Those who think that the adoption
of the sugar schedule ends Republican
opposition to the tariff bill are greatly
mistaken. The battle has just begun.
1t is no longer a battle of Republican
protection or of preservation of party
principles, it is now more than ever be
fore battle in defense of the peoples
right and the peoples property.-Mail
and Express, (Rep).
1t is cheering to know that this is
to be done not to preserve principle,
a thing the Republicans gave up long
ago.

Says the New York Recorder Rep):
The advent to power of Grover

ming of the Severe5t industrial paraly-

time of peace. In a moment, as it were

Gus, industrious, enterprising, great in
resources, superabunde ntly blessed in
the possibilities of material develop
ment, found themselves halted in their
career Of advancement. Mills We're
closed. Mines shut up. Banks suspen-
ded. Merchants failed. Honest Me-
chanics became tramps. Labor went to
stalked Through the great centres of
population, and the hand of charity
had to be stretched out to feed the
furnishing. This is only a faint pic
ture of what we will all have seen dur
ing the last year and three months.
Where does the responsibility rest?
The question answers itself-at the
doors of the Democratic party.
The great, black shadow of Republi-
can extravaganza, the outgrowth of
partisan legislation favorable to mo-
nopolies and ininaical to the people, was
already seen on the horizon when the
Democratic party took control of the
government They found the govern
ment like a rent-racked farm or a leas-
ed mime, and they are now putting ii
in shape again. Surely this house of
boGsted Republican prosperity was
built upon the sand and the first wave
of adversely has shaken it from its
foundation.

Speaking of the gross libel that the
Philadelphia Press's Washington cor
respondent, Mr.. Edwards, perpetrated
on Secretary Carlisle, the Philadelphia
Times says:
1t is no longer a question whether
the secretary of the treasury and four
senators are perjured, or whether Mr.
Edwards and the journal that employs
him are guilty of falsehood. The testi-
mony before the Senate committee is
uncontradicted for the simple reason
that it cannot be contradicted, and it
stamps Mr.. Edwards as the monu-
mental newspaper liar of the age.
Such things are a disgrace to Jour
nalism and should be frowned down
by all good citizens, which would
doubtless include some Republicans.

Of the Ubiquitous tobacco schedule,
the New York Herald Qnd) says:
The spectacle of the people in the
greatest tob3cco-producing country in
the world being compelled by law to
pay well nigh two prices for the tobacco
they consume is a striking commentary
on the workings of protection y
Doubtless if the tax served to prevent
the abuse of the weed something could
be said in its favor. But practically
it will only serve to burden millions of
consumers for the benefit of a few
manufacturers.

That enthusiastic meeting of the re-
form Democracy in Brooklyn, calling
for an immediate vote upon the tariff
bill, voices the opinion of the country.
No more delays; no more strdying in
by-pathsi Before the June roses begin
to wither, the whole subject should be
out of the way.
The House should promptly decline to
concur in the infamy of the surrender
in the Sugar trust, and the Senate
should be compelled to give up its Gull
prits and to arrive at an honorable
vote Then the schedules remaining
must be quickly adjusted and discus
sion closed.

derstand the uselessness of debate, and
they will surrender to the inevitable.

The New York Times (Dem) has this
to say concerning the sugar schedules:
1t is the plain duty of the Democrats
of the House, in behalf of the people
generally and for the welfare of the
Democratic party, to repudiate this
shameful bargain and to insist upon an
honest schedule of sugar imposts that
shall yield revenue to the government
and to the government alone, They
should steadfastly refuse TO acquiesce
in the surrender of the Senate major
ity to forbidden and abhorrent
forces and should demand for final en-
actment sugar schedule which the
party can defend.
The Democratic House represents the
true sentiment of the country and the
House will safeguard it.

TOPEKA, Kan, July PA dispatch

anything to do with the investigation.
In the afternoon Judge Mcdonnell could
not appear and the prosecution was de-
clared closed without a word of testi-
mony. Six witnesses testified for Chase
and they made a good showing against
the charges. Judge Mcdonnell states
he will prosecute Warden Chase on the
charge Of assault with intent to kill.

On Jan. H. 1853, Orsini and his confeder-

It Is the Most Powerful Hand Arm Ever
Invented.
The ''riot gum with which United
States Marshal Arnold armed his posse of
deputies in Chicago is really cross be-
tween the gatling gun and the French mi
trailleuse. It may be defined as a repeat
ing shotgun, but is the most powerful
hand arm ever loaded with powder and
shot. The weapon is of larger bore than
the average army rifle, but weighs less
Its magazine has room for six - caliber
cartridges. Each cartridge contains 81
drains of powder and ~ buckshot. Be
tween the shot and the powder are two
ne-eighth inch compressed paper wads
The shell of the cartridge is of paper,
backed by rim of brass Its outward
appearance is very much like that of the
ordinary shotgun shell, but it's surface is
thicker and much stronger. The six car
tridges may be fired in half as many Sec
onds, thus throwing 70 scattering bullets,
any Of which would inflict serious wound
at so yards distance The magazine may
be reloaded easily within half minute
1t is calculated that with the shot of each
cartridge scattering as it is discharged
the gun, in the hands of fairly accurate
shot, is capable of disabling $50 men to
the minute. Marshal Arnold says that
five men armed with these weapons and
fairly protected could easily dispose of a
mob of SO, 900 rioters
The latest pattern of the riot gun has
been on the market for few months only.

A law Of congress for the arbitration
of railroad troubles was passed in 1885,
It did not enforce settlement, but pro-
vided for the appointment Of federal
commission of arbitration, which could
investigate the differences and decide
them if it was allowed to do so by the
disputants. Theswording of one clause
of the act is as follows: ''And the pres
ident may, upon his own motion, or
upon the application Of one Of the par
ties, or upon the application of the ex-
ecutive Of the state, tender the services
of such commission. This is the law
under which President Cleveland agreed

Attorneys For Strike Leaders
Appear In Federal Court
at Chicago.
POLICY OF THE DEFENSE,
Right and Power of the Court
to Issue the lnjuncti0nS
Questioned.

CHICAGO, July 24.-An answer has
been filed by the attorneys for the Off
GERS Of the American Railway union, in
the contempt proceedings in the United
States court, growing out Of the alleged
violation of the federal injunction
against interference with the mails and
interstate commerce. The answer,
which was formulated by Attorneys W.
w. Erwin Of St. Paul, and S. S. Greg
Dry of Chicago, is very lengthy and de-
MES nearly every material allegation of
the complaint, including the sending of
the kilograms in evidence. Among the
matters denied is that any Of the mem
bers of the A. R. U. committed any of
the acts Of violence complained of.
This, as most o. the other denials, is
made ''upon information and BELIEF
What the Defense Proposes.
The defense proposes to carry the case
to the supreme court of the United
States in the event of an adverse decis-
ion here, and if defeated there to appeal
through congress to the people. The
policy of the defense will be to question
the right and power Of the court to issue
injunctions like that. obtained by the
railway companies against Debs and his
associates, and then imprison those en-
joined if the injunction be violated. It
will be contended that what the court
has done amounts to
Usurpation of Power
not given to the federal Judiciary by
either the constitution or law. The de-
Tense will follow closely the lines of the
report of the Boatner committee Of con-
gress which investigated the injunction
and contempt proceedings by Judge
Jenkins.
