HARRISON ANXIOUS.
And VIII Visit the Coast If Public Busi-
ness VIII Permit Him Doing So.

ana w III WISH the Coast II PuOl1c BuS1-
VIII Permit Him Doing So.
SAN Francisco, March 25.-Congress-
man Morrow, who has just returned
from Washington, was asked today if he
thought President Harrison would visit
California
Well, l had talk with President Har-
rison about visiting this coast, and he
stated that he was very anxious to make
the trip. He will, if possible, come
here some time in the spring, that is, if
his public offices will permit him to
leave Washington. There are great
many questions requiring the presence
of the president and the members of the
cabinet in Washington, and if it should
appear that matters cannot be post
poned the president will be compelled
to remain in Washington. If he comes
out here he will start between April 9TH
and 10Th and will travel on the southern
route and on the way will stop at San
Diego, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and
other points of interest. He will also
visit the Yosemite valley on his way to
this city. He will remain here few
days and will leave by the Northern
route, and will probably visit the states
of Oregon and Washington.

My advice to workingmen is this: If
you want power in this country; if you
want to make yourself felt if you do
not want your children to wait long
years before they have the bread on the
table they ought to have; the leisure in
their lives they ought to have; the OPP
portunities in life they ought to have; if
you don't want to wait yourselves, write
on your banner so that every political
trimmer can read it, so that every poll
tician no matter how short sighted he
may be, can read it: ''We never forget"
If you launch the arrow of sarcasm at
labor, we never forget If there is a
division in congress and you throw your
vote in the wrong scale we never forget
You may go down on your knees and
say: sI am sorry did the act!' And
we will say: eft will avail you in heaven
but this side of the grave-never So
that a man in taking up the labor ques-
ton will know he is dealing with hair
trigger pistol and will say 81 am to be
true to justice and to man, otherwise
am dead duck. - Wendell Philips.

WHAT sA vs. JIM HALF
Fftzsimmons Is Ready to Fight for
AstOria's Purse.


ASTORIA, March 25.-There is con-
siderable excitement among the local
sports today over the prospects of Hall
and Fitzsimmons fighting here. The
matter was brought up as jest, but has
developed into serious proposition,
which may result in something definite.
John Grant, president of the local club,
today received the following reply to his
telegram to Chicago, offering purse of
$17 900 for the fight:
Handed telegram to Fitzsimmons'
ha9s packer; Sozdd Ne e accepts: Does Hailf l
What will you do?''
A number of prominent members of
the club began an active canvass of the
city today and in very short time sue
ceeded in raising a trifle over 600.
They are in fair way to raise the bal
ance of the sum. Grant will go to Port
land Friday to see Hall, who will be in
that city that day.

THE CHURCH IN Politics.
The Spirit of the Bennett Law Agita
tion in wisconsin VIII Not Down.


ST. PAUL, Mimi, March 25.-The
religious feeling in politics has not died
out yet in Wisconsin. The spirit of the
Bennett law agitation will not down.
In the senate at Madison today bill
came up for consideration, which pro-
vides that all officers authorized to COM
NIT dependent children to industrial
school, asylums or other institutions for
care of dependent children, shall before
commitment inquire into the religious
belief of such children, and take such
belief into consideration in selecting the
institution to which the child is sent
The bill was introduced at the instiga-
ton of the Roman Catholics of Milwau-
kee, and the measure met with consid-
erable opposition. A long debate was
precipitated, in which Senator Joiner led
the opposition in a two hours speech.
He endeavored to show the relation be-
tween church and state. The speech
created great excitement, and the bill
was laid over

THE SUGAR TRUST.
An Attempt to Cheat the Government
Out of g Ia Cents Pound.

New YoRK, March 24.-The sugar
trust, in anticipation of heavy loss on
a large amount of sugar held by the con-
cern April 1, is getting in some fine
work to protect themselves, as outlined
by a well-informed sugar man. The
move seems to be nothing short of plan
to make the government pay over to the
trust more than enough to cover the loss
in selling these goods at the April de-
cline. The law provides for a drawback
of 211a cents per pound on export sugars,
and the same drawback is precisely what
they are believed to be after. The
popular opinion is that the sugar will be
sent abroad i'll order to secure the darw-
back and then be brought back and sold
at April prices

