ATTACKING THE WILSON BILL.
Republican and Democratic Members
Take a Shy at II.

After The Stars report of the House
proceedings closed yesterday the considera-
ton of the coal schedule continued. All
amendments We're voted down, so that
coal remains on the free list, where the
Wilson bill places it.
At 4:5O the House took up the considera-
ton Of the iron ore schedule. Mr.. Oates
(Ala.) was recognized to offer an amend
ment to take iron ore off the free list and
put a tariff tax of 40 cents a ton on it
In advocating his amendment he said the
high-priced miners of this country would
be brought into competition with cheap
foreign labor by free ore. and that the
former could not possibly compete with
any success. He pleaded for these men
and that their livelihoods be not taken
away from them.
Mr.. Bland (IoD interrupted Mr.. Oates
to say that if he (Mr. Bland) held such
protectionist views he would get over on
the other side of the House.
Mr.. Oates replied that he had always
been in favor of the protection incidental
to revenue tariff.
Mr.. Sibley Va.) said that with a monthly
deficit of Sl0,OO0,OOO bill had been brought
in creating a further deficit of SI5,Oo0OOO
year. He said he would lose his right
hand rather than vote to destroy the in
dustries of his state. Republican ap-

that the democrats had gonl over, horse,
foot and artillery, into the camp of the

I'm tariff reform. or else when the party
met their opponents at the hustings the
character of the House would be changed
He announced that he was in favor of a
moderate protection. with sufficient reve-
nue..
Mr.. Mcguire (Cal) made a brief speech
in favor of the Wilson bill.
Mr.. Haugen (WiS) spoke in opposition
to the Wilson bill in general and against
free iron ore in particular He presented
a remonstrance from the chamber of COM
merce of Duluth against the passage Of the
free iron schedule of the Wilson bill.
He gave notice that tomorrow he would
propose an amendment providing for the
retention of the present duty on iron ore.
Mr.. Blair On. H., in reply to the plea
made by some democrats for retention
of an incidental protection in a revenue
bill, said that, in view OF the fact that they
contended that all protection was uncon-
Stitutional, he did not see how they could
consistently advocate this.
The hour of $50 having arrived, the
House took a recess until o'clock, leaving
the iron schedule pending.

nothing, but unsettle everything

TROOPS AT JACKSONVILLE.
A Large Number Of the Florida Militia
Arrive to Prevent the Fight.

The verandas of the hotels at Jackson
Vile, Fla. yesterday afternoon were filled
with crowds of sports eagerly discussing
the distressing details and relieving their
feelings by pitching nickels to singing and
dancing darky boys, when the check, the
injunction. and all the other well-worn fea-
lures Of the play were forgotten by the re-
port that the soldier boys had arrived. The
report proved to be true. and every one in
the city seemed to have hurried to the main
street to see the militia.
The arrivals were the members Of the
second battalion of the state troops from
various points in the state, not including
the two companies at Jacksonville. They
were In charge of Maj Lowell, who preceded
his command one day. The command num-
bers 133 officers and men. They arrived
prepared for active work and a long cam
paign. Besides their arms, the troops
brought blankets and subsistence. Their
march from the railroad station to the
armory on Bay street was along through
the entire business section of the main
street where the crowds had gathered 20
see them. The wagons with the camp
equipments were strongly guarded The
companies were preceded by band of
music. All bore aims
The soldiers are good-looking lot Of
youngsters, who have on three different oc-
casions responded to calls for the suppress
sion of negro riots, and have always given
good and soldierly account of themselves
Yet they were Missed by hundreds on every
block of their march from the station to the
armory.
One of the lieutenants said: I'VE are here
because We have been duly ordered to come
by the governor. What we are to do none
of us has an idea. OF course. we shall do
as We are told, although the fact Is that
nine out of every ten Of us would like to
the fight"
When the men were quartered In the
armory, about q O'Clock. Maj. Lowell report
ed at once to Adjutant General Houston.
and soon afterward reported to Sheriff
Broward, as he had been commanded to do
by the governor. The major said he had re-
ceived no further orders than that. There
is strong belief that the movements OF the
troops will be commanded in case of mar
tial law being declared. not by the sheriff.
under whom they are nominally, but by
Adjutant General Houston. who will act
under Instructions from the governor.

