Chicago? Did it deliberately seek votes
on the false pretence that it was in
favor of tariff for revenue only? Or
has it become convinced since it made
that declaration THAI revenue system
would be so destructive to Four indus
tries that it dares not put the policy into
practice? Has the business depression,
the closing up of manufacturing estab-
lishments at their threat of free trade
taught them something? If the case is
one of deliberate deception then the
party merits nothing but contempt. If
it is a case of party held back by the
discovery that it has been advocating
policy that wouldkbe destructive in it's
effects the decent thing for the party to
do is to step up and say so, Ito confess
that all it's fine theories about
the prosperity which free trade
would bring to the workingman
were erroneous, and that the doctrine
of protection which it has denounced for
many years past furnishes the only sure
foundation for revival and continuance
Of the country's prosperity. The party
has got to take one or the other horn of
this di!emma-unless it is going to place
itself in the humiliating position of adj
hitting that it is so feeble concern that
its chosen representatives do not hesitate
to betray it before It's very face and eyes.

THE FERRIS WHEEL.
Cost of Taking 1t Down and Carrying It
to New York.

Preliminary work incident to taking
down the Ferris Wheel on the Midway
Plaisance was begun yesterday This
consists of placing false work, engines
and hosting apparatus. Some day next
week the big wheel will turn for the last
time in Chicago. At that time several
Ferris Wheel Company officials will ride
round on the struts that are still il place.
Some will simply hold to the tsn-inch
iron beams, while others, more timid,
will be tied on.
1t will take ten weeks to take the
wheel to pieces. The car that was used
for carrying the Krupp gun will be used
for the seventy-ton axle. The material
will be taken in five trains of thirty
cars each to New York city. There are
5000 tons of metal in the wheel and
500, 900 feet of timber is needed for the
false work. Taking the wheel down
will be more dangerous than putting il
up. Only one life was lost in erecting
the big attraction.
The expense of taking down, moving
and rebuilding the wheel will be 81 so. Oo1
In New. York it is to be placed at Thirty
seventh street and Broadway. Old Vienna
will be reproduced around it. Here the
wheel had 5000 electric lights; in New
York the number will be doubled. The
old Ferris Wheel Company goes out OF
existence and new company, composed
of New York men, has been formed.
Superintendent l.. V. Rice has charge oil
the removal.
During the fair the wheel went around
10000 times, and carried 1900, 900 pass.

Confronted, as we are by the attempt OF the
Democratic party in Congress to destroy the
industries to PROSTATE the agricultur al inter-

the protective tariff who belive in sound and
honest currency in free popular education; IN

promotion of the cause of temperance; in just

The question of the constitutionality
of the collateral inheritance law of
Massachusetts, is before the Supreme
Court of that State for decision. The
argument against the unconstitutional
ity of the law was made by the Hon. W.
G. Russell and Mr.. Jabez Fox, who urged
these four points:
/. The right Of succession is neces-
sary incident of that property" which
is protected by our constitution.
2. The tax upon the SUGGESTIONS in
question is in effect tax upon the
property to which the right of succession
is incident, and is, therefore. subject to
the constitutional limitations of the
property tax.
right of all mankind. and cannot be
deemed, therefore, a privilege or "com-
modify" within the meaning OIL. the con-
stitution.
A.. Even as tax upon "conmodity"
or privilege, the tax III question is un-
equal in its operation, in that it makes
arbitrary and personal distinctions be-
tween.those who are and those who are
not subject to the tax, and because
the tax is not imposed in proportion to
the extent to which the privilege is ex-
ercised.
The decision of the court will be
looked for with interest not only in
Massachusetts but in other States as
well The collateral inheritance tax has
been adopted by many States, including
Maine, and the decision of the Massa-
chusetts court will have important in
fuence in deciding the fate of this
method of raising revenue in other
States as we'll as in Massachusetts. The
Importance attached to the question is
indicated by the fact that every member
of the Massachusetts court was present
at the hearing.

The suggestion of Chief Arthur of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
that Congress CT cate a national board OF
road disputes is one of dou btful expedi-
ency. Such board must necessarily be
advisory merely, without power to en-
force it's DEGREES, for no board can COM
pei men to work for wages that they do
not. deem satisfactory or corporations
to pay wages which they do not want to.
The board might legally be empowered
to inquire into the merits of the case,
and the parties to the dispute be COM
PEELED to testify before them. Possibly
in some cases good results might follow
from this, inasmuch as the public would

of wrongs that appeared to exist. But
only on rare occasions would
it be so evident where the blame
rested that the public would have but
board that would not carry great weight.
The side against which it decided would
allege prejudice and partially, and thus
be able to discredit it with part Of the
public. Furthermore it would be about
impossible to select a board that would
command the confidence of both sides of
labor disputes. Whenever there Is dis
position to settle labor disputes by arbi-
tration board Of arbitrators can be Sc
lected by the parties which will be
much more satisfactory and whose de-
cision will command much more conf
dence than a board appointed by the
national government, the selection of the
members of which would become smore
or less political, and be affected by a
great many considerations not germane
to the question which they are to settle
Where the disposition does not exist NO
effective arbitration is likely for the
simple reason that there is no way to
compel the disputants to accept the re-
suits without depriving them of their
freedom. Arbitration is essentially a
voluntary act. When it is made COM
pulsory it becomes essentially coercion,
and the coercion of board of arbitra-
tors upon strikers would be no more
palatable than the coercion of the copora-
ton or individual with whom they
were disputing.

The principal line of demarcation be-

ayradical difference of opinion. The Re-

deem its pledges. Yet the German tariff
bill is admittedly measure in which
the protective policy is as prominent as
in the Mckinley bill. Its difference from
the Mckinley bill is merely difference

not pretended that the German bill is
