Protection Gains Ground in Eng
land.

Protection Gains Ground in Eng
land.
In 1885, when the depression in
trade and industry in England had
continued for so long a period and
become so grievous as to alarm all
classes the English Government ap-
pointed aroyal commission to inquire
into and report upon the extent, ma
ture and causes of the depression and
as to how it could be alleviated 1t
IS not generally known in this coun-
try that portion of this commission
recommended a protective tariff as a
measure of relief. This information
was printed in Sundays Press. The
facts were furnished By Hon. Thomas
H. Dudley, late United States Consul
at Liverpool, now a resident of New
Jersey. The English commission con-
sisted of twenty-three persons of high
character and ability. They report
I'll in December, 1886. and was unani-
nous in their agreement that great
depression then existed in the trade
and industry of great Britain. They
differed about the causes of the de-
preston and differed about the meas
ures necessary to remove it and to
revive prosperity. The minority rec
commended a protective tariff as the
best means to this end.
None of these recommendations,
either of the majority or the minority
was ever carried out, and Mr.. Dudley
is authority for the statement that
the condition of things with the
manufacturing andlaboring elements
has grown worse rather than better
than they were when this commission
was appointed. One-fourth of the
mills in England are either closed or
working on what is called "short
time" to-day, while the balance of
trade goes on increasing against the
country year by year, until for the
last fifteen years it has aggregated
the enormous sum of 81, 700, 100000.
The agricultural industry of England
is only one-third what it was twenty
years ago, and is nearly ruined.
Such Illustrations as these and
comparison of these facts with the
prosperity of the United States under
Il protective policy should fully salts
fly the people of this country that
protection is the sound principle for
us to follow.-N. Y. Press.

Vermont In Congress.

A Washington letter to the Spring
field Republican has this word in re-
gard to Vermonters in Congress.
The Vermont delegation in the two hous-
es of Congress is still a strong one in spite OF
the retirement of Mr. Edmunds. Senator
Morrill, is looked upon as the father of the
senate and one of the soundest heads on
finance in the entire body. His recent absence
from the chamber during the illness of his
wife caused sincere regret, not only from the
sympathy which all felt for him, but from
| the lack of his counsel ard clear views on the
committee on finance. Ex-Secretary Proctor
and zen. circuit make q striking-looking pair
with strength of character stamped on the
faces of both, as they saunter arm-in-arm
from the senate to the house or back again.
Gen. CIRCUIT has stood some bitter attacks
from disappointed politicians at home. but
the people OF Vermont are not easily intu-
enced by that sort of thing, and Vermont
will be the loser if she does not send him
back again. Judge Powers with no previous
record here, has always made his mark by his
judicial mind and keen legal ability | have
heard Democratic representative himself a
lawyer, say that Judge Powers was one of
the ablest lawyers in the house. His vote
last week to seat the Democratic contestant
in the Pennsylvania case showed that he has
not yet fallen into the partisan groove which
1T IS so hard for men who come here to keep
out OF, and which leads them to submit their
Judgment and conscience TO the decree of the
party caucus.

DEMOCRATIC PLEDGEs.-It was very
amusing during the silver debate at
Washington Monday to hear Mr..
Williams, the hard money Massachu-
setts Democrat, appealing to the ma
jority to keep the pledges of the
Democratic party in favor of sound
money, and then to hear Mr.. Pierce,
the free silver Democrat from Ten
nessee, exhorting the Democrats to
keep the pledges they had made that
free silver bill should be passed.

HIPS Windy Claim.

David B. Hills pledge of New York
to vote the Democratic ticket for
President, of course, means q pledge
on his part that the state will vote
for himself, for David b. Hill never
works for the Democratic ticket IN
any other way. In fact, the last time
the Democrats were trying to elect a
President, David B. Hill traded away
the vote of New York to the opposi-
ton. But how absurd is the claim
that New York will vote for Hill in
the face of the Republican victories
just won throughout its length and
BREADTH victories gained primarily
because the people were Disguised
with Hill, and were determined to
make it apparent. But these only
SKINNED the surface of the popular
Indignation against the man. Hill
would be defeated in New York, we
believe, bynearer hundred thousand
than fifty thousand majority.-Bos-

The Democrats promised after the

its democratic majority of 1856, that
while they expected to reduce the
appropriations one hundred millions,
the full amount asked for pensions
would be granted. The bill just re-
ported to the House by the democrat,
ic committee makes the pension ap-
preparations over tweIve-million dol
lars less than the estimates show will
be required for next year. This will
mean a postponement of payments
due to pensioners the last of next
year, until after a new congress has
appropriated enough money to pay
the deficiency. And it is on such
sbams as this that the democrats
will soon be pointing to their "econ-
omy" as shown byreduced appropri-
ations.

From certain quarters of the state
are heard bowls for a delegation of
young men to Minneapolis. No more
absurd scheme could be preached
1t is at such a gathering, if any
where, that the old heads should
manage things. 1t is of the greatest
consequence to send there men who
have a wide acquaintance and who
know the men that know things.
The political liar is numerous and
artful on such occasions, and a crowd
of young men might believe him,
whereas older and more experienced
men could not be fooled.
