SENATOR HARRIS served notice
on the Republican Senator's that
his stock of patience is getting low,
by frightening the sittings of the
Senate. 1t is not probable that he
will keep the Senate in session

night for the first few days, pro.
vided reasonable progress be made
with the tariff bill, but he is pre-
pared to put the screws on even
to the extent of continuous ses-
sion, if it be necessary to do so. II
is the general belief that the last
fight Of the Republicans will be
made on the sugar schedule, and
after that is adopted, as it is certain
to be, they will probably agree to
set date for the final vote. 1t is

will be voted upon tomorrow, OF

MIR. sherman's Predictions.


Senator Sherman, speaking OF the
German Tariff Bill, said that he be-
lieved that it would create great re.
action in the country; that distress
must follow reduction OF duties, and
that a decrease OF wages must come.
Widespread discomfort would follow.
These are rather cheap prophecies
They remind one OF the responses OF
the ancient oracles, which were 30
worded as to appear true in any event.
So far as creating reaction is con-
cerned, there are great many who
think that is what the country wants
just now. A reaction from the pre-
vailing depression, with the produc-
ton of which Mr.. Sherman had SO
much to do, is just what the country
wants. The Republican leaders fear
it, hence their efforts to prolong sus-
pense over the tariff.
Distress will follow a reduction Of
duties" But distress is already here.
1t followed the increase of duties. So
did reductions OF wages. 1t is motor
ious that wages have been going down
ever since that great abomination, the
Mckinley Bill, was enacted. 1t is moi
pretended that the very moderate re-
ductions Of duties contemplated by the
pending bill will Immediately relieve
all distress. The best sort of tariff
bill could rot do thst in day. The
prediction that there will be distress
after the Tariff Bill shall be passed il
like one that considerable number OIL
persons will die next year.
| While Senator Sherman was pre-
dieting reductions OF wages as the re-
suit oflower duties, he should have
pointed out what duties are lower than
the Republican requirement that they
shall cover differences in the cost o.
labor here and abroad. Mr.. Sherman'i
party says that is the proper measure
of protection. Yet coal is now taxed
seventy-five cents a ton, and thousands
OF laborers are out trying to get sixty
five cents, or at most seventy five
cents, for mining it, while the foreign
price in competing mines is known tc
be higher than it is here. That pro
tected employers will reduce wages
when they get chance everybody
knows; but It is safe to say that reduc
tions of wages for the next four yeart
will not equal these that have beer
made since the Mckinley Rill became
a law.--CouYier. Journal,

slsMARoK's WASTE BASKET.
II Is MorGue for the Devices Of Ambi
tjouA Self dverttaars

It Is MorGue for the Devices Of Ambi.
tjous self-Advertisers.
Every year, as his birthday ap-
proaches, Prince Bismarck receives
scores Of kilograms from persons who
request immediate replies. Some OF
these dispatches come from men eager
to be received personally at the Fried
richsruhe castle during the celebration.
Others are from newspaper editors who
hope to get reply signed by the old
chancellor, for publication on the
birthday morning. The dispatches end
invariably with the statement that the
answer has been prepaid. Neverthe-
less, they all 60 into Bismarok's waste
basket, which, like everything else
about the old chancellor, Is Of heroic
size.
Bismarck's secretary, In speaking OF
the waste basket, recently gave q
Vienna journalist some information
which is Of special interest to Amer
leans, as from the United States come
most Of the kilograms intended for
self advertising purposes. Here is o
dispatch received recently By the
prince from New York newspaper,
whose name was withheld:
"Your Excellency: Ten million Ger
mans listen for your voice, and wish
to know whether you will again I'M
dertake the leadership Of the empire
founded under your auspices. Ten
million Germans in America wish to
hear from your mouth words of COM
fort as to their native land. Cable an
swer prepaid"
This dispatch was no sooner read
than 1t went into the waste basket.
The idea of answering 1t never entered
the head of anybody at the castle. An
Englishman sent this cablegram short
" afterwards;
Il, the richest citizen Of this town,
have but one unfu1flled wish-4o stand
before the most famous man of the
century and receive the honor of his
acquaintance. If the fulfllment of my
wish should depend upon my giving
any sum of money to any cause or So
ciety, ! beg your excellency to name
the amount and viii at once deposit
the same, no matter how large IL may
be. Cable answer prepaid"
The offer of money YVES as futile as
the appeal of item million Germans In
America, and It followed the latter
Into the waste basket.
After giving several other illustra-
tions Of the voracity of the Friedrichs-
ruhe waste basket, the Vienna Journal
LIST thus warns self-advertisers through
out the world against wasting their
money on Bismarck kilograms:
bismarck has no time nowadays
for prepaid messages OF this sort
Triedrichsruhe is a practical place. His.
tory is still making there, and In the
pauses Head Forester LANCE has his
claims upon the princes time. His
communications do not go into the
waste basket"

