WHAT QUINCY DID.

The more the Patent Office Gazette
contract is inquired into the blacker it
looks for Josiah Quincy. THE News
has already shown by his own testimony
that Mr.. Quincy obtained the contract
while he was assistant secretary of state;
that nearly the whole business was
transacted by Mr., Quincy alone; that
the man who figured as the nominal
head of the company favored by
Mr., Quincy was quite heavily indebted
TO the assistant secretary Of state and
now on Saturday Comptroller Bowler Of
the Treasury declared that
Josiah Quincy, who was then
assistant secretary Of state, called
upon him IN the matter Of pay
ment Of the claim Of the firm for whom
Quincy secured the contract. And Mr..
Bowler added that there might be an IL.

WHAT WILL HILL Do?

Ex-Governor Oliver Ames of Massa-
chusetts and ex-Governor =. G. Cheney
of New Hampshire are both men of in
telligence and keenness Of observation
Both have recently been in Washington
studying the position of Congress on the
tariff, and both have reached the same
conclusion that the Senate will not pass
the tariff bill.
The Senate has "A Democratic Sena-
tors, and with three vacancies in the
Republican ranks they can carry
any measure they desire on n full
party vote, even if the Populists,
as is very likely to be the
case, join with the Republicans
in their opposition to the tariff bill. 1t
would take, it is true, only two Demo
cratic votes to defeat the measure, and
it is equally true that there is good rea-
son for the belief that these two votes
may be forthcoming, and the reports
seem to indicate that the man who is
chiefly depended upon to assist in
killing the measure is David Bennett
Hill. 1t is curious state of affairs
that the present tariff muddle
presents, and it would indeed be a
strange revolution of the wheel Of
fortune il Senator Hill should be the
man to stand between the sacri-
fee Of American industries and
their preservation, and yet this
is very likely to be the case. His course
in the Senate has shown how closely he
keeps his ear to the ground. He
realizes more fully perhaps than any
other Democrat the revolt of the peo-
pie against this attempted assassination
of American industries and he realizes
that to pass the proposed tariff mons
trosity means the death blow of the
Democratic party. With his eyes fixed
on the chair now occupied by his
quondam friend, Cleveland, he is pecu-
liarly sensitive to the under current of
public opinion and he may decide to take
the step trusting TO the future to
prove the wisdom Of his course.
Tricky and unscrupulous as Hill un-
doubtedly is in politics, he is neverthe-
less far seeing and the nearest approach
to a statesman his party presents at the
present time. II Hill does place him
self on record as against measure
which, viewed in the light of his party
principles. is obnoxious and contrary to
Democratic pretensions, he will place
himself very much nearer the goal of
his ambitions than he possibly can by
voting with the other members of his
marty.

From an Authority on Books.

Victory was i'm the original model, but il
was never put on the actual building. That
shows that the photograph were not taken
Other books show staging about some of

Of tho buildings. The pictures in

country; but my multiple standard
covered seven-tenths of the customary
expenditures in mechanics family.
Ia 1850 such a man could purchase
9-i0 portions used in the multiple
standard in 1860, 8 lilo portions in
1865, under an inflated currency, 4 2. 10 F;
in 1873, the amount arose 10 1.2 por-
tions in 1890 TO 8 66-100 portions. and
1892 and 1893 TO portions"
That is, from 1850 to 1898 under the
protective system in tho United States
the conditions so improved that a mans
wages in 1898 would purchase almost
double what they could in 1850, or as
Mr.. Atkinson tersely remarks, "Condi-
tions which have made his life twice as
easy in 1890 as in 1865. and which make
him nearly twice as we'll off as he was in
1866, may we'll be maintained by him."
II the laboring man one year ago last
fall had known what he knows today he
would never have undertaken the
change, and it safe to say that he is
rapidly putting himself on record as
regretting with bitterness his foolish
ness at that time.
Mr.. Atkinson states that during this
period the percentage OF increase
has been: Population, 81 per cent;
postal receipts, 21s per cent; ap-
preparations for schools, 103 per cent;
increase in grain crop, 06 per cent;
debt diminished, per capita, 20
cent; increase of cotton, 1872 per cent;
and in conclusion he says: Low prices,
high wages, small profits, and low inter
est give evidence of vast progress in 20
years."
Mr.. Atkinson of course attributes
these desirable results TO the "gold
standard" but the fallacy Of this pro-
position readily presents itself to every
one. His facts, however, are incontro-
vertible, and are directly attributed
to the protective system. The money
standard has never been definitely and
accurately defined by the United States.
A single gold basis has
never been the declared policy of the
Government, but, on the other hand,
there has always been. speaking broadly,
an opposition to single standard. 1t
is equally true, however, that the single
and announced policy of the country
has been the principle of protection,
and under this system the development
of the country has been made,
and to it logically must be attributed
the success which has been achieved by
the nation during the time the system
has been in operation.

