DEMOCRATIC STUPIDITY.
How the Free Grade Crowd i
Congress are Sealing Their boo m

AAD W. ING Free 4EANS crowd 1M
Congress are Sealing Their Doom.
WASHINGTON, April 10. The democrats
in passing the free woel bill have sealed
their fate on the Pacific coast, says a Cali
fornia Congressman. "Our people will un-
derstand, y he said, with a party which
seeks to strike down our great industry.
It will support the party which will pre-
vent them from striking it down, what
ever may happen to the Chinese bill" The
democrats, however, continue llair attack
upon the farmers In the direction Of
making further inroads on the products Of
the farm, Mr.. Cummings, of New York,
introduced bill to take off the duty on
onions and potatoes, while the ways and
means committee has already considered
bill to take off the duty duty on barley by
the Mckinley act. The democratic mem
bers of the ways and means committee
have been urged to report bill to take off
the duty on refined sugar, because the SUI
gar trust has gobbled up all the American
refneries. There has been discussion Of
such bill but it appears that serious OBJ
jections have been made to it by demo-
Gratis OF great influence in the party who
are liberal contributors to the democratic
campaign. The sugar trust is a New York
concern and the chief stockholders are
promenent democrats. For this reason it
Is not probable that any bill to take off the
dnty on refined sugar will be passed by
this house

THE sElTThE CONVENTION.
Will 1t be Ring Ruie or will the RE-
pubItcams Have Common SenseP

Special to the Tribune
SEATTLE, April 13.-The republican con
vention which meets here tomorrow may
do great deal of good for the party in the
fall or it may cripple it worse than the Sc
attic election did. Whether it will be in
the hands of the ring or not renal to be
seen. Just at present Banker McGraw, Of
Seattle, Banker Cannon, Of Spokane.
Banker Ferguson, Of Snohomish, Banker
Emerson, Of Hoquiam, Banker Nick Ow-
ings, of Olympia, and other capitalists ap-
pears to be in the swim. If ring rule pre-
walls it is possible that eight bankers NAV
be chosen to go to MINNEAPOLIS and that
the farmer or the Grand Army vote It is
argued that these positions are mere homo
rary ones, but if the convention makes
such grave mistake of selecting monied
men only torepresentthe bone and sinew Of
the party, it might as well not meet to
make any nominations in the fall.
Resolutions will be adopted en-
dorsing the administration of Governor
Ferry President Harrison and the match
less Blaine and in favor of the protective
tariff policy of the republican party. The
eight delegates, whoever they may be, will
not be instructed. The convention will
have nothing to do with fixing the time
and place Of holding the next republican
state convention, but resolution may be
adopted urging that the state capital be
selected as the proper place for holding the
future political conventions of the party.
Quite number of the leading politicians
OF the state are already here, and every
train and boat is bringing more The con
Ventlon will not get under way until to-
morrow afternoon

Troy, N. H., April 13. The ballot boxes
Of the Fourth ward Of Cohoos, which were
were taken to the police station yesterday,
are still there, but Henry A. Strong, repub-
liean, for mayor, is elected with out them.
The Fourth ward being republican would
only increase his majority The seizure of
these boxes arose out of the fact that much
money was bet on rival democratic candi-
dates, and one faction sought to prevent
the other, which had control Of the ballot
boxes from unduly initiating its count.

How He Came Very Near Being
whipped Some Time Ago.
WASHINGTON, April Senator Hill i,
making himself disliked in the senate,
seat in which body does not seem to have
helped his presidential boom to any greai
extent. The last man to get after him with
a prodding-stick is Senator Morgan, who
helped Hill in his Southern tour, now more
notorious than famous and who feels ag.
grieyed because the New York politician
has refused by evasion, to support Mr.
Morgan's resolutions and give the senate
an opportunity to discuss the silver ques-
tion.
But Mr.. Hill did not propose to be pinned
down that way. To save himself from the
charge of cowardice he was in his seat on
Friday, but he instructed his private secre-
tary to be on the lookout for the venerable
SoUtherner and supply full information as
to Morgan's movements. The result was
a ludicrous game of hide-and-seek that
amused the dec0rous senators and sent the
galleries into paFoXYsms of mirth When
Senator Morgan's gray forelock appeared
at one door Senator HIPS coat tails disap-
peared out of another; when the Alabaman
went to the cloak room the New Yorker re-
sumed his seat; when the former returned
the latter blithely fitted away to his hiding
place, and the private secretary remained
on watch. And so it went all the afternoon.
Mr.. Hill tried to dissemble and appear ull-
conscious. but he failed miserably. and
only made himself ridiculous in the eyes Of
his brother senator's That night be es-

since coming to Washington because the
Tammany methods which he persists in
using are not considered Just the proper
thing in the nations capital. His experi-
ence with Representative O'Ferral, the
hery Vlrglnlan, proves that even the less
dlgnltied members of the lower house are
prone to resent anything that smacks of
bossism. The story Of the encounter be-
tween these two gentlemen has been tele-
gTaphed to the world, but all the facts have
not come out, and they show that Mr. Hill
narrowly escaped being literally FtsWiped''
out of the Presidential race ovid punch y
as the prize ring patron would say. OFFER
raj who is fighter, as the wounds on his
body bear evidence, is chairman of the cleo

and Rockwell is his creature, so his person.

while all the New York courts decided
against him, he secured the certificate by
trick before the courts could interfere,

the day, not long ago, when he accepted
