THE TCWGE OF BABEL.
History Leaves No Dana on Which to Base
an Estimate of Its Height.

History Leaves No Dana on Which to Base
an Estimate of Its Height.
The exact date of the building of 'sNi1n-
rods Folly" as the Chaldeans say in al
luding to the scripttlral tower of Babel
(the Armenians speak of it as the Tower
of the Confusion of Tongues), or the height
to which it penetrated the rarefed at1nos-
phere of the oriental plains will perhaps
never be known. The date of the laying
of the foundation Of the famous structure
is usually set at 2,247 years before Christ,
or in the year Of the flood, 101
The expression of the sacred historian
that it's top was to reach unto heaven
Is now generally set down as a strong He
brew phrase denoting very lofty toyer,
but not necessarily meaning one that
would reach to the abiding place of the
Lord and his hosts. Proof that this is
probable may be found in several places in
Holy Writ. The walls of the cities of Ca
naan are described by Moses in similar
phraseology. The spies sent out by him
returned and reported that the cities of
that country were great and were walled
up to heaven" (See Deuteronomy i, % and
tx, ~ There is Jewish legend recorded
in the Talmud which tells us that God
did not put stop to the building of the
tower until after it had reached height
of 10, 200 fathoms, which is equal to near
ly 10 English miles.
The sacred historians have not in single
instance left data upon which we can base
a calculation of its exact height and gen.
eral dimensions, and it is because of this
omission, no doubt, that the imaginative
orientals and other ancient writer's have
given such fabulous and extravaganza ira
ditions concerning it. Even St. jerome
allegesfrom the testimony of eyewitnesses,
who claimAto haye seen and examined the
ruins of the skyscraping shaft, that in
his day (born 345 A. d. it was over four
miles high. While considering these I'M
tenable notions it may not be out Of place
to mention that other fanciful writers
make its height range all the way from a
single furlong to 5000 miles in height!

FALSE TO THEIR PROFESSIONS.

The tariff bill has passed the Senate
at last by a vote of 80 to "a. All the
DEMOCRATS but Senator Hill voted for it.
This entities Senator Hill to the distinc-
ton of being the only consistent Demo-
cratic senator. He can boast now not
only that he is a Dem ocrat, but the
only Democrat in the upper house of
Congress, if allegiance to the platform
laid down only two years ago by the
representatives of that party, is to be
reckoned as the true test of Democracy,
The tariff bill passed by the Senate bears
hardly an appreciable resent lance to
the tariff demanded by the Chicago
platform and which the people command
ed the Democrats to make. That tariff
was to be for revenue only. Raw ma
terials were to be on it's free list. Trusts
were to be abolished by it, Protection
was to be completely knocked out be-
cause it was robbery and because it was
unconstitutional. That was the kind
of tariff bill demanded by the Chicago
platform. That is not the kind of a
tariff bill the Senate has passed. Far
from it. The tariff DILL which every
Democratic Senator, except Hill, voted
for is not laid only or even chiefly for
revenue. In some Of its schedulesyits
protection exceeds that of the Mckinley
law. The biggest trust in the land is
fostered and protected by it. Only two
prominent raw matrials appear upon it's
free list, while such raw materials as
coal and iron are ON the dutiable list
And appended to this un-Democratic
and unconstitutional bill is discrimina-
ting income tax. simply for the purpose
of pleasing the Populist party and secur-
ing their votes. This is the tariff bill
actually passed. 1t is undoubtedly true
that this bill will be less destructive to
the country's industries than bill such
as the platform called for. Nevertheless,
the Democrats who voted for it deserted
their principles and were false to their
professions.

Speculation as to thesfate of the tariff
bill in conference committee is now in
order, for there it will go undoubtedly
within short time There is apparently
in the House A strong sentiment in fav-
or of looping off many of the features
which the Senate engrafted upon it, and
restoring it as near as possible to the
form it was in when it left the House.
President Cleveland is in favor of this
policy, and, it is said. will use his infiu-
ence to carry it out. On the other hand
Brice and German are determined that
most OF the important changes made by
the Senate shall remain, and back of
them is the potent influence of the Sugar
Trust. the coal and iron men, and the
Louisiana sugar men. A lively and
probably bitter struggle is impending,

ally suffering. The strike has reached
stage where its causes and the respog-
sllbllty for them are OF no consequence.
he question now is simply whether the
American Railway Union is TO be per-
mltted to hold of up the whole country.
Inc New York Nail and Express has
been comparing the recent appeal of
President Debs, of the American Rail-
way Union, and President CIeveland's
second message to Congress in 1888. Here
IS passage from President Debs's ap-
peal:
The American Railway Cnlon accept
ell the gage of war, and thus the contest
is on between the railway corporations
united solidly upon the one hand, and
the labor forces upon the other. Every
railroad employe of the country S Guild
take his stand against the corporations
IN this fight, for if it should be lost
corporations will have despotic sway,
ana I'll employees will be reduced to Il
condition scarcely removed above chat
tel slavery.
And here Is a passage from President
Cleveland's message:
The gulf between employers and en-
ployed is constantly widening and class
es are rapidly forming, one comprising
Tue very rich and powerful, while in
another are found the toiling poor. AS
we view the achievements OF aggregated
capital we discover the existence of
trusts, combinations and monopolies
while the citizen is struggling far in the
rear, or is trampled to death under an
iron heel.
Z AS they evidently think alike, we don't
see why President Debs should not ap-
ply to President Cleveland for assistance.

Portland has never had a more sue
cessful Fourth of July celebration, all
things considered, than that of yester-
day. The weather was perfect, and for
the most part, the various events of the
day occurred on time, and were carried
through without mistake or accident
Some of the proceedings of boys and
young men old enough to know better
such as the daubing:of houses with paint
the removal of gates aud destruction of
fences-on the night before the Fourth,
transcribed the bounds of legitimate
sport.
