The Argument Of Force.

The argument Of force in a contro
versy between employe, and en-.
ployers IS worth nothing except as il
may be used TO preserve order, to pro.
tect property and TO vindicate the su.
premacy of the laws. That is to say.
there is no logic and no propriety in
it when it is employed by private cit.

purposes. The moment that a strike

A Republican Mistake.

Republicans may argue themselves
out of an issue if they continue to
point at tine Senate sugar schedule.
A voter who reasons will see in the
sugar scandal an unanswerable proof
that the Democratic party should have
increased majorities, The operation
of the trust is only sample OF all
protective tariff making. When the
Sugar Trust controlled the schedules
in 1890 there was no hue and cry, be-
cause scores of other trusts were do
ing the same thing in the same way.
The schedules of this year have the
advantage at least of being arranged
for revenue with incidental protec-
ton. In 1890 they were purely for
the trust. Revenue was abandoned.
They enabled the trust to pay such
dividends on stock which was about
four-fifths water that the combination
as the New York Times says, discon-
tinued its annual meeting so that the
size Of its profits might not be known.
In the House, where the Democrats
are in complete control, the Sugar
Trust was powerless. The tariff bill
sent to the Senate gave free sugar to
the people and ignored the trust.
The more there is in the sugar
scandal, the more 1t condemns the Re
publican policy of protection.-The
Republic.

The matter went over temporarily.
Prendergast was brought into court

Judge Payne said that he wouldn't
consider motion for a continuance

REPRESENTATIVE SALES.


CHICAGO. Dec. 1.-THE Cattle market
opened firm. The easier feeling developed
soon after the opening was caused by the
discovery that the arrivals were something
like 1000 head greater than the first esti-
mates made The demand prevented &c
clines. prices remaining about the same as
on Saturday.
There was an average advance in hogs of
1Oc per 100 pounds. The increased firmnesS
was a consequence of the fact that the ar
rivals fell below expectations. The great
bulk of the stuff was weighed at s4.256460
or at $425G445 for light and at SA49G46O
for medium and heavy. Prime heavy
weights were quoted at $4.65d470. and
prime assorted lighe at $440Q4.45.
The sheep market opened decidedly
strong. Heavy sheep were only steady to
perhaps a few cents higher in some cases,
but medium weight sheep and lambs of all
KINGS sold from 10 tC 75c higher. The re-
ceipts were remarkably good as TO quality,
very little poor and common stuff being
offered. Quotations ranged from SIPS to
$50 for poor to choice sheep, and $3.50
