A Possible Solution OF One OF the NIysterIe
~ Cctopca


A Possible solution Of One of the Mysteries
Of Science.
The main difference between anthra-
cite and bituminous coal is that the for
mer is devoid Of volatile matter. Here
tofore the theory generally accepted to
account for this differ snce was that pre-
sented half q century ago by Professor
Rodgers whilo conducting the first geo.
hgical survey of Pennsylvania. Observ-
ing that the anthracite beds lay in tho
eastern part of the state in close proxiln-
ity to the Archean axis of elevation, he
surmised that these coal beds had. 80
to speak, been cooked" upon the eIeva-
ton of the Appalachian chaln--that is,
no supposed that the heat and pressure
accompanying the Appalachian eleva-
ton. acting most vigorously near the
axis, had distilled and removed the vola-
tile matter of the coal bed nearest it.
To adjust the theory OF increasing
facts, Professor Lesley added the sup
position that the heat involved in this
theory was brought up by conduction
when the superintendent layers of rock
were extremely thick, which have since
been mainly removed by the erosivo
agencies which have been active over tho
region for millions Of years. The in
adequacy Of these theories has led Pro-
fessor j. j. Stevenson Of the University
Of New York to PROFOUND another and
simpler theory, which was ably defended
by him at the recent meeting of the Geo
logical Society Of America.
He would account for the lack of vola-
til9 matter in anthracite coal by the sim
pie fact that it had been longer exposed
to that kind of decay which takes place
in vegetable matter when immersed in
water, and which consists chiefly in the
loss of the hydrocarbons which consti-
tute the volatile elemeuts in bituminous
coal On this supposition the anthracite
beds are those which were formed ear
lest in the swamps and lagoons of the
carboniferous period and remained long.
est devoid of the covering Of sedimentary
deposits, which subsequently preserved
them from further change. This theory
is confirmed by the fact that there is no
such strict relation of tie anthracite
beds to the Appalachian axis OF eleva-
ton as Professor Rodgers had supposed
and by many other considerations which
Professor Stevenson is about to publish.
This simple cause seems adequate TO ac-
count for all the phenomena and proha-
bly, solves one Of the long standing mys-
teries of geological science.--Independ-

Of the last national democratic
convention was sufficiently ex-
plicit. It's ratification by the peo-
pie was sufficiently emphatic. The
claim set up by those timorous and
treacherous democrats, who have
not yet recovered from the taint
of Randallism, that the Neal plank
in the platform was a scheme to
embarrass the nomination, perhaps
to defeat the election, of Grover
Cleveland, is a falsehood as mean
as it is cowardly. Equally so is
the plea that the plank was adopt
ed through misapprehension, or
precipltately under a midnight
whip and spur. 1t represented
precisely the aspirations Of the
party, which has been thoroughly
advised, the will and temper of
the convention, which knew per-
fectly what It was about. But,
along with some i'll advised omis-
slons and some Objectionable feat

The fact that the extreme pro-
tectionists and the radical free
traders are about equally dissatis-
fed witt the Wilson bill is evil
dence that it is a moderate and
therefore a wise measure. The
democratic party has never favor
ed free trade, nor has it ever pro-
posed a destructive revision of the
tariff. The declaration in the Chi
cago platform, that "the federal
government has no constitutional
power to impose and collect tariff
duties except for the purposes of
revenue only" was thoroughly un-
derstood by the people. 1t was
proposed by a radical element in
the committee which was never
dominant in the party, and was
adopted by the votes of men who
hoped that it would defeat Mr..
Cleveland. The voters of the
country judged Of the democratic
purpose by the utterances Of Mr.
Cleveland, and by the Mills and
Springer bills. The declaration
against the constitutionality Of a
tariff system that has existed al
most as long as the constitution
was accepted by the voters as sim
ply a platitude. Custom inter

ers accepted the promise of re-
form. They ignored the threat of
uprooting. Governor McKinley's

tutionality of protection. The

duction of the tariff to a revenue

The Wilson Tariff Bill.

The new tariff bill is as good,
perhaps, as the frequent reports
from the laboratory of the major
ity gave reason to expect. 1t is
far less radical than the Walker
reform act of 1864, which took the
place Of the highly protective act
of1842. Comparing it with the
latter in some of its leading feat
ures, we find that while it leaves
wool free it leaves duties ranging
from 20 to 45 per cent on manu-
factures of wool, the lowest rate
applying only to cheap carpets
which are in no danger of foreign
competition. The Walker act put
a duty of 30 per cent on unmanu-
factured wool, and only from 20
to 80 per cent on manufactures,
the average being below 25 per
cent. On cotton goods the Wilson
bill puts duties ranging from 20 to
40 per cent; the Walker act from
20 to so per cent. In the case of
iron it is somewhat different, the
Wilson bill placing most rates at
about 25 per cent, though on some
articles they run as high as 35 and
40 per cent, while the Walker tar
if made uniform rate of 80 per
cent But taking the schedules
throughout, the Walker act was
framed more on revenue princi-
pies. For instance, as to revenue,
the Wilson bill leaves sugar on
the free list, while the Walker act
taxed it to 30 per cent.
A comparison of the Wilson bill
with the first Morrill, act of 1861
is interesting. Comparing the
cotton schedules, we find that the
Wilson bill lays from 20 to 35 per
cent on thread and yarn, while the
Morrill, act laid a uniform rate of
80 per cent. On the coarser cot
ton fabrics the rates are about the
same, except on colored goods,
which are taxed a cent yard
more, or fully third more, by the
Wilson bill. On the finer goods
the Wilson bill taxes unbleached
and bIeached less but colored
goods more than the Morrill, act
did. The Wilson act makes wool
free, while the Morrill, bill taxed
all but carpet woods 8 cents per
pound; and yet the rates on wool
en- yarns In the two measures were
about the same, while on bunting
the Wilson rates are 25, 30 and 81
per cent, while the Morrill, rates
were 25 and 30 per cent. Differ
ences IN classification render il
i'm practicable to pursue the COM
parison with entire accuracy at
short notice, but even a cursory
examination is sufficient to satisfy
one that the Wilson bill is not a
radical advance toward free trade
beyond the Morrill, act of 1861.
There are large reductions from
the Mckinley rates, though IN not
few instances there has been
nothing more than a return to the
rates prescribed by the highly
protective act which the Mckinley
law superseded Taken altogeth-
er, the measure may be described
as a bill to reduce prohibitory du-
ties and to provide somewhat less
protection, with considerable OPP
portunity in certain cases to test
tho working Of free trade. The
tariff proposed does not at all re-
semble in its entirety a tariff for
revenue ouly.-Chicago Herald.
