Even Il tariff bill for revenue only would
be more acceptable to the republicans and
the country in general that the deficit pro-
ducing and industry destroying measure
which bears the name of the rcpresc NATIVE
from West Virginia, Mr.. Wilson; for bill
drawn for the express purpose of providing
revenue would afford a degree Of incidental
protection of which the trainers of the pre-
sent administration tariff bill have apparently
matter of course is that the democrats
felt that they must make some show
of reforming the tariff or they would be
unable to give any excuse for existing as the
party in power: and SO the congressman en-
trusted with the delicate duty of fOrmulat-
ing measure that would demonstrate to
the people that the democratic party had IA
mission, went even further than the demo
cratic creed had ever before advanced in
this direction, and prepared a bill which
confessedly will fall short $50, 900, 600 or
more of producing sufficient revenue to meet
the current needs of the government Ih,
is the sort Of stuff of which alleged demo
cratic ''reform'' is made.
Present advices from Washington indi
cate, however, that the Senate will b.
wiser in its generation than was tho House.
and that it will also exhibit some degree of
craftsmanship a, well as common sense. No
man of good Judgment would regard bust
ness or industrial policy as sound that would
result in the production of less income than
yet that is lust what the Wilson bill in force
would do for this country, according to the
statements of the trainers of that measure
rs well as the message submitted to Congress
by President Cleveland.
According to the announced programme
of the Senate the threatened deficit which
would result from the operation of the
House tariff bill will be obviated by restor-
ing sugar and coal and some other articles,
if necessary, to the dutiabe list II is true
that this action will be backward step rs
compared with the course of republican
Congress in placing sugar, which we mostly
import, on the Tree list, but even that would
be preferable TO the passage of measure
which would make a large increase of the
national debt each year inevitable.
Such step would, moreover change tn,
| Wilson bill from u weak makeshift and hol-
low pretcnce to a measure having some som
blancc of wisdom. at least from a business
standpoint, and all citizens who have the wei
fare of the country truly at heart will hope
that the Senate viii transform the Wilson
bill from Il deficit making measure to a bill
| which will he at least for revenue, Otherws,
the present Congress will go down in his
tory as one that was fully unable to under
stand the financial necessities of the country
and one that sacrificed the countrys finan
cial integrity to the fetch of party policy.

We call the attention OF our readers to
the summary Of opinions, printed in another
column. in relation t. the governor ques-
ton. 1t is significant that there is no other
name mentioned in connection with the re
publican nomination than that Of Col. L. A.
Woodbury. and the extracts referred to fur
nish an excellent idea of the estimation in
which he is held. Private conversation dis
closes the fact that similar sentiments are
held in all sections of the State. and each

he will be nominated for governor without

If residents of Vermont are inclined to
complain over the increase in rates of pre-
MUM for fire insurance, they must blame
those whose criminal carelessness has re
suited in so many destructive fires in this
State during the past few years. In this
case an ounce of prevention is often better
than n whole fire department, especially
when the steam fire engine is frozen.

The negotiation of the commercial treaty
between Russia and Germany seems to have

from the pledges of friendship between the
statesmen of the Fatherland and the empire
of the car at the banquet given to the Rus

of Emperor William and Bismarck was not
only happy omen, but the latest stroke of
German diplomacy appears to be almost

Those who have watched the progress of
the various projects in Vermont for the
transmission of power by electricity, as well
as the industrial world in general, are inter
ested in the success of the effort to profit by
the immense power of Niagara Falls. The
manner in which the electric power station
on the WinoOski river is working has pre-.
pared people in this immediate vicinity for
almost any wonderful result in the direction
of development and transmission of power
by electricity, but of course IA project of
this kind is not to be compared with the
mammoth undertaking at Niagara Falls,
which has progressed 50 that its success is
already assured.
The test of power obtained from water
passing through the tunnel at Niagara is
described as very successful as well rs
gratifying. The penstocks were filled with
water and the pressure gradually let on Ia
the wheels, which moved perfectly without
jar. The first power developed is that for
a paper mill, and its measure is 1000 horse
power. The head of water is lao feet and
