ing action. Senator Hawley is authority
for the statement that there will be no
f~actious opposition TO the bill on the
part Of the republicans OF the senate
that IL will be considered, discussed and
all parts OF il which are In contravention
of sound protective principles Will be
~strenuously opposed a long as opposi-
tion will avail. Tho Philadelphia
Ledger, which is unqualihcdly opposed
TO the Wilson bill, makes this sugges-
tion as to the duty Of the repub-
Leans: "They should defeat 1t out
right IL in righteous, sogacious support
Of the wholesome principle OF protec'
tion they can do 1t, but II 1t should be
perceived hat its defeat Is impossible
they should, after proper effort to re-
duce the evils OF 1t to the minimum,
resort to no mere f%actious opposi-
tion and use no obstructive tao
tics merely to secure Intellectual delay
and thus prolong the period of disturb
ing doubt and fears" 1t is not ques-
tionable hat this is the view OF the In
t~elligent and conservative republicans
Of the country. 1t is not desired
that the republicans in congress
should surrender a single prin-
ciple of the protective policy, the
wisdom OF which has been vindi-
Gated by results, or that they shall
forego any opportunity to correct the
faults of the democratic tariff bill. The
interests concerned expect them to do
their whole duty in exposing the errors
and the evils of this measure. But the
industrial and commercial welfare re-
qulres that the great strain to which
the industries and the business OF the
country have beer so long subjected
shall be relaxed as soon as possible
all interests be relieved from the de-
preston which now hangs heavily upon
them, to the serious injury of all. Re-
publicans everywhere desire the defeat
of the proposed new tariff policy, but il
this cannot be accomplished without
recourse to methods which republicans
would condemn il practiced by their OPP
ponents, hen let the party in power
have it's way and take the responsibility.

RATUER FApgNsIvg HEATING.

The disclosures made by THE BEE
with reference to tho consumption and
prices OF coal used in the charitable and
reformatory institutions Of Nebraska
must have opened the eyes Of the people
to the extravaganza and loose manage
ment, not to use a stronger term, OF
Theses institutions. Figures have been
gathered showing the number OF
tons OF coal consumed for heat
ing and lighting the state build
ings, tho prices paid for the same,
and the amount of air space for which
tho fuel was employed. These figures
have been tabulated so as to show at q
glance the relative cost OF heating and
lighting these institutions for the periods
under question, and they have been
compared with tho data showing the
corresponding items in the cost OF heat
ing and lighting the city hall and the
two largest office buildings OF Omaha.
That table Is as follows:

REpUsLIC1NS AND TINE TARIFF.

The republicans in congress propose
to make a vigorous fight against the new
tariff bill. This was fo~reshadowed in
the report of the minority of the ways
and means committee. They will insist
on a full and thorough discussion of the
measure, and will undoubtedly propose
amendments to every schedule. So far
as the house of representatives is con
cerned tho republicans will probably not
be permitted to carry discussion as far
as they may desire. 1t is understood to
be the purpose of the democrats to pass
the bill by the end of the present month
and it is not doubted that they can
do this, Some opposition to the
measure will come from demo-
Gratis, but it will not be so
strong as to prevent, with the aid of
the republicans, the adoption of a rule
putting IA limit upon debate and fixing
the time when n vote on the bill shall be
taken. There is unique 'tionably a large
majority Of the democrats in the house
favorable to tho measure as reported,
and while they may assent to some
CHdnBes ushcu loT ny meulDcTS vi tnelr
own party they will not permit an in
definite fight over the bill. Doubtless
the leaders have already decided upon
the course to be pursued in the CON
sideration of the measure and it is
pretty safe to predict that not more
than four weeks will be allowed by the
house for discussion.
1t is in the senate that the republicans
will have the privilege of ~prolonging
discussion al their pleasure and un-
doubtedly tho bill will receive a much
more extended consideration in that
body than in the house, 1t is the under
standing, however, that there will be no
resort to obstructive tactics or flibus-
tering for the purpose of unduly delay
Omaha daily bee., 1894-01-03

There was never such an opportunity pre-
scented to a body OF men as to the ways and
means committee of the house OF representa-
tives. They failed to rise to 1t.
In the genius of our government the SEN
ate is the great balance wheel thai holds
the machinery of the nation in steady mo-
ton. 1t is To be hoped that the finance COM
mittee of the senate will comprehend in Its
fullest degree the necessity of amending tho
Wilson bill, or providing n new one that will
be fair 10 all the industries OF the country;
that will have q line of logic running
through it so strong for revenue and Incl
dental protection that many fair-minded
men, both democrats and republicans, will
come forward and support it.

