The reason why the internal revenue part
Of the tariff bill has not been completed is
that Mr.. Cleveland and his heretofore willing
tools, the Democrats on the Ways and Means
committee, have locked horns over the prop
ositiou to include therein an income tax, to
which Mr.. Cleveland is opposed. Up to this
time all efforts to reach compromise have
been unsuccessful, and some shrewd men are
predicting that the income tax will be the
rock upon which the Cleveland and anti
Cleveland Democrats in Congress will split
for good and all. We shall see.
The administration men are talking in
mysterious way about new treaty with
China. which the administration IS negotiat-
ing. They claim so many things for this
treaty that it will perhaps be better to wait
and ascertain how much truth there is in
their claims. Many statesmen have tried TO
get the best of the willy Chinese diplomats,
but up to date none have succeeded to any
marked extent, aud Mr.. Gresham is hardly
the man to make good job, even if he had
a good foundation to build upon.

Arthur couuelly, aged IS years, was shat
at Dover Thanksgiving Day while cunning
in company with two or three other boys Of
the same age. Douslass Kersey, one Of the
boys, was fooling with his gun when il went
off, and the entire load entered Connelly's
left arm and side. The accident is Of a ser
Gus nature, but will not prove fatal.

WE have accepted at the dicta-

England may prosper and grow rich
in supplying us with manufactured

it would incorporate iDto our laws

bic shrewdness. Their policy di-
vides and demoralizes the enemy at
the beginning of the battle. It Is
also a policy which commends itself
to the most ardent America-for-the-
Americans patriot"
The Daily Telegraph says of Mr.
Cleveland's utteranees concerning
Hawaii Such a frank and honest
admission Of a mistake and. avowal
of the intention to reverse it reflects
the highest possible credit upon the
President, and, indirectly, upon the
Nation.
The Financial Ne,Os says 1t is
impossible not to be struck with the
earnestness of Mr. Cleveland's con-
viction and his broad, sound states
manship. His message teens with
suggestive material, the import of
which it is difficult to realize at a
single glance.
The Pail Mall Gazette says The
statement in the message with refer
ence to Hawaii will cause ex-Presi-
dent Harrison to hang his head to
hide his bushes. Mr.. Cleveland
shows to the best advantage when
he talks on the tariff He is making
a gallant attempt to regain the posi-
tiOn he occupied prior to the election
of Mr.. Harrison. If he succeeds we
have no doubt as to the result. His
success will rivet upon Americans |
the belief in free trade,
The 81. James Gazette says We
are inclined to the belief that the
Cleveland Cabinet will not be want
ing in efforts to turn the Presidents
brave words into deeds. Owing to
the fact that the President is now
serving his second term he is in a
happy position. He has nothing
to lose, and he is left free
to consult the best interests of the
State. 1
The Globe says 1t is infrequent
hat an American President is so
As a rule he is too .
much of a wire puller, and the inter- j.
sts of the country are subordinated :
o party interests. The message is
courageous one and shows that Mr.. =
)leveland is strong man with a a
efnite policy, which he intends to d
AIRY out. His policy is not to catch b
otes. If he should be able to effect F
is aims the United States will be $,
n the high road to free trade. n
The Paris Temps says: Since st
resident Lincoln no President has n
isplayed so much individuality as 81
Ir. Cleveland. He has stamped the th
'deral policy with the seal of his m

that it is the true policy of tie
