Our esteemed contemporary, the Louis
ciHe C1Mrier-Journdi, AYERS that the Ameri-
can people will not much longer submit to
system OF taxation which nourishes such
harples rs tho so-called industrial stocks.
which are just now causing such consterna-
ton in Wall street" 1t explains that the
Industrial stocks are n Trust. and that the
remedy for Trusts is n tariff for revenue
only. On the other hand. our sage old
Republican friend. the 81. Loui Globe
Democrat. predicts that the Republican
party will make short work with Trusts
when 1t gets into power again. So the
Democratic philosopher would do way
with Trusts by destroying protection, while
the Republican philosopher would do away
: with them by continuing protection.
As for the Trusts. we don't know. They
are pretty tough customers. and they seem
to thrive equally well under Republican and
under Democratic rule. and whatever
roubles come upon any OF them arise from
want OF business ability on the part Of their
managers. or excessive desire for the
profits OF gambling in their stocks
aud the ineradicabls tendency OF man to
want to do too big n business for his capi-
tai: but at laws and resolutions and edito-
rails. Democratic. Republican. Populistic.
they laugh.
Still. the Democrats are bound in honor
and decency, to wipe out the protective tariff
and to give the country a tariff for rcvc-
nue. only. us they have promised. We sus-
pect that the Trust harpics will continue
to squawk with II fair degree OF cheerful
ness. whatever be the tariff; but it is the
duty OF the Democracy to ascertain by ex-
pertinent what the effect Of n tariff for reve-
nue. only will be upon Trusts and every
thing else. Whoever or whatever is helped
or hurt. tho unconstitutional spoliation
called protection must stop. The Demo-
Gratis have solcmnly promised to stop it:
and II they go back upon their word. they
will have to pay the penalty.

S%ympnthy for n Canadian.

To INF EpiIoR OF THg SrS-Sri Francis wayIand
Campbell. Esq. NJ. D. Of Bishops College. Montreal,
Quebec, has my sympathy. lie bears an honored name
because his parents were humble and worthy members
OF the Baptist Church. Ninety.rive per cent. of the
Rapists OF Quebec and Ontario belonged to tue Liberal
party "f Canada. Here ami there one who by accident
secures II high position In what is supposed to be
ari''ocratic society becomes enamored Of the d.
vine risht "f kingship. and imagiies that his success
IN society Is All expression OF divine Appreciation. ard
that he holds his position by divine right.
Francis Wayland Campbell. NJ. u. OF Montreal an.
pears 10 ne one OF this class. A mere assertion from
one IN his high position Is supposed to overcome and
outweigh The most stubborn facts. To deny that tho
'H""i''"' Wt"r' Is one OF the most reliable newspapers
published in Canada is like denying that two ana two
make four. Every 'ne in Canada not a blI nj partisan
knows Il M we'll as he knows ms A BCs. Tho uI,ue.,

15,uoo, or more than three times as great as that OF
the English oAin OF the Dominion Government for
the provinc" II Quebec. and a weekly circulation OF
$1,000. or Twelve times AS great.
Before Messrs, John Douga ! 4 Son made public their
statemen, IN rotation to the e Xodls from Quebec to the
United states they sent correspondents 10 various
parts OF the province aud to the railway stations and
ascertatned the facts as to the emigration from Que
bee, Tie statement: OF the lIhrs. was made. there
fore, after a careful Investigation. and is OF value. The
denial Of Francis Wavland Campbell. NJ. D.. was In.
spired by partisan nreIud &c, without investigation.
and therefore Is "i no value whatever. Francis Way
land Campbell. NJ D.. admits that the French race 10
very prolific. Reliable authorit cs place the natural
increase or popuiation in Quebec as high as ~ Der
cent. per annum. The Dom .nion census reports All In.
crease In population in Quebec for the decade from
1871 10 1851 OF fifteen per cent, and from 1881 to 1891
only nine per cent. In The great Protestant province
of Ontario. where the popuH,ion is largely Scotch, tho
increase from 1871 10 1881 WAS nearly ninei cen Dor
cent, and from 1881 10 1891 less than ten per cent.
There are mote Campbells. Mac DonAlds. AAcDouyalls

pledge to make such necessary changes
in short, they made them.
So 1t is with the corporation avs. which
the Democrats have improved. with the
highway and forestry regulations. with
municipal public works. with a revision OF
the statutes, and with other similar mat
tiers OF public Importance. The Republicans
in the Legislature have initiated nothing
and opposed everything. Their leaders have
kept up an hysterical cutlery against all
progressive Legislation, without Offering an
alternative proposition or sustaining any
OF their accusations. The voters OF the
State have. therefore, ceased to be alarmed
by such demonstrations. Manv OF them,
formerly Republicans. have ceased voting
the Republican ticket. Others have grown
lukewarm in support OF their party candi-
dates. No recruits are seen rushing over
to tho Republican standard.
The Democratic party Of New York stands
fairly and squarely by its record and
pledges. They constitute the only tests OF
it's claim to continued popularity. III the
Republican leaders believe that they can be
restored to political supremacy by indis-
eliminate denunciation OF everything Demo-
cratic. there is. OF course. no law to prevent
them from adhering to such n fallacy; out
it has brought them nothing but disaster
and disappointment in the past. and the
outlook for them Is no brighter In 1893
than heretofore.

