A PASADENA POLICEMAN
Stops Work on the Terminal Railway
at the RAYMOND.

at the Raymond.
A majestic Pasadena policeman yes
terday blocked the progress of the con-
struction of the Los Angeles and
Terminal railroad. General Manager
Burnett recently purchased some ground
of w. Thompson for the purpose of
widening the cut at the Raymond. After
the purchase was made, the authorities
decided that the land in question had
been declared at one time to be street,
and on Thursday the city marshal and
his police force marched down to the
cut, stopped the men who were working
there and left policeman on guard to
prevent further operations. Hon. T. E.
Gibbon, attorney for the road, was at
Pasadena yesterday, endeavoring to set
tie the matter, but whether he got away
with the policeman or not could not be
learned.

A Fire from the Rear.

Our frec-trade friends of the Tribune,
Times, and Herald, although they are
credited by the London press with being
sable aids" 10 the English cause, are
really receiving very little comfort from
any of their friends across the water.
unless, perhaps, IL Is comfort OF such
character as they do not desire TO parade
before the pubic. Certainly neither the
testimony of the public men Of England
nor the press OF that country bear them
out in their assertions as TO the effect OF
the Mckinley bill on the trade of En-
gland or America.
They have been asserting that that
bill has already worked great damage
to America. but Mr.. Lane Booker, who
is Consul General for Great Britain at
New York, begs to differ with them. He
has made an official report to the home
office in which no talks about the effect
of the "new and higher duties" (the Nc
Kinley bill in way that must make
George Jones and Joseph Medill smooth
their hair the wrong way. Here is the
way he talks:
"The trade of Now York has been in
fluenced by the new and higher duties
which have etfectually benefited Ameri-
can manufacturing interests New life.
he adds, has been impaired to the cotton
and wooden industry everywhere, but es-
pecially, says Mr.. Booker, Is this the
case in the Southern States, where new
textile mills are going up with surprising
activity, while all the old mills are being
operated ON full time. The silk indus
try, Mr.. Booker's report says, in conclu-
sion, is the only exception to this state
of general prosperity"
Only think of il. Here are two hard
blows in one little paragraph. '"Cotton
aad WOODEN industries" greatly i'm
proved; in fact, "the only exception to
tn S state OF prosperity" is what? 1.-THE
silk industry" The silk industry, which
the Mckinley bill did not disturb but al
lowed to remain where former high
tariffs had placed it, languishes. But
the cotton and wooden industries, which
the Mckinley bill has been so much
abused for touching, are very prosper
ous-greatly improved
Mr. Booker is officially located in New
York, and George Jones should at once
cite him TO appear at the editorial sane
tum Of the Times and show cause why he
is thus discrediting the editorials of that
paper. Mr.. Medill should write TO his
old friend, Mr.. Jones, at once and insist
that he call Pooker TO account for thus
firing upon them from the rear. The
cohorts of free trade can stand anything
else better than that. Their armor
does not protect them in that quarter. -

Soaring til, Conscience.

OF all her curious customs London
cannot boast of more singular one
than that formerly so strictly adhered
to at Holland House, one of the
most historic old mansions in
the British capital The last of
the Lords Holland shot himself
during a fit of dependency; every
thing pointed to a clear case of self
murder. yet the Holland family could
never be dissuaded from the notion
that the old man had been murdered
by some unknown assassin. Accord
ingly every night for years it was the
custom for one of the family to go to
the rear of the house punctually at
eleven o'clock and fire gun. for the
purpose, it is said, of soaring the
conscience" of the murderer. This
curious practice is relic of medieval
days in continental Europe. and the
case in point is probably the only in
stance where it has been noticed since
the days of the crusades.

Prosperity and Foreign Trade.

The British embassy at Rome has
made an interesting report on the for
elgn trade or Italy. From a free trade
standpoint the report indicates very
bad state of affairs. Both exports and
imports show very large decrease
The exports of 1890 were So, 900, 600 less
than i'm 1889. and tho imports fell off In
an almost equal degree. As Italy has
recently established a protective tariff,
here was "a good opportunity for the
British embassy to furnish powerful
Anglo Mugwump free trade essay. show
ing how Italy had thrown away the mar
kcts OF the world. But no, the British
official, Mr.. Deering, who compiled the
report, candidly admits that, ain spite of
these Ominous figures, there are certain
facts connected with them which are not
unfavOrahle for the national prosperity.
One Of the main items of decrease in
imports is grain, which is due to boun-
tiful harvest; SO that the value of the
cereals imported i'm 1890 was 81, 500, 900
less than in 1882. a decrease in the i'm
port OF cotton and woven goods is due to
increased activity in Italian weaving
establishments, marked by increasing
imports OF raw cotton. Tho imports
of coal are also increasing. SINH
silk goods and in the export Of
raw silk indicate an increasing domestic
silk business. Indeed, Mr.. Daring re-
CARDS the customs returns as showing
that these textile industries in Italy are
not in p depressed condition, and this
view is corroborated by the large inn
ports OF chemical products and dyeing
machinery. AS TO the decrease i'm ex-
ports, it Is largely accounted for by in
creased ability TO consume, and conse-
quently increased consumption at home.
We have before called attention to
the circumstance that Italy, notwith-
standing that the Government Is on the
verge Of financial bankruptcy, is grow
ing richer as "a nation; that wages,
wealth and comfort are increasing; and
all this in the face of serious decline in
foreign trade. The facts simply go TO
provo that, while foreign trade is TO be
desired and acquired, and can be an I'M
portaNt factor in national welfare, the
chief and primary factor in such welfare
is tho control by nation of its home
trade. Italy Is getting along better with
u loss of foreign trade, because Italy
Is selling TO and buying from Italy, and
is sustaining in Italy the industries that
formerly did their manufacturing for the
Italian market in France and England. -

ALL agree - whether Democrats or
Republicans-thatt the tariff Is the wsest
and best mode by which TO raise the
great bulk Of the revenue required to
conduct our Government, only differing
as to the principle upon which that
tariff shall be levied, whether on the
English system for the purpose Of reve-
nue. only, or for the additional purpose
Of giving encouragement to our own in
duStries and our own enterprises and
employment to our own labor And, as
we have to resort to tariffs. as we must
tax foreign products we be
Democrats or whether we be Repnbli-
cans--to keep the wheels of government
in operat on, the Republican party de-
clares that those tariffs shall be so levied
upon foreign competing products as to
stimulate American genius American
development, and give remunerativo
employment to American labor and a

A PRACTICAL illustration of the opera
tions of the Mckinley tariff law is to be
found in the decreasing importations OF
wooden manufactures and worSted goods
since it went into effect For the first
three months OF 1890, under the Cd law
the importations of wooden manufactures
were 1,471. AGO yards, as against |, $780,,
100 yards for the first three months Of
1891, under the new law. For the same
period in 1890 the importation OF worsted
goods was 10, e54, 900 yards, as against
1926, 300 yards this year. The countrys
consumption OF these goods is certainly
not less, but greater, this year than last.
Increasing population alone would haze
the effect of making larger consumption.
These figures show as no argument can
show the benefit OF the Mckinley bill TO
the wagc-earners of the United States.
