EACH breeze that sweeps the ocean
brings tidings of democracy's disastrous
triumph. One by one the foreign ma
tions with whom reciprocity treaties
were negotiated under the Mckinley
act are sending in notice of their de-
termination to revoke those treaties
and reimpose the old duties on Ameri-
can imports. Brazil is the latest. She
has given three months notice of her
determination to terminate the treaty
negotiated with her. On and after JAN
uary she will impose duties on Ameri-
can products which she has been adj
hitting free for some three years, and
all because democratic congress has
enacted law that violates treaty stipu-
lations. Under this treaty American
exports had largely increased. Cereals
and many manufactures were admitted
free, and duties on other articles were
greatly reduced. But what is Americas
lOeS 10 Olcdb Sdlu1 duu uCluOC-
racy scores another victory in its war
fare upon American industry. John
Bull shows his high appreciation of all
this transfer of trade by banqueting and
eulogizing Chairman Wilson, Cleve-
lands lieutenant in this ungodly bust
ness.
REBELLION is brewing in the dem.
ocratic party in New York. The move
ment for an independent state demo-
cratic ticket, begun when the reform
delegates of Kings county were ex-
PEELED from the state convention with
gibes and insults, has received new
impetus, and meeting of the anti
machine leaders tonight will definitely
determine what is to be done. Brook
Ign is the center of the disaffection. Its
leader there is Mr.. Shepard, who was
at the head of the movement that over
threw Boss Mclaughlin and cleaned
out the McKane conspirators at Graves
end. Elk Secretary Fairchild and ex-
Mayor Grace are in the movement, the
former being its probable candidate for
governor. The Brooklyn Eagle voices
the determination of the Independents
to put ticket in the field and believes
emphatically that full state, county
and local ticket will be nominated. AT
meetings of political associations Mr..
Hill is considered "as a plainly unfit
candidate" and it is declared that the
logical candidate for judge of the court
of appeals on ticket with Hill is "that
thief of election returns, Isaac Fl. May
nard." The clouds are lowering over
Hill. The lightning stroke will come
in November.
