FELL INTO THE TRAP.
A POODLE ALDERMAN OF THE CRIES


 CITY AN EASY VICTIM.
 NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 29.-Couucilmen Numa Doudoussat, ons of the city hall boodlers, fell into neat trap this morning and was caught red handed in crime. Dou- doussat is man of family, but he has been looked upon as one of the big boodlers of the council.
 MT. Sherman has beon trying for several days to get Doudoussat to vote for an ordi- nance which Sherman wished to have passed by the council. Doudoussat finally agreed to sell his vote for $100 ,and Sherman made an engagement with him to settle this morning at o'clock at Sherman s grocery store. <
 Just before 8 o'clock Private Detective O'Malley and Officer Aucoin entered the grocery and obtained from Sherman the numbers and description of the bills to be paid to the councilman, and then stationed themselves where they could see the whole transaction.
 Doudoussat entered the grocery on time, and Sherman took him over to a corner aud there counted out to him the money, O'Malley and Aucoin being in a position to see what took place. After the settle- ment had been made Doudoussat invited Sherman to drink, and while they were at the bar the officers stepped up and arrested the councilman. He was indignant at first, but they took him to the police station and he was searched. The bills were found on his person, and be was charged with re- ceiving bribe. He has not yet given bond Doudoussat Is already under indict- Tnant

REV. SAM JONES and family have been summering at Round Lake, N. Y. The church at Round Lake was deeply in debt, as it usually is at summer resort. A series of meetings was arranged. and the reputation of Rev. Sam Jones as a raiser of church debts having preceded him he was called on to preach. He made powerful appeal and the collectors took up bis com tribution. Sam Jones himself subscribed S100. This liberal contribution so pleased the stewards of the church that they deter mined not to be outdone in generosity, so they gave MT. Jones $500 for his services. This mutual exchange of courtesies illus trates the beauties of the doctrine of free trade, protection and reciprocity. It was free trade in that there were no duties to prevent the exchange. It was protection in that the revenues were derived from the people in the congregation. It was reef procity in that there was mutual exchange without any previous understanding in the shape of a tariff bill.

THE PRESIDENT WAS RIGHT.

The Atlanta Constitution, in long and labored editorial, tries to show that Presi- dent Cleveland should have signed the tariff bill, and declares that his failing to do so was a falling away from that lofty ideal of duty and courage that he has here- tofore been credited with. This is certainly B strange view to take of the Presidents action. The whole tenor of his letter to MT. Catchings clearly indicates that he was moved to his course by that same lofty ideal of duty and courage that has always been his guiding motive. If he had been actuated by the politicians desire to keep in with both factions of his party he would have signed the bill. The average politi- elan would not have hesitated moment to sign the bill. But MT. Cleveland thinks nothing of his own political prospects, nor of what posterity will say of him. when it cones to question of what he believes to be right. His entire past career illustrates this noble trait of his character, and this was tie charm that captured the hearts of the American people and caused them to elevate him to the Presidential chair for the second time in spite of the protests of the politicians. From MT. Cleveland's point of view he could not consistently sign the tariff bill, and he would not stultify himself and the party by so doing. He felt that the cardinal principle of the Democratic party had been partially ignored in this bill, and to give it his official indorsen ent would set back the cause of tariff reform for many years.
 He himself has been the recognized leader of the tariff reform hosts. and had he struck

PRESS OPINIONS.

All the newspapers have had their say about the tariff bill, and it is amusing, as well as instructive, to read their opinions.
 The New York Tribune calls it ''the bill of sale, " and figures out that every family in the land must pay an additional price or $1. 50 per anuum for it's sugar. Not only that, but whisky has become dearer. This latter increase causes the Tribune more concern than the former. It says further: "The country will probably have reason to rejoice within the next year that it has taken only moderate dose of Democratic reform, instead of the much larger dose proposed. A little will be enough to de. termine whether that medicine tends to in- crease the demand for American labor or to lessen it's burdens. If it does neither, if it ipjures the people both ways, the elections in November will probably give their an- swer."
 The bill is not all that the New York Herald wanted, but it is free to say that unsatisfactory and disappointing as are the results of the session, the law will afford some relief from the burdens of Mo- Kinley protection, and, above all 1t brings an end of the agitation and suspense from which the country has suffered so long and so keenly. That business will now begin >>tQ improve aud times grow better is to be expected as a matter of course.o
 The New Orleans Picayune says the s'new tariff law is unquestionably a reve- nue measure. Although it will produce much more revenue than the Mckinley law, it represents a reduction in the duties on most of the articles imported into the country and consumed by the people of from 20 to 30 per cent"
 The Indianapolis Journal (Rep.) says one Of the first effects fthe new law will be a sudden influx of foreign goods, and thinks the revival of business will be temporary.
 The Boston Journal (Rep.) is confident that the tariff is settled.
 The Topeka Capital (Rep.) is of the opinion that the bill favors the South more than the North.
 The Detroit Free Press says the increased importations will react favorably upon our exports. The prices of wheat, cotton and corn are bound to advance. An era of prosperity is at hand.
 Collars and cuffs are all right, says the New York Press. The duty simply signi- fies that their anufacture will be kept in this country instead of the Old World. Senator Murphy is to be thanked for his persistent efforts in favor of the duty.
 The Boston Globe has four predictions to venture: First, the Democratic disap- pointment with the bill will only be tenn porary; second, the prosperity of the eoun- try will quickly rally and mount higher than under any other tariff; third, no gen. eral resdjustment of custom duties will be effected again for at least ten years; fourth, the defects of the new law will be remedied by separate acts without annoyance to the general business of the country.
 The Pittsburg Post is of the opinion that it has not been the proposed changes in duties that affected business, but the un- certainty.

