HASTEN TARIFF REFORM.

The Sentinel voices public sentiment in
this part of the country in saying that
congress will make a mistake if it ad-
journs before passing a tariff bill. Of
course there may be causes for delay
that seem important from a Washing
ton standpoint, but there will have TO
be something very substantial to make
an adjournment satisfactory to the peo-
pie at large. The repeal of the Sherman
law will do away with the immediate
will relieve the national treasury Of the
heavy burden of silver purchases i'm
posed upon it by that awful blunder Of
the billion-dollar congress. But the re-
peal Of the Sherman law will not correct
the evil results that have come from the
panic that 1t created. These still exist
Business is cramped, and many men are
thrown out of employment on account of
it. This stoppage of employment has
reacted, because the people have less
money to spend. and. therefor, sales
have fallen off in all departments of
business. People feel a pressure and in
stinctively contract their spheres Of
operations, thereby making the matter
worse. 1t has been a scare, a sense
as serious as if there had been some
basis for it, and the recovery from such
panics is usually slow.
What the country needs now is a
stimulant. 1t needs something to make
it throw off these evil effects quickly
1t needs something that will set bust
ness in motion. The best conceivable
remedy is the speedy passage Of tariff
reform law, and this for two reasons
In the first place it will relieve trade
Of the heavy artificial burden that has
so long been upon it and give the peo-
pie the benefit of cheeper prices at the
time they most need them. Tariff re-
form cannot come too soon for that
purpose. In the second place it will let
manufacturers and importers know the
basis on which their business will be
conducted, during this administration at
least. and enable them to go to work
under full pressure. 1t is the general
expectation that the bill will give them
raw materials free. or at a very much re-
duced rate, and this would certainly be
a stimulus to every factory owner in
the country whose raw materials are
taxed by the existing tariff. and there
are few that are not. Why not give
them this advantage as quickly as pos
sible? We can see no good reason for
an adjournment. If the committee on
ways and means is not ready to re-
port the house can occupy itself with
other matters until it is ready, and the
senate can certainly find occupation in
the bills that have passed the house
during the senate's nine weeks talk.
Let us proceed to business.

II is estimated that many of the clti-
zens OF northern Indiana counties have
spent at least 100000 at the Chicago
exposItion-that is each OF many coun-
ties will average that amount. AS we
get lower down In the state the amount
grows less. The total OF the money
spent In Chicago by Indiana people must
be enormous. approaching probably
millions. The Lagrange Democrat says:
1T is estimated that not less than 1900
out of a total population in the city and
county OF over 1900 have visited Chi
cago since May /. 1893 Some OF these
have been TO Chicago during the sum-
mer as many as three times. The num-
Der Of days spent at the fair range from
one day TO two weeks. The average
time is not less than four days. The
very least calculation places the average
sum Of money spent by each OF the 5000
people at SIS. Some spent four OF five
times this amount and very few spent
less. including railroad fare. The money
expended all went out Of the county"

England.

The late news from Washington puts
a more cheering face on the tariff reform
bill 1t is said to have been submitted
in the rough to the president and Secre-
tary Carlisle. and is a genuine tariff re-
form measure. The president is reported
ready TO send In a message on Hawaiian
affairs as soon as the silver question is
out Of the way. and this will hold con-
Rress until the tariff bill is ready. There
is. therefore. reasonable ground to hope
that congress will do its tariff legislating
before it adjourns. and that the legisla-
ton adopted will be of the sort the peo-

A. p. A. LAMLEssNEss.

The A p A. bigotry is fast approach
ing the stage of bitterness that the lead
ers Of the movement have tried to create
among those on whom it makes war. 1t
finds that men who have entered its fold
under misapprehension of its real objects
are deserving it, and all the hatred which
it has been cultivating against foreign
ers now turns on these "apostates" and
traitors" and manifests itself in way
that must disgust all civilized people.
An instance of this kind has just oc-
Cured in Denver in the case Of Mayor
M. d. VanHorn, who has this certificate
of character from the Denver News: HE
is an exemplary husband and loving
father. He was union soldier promoted
for bravery ON the field of battle. He
is a protestant and a native-born Amer
lean citizen" But Mr. VanHorn APP
pointed an Irish catholic to office and
thereby violated the blood-curdling oath
which these political schemers impose on
their members, for the chief purpose of
p. A. and no greater offense against it
can be committed than for an A. P. A.
to give Office to outsiders when he gets
in charge of a pie-counter. On account
of this objectionable sin the order adopt
ed resolutions of condemnation. among
which were the following:
Resolved. That a photograph or like
ness of said traitor be prepared bearing
across the breast of said likeness "A Ro-
man cross painted thereon, surmounted
by the word Traitor" said likeness to
be draped in black and hung in our
council chamber.
Resolved. That when his carcass re-
poses in the arms of mother earth, in
wha tsOeVer land, an unknown commit
tee, duly appointed shall perform the
last rite i'm the name Of this council. by
marking the place so that all may know,
"ffpre Lies a Traitor"
VIII our readers consider for a mo-
ment two questions? What was the Of
Tense? What is the punishment? The
offense is obedience to the provision Of
the Colorado constitution that mo per-
son shall be denied any civil or politi-
cal right, privilege or capacity on &C
count of his opinions concerning relig-
ion man who puts his all -giance to
the constitution of his state higher than
his allegiance to A. p. A. rules is a
traitor" meriting the severest punish
ment This is what these people call
patriotism. And what punishment do
they propose? An act that is a criminal
offense in every state in the union-the
Dissertation of a grave. This is what
these people call the preservation Of
American institutions. What a horrible
burlesque upon American liberty is this
proclamation of lawless defiance to the
very foundations of Americanism. And
yet this is the almost inevitable end to
which secret societies organized for law
less purposes will come. To accomplish
the purpose of overthrowing constitu-
tional liberty lawless methods must nee
essarily be adopted. VIII our readers
consider these things and will they re-
feet on the further humiliating fact that
these crimes are done in the name of
professionalism? Can any protestant af-
ford to countenance such things? Can
any American afford it?

