CONNECTICUT AND THE TARIFF.

IL would not seem that the Connecticut
Democrats are In any doubt about the
effects OF the Mckinley tariff on the ma
tion. II anywhere the "bcncAts' of the
act should have shown themselves In the
busy little manufacturing State; but on
the contrary, the platform OF Monday
charges that "The false logic OF this dis
astrous mckinley policy has already
ended in broken pledges, and in place OF
promised work there are shorter hours,
and instead Of better wages there are all
but universal reductions
Had this come from the Democrats OF
Montana or Oregon there might appear
to be some doubt about truth OF it, but
il is a matter OF "bread and butter" with
the citizens OF Connecticut, and when
they appeal to "the farmers the manu-
facturers and the workmen alike" to en-
trust a tariff revision "on sound princi-
pies to the Democratic party" there is &
sound about it that compels attention
These Democrats are not shoutcrs fol
free trade; they know, however where
the high tariff pinches them-the real
workers-in their homes.

AWFUL REVELATIONS.

more than usually serious aspect is
given to the Pension Office investigation
by the testimony OF a clerk, who says en-
ployes have been permitted to break off
ice in the water cooler with ink-erasers,
hairpins and similar implements TO make
milk punches, cold tea and the like.
This is as terrible as it was unexpected.
The whole country will hear the news
with horror, and hands and eyes will be
lifted heavenward In depreciation Of the
heinous doings.
The milk punch and cold tea features
OF II are not so bad, though people gener-
ally will be somewhat surprised 10 learn
that the speak-easy he's honrished and
been a source OF great fructification in
the Pension Office. The enormity OF the
offense lies in the use OF ink-erasers and
hairpins for ice-picks, and the miscella-
neous mingling OF these articles with the
water In the Office cooler. OF course the
clerks have the excuse that they couldn't
use their powder rags or pocket mirrors
for chipping OF ice, and they may have
been sensitive about dipping a shoe brush
or a curry-comb into the cooler; but that
does not palliate the crime.
