HARD TIMES.

Three years ago. Mckinley on
the stump begged tho people not 10
condemn his tariff bill during the
first year Of its operation. II was
condemned, however, after short
trial OF it, by great majority Of the
voters OF the nation.
A year later Mr.. Mckinley again
urged that the voters be not hasty
in condeming his measure. Give IL
time, said he, and it will yet vindi-
cate itself. The voters again con-
demned it.
Another year of the continued
operation of the bill has passed, and
its resignation Of trade and indus
try are the ripe fruits Of excessive
protection after three years Of faith
full trial.
Is a longer trial necessary?
Democrats think not: and they pro-
pose to try the policy Of lessened
taxes on the necessities of life, in
order to give relief TO the people.
Republicans say this Democratic
policy will forever ruin the Demo-
cratic party if persisted in. Hence
they are opposing it. Did the Re-
publican party ever before attempt
TO prevent the Democratic party
from injnring itself?
People do not usually condemn
policy they have demanded by a
majority of votes in five successive
elections, before that policy is even
given trial. They demanded tar
iff reform nine years ago by a ma
ority of 1000 600; three years
ago by a majority of nearly mil
lion; one year ago by majority oil
over a million.
To ask the people not to do, now
that it is finally within their power
what they have four times decreed
| with heavier emphasis at each time
shall be done, is to tell them they
are fools and are unfit for self-gov.
eminent. This is what the Repub
can party is now telling them.
The Republican party is exceed
ingly anxious to have the policy o
lower taxes and stricter nationa
economy, rejected before it is tried
The leaders Of that party know that
a single trial of the Democratic
policy will be sufficient to defeat
the Republican party for many
years. to come.
In the language of local Demo
cratic platform, we warn the people
that the forces ofillgotten wealth anc
plutocracy are arrayed against ever,
effort that tends to abolish the pres
ent system of favoritism toward thu
few, or that tends to do justice te
the masses Of the people. We en-
courage the people to stand by thei
colors and never to relax theil
efforts till the burdens Of unequa
taxation are lifted from the over
burdened back of labor, and NOR
fairly distributed upon the wealthy
the luxurious, and the idle classe
Of society.
i Voters, be not deceived on thi
proposition. The party that asks
you to vote against a policy not We
tried, a policy that cannot even yel
be tried for several months to come
owing TO "the laws delay" an evi
incident to our system of govern

A MIXED STORY.
Admiral MellO Reported
to be Dead.
De Cana Said to Have
Surrendered.
Rumors of Important lnsurgent
Victories.
Admiral Benham's Account of the
Exciting Episode in Rio Harbor
on Monday Morning.


By the Associated Press.
Rio DE JANERIo, Jan. 30.-The follow
ing statement has been made to an AS.
sociated Press correspondent by Ad-
miral Benham, commander of the
United States feet in this harbor: THE
insurgent forces on Cobras Island last
Friday fred upon a ship flying the
United States flag. I protested to Ad-
miral De Cana against his action and
his response was that he had warned
the commanders of ships when at bar at
Rio as to the whereabouts of the danger
line. I ordered De CANA to cease fir
ing. Both guns on the island OF Cobras
and the guns of the insurgent war ship
Trajano opened fire on Saturday upon
the bark Agate, vessel hailing from
New York. Iwarned De Cana at once
that if the fire was repeated would fire
back. 1 also warned him if he touched
an American ship or American goods I
would consider him pirate. I told
him 1 would protect American property
from the fire of his guns and 1 should
retaliate upon him for any damage done
unless it was entirely apparent that the
damage was due to chance Shots"
Admiral Benham says he notified. De
CANA unoficially that the firing by
the insurgents upon the wharYeA for
the purpose of merely creating .error
and to prolong the blockade wou'1 not
be permitted, SO far as America ls and
American vessels were concern I'd. To
this communication the insure ent ad-
miral made no answer. The captains
of the American vessels intimated that
they wanted to go to the wharves and
the American admiral notified De CANA
it was his intention to convey them at
sunrise on Monday. The firing that
transplred in transit consisted only OF
a musket shot by a marine on the
Trajano, fired at the Amy, and re-
turn by an American marine on the
Detroit.
No doubt De Cana is in bad way
the proposed compromise has been re-
fused by Peixoto's government and it
seems to be only matter of time when
he will have to give up the struggle.
The complication in the urgent situa-
ton is increased by the absence of De-
Mello. The failure of the latter ad-
miral to arrive to the assistance of the
insurgent fleet has given rise to re-
port that he is dead.

A NOTED LITIGANT.
A Case Lately Heard in SUI
preme Court.
The Appellant Famous New York
Politician and Son-inlaW of the
Late Peter Cooper.

One OF the cases in the supreme
court which 20 over to March, is that of
Abram s. Hewitt, appellant VS.. the
Bsshford-Burmsister Company appellee,
brought up from Yavapsi county in
which motion for rehearingis pend
ing, the supreme court having affirmed
the finding of the court below.
The interest in this case which does
not involve large amount lies entirely
in the personality of the appellant who
is none other than the son-in-law of the
late Peter Cooper, the great philan-
thropist and once candidate for the
presidency on the Green back ticket.
Mr.. Hewitt himself represented New
York city district in congress several
terms and became leader in the house
of representatives. He also bears the
record of having been the ablest and
most honest mayor New York ever had.
He came into litigation in Arizona in
the following manner: Mr.. Hewitt is
the owner of valuable mining property
in Yavapai county. Through his agent,
I. I. Eaman, the property was leased
to Stephen Mott, the ultimate object Of
the transaction being the sale of the
property to Mott. Mott proceeded to
develope it on grand scale but his
management was extravagant and un.
wise. In the course of his operations
he became indebted to Bashford Bur
meister Co. to the amount Of $500 and
when he was unable TO pay suit was
brought against Hewitt az the owner OF
the property though he could have had
no interest in either Motifs failure OF
success, except SO far as either might
afterward affect his ability to purchase
the property outright.
A Yavapai county jury found for the
plaintiffs and an appeal was taken to
the present term of the supreme court
Mr.. Hewitt is represented by Hon. J. F
Wilson, of Prescott.

LONDON, Jan. 30.-Rothschild said to

nouncing the surrender of Admiral De
Cana came from most reliable source.
He had no reason to doubt Its accuracy
The Brazilian minister said he had no
doubt the report was true; that the
final callapse of the revolt was only q
question of few days. The highest
official at the British foreign Office ex-
pressed the opinion that DeGama's sur
render to the United States admiral was
the easiest way out of the difficulty.
The chief question was what would
Admiral Benham do with him. He
could not very we'll surrender him to
Peixoto to be shot and he could not
very well feed DeGama's followers in
definitely.
