The Tariff air in the Senate.

Those who hope the Wilson bill
viii be pushed through the Senate quickly
| are going TO be disappointed. After Mr..
Voorhees, opening speech on Monday it
was laid aside and the indications are
that it will be treated that wayvery often
and, as a general thing, taken up only
when the Senate has nothing or hand
which has greater interest for it.
The republicans have announced that
they intend to make the debate long
one. They will do the most of the talk
ing. They are laying the foundation for
their next congressional campaigns, and
hope to win back to protection those
whom the democrats have converted to
tariff reform.
The republicans, however. do not
threaten the bill with defeat They
would defeat it, of course, if they could,
but they will content themselves with
voting against it All they purpose do
ing now is to go on record against it.
The danger to the bill is the attitude of
a mum Der of democratic senators and rep
resentatiyes towards it. 1t is admitted
that the bill provides for a surplus of
about S40,O00,00O. The senators who
are opposed to the income tax are
going 10 ask to have that
provision of the bin stricken out. The
senator's who are Directing to the exac-
tions of the sugar trust intend TO make a
hard fight TO have both raw and refined
sugar put ON the free list. The whisky
people don't like the provision of the bill
that raises the tax on their product.
From this brief statement it is evident
there is going to be some very sharp work
done in the Senate and conference commit
tee. Back of the senators who are
against the income tax and the protec-
tion afforded the sugar refiners
there are strong Hobbies, and there
will be a long struggle before it is decided
whether sugar is to be put on the free
list, or the income tax is to be abandoned,
or whether neither provision of the bill
is to be disturbed
1t is regrettable that so hong a time is
TO be occupied in getting the Wilson bill
through congress. 1t is quite generally
believed that the passage of that bill is
all that is needed to restore good times
The Senate win take its time, however.
Its dignity seems to be of much more i'm
portance to it than the business situation
throughout the country.

Ooxey's Army.

Coxey's army will continue to grow as
long as it is fed Tramps from places
miles away from the route it is pursuing
are hurrying towards it, not because they
have any sympathy with its alleged OBJ
iect but with the hope of getting plenty
to eat for few days
The army is not composed of people
who want work, but of those who pun
pose living at the expense of others.
There is great demand at present for
farm labor in the west None of the peo-
pie in Coxey's army would think of doing
the work of a farm laborer.
1t is remarkable that food is so freely
given along the route. The only explana-
ton is that at every place where a stop is
made there is fear that the army will dis
band there, and that the vicinity will be
overrun with beggars. Food enough is
supplied, therefore, to last the army until
another station is reached
VIII the army reach Washington That
question may soon become an interesting
one. Ii the army should grow to thou
sands and get TO the capital the federal
authorities would have an interesting
question to deal with. 1t would have to
be fed, and how would it be got rid Of?
1t would be useless to furnish transporta-
ton, because the members of the army
are practically homeless If food supplies
We're withheld now the crowd would dis
perse before it became unmauageable.
The widely circulated newspaper re-
port that Senator Blackburn had been
converted at Moody and Sankey revival
meeting has resulted in at least one anus
ing incident Shortly after the publication
of the report a food tide Of tracts and
other religious literature began to pour
into the senator's committee room. His
secretary, hardly knowing how to dispose
of the mass of printed matter, asked the
senator what to do with the tracts. Dis
tribute them, with Senator Blackburn's
compliment was the reply he got The
senator was Joking, but the secretary
didn't know it. Presently Blackburn be-
gan to get letters from his kentucky con-
stituents suggesting that probably he
could do missionary work better if he
were not in the Senate; and then the
senator had to write a lot of explanatory
letters.

Denver, the capital of Colorado is one
Of the silver centers of the country. The
silver sentiment is as strong there as any
where, and the Denver Republican in it's
great prophet. Yet the Denver Republi-
can says; 1t is both amazing and anus
ing that there should be such terrible
connection over the vetoing of the harm
less, worthless, senseless seigniorage
bill" The populists and soreheads are
evidently on the wrong track; the silver
mine owners did not care whether the
bill was signed or not.

The season for foods in the lower Mis-
sissippi valley has about arrived. Indeed,
there are already reports of water levels
approaching the danger line in Louisiana.
IL seems that each year the bed of the
river is raised by the deposit of sediment
carried in the water, which causes higher
water each succeeding spring. To meet
the contingency the levees must year
after year be raised, each season finding
both the levee level and the river level
higher above that of the ad jacent country.
And, naturally, as the river level goes up
the overfows that occur increase in area
and destructiveness. The problem Of
mastering the Mississippi is truly great
one. II may not be that the levee system
is a solution Of the problem, but those
who are most interested continue to place
great faith in the levees.

Senator Stewart, of Nevada, informs
an anxious public through the medium of
one of his voluminous letters to the press
that he has not been a republican for
more than two years; that he left that
party long ago because of its financial
policy and has been populist ever since.
If that is true, it is remarkable circum-
stance that Mr. Stewart did not say
something about it in his sketch of him
self that appears in the Congressional
Directory for the current congress. That
interesting work classes him with the re-
publicans.

Great BRITAIN WIN Do Her part

Statements were made by prominent
Canadian officials recently that Great
Britain had done little or nothing toward
carrying into effect the award by the
Paris tribunal in respect'to protecting the
seals in Boring sea. The inference from
those statements is that the Canadian
poachers intend to prey upon the seals
this season as they have in past seasons.
Our dispatches from London yesterday
however, contained the announcement
that Great Britain purposes to act in
good faith, and will do her part toward
patroling Boring sea. This announce
ment will not be pleasant one for the
Canadian poachers, who evidently ex-
pected that Great Britain would be indif-
ferent as to whether the decision of the
Paris tribunal was carried into effect or
not.
Even if England had shown indiffer-
ence this country would have enforced
the decree of the tribunal 1t would have
undertaken single-handed to protect the
seals against indiscriminate slaughter If
the Canadian poachers were permitted to
do as they please there would be no seals
in the course of a very few years. They
would be eXterminated as completely as
the Dufaloes of the west have been With
both American and British ships patrol
ing Berlng sea there will not be much
chance for poachers TO capture seals, and
they cannot make the business proflta-
BILE they will give it up and let the seals
have an opportunity to multiply.
