What "RObbery" Costs.

II, as claimed by the Democrats In
the late campaign, the protective
tariff dcfrauds the people OF the
United States OF u, 200, 600, 900 every
year, how can they hesitate to stop
this robbery the very moment they
come into power next March. Ten
hundred millions annually Is $83, O0O,-
600 every month, or about %, 707, 900
day, or about $l12,00O every hour,
day and night, awake or asleep, for
each day in the year. This
enormous robbery Of the people"
amounts to $16 a year for
every man, woman, child and baby
in the United States. OF course,
the alleged robbery" is all bosh,
purely imaginary, scarecrow util-
lied for partisan purposes. The
money raised by customs duties goes
to meet the expenses OF the Federal
government, pay pensions, interest
ON the public debt, and other neces-
sary expenditures for the public vel
fare. The Democratic administra.
tion will have to pay these expend-
itures the same as the Republican ad-
ministration has paid them, and it
will have to raise the bulk OF the
money by tariff on imports. In
deed, their very frs. proposition is TO
restore the tariff on sugar by which
they will rob the pc pie" to use their
own phraseology) Of over $50, 000, 900
year.
But IL it be true, as they claim,
that the protective tariff Is costing
the people eS3, 900, 900 a month or
nearly %, 600, 600 a day, how can they
conscientiously delay any longer than
absolutely necessary to convene the
Fifty-third Congress In extra session
to repeal this great burden upon the
people? II the Democrats are sin.
cere and honest in their professions
they will call an extra session az
soon as possible after President Cleve-
land Is inaugurated and "wipe out
the iniquity" which sdefrauds the
people OF $1,000, ,0oO, 900 annually.
The country will now see whether
the Democrats were sincere and
honest" in their profession and
whether they have the bcasted "cOur-
age Of their convictions.

A MINE SWiNOLER,

Author OF One OF tho Most stupendous
Sw ndiex In Years Eun Down.
ST. LOUIS special: by the arrest Of
William Whalen in this city, some 107
victims of one OF the most stupendous
mining frauds in recent years got hold
OF the author of their plundering. In
1859 Whalen, who purported to be the
owner OF 4 mine called "St Peter" In
the Antelope District, came to the city
and bv che aid OF smooth tongue and
apparently good references. succeeded
In placing among some lO7 persons
nearly $500 shares of stock in lots
ranging from 500 shares downward.
To keep up appearances Whalen paid
out some sos, 900 rs dividends on stock
sold. At length suspicion crept in and
Whalen was arrested, but a compro-
mise was reached ana Whalen left
town. The stock fell fiat, aud of the
holding face value Of 500, 900, the
stockholders had left only the printed
certificates. A day or two ago Whalen
returned to the city. He was immedi-
atcly arrested, and now his victims will
have their inning. 1t is generally un-
derstood that Whalen netted something
like $500, 600 in the deal.

Ordained n reat Mint. a,r,est.

ST. Louis special. A rare and i'm.
pressive ceremony was performed at
Christ Church Cathedral where the
Rev. James II. Cloud, local deaf mute,
was ordained minister of the gospel
ty Bishop Daniel 5. Tuttle Of the Epis.
copal Church. The services were un.
usually interesting to the congreg ation
at large. bat especially so to THO hundred
or more deaf mutes who came to wit
ness the elevation OF their confrere to
the priesthood. To them the services
were made Ineligible by Rev. A. w.
Mann, who, standing by the bishops
side, Interpreted his ordination sermon
by signs. The prayers that were in
toned were interpreted by him in the
same fashion, and the deaf mutes, sit.
ting in their pews, delivered the re.
sponses in the same significant manner.

How these Democrats agreey The
New York World. In the late lament
able campaign, insisted with much
stridency that Grover Cleveland was
the greatest friend the Onion veteran
pensioner ever had, and sought to
win the soldier vote for him on that
grourd. The Durham (N. c. Globe,
which persistently praised Cleveland
for iis opposition to the crippled
veterans OF the Union, and even for
his contumclious treatment OF them,
