NOT ARLE TO RLUSH.

In one of his recent speeches Mr.. Nc
KINLEY said: "One great glory of the
Republican party is that it can look
into the past without blushing, and into
the future without fear" 1t has been
facetiously suggested that there are
people who become so indurated to
methods and associations that are de-
moralizing that they lose the sensibili-
ties that incite the blush. A party may
lose sight of its first principles, i'm bue
itself with the narcotics of vicious in
diligence and become incapacitated to
the blush of shame. The larceny of the
presidency in 1876 should mantle the
cheek of the self-respecting Republican
in all time. The reference to the future
is bravado. Its only hope is to per-
suade the people that it does not really
mean high tariff restraints, but wants
free trade reciprocity.

Subsidies for Steamships.

IuuIdIIdpOHs otnuntI-
President Harrison's Galveston speech
was largely devoted to the question of
subsidies to steamship lines. He re-
peated the statement that every other
great nation in the world subsidies
steamship lines. which is not true, and
he neglected to say that no other great
nation prohibits its citizens from buy
ing ships in other countries and sailing
them under their own flags. The presi-
dent is either wofully ignorant on the
subject of subsidies or his treatment of
it is exceedingly dishonest.

was fixed by the legislature of 1889 in

Minneapolis Tribune as to the expenses
of the two SeSsionS-S165,0 600 in 1891 and
$40, 17t.53 III 1SS9-we find that the leg
