THE Republican party leaders do not
know what to make of Blaines letter to
Chairman Clarkson. A number of them
are living in hopes Of being able to per-
suade the ''plumed knight" to re-enter
the race. There are others, principally
the Office holders, who do not want to
change the programme any. They think
Harrison Will be his own successor, and
that they will, therefore, be safe for four
years more, and possibly six, if Congress
man Springer's bill becomes law. It
looks as if Blaine might yet become
candidate, or rather accept the nom;na-
ton, if it came to him unanimously, but
the Harrison mon will see to it that no
such scheme es that goes through. Har-
rison is stronger with his party to-day
than he WIS two years ago. and his
friends in the convention, which will
meet mere June 7th, will see that enough
opposition to Blaine is generated to pre-
vent the latter's nomination. Yes;
Blaine is out to remain out, and Har-
rison will be re- nominated, but he will
not be reelected The country wants g
deliverance from high tariff, and the
Democratic party is the only party it can
expect that relief from.

THE CHURCH ON RECORD.

Last Sundays meeting at the Lyceum
Theatre had one good effect that must
not be lost sight of by Catholics no matter
what their politics or what their lndl-
vidual opinion on the question at issue.
It brought out the official pronounce
ment of the bishops of the United States
on the Sunday, it's observance and its
dissertation. The reading OF that extract
from the Pastoral Letter of the Fathers
of the Council of Baltimore, was received
with as much enthusiasm as it's contents
were surprising to non-Catholics. They
had notion that an opinion on Sunday
closing had never been given by the
Church as body, and that what one
priest condemned in this line another
could with impunity wink at or approve.
They we're accordingly agreeably sur
prised to see that the Church by les Off
cial letter puts the mark of opprobrinm
on any collision with. sympathy for or
connivance at the saloon and especially
condemns the dissertation of Sunday by
opening or patronizing saloons. The fol-
lowing are the words of the bishops as
read by Father Byrne They place the
Church on the side of decency and good
order whether this banner be raised in
good faith Or merely to down the adj
ministration of our city: "There is one
way of profaning the Lords day which
is SO prolific of evil results that we con-
slider it our duty to utter against it a
special condemnation. This is the prac-
tice Of selling beer or other liquors on
Sunday, or of frequenting places whore
they are sold. This practice, more than
any other, tends to turn the day of the
Lord into day of dissipation, to use it
as an occasion for breeding intemper-
ance. While we hope that Sunday laws
on this point will not be relaxed, but
even more rigialy enforced, we implore
all Catholics for the love of God and of
country never to take part in such Sun
day traffic, nor to patronize DOR counte-
nance it. And we not only direct the at
tention of all pastors to the repression Of
this abuse, but We also call upon them
to induce all of their focl1s that NAV be
engaged in the sale of liquors to abandon
as soon as they can the dangerous traffic,
aad to embrace a more becoming way of
making a living"

The Democratic congressman are de-
termined to make some we'll merited in
Democratic members of the ways and
means committee want wool admitted
free Of duty, and after laboring with the
balance Of the committee, recently, all
agreed to reduce all duties below 40 per
cent, as we'll as those above 40 per cent.
The present duty on WOODEN goods is 60
per cent; cheap woolens will be reduced
to Is per cent. So it can be seen that
the Democratic representatives at Wash
ington are DESTROYS OF helping the poorer
classes by reducing the tariff almost one
half on the goods they wear. That is
what tariff reform means.

PRESIDENT HARRISON has appointed
Roland B. Mahoney, of New York, as
minister to Ecuador. It is said that the
appointment was made at the request OF
Secretary Blaine, who was a great adj
mirer of Mr.. Mahoney. The story goes
that when Blaine was running against
Cleveland, Mahoney was a student at
Harvard college, and that number OF
the students OF the college opposed
Blaine, who was warmly defended by
Mahoney. If this report is true Blaine
deserves credit for remembering his
young friend.

n. S. SENATOR'S.

