The governor of West Virginia, Demo-
GRAFT, elected to his present office by
Democratic votes, has appeared before the
Ways and Means committee and protest.
ed against the reduction or removal OF
the duty on coal. The duty on coal is a
purely protective duty, and the effect OF
it, according to the solemn declaration
of the party to which the governor OF
West Virginia belongs is to enable GER
tain coal barons to rob Is, GOO, 900 millions
of people for their own benefit. The
governor of West Virginia appears, there
fore, before the committee of Ways and
Means in behalf of the perpetuation of
a sy stem of public robbery. He asks
that every one who uses the kind OF coal
that West Virginia produces shall be
taxed to enable the coal baronsaof that
State to live in luxury and pile up stu
heirs The governor undertook to con-
ceal his real purpose to aggrandize the
coal barons by arguing that the removal
of the coal duty might affect the wages
of the coal miners, but that is bosh COM
ing from Democrat. for the Democrats
are committed to the doctrine that there
is no relation whatever between protec-
tive duties and the rate of-wages.
But the West Virginia governor was
not content with asking simply that the
coal barons be permitted to do some OF the
robbing. He wanted things SO fixed
that they could do it all. Apparently he
was for free trade in everything except
articles West Virginia was interested in.
The robber barons of Massachusetts who
are taxing 1000, 900 of people, that they
may run their mills he had no patience
with. He said he wanted the committee
to put an end to their robbery right off.
Yet he could think Of no industry in his
own State that should receive any less
protection than it is getting today. He
wants tariff reform everywhere except
in his own State. There he wants. the
robbery business to continue.

Gov. Crounse, of Nebraska, has given
his unqualified refusal to the request to
appoint delegates to the so-called Pan
American bimetalic convention to be held
ia st. Louis. Gov. Crounse says:
e / am in favor of honest bimetalism,
and believe that system of finance can
be devised in which both gold and silver
can be utilized as the basis of our nation
al currency-the former, which is the
worlds measure, being the standard.
II mistrust however that the bime-
talism your association processes is but
the pretext for the free coinage of silver
with silver monometalism and consequent
debasement of the curreny as it's object.
l can see why a silver-produing State
like Colorado should advocate the free
coinage Of silver, butt have no patience
with those who would invoke jealousy and
secttonal hostility to advance that end

Mr.. Voorhees, remarks in the Senate on
Tuesday make it clear that cloture will
not be adopted by the Senate, and that
no genuine attempt will be made by the
repealers to press that or any other plan
for limiting debate. The contest be-
tween the repealers and the silver men
resolves itself, therefore, into one of
physical endurance simply. Before a
vote is reached the silver men must be
tired out, they must be SO exhausted
that they can say nothing and do moth
ing. There are as many, certainly, as
thirty of them, probably more. What
the chances are of firing out thirty
determined men, all of them fluent in
speech, and all of them at liberty to pad
their matter with long extracts from
books and newspapers, the reader can
Judge for himself. To us it seems very
small, and we are strongly of the opin-
ion when the repealers find that the only
hope of passing the Sherman bill lies in
this direction enough Of them will grow
SO faint-hearted that either some COM
promise will be arranged or the bill will
be dropped altogether.

The ending of the tariff hearings must
bring great relief to the Democrats on
the committee. Ever since the hearings
began there has been stream of men
calliag themselves Democrats running
into the committee room and asking
that the protective duty on this article
and that be retained. A Democratic
pearl button manufacturer said the re-
moval of the duty from buttons
would destroy the industry. A Demo-
GRAFT engaged in the pottery business ar
gued strongly for the retention of pro-
tective duties. and finally to cap the
climax the Democratic governor of West
Virginia pleaded for the retention of the
duty on all the industries of that State,
while at the same time arguing in favor
Of removing the protection from the
manufacturers of New England. The
mum Der and earnestness of the Democrat
ic robbers must have been quite appall-
ing to Prof. Wilson, and he was no doubt
glad to have the procession cut short.
