sEEyfB, TARIFFS AND WAGES.

..-FFools rush In where angels fear to
tread" is called to mind by the esteem
ed Intclligencer'S precipitation in rush
ing up against the silver snag, which
MCKINLEY, Tom REED, ct a. are so
cautiously feeling their way around.
For denOuncing the characterization
of silver and the Republican tariff policy
as the plain causes that have gone hand
in hand 20 bring the farmer and laborer
and American industry in general down
to the lowest ebb in their his
tory, the Intelligencer hastens rashIIY
Now in this controversy, the difference
between Mr.. POLLOCK and the iRtcttt-
qencer is that Mr.. POLLOCK has lived an
active business life through the times OF
which he speaks aud knows from per-
sonal experience exactly what he Is
talking about, while the IrtelLiqGncer'S
political helmsmau is too young TO
have such knowledge and must depend
largely upon unreliable campaign text
hooks. Our neighbor runs its head
against the stone wall OF facts and ex-
perience in this highly reckless fashion;
He SAYS that in the last gen
Grafton the price Of everything mas
declined, and most or al IaOor =,
This statement comes under the mead
of news. Where did he learn tnat
labor has steadily declined for genera
tions He can't show it. The United
States census of 1890 is right in his face.
So are statisticians like Edward Atkinson
and David A. Wells, both Democrats.
In 1890. snd right up to the setting IN OF
these Democratic times, the average price
of labor was decidedly higher than uec-
ade ago. The price of commodities was
less. as he states, and this was the beauty
of the situation for the American work
inrman. The average wage was nlgheI
and the average commodity was lower
This was where the workingman was d
great winner. Looking backward he sees
this fact plain enough to-day.
How the esteemed Intellig6ncer can
figure it out that the price of labor'S
products, when not artitcially en-
HANGED by trust. can fall and the
wages OF labor not follow to the same
level is a piece OF astounding reasoning
that is entirely original with our neigh
Dor. At any rate it is not true, as every
workingman who is old enough knows
OF his own experience, nor is the IN
tclliqencer'S statement borne out by the
census, to which it recklessly alludes
evidently without having examined.
There is but one way TO properly hg-
ure out the increase or decrease in the
rates of wages aud that is used by Su-
perintendent PORTER, Republican, IL
the conclusions of one of his census
bulletins, which alone will suffice u
show the utter falsity OF the Epteltt
oenccr's statement that, "iu 1890 ant
right up TO the setting in of these Dem
ocratic times, the average price OF la
/ Dor was decidedly higher than decad
ago."
The following from Mr. PORTER
census bulletin, No. $50, shows that tn
vage-earner to make a dollar in tn
New England iron and steel manufact
urs must now produce half as nue.
again as be had TO produce in 1850;

fraad and fake. sc. A. DIS" dead
ly parallel" thus drawn is utterly point
less. What the REGISTER said at that
time about the Mckinley tin plate
phantom and fraud was as true as is
the solid fact of the erection Of half a
score Of tin plate mills in the United
States under the present Democratic
tariff.
Under the Mckinley bill it was i'm
possible, with a tax of four cents
pound on block tin, the in
dustry's raw material, to profit
ably make what is known as tin plate in
this country. 1t was one of MCKIN-
| LEY's grandly asinine schemes to de-
velop our tin mines and build up tin
plate industry at one lick. But his
laundering law failed either to develop
our tin mines or to start the tin plate
industry. 1t did, however, start lot
of manufacturers to experimenting and
1t was discovered that tin plate could not
be made and put on the market
so long as the raw material
was heavily taxed. What the REGISTER
said at that time regarding tin plate in
the United States is perfectly true and
it is pleased TO repeat the same with en-
phasis. There is no parallel between
that time and the present. The Wilson
bill put block tin and all the raw ma
terlals of the tin plate industry on the
free list and allowed a reasonable duty
on the manufactured product. That
was common sense, and that is why tin
plate mills are in course of erec-
ton all over the country to-day.
G. A. DIS claim that it is
"vindicatiou of the Republican
position" is exactly contrary to the
truth. The Republican policy was fully
tried and failed utterly. The thing
indicated is the Democratic policy OF
free raw material, and the general
bene6cent effects of the new Demo-
cratic tariff, which untes the hands of
American industry, and frees trade and
commerce from the handicap Of Nc
Kinleyism, in the march to prosperity.

NEW LONDON, Conn.,, April 30-Morrison 1. Swift's cOmmOnWealers, or industrial delegation as he calls it, spent quiet Sun day here in comfortable quarters and were supplied with food, including a hot din- ner, which was prepared for them in Knights of Labor hall. At a public meet ing in the opera house SIS was collected, which Commander Swift said was a larger amount than was received in all the towns in Rhode Island through which they passed.
 Sunday afternoon another public meet ing was held, at which Fitzgerald deliver ed an address, and a collection amounting to St was taken up. In the evening the musical talent of the army gave a free concert. None of the money raised had to be eXpenEed for food, as a soliciting committee collected an ample supply to feed all and had some left over A few at tended church, but for the most part the men remained in and about their head quarters.
 The leaders expressed much satisfaction at the attitude of the Connecticut people toward them as evidenced in New London. This morning they left for New Haven,
 where they expect reception from Yale students and transportation by boat to New York. Their first stop today will be at Lime village, near the Connecticut riv- CT, IS miles from New London. The dele gatiou now numbers 60 men.

sacramento's White Elephant.

