COMPROMISE MEASURE
Is What Senator Walsh Says the Tariff
 Bill Really Is.

WASHINGTON, Aug. A. Senator Patrick Walsh of Georgia, to a reporter of the Southern Associated Press, today said: "The senate bill is essentially a compro mise measure. It represents the best that could be attained during the present ses- sion, and the attaiuable should always be accepted by conservative men in matters of legislation. This bill is an improvement upon the Mckinley law, so that there ought to be no question among tariff re- formers as to it's beneficial effect upon the business interest of tue country. The sen- ate bill Is long step in the direction or removal of protective duties. It IS the be- ginning of the end of the fight for tariff reform. It is in accordance with the spirit and pledges of the democratic party, and the contest will go on until the letter is also fulfilled. No democrat should feil to &C., cept the seoate bill as the very best thing in the shape of tariff legislation that could be obtained from the senate as at present constituted, with the parties so evenly divided in the senate, and rejoice that even such sub stantial progress should have been made In the reduction of duties and the removal of commercial restrictions. Had the demo- crats been united it was possible that the republicans could have filibustered indefi- nitely, and thus have prevented tariff leg islation during the present session. In place or tanning the senate Dfll Wltn lalnI praise and bringing it into ridicule and contempt, the democratic press should use it's influence to create just public opinion as to the real merits Of the senate bill. When properly presented as the best meas ure of tariff reform attainable, the con servative sentiment of the country will settle down to the conviction that very sub- stantial progress has been made iu the direction of real tariff reform and freer trade among the nations.
 'Those who have been denouncing the senate bill as McKinleyism in a modified form should bear in mind that it was im- possible for the democratic majority to do otherwise than adopt compromise meas ure. Great reforms are not accomplished in day. Protection has been iu existence for thirty years, and it will take time to re- move it. The tree has been topped of it's branches and limbs. The trunk and roots will be cut down and uprooted before the administration of President Cleveland draws to a close. The democratic congress re- ports substantial progress and will ask the people for leave to sit again. The demo- cratic party will go before the country on on the record it has made, and it is confidently believed that 1t will be tri- umphantly indorsed by the popular verdict at the polls in the elections this fall for members of congress.

BETTER THAN NO BILL.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-Senator Ransom m of North Carolina says: 'sThe tariff bill is far better than no bill at all. It might still be improved, but we must not forget that 1t reduces taxation and raises sufficient revenue to meet the needs of the govern ment. It does rot carry out the idea of free raw materials, which is an important part of the democratic doctrine, but much may be done hereafter to remedy these de. fects.''

Chicago has evolved a new idea in city
rapid transit. The Northwestern Ele-
waited Railroad company is buying up
the right of way and spending millions
of dollars in the operation to pass its
trains directly through the second stories
of business houses along the route to the
heart of the city. Thus a central depot
will be established, an elevated road will
be constructed, and the streets will not
be INSTRUCTED ordarkened. 1t will prac-
tically be an elevated arcade road, with
the buildings along the route constitut-
ing the arches. This will not interfere
with the business of those who occupy
the houses, and if they are paid enough
for the right of way they will probably
not object. The whole plan looks as if it
would work well enough after people
become used to 1t.

Greece has been severely shaken by an
earthquake. This, together with the mem
DRY of our own seismic convulsion at
Charleston and the present alarming vol
canic activity of Mt. Calbuco in Chill,
tends to shake ones faith in the solidity
of the earth. They tend to show that an
earthquake or avolcano may break loose
anywhere at any time. Calbuco had
never been known to have an eruption,
and it was not till its sudden outburst in
February, 1898, that any suspicion was
aroused that it ever had been a volcano.
Since that date, however, it has exhibit
ed incessant activity and destroyed miles
of the most fertile lands in Chill. Farm
ers living around the mountains base
have been compelled to abandon their
homes.

It is encouraging to find that the gold
production of Colorado is increasing.
Last year the mines yielded 81, SOC. 900
more than the year before, and it is con-
fidently expected the addition to the
amount will be still greater this year.
Perhaps the increase will be enough to
cover a single n of the large gold ship
ments that go out of New York from
time to time every year. On the average
the Colorado gold mines produce nearly
if not quite 81, 000, 900 a month.

If this country had as many railroads
In proportion to area rs Great Britain,
we should have 492, 100 miles, where
as at present we have only III, $50.
Therefore, The Railway Age thinks, we
have not too much railway mileage at
present; that on the contrary we have
not nearly enough. But it will be a good
plan to let a few of Dur roads get out Of
the hands of receivers before urging that
proposition too strongly on the Ameri-