MASTER WORKMAN SOVEREIGN has
placed himself on record in favor of u
federal income tax, provided the lower
limit of taxable incomes be made not
less than S., 1000. He suggests that such
a tax would be most popular with the
working classes. Tho working classes
expect to contribute their shares toward
the expenses of governments; they are
unwilling to contribute more than their
shares, but will hardly contend that
they ought not to contribute at all.
There is no more reason Tor exempting
Is, 900 of income from taxation than for
exempting $25, 900.

A careful study Of this table will con-

A careful study OF this table will con-
vince every person open to conviction
not only that the state institutions have
been conducted at an immense disad-
vantage in comparison with these large
buildings at Omaha, but also that they
display inexplicable differences among
themselves. In not one of them is the
cost Of fuel for each 1000 feet of cubic
contents ever within reaching distance
OF the cost for the same in The BEE
building. where the boilers supply not
only steam for heating the entire
structure. but also the electric lighting,
the electric motor power, the power for
the elevators running day and night
and the power for all the stereotyping
and printing machinery necessary for a
great daily newspaper.
1t is to be noticed, too, that the
institution making the worst show
ing of all in this investigation
is the one that has been only
recently making the loudest noise
about it's economical management and
one in which the immediate supervision
is IN the hands of others than state Of
ticials. This is the Home for the
Friendless at Lincoln, whore the cost of
fuel for each 900 cubic feet of contents
during the period compared Is the enor-
nous sum of 1856. This is owing to
the insistence of its managers on using
both an eXtravagant and wasteful
amount of coal and coal commanding a
II Il 1. A. ,,N,a1- thar chat
paid by any other of the state institu-
tions. Many of the latter give almost
equally unenviable results, while none
of them have much reason to feel proud
over their showing for economy in the
use of fuel.
1t is evident that the officials in charge
of the various state institutions ask the
legislature for as large an appropriation
for fuel as they dare and see to it that
all the money at their disposal is ex-
pended. Nor do they hesitate to bring
in deficiency claims in spite of the ex-
travagantly high appropriations which
they have sQuandered. The appropria-
tions for fuel for the institutions en-
braced in the table here given for the
year 1893 foot up nearly $4,000. Were
the estimates based upon what is really
needed and were the money expended
for coal at reasonable prices and the
coal consumed in reasonable quantities,
this appropriation alone could be cut
down more than onc-third. There is
absolutely no reason why the very same
coal should cost the Home for the Friend
less at Lincoln $6.49 per ton and the
State Insane asylum in the same city
only 1920 per ton; nor why the same
coal should cost the state So per ton at
Hastings, $3.8 at Norfolk, So, 10 at Lin
coin and 1929 at Genoa. Buying the
supplies for all state institutions on one
contract would give q uniformly low
price for each and every one of them.
There must be something wrong about
these enormous coal bills for state in
situations,

Our Fleet at Rio.
nln-IIh. ~

The cruiser New York having sailed for
Rio Janeiro, the secretary of the navy has
ordered the monitor Miantonomah to pro-
coed to Trinidad, and, it is believed, ulti-
mately to Rio. A strong showing of modern
fighting crafts of the United States in Bra
lillian waters is expected to have a whole
some effect, not only for the protection of
American interests, but as an object lesson
to the other powers represented at Rio. The
new American navy has been remarkably
successful, although it has not had the test
of warfare, ana, ali things considered, its de-
velopment has been a distinct triumph for
American ideas and workmanship. Should
the Miantonomah go to Rio she will vie with
the New York as an object of interesting
New York as one of the ablest cruisers
afoat, and the monitor as one of a unique as
well as excellent pattern.
