Wilson BIZ and Wages.

1t is regretable that there is such a
lack of sincerity in the discussion Of the
tariff question. The protection journals
are now asserting that the passage Of the
Wilson bill means a great reduction in
wages, and some of the protected manu-
facturerers are taking advantage of this
sort of talk to cut down wages.
In his speech opening the tariff discus
sion in the House Mr.. Wilson, the chair
man of the ways and means committee,
showed that the Wilson bill could not
materially affect wages. What he said on
that subject cannot be successfully con
tradicted Mr.. Wilson asked, How is il
possible for a tarii that only
touches per cent. Of the labor of the
United States TO increase wages for the
other 95 per cent? So far from in
creasing THE wages of labor, the effect
of these high tariffs is to lower them"
Mr.. Wilson declared that 1.-THE supply Of
labor, the intelligence and productiveness
of labor. make its price"
If the tariff controls wages why was Il
that wages did not advance when the
Mckinley tariff was adoptedl
The Philadelphia Times calls attention
TO the fact that there was a marked de-
cline in the wages paid by protected in
dustries Immediately after the passage
of the Mckinley bill. 1t says: 'Pud-
ding dropped from 81 to 1915 ton, then
to 1925 a ton at Pottsville, Reading,
Birdsboro and Pottstown in 1891 and in
early 1892 This, too, when there was no
Wilson bill nor the sign of one. The At
kins Steel mills at Pottsville, the big
bridge works at Pottstown and certain
Reading industries tell a story of wage
reductions following hard upon each
other. This takes no account of the
great war Of the protected industries on
organized labor at Homestead in the sum-
mer of 1892, and the cut in wages then,
not alone in the steel mills, but in the
coke and coal industries"
The foregoing sustains the statement
of Mr.. Wilson, that high tariffs tend to
force down wages. If workmen would
study the effect Of the tariff upoA wages
little more, and pay less attention to
what their protected employers say they
would not be so prompt in signing petit
lions to congress protesting against the
Wilson bill a.,

Senator Voorhees, often entertalns his

Drainage First.

The county commissioners have acted
wisely in giving the drainage work the
preference. No doubt the county roads
are in a bad condition. They are seldom
otherwise, that is, in such condition as
great deal of time and large outlay to
make them what they should be. They
will never be much better until a com
prehensive system of road building is
adopted. The time will come when the
county will adopt a system of that
kind. Until there is such a
system no improvement of the roads will
amount to much, because it will not be of
a permanent character.
What is needed now more than any
thing else is good drainage for the
county. Good drainage means good
health. Every summer, when there ar e
heavy rains and the low places in the vi
cinity Of the city are covered with water,
there is a. feeling of uneasiness, caused by
apprehensions Of sickness. Fevers
of one kind and another make
their appearance and there are requests
for the draining of this or that place.
This condition of affairs has existed for
many years. 1t is true that great deal
of drainage work has been done and its
beneficial effects are apparent, but vast
amount Of such work remains to be done,
and the people will not be satisfied until
it is done. They will put up with bad
roads for a while longer for the sake of
having the lands drained. They value
good health above everything else, and
the securing of good health should be the
chief aim of the county authorities.
1t is to be regretted that the new
Casey canal will not be completed inside
of year. The people have been looking
anXiously for the completion of this work.
1t will drain large section of country
and aid materially in solving the drainage
problem.
The more earnestly and vigorously the
commissioners push forward this work,
the better the people will be satisfied.
Every available means should be used to
complete it. So great is the desire to
have it finished that public sen timent
would sustain the commissioners in neg
lecting other work in order to finish it in
as short time as possible. The most
important drainage work must be done
before much attention is given to other
improvements.

Couldn't Live on His ral.nt.

A good story was circulated at che capitoI

The Hornblower Nomination.

II looks as if the President had de-
termined not to withdraw the nomination
of Mr.. Hornblower for associate Justice of
the supreme court. If it goes to the
Senate with the adverse report which has
been made upon it, there will be lively
fight over it. The fact that the bar asso-
citation of New York has adopted a reso-
luton since the Senate committee reported
the nomination adversely, asserting that
Mr.. Hornblower is qualified for the posi-
tion of associate Justice of the supreme
court, justifies the inference that the
nomination is not to be withdrawn, but
that it is the purpose of the President to
test his strength in the Senate.
The President has made no public state
ment about the matter, but it is believed
he thinks it is Senator Hills purpose to
defeat the nomination. The senator I'M
doubtedly had good deal to do with the
unfavorable report upon it. He does not
like Mr.. Hornblower. They. belong to
different political factions of the New
York democracy. Mr. Hornblower op-
posed the nomination of Judge Maynard
for Judge of the court of appeals of New
Vi hg duu ulu Wndb nc COulu 10
defeat him after he was nomi-
mated. Judge Maynard is great
friend of Senator Hill, and it is
supposed the senator is now trying to
punish Mr.. Hornblower and Mr. Horn
blowers friends for the part they took
against Judge Maynard
There is, of course. question as to
whether Mr.. Hornblower has had suffi-
cient experience as a lawyer to justify his
nomination to so important place as that
of supreme court justice He is a COM
paratively young man and his practice be-
fore the supreme court has not been ex-
tensive. He has had only a few cases be-
Fore shat tribunal, and he was unsuccess-
full in most of them. If Senator Hill is
responsible for the record of Mr.. Horn
blowers practice that was presented to
the Senate committee that passed upon
his nomination, he took care, doubtless,
that none of the unfavorable features of it
were omitted.
That the President is anxious to have
the nomination confirmed is true If it is
not confirmed or is withdrawn he will be
in the position of having suffered de-
feat. Unless he is satisfied that it would
be confirmed, Notwithstanding the I'M
favorable report upon it, it would be ad-
visable for him to withdraw it. If it
should be withdrawn or rejected, Senator
Hill would have the satisfaction of know
ing that he had made point against the
President, If his relations with the
President are understood the more points
of that kind he succeeds in making the
happier he will be-

covered by an item in the legislative APP
preparation bill. The sum is intended to
last through one congress, and the mem
bers frequently take it up in pocket
knives, purses, fancy inkstands or other
novelties to be found on a stationer's
counter-at any rate they seldom leave
any of it over. During the extra session
the legislative appropriation bill was
passed so that members could get their
mileage and per diem, but by hook or
crook the stationery item was forgotten
and left out. AS the members had used
up the appropriation for the previous con-
gress before the extra session had begun,
they find themselves now minus a neat
little perquisite that they miss. The sta
tionery appropriation, had it been made,
would have amounted to S47 600. 1t is not
likely any member win have the cheek to
introduce separate bill covering the
