THE SOLDIERS FOES.

The latest attempt Of the pension
haters to cut down the old soldiers
allowance by $15,OO0,0O0 is character
istic of the Democracy and not at all
unexpected. Mr.. Hoke Smith has not
been idle since he came into
possession of his present position. In
more ways than one he has manifested
his hatred for the Union soldiers. He
has lost no opportunity to villify them
and to make their last days on earth as
uncomfortable as possible.
Hokeism has made its appearance
just when the old soldier needs most
fostering care of the government.
He is less able today than ever,
owing to increasing years, to
care for himself. On the verge
of the grave the enemies of the cause
for which he fought attempt to knock
the supports from under him. 1t is in
human, but it is not unexpected.
Grover and his party are running the
government now.

What, an error to vote for free raw

early as possible in order to relieve the
manufacturers from the crushing weight
Of an unjust tariff tax?
But this is not surprising.

to an income tax, to the Wilson bill, to

simply clings with the energy born of a
hopeless despair to the one cry of David

RECIPROCITY ABANDONED.

The House has repealed the reciprocity
provisions of the Mckinley bill. Could
Democratic stupidity go further? In
the insane desire to destroy every vestige
of Republican legislation the Democracy
overturns the work of years and places
the United States in a most humiliating
position. Mr.. Blaine's plan of recipro-
city was the grandest and most progress
sive step forward in the statesman
ship of this country that has
been taken in. half century.
II opened up to us new markets and our
export trade largely increased under
its provisions. BY making free
entry for certain foreign products into
the United States depend upon
the free admission of our
products into the countries with whom
these reciprocity treaties wee negotia-
ted we were enabled to get into markets
previously closed to us, much to
the dismay of our European
rivals who saw themselves being shut
out of markets they had hitherto con-
trolled. Repeating these laws we lose
our advantage and will close those ma
tions against our goods.

THE TELEGRAMs DILEMMA.

The Telegram, like many other Dem.
ocratic papers, is rapidly swinging away
from its former party, and is denounc-
ing principles to which it has hitherto
yielded the most implicit fealty.
Its illusions 10 the Wilson bill are far
from flattering 10 the believers in that
composite measure. and the true Demo
cratic principle of free trade receives no
support Whatever from the Democracy's
organ in this city. The Telegram, like
General Hancock, considers the tariff q
local issue apparently, and it does not
propose to advocate any policy that
might affect its own pocket-book, not IL
il knows itself. Hence one can under
stand its allusion 10 the action Of the
Republican members of Congress who
voted TO have the woolen schedule take

buke, but it was unfortunately deserved,

the treasury department. of the
United States make public proposals
for loan at high rate OF
interest that have not as yet secured
takers. Mr.. Carlisle has been taught
that while the administration may re-
gard with impunity the violation OF the
laws, the financial world has very diff
ferent views of such proposed violation.
The friends of the administration may
come to its relief in the hope of political
reward, but Mr.. Carlisle will find few
genuine bidders attracted by any such
proposals as those made to the New York
bankers yesterday.

CHEAP LITTERATEURS.

Quite unexpectedly Mrs. Lily Langtry
informs the public that she has dropped
casually, of course) into authorship,
not as a means OF sup
port, but on the principle of the
family who took in boarders for their
company. Mrs. Langtry achieved con-
siderable notoriety as the Helen of Lon
don society, but it seems that this was
not enough. She pines after fame of
more enduring sort and she will pro-
badly get it.
The profession of letters is becoming
the loafing place Of nearly every class
of people who desire the emoluments
that belong to true literary career, but
who depend upon some pre-
viously achieved notoriety to give
them prestige in profession for which
nature has not fitted them. Several
men of society who have never been
famous for anything except the cut of
their coats and the starchiness
of their collars and cuffs, have
broken forth unexpectedly and
unbidden into food of lyrics. sonnets
and dramatic effusions, painful to the
critic but considered by their author the
children OF mighty genius. The delu-
sion would be harmless and innocent
enough were it allowed to flicker and
die in the thick atmosphere of public
disregard. But in comes the
critic, hired for the purpose, and
fans the feeble flame into brilliant
blaze of notoriety which is most profit
able in the end for the alleged litera-
teur.
The literary talent that abides in a
pair of patent leather shoes may have its
charms for certain class of readers,
but it is sorrowful sight
for such to set themselves up
for critics and attempt to sandbag the
public into the idea that 1t is reading
really good matter. The public knows
better, but a thousand years later re.
viewers of the nineteenth century, con
fused by these same criticisms, may
point to our Langtrys, our McAllisters
and others of their kind as the best re-
preventative talent the age could afford.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
Striking at the North and East.

