Defeat the ANOMALY.

Four hundred amendments to the tariff
bill already and yet few days ago Demo
cratic senators declared they were willing
then to come to vote on the Wilson bill.
Such cheap "bluiiins" by these men ap-
plies equally well in description of the bill
they now present. The administration
thought to pass thel Wilson bill by sp-
pealing to the free traders of the country
on the ground that it was not framed on the
principle Of protection; also by throwing in
a good deal of favoritism for Southern in
terests and trusts. The Northern
Democrats demanded recognition. They
were in position to enforce their de-
mands. The situation became desperate.
The country was suffering and yet for po-
litical clap trap these so-called politicians
thought they must effect some change
ia the tariff whether that change represented
any principle or not. A compromise has
been reached for Just this purpose. 1t
bears in no respect the mark or shadow of
principle or economic theory. While the
amendments appear to partially relieve some
industries from threatened danger these
changes were not made because the men in
charge of the measure looked carefully
. or intelligently to Il e needs of those indus
tries. They have given no hearings, they
know no more about the needs of the va
ri,us interests than they dill when they in

An American manufacturer, largely in
terested in our West Indian trade, has
compiled table of figures showing
rather wildly what he and his fellow
manufacturers will have to pay for the
luxury of our Democratic congress in the
single'line of decreased exports to Gu ba
The Wilson bill, as is well known, ex-
pressly provides for the overthrow of the
triumphant Republican policy of reci-
procity by reimposing a duty on raw
sugar. Since the Mckinley tariff went
into effect, and reciprocity arrangements
were negotiated under it, not only have
our shipments of wheat, -four, lard and
provisions to Cuba enormously increased,
but there has been an immense gain in
our shipments of manufactured articles.
The increase is represented in these COM
parative figures:

The first column shows the normal
capacity of the Cuban market for Ameri-
can goods without reciprocity; the second,
it's capacity with reciprocity, and the
consequent reduced duties on merchan-
disc imported from America. The differ
ence between the two columns is the sum
which our manufacturers and merchants
will have to pay in one line of business
for the Democratic victory in November,
1892 Nothing can be more certain than
that the moment the sugar duty is re-
vived the reciprocity agreement will be
abrogated by the Spanish government
Spain will be glad of a pretext for the de-
struction of hated policy which has
lessened her own trade with Cuba, and
made her richest colony commercial de-
tendency of the United States.
Free trade is like two-edged sword
While on the one side it deprves our
manufacturers of their great home mar
ket, on the other it cuts off that share of
the foreign market which they have Sc
cured by years of persistent effort aided
by a stroke of brilliant diplomacy. And
what are our manufacturers promised in
exchange for it? Why, an inquisitorial
and odious income tax, and a chance to
fight for an extension of businessin Euro
pean countries which of themselves pro-
duce "a surplus of manufactures, and in
addition most of them are hedged about
by hostile tariffs quite as exclusive as any
Mckinley legislation.
American citizens are exhorted to ap-
plaud all this as craftsmanship; it comes
far nearer to being downright lunacy.-

A school war between two districts as to
which one should have the teacher, has
been one of the exciting events in Bethel
this spring. Numerous verbal battles were
waged, but all to no purpose. At last rep
resentatives from the warning districts came
before committee and presented their
claims. Voters ia the upper district,
or No. 5, wanted teacher in
their vicinity because one more schol-
ar was registered there; those in the
lower or No. 20, thought as the scholars
in their section were smaller and as the up
per had been favored with a session for
some time, it was nothing more than right
that the existing affairs should be changed.
After due consideration of the evidence
given, the committee decided that No. 30
should have the case.

A laboring man. whose name is uD-

pital last night in an uncons cious condi-
ton. The base of his skull was fractured
and the chances are that he will not live
many hours.
He went into Mrs. Jenkins restaurant
on Twenty eighth and Mission streets
about z O'clock last night and ordered a
plate of ham and eggs and a bottle of
wine. He was considerably under the in
fuence of liquor and before the meal was
served to him he rose from his seat and
asked to- be directed to Twenty-sixth
street.. Then he staggered ont.