the undertaking of Col. Feodor Zubovics Of
the Austro- Hungarian army will be fol-
lowed with deep interest by thousands of
people outside of mis- native land. He start
ed from Buda -Pesth a few days ago for
Cairo, whence he will penetrate into the in
terror of Africa to liberate two prisoners
row held by the fierce Mahdi One of them
Is Szlatin Bey, once comrade of Zubovics
in Hungary and later a colonel in the
Egyptian army: and the other is Ignaz
Neufeld, a Tyrolean, who was a canteen
carrier for the same army. Ten years ago
the two soldiers were taken prisoners by
the Nahdi at the battle of Khartoum, with
the Austrian priest, Josef Oberwalder. 1t
may be remembered that Oberwalder sue
ceeded in escaping from the stronghold of
the Mahdi little more than year ago
Two nuns shared the hardships of his
fight, and succeeded in reaching the coast
with him. The tales of the escaped priest
excited the interest and sympathy of the
whole civilized world at the time He
brought additional particulars of the death
of Gordon.
Oberwalder. who had known Zubovics in
his Egyptian days bore a message to the
Hunga rian from Sziatin and Neufeld, beg
ging him to free them. The colonel sent a
letter to Oberwalder at Cairo In reply to
the message, saying rather ungailantly: Il
shall come. Satan take you! Why did you
not liberate SZlatin and Neufeld yourself,
instead of two nuns?'
In the meantime. Zubovics, having learn
ed from the priest that money would be no
aid in his attempt to secure the release Of
his friends, has formed a new plan to free
them himself. The details of his scheme he
has, naturally, declined to make public, be-
yond the fact that he intends to make his
journey entirely alone. Years may go by
before he returns to his home. Many peo-
pie think that he will never come back

PARETIC JOURNALISM.

The prim old Post gave its readers sensa-
ton yesterday that must have startled them
into the belief that its management has an
attack of paresis. Erratic, unwarranted, and
unreasonable conduct is said to be a symptom
OF paresis, and the unaccountable departure
of the Post from its time-honored policy Of
publishing rational information is an evidence
that something is wrong.
The sensation was ruddy hued and alarm
ing, but it failed to create any feeling except
that of regret. Even had the story been true,
there are good reasons why it should never
have been published. Such information is
generally followed by the misdeeds of cranks
and half maniacs, who need only the prompt
ing of alarmists to give impulse to their
wheel-brained vagaries.
1t is better to adhere to journalism that e1-
poses wrong-doing and brings offenders to
punishment than to publish sensations that
demoralize and alarm the public. It is to be
hoped that the Post will recover from its er-
ratio attack and continue in the good old

LINE OF LABOR INQUIRY.
Commissioner Wright to Study the Results
OF Machinery Upon the Producer
and Production.


and Production.
An interesting line of inquiry has been set
Oh foot by Chairman McGann. Of the House
Labor Committee. through Labor Commits
sloner Wright, concerning the results of ma
chinery upon labor and production. Mr.
McGann believes that this country is suffer-
ing from overproduction. Isrgely caused by
the Introduction oi labor saving machinery,
which displaces workmen while 1t increases
the output.
The typesetting machines which do the
work each OF three men he considered good
example Of this tendency. When they are in
troduced In printing office two-thirds Of the
men are, 1t Is claimed. displaced. They drift
into other printing offices. find it difficult to
the sake OF a living, and reduce the general
rates Of wages. Another example OF the same
character he finds in the history OF labor-sav-
ing machinery in brick making.
The remedy for this he finds in shorter
hours Of labor. arguing that system OF
shorter hours Will give employment TO more
hands and at the same time increase consump-
ton in proportion, perhaps, to the produc-
ton.
When the hours OF work are shortened the
laborer goes home with long evening on his
hands. He must have another suit of clothes
to put on. another pair of boots. another hat.
must have books and papers to read. or he
must 60 for walk, take his wife. and buy
cigar for himself and candy for his wife, thus
increasing the consumption Of products.
The Commissioner Of Labor is collecting sta
tistics upon the effect of machinery on prices.
labor, and production in different lines, which
the committee hopes to be able to utilize in
recommending legislation. An effort to COM
pile statistics regarding convict labor in the
United States has also been instituted by the
committee as u preliminary to drawing bill
to prevent competition between prison-made
goods and the product Of free labor.

LET US HAVE LIGHT.

The citizens Of Washington pay large sums
OF money every year to the gas company for
a very inferior article of light. IT is the judg-
ment of visitors and residents who have trav-
eled that this is one of the worst lighted cities
in the country, and yet it would be difficult to
name another place where the rates exacted
compare with those which this community is
compelled to endure
The poor quality OF the light furnished and
the excessive charges therefor may be ac-
counted for by the fact that the business is a
monopoly. The company is master of the
situation. Its patrons may and do grumble
and kick, but they have to pay the bill just
tine same.
Every few years an attempt is made to es-
tablish competing company. Heretofore
the old concern has either crushed out all op-
position or bought of the projectors. After
each such experience the invariable result
ensued of poorer lights and heavy bills in
order to make good to the company the eI-
penses OF the fight.
There are now before Congress bills for the
reduction OF the price of gas in this city to 81
per l 900 feet, which also provide for an i'm
provement in the quality. The rate fixed is
ample, and the company can well afford to
furnish good gas and make large dividends
on its stock. Whether it will do SO is an
other matter. Its past success in defeating
all attempts to curb its greed has made it in
solent and Indifferent to the wishes of the
people.
The company is making a great mistake.
One ofthese days it may be shorn of its valu-
able franchise. Municipal lighting is max
ing headway all over the country. Our local
company should deal fairly with the people,
and thus avert possible danger to itself.
