In devoting himself to the defeat of
the amended Wilson tariff bill, Senator
Hill will not be devoting himself to the
defeat of measure to which the Demo-
cratic party pledged itself in 1892, the
Boston Herald to the contrary notwith-
standing. The Wilson bill, neither in
its original or it amended form, redeems
the pledge of 1892 That pledge was.for
astariff for revenue only, from which all
protection was to be abolished. The
Wilson bill is not that-it is not close
approach to that. Many duties are
avowedly laid for protection, many are
removed with the certainty of destroy
ing revenue. If the Democratic pledge
had been simply to pass tariff bill the
passage of this bill would be redemp-
ton of it. But it was pledge to pass a
particular kind of tariff bill, kind
very different from the Wilson bill. Sena-
tor Hill will have not the slightest diff
Guilty in the world in proving that the
Wilson bill is violation of the Demo
craic pledge instead of redemption of
il. The facts are all ON his side.

PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

The seemingly interminable boundary
suit between Pennsylvania and Della
ware supposed to have been settled for
ever by the recent decision of the joint
commission headed for the two States
respectively by Am bassador MacVeagh
and Am bassador Bayard is likely to
be re-opened by an appeal to the courts.
John T. johnson. the Delawarean who
at first threatened to resist by force the
planting of the boundary stone that
makes his land Pennsylvania territory,
now declares that he will not pay taxes
to Chester county, Pa, and that he
will bring the Commissions decision to
a test in the courts of that Common
wealth.
The term of Chauncey M. Depew as
elective Yale trustee expires this year.
He is a candidate for reelection, and

Miss Anne Whitney, the designer of
the Boston statue of Left Ericsson, is not
at all disturbed by the recent proposal
that the work should be removed from
it's place of vantage at the foot of Com
monwealth avenue, and carried off to
the East Boston flats. The aldermen
actually passed an order to this effect,
but the common council refused to in
dorse it. Miss Whitney says that if her
work will not bear the test of time she
is willing that it should be removed.
One of the grounds OF. objection to the
statue is it's small size land the alleged
fact that it does not suggest either
strength or daring.

The Iowa legislature will devote April
4th to celebrating the ninetieth birthday
of George W. Jones, of Dubuque, who
was the first United States senator from
that State. Mr.. Jones introduced the
bill under which Wisconsin was organ
lied as State, and he gave the new
commonwealth it's name, as he did later
in the case of Iowa, which had been
made territory at his earnest solicita-
ton. Mr.. Jones enjoys the unique dis
tinction of having at one ti.ne represent
ed in Congress, as territorial delegate,
the great region extending from Lake
Huron to the Missouri river. He was a
drummer boy in the war of 1912, was an
intimate friend of Andrew Jackson, and
was one Of the reception committee ap'
pointed by Congress to welcome Lafay-
cite in 1924.

AS matter of policy it would have
been wiser for the President to have
omitted the suggestion that he might
approve the coinage of the seigniorage
if provision were made for the issue of
bonds. 1t is not pleasing to the East,
which issopposed to the coinage of the
seigniorage on any condition, and instead
of conciliating the silver men, as per-
haps it was meant TODD, it has operated
on them very muchsas red flag does

against that paragraph than against any
other in the message.

The attempt of the Democrats OF the
House to GUST Joy and seat O'Neill is
simply an attempt to steal seat by TAX
ing advantage of technical1ties. Many
Democrats are opposed to it and have
aided in breaking a quorum either by
absenting themselves from the House
or by keeping silent when their names
were called. The performance has not
even the poor excuse that O'Neill's vote
is needed to give the Democrats work
ing majority, for they have eighty with
out him, which is large enough for
every purpose.

What will the silver men do now that
the seigniorage bill has been vetoed?
They will do all the mischief they can,
that is certain. But their method OF
doing it is yet to be determined. Proba-
bly, d. free coinage. bill.will be introduced
and its chance of passage is good, but OF
course it will encounter veto, SO that
really nothing will be accomplished by
that except to waste time. Probably
also every attempt to provide for the
relief of the treasury which is fast run
ming behind by the issue of bonds will
be opposed and prevented. In this di-
rection lies chiefly the powersof the sill
yer men for mischief The treasury
will be behind 1000, 900 at the close of
the, present year, and will be left with
out any resource for making up the def
cheney unless the Secretary is authorized
by new act to issue DO nds. With the
silver men opposed to it no such act can
passed. How, then, the needs of the
treasury are to be supplied will be a
problem which will give the admins
tration much anxiety,
To what extent the veto of the seig-
niorage bill will affect the chances OF the
passage of the Wilson bill cannot i'm.
mediately be determined, but that it will
affect them unfavorably is very certain.
The bill is not popular with many DEM
ocratic senators, and there is no doubt
that some of them have all .along been
anxious to get good excuse for voting
against 1t or side tracking it. Hill does
not like it, neither does Murphy. though
the latter has regarded it rather more
favorably since the duty ON collars and
cuffs was raised. German and Brice
are lukewarm, and Pugh's constituents
do not approve of the low duties on iron
and coal. The Populist senators are GER
talnly not enthusiastic for it. Yet all of
them, with the possible exception of thu
Populists, were likely to yield to party
pressure and vote for it. The veto of
the seigniorage bill has however SO split
the party that it's going to be difficult to
bring much pressure TO bear. A large
wing of the party is SO exasperated with
the veto that not only will it not be
likely to help along the administration
programme, which includes the passage
Of the tariff bill, but will incline to
interpose obstacles to prevent it. 1t may
cool off. but just now it is in a state of
mind that would make the fact of the
administration desire for certain legis-
lation sufficient reason for opposing it.
Certainly it will not furnish any aid
towards it's accomplishment. II this feel
ing continues it's influence will be felt on
the tariff bill which the administration
wants passed above all other measures
now before Congress. There is great
variety of ways in which it can be
exerted. 1t can plot to put silver legis-
lation before the tariff bill, and it can
stimulate thesssenators who are already
Indifferent towald,t the measure into active
hostility. If the.silver men really make
up their minds to defeat the tariff there
is but little question but they can do
it, and at the present time that is un-
doubtedly their inclination.