The Governors of six Mexican states

A distinguished party from Mexico, con-
sisting OF the Governors Of six OF the chief
States Of that republic. will very o mako

II such a party Of American Governors
were to visit the city Of Mexico. they would
surely be received there with public honors:
and this is n fact that deserves to be thought

The Chicago Board of Education has set
an example to the New York Board Of Educa-
tion In providing that the teaching OF the
German language In the public schools shall
he abolished at the end Of the school year.
The question Of cutting oil this study has been
under debate for years in our Board. and a
few weeks ago it was pressed upon the atten-
tion Of the Board by one Of its " members
with great force. but without effect. He main
tanned that there would be rs good reason for
teaching in our public schools the Italian Lam
guage or any one OF half u dozen other foreign
languages here spoken as there Is for teach
ing tho German. and that the public money
appropriated for schools ought to be expended
for the education Of children in the language
OF this country alone. School Commissioners
GERARD's arguments are sound: the chango
which he socks to bring about is desirable.
There should be no other language than that
OF our laws taught In the common schools.
We suppose that the proportion OF Germans
in the population of Chicago is greater than It
Is in that OF this city: yet Chicago has taken

The Great Council OF Professionalism

The coming General Assembly OF the
Presbyterians at Washington will have be-
fore 1t for settlement two great and funda-
mental questions Of religious doctrine.
The first OF these is rs to the authority Of
the Bible. upon which the whole body OF
Christian doctrine depends. According to
the theory Of DR.. BRIGGS and his school Of
Biblical scholars, the Bible Is n collection OF
| Jewish writings Of unknown md undiscov-
cradle authorship. in chief part descriptive
OF the religious evolution OF a semi-barbar-
Gus people. These writings they attribute
TO anonymous scribes. who edited the
records Of their race. giving to them the
authority of the great names Of Israel. with
n view to imposing upon the people by hum
bug and false pretcnces.
DIR. DIX has said very truly that IL this
theory Of the author ship OF tho Bible lie
sustained. the next generation will be a race
of unbclievers. II the source Of Christian
doctrine be thus tainted. mankind will re-
ject the whole system OF theology from
which it comes.
Accordingly, the coming General Assem-
bly, OF the Presbyterians will be one OF the
great conventions Of Christcndom. Its
special task will be to determine the au-
thority Of the Bible.
Incidentally 1t will deal with the question
as to the future accountability OF man.
This is a question Of prime Importance. for
upon it depends the greater and the SUI
preme question Of the personality OF COP.
JOHN CALVIN was a remorseless logician.
and he concluded that il there was future
punishment. it must have been determined
by The DEGREES of the omnipotent and
omniscient GoD before all time. Either
there will be universal salvation. his logic
affirmed. or the victims OF the punishment
of hell were selected particularly by the
Divine judgment for their awful fate.
These are the great questions which will
come before the General Assembly that is
to meet this month at Washington: and
hence that gathering will nave an i'm
portance not secondary to the great con-
vention which met Mt Westminster to adopt
the formal Confession that Is accepted by
the great majority Of Professionals.

Lobby and Boss.

Our venerable contemporary. the BALI
more Sun, discusses with becoming gravity
the question. is the Lobby Out Of Date %
1t mentions that the lobby has gone from
several State Legislatures, and argues that.
as the big corporations eat up the little
ones, so the boss has absorbed the lobby
Then comes this piece OF solemn philosophy
and wisdom cheap Mt onv price:

~ Oh. ''om Commits room U house ana from

cause the member cannot oct upon any important
question until he gets word"
We take it that il the lobby has disap-
peared it is because people AVE found the
lobby out. and know that it has no power
to furnish the votes for which it demands
money. The lobby is Il good theme enough
for novelists and playwrights. who are
willing to write conventional political
novels and plays OF Washington or Al
bany. or any capital you please. To the
political moralist who is content to moral
ize about n condition OF affairs of which no
knows nothing save from hearsay. or the
magnifed reports OF sensation sellers. the
lobby and the lobbyist are good pegs to
hang an essay or n magazine article on:
but when you come to look for a lobby or a
lobbyist. the task would be much like look
ing for n silver in the Atlantic Ocean.
The lobbyist, wherever he has existed, has
made his living by false pretences. He has
imposed upon the credulity OF persons
whom he has made to believe that he can
buy or control certain votes. There can be
no sympathy for the fools whom he deluded.
for they were %scoundrels MS well as fools.
We fancy, however, that a large part Of
that once mysterious body called the lobby,
was composed OF men who were not half so
bad as they painted themselves. They hung
about Legislatures because they had once
been members, liked to keep up some lit
tie reminiscence of their own importance.

the lead Of New York in providing that the
German language shall be tut out OF the school
studies. We shall surely follow Chicago's ex-
ample in this matter. The proportion OF Ger
mans in the population Of New York has been
decreasing for years. It is vet larger than
that OF the Italians. but is far less than that OF
the Italians combined with the Scandinavians
and foreiRn-born Hebrews. We do not teach
the Jargon which Is the native speech OF these
Hebrews. any more than We teach either Of
the scandinavian languages or the italian.
Why should there be any discrimination in
favor Of the German language. even though IL
be one OF the most muscular. intellectual.
spiritual. and humorous OF all the languages
spoken by mankind?

A man with n chronic grievance against man.
