The whole discussion of the force
bill. on the part of the Republican
press. is distinguished by a studious dis
regard of the constitutional objections
to the measure. The bill is pernicious
enough in itself but it is worse as es-
tablishing a precedent for the filching
away, little by little. of the rights of
sovereign States. which should be pre-
served inviolable at all hazards.
There will be desperate fight
against the passage of the act,
and. if it does pass, it will be the
final nail in the coffin of the reckless
party that Is its sponsor. The legisla-
ton of the present session OF Congress
is not for to-day. nor is the Nation or
any State so ephemeral an institution
that there is any excuse for making it
the plaything of small politicians who
viii be dead and gone. while the evil
they have done may still live and have
an active effect One would think that
the desperation of defeat had turned
the brains of these men, for they are as
reckless of the future as is the bank
rupt spendthrift who is having his last
debauch at the expense of his creditors.

NOTES AND OPINIONS.

Speaker Reeds remark that this
is a time for patriots to keep their
mouths shut. taken in connection with
his impressive silence since the cleo

THE Republican papers are point
ing out that sugar is cheaper. and that
it is due TO the Mckinley tariff bill. Yes.
it is likely that sugar may be lower
in price. But it is one of the cases
where the tariff was removed. This
proves that the tariff is a tax.-Adrian
Press
The first result on wages that has
occurred since the Mckinley bill be-
came law. in this locality. seems to
be reduction of ten per cent. in our
largest steel works. As the Mckinley
bill has advanced the price of most of
the necessaries and comforts of life
from ten to twenty per cent. is the re-
dUctiOn in wages OF ten per cent. in
the nature of cOmpenSatiOn?-Pitt
burgh Post.
1t looks very much as if President
Harrison and Secretary Blaine We're at
tempting to initiate the policy of the
third and last Napoleon. who sought
to aInuSe the French with outside ques-
tions because the internal situation had
become intOlerable. But have these
statesmen forgotten the National hui
initiation and calamities which followed
the Napoieonic poicy?-Philadelp
Times.
In the defeat OF the force bill the
Democrats in the United States Senate
have earned the gratitude of the coun-
try. and the people will look with
equanimity on the crocodile tears shed
by Mr. Hoar and his allies. Not even
the flood of oratory favoring legislation
for the benefit of silver-mine owners
will lessen the feeling of rejoicing at
the escape from the intended basis for
further investments by Dudley in
blocks of five.-Chicago Times.
THE Federal elections bill is
dead says the New York Age (Rep.),
organ of the negroes. 1T has gone to
keep company with the Federal educa-
ton bill. The Republican party has
broken Saith with the voters of the
country upon two or three measures
upon which it won the elections of 1883.
The best interests of the Afro-Amer-
leans have been cut to pieces in the
House of their friends. The treachery
of the Hayes administration has been
repeated under the Harrison admins

liams, and in an open letter to
Leopold, Mr.. Stanley was attacked
as being the chief agent in set
ting up the kings authority.
Col. Williams Is colored man.
He met Mr.. Stanley first in 1884 and
since that time has made q trip up
the Congo. That is about all that
Mr. Stanley knows of him except that
some time ago he tried to secure per-
mission from Sir William NICK ennon,
president of Imperial British east
African country, to go. to the
eastern coast Of Africa, Q part
of the money for Col. Williams In his
Congo trip, Mr.. Stanly said, was fur
nished by G. p. Huntington, who
with Sir William McKennon, was in
terested in developing that country.
Col. Williams has published his at
tack on King and Mr.. Stanly In q
fearful manner. He charges the
grossest abuses in the government OF

permanent use. This consists OF a frame
work covered with an artificial material
called staff which while plastic can be
moulded into whatever designs are re-
quired.
The building will be two stories In

form semi circles, are respectively two Of