Hardships of the Crew of the Bark
Humboldt.
LONDON, March 25.-The steamer Don
has Ian ded at Plymouth the crew of the
German bark Humboldt, who, when
rescued, had suffered terrible hardships
and were in a dying condition. The
Humboldt sailed from Altata, Mexico,
on the Gulf of California, in September
last, bound for Falmouth. On the voy-
age the crew were stricken with scurvy,
and became SO weak they were almost
insensible. Their teeth were loosened
and their skins became swollen and
and livid. When spoken by the Don,
the Humboldt was in disabled condition
and sinking. All her boats had been
smashed. Two of the crew were already
dead. The survivors were SO exhausted
they had to be hoisted aboard the Don.
They had been i'll for three months.

ing the rates which sleeping-car companies
may charge for accommodations. The law
exists, however. 1t was passed by the Legis-
lature Of 1890, was signed by Governor Hill
on the 18th of June of that year. and by its
terms was to 90 into effect on the LIST OF
May, 1891. So far it has not been observed.
The statute rends as follows:
Any patentee Of q sleepiDg-ear, or his legal
representative. may place his car upon any rail-
road with the assent OF lie corporation owning
or operating such road, and may charge Tor the
use of Tie same, In all cases, 10 each passenger
Occupying IT, 40 cents, which shall eniitle the
passenger to the use of a berth for 90 miles, and
at the rate of 3 mills for every additional mile;
but in no case shall The charge exceed so cents.
The defense set up is that the Legislature
of 1880 modified an old law limiting berth
charges TO 70 cents, adding cents, without
much consideration of the difference of ac-
commodations offered thirty years ago and
at the present time. The counsel of the
New York Central and Hudson River Rail-
way Company said that he believed that one
suit had been commenced to enforce the law.
but ne did not know what had become of
it. Under present conditions it would be
hardly safe for persons of limited means to
set out on a journey on the assumption that
a berth in sleepiDg-cars can be purchased
for so cents day and night.

PRINTING PRESSES.

Some of our contemporaries who have
congratulated themselves that there would
be little or no progress in the construction
of such machinery hereafter. To such the
following paragraph may show that they
are behind the times, and that they have
cut down the size of their respective news
rapers-belittling their appearance in order
to save white paper. The paragraph reads
as follows
a MONSTER PRINTING PRESS.
The New York Herald is now the owner Of the
largest printing press in the world. r. Hoe s.
Co. have been over year building II. 1t makes
one dizzy TO imagine what the monster can do
1t is like fairy tale. 1t will print, cut, PASTE
fold, count and deliver complete $4,000 ten or
twelve page Herdlds in one hour, which Is equiv
alent TO 500 minute, or trife over 13 a sec
ond 1t has a most voractous appetite for white
paper, and is not satisfied with being fed from
one r0ll-it must have three. Each roll is sixty
three inches Wide, and this gigantic ma
chine will consume over twenty-five miles of
this paper In an hour, drawing it in TO throw 1t
out again In the shape Of ReraldS all ready for
the world 10 read. The press has two delivery
outlets. At each the papers are automatically
counted into piles of fifty. No matter how rap
idly these papers come our there is never a mis-
take in the count 1t Is sure as fate. BY an in
genious eontrivance each fftieth paper Is showed
on to the receiving tapes, thus serving as sort
OF tally mark.
This monster seXtuple press Is typical not only
Of The mechanical progress but also of the ad-
vance of science and thought in this progressive
nineteenth century.

AN INCOME TAX.

The Chicago Times is making small effort
TO create favor for the income tax proposed
by the Ohio Democrats by assuring the pub
lie that such men as Mr.. Rockefeller and
Mr.. Vanderbilt would oppose it. The real
objection TO the income tax is that men Of
the Rockefeller stamp will evade it. Prob
ably Mr.. RO ckefeller does not know within
S5,000,000 what he is worth He could not
KIN ow without knowing what effect an an
nouncement of the sale of his stock would
have upon the market The amount of his
income is as uncertain as the amount of his
capital. If there were an income tax he
would probably not pay on more than one
tenth OF. his average yearly income. Another
man with a comfortable income from tangible
property would have to pay tax not only on
the property but on the income derived from
It,. A man in an elastic business with an
elastic conscience would eyade the income tax
almost entirely, while a legitimate business,
conducted by honest men, would be taxed
all the law allowed. Taxation should be
made as nearly uniform as possible. Its aim
should be to tax all property not exempt
once, and none twice. A great source of ir-
ritation to taxpayers is the belief that by
some hOcus-pocus of law they are made TO
contribute more than fair share to sup
port the common burdens Even if the in-
come tax could be enforced equally it would
be in most cases tax upon property which
had already been taxed.