straightforward and Courageous.


The platform of the Republican party,
adopted In this weeks convention, Is plain,
straightforward. courageous. Its declaration
for the workingmen's protective tariff. Is
timely and convincing. Its insistence
upon sound currency, bimetallic
coinage and national bank system
rebukes the attempt of the Admini-
stration to impair or abolish them. IL con-
demns the trucking, servile, foreign policy Of
the Administration; denounces the law

One OF the Prominent Figures In the
Receut Parliament of Religions.

II was on the afternoon devoted TO the
discussion of foreign missionary methoos
at the Parliament of Religions that the
Rev. George T. Candlin made his nrst
address. Mr. Candlin is a missionary
from the United States who for many
years has lived &t Tientsin, West China,
where his work has been effective and
constant. He dresses in native Chinese
costume, believing that by SO doing he can
get nearer the hearts OF the people with
whom he must come in contact, better
securing their confidence, and obtaining
greater success In his work. His opinion
on these matters must be conceded To nave
great weight, for he has experience ana
success for his proofs. The speaker VINO
preceded him had attacked missionary
methods, and when DR.. -Capdlin rose 10
speak there was sparkle IN his
eve that told of O contradiction to
come to those charges OF in
torerance ana seinsnness. Ito made no
denial that there are reforms needed in
Christian missions and in the charac-
Ter OF work required. But he wished to
repudiate the personal remarks made in
regard to the missionaries in Japan,
Ceylon, and India. He declared that he
was no advocate OF forcing Western
modes OF life and social customs on the
or Anglicize the people Of those countries,
but neither did he want to be turned
into a Hindu or q Chinaman. "And,"
he said, al say this in regard to the
countries of India, Of Ceylon, and OF
Japan, that il there are no true Chris
tians and no meek and lowlyfollowers OF
the meek and lowly Jesus amongst them,
then there is not one in America, and
there is not one in England, and the
Christian world does not contain a true
Christian" He then followed with an
emphatic declaration that the real need
Of the Christian religion today is unity
between the denominations. He declared
IL impossible to produce n universal har-
mony from the united actions of
Christendom OF religious sects wrangling
about minor points OF doctrine.
This IL the handicap against which
ell missionary effort must be directed.
The effort TO proselyte from other faiths
into Christianity is continually meeting
the struggles OF inquiring ones as to why
their are so many Christian churches, and
In the maze OF doctrinal differences they
become bewildered, and remain in the
faith OF their fathers and their countries.
On another day the same speaker read
paper on the question OF Religious Unity
aud Missions" IL was in the same line
az his brief address OF the frst appear
ance, and awakened much interest and
wide approval. lie is q strong advocate OF
the substitution of the spiritual test
for the intellectual one, OF conversion
for orthodoxy. And again, on the last
day OF the Parliament, he expressed his
confidence in the ultimate triumph OF
that spirit, and the belief that this great
Congress at Chicago was an important
date I'm the movement. These addresses
are all included in full in "Neeley's His
tory Of the Parliament OF Religions"