New York Press.
That New York newspaper which is re-
garded as the special organ of the White
House, and which has declared in its col
ums that SO called tariff reform must
come, even il ruin should follow, makes
the following striking confession regard
ing the Wilson fraudulent free trade bill
The whole theory Of many OF the Western aHd
Southern is that the tarid bill is not collec
tion OF compromises sacrifices, but OF revenges,
that the West and South can find in IL opportuni-
ties to avenge past defeats and other grievances
upon the North and East
The above statement is unquestionably
true, but no truer than when the fraud
ulent ad valorem free trade bill was first
presented to Congress. Had such a state
ment been made in The Press it would
doubtless have been denounced by the
Mugwumps as untrue, but made by their
leading daily organ, the acknowledged
mouthpiece of the President, they will
probably not question its correctness. But
for the spirit OF revenge, the desire and
purpose to injure and punish the North,
the Wilson bill fraud would never have
been framed or introduced, because it
would never have had chance of being
enacted. Every clause of the bill breathes
a purpose to crush the industries which
have fiourished especially in the North,
even although in striking the blow other
sections OF the country have also tosuffer.
And yet Northern Congressman are ex-
pected, and some OF them intend, to vote
for this bill, admitted by the highest
Mugwump authority to be vengefully and
maliciously aimed at the welfare and pros
perityIof the section they represent.

BOYS AND GIRLS EAT
QUAKER OATS

ernor is in sympathy with THE News
aud the business men of the
city in their desire to obtain
better railroad facilities for the resi-
dents of the eastern shore. He says,
"There seems to be no good reason why
why an attempt should not be
made TO furnish the relief
needed by utilizing the tracks at grade
along South Water street, with steam
or electricity as motive power"
He also directs attention to the import
ant relation our harbor facilities bear to
the railroad problem, and asks that a
commission be appointed to consider the
matter.
Desirable recommendations are made
with regard to the organization and
conduct of the militia and the various
churches, institutions aud commissions
of the state receive a share
of the executive attention.
Under the subject of election laws,
changes in the form of ballots, regula-
tion of the duties of supervisors and
canvassers of voting lists, improvement
of the registration system, are recon-
mended, as we'll as an amendment to
the law which now compels foreign born
citizens to produce their natur alization
papers annually before registering.
Amendments to the constitution pro-
viding for non-partisan counting board
in place of the grand committee, bien-
nial elections and veto power
for the Governor, are such
as appeal to common sense
and experience. If the biennial amend
ment were offered again it would
probably be adopted. The question of
woman's suffrage is recognized and
commended as deserving of statesman
like attention.
The message is business document
from business man who has clear
perception of the obligations of his Office
and the needs Of his state. 1t is marked
by spirit of liberality and progress
and cannot fail 20 command respectful
consideration and commendation even
from those who may not agree with
all that it suggests. The NEWS con-
graduates Governor Brown upon the ex-
cellency of his recommendations and
trusts that he may be rewarded by see-
ing goodly portion of them embodied
into law while he continues to preside e
over the destinies of the state. We are
sure that his courteous but firm attitude
in regard to the present legislative diff
ficulties, will be especially commended
by every good citizen.