MCKINLEY AND CAMPBELL.

They are making Presidential candidates
this year in Ohio. If Mckinley is elected
he will take his place in the rank Of Repub-
lican candidates, and if Campbell is elected
he will become Cleyeland's most formidable
competitor. He is better politician than
Cleveland, without the reputation of either
Hill or German as purely machine manip-
among men of whom great things are ex-
pected. The friends of Foraker never con-
sdered their candidate in danger until they
discovered that he was badly beaten. Nc
Klnley has won the reputation in Congress
of being one Of the ablest men in either
party. His speech on the Mills Tariff Bill
was a mastery argument. All the promi-
nent men in the House had their turn at the
bill, but Mekinley's speech was conspieu-
Gus among them all. ii he comes out of the
Ohio campaign q winner he will be close at
the front of Presidential aspirants in 1896 if
not in 1892. As he is young man he can
wait for the later date. The issues will be
the tariff and the free coinage of silver.
Times appear to be ON the side of Mckin-
ley. The business of the country is afford
ing an argument in favor of the Republican
policy on both these questions more conclu-
sive than stump speech can possibly be.
Neither candidate has much personal ad-
vantage over the other. Both are able and
honest men. There will be no mud-tbrow-
ing in the campaign, at least not by the
principals.

THE ANTI-DLAINE CONSPIRACY.

The Bar Harbor young lady who is re-
ported to have taken contract to keep Mr..
Blaine sick until September excuses herself
on the ground that she was obeylng orders
She claims to have been instructed by the
Mai and Express newspaper and several
members of the Republican National Com
mittee to create the impression throughout
the country that Mr.. Blaine was in the last
stages of disease. The story the Bar Harbor
young lady tells is extremely improbable
The impossibility of keeping such con-
spiracy concealed for any considerable
period of time would prevent men of sense
from going into it. Colonel Shepherd of
the Mai and Express and the members of
the National Committee would have known
that the discovery of such cons piracy
would be the political ruin of every Re-
publican engaged in it 1t would be slow
down" politics for a political opponent, but
infinitely worse in political friends. The
feeling Of the average politician may be in
ferred by the following from the New York
Sun. published before the Bar Harbor wo-
man correspondent made her confession:
The history of American polItcs-we are con.
strained to add, the history OF American journal.

What influence is behind 1t we do not know
Certainly not Benjamin Harrison, as is here and
there intlmated. The President may have as
much reason to fear Mr.. Blaine for the future as
lie has to be grateful 10 him for the past but
General Harrison is not the man to carry on,
directly or by proxy, preliminary campaign for
the Presidential nomination by methods rt only
for Charles jules Guiteau or the New York
World.
Mr.. Dana admits that some Republicans
may have had hand in this conspiracy,
but acquits President Harrison of such an
act. We might add. of such folly A Presi-
dental candidate could not sign away his
chance more effectively than by entering
into such conspiracy against rival. Tho

pose to represent Mr.. Blaine in a worse

GRAPPLED WITH THE THIEF.
But the Only Man in the House Was

But the Only DIan in the House Was
Asleep and She Had to Let Go.
Mrs. NJ. A. Biscoe, who conducts a gen.
eral store at COG North Mount street, reports
to the police-that an attempt was made to
burglarizs the house on Saturday night. Her
daughter Florence heard noise in the front
room on the second story at IL 80 o'clock,
and younger daughter said she heard
door slam shortly after, but little attention
was paid to this and Mrs. Biscoe did not
think of them again until she started from
her sittiug-room toward the store about
II o'clock. She then saw a large negro
standing on the staircase Just below the
landing. Without moments thought
Mrs Biscoe ran toward the man, caught
him around the neck, and pulling him
downstairs dragged him into the sitting
room. Here she called for assistance. a
young man who was visiting her daugh ter,
instead of coming TO her aid ran away
Mrs. BiscOe was forced to relinquish her
hold on the intruder, who quickly escaped
by scaling the back wall.
Nothing was taken by the man, but a
large lot of jewelry was found lying on the
floor in one of the upper rooms. Mrs. Bis
GOES house has been visited by thieves twice
in the year. Once $40 was taken, and at
another time the thief made away with

house at the time. but he was asleep, and
the mother could not awaken him until too
