NEW TARIFF LEGISLATION.
The Crooked Course Of the Democratic
Ways and Means Committee.

The Crooked Course OF the Democratic
Ways and Means Committee.
Under the constitution, all tariff leg
islat;on must originate in the house OF
representatives, and within the house
the duty Of originating such legislation
is assigned to the ways and means COM
mittee.
This committee, Of which William L..
Wilson is chairman, is composed OF
these seventeen congressman: Wilson,
West Virginia, chairman; McMiilin,
Tennessee; Turner, Georgia; Mont
gomery, Kentucky: Whiting, Michi-
gan; Cochran, New York; Stevens,
Massachusetts,; Bryan, Nebraska;
Breckenridge, Arkansas; Bynum, lndl-
ana; Tarsney, Missouri; Reed, Maine;
Burrows, Michigan; Payne, New York;
Dalzell, Pennsylvania; Hopkins, Hi
nois; Gear, Iowa Eleven are demo
Gratis and six are republicans. OF the
democrats, four Messrs- Wilson. Tur-
ner, McMillin and Bynum), served on
the ways and means committee OF the
democratic Fiftieth house, which in
1883 framed the Mills bill.
In view of this latter consideration,
it is not surprising that the committee
announced that only twenty days time,
Sundays included, should be allowed
for hearings on proposed tariff
changes In such limited period it
would, of course, be impossible to
examine into the condition even
of the leading industries of the
country; the measure OF protection
which they receive; the tariff duties to
which they are entitled. The hearings
will be in the nature of a farce and in
large measure will be monopolized by
foreign producers and manufacturers.
Inasmuch as the foreigners contributed
their moral-if not ubstantial--sup-
port to the cause of multiplication
during the last campaign, it is perhaps
ONLY fair that the democratic leaders
should afford them full and courteous
hearing. American producers and man.
ufacturers giving employment to home
labor will hardly complain. for they ex-
pect no mercy from a party that is
pledged to revise our tariff in the d.
rection of the revenue only pattern pro-
vided by the English. 1t is decidedly
doubtful whether to any considerable
extent they will put themselves to the
inconvenience and expense OF being
represented before the committee.
However, it is to be said in favor OF
Mr.. Wilson and his democratic asso-
ciates or the ways and means commit
tee that they are at least going through
the form of public hearing on the
tariff question, while in 1883 they
framed the Mills bill in star chamber
and by the light of dark lantern.
Nevertheless, their course is in sharp
contrast with that of William McKin-
lev, Jr., and his associates on the ways
and means committee of the Fifty-frst
congress, who examined carefully and
in detail into every industry affected
by tariff duties, and who secured full
and accurate Information on which to
base theil legislation.
The free traders have their theories;
they have no use for facts and condi-
tions.-Albany Journal

A POLITICAL MOVE.

Tax Commissioner Cartilage Talks Of tho
Recent Action of the Railroad Assess
Ors. ~
Mr. E. T. Cartilage, tax commissioner
of the Santa Fe. in talking of the in
crease made in the assessment of the
Santa Fe's property by the railroad as
SCISSORS, said: I'VE expected an in
crease, but We're rather surprised to
find it so large. If the assessment as
1t is at present stands, it will increase
our taxes in Kansas from 800, 900 to
over 5000, ZOO, or about 80 per cent.
when we fled our figures with the
assessors l asked for a decrease from
last year of one-third, and fled papers
to show that our figures gave the true
value of the road. had sent to sixty
county clerks in the state and got from
them a statement showing the assessed
valuation of the personal property in
their counties, and also list of the
transfers during the year and the con-
siderations therefor, and the assessed
value of the real estate transferred
From these figures l compiled a table
which proved that the assessment we
When this table was given to the as
SCISSORS they replied that they did not
need proof-they knew how to value
railroads themselves.
Politics is the cause of the raise, of
course. When l was out on my first
trip with the assessors, Gov. Lewelling
told me that the value must be raised
in Kansas: that that was one of the
things that was expected of his party.
Other officers said the same thing, and
the auditor stated that his predecessor,
Mr.. Hovey. and Attorney Ives,
of the populist party. were turned down
for reducing the assessment OF the rail-
roads. and that under the circum-
stances the assessment must be in
creased.
81 believe the railroad assessment this
year will reach sos. 600, 900. The assess
ors tell me that they have increased
all roads alike. and if this is so, it will
be nearly 100000. The Kansas City
papers made mistake in saying that
the assessment in 1891 was reduced
from So, 200 to S5l,OOO,000. The
Capital, l believe, was the only paper
that gave the correct figures. which
show the reduction to be from So, O00,-
900 to s51, 100000. This is little mat
ter. but we do not want credit for a
twenty million reduction when we
didn't get it. Topeka Capital.