SACRAMENTO, April 3O.-The San Fran cisco and Oakland industrial armies, num- bering about 900 men, arrived here from Richland. They took up their quarters at the baseball grounds. Accommodations are very poor, and many of the men are without blankets. They are fairly well supplied with food, however, one man on the road having given them three steers. Mrs Anna Smith, who heads the Oakland contingent, came to the city to look up a camping place. What the newcomers are going to do nobody knows. The citizens will not feed them more than a day or two at the most, and the military officials are on the alert for any disturbance.
 Colonel Inman of Stockton is now under arrest in the city jail, charged with va grancy Being asked if he was not an eX- convict, he replied that he was and admit ted having served three terms, two of them for stealing horses while drunk and ono for forgery. Carpenter, alias 1nman, was released from Folsom prison on the I6th inst and in less than 24 hours after ward was an officer in the industrial army uuartered at Agricultural park, this city.

 "Of course we will get a train, he said. eve will stay here until we do get one l have been informed that arrangements are being made to take us out Tuesday with teams, but we won't go until we go on a train and on one furnished by railway officials. We will not seize one, however. There need be no fear on that score.
 The army expects to remain quietly in camp today awaiting the result of the ef- forts of the trade and labor assembly to secure transportation. The mass meeting is expected to decide what will be done. Governor Jackson said to your correspond ent that he would take no action until re- quested to do so by the county authorities. ''The matter is entirely in the hands of the city and county" he said, 'and will do nothing until called upon"

AWAITING A TRAIN AT DIES MONIES
Ehe wretched Condition of His Weary, Wet and Almost Starving Army Aroused the Sympathy of All but the City Author ities-Will Not Seize a Train.

ities-WiH Not Seize Train.
 DEs MONIES, April 30.-Des Moines is in 8 state of intense excitement over the ar rival of kelly's industrial army The men had marched 27 miles without food and were held by the police five miles out of the city in driving rainstorm all day, with no provisions or shelter. The action of the authorities aroused much indigna- tion, and when the army finally marched up Grand avenue to the camp on the east side of the town, wet, haggard and weary, their condition aroused sympathy almost as great as that which was theirs in Coun- cil Bluffs.
 A mass meeting Of laboriug men nas been called fC% today, committees are at work soliciting food and money, and threats are made that unless transporta- tion is secured at Chicago radical steps will be taken. During the last 24 hours the army has undergone greater hardships than at any time since it left Utah, but notwithstanding the severe test not 25 men were missing when Des Moines was reached.
 The start from Van Meter was made in a heavy storm, and when day dawned the column was still 15 miles from it destina- ton. The cOmmiSSary wagons were empty, and the men, wet and hungry, plOdded on until they reached Walnut creek. The men struggled in during Sunday afternoon, and by o'clock ,00O men had gathered. Mayor Hillis sent 30 policemen and Sheriff McGarraugh as many deputies to meet the army and inform them that they would have to pass on through Dcs Moines to deserted stove factory, where food and shelter were provided.
 \ Thousand Hungry Men.
 This Kelly fatly refused to do, saying that his men must be fed before they marched another mile The officers were obdurate, and the 1000 hungry men stood Shiyering in the rain until half past o'clock hoping for provisions. General Weaver sent out 10 lOaYes of bread, and that served as breakfast and dinner. May or Hills insisted that if the men did not go to where the food was they should have none. At last Kelly consented to march to the stove factory.
 The industrials finally moved through the streets feebly singing their army songs. The streets were lined with spectators, and as the weary men marched by, weak from hunger, women Wept and sympathlzed with them and denounced the authorities. The stove factory, d mile and a half east of the capitol, furnished shelter for all the men, and their spirits revived at the wholesome supper furnished by the city. Many struggled in during the evening, and 1.250 slept in the camp.
 All day long the city authorities were i'll 6 turmoil of excitement. The mayor an nounced that the city would furnish but

GREAT NORTHERN STRIKE.
The Road Tries to Resume Today Under
 Government Protection.


 ST. PAUL, April 30-Busincss will be re- stunned on the Great Northern today. In some respects the strike situation is un- changed, although there have been some interesting developments The proposition of the commercial bodies of the two cities for submission to an arbitration board of five disinterested persons has been gener- ally discussed. At the union mems mass meeting at Labor hall it was hooted down. Mayor Eustis of Minneapolis and State Labor Commissioner Powers were present and addressed the men, urging them to ac- cept the new proposition.
 At the same hour of the day, in another part of the city, President Hill was telling some business men he would agree to any fair propositions for arbitration on the sole condition that the men resume work at once, this same proposal was being missed by the strikers and their friends at the Labor hall meeting. Nr. Hill explained that he could not fight and arbitrate both at the same time, and therefore made this one condition of immediate resumption of work in case arbitration was agreed upon. The only train sent out yesterday was the one bearing the regulars from Fort Smelling under Major Patterson, which went to Devils Lake to nclp Marshal Cronan make arrests for interference with the mails. The company expects to start the usual trains on schedule time, and it will then become clear whether the men will stay by the union and go out or accept the compuny's offers to the krotherhoOds and stay at work
