the cost Of their product must be cor

justice and fairness to the consumer
would demand that the manufacturers
be obliged to submit to such a readjust-

cure to the people the benefit of the re-
duced cost Of their manufacture and
shield the consumer against the exac-

Just and fearless regulation and reduc-
ton of the tariff

would carry to every humble home in

The millions of our countrymen who
have fought bravely and we'll for tariff
reform should be exhorted to continue
the struggle boldly, challenging to open
warfare and constantly guarding
against treachery and half heartedness

Tariff reform will not be settled until
it is honestly and fairly settled in the
interest and to the benefit Of patient

The Sage Fires Few Broadsides Into the
Populist Camp.
ST.. PAUL, Aug. 28.-Ignatius Don
nelly went on the warpath Monday
and poured several broadsides into the
Populistic fraternity they will not soon
forget. He came out with an open let
ter, in which he not only belabors the
state central committee, but digs into
Mr.. Ovens ribs. The sage throws the
''harpoon, as it were, to use vulgar
expression, and he throws it with vigor.
The supposed ':reason'' for the latter is
an attempt to down The Representative,
but it is really a splendid opportunity
for the beardless bard to tell few peo-
pie what he thinks of them. John l..
Mcdonald and Thomas Lucas are asked
to resign from the state central COM
mittee and demand is made on Mr..
Owens to publish a letter pledging him
self to serve out his term as governor
(if elected) and not become candidate
for United States senator-not that Mr..
Donnelly wants the Office, but for the
sake of the "many good men in our
party who are fit for the place.

IT'S ALAW NOW
Democratic Tariff Bill Goes
Into Effect Without CleVe-
lands Approval.
THE TEN-DAY LIMIT EXPIRES.
Thus Ends One Of the Longest
Parliamentary Struggles
in Our History.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.-At midnight
the Mckinley tariff law, which had
been in operation since Oct. 80, 1890,
practically four years, died on the
statute books, and the new Democratic
tariff bill, passed by the Fifty-third
congress, became law without the sig
nature Of President Cleveland. The
constitutional period of 10 days allowed
the president to consider the bill ex-
pired with the midnight hour, and,
according to the terms of the constitu-
ton, the president having failed to re-
turn the bill to congress with or with
out his approval, it became law. The
placing Of the bill upon the statute
books ended one Of the longest and
Most Remarkable Struggles
in the parliamentary history Of the gov
eminent. 1t was practically a year ago
that the compilation of the new tariff
was commenced. The extraordinary
session Of congress was called Aug. 7,
1898, for the purpose of repeating the
Sherman silver purchasing law. Two
weeks later the ways and means COM
mittee of the house, with Mr.. Wilson Of
West Virginia as chairman, was ap-
| pointed and almost Immediately the
work of framing the Democratic tariff
| reform measure began. Months were
spent in it's preparation and it was not
reported until after the holidays during
the regular session beginning in De-
cember. For three weeks it was
| Debated in the House,
passing that body Jan. 20 by vote Of
204 to 240. Seventeen house Democrats
voted against it. The bill went to the
senate, and after being considered until
March 20, was reported, greatly changed
from the house bill. The debate which
began in the senate April 2 lasted until
July 8 when the bill passed by a vote of
80 to "a. The crisis occurred when the
bill reached conference. On Aug. 10
the house yielded and accepted the SEN
ate bill in toto. Two days afterward,
Wednesday, Aug. Is, it went to the
president and at the expiration of the
constitutional 10 days Sundays not
counted) it became law without Mr..
Cleveland's approval.

NEW TREATY WITH JAPAN.
Great Britain Recognizes Her as q Full
Civilized Power.

Great Britain Recognizes Her q Fully
Civilized Power.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.-Japan has at
last succeeded in an object very dear to
her people and for which the govern
ment has striven with all it's arts of
diplomacy for many years. News has
been received here by the diplomatic
corps that a new treaty has just been
negotiated between Japan and Great
Britain by the terms of which the claim
Of extra territorial jurisdiction by the
latter is abandoned. Negotiations look
ing to the ratification of similar treaties
are going on between Japan and the
United States and other European ma
lions than Great Britain and it is as
sumed that they will now speedily fol-
low the example set by the latter and
fully recognize the right of Japan to adj
minister justice in her own territory.
The Importance of Great Britain's &C.
ton, which by the way rather tends to
discredit the stories that she is hostile
to Japan in her present war, lies in the
fact that it is really the recognition OF
Japan as fully civilized power.

was much more pronounced and refused
to yield to any treatment that could be
devised, and his death has been ex.
pected hourly.