Sack-Cloth and Ashes Altogether too Good

A prominent Douglas county repub-
lican was in Topeka recently doing
pension business for those of his friends

He said that before leaving home he
met an old republican soldier who had
wandered away into the jungles of
demo-populism and had voted directly
for W. A. Harris and Indirectly for Grover
Cleveland. The informant said the old
soldier came to him voluntarily and
stated his abject repentance for the
foolishness in which he had INDUCED.
He said: 81 am as repentant as the
prodigal son for having been jackass
enough to vote against my own record
and my own convictions adhered to
for a pretty long life time. 1 am not
repenting in sack-cloth and ashes, be-
cause sack-cloth and ashes are too all
fired good for me. l am repenting in
plain rags and ordinary dust. l pro-
pose if necessary to pawn my cows in
the next campaign to see to it that the
people who have advertised Kansas as
a great national poor farm are driven
back into the awful obscurity from
which they have accidentally escaped
by such fool votes as my own. l am a

tised our farms as being covered with

the repentant voters are as frank as
this one but this one has a power OF
good company.

OF more than thirty thousand Jews
now living in Amsterdam it is estimated
that at least twelve thousand are

the trade of diamond cutting.

DEMOCRATIC DAYS AGAIN.

The democratic days have come,
The saddest Of the age,
When countless spindlcs cease hum;
And, written on the page
u history, there seem to he
The dark blue lines Of pain:
The people co rot want TO see
These sad days come again.
The poor mans blanket is as cheap
AZ It was pledged Of old!
And wool from backs Of honest sheep
At bedrock price Is sold
AL things are going cheap a. smoke.
And some grade below,
But does this help q man who's broker
That's what I'd like 10 know.
The dinner pail that sold last year
For twenty cents or less,
Can now be purchased fall OF beer
For bout that price, 1 guess;
Ard even The Mckinley bill
Has lost its power to rob:
The wheels OF industry are still
And no one has job.
Yes, democratic days are here
The days we read about
And every thing is cheap. my dear,
Without single doubt,
The blanket and the stove-pipe hat,
Have had wondrous fall,
But human labor-think Of that
Is cheaper than them all
always thought it would be fun
III might Live to see
The days of Jefcrsonian
And such simplicity;
But when / hear the hungry horie
Cry out, il makes me sick
Ana in my heart cry: 20. Lord,
Don't spread it on too thick.
Cheap food and clothing suit me wher
Ihave the cash for such,
But if have no money, then
1t aggravates me much:
And rs for good Old days" ah-hem-
Ii fairly makes me cough
l think the less we have of them
The better We are of.

Diamond Cutting.

1t was in 1856 that the cutting OF dia-
monds into regular forms first began to
be practiced. The business is now most
extensively carried on in Amsterdam.
although in this country at the present
time are many excellent diamond cut
tiers whose services are highly valued.

WANTED GROVER.

They Have Him and He Ia Truly an Ele-
plant on Their Hands.
The democrats are put in the embar-
RAISING position of having to choose be-
tween the professions laid down in
their last national platform and the
law laid down by the president in his
asst message. There is no doubt that
the party will be able in some way to
make this extraordinary straddle with
out change of countenance. 1t has
never been in any other than a
straddled condition for SO long that it
has come to feel unhappy in any other
condition. But still it is very embar-
RAISING to read in the platform an utter
condemnation of everything the repub-
lican party ever did and then have the
infallible pope of the party from Gray
Gables, call congress together with the
proposition that John Sherman was
right in all he tried to do at the time the
so-called sherman law" was passed.
With the free silver men claiming
that Sherman was right in passing the
compromise bill when he could not
stop free coinage entirely, and with
Cleveland claiming he was right in
trying to stop free coinage entirely,
and the republicans all knowing that
he has been right all the time, it looks
as though John Sherman was getting
substantially q unanimous Endorsement
The mere impulse of human sympathy,
however, makes one sorry for the dem
ocrats when they seem tc get so little
satisfaction ont of what they tried so
hard to get Grover seems to have
given his democratic disciples only one
erumb of comfort, namely, the thinning
