HOW II WOlthS.

There was tariff of SIT on a ton of
steel rails put there so as 10 enable the
mill owners to pay higher wages, and
so on. The mill owners forthwith
formed trust so as to make them able
to pay higher wages, and so forth. Nc
KINLEY cut the tariff to S13.44 a ton so
as to enable the mill men to give lower
wages, of course. They tried it, and
gave the country the Homestead affair."
Ten thousand tons OF rails have been
bought in England to be delivered in
Seattle. The Chicago branch of the
trust shut down their mill the other day,
and 1000 men will have to compete with
men in other work for living until

English rails laid down on the Pacific
coast cheaper than 1t can buy them in
Chicago and lay them down there.
English iron workers are thus kept busy
while ours are idle.
Why is this unnatural condition pos
sible? The English rails cost Sl9.44 a
ton. The duty is S1344; the freight
about 50. Laid down, they cost about
S35. The Minneapolis convention asked
for a tariff to cover the difference in the
cost of labor here and abroad. The com
missionerof labor reports that S13 A a ton

~ tariff of 20 per cent would cover that
difference. 1t is over 60 per cent. The
trust demands 1872 so q ton for It's rails

Seattle added makes the English rail the

AN AMERICAN DUEI.1sr.

We cannot commend the sauguinary
principle of the American who has IN
troduced death as a novel feature in
European duelS, but are bound to con-
feSs that, as compared with the average
French duellSt, he is a man of good
aims. He brought down his man at the
second fire, and the two considerations
that the victim was 4 real Russian
count, and that Monte Carlo furnished
the mise en- scene for the tragedy add
great luSter and eclat to the event. An
American who can shoot a Russian
count to death in The bowery gardens of
Monte Carlo just as the dawning dawn
crImsons the eastern wall of heaven,i is an
American on whom OUIDA would lust
dote, and whom ARCHIBALD CLAvERING
GUNTER would pay big price to copy
right. The intimation that the count
was none other than a grand duke in
disguise completes chapter of gor-
geouS realism which may well be the
despair and envy of lurid romancists.

THE NEW YORK SENATOR
SHIP.

1t appears that, after all, there is TO be
q contest over the New York senator
ship TO succeed HIsCOCK. Mr.. EDWARD
MURPHY Jr. is net to have the walk
over that was expected for him when
the Hill-Tammany faction announced
him as its candidate. New York bust
ness men have entered vigorous pro-
test against MIR. MURPHY. chiefly on the
ground that New York city is entitled
to one of the New York SenatorshlpS.
and that the interests of that metropolis
require representative in the senate
who could WELD a broader influence
than it would be possible for Mr..
MURPHY to WELD. The New York
Herald, which has usually affilat
ed with the Hill Tammany ele
ment, departs from its traditions
and joins the opposition on the sena-
torial issue. 1t objects to Tammany
dictatorship of Mr.HISCOCK'sS successor.
and although its objection at first took
the half-hearted and ridiculous form of
a 'boom' for CHARLES A. DANA, the
Herald has now gotten down to serious
anu W 4hIs 1h
ambition.
The most important and effective op-
position of all, however, comes from
Mr.. CLEVELAND himself. The presi-
dent-elect has done that which few eX-
pected he would do, yet which is entire
ly consistent with the unvarying aggres-
sivenesS and courage of his public career.
He has "interfered" in the senatorial
question to the extent of emphatically
declaring i'll newspaper interview his
inability to appreciate the advantages
that might accrue to New York and the
Democratic party from the election Of
Mr.. MURPHY to the senate. Combined
with the other oppoSiSion to Nr. MUIR
PLY. this plain statement of Mr. .CLEvE-
LANDS views makes the coast look
rather squally for the Troy candidate.
FREDERICK CoUDERT is proposed as
compromise candidate, but far like
lier solution of the problem is that
WILLIAM G. WHITNEY himself will be
sent to the senate from New York, as
the man in whom all factions of his
party in the Empire state and in the
whole country have trust and conf

THE PASSING OF TILE CRIsIs.

The cabled announcement from
France that Baron DE- REINACH died
from entirely natural and legitimate
causes comes as an anti-climax to the
luridly melodramatic incidents of the
French crisis. Instead of thickening,
the plot is thinning, and becoming decid-
edIy weak and watery. The whole
background of blood and thunder drops
out of sight behind the certified fact
that De REINACH neither committed
suicide nor was murdered. Only the
light and airy burlesquers, such as Gle
MENCEAU and DERoULEDE and other
professional dueIliSts, are now left ca
pering before the footlights. The other
actors have all gone to prison or to
the prosaic parliamentary investigation,
or to the Hague for their health. In
its financial aspects the scandal still re-
tains its huge dimensions; but its dra-
matte interest has woefully waned. NO
mysterious murder, no sensational sui
cide-only bloodless duels and itching
palms. The republic is safe, and the
''b)odiers' will be punished. We can
afford to shrug our shoulders now in
truly Gallo fashion at the French crisis.
1t has ceased to crise.

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-Pending the ne

BISMARCK, N. D.. Dec. 29.-In the SUI
preme court this morning several deciS-
ions were handed down, being a portion
of the cases argued and submitted at
the recent term held in Grand Forks.
A. Ii. Parker VS.. The FIRST National
Bank of Lisbon was an action for con-
version of wheat, and was brought un-
der statute of this state that admits of
4 lien being filed for the price of thresh-
ing grain. giving it priority over all
other membranes. The court held
that ''in order to preserve a lien
for threshing grain the statement
which the statute directs to be filed,
must contain description of the land
whereon the grain upon which the lien
is claimed. was grown. No party is
entitled to a lien under the provisions
of that chapter unless he owns and op-
crates the machine with which the
threShing was done. An action for the
conversion Of personal property cannot
be maintained unless plaintiff was in
possession or held a legal right to imme-
diate possession of the property con-
verted at the time OF the conversion" "
