appropriations Of the session would exceed
@c00, 000, 900. notwithstanding the extraordinary
efforts Of the House of Representatives to keep
them within reasonable bounds. 1t was not
altogether party matter. for these immense
appropriations were partly made necessary be-
cause Of the growth Of the country, the extern
sion OF the postal service and the extern
sion OF the pension system and other perma-
nent and necessary expenditures for which
neither party should be held responsible. OF
at the present session, $50, OO0, 900 had become
necessary because Of the legislation Of the Fifty

reduced.
Senator Cockrsr also spoke in the same vein.
READY TO ADJOURN.
Senators Allison and German were appointed
committee to inform the President that, unless
he had further communication to make, the
two houses were ready to adjourn, and in COM

and ONeill they left the chamber. During
their absence the Senate adopted resolutions.

The commercial policy of this country
is q matter of interest and moment to
our friends over the seas. Our British
friends in particular are keenly alive to
what is going on here, and they do
moro or less talking out in meeting.
Some OF them think that in the present
crisis they ought to do less talking and
give the Democratic party chance.
Not long ago there was held in Lon
don a congress OF the chambers OF COM
merce of tho empire. On June 2S Mr..
D. F. stiebel, president Of the Noting
ham chamber Of commerce, took the
floor and gave his brethren . friendly
warning In this cautious and carefully
guarded way:
L.. me say that think at this moment, when

Every man there wanted to help the
Democratic free trade party on this
side Of the Atlantic. Every man there
should have known that public express
sions OF sympathy are not long in
reaching this country, where the Re-
publican press takes great pleasure in
reproducing them. The Liverpool
Echo understands the situation and this

Two coming important events of in
terest to sailors and soldiers of the late
war will be the Reunion OF the Naval
Veterans at Baltimore, September 10Th
to 10Th, and the Encampment OF the
Grand Army of the Republic at Wash
ington, commencing September goth,
Immediately after the Sailors Reunion.
Interest IN the reunion will be height
ened BY the presence Of the White
Squadron in the harbor Of Baltimore.
The G. A. R. Encampment will be the
occasion of the greatest military Assem-.
blage in Washington since the Grand
Review of 1855, following the fall OF
Richmond. For both of these events
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad will sell
tickets at'greatly reduced rates, and will
grant most liberal concessions in the
way Of stop-over privileges. Tickets
will be sold from September 18th to
Goth inclusive, valid for return journey

An Object Lesson.

Elsewhere will be found an article
giving an account of how the Mckinley
tariff has benefited one great branch of
American industry, and given it fresh
impetus The most interesting feature
Of the showing is that the wages ofeight
thousand glove.makers were increased
twenty-five cents per day each, and yet
the price of gloves has decreased five
per cent to "the consumer"
The reason for this is that owing to
the Mckinley bill the importaaons OF
foreign gloves decreased 100000 dozen
pairs the first year Of the operation Of
the law, and Just that many more gloves
were manufactured at Gloversville and
Johnstown, New York, giving employ

ment to greater number Of people 81
inreased waga. The manufacturers
profit ON each pair Of gloves isof course
decreased, but his aggregate netincome
is increased because he makes and sells
more gloves.
Here is a striking object lesson illus
trating how the tariff, when made pro-
tectiye, does benefit our home indus
tries and our home labor. In this in
stance it increased wages, but even sup
pose 1t had not done this, it would, at
least, have given employment to a
greater number of wage workers at the
wages already being paid and which
were greater than those received by
glove makers in Europe.

The Chicago Inter. Ocean, in discussing
the switchmen's strike deals with a
phase of it that is too apt not to receive
proper consideration from the public.
Whatever may be the issues involved in
the strike, or however We may all sym
pathize with the workmen in their de-
mand for an increase of wages, no one
will contend that the switchmen are
justified from any standpoint in tramp
ling under foot all laws and equities.
In their case the violence and incen-
diarism which has been resorted to is
even less excusable than such infrac-
tions of the law by some other classes
OF strikers. On this point the Inter
OCEAN says:
Though men In private employment may
Without With WsrninS the matter Is altogether dier
emit in the case Of railroad employees, who are
quaSi.public servants. Switchmen who desert
their posts without due notification OF their IN
tention commit public wrong; but when they
attempt by violence to prevent other men per;
forming their abandoned duties at critical
time, when the property and interests Of thou;
sands Of innocent persons are tmpertled, ana
whom TO this Antagonism they add the atrocities
OF attacks upon Individual life and the wanton
endSngering OF hundreds OF lives collectively,
they became outlaws and should BIO dealt with
accordingly.
The welfare, the personal safety and
the property of thousands of innocent
people are endangered by the actions Of
the men on strike in New York. and
not the interests OF their late employers
against whom they have the grievance.
1t is not likely they can gain their point
without the assistance Of a healthy pub
lie sentiment, and this they cannot hope
for SO long as they imperil the property
and lives of people who are in no way
to blame for the condition of affairs.

why This silenceq

Isn't 1t about time for the free trade
demagogue to charge to the account of
Republican protection the terrible riots
in the Tennessee mining region, where
free wage workers are carrying on a
crusade against the odious convict labor
system established by Democratic
legislature?
Cannot some talented editor point
out the fact that these scenes of blood
have been enacted since the passage of
the Mckinley bill2 True, the disturb.
ances are caused by the convict lease
system, but it would be Just as sensible
to charge the possibility Of its existence
to protection, as to charge to protec-
TONS account any other contract labor
system.
Our free trade friends might ar
que that if it were not for the tariff
which protects coal the mines of Ten
nesses would not be there, and conse.
quently there would be no convict
miners and no free miners to fight
them, and, therefore, no bloody riots.
Seriously speaking, why are our DEM

fects of the Democratic convict lease

1t would be very sad to defeat Mr..
Cleveland with the jawbones Of the
asses who can't restrain themselves
long enough to wait until the election
is over. They should content them
selves with protecting British indus
tries by supplying the Democratic
campaign fund literally with the sim
ews of war.
To denounce the protective tariff and
hurrah for the Democratic party and
for Cleveland as a man after the Brit
ish heart, is to furnish CAMPAIGN ma
terial which American protectionists
will not be slow to use, because it
proves conclusively that to support the
Democratic party is to support foreign
interests and to put the knife into
home interests.
1t is strange that our friends the
enemy from over the seas can't see all
