TAXED SUGAR AND FREE WOOL.

It is interesting, if not instructive, to
note the suggestions of the Democratic
and Cleveland newspapers as to what
shall be done regarding the tariff. 1t is
generally agreed among them in the
East that wool must be put on the free
list. That will lose the treasury a con-
siderable item of revenue, but it must
be done. In Indiana, by the census of
1890, there are 1878. 600 sheep, affording
clip of 6,390,000 pounds. Because of
the tariff, the same grades of wool are II
cents q pound higher hero than in
Canada or Liverpool. Free wool will
put the Indiana price on level with
that of the rest of the world, and by so
doing the wool-growers of this State
will be deprived of S702.9OO On the
other hand, there is already a very gen.
eral admission that when wool is put
upon the free list the duty on raw sugar
must be restored. The Memphis APP
peal-Avalanche declares that 1--WE need
a tariff for the most part on those
articles which we are compelled to
import and which we cannot make
in this country" The financial writer
of the New York Sun sees that at
least one article now free must have "a
duty in order to raise the revenue sac
riiced by sbolishing the duty on wool
and other things. and selects sugar as
that article. In his opinion ga return to
the old sugar duty and the abolition
of the sugar bounty constitute the
readiest means of raising the additional
amount of revenue demanded by the
necessities of the moment" Any further
deficit he would remedy by placing a
duty on coffee and tea. Indiana is con-
Stunning over billion pounds of sugar
annually. and restoration of the sugar
duty would require its people to pay
more than 1900, 900 more for their sugar
than they now pay. This would not be
necessary If it had not been resolved to
put wool and tin-plates upon the free
list. To reduce the price of American
wool more than one-third and destroy
the tin-plate industry, it seems to be the
Democratic policy to put high duty on
sugar. Such, at least. is the advice of
the Democratic press.

A WASTE OF LABOR.

Mr.. Adlai Stevenson, remembering the
favor with which his slaughter of forty
thousand Republican postmasters was
received in Democratic circles when he
was First Assistant Postmaster general,
is evidently anticipating the achieve
ment of further party glory by q repeti-
ton of his former course. He is said to
be preparing for a visit East in a week
or two. for the purpose of consulting
with Mr.. Cleveland in regard to the dis
tribution of spoils. and, in order to ex-
pedite matters, will take along a
list of the names of loyal Demo-
cratic "boys" who. in his opinion, should
receive their reward. Mr.. Stevenson
seems to forget the unhappy experience
of the late Mr.. Hendricks, of Indiana,
and to be under the impression that, as
Vice. president, he will be able to WELD
at least as much power as when he was
the official regulator of fourth
postoffices. Mr.. Hendricks cherished
the belief that he would have some in
fiuence with the Cleveland administra-
ton, but, as Democrats in Indiana we'll
remember, he was able to control the
appointment of the postmaster in his
own city only by the most undignifed
and abject entreaty of the mogul in the
White House. Having secured that ap-
pointment he could do no more. Prom
Uses he had made to friends and work
ers in his own State could not be carried
out because his recommend ations car
ried no weight with President Cleve-
land. On the contrary. that parsonage
took an apparent delight in going
contrary to the lce-president's wishes.
He was willing, and even anxious, to
divide the spoils, but he wished to do it
in his own way. and this way, it will be
remembered, was so offensive to the
Democratic managers of Indiana that
they refused to rally around him in 1883,
| and were far from inconsolable when he
| lost the State. Instead of feeling CRATE
| full to Mr.. Hendricks for the strength he
| had added to the ticket, he was jealous
| of his popularity, and manifested this
feeling by ignoring and insulting him.
Adlai Stevenson is n very different per-
son from Mr.. Hendricks. 1t was rot his
! influence that carried Illinois. Hewould
not have been put on the ticket if the
Democrats at Chicago had really hoped
to elect it. He was simply political
nonentity. and was chosen for
his negative qualities. Mr.. Cleve-
land is not in the least jealous
of Adiai. in spite of his superior record
as rebel sympathizer and consequent
popularity in the South. but there is not
the smallest reason for supposing that

A CURIOUS story comes from San
Francisco to the effect that Justice
Field, of the Supreme Court, contem-
plates resigning before Mr.. Cleveland
comes into office. so as to give the ap-
pointment of his successor to President
Harrison. His alleged motive is said to
be partly animosity towards Cleveland
and partly his fear that, should he die
during the next four years, Cleveland
would appoint Judge Wallace, of San
Francisco. his successor, who has been
Fields bitter enemy for thirty years.
Field is good hater, and it is said he
would rather see a Republican on the
bench than Judge Wallace; besides. he
hates Cleveland, and does not want him
TO appoint his, Field's, successor. This
is not the first time that high-up federal
judges have shown themselves to be
possessed of very human passions.

The truth is that it was in the manufact-
uring cities that the assertions from the
Republican to the Democratic party were
most numerous. and it was there that the
party of protection met It's defeat. The
deserters were workingmen-the best paid,
best fed, best clothed workingmen in the
world.
They were induced to desert the party
which had conferred all these blessings
upon them, with others which enabled
them to educate their children and TO sur
round their families with comforts and
luxuries utterly unknown to the working
men of other countries, by the lying asser-
ton iterated and reiterated by Democratic
orators aud press. that the protective tariff.
which had secured them all these good
things, was an unjust and unrigbteous
system which only made the rich richer
and the poor poorer.
The appeal OF the Democratic party was
to that low impulse of envy and malice
which constrains the man who will not
practice those virtues which lead to suc-
cess TO hate those who do and who in SO
doing rise from the grade of employee to
that of employer.
