FALSE PRETENSES.
Democratic Incapacity for Intelligent
Legislation.

Almost as soon as the votes cast at
the presidential and congressional
elections in 1892 had been counted the
democratic newspapers which had ad-
vocated the radical tariff reform to
which the democratic party wasa
pledged by the Chicago platform be-
gan urging President-elect Cleveland
to call an extra session of congress as
soon as he should assume office.
Such papers as the New York Times,
Boston Herald, Chicago Herald and
Louisville Courier-J ournal insisted
that the people had voted for tariff
reform, and it was the duty of the
democrats to give it to them as soon
as possible. There was and could be
no excuse for delay, they said Moth
ing stood in the way of the passage OF
bill which would wipe out the Nc
Kinley law if Mr.. Cleveland would
only convene congress in special ses-
sion and give the democratic lawmak-
ers a chance.
These radical free trade organs in
sisted that the democrats knew exact
ly what they wanted. They had dis
cussed the proposed reform for years.
1t would not be necessary to even ap'
point ways and means committee tC
consider the bill. Just as soon as
congress met the bill would be ready
and it could be disposed Of in both
branches inside of month. Thai
was what the molder> Of democratic
opinion thought in the fall Of 1892
They assumed to believe that the dem
ocratic members of the Fifty-thirt
congress were being consumed by de
sire to lift the burdens of tariff taxa
ton" from the backs of the people.
Mr.. Cleveland did call a special ses
sion Of congress, but not for the pur
pose of considering tariff bill. The
subject of tariff reform was not ever
taken up at that session. The com
mittee on ways and means was ap
pointed, however, and it had sue
ceeded in formulating a bill before tn
regular session of congress convene'
in December. The work was done il
cellar by the light of dark lantern
It was entirely the work of southern
democrats. The republicans were no
permitted to assist in it's creation, an
the people who were interested in tn
subject were given but brief hearings

NOTES OF THE FASHIONS.
Timely Hints on What Is Being Worn by
Women,

A stylish and very becoming dress
has plain skirt in bell-shape with 8
draperv covering one side and the up
per portion of the front breadth. This
drapery and all the seams are trimmed
with a narrow fancy-woven gallOOn iD
black. The skirt material is dark-blue,
the waist is of black velvet with blue
collar and bands of velvet ribbon down
the fronts. The lego mutton sleeves
have deep cuffs of blue braided With
black. Shoulder ruffies of black lace
extend to the waist-line, back and
front.
The fashion for dressing the haii
seems to be tending toward concealing
the ears. Some of the new fashion
plates have the hair in a fluffy mass
that covers the ears altogether; Others
merely show the tips. The hair is much
more pu fed out than heretofore, and
the prediction Is made that any amount
of false hair will become necessary.
A stylish blouse is made on the old
time Norfolk plan, with wide, fiat
plaits There are bishops sleeves and
very wide revers of moire, a mOire
belt and collar with narrow galloor
trimming.
A round hat is trimmed with a but
terfly bow exactly in front. The effect
is somewhat peculiar, as the loops Ct
the bow at some distance resemble
ears.
Dresses of black and tan are all tht
rage. Black velvet with tan-coloreC
/ cloth, or vice versa, makes an exceed
inglv effective costume.
Waists of fancy silk, the fronts shirreC
in at the shoulders and waist-line, arr
worn with skirts in black and all col

AN EPIC ON THE TARIFF.
Prose Poem In Which the Trusts Don't
Feel Bad Prior to the Last Verse.

