Laws of Supply and Demand.

In the face of hard times Readings
coal output for June beats all previous
records, it is said. 1t reached I,747, so7
tons, being 71r73 tons more than
ever before. The general boom OF
business in consequence of the demand
for the commodities of life which
have been tied up by the strikers, and
in consequence of the general close
up of our cunning high protectionists,
will soon be felt now that the pro-
tectionist has won the victory in the
halls Of legislation. But would the
high protectionist avert tariff reforma-
tion proper in the near future he
must win at the polls and change the
political complexion of the House
and also of the Senate. In other
words he must win and not lose at
the polls on the very tariff issue that
defeated him when Cleveland was
elected. We are inclined TO doubt
that the masses will be satisfied with
such half way tariff reformation as
the present bill will give us even if it
passes without further emasculation
through conference committees. The
sovereign demand is imperial when it
knows for certain what it wants.
Though politicians often delude, mis-
lead and fool the sovereign power,
yet in the language of Lincoln, "they
can't fool all the people all the time,"
though they can fool some Of the
people some of the time and some of
the people all the time.
Nor are the laws of supply and
demand entirely within the control of
our politicians and spectators who
of course would be pleased to control
them. There is evidently a higher
and confounding influence wisely ope-
rating among selfish and vain humanity
and it not only confounds the wise
but as Paul says, 1T enlightens and
elevates the foolish"

Internal Revenue.

AS to the financial situation in
governmental affairs competent and
impartial observers remark a sigh,
diminution Of receipts from customs
but very large increase of receipts
from internal revenue. Our law makers
with a cunning quite characteristic
among them these days, so shaped
the legal exactions put upon distillers
as to give the poor fellows good
chance to anticipate the increased
taxation, SO that by paying in advance
on intoxicants in stock they can save
millions and practically avoid the
force Of the law for the present and
in fact until the great stock on hand
is consumed. By this time change
for the better is no doubt anticipated
by those who make the goods and
pay the revenue. If any body doubts
that money counts in law-making
these days they can clear up all doubts
By just noticing how cunningly
matters are regulated where millions
are involved not only in the luxuries
but also in the necessary commodities
of life.

Portrait of the Conservative Senator.

The conservative senator. He
hardly trusts himself. He surrounds
himself with secrecy. He loves the
secrecy of the caucus and the COM
mittee room. He is always in favor OF
exacting an obligation of secrecy from
all who share his counsels, or whom
he is compelled to admit into his
confidence in ever so slight degree
Secret interviews at his own house or
that of fellow senator, secret con
ferences after midnight in hotel rooms,
are his delight. Anything to keep the
public in ignorance, and to prevent
the people from knowing what he is
about. If he speculates in sugar or
in stock, he does it through the
medium of blind pool" and is
careful not to know what orders are
given or by whom to buy or to sell
He employs cipher when he tele.
graphs, and will make a night journey
to New York at any time rather than
trust the mail The Sun.
