse.
We would not be understood as intimat-
ing that one can be too highly educated for
newspaper work; that he can bring too
much learning into newspaper Office.
Well educated Journalists are the best.
But besides the 'book-learning' there
must be good deal else in the individual
before he can become successful snews-
paper fellow" All the learning which our
colleges can bestow will avail little if the
person do not possess a nose for news. 1t
doesn't count that he can discuss learnedly
the Greek classics, nor does it avail that
he is deep in science; if he cannot sense
news from afar and is unable to dish it UP
in attractive shape, he will not succeed in
the newspaper field, and would better turn
his attention in some other direction. The
aptitude being in the man, he can utilize it
successfully only in one way, and that is
by going through course of training, be-
ginning at the bottom of the ladder. If he
is good reporter he will be very apt to
make good editor, but we don't believe a
poor or stupid reporter ever became a sue
cessful editor
In plain words, the young man who is
ambitious to succeed as journalist should
let schools which teach journalism alone.

expect to work hard, to be active and ener-
getic, to grind, and to receive less pay for
a long time than he might reasonably ex-
pect to get in other walks Of life which did

ness and wise INDIGNANT
