ANYTHING WILL DO.

When thieves and rogues fall out,
truth comes TO the front. The recent
pow-wow in the United States senate
shed several rays Of light upon the
situation; as, for instance, when Sem
stor Vest said that Secretary Carlisle
had repeatedly and distinctly stated
that the greatest possible calamity
that could happen would be the fall
ure Of any bill, and that no differ
ence in rates should be allowed to
stand IN the way of the Consumma-
ton OF some change Of tariff reform"
Here in q nutshell is stated Che sole
purpose and design Of democracy as
regards the tariff. Here IS ample
proof that the democratic party man.
ayers are using the tariff issue as q
party shibboleth without one lota Of
genuine belief in its efficacy as a
measure Of public benefit or relief.

Will not yield, while the house is in

Atthe beginning of Mr.. Olevelsnd's

public mention that Ex.Secretary

clearly enough the influence which

in the case Of Editor Rosewater Of

not resisted by force is owing to the
fact before cited that these judicial

prediction was made that congress
would be asked to take the duty off
coal whenever that item should be
considered in the promised tariff re-
form which Of course was the chief
concern and mission of the demo-
cratic party. That prediction was
verified SO soon after the coal item
was reached in the house discussion
OF the Wilson bill. It was then that
the concentrated humanitsrisnism Of
representatives began to manifest it.

coal" for the poor American lsborer.
One would have supposed to listen to
the fearful pleadings of congressman
that philanthropy and patsrnslism
had fused and was heaven,be on
dumping tons Of free coal into the
cellar of every poor family in the
country. But back of all this precious
philanthropy, paternslism in the per-
SON of greedy, equity Grover sat toast
ing his sore feet before the cheerful
anthracite CRATE in the White House
slyly watching and waiting for the
time when the tussle would come be-
tween the paternSlistic Hsvemeyer
and his own and Mr.. Whitney's Nova
Scotia coal scheme. War to the knife
between senate and house simply
means a draw game between Have
meyer sugar and Olevelsnd's coal
with the odds in favor of coal and the
'poor man" left out in the cold. Sly
Mr.. Cleveland after playing the game
of non-interference as long as safety
to Nova Scotia coal would permit
played his little joker in a personal
letter to Mr.. Wilson. How perfectly
innocent and entirely harmless that
personal letter seemed on the face of
it. Why should not citizen Cleve-
land write letter TO citizen Wilson
in free and untrammeled country
like ours? And why the piteoUs
condemnation of United States sens.
tors, why the livid rage of Mr.. Cor
man, why the foored rejoinder of
Messrs Vest and Jones, simply and
solely because these senatorial gen.
tlemen know that the entire game is
blocked by the president. The nation
is helpless in his hands. Mr.. Vest
said, "If We 90 into the fight the
president must be behind u.s." And
the willy president had, SO said Sens-
tor Jones, at every consultation tex
pressed the hope that iron and coal
might go on the free list" The
president hoped that circumstances
would arrange that matter, but cir
oumstances failing it became neCes-
sary to coerce, hence the letter to Mr..
Wilson. And that letter is nothing
less than the party whip whose sppli-
cation has lsshed the senate into the
white fury Of desperate protest.
Cleveland and his free coal will win,
unless Havermeyer and his protected
sugar go into q deal that will make
It worth the while of the Nova Scotia
