LOSING ITS HEAD.

We regret to see so able a paper as the
New York Sun going daft on the subject
of tariff reform. 1t insists that the tariff
plank in the Chicago platform shall be
given the authority Of a provision of the
constitution. On this point it says: The
Democratic majority in Congress and Mr..
Cleveland cannot be in favor of free wool.
Free wool may do as a rider to pro-
tective tariff. but under a tariff for revenue
only wool must pay its way at the Custom.
house like every other article.
Why not free wool as well as free coffee,
free tea or free sugar? While there is n o
probability that coffee and tea will be sub
jected to duty it is urged that the funda-
mental principles OF a tariff for revenue
only will prevent a removal OF the duties
on wool. The sun must know that neither
Mi Cleveland nor Congress proposes to
give the country a tariff for Tevep ne only.
The most they will do will be to approach
that condition by easy stages. as Robert J.
Walker did in 1886 The advantage of this
easy stage policy is that the people may
arrest progress toward a revenue tariff be-
fore it reaches its last stage. So it has
been in the past and so it probably will be
in the future. People who remember the
condition the tariff of 1876 brought the
country to by 1857 have little apprehension
that second application of that policy
will be allowed ten years trial.

WHY THIS HASTE?

All the Eastern gold papers are be-
seeching the Senate to hurry up" vote
on the repeal bill. One of these hurry up
screechers says:
The question of repeal has been thoroughly
discussed by the country 1t has been fully de-
bated In the House. The subject has been ex-
hausted. All the argument, reason aud logic
that can be advanced for or against has been
advanced. The question has been decided and
the verdict rendered. It is that the Sherman
law must be repealed aud the purchase OF sill
yer stopped.
This haste is indecorous. The repeal
bill will probably pass, and If it is bad
law the more certain its end. the less need
of haste. 1t will not greatly embarrass the
treasury to purchase 100000 ounces Of
silver in Septembe The anxiety of the
gold press to make haste seems to indicate
an apprehension that full discussion may
affect results. There is probably no dan
ger. Unless Cleveland changes his mind
the Senate will pass the repeal bill.

HELPING IMMIGRANTS.

The head of the Aston family seems to
have allowed his prejudice against the
United States 10 extend TO Canada. In a
recent article Ia the Pail Malt Gazette an
entire stoppage Of assisted immigration to
Canada is advised. The people who are
helped to Canada generally bring up In
the United States. This fact Mr.. Aston
regards as conclusive that Canada must be
a pretty bad place to live in. 1t may
never have occurred to Mr.. Astor that i'm
migrants are assisted not so much for the
benefit of the country to which their faces
are directed as for the good of that which
they leave behind. In countries like Eng
land, where all the land and most of the
money are in the hands of a few people
the cheapest way to maintain the existing
condition of things is to hold open way to
some newer country.
