After hard struggle tariff reform Is d.
rectly before us. Nothing so important claims
our attention, and nothing so clearly presents
itself as both an opportunity and a duty-an
opportunity to deserve the gratitude of our
fellow citizens, and q duty imposed upon US
by our oft-repeated professions and by the
emphatic mandate of the people. After full
discussion our countrymen have spoken in
favor Of this reform, and they have confided
the work of its accomplishment 70 the hands
of those who are solemnly pledged 70 1t.
Manifestly, II we are TO aid the PEG pie di-
rectly through tariff reform, one Of its most
obvious features should be reduction in
present tariff charges upon the necessaries OF
life. The BENEFITS of such red action would
b palpable and substantial, seen and felt By
thousands who would be betier fed and better
clothed and better sheltered. These gifts
should be the ling benefactions Of gov
eminent whose highest function is the pro-
motion Of the welfare of the people.
Not less closely related TO our peoples pros
pority and well-being is the removal OF re-
strictions upon the importation OF tho raw
materials necessary TO our manufactures.
The world should be open to our national
ingenuity and enterprise.

The report Of the secretary Of the navy con-
tains a history of the operations of his de-
partment during the past year, and exhibits
most gratifying condition Of the personnel OF
our navy. He presents a satisfactory account
of the progress which has been made in the
construction of vessels, and makes number
of recommendations TO which attention is es-
pecially invited.
During the past six months the demands for
cruising vessels have been many and urgent
There have been revolutions calling for yes
sells TO protect American interests in Near
aqua, Guatemala, Costa RIGA, Honduras, Ar
Rentine and Brazil, while the condition OF
affairs in Honolulu has required the con-
slant presence of one or more ships. With all
these calls upon our navy, it became neces-
sary, in order to make up = sufficient fleet TO
patrol the behring sea under the modus
yivendi agreed upon with Great Britain, to de-
tail to that service one vessel from the fish
commission and three from the revenue ma
rine.
Progress in the construction Of new vessels
has not been as rapid as was anticipated.
There have been delays In the completion of
unarmored vessels, but for the most part they
have been such as as constantly occurring
even In countries having the largest ex-
perience in naval shipbuilding. The most
serious delays, however, have been In the
work urOn armored ships The trouble has

JUDGE LOCHREN.

President Cleveland has made a
number of mistakes in the various ap-
pointments already made, but it can
not be said, even by his staunchest
political opponents, that he made an
error when he appointed Judge Will
liam Lochren, of Minneapolis, pension
commissioner to succeed Green B.
Raum, a pension commissioner failure,
If there ever was one. Judge Lochren
is eninently qualified for the position,
and has remarkably keen, as we'll as
quick perception into all matters
that come before him. Himself an
old soldier, with tender feeling for
the men who fought by his side, he,
as pension commissioner, will have an
opportunity to dispel the fear, in a
great measure, which the old soldiers,
now in the last years of life, have of
the Cleveland administration. Let
not party strife blind the merits of
this appointment. Members Of all po-
iitical parties in Minnesota can con-
graduate the President on his selec-
ton, and congratulate themselves ov-
or the fact that this position of high
honor and trust was given to Min
nesota citizen-to a man who fought
under the flag of that regiment which
was the first to tender it's services to
President Lincoln-the First Min
neSOta.
