W WILL NOT PARADE.

The Hudson County Schwabischer Verein
held a special meeting last evening at Kraus'
hotel on Ocean avenue, Greenville, to ar
n the details for the Labor Day fest at
Schuetzen Park. The Coinmittee of Ar
rangements reported that the young ladies
who viii axe part in the dramatic enter
tainment have been rehearsing faithfully
during the past two weeks and have reached
a degree of proficiency which assures a fine
performance. The parade, the feature Of
the fest last year, will not be repeated this
wear because the members of the verein
feared that the wagons might collide with
the trolley cars and that the lives of the
children would be endangered. The gayly
decorated wagons will be missed by the resi-
dents Of Greenville, but the Schwabs
promise to atone for the absence of the
parade by having extra attractions at the
park. Just what these attractions Will pc

Tie President aud the Tariff Bill.

Tie Pfesi1eMt ANu lne 9TH Diis
The Philadelphia Press" this morning
accuses President Cleveland Of running
away from the tariff bill. This would
be amusing if it were not outrageous.
If old Grover has any one quality more
clearly developed than another, it is
courage. He has been a figure of Ma
tiona prominence now since 1882. He
had A public career of considerable
activity previous to that time. 1t is not
possible for any man to show the occa-
sion in all that long time when he was
afraid to do or say anything he wanted
to do or say
To accuse him of moral cowardice now
is a wanton and gratuitous insult. 1t Is
to ignore his whole history and every
feature of his character as divulged
therein. No candid person can doubt but
the President will sign the tariff bill or
veto it lust as he chooses, or let it go
by default if he thinks that best. You
may question his wisdom or his motives
If you like, but it is simply ridiculous
to doubt his fearlessness
There are many good reasons why the
President should allow the bill to become
law without signing it. Considering the
way il passed by the active movement
of his own adherents in the House, con-
sidering the popular acclaim that has
hailed it's passage, considering the un-
questionable need of the country for a
settlement of the question, and consid-
ering the definite, even though limited
improvements which the bill makes in
our revenue system, it would hardly be
right or proper for the President to veto
II because it falls short of his ideas. On
the contrary, as it is far from being
what he thinks a tariff reform bill ought
IN be as If more or less violates some of
his firmly held principles, he can hardly
sign it with cordial or complete approval
The middle course of allowing it to be-
come law by lapse of time seems to
reconcile the two difficulties. And yet
so great is our belief in the Presidents
aggressive courage, that we believe he
viii sign it and at the same time de-
clare his displeasure at its shortcom-

The Trenton Pottery Blum.

The talk of the Trenton trust potters
,ount of the reduction in the tariff is
IN absurd bluff. The bosses have no idea
whatever of doing it, and. indeed, we do
not believe they will even attempt to
reduce wages. With S5 and 80 per cent.
protection on painted and plain wares
respectively, they can afford to pay the
wage scale as reduced by Senator Smiths
intervention, and still declare large divi-
aends. The tariff remains a larger bur
len on imported ware than the entire
labor cost of domestic pottery, and sure
ly nothing more could be required to give
the Trust every advantage in the market
if its produSts are fit for use.
If the Trust should attempt a shut
down or precipitate a strike at this time,
the results would be disastrous to itself.
During the recent prolonged strike, its
accumulated stock was pretty well sold
out. If there were another check to the
output, there would be no resource from
which to supply customers. Then the i'm
porters would indeed have a rich market,
and probably Independent potteries would
at once be started. The Trust cannot for
a moment slacken its grip on the trade.
If it does, it will certainly bring disaster
upon itself.
AS a practical criticism on the calamity
bowling which this pampered monopoly
has inflicted upon the people, attention
may well be given to the following news
item, found in yesterdays United Press
dispatches and printed in 1.-The Jersey
City News