There is sorrow in the white house,
where the lights are dim and low; there
is grief up at the capitol where sad
eyed statesmen go; there is pain in the
committee rooms, where democrats sit
.glum, and the star-eyed goddess glow
ers as she frowns and bites her thumb;
there is weeping loud and wailing over
one poor tariff bill, and the democratic
cloak rooms are all silent, cold and
chill. Democrats who once were hap
py now are weary, sick and sad, but
nobody has discovered that the trusts
are feeling bad.
Once the house set out quite gayly to
draw up a tariff bill, and the demo-
Gratis assembled on the capitals high
| hill. Mr.. Wilson and McMillin and
the other democrats cut the duties
| down on diamonds, carpets, coal and
Persian cats; took the duty off of
sugar, slapped a higher one on rice,
tinkered with the tariff question till
they all felt gay and nice; sent the bill
on to the senate, happy DER their
work and glad. but they found some
| how or other that no trusts were feel
ing bad.
For the big trusts owned the senate,
owned it body, mind and soul, and
they put the tariff measure in
dusty pigeon hole. Then the trusts
drew up tariff that was just what
they desired, and the democratic sem
ate merely stood by and admired. The
republicans protested, but their pro-
tests were in vain, for the trusts
poured out their money as the clouds
pour out the rain. Even Vest anc
Mills were silent, though they showed
that they were mad" but nobody
could discover that the trusts were
feeling bad.
Sugar stock was bought up quickly
by the great mems sons and cooks, ant
some statements names were WRITER
secretly in brokers books. Scanda
grew so rife and ugly that the senate
in defense, even held Investigations
and protested innocence. In the mer
nv secret sessions" senators would
testify how they never speculated,
while each winked a rOguish eye
Each had mot bought stock nor sol'
it," though the public knew they had
, and the people grew indignant, but NJ
trust was feeling bad.
The People's friend., 1894-08-03

The democrats had everything their
own way, and yet it required about
three months to get that bill through
the house.
Then the measure went to the SEN
ate, where it was torn to pieces IN the
interests of the various trusts, which
demanded consideration. -Four hun
dred amendments were made to the
house bill, and it was finally passed,
after remaining in the hands OF the
se1ate more than four months. Now
the two branches of congress are
in a deadlock over the two bills. The
president has found it necessary to in
iect himself into the controversy, and
it is doubtful if the democrats will
succeed, after all, in agreeing upon
bill which will please all factions OF
the democratic party and all the special
and sectional interests which the dem
ocrats are inclined to favor,
From all this it appears to be PLAIN
that the democrats do not know what
they want. Furthermore, it is appar-
ent that they haven't much of an idea
what the tariff reform, about which
they have talked since 1884, is IKE.
People who had supposed that the de-
sire to smash protection represented a
fixed and settled democratic policy
will be compelled to admit that they
were mistaken. Present events at
Washington lead to the conclusion
that the democrats advocated tariff re-
form simply for the purpose Of array
ing one man against another and OF
winning votes for the democracy and
when they had won a victory upon
that issue they found themselves ut
terly unable to formulate and carry
out the policy they had advocated.
The democrats have succeeded IN
demonstrating their incapacity when
entrusted with power, and they have
fully proved that the democracy is
party of false pretenses. They have
accomplished nothing more.-Cleve
land Leader.

Then. in conference committee sat
the democrats at last, and the noises
of the conflict rivaled steam SIRENS
blast. All the democrats were quar-
reling, and the echoes of the fray
travelled up the cable car track to the
white house far away Members from
the house grew angry. Word came
from the president, but the senator's
responded that they didn't give
cent" Difficulties grew as many as
the bones in Taunton shad, but no
body could discover that the trusts
were feeling bad.
Democrats with wrath grew purple
and they even weep with grief. AT
the white house they hold counsel, but
cen there find no relief. Smeared
with scandal, gross and tainted is the
senate tariff bill, but the house is al
most ready to take down the bitter
pill. So the trusts are suavely patient
and await the certain end, for the
houses will is weaker and in time will
surely bend. So the house still chafes
and muttars and the president is sad,
but nobody has discovered that the
trusts are feeling bad.
Still, the peoples turn is coming
! and it will not be so long ere the trusts
that now are gleeful will discover
something wrong; for the ballot box
can even bend a stubborn senate's will,
and republicans will surely draw up