How shall we elect our 3. S. senators?
That is the question that is exciting
much discussion in Washington these
days For some time past there has been
feeling against the present system OF
naming senator's aud that feeling has not
grown any less The people believe that
these senators should pass through the
same ordeal that congressional candidates
20 through, and that the system OF elect
ing them in the state legislatures wrong,
There is no doubt, whatever, but that
this legis' alive elective system is not
right, and that the people of the differ
emit states should have vote, as we'll as
a voice in the selection of these upper
house candidates. The present system,
in addition to depriving the people of a
privilege they ought to have, opens the
doors to many opportunities Of fraud and
the like 1t gives the man who has the
largest pocletbook chance of corraling
enough votes to elect him; while if he
were obliged to go through the same
mill that candidates for other offices pass
through. his bank account would not
elect him. He would require to have
something besides money to place him In
the United States senate. It has come
to this that to he senator q man must
have money, brains being a secondary
consideration. To bring this matter as
near the people as possible, and place it
nnder their control, the house commit
toe on election a few days ago agreed to
report bill leaving the election of sena-
tors to the people, and comforting exclu
sive power on the state legislatures to fix
the time, place and manner of holding
such elections. The next thing, of
course, is to see that the committees re-
port IS adopted and bill covering the
main features Of the accommodation of
the committse passed. OF course such a
bill will meet with great deal of oppo-
Etion in the senate, but we doubt it the
members of that house dare reject it.
The people at large, and not the few,
should have a voice in this matter, and
they will, too.

TIE PRESENT PARLIAMENT.

Mr.. Gladst ,ne, evidently, considers the
present session of parliament Of very
little Importance, otherwise he would
have returned from Italy before this.
Mr.. Gladstone is in Italy now where he
has been for some time, and according to
self. His son, Hegbsrt. accompanied
him, but did not remain loag. having re-
turned TO England several days ago. As
to his fathers health, young Gladstone
says that the form - us IN the habit OF
taking regular sly-lnlte walks and that
this pedestrian exercise, seemingly ex-
cessive for one Of his advanced years,
does not seem to tire him in the least.
He has entirely recovered from the eff
fects Of the attack OF inf1usnza from
which he suffered in Eng|a an.l8is now
in the enjoyment of vigorous health"
This is most agreeable news, and the
many thousand admirers of the 'Grand
i Old Man" will rejoice to know that he is
still active and earnest in daily routine
of life. AS the ex-premier has not signi-
fed his attention OF soon returning to
England, We are inclined to believe that
he anticipates dissolution of parliament
very soon, and will therefore remain on
81 the continent until the general elections
ARE held, when be will return full Of life

the assets were afterwards reduced to

TARIFF REFORM.

congress proposes 10 GO some good
business for the country this season, and
knowing that the Democrats are in the
majority, we are the most confident that
| these promises will be carried out. Be-
fore the Mckinley tariff law Went into
effect there were many articles that
should have been on the free list. When
Mckinley started out to tinker the tariff
he almost doubled the duties on the
necessarles Of life, and lowered it On the
Injuries Sugar was the only thing that
Mckinley believed would get along with
out the sweets ~ of protection, and as a
result we can purchase a reasonable
amount OF it for dollar now. But the
duties on woolan goods he raised twenty
five per cent Now there is nothing
that the average American citizen uses
more than WOODEN goods. The cheaper
kind of these goods shared the same fate
as the finest quality, and still the present
governor of Ohio has said, more than
once during the past year, that his bill
would prove, and had already proven a
blessing to the country. Before the Nc
kinlev tariff bill became law the duty
on WOODEN goods was thirty-fve cents a
pound, besides an ad va(orem duty Of
forty per cent This ad valore N duty by
the recent robber tariff act was increased
twenty-five per cent, and now let us see
who is benefited by this increase; the
manufacturer or the consumer? As the
manufacturers receipts on WOODEN goods
increased twenty-five per cent, he was
therefore able to pay that much addi-
tional wages to his help, but did he do
it? No, he did not; the wages to-day are
no higher, nor as high in many instances
as they were year ago, while the cost Of
the necessaries Of life have increased