The Oklahoma scheme for a govern
ment bureau of relief" which made its
appearance in the senate Tuesday, seems
defective in two particulars. 1t provides
as the duties of the bureau:
They shall see to it that the rich and
poor are helped along. If a few dollars
will help a rich man out of a tight pinch
so he can retain his property ii shall
be furnished. All poor men shall be fur
nished comfortable home and the COM
forts of life provided. If they are able
TO work employment shall be found for
them; if unable to work, medical aid and
assistance shall be found for them; but
every person must have a home, well
furnished in needful things. plenty of
room, food, fuel, lights, bedding, cloth
ing, cooking utensils, Everything TO
make them comfortable. And they shall
be furnished with teams, wagons, farm
ing utensils, tools Of any kind, hired
help, extra buildings, payment on prop
erty that can't be met, or any article of
much value that is needed to make men
self-Supporting.
Any person with 5000 receiving aid
shall repay 1t at the quickest possible
moment without interest
For the purpose Of meeting this eX-
pense there shall be a direct tax of %
cents assessed on every person over ten
years of age and 10 cents on every 800
real valuation Of property.
The first objection to this is that it
includes provision for the rich. The re
suit of this would be that the rich, under
pretense Of need. would take all the
funds of the bureau. The second OBJ
lection is that It includes the poor. The
result of this would be that the bureau
could never get money enough to sup
ply them. In other respects the scheme
seems to be a most worthy one.

A Chicago paper takes the following
for a text to read lecture to Indiana
and her people:
Since a party Of professionally good
women came from Indiana a few days
ago to reform the slums of wicked Chi
cago many have supposed that those
great and truly good reformers had been
forced to extend their influences outside
OF their own bailiWicks because nothing
was left for them to reform at home.
This, 1t appears, it not the case. While
that noble little band Of skylarking
SpartanS has been enjoying low life in
Chicago Satan has been busy in Hoosier-
dom. -Four noble white-cap professional
reformers, who did not come to Chicago,
but were left to guard the field at home,
have just been sentenced to Jail in
Charlottesville for tarring and feather
ing and torturing an erring sister.
Following the foregoing comes a re-
sumo of the Wratten murders, recent
white-cap deviltry, the mailing OF small
pox scabs from Muncle. late prize fights
and train robberies.
We must admit that 1t is rather
formidable arraignment. and yet much
may be said in defense of the people Of
the state. The sentiment of the state is
in decided opposition to white-capism
and prize fighting. Several white caps
were recently sentenced to long terms
Of Imprisonment in southern Indiana,
Roby has been squelched and the Of
ficials of Hamilton county are hunting
down the participants in the recent bout
at Fishers Station. The report of the
mailing of smallpox scabs is not
true. The Sentinel correspondent at
Muncie in Saturday mornings paper
demonstrated that it is utterly i'm
possible for anyone to use the mails
for any such a purpose under the
stringent quarantine regulations now
prevailing at Muncie. Train wrecking
and roboeries are not confined to any
one section. They have been Of common
occurrence from one end Of the country
to the other. Indiana has been overrun
with tramps ever since the Chicago ex-
position opened and on their way back
and forth they have put this state under
contribution. Many of the prevailing
highway robberies, train wreckings, bur
glaries, incendiary fires, etc, we think
may be traced to the tramp.

HUME was q model of patient per.

wrote until he had read everything he
could find on the subject he intended
discussing, and then. retaining the mat

reference to his authorities.
WALTER SCOTT preferred to write be-

work was done ere the guests In his
