New York is the great doubtful state
If the east, and Indiana the great doubt
full state of the west. Knowing the
weakness Of Cleveland in New York,
the plan Of his managers was 10 take the
vice presidential candidate from In
diana. The tactics were good and the
bargain was well understood. Indiana
dropped Gray as presidential candi-
date to secure the second place. But,
through the determination Of the dissat-
isfied 10 make kick at some point, the
scheme miscarried, and the result is
that the ticket is made up OF the weak
est candidate for the chief battle-ground
Of the east. and OF no candidate at all
for the chief battle-ground Of the west.

THE Boston Globe thinks 10000 copies
of the Force" bill too few to print,
and says there ought to be copy in the
hands of every voter. In the same edi-
torial breath it proclaims that this isn't
a good year for trying to revive the free
trade campaign bogey." The Elections bill
of the last Congress is dead and buried;
the free trade plank is almost the only
vital thing in the Chicago platform. The
Globe is almost as queer as the Mug
wuinp Herald.

HARRITY AND QUINCY.

II seems to be pretty well understood
that ex-Postmaster Harrity of Phila-
delphia, now Secretary of the State of
Pennsylvania, will be the Chairman of
the Democratic National Committee and
that Josiah Quincy of Massachusetts
will be at the head of the Campaign or
Executive Committee.
There is little to be said about these
appointments IL they are made except
that both will be extremely distasteful
to the minority of the Democratic party
the Protectionist or Randall Demo
Gratis of the North--upon whom the
party is absolutely dependent for sue
cess.
Both are 'rainbow chasers." Both
are of the mind and temper to pitch the
campaign in the free trade key from the
very first day. Both are experienced
politicians, In way. Quincy is il
boose.
The. appointments, if made, will be
satisfactory to Republicans.

WAGES Ar BoMrsrrAD.

When Mr.. Boatner. the Democratic
Louisiana lawyer, had finished catcchisips q
Mr.. Frick "a tn the employment ana arm
ing OF the detectives, he returned TO the
wage question, and drew out the fact that
wages were paid fortnishtiy NJ Home
stead. and that she payroll was about
$50. 900. The average wages made by the
great majority Of the workers, skilled and
unskilled. was nearly % day. They had
averaged ~ high as 0s5 . month. Several
thousand employees Of the company earned
over 800 - month.
MIR. Boatner DOCKING over the table Of
wages)-Are these amounts paid the men
for their individual labor? Answer by
Manager Frick- Certainly, sir.
Mr.. Boatner- Well, those are the highest
wages I ever heard of-PREss REPORT OF

THE Saturday Reriew's characterize
tion of Gladstone's party as "a thing of
shreds and patches" has too much pain
full truth in 1t for the comfort of the
grand old man who is fighting his last
fight with "two Irish parties as aids
which have been trying to exterminate
each other at the polls, and which would
gladly exterminate each other on the
pavement; and labor party which is at
daggers drawn with every other party
and with Mr.. Gladstone himself" But
what gallant fight il is. barren of re-
suits though it easily may prove.

In HIS announcement of the establish
ment of full co-education at Tufts col
lege President Capen refers to the ex-
ample of Brown, where, he says,
women receive g instruction with
the tacit understanding that they
will be given degrees" President
Capen is mistaken; there is no under
standing at Brown, tacit or explicit,
that women are to be given to degrees /;
there is an arrangement that degrees are
to be given to women. The NEWS is
sorry to see Tufts aiding Dartmouth in
the degradation of the English language.
That two college presidents within a
month should be guilty of such slovenly
utterance is pitiful commentary on
the "higher education" Or did the
reporter misquote Mr.. Capen? We

ALDRICH ON THE M.KINLEY Law

ALDhlCH ON The M'kINLEf LAW
1t is understood that early next week
the report Of the subcommittee of the
finance committee of the Senate upon
the effect of the Mckinley law upon
wages will be presented, and that the
occasion will be made notable by an ex-
haustive speech from Senator Aldrich,
demonstrating the beneficial results of
the tariff to the great masses Of the
American people.
The investigation whose conclusions
are thus to be presented has been in pro-
gress for year and Senator Aldrich, as
chairman of the subcommittee, has in
his possession a mass of valuable testi-
mony from manufacturers. importers
and laborers in a great variety of in
dustries as gathered by the committee
in the different cities it has visited. The
report will thus be the arsenal from
which Republicans will draw their
weapons in the campaign, and the speech
which is to accompany it is expected
to make the issue upon which, SO Tar as
the tariff is concerned, the Republican
party will go before the country. Sena-
tor Aldrich does not pose as an orator
but he is the sblest tariff expert in Con-
gress and very keen and clear debater,
so that from many points of view
the presentation of the finance COM
rhittee's report will mark the most i'm
portant day of the Senate session.

THE NEWS pointed out yesterday the
tactical mistake made by the Amalga-
mated Association in permitting the
strike in the Lawrenceville mills, Pitts
burg. The union men in the Beaver
Falls mill will strike on Monday. In
both these mills the strike is an open
violation of contract, the union scale
having been signed, and acts as can
collation. of the agreewent between
the association and the company.
Under the circumstances it is not
to be wondered at that Manager Frick
declares the mills will be opened as nom
union when work is resumed. The
workmen are precipitating needless
fight against the Amalgamated all
along the line. They may win, but it
doesn't look like good generalship.
