CARLISLE ANSWERED.
Cost of Living Reduced by the Mckinley
Law.

Cost of Living Reduced by the Mckinley
Law.
Senator Carlisle's ingenious but not
entirely ingenious argument, in which
he attempted to show that the cost of
living had beel increased by the McKin-
ley tariff, has been ablylRnswered by
Senator Hiscock. That gentleman, in a
speech in the senate on Aug. l, COM
pletely swept away Senator Carlisle's
arguments. He showed that the only
increase in the cost of living in the
twenty-seven months covered by the SEN
ate finance committee investigation was
in prices Of such articles of food as are
produced by the farmers Of this country.
On the other hand, in articles which per-
tain to daily life, such as clothing, fuel,
tools, lumber and building materials,
house furnishing goods, drugs and every
thing Of this character, there had been a
decided reduction in cost. The advance
in prices of agricultural products are
of course largely due to the increased
demand abroad, and the increased
amount that the people of this country
must pay for food cannot properly be
charged to the tariff. On the other
hand, Senator Hiscock shows from SEN
ator Carlisle's own figures that there has
been such marked reduction in prices
of other articles Of daily use, and affect
ed by the tariff, as to warrant the con-
clusion that the cost of living was re-
duced through the action of the McKin-
ley law in the sum of over 81, ,OOO, 900 In
the period between October, 1889, and
September, 1891. Senator Hiscock's
speech on this subject has been printed
in full by the Republican national COM
mittee.

AMERICA FOR AMERICANS.
The Presidents Prompt Action in the
Venezuelan Matter.

Venezuelan Matter.
Venezue!s's appeal for protection
from the threatening encroachments of
Great Britain upon the territory of that
little republic, which was made in vain
to this country in 1887, when Secretary
Bayard was at the head of the state de-
partment, has been answered by Presi-
dent Harrison. The situation is one
which will undoubtedly give an op-
portunity for the emphatic assertion by
the president of the famous Monroe
doctrine-an assertion which was evaded
by President Cleveland's administra-
tion, despite the pathetic appeal of the
Venezuelan government.
The sealed instructions which were
delivered to Admiral Walker on board
the Chicago intrusted him with mis-
sion more important, it is believed, than
any that has been confded to an Amer
lean naval officer in recent years. Agents
OF the government of Great Britain have
taken possession, unduly and forcibly,
Of the port of Barima, at the mouth of
the Orinoco, which up to that time had
bOSA pooSCooCo Dy NCicLucld, Wucoc
title to it was indisputable. 1t is only
necessary to cast a glance at the map Of
South America in order to see the vast
Importance of this aggressive step of
Great Britain. When European mari
time power has once obtained foethold
at Barima it absolutely controls the Or
inOco river and its numerous affluents.
Through that artery it may penetrate as
far as the Rio de La Plata Venezuela
is therefore not the only American re-
public that is at the mercy of the naval
power that gets control of the Orinoco
river. Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil,
the Argentine Republic and Uruguay
are likewise at its mercy. Much inter
est is felt in President Harrison's in
struction to Admiral Walker. 1t is be-
lieved they will be found to be in his
usual vigorous and firm tone, which has
more than once in the past brought
prompt recognition from Great Britain
and other foreign powers.

Especial Corrcspondence.l
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-This is great
week in Washington. The old soldiers
are here in full force. Never since they
marched up Pennsylvania avenue at the
close Of the war has Washington seen SO
many of the veterans who saved the
country. And there is no less enthusiasm
for the flag and the country among the
thousands who tread Pennsylvania ave-
nue. today than there was quarter Of a
century ago behind the battle stained
banners.
Changed Conditions.
But what change they find
Instead of treasury burdened with a
debt of 81, ,75O, ,OOO,O they find the treas
ury now with interest bearing debt of
less than $500, 100000.
Instead of an annual interest charge
Of $3.50, 0,OO0,0 600, which the government
was compelled to pay at that time, they
find now treasury whose annual inter
est payment is in round numbers but
$50 ,000, 900.
Instead Of government SO reduced as
to be compelled to pay more than per
cent. on the money which it, borrowed to
carry on its war for the preservation of
the nation they find one able to float it's
bonds at par at per cent. per annum
interest.
Instead of debt of seventy-eight dol
lars for each individual in the United
States they find an Indebtedness of thir-
teen dollars for each individual, and in
stead of per capita interest rate of
$4.29 they now find an interest rate of
thirty-tive cents per capita.
Reduced Taxes; Increased Commerce.
All this they find interesting.
They find instead of a country COM
PEELED to raise $519,00O,00O by tax
alton in a year one which now taxes it's
people less than $400,00O,O0O year,
although her population has nearly
doubled meantime and the expenses of
government naturally increased.
They find a country with foreign COM
merce of nearly $4,000, 900, 900 against a
total of less than $500, ,00O, 900 in 1865.
They find instead of y balance of trade
against the United States of SIS, 200, 900,
as was the case in 1865, that the balance
Of trade in our favor now is more than
800 100000
They find instead of domestic exports
amounting to 1886, 600, 900 then that our
exports during the past year were more
than 81, 900, 100000
A Magnificent Pension System.
And this is not all.
They find magnificent pension office
with thousands of clerks employed in
examining into and paying the claims
for pension of the men who fought to
save the country.
instead of a pension roll of $4,000 men
and widows which they found in 1865.
they find to-day pension rou of 750, 900
soldiers and soldiers widows
Instead of an annual payment of S.
500, 900 for pensions which they found in
1865, they find the government paying
$3.50, ,0O0, 900 a year for pensions, and that
it has paid to them and their fellow
soldiers or their families 81, $50, 900 900
in pensions since they marched up Penn
sylvania avenue at the close Of the war
quarter of a century ago.

One Painful Thought.

One thing more they find, and it
brings sorrow and pain to every heart.
1t is that in the record of all this pros
perity, in the record of the nations gen.
erosity toward its defenders and their
families, the one man who has lifted his
hand against the soldier in the quarter
of a century which has passed since they
were last here did so from the presidents s
chair in the White House, and did so
as the only representative of the Demo-
cratic party who has filled that exalted
station since the war.
It is painful thought to these old
soldiers as they gather here that the only
representative which the Democratic
party have had in the White House since
the country was reunited a quarter of a
century ago should have been the only
man to raise his hand against them, and
to strike down with the official power
placed temporarily in his hands the evil
dences of affection which the congress Of
a grateful nation had voted them.
That the one Democratic president who
has occupied the White House since they
marched up Pennsylvania avenue twen-
ty-five years ago should have welded
the veto power against them hundreds
of times in short four years term and
deprived 10000 soldiers homes and
families of the pittance which the con-
gress of a grateful nation had freely
voted them throws a shadow, even at
that long distance, over this gathering
of comrades.
A Silver Lining to the Cloud.
But there is silver lining to this
cloud.
The man who occupies the White
House today they look upon as friend
and a comrade. And they have reason
