Tho President and tho Vice-President
to TamInany.

The Hon. GROVER CLEvELAND'S Fourth OF
July message to Tammany Hall conveys
general principles rather than personal
greetings. It's full OF such graceful wisdom
and unimpugnable truths as this: This Is
n day which all true Americans ought to
celebrate with enthusiasm: and this The
labor and vigilance OF those intrusted with
eelf-government must be unremitting and
always patriotic"
Tho Hon. ApLAI Z. STEvENsoN's Fourth
of July message to Tammany Hall is
more in the nature Of q frank recognition
Of indebtedness to that organization. II
cannot express my heartfelt gratitude"
writes the vice-President to Mr.. CROKER,
"to the grand historic order over which
you preside. Your letter but adds to my
deep obligation"
A noteworthy and beautiful thing about
these two testimonials to the greatness
and loyalty Of Tammany. rendered yester-
day by the two highest officers of the Fed
ernl Government. is that their respective
ideas are interchangeable. That Is to say.
the President might have written the Vice.
Presidents letter. The vice-President might
have written the Presidents letter.
II Mr.. STEVENSON. instead Of Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND. had written: There never has been
o time when our countrymen should be
more soberly reminded that they cannot
safely delegate their duties and obligations
OF citizenship. or neglect to cultivate an in
dividual and personal interest in public
AFFAIRS" the sentiment would have been
not less true and valuable
II Mr.. CLEVELAND. instead Of Mr.. STEVEN
son, had written to Mr.. CROKER: cannot
express my heartfelt gratitude to the grand
historic order over which you preside" the
sentiment would not have been any less
true or appropriate.

The Register of the Treasury.

Mr.. JAMES F. TILLMAN Of Tennessee. the
new Register OF the Treasury. is not well
known to the Northern public. at least. but
he Ia described by an esteemed Virginia
contemporary as "a gentleman of much
ability. fine social qualities. and handsome
personal appearance, who has been prom
inently identified with tho National
Farmers Alliance" 1t seems that Reg
lister TILLMAN Is manager and an
owner OF the National Economist. the
national organ OF the National Farm
ers' Alliance and Industrial Union. His
name, therefore. must be added to Mr..
CLEvELAND's long bead-roll of decorated
editors. Mr.. TnLMAN's journal is pub
lished in Washington. and so he will not be
divided from his first love, as are those edi-
tors who have gone where glory waits
them as Ministers or Consuls across the
wine-dark sea. Mr.. TILLMAN can continue
his labors in disseminating Alliance politi-
ca! economy, II he chooses. The duties OF
his new post are not excessively arduous.
Mr.. TILLMAN's appointment TO an Office
more desirable than many others. which in
volve greater labor and responsibility, is
made in reward for the services which very

lance rendered to the Democratic party

emphasis with which he had expressed GER

which the Alliance believed. being tho main
cause OF dissatisfaction. The Populist

A bill making such transfer passed the
last Legislature. but it was very properly
vetoed by Governor FLOWER. The people
OF the State cannot be justly taxed for any
such purpose. They might as reasonably
be taxed for the support OF the West Point

WASHINGTON. July 4.-There Is no reason for
doubling that the silver men will fight their
battle In Congress from the start by using all
the means in their power to win. They will
yield nothing at any time. They will even re-
sort to fllibustering tactics and yield not an
inch they can hold. This is their programme.
1t is probable they are the most active men of
any party preparing for the battle OF the extra
session. They are encouraged in the East by
words that come from the West The de-
spatches from the mining States are OF no
uncertain tone. 1t has been said that tho sill
YER men would consent to suspend the opera
ton OF the Sherman law. They will do moth
ing OF the kind. but will cling to all they have
and are preparing to assume the aggressive.

dent they can prevent kilograms and letters
from silver men In many places warrant the
statement that such will be the tactics en-
ployed from the start especially In the House.

The monopoly OF tho liquor business
which has been assumed by South Carolina
is an experiment in State socialism. and
therefore it will be generally useful as an
object lesson. That, State is making be-
ginning in the way of carrying out the
Farmers Alliance theory.
theoretically the State will pay large
part of its expenses out OF profits which
formerly were rcaped by private enter
prise. 1t charges fifty per cent. profit on
the liquor sold to the county dispensaries.
as its share Of the gein. Then the dispen-
saries are required to sell the liquor at fifty
per cent. additional profit, that gain to be
divided between the town and the county.
Moreover. as the State has mo-
nopoly Of the traffic. it will not be
subject to tho competition which un-
der the laws Of trade tends to the reduc-
ton OF prices. 1t can charge one hundred
per cent. profit right along. and rake in the
proceeds. AS the demand increases. its gain
will increase proportionately. for 1t will fur
nish the whole supply. To figure up his
profits at starting, Governor T1LLMAN had
only to estimate the cost OF the liquor con-
sumed In the State and add as much more.
That was the assumption: but the actual
working OF the State liquor traffic as
means OF public revenue has been disap-
pointing to its advocates. thus far. Human
nature has stood in the way. OF course the
private liquor dealers who were to be driven
out of business, took pains to get rid OF their
stocks before the law went into operation:
and the forced sales which were the con-
sequence sent down the prices to consumers.
so that the people were tempted toimprove
the opportunity by laying in large quanti-
ties Of alcoholic beverages
Hence the States liquor shops begin
business with the demand largely supplied
for several months to come. At present the
liquor investment is not paying. Mr..
TILLMAN's estimate OF profits has not yet
been justified by experience. So far the
monopoly has not proved valuable; and the
preliminary circumvention OF it gives
warning OF continued attempts to de-
feat it by taking advantage Of prices
regulated by the laws of trade instead OF
paying prices arbitrarily fixed by the law
of the State. Apparently it will be a costly
business to force the people Of a whole
State to give up their practice Of buying
where they can get an article cheapest,
and to change totally their social habits at
the same time.
1t is well. however. that the experiment
is to be made so that everybody may see
the actual working Of the socialistic the
DRY. That theory is that the State should
have the monopoly Of all business; and no
better test of it could be made than by mo-
nopolizing the liquor traffic, as South Caro-
lima has done. 1t is a very profitable bust
ness as conducted by private enterprise.
Now let us see how 1t turns out as con-
Quoted by the State: and then we shall have
basis Of fact on which to estimate the
value Of the theory generally.

Senator Chambers Three Mistakes.

One merit Of the Hon. WILLIAM E. CHAND-
LER's contributions to political literature Is
that they say something. Senator CHAND-
LER has distinct ideas and talks at the tar
get. whether he hits IL or not.
Now Senator CHANDLER says, in a letter
to the Nep York Tribune. that the present
commercial and financial troubles are not
due to the Silver law OF 1890. but directly
and solely to the prospect Of the overthrow
of protection by the Democratic party:
"tisa folly and absurdity to Ascribe tho present.
suffering In circles to the Silver law Of
the slightest effect in removing the tronbes which are
even now upon the country. and will continue to null
tipiy a. tho months roll on.
"The distrust and misapprehension which. indeed.
truly have already caused great loss and damage
our people. and threaten to cripple merchants.
stop the wheels OF manufacture bring distress and pri
walton to farmers and withhold from our working.

Straightforward as his diagnosis:

In the first place. Mr. CHANDLER Is en-
tirely mistaken in supposing that the root
OF the evil Is exclusively in the popu-
lar apprehension that protection Is to be
destroyed. In that case. panic would have
manifested itself as soon as the result OF
November's election waa known.
In the second place. Mr.. CHANDLER has a
low opinion OF the courage and good faith
