considerable feeling and adverse criticism
here, because Of what is termed the ex-
oeedingly light sentence given by Chief
Justice Mason to Joseph b. Warren, the
ex-prison convict, 10 years In the state
prison. Some years ago he served term
In the Connecticut state prison. and, ex-
pressing penitence. he was pardoned.

CALIFORNIA possesses a queer lot of
citizens, yet some day they may become
civilized, although they do not appear
TO have made much progress in that
direction since the days of the Vigilantes.
Lately the Attorney General told the
rioters that he sympathized with
them; her State militia assembled in an
armory and passed resolutions favor
ing the rioters. and her Gov.
ernor remained at home inactive
because ''no trains were running
and he couldn't get away" California
didn't win much credit for herself dur
ing the late strike. While such senti-
ment prevails there, it is a State where
capital is hardly likely to seek invest
ment. It's too risky in a community
like that.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-Two more ap-
preparation bills--the legislative, execu-
tive and judicial, and the District of Co.
lumbia-wers disposed of by the senate
yesterday. The agricultural appropria-
tion bill was also considered, and was on
the point of being passed. but there were
several individual amendments left to be
considered. The anti-option bill was re-
ferred to the committee on agriculture
and forestry, and the conference report on
the military academy appropriation pill
was agreed to.
The Democratic mbers Of the tariff
conference committee adjourned earlier
than usual, and tbs situation at the time
Of adjournment was that the conferrees
were far from an agreement and that
within ashort time disagreement would
be reported to the senate and house. Tbs
question which has been sgitating the
members seems to be Just what kind OF
report to make, but the impression
seemed to be that It would be on . general
disagreement, with perhaps some Of the
main points specified.
The house. by vote Of 105 TO eT.
adopted resolution offered BY Mr.. Mo.
Creary, endorsing the action Of the presi-
dent and the administration IN suppress
ing lawlessnsss In connection with the
strike. It was adopted under suspension
Of the rules, only IS minutes being al
lowed for debate.
The remainder Of the day was spent In
IN effort to press the Bailey bankruptcy
bill; but although IL was engrosssd and
read third time. the quorum failed on
the final vote. The vote on the fnsl pas.
sage will be taken TODAY.

The "Any Bills" I'm Control.
N. Y Trihnns

.
The secret conclave of Democrats who are
trying, in contemptuous defiance of their
obligations as members of a conference
committee. to settle the tariff question
without allowing any voice whatever to
the Republican members, appears to be pro-
ceeding exactly rs IL was predicted some
time ago. The "any bill" Democrats have
full control. All the kicking does not alter
in the least the fact that few monopolists
have tho party by the throat, and are able
and determined TO kill the tariff bill in the
Senate unless its suits their wishes. The des-
peration of the Democrats who think that the
party must pass a tariff bill or die, and who
presumably dare not face their constituents
without having passed something which they
can call great deduction of taxes, gives die
tatorlal power to the few who are perfectly
ready to defeat any bill that does not please
them.

Possible Only Through Protec tion.
N. Y. Recorder.

The Minneapolis, our new warship, is the
fastest cruiser afoat, the fastest one that ever
was afioat or is likely TO be in some
time, unless, as we have been doing
year after year in the construction of the
new navy, we beat our own record. In the
race against time on Saturday Oft the New
England coast this new addition TO our feet
made the extraordinary record OF 23.05 knots
an hour In other words, she propelled her
self through the water at n speed equal TO
two thirds Of that at which an ordinarily fast
train dies over ono of our railroad tracks.
This magnificent ship could not have been
turned out of an American shipyard II the
policy Of protection TO American industry
had not been in force during the last thirty
years. IL the advocates of the theory that
we should buy our ships in the cheapest
market could have had their way, the plant
and tho mechanics that have produced the
Minneapolis would not be In existence on the
Delaware Rivor. We should have had TO
build her on the Clyde, In the Firth Of which
the Britannia has been giving Vigilant such a
drubbing or1r some other corner of Europe.
We could not have done the work here.

A man Of Mr.. Wilson's intelligence ought
TO be ashamed to talk about fundamental
principles In connection with the tariff bill of
1894. When did the two propositions which
he enunciates become fundamental Demo-
cratic prfnCfpies7 BY what Democratic au-
thority have they been declared as such?
There are. IL is true. two fundamental
Democratic principles which are violated by
the tariff bill as IL passed the Senate, but they
were equally violated by the Wilson bill as il
passed the House.
One fundamental Democratic principle is
that the Government has no right to tax the
many for the benefit of the few; that protec-
ton is fraud and robbery that tariff taxes for
any other purpose except revenue only are
unconstitutional.
The second great fundamental Democratic
principle is that the Government has no
right to tax the few for the benefit of the
many.

AMENDMENTS PASS.
Some Changes In New York's Constitution
Which yeters Indorse.

which Netora Indorses
New YORK, Nov. s.-The constitution
al amendments which were submitted TO
the voters have been adopted by sub.
stantial majority. The returns show that
the vote polied was not so large as had
been anticipated, many voters simply
casting their ballots for the election OF
state and local officers
The amendments are s3 In number
and were prepared by the recent con
stituional convention Thirty-one Of
these were voted upon in body, and two
Legislative apportionment and canal i'm
provement--were voted upon separately.
OF the 81, the amendment which arous-
ed the most interest among sporting poo
pie was that prohibiting pool sailing,
bookmaking and other forms Of gam
bling. Horse owners and breeders and
turfInen generally were very strongly op-
posed to its adoption for the reason, as
they claimed, that an antigambling law
would not only kill racing in this state,
but would be severe blow to the breed
ing interests. They exerted themselves
to the utmost to defeat the meaures. be-
lieving the interest aroused In the cleo
tion of governor and mayor would make
the adoption of the constitutional amend
ments matter of indifference. Racing
men refuse to discuss the question at any
length and will take no action until aft
er the legislature meets, when the matter
OF penalties attaching to the violation OF
the law shall have been decided upon
One of the most important of the new
measures is that requiring legislative
bills to be printed three days before pas
sage which will prevent the introduction
of bills at the last moment, as has been
the custom when haste is the chief oon-
sideration.
The item Of paramount interest pollt-
ically was the new apportionment 1t
provides, In addition to that for an in
crease Of senators from 92 to 80 and OF
assemblymen from 125 to 150, and stipu-
lates that no county shall have more than
one-third of all the senators, and no two
counties which are adjoining or which
arc separated only by public aters shall
have more than one half Of all the sena-
