WHAT THE COUNTRY WANTS.

What the country wants, says Amer
ican Industries, and what Congress
should attempt to give it, is a system
of taxation which shall rest lightly
upon industry and upon the people,
Congress should not sit still and wait
for comparatively ignorant representa-
tives of the little industries to present
long arguments; 1t should only permit
those industries to send in their state
ments, to be considered when neces-
sary, and should invite well known and
able patriots, who have for years been
students of social and economic condi-
tions, to present the needs of the people
before the committees.
Such course would be ridiculed as
Impractical" by the pearl-button, tin
plate, jacknife and piano-felt men, who
figured so prominently in the Mckinley
bill; but iC is time that this country
turned its back on these narrow, selfish
bigots and gave ear to the broad
minded men who are recognized as
authorities on public questions. We
should take advantage of the learning
of this age by adopting some of the
economic principles which are about as
firmly established as is the fact that
water always seeks level.
For example, the almost unanimous
opinion of authorities for the last fifty
years has been that trade is blessing
and not curse, and that direct is pre-
ferable to indirect taxation. Yet here
we are trying to kill trade, and using
an old fogy method of taxation because
it is highly satisfactory to the manu-
facturers who have taken the trouble
to make our taxation laws for US.
The present Congress should legislate
for the whole people to whom it owes
It's existence. If it shirks its duty and
legislates for any class or party it may
expect the fate of the Mckinley Con-
greSS,

IF there is still Protectionist that
believes that the foreigner pays the tax
he has only to go to the Worlds Fair
to have the foolishness knocked out of
him. In all the foreign exhibits the
price of the article is given, and also
the price with duty paid. Thus, in the
Belgium exhibit of suitings, price $3.50
per yard; with duty paid, $500; or
cloth, $l.50, and tax, $3.50. Then,
when you compare the showing made
by any foreign country with the
miserable display this country makes
in the same line of goods, you will be
forced to admit that all these years of
high protection has been an age of
extortion and robbery, and that the
foreigner may well laugh at the poor
American who clothes himself with
half shoddy and the other half tax

The Mckinley tariff was put on to
restrict trade and depress home labor,
leaving the Carnegies and Fricks who
helped buy the law, free to employ
laborers from all the pauper high tariff
countries of Europe. They know that
labor is on the free list and that prices
of necessary commodities are enhanced.
They know also that the increased tar
iff was represented as (more truly mis-.
represented) for labor, when its direct
purpose was to cheat labor. After it
was put on, down went wages, as the
honest newspapers foretold. And
wages will have continued tendency
downward until trade is encouraged by
wise tariff changes. Demagogues will
spout and belch falsehoods, but the
facts stand out SO prominently that
those who read intelligently can form
but one conclusion.
We need a wise financial change, a
wise tariff change and business will re
cover again.-Youngstown Vindicator

THE Mayor of Dublin, AZ members of

THE Mayor of Dublin, AZ members Of
Parliament and distinguished Irishmen
in every line of business and the pro-
fessions, have petitioned President
Cleveland to continue Hon. J. j. Piatt
as U. s. Consul at Dublin. He was
superseded, without notification, by an
Iowa man, appointed by Secretary
Gresham and this petition in answer is
the proudest recognition that could be
bestowed upon an American official,
and one that President Cleveland will
not lightly pass over.

CHAUNoY DEPEw is the only Re,
publican of note smart enough to see
that it is confession of weakness on
his side of the house to assert that the
business of the country is not on a
sound financial basis. He kno VS. enough
to know that when the Republicans
make contrary assertions they impeach
their own acts as the Republican party
is responsible for the entire legislation
now in operation in this country.

How vely foxy and diplomatic our
John Sherman is. In an interview at
Mansfield, John thinks it is very doubt
ful "what those fellows will do" (mean-
ing his fellow members of Congress)
when Congress meets, on the repeal of
the sherman silver law. OF course
John is now willing to see the essence
of "all human wisdom" on finance
wiped out. In fact the law he
framed, only three years ago, as the
best essence of human wisdom he then
had In stock, is now a dangerous men
ace to the country, according to Johns
own confession. We are just wonder
ing what is now Johns best essence of
human wisdom on finance. We predict

set for the hearing. Attorney Eddy,
who appeared for the exposition COM
pany, assented and the court set the
motion for hearing at $3.50 o'clock to-
morrow morning, and ordered a rule to
issue against such Of the directors as
had been regularly served with notice
Of the proceeding.
Director General Davis has under
consideration the promulgation of a
special order closing all the depart
mental buildings of the exposition
every night of the week at o'clock
except the electricity building. There
Is general expectation In official
circles that the order will be issued in a
day or two. The reasons for it are sub
stantial, but the principal one relates to
the safety of the buildings and ex-
hibits. Since the reduction of the Co
lumbian guards to 1900 the admins
tratiye off GERS of the fair have been
solicitous for the safety of the exhibits
in the big buildings. 1t is well known
that nearly all the thefts are committed
at night between 6 and II o'clock, when
many Of the agents in charge of ex-
hibits go home. Then there iS always
danger from fireworks at night and it
is good deal easier to control crowd
outside of building when on fire.
The second week of the National Edu-
cation congress is in session, with no
diminution in the interest that
has so far attended this feature of the
series of international gatherings. Many
Of those that participated in last weeks
proceedings remained over for the
meetings of the present week, and they
were reinforced by prominent educators
Of both sexes who had found it impossi-
BILE to put in an appearance on the scene
at an earlier date.

colored people who lived in Virginia to

alton. There are times when even
silence is golden.

Means are being taken to furnish en-

on account of the scarcity of relief
funds, they cannot continue to feed
the hungry longer than today.
Meetings are held nightly to provide
means for aid in which Denver's most
prominent people take part. 1t is esti-

THE July settlements made by the
savings banks are unusually encourag-
ing, as they show that depositors have
had their interest charged up, instead
of making a run on the banks and
withdrawing their deposits. Wherever
depositors have done SO they have
awakened to the fact that they have
lost their interest and made fools of
themselves besides.

THE barber derives his class title