IN MEMORIAM

The Ladies' Aid society and Foreign Missionary society of the First Presby- terian church, desiring to give expression to their loss n the death of their beloved sister and coworker, Mrs. H. M. Cald- well, and of their appreciation of ner beautiful life and character, and their sub- mission to the allwise and loving will of our Heavenly Father, do hereby adopt the following resolutions:
 That we will here record our gratitude to our Heavenly Father that He gave her grace so to walk before us h the beauty of holiness in love to her Savior and all the world.
 That we will strive to follow her as she followed Christ; and with hearts touched to their depths by these tender memories, we would say with one accord what she would have us say, ''it is the Lord, let Him do what to Him seemeth good. .'' That we offer, as we feel it our sweet privilege to do, our Christian sympathy to her loved ones, husband and children, in their loneliness and grief, reminding them that they should not sorrow as those who have no hope, as the beloved wife and mother has been called by loving Savior from a world of paiu, weariness and suffer- ing to higher, brighter and sweeter world above.
 That as a society we will seek at all the tribute of ever increasing interest in the work she loved so well.
 That a copy of these resolutions be put upon the minutes of these societies.

WHO CAN IT BEY

FACT OR FICTION ABOUT WORLDS FAIR
 AWARDS.
 A newspaper paragraph denounces as ''false" the claim of baking powder com pany to an award at the Worlds fair. Whom can it mean?
 Certainly not Dr. Price's. Why? Be- cause, as the records show, Dr. Price's 8 exhibited, competed and received the high est award. The official examiners pro. nounced it the strongest, the purest, the most wholesome and efficient of all the baking powders. Its title to confidence is unquestioned.
 Can it be the manufacturers of New York powder, fctitiously labelled "absolutely pure," who are making ''false' claims? That would be strange, indeed, inasmuch as they were not even con nsidered in tue awards.
 Was it ammonia in the New York pow der that prevented its makers from com- peting?

GUARDiAN's REVIEW.

MANCHESTER, Aug. 29.-The Guardian, in It's commercial article, saye: There has been thin attendance, owing to the holi- days, and prices have failed to advance on the last few days. There has been some demand for shirtings, sheetings and mis- ceilaneous goods, but China and Japan of fers are mostly unavoidable. The slight decline in the price of cotton has been suf- ficient to cause buyers to be cautious. The passage of the American tariff bill is ex- pected to greatly favor business, but it is doubtful whether the increase will be im- mediate. The bulk of the offers from In- dia are much below acceptance, though some business has resulted in medium shirtioGs, fine bleaching goods and fancy specials, and there has been little buying in plain goods and the fine prints from Brezil and the river plate. Yarns steady, but the inquiry Is disappointing, buyers holding off.

TIE tariff question involves two oppos- ing principles: First, protection for pro- tection's sake; second, tariff for revenue only. These two broad principles separate the Republican and Democratic parties. The first finds it's foremost champion in Mckinley, the second it's bold champion in Grover Cleveland. There never has been in this country, is not now, or ever will be, any such thing as free trade. The government must raise a revenue, and will continue to do it by levying duty on i'm ports. Therefore, it is folly to say that the Senators who insisted on moderate duty on certain articles deserted tue principles of their party. They stood on the broad Democratic principle that the government must raise a revenue by duties, and in their opinion certain articles were proper for the dutiable list. This was a matter of policy, not principle.

Had he signed the bill the tariff reformers would have deserted the party and gone to another party that offered them relief from the grinding bur dens oI protection. As it now is, these men will remain in the party, knowing that 1t is the party's ultimate intention to work further tariff reform.

THE account of the closing hours of Congress states that for the first time in many years the venerable doorkeeper did not find it necessary to move back the hands of the clock. No doubt the Chinese, who are noted for "ways that are dark and tricks that are vain, ,' laugh at this Amer ican habit of tampering with time. Yet they were recently guilty of an act almost az amusing. While the plague was raging in China one of their wise men said it would not abate until certain festival day in the spring. So they moved up this fes- tival day on the calendar and celebrated 1t at once, thus stopping the plague and say. ing many lives.

IT is very injurious to the human sys- tenn to receive shock by sudden plunge into cold water. So it is with the indus trial system. A radical free trade bill would have shocked business. The infant industries that have been coddled so long in the lap of protection would have been terribly shocked by the douche. It is bet ter to lead them along by the different de- grees of a Turkish bath until the cold plunge comes. There is no doubt but that cold water is healthful, bracing and invig- orating, and when the infant industries re- ceive their last plunge they will stand up full of renewed life and vigor.