An Interesting Inquiry.

A Virginian writes to the Courier
Journal saying that he is confirmed
Democrat, and asks what he is to do
when Republicans taunt him with
the hard times aud violated pledges OF
Democrats. "Must say that Con-
gress and Cleveland will make things
all right? We can not surrender 10
the Republicans you know. AS we
suspect that there are many Democrats
whose minds are running in this chan
mel, it may be worth while to devote
some attention to this question,
There is no reason, We think, why
any Democrat should seek to disguise
his modification and humiliation over
the failure Of Congress to respond to
the expectations of the country The
better Democrat he is the more imper-
alive Is the duty incumbent upon him
to denounce the infdelity of pretend.
ed Democrats, by which tariff reform
has been delayed. In this as in other
matters, the course of honor is the
course Of safety. No true Democrat
can justly bear any Of the blame for
the misconduct OF The mckinley
Democrats" in the Senate, unless he
voluntarily assumes it. To condone
the acts Of these dsserters is to share
their guilt.
So far as the hard times are CON
cerned, the pretense that Democrats
are primarily responsible for them is
simply false and has been often ex.
posed. No intelligent man in the
country believes it. unless he wishes
to believe it for party purposes. That
the delay in the settlement OF the tar
lift question protracts the uncertainty,
and retards the improvement of bust.
ness, is true; but it is also true that
only o few so called Democrats are re.
sponsible for the delay while practically
alFthe Republicans are engaged in OBJ.
structive tactics. The Republicans are,
therefore, far more to blame for it than
the Democrats.
OF course, it is urged, and with some
plausibility, that the Democrats have
the presidency and majority in both
houses OF Congress, and, therefore are
responsible for legislation, as well as
for failure To legislate. To this it
may be said that the Democratic ma
jority in the Senate is nominal, not
real. A majority Of the Senators are
classed as Democrats, but several Of
them refuse to be bound by the plat
form Of the party. They have practi-
cally allied themselves with the Re-
puhlicans, and the unholy coalition, so
far as the purposes Of the alliance ex-
tend, controls the Senate. The party
responsibility based on a supposed
Democratic majority in The Senate dis.

our Foreign Trade,

The reports Of the Bureau OF Stats
tics with reference to our foreighn
trade for the ten months Of the fiscal
year,ended April 80, show a continued
preponderance ofexports over imports.
The imports for April amounted to
$59,57l,475, against $770OO,Oo0 in
April 1898. The exports last month
were OF the value Of $64, 412, 1923, nearly
five millions in excess of those of the
corresponding month last year. Thus
there was q decrease of $17, 800, 900 in
imports. and an increase OF 100000

For the ten months ended April 80

ate for having refused to give their
authority for charges, and requested
the Vice President to certify, in ac-
coloance with the law, their cases
to the United States District At

jury, the committee had folded its
arms and sat down to await the
punishment of the recalcitrant wit
nesses. Nothing could be further
from the truth. The committee
has taken the testimony OF every
Democratic member of the Senate
finance committee, of Secretary
Carlisle and of Representative
Warner, of New York, and several
others and has peen diligent in its
efforts to secure the attendance ano
testimony of other witnesses who
