How does it happen that the Scotch al-
Wales try conclusions with each other9 When
the Welsh bards had q contest with their
Scotch rivals. Scstland was forced to shed
tears OF pity over poor Wales. When q ram
pant Welhhman went to Scotland In search of
a Toe. he fled at the sight OF him In kits. We
now have news OF the International football
match between Scotland and Wales at Wrex-
ham. the old Welsh town to which tho Scotch
men went to lay out the Welshmen. The
Scotch players won all along the line scoring
eight goals without once letting In their Welsh
rivals. who were outclassed In mortifying
way. In other years there havs been seven-
teen great football matches between Scotland
and Wales: the Scotch have won sixteen OF
the matches: the Welsh never won any OF

Welsh are OF Celtic origin and so are the
Scotch Highlanders The Welsh play the bag

rhax WIN Vote To-dayi

There is an especial interest in the munic-
ipal elections that are to be held to-day all
over Kansas, and In every city there. by
reason OF the fact. that. for the first time In
the history OF any State Of the Union, avery
largo proportion OF the women OF the State
will appear at the polls and cast
their ballots for the candidates whom
they have helped to nominate. At
Ill events. they have registered 30 as to
be qualified to participate In the elections.
We have the registration reports OF eight OF
the cities OF Kansas, and upon then, there
arc the names OF 1888 women entitled to
vote. Assuming that the ratio Of feminine
voters in tho other cities VI the State Is
about the Same ns In these eight cities.
Il would seem that the mothers. wives.
and daughters OF the men Of Kansas mean
20 do their duty at tho polls to-day. The
Kansas papers described the scenes at the
registration Offices when the women rallied
around them ten days ago. There were
women rich and poor. black and white. and
It Topeka the crush was SO great that sev-
ersl "sweli society women" failed to get
their certificates in time. Order was pre-
served everywhere, though good many
women got mad when they were asked to
tsll their ages. "
The Populiss papers pretend to have
knowledge that great majority OF the
women will vote for the Populist candi-
dates. We shall not believe this unless 1t is
proved by the returns Of the elections. Ger
tainly. great many OF the women Of Kan
sas. are solid Democrats. while Others are
iust as solid Republicans. A Wichita paper
ssys that the old maids there are Populists.
the wives Democrats. and the widows
Republicans. II this be true. tho Demo-
Gratis ought to carry Wichita. Several
women are candidates for Office. We are
prepared to hear Of the election Of the
brave woman who Is running for Mayor Of
Kansas City.
The women OF Kansas have had the right
TO vote In municipal elections for several
years: but this year is the first in which
they have shown any great anxiety to exer-
eise the right.
We shall carefully observe the returns as
they come to hand.

Encouragement for Honest Democrats.
Such appointments as those OF WILLIAM
T., CURTIS OF New York and CHARLES s.
HAMI1N of Boston to be Assistant Secre-
tafies Of the Treasury should be regarded
as bart OF a systematic plan.
Both OF these young gentlemen are tariff
reformers OF the advanced type. very ear
nest in their conviction that the overthrow
OF protectionism is the supreme issue and
the most urgent duty Of the epoch. They
have devoted . great deal Of time to the
serious Investigation Of the tariff question.
Mr.. CURTIS has been prominent and active
In the Reform Club Of New York, while Mr..
HAMLN has been equally prominent and
active In the Massachusetts Tariff Reform
League. They are good examples Of that
body OF young men in Democratic politics
who did 80 much to bring about the renomi
nation Of Mr.. CLEVELAND. and to put the
tariff at the front with Mr.. CLEVELAND as
Che leader OF the assault on protection.
4 The fact that the President Is calling such
young men In considerable numbers to his
Administration is one Of the most interest
Ing and significant Indications Of his pur-
pose to redeem the pledges of the Chicago
platform. Believing. as he evidently does.
th tthe country will hold the Executive as
well as the Congress to rigid account for
whatever legislation there may be on the
tariff. and that the initiative in this respect
IL rather with the Treasury than with Con-
gress. 1t is perfectly natural and reasonable
that his secondary appointments under
Eecretary CARLISLE should be shaped with
. steady view to the overthrow Of protec-
tion and the enactment Of sincere and
thoroughgoing tariff for revenue only.
This matter is vastly more important to
the future OF the Democracy than any
question as to which faction shall get the
spoils. As Congressman WARNER. himself

marked on Saturday: If we permit our

Our spunky contemporary. the Ne,o York
Age. which calls itself an "Afro-American "
paper. and is OF Republican politics. prints a
lot Of evidence that the Democratic President
favors colored people more than his Republi-
can predecessor favored them. Itgives prom
inence to this interesting fact:
"In CLrvrIAsp's nrst Administration. from 1885 to
1855. the servants in the White House wero mostly
Afro-Americans. whom President HARaisoS promptly
replaced with white servants whom President CLxvE-
LAND has again replaced with AfroAmericana."
Good for President CLEVELAND How could
HARRIsoN turn out the old colored coachman
HAWKINS. or the bald-hesded. ever-smiine q
doorkeeper SIMMONS, who knows every poll
tician In the country. or the other Afro Amer
leans who had enjoyed snug places in the

istration2 His conduct was mean. even for q
Hoosier. Now. as We learn from the Age. they
are all returning to their old roost. like chick
ems. at CLEvELAND's call" Again. good!
The Age presents many other facts In proof
OF its allegation that Mr.. CLEVELAND has AL
ways favored our Afro-American citizens:
and 1t believes that, as he gave some OF them
desirable Offices during his first term. he will
do the same thing during his second term.
