SAME OLD GAIT.
Each Branch of Congress Has a Repeal
Bill Under Consideration,

WASHINGTON, October 2.-While thu
senate is dragging out an existence de-
batting on the silver repeal bill, the
house is perspinng over a bill ITO repes
the statutes relating to supervisors o.
elections and special deputy msrshals
and for other purposes" This bill hal
been under discussion in the house "of
and on" for week, and was first cham
pioned by Mr.. Tucker Of Virginia, snd
opposed by Mr.. Brosius of Pennsylvania
After explaining the bill, Mr.. Tucker
said, In part: "If the power, privileges
and duties Of supervisors and deputy
msrshRls permitted them to perform
acts not prescribed and granted In the
constitution, then the law that created
them was unconstitutional. The states
alone could make conditions Of suffrage.
The repeal Of these laws would wipe out
the statutes that had caused the clash
ing between the federal government
and the states for thirty years. I be-
long to q party that is not sectional.
"You," he added, addressing the repub-
licRns, shave lived on sectionalism. You
have violated the pledge of your fathers,
have ovsrridden the constitution, have
denied the right Of hsbeas corpus, and
in q thousand ways shown yourselves
unworthy of public confidence"
Prolonged democratic applause greeted
the conclusion of Mr.. fuckers speech.
Mr.. BEOsius Of Pennsylvania, then
took the floor. He appealed, he said, to
patriotism, not to psrtisanship. after
the war;" he said, 1--WE had to protect
those whom we had seen. fight Loyalty and
gsllRntly for their freedom act that
passed in 1865, authorizing the army
and navy to maintain peace at the polls.
More drastic than the present laws were
indorsed by some Of the most illustriOus
men who have honored the democratic
party by their services. The democrats
claim the power Of the federal govern
ment could not be used to protect the
ballot, because it was liable to be abused;
that it should not be exercised because
it may incite the states to deeds Of Vio-
lence. Shamel shame You intend that
the political power Of the negro among
the white men shall cease, that the con-
stitutionsl rights to 100000 people
should be destroyed"
On resuming the debate Thursday,
Gen. John G. Black, Of Illinois, ex.com-
missioner Of pensions, took the floor in
support Of the bill. This was his first
speech, and he was accorded perfect ct
tention. He said that be would not con-
slider it from q constitutional standpoint,
but, as q democrat and a citizen, would
try to show his reasons for fsvofinR the
repeal Of this system Of laws. They were
enacted in 1866, and the most that could
be claimed for them was that they were

his respects to the democrats, who held

ing in for their share. "Ths real ground"
continued the speaker Of the opposition,
"is the internal dogma OF states rights,
which teaches the federal government,
is to be despised and hated" With
the IndisnRn charged the
democratic party with being responsible
for the violation Of the sanctity Of the
ballot box, with corrupting the con-
science of the nation and defying the
public will. In turn Mr.. johnson then
charged the democratic party with forg-
ing the Morey letter in 1884; with forg-
ing the returns in Chicago the same
year; the returns in Ohio and Indiana,
and with frauds iDnumersble in New
York and deeds of violence in the south.
"The hour of retrlbutlon will come,"
concluded he; sit will take the party
that has prostituted the power given it
Tor great public purpose, and hurl it
into oblivion"
Mr.. Breckenridge then hurled detiance
at the IndiRnan. "If the gentleman is q
lair type" said he, "of the people of his
district then they cannot be criticised

as infamous the majority Of the people of

"There are other things" shouted Mr..
Johnson, "Which the gentleman from
Kentucky would like TO dismiss" At

preach of promise suit, the republicans
sughed, but the laughter was drowned

"Cobden Club Gold"

Squire Smalley sends from London to
The Tribune an account of the Golden
club which is certain to impair the USE
fulness of that institution as Republic
an bugaboo in future presidential cam
paigns. He says of it: "Its present i'm
portance is academic. A club which has
not vitality enough to dine oftener than
once in four or FIVE years is not likely to
overturn a government, nor to lend
much strength to the administration
which it favors with its support" Nei-
ther is it likely to be able to raise a vast
corruption fund to buy up presidential
election in the United States. What Mr..
Smalley says of it now might have been
said of it with equal truth at any time
during the past ten or dozen years, yet
at every presidential election we have
had in that period the club has been ac-
cused of sending to this country untold
millions of British gold" for the pur-
pose of buying a victory for British
free trade. New York Evening Post.

The beneficiaries of protection and
their attorneys are employing every ar
gument and artifice at their command
to prevent, or at least to postpone, such
revision Of the tariff as the people have
commissioned the Democratic party to
make. This, they tell us, is not the time
for radical changes in the tariff. There
is monetary crisis of considerable Sc
verify, and nothing should be done until
confidence returns and the country is
again in full tide of prosperity.
Ex-Secretary Foster would have con-
gress deliberately resolve not to touch
the tariff at all, and so put the benefi-
ciaries entirely at their ease. Rafael FL.
Wolff in The Forum recommends revi-
sion by commission of business men and
two or three congressman. Perceiving
the futility of Fosters plan for defeating
revision, he suggests the dilatory meth
cd of accomplishing the same object,
Still others are trying to browbeat and
intimidate congress and the majority Of
the people, who have given the Demo
Gratis control of congress.
It is natural enough that those whom
the Republican party has been rearing
on the government bottle should make a
loud protest when it comes to weaving.
But they may as well understand that
they are wasting their breath. The Deme-
cratic party has promised to revise the
tariff in the interest not of its friends,
but Of its victims. 1t has been placed
by the people in control of the legisla-
tive and executive branches of the gov
ernment for the purpose of making such
revision, and it is to be hoped that it is
going to keep its promise. The people
have grown tired of contributing to the
enrichment of a handful of captains of
labor" They have demanded that the
exactions shall cease, and Il Democratic
congressman do not heed the demand
they will be called to a severe reckoning
by their constituents.
This is just the time to destroy pro-
tectionism, because the people have de-
creed it and because solid and permanent
prosperity will never be realized until
the huge tariff load has been lifted from
the industries of the country. This is a
time for courageous action, not for
cowardice. Postponement would be fatal
to the Democratic party. Prompt and
brave action will give it long lease of
power. There never will be better time
for action. If congress waits for pros
perity, the cry will be "Let well enough
alone," and that will be no less potent
than the present cry Of let too bad alone.
The work of revision must begin with
out further waste of time. Chicago

THERE Is no denying that the
eagcrness with which rich American
fathers throw their daughters into
the arms OF the foreign nobility and
gentry. and the willingness with
which the devoted virgins go TO the
sacrifice, irritate and hum ilate the
people OF this nation. II the nobl-
ity and gentry mentioned were
conspicuousy better physically, men
tally, and morally than our own
marriageable men, the preference
shown them by our heiresses would
be founded on reason. IL they
held women in higher, more deli.
cate regard than we do, the girls
could he forgiven their ignoring Of
patriotism in so strictly "a private
matter as selecting a husband. But
in general the foreigners whole out
tit for matrimony consists OF a title
that serves but as pedestal on
which to exhibit his unworth. 1t is
the fine distinction of the United
States that in il alone OF all the great
nations IL is held TO lie disgraceful in
man To make mercenary mar
riage. Here the woman Is still sup.
posed to be the one sought, and here
we still hold TO the belief that il is
the husbands part To provide the
tent and furnish the table with
game. Chivalry survives in great
strength in our social ideals, and the
fortune.hunter, the fellow on the
lookout for wife who will maintain
him, is despised. His disappoint-
ments before and after marriage are
food for newspaper exultation and
jesting, for popular merriment and
satisfaction.
