Any reputable young woman so I'M
fortunate as to bear the name of Pollard
will find it much pleasanter to remain at
home this year than to travel about and
be heralded as Madeline wherever she

self an object of unwelcome interest during
the journey; and on arrival at Chicago was
met by enterprising reporters who wanted
to talk to her about Breckenridge A Wash

he assumed that they were made in all
States where the trust had a refinery. as
they were made to the Democracy in New

The story comes from Washington that
$500. 900 was raised in Wales to secure the
lowest possible duty on tin plates. There
is no reason TO believe that any Congress-
man saw any OF the fund. but a powerful
lobby has been kept there under the direc-
ton Of one Trench, a foreigner, dealing in
tin plates in New York. 1t has been dis
covered that the new Senate rate of duty
on tin plates was known in Wales ten days
before it was known in this country The
circular which was sent the finance COM
mittee. and which is said to have influenced
that body. and purporting to have been
adopted at a meeting of the Tin-plate Con-
sumers' Association. was bogus. 1t demand
ed free tin plates, while the officers of the
association are opposed thereto. There is
no improbability in the story.

Primaries to elect delegates to the Demo
cratic township convention will be held to-
night, and they will probably be the quiet
est ever held in this city. so little is the in
terest taken and so faint the Democratic
hope. The convention will be held to-mor-
row night in Mozart Hall, recently occu-
pied by a pugilistic fiasco and conveniently
located above a saloon. The few candidates
are those who have had a taste of public
office and are willing to take chances on a
forlorn hope in order TO keep themselves
before the public. For trustee the only two
candidates are ex-Councilman Charles II.
Stuckmeyer. a butcher, and William Myers,
of North indianapolis. Myers until recently
has been in the county treasurer's office,
and was a candidate against Gold for the
nomination four years ago. Either John w.
Mcdonald, now a deputy in VOLTS Office.
or John w. DeBusk will be the nominee for
assessor. John Scanlon, a deputy In Record
err Donnelly's Office. was brought out yes
terday as a candidate. All the justices of
the peace want to be candidates again.
Newton j. Mechanics and Richard c. Ar

The speech of Senator Hill on the in
come tax bill yesterday is one which may
be read with interest and could be read
with profit. When he went into the Sem
ate he was about the last man who would
have been selected on his side Of the Sem
ate to take a stand against demagogy or
to oppose the caucus plans of his party.
since 1t must be said that he was not q
man to be admired in connection with the
Hill machine in New York. But 1t must
be admitted that he has carried himself
in a manner to command appreciation since
he got through defeating the Presidents
judicial appointments. While all other
Democratic Senators have been enmeshed
in the odious sugar scandal. Hill stands
without suspicion. While others have
bowed to the Southern demand for the in
come tax. which only the Populists de-
manded in 1894. under the excuse that sit
is good politics." Senator Hill has stood
out to argue against and denounce it as
a policy and to defy the element which
Senator Hills language in the speech of
yesterday Is not choice. except that ii is
happily chosen to describe the incongruous
leaders and elements which are Fastening
the Democracy to destruction. Thus far.
In all the dreary debate. Senator Hill is
the only man on the Democratic side who
has assumed a manly attitude. He will
get no praise from 1.-THE sources from
which it would naturally come. because
he is David B. Hill. If Mr.. Cleveland
should make a speech which could in any
respect be compared to that of Hill all
m~ugwumpery would be shouting his praises
and performing unseemly obeisance.
