ANOTHER RLUNDER.

And now comes n new kink in the tariff
bill. Everybody has supposed that all
goods in bond would be subject to the
new tariff when once passed. Public at
tention was called TO the matter while
the bill was pending, aud it il said that
Senator Aldrich and some Of the treasury
experts called the attention Of the finance
committee TO the matter while the bill
was in the Senate. The theory suggested
is that distinction was made between
imports subject TO a change in duties
and TO those on the free list.
The language OF the bill il said to he
that call articles imported from foreign
countries or Withdrawn for cOnsump.
ton shall pay such and such duties,
but the italicized words are omitted in
the section relating to the free list. The
language in that class OF clses ". "the
following articles when imported shall
be exempt from duties" and not when
imported or withdrawn from consump-
ton, distinction with difference.
The Inter Ocean sees herein no benefit
TO any one. The government will get no
additional revenue, the domestic pro.
ducers no protection. The owners OF
these goods, il the theory proves to be
correct, will be put to the expense Of ex-
portation and reimportation. That is
about all there will he To it. Oirwool
growers, lumbermen, etc, need apect no
relief from the operation OF that stupid
blunder.

OF them more serious probably, will he

ODDITIES or THE SENATE TARIFF

IL may be interesting To note n few
pcculiarities oi the Senate tariff bill IL
IL measure sufficiently protective in
character, says the Inter Ocean, to be
fatty contradictory OF the Chicago plat
forms declaration:
We declare Il 10 be fundamental principle %
the Democratic party that the federal govern.
ment has NO constitutional power 20 enforce
and collect tariff duties except Tor purposes of
revenue only.
IL IL, ms Senator Lodge well says, n

THE RECORD OF A SESSION.

The long session OF the Fiity-third
congress may be regarded IA ended. The
two houses will doubtless linger along
until the tariff bill has become u law, or
has been vetoed, and then will dissolve,
without standing on the order oil their
going. II we take into account the spec
ial session from Aug. z TO November i,
1893, which, for practical purposes may
be regarded as part Of the long session,
10 has been one OF the longest sessions in
the history Of congress twenty
days OF an entire year.
Congress- assembled with Democratic
majority and Democratic president IN
the White House, Tor the first time since
the spring OF lS6l-a third OF "A century.
IL assembled after thirty years OF criti-
oisrn and denunciation OF the Republican
party and Republican legislation, to ex.
hibit To the country what the Democrat.
Is party would do when il had the power.
The extra ordinary session was called Tor
the express purpose OF repeating the pur.
chase clause Of the Sherman act. la
three weeks IL had passed. the house 10y n
non-party vote. and the great majority
of 131. On Aug. 80 the Voorhees, sub
stitute waa taken up in thu senate, and
one Of the most remarkable contests
ever Witnessed in that body was inaug.
urated. IL was found that majority
Of the Democratic senator's was opposed
TO the repeal.
The senator's from the silver states
reinforced and encouraged 10y many
southern and western Democratic sena.
tors, reduced the struggle 20 one OF phys
Teal endurance, and Mr.. Voorhees, and
his colleagues, who were for the repeal
succumbed. A compromise was agreed
upon; but the president put his foot
upon IL and once more summoned his
friends 10 renew and continue the fight
for unconditional repeal. On October
no the collapse came. and the repeal bill
passed the senate by the vote Of the Re
publican senators, the Democratic votes
being nearly equally divided.
This was the first great administration
measure. but passed by the opponents oI
the administration.
During the special session the commit
tees had been organized, and especially
the ways and means committee had
been steadily at work preparing tariff
ball that should redeem Democratic
pledges.
This was expected 10 he an epoch. We
were TO have what We havonot had since
1857. = genuine, Democratic, revenue
only tariff law. The iates were propi
tious. There was the house with IL
sighsy-eight Democratic majority, with
out counting the eleven populist allies
always ready 10 assist. There was the
senate with fortyiour Democrats seua
tors. and only thirty eight Republicans
counting Stewart, Of Nevada, who, says
The diamond drill. (Crystal Falls, Iron County, Mich.) 1887-1996, 1894-08-25

is capable OF indefinite extension under
liberal system OF protection.
The trivial industry OF the manulac-
ture Of acetic acid receives increased
protection OF more than fiIty-one per
cent. But the great industry OF nail
making suffers reductions varying from
four TO forty-six per cent, according To
size and quality OF the articles made.
The limited trade Of preparing cnndied
lemon peel receives increased protection.
The great manufactures OF wool are
given less protection.
Increased protection seems TO be given
wherever a trade il Of such nature as TO
bc incapable Of extension in consequence
OF protection, and protection is decreased
in or wholly withdrawn from every
trade OF which il has been proven that
protection stimulates production-ex-
cepting always trades that are controlled
by trusts
A strange instance OF increasing n duty
upon what does not need protection Is
found in schedule c. Hogs, which we ex-
port immensely, and which we import
but slightly. and then only for breeding
purposes, gain increase OF 66.25 per
cent protection. Breeding animals ought
To come in free. An equally strange in
stance OF decreasing protection upon
what needs protection is found in the
same schedule. The duty on horses,
which now are selling Mt prices that do
not pay for raising them. and with which
we easily may be flooded from Canada
and Mexico, is reduced by considerably
more than thirty per cent.
Among the most glaring absurdities oil
the bill are the clauses that increase the
duty on raw sugar by nearly 100 pei
cent, aud that decrease the duty ON
sugar candy by about seventy per cent
Very strange also are the clauses that
reduce the wheat flour duty by twenty
per cent, and increase the rye duty by
304 90 per cont.
In short, the more carefully one reads
the Senate tariff bill, the more amazed
is lac by the perversity OF its humor

A woman Garbage Inspector.

An interesting development of wom-
ans growth in affairs Ii exempliied by
the recent appointment OF a woman for
garbage inspector inSC Chicago. She re-
ceived this distinction through the 30
licitation of the Municipal Order league.
and the ladies report the city officials as
being in perfect sympathy with the new
order ri things. Women have certainly
become desperately in earnest in their
interest In public matters when they
cam deliberately seek an employment
which raust necessarily b 80 very repul-
sive. The experiment bids fair to suc-
coed, however, % the woman who has
undertaken this new line Of work is ann
ply fitted Tor the place. She has perfect
health and q flow of spirits that can
overcome all the depressing effects OF
her occupation. Her appearance il COM
manding and her dress simple. She has
taken MP the work seriously and allows
nothing TO interfere with her business
She ID obliged 10 know how to detect

the garbage 10 the lake and see that
! they rrset the requirements Of the law.
