Letter From the Dominion Regard

The Provisional Government has
been in correspondence with the

but it miscarried and has only
lately been received by the Govern

forth by its sleeping partisan. tho Indian

THAT the Populists have advocated the income tax
Il no objection to It"
Our Populist fellow citizens may advo-

American Constitution and the Star Span

credit upon the fame of any OF them. That
does not touch the question OF the income
tax. The Populists are for the income tax.
not as a common treasure of all American
citizens, or as an indispensable character

Democrats or Republicans.
A more intelligent choice ola distinguish
ing principle could not have been made.
The income tax makes the Populist party

In making the Democracy Democratic.

candidate for the Presidency must have at
least 4SO votes. OF the two persons thus far
proposed for the office In definite and or
ganized way. II. CAsIMIR PERIRR and N.
BRIssoS. only the former has at present
a sufficiently numerous following. The
strength of NJ. BRIssoS was tested in the
recent election Of a President OF the Cham
Der OF Deputies. and the inference is that
at the utmost he could not secure from
the lower House more than $50 votes In
a contest for the Chief Magistracy. As,
In addition, he could scarcely count on the
support of more than fifty Senators. his
success seems out OF the question. On the
other hand. should the present Premier, II.
CAsIhIR PERIER. be as strong six months
hence as he looks to-day. he would be backed
by some 800 Deputies and over $50 Senators,
and could thus gain the Presidency. with a
good many votes to spare.
However. the ostensible preponderance
of the present Premier is no greater than
was possessed at one time by N. JULES
FERRY. and subsequently by NJ. DE FREYoI-
NET. Yet. when the post Of Chief Magis-
trate had TO be filled on the resignation Of
III. GREW. neither M FERRY nor II. DE

upon M. CARNOT. who was then al
most unknown to the French people. and
whose candidacy had never been publicly
discussed. The very fact that III. CAsILnR
PERIER now seems to have the Presidency
In his grasp, may lead his avowed or secret
competitors to combine to discredit him by
overthroWiBg the Ministry OF which he is

The End Of the Rebellion.

The surrender Of MELLo and his men to
the Uruguayan authorities has completed
the downfall OF the naval rebellion which
began In the harbor Of Rio de Janeiro last
September. It would not be safe to say that
all armed instruction has ceased in Brazil.
since the revolt in Rio Grande do Sui. q
large and important State. had been going
on more than year before the detection OF
the feet, and has never depended on the
latter. Besides, there Is news Of serious
uprising in Pernambuco. But accompany
ing the tidings Of MELLo's disarmament
has come news Of the defeat Of the insur-
gents under SALaADo and PIMA on land:
and. In fact. MELLo's surrender to the Uru-
guayans followed an unsuccessful engage
ment on shore. The abandonment OF his
feet. including his flagship Aquidaban. to
PEIxoTos forces. tells q story Of over
whelming disaster.
From beginning to end the revolt OF Ad-
miral CUsToDIo JOSE MELLo has been fatu-
GUS and preposterous. Complaining OF GER
tain acts Of President PKIxoTo as unconsti-
tutional and tyrannical. he sought redress
by using against the Government forces
belonging to it, Of which he was the chief
officer. 1t was not case OF rival political
factions taking up arms, but the misuse OF
professional authority by the head OF an
executive force. Thus the act was essen
TALLY different from that Of the Gillian civil
war. In which the President and Congress-
were arrayed in open hostility. and the
navy mainly sided with the legislative
branch of the Government. The Brazilian
Government. on the other hand. has re-
NAMED intact. and has held the support Of
the army. the navy alone revolving.
While success might have cured that de-
feet In the insurgents cause. MELLo's coad-
jutor. SALDANHA DA CANA. cut down the
chance Of success by proclamation which.
however vaguely worded. was interpreted
as looking to the restoration OF monarchy
In Brazil. That was a bad mistake. In
spite Of DA GAMA's protest that his words
as to putting the country back into the
hands Of those who had ruled 1t well bore
no such meaning. The insurgent cause had
received q grave. self-inflicted wound. and
the successive surrenders Of DA GAMA's
naval forces at Rio de Janeiro and MELLo's
at Rio Grande do Sui hardly came as sur
prises. No throne can be set up in place OF
republic In the two Americas or In the
islands belonging to them.

The Quorum Hunters.

It seems to US that the Democrats In the
House Of Representatives should give the
Hon. THOMAS BRACKET REED o silver SER
vice or q gold gavel. or some other tangible
and permanent memorial OF their indebted
ness TO that eminent collector OF quorums.
Undoubtedly Mr.. REED himself Is entirely
satisfied with the tribute that he has re-
ceived at the hands of his opponents. but
surely their gratitude to the man who has
saved them from themselves. so to speak,
will not be satisfied so easily. The passen-
gers on q ship that Its own officers have
planted deeply in the mud will at least
pass resolution OF thanks to the pilot who
gets the craft into the channel again.
But whether Mr.. REEDS ability as a
eteersman and quorum harpooner are ac-
knowledged effusively or grudgingly or
not at all. the earnest student OF parlia-
mentary evolution or repression In the
present House must be puzzled by one I'M
answerable enigma: Why didn't the Demo-
Gratis display as great activity In not get
ting quorum to pass the WILSON bill and
the Income Tax bill as they now display In
trying to get quorum2 They could mus
ter quorum to pass measures for the dis
honor and ruin of the Democracy. and they
could not muster quorum for the purpose
OF transacting the ordinary business OF the
House Of Representatives.
Mr.. REED seems to be all right. up to
date; and the House Is up to Mr.. REED.

While their lordships Of the British Ad-
miralty are taking a vast amount OF credit
to them selves for the development OF sub
marine warfare in the royal navy. it might be
as well to call their attention to the fact that
they are indebted to the United States for their
first introduction to this branch OF the naval
service. The Introduction was not pleasant

A Strange Partnership.

The new-found brotherhood OF the free
trade Mugwumps and the bowling Popu-
lists lie phenomenon as extraordinary as
anything on record. The bond Of union is
the income tax.
The Populists and the Mugwumps are
equally for the income tax. The difference
is that the Popullsts love It and want 1t
for itself, while the free trade Mugwumps
hate 1t and want 1t only because they
fear that without 1t they cannot enact
the wILsoN.bill, and thus be able TO exhibit
some sort of result of the long political
agitation which they persuaded Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND to start In 1887.
So the Mugwumps and Populists are work.
ing together: the Mugwumps for the rider
for the sake OF the bill, and the Populists
for the bill for the sake Of the rider. And
honest. straight. genuine Democracy has to
confront and defeat them both.

Tho Administration and Brazil.

The course Of Mr.. CLEvELAND's Admin
istration with regard to the civil troubles
In Brazil. which have now happily come to
an end. merits the approval Of all American
citizens. The attitude Of our Government.
20 far AZ Ia known. has been steadily and
consistently favorable to the maintenance
OF republican institutions In that country.
Buch influence as could properly be exerted
from Warrington has counted for the Bra
lillian republic and against its enemies.
It 10 pleasure to record the fact that In
this respect the policy of Mr.. CLEVELAND
and Mr.. GBKsHAM has accurately repre-
scented the sympathies and wishes Of the
American people. Back Of the immediate
personal ambition OF the leaders Of the
Brazilian rebellion has been the idea of O
restoration OF the empire. The imperial
istic intrigues. as there Is reason to believe,
have derived aid and comfort to q con-
siderable extent from British and other
European sources, but there Is no reason
to believe that the plot to overthrow the re-
public in Brazil has been countenanced In
any way. direct or indirect. by President
CLEVELAND and his Secretary Of State. As
far a. they could they have befriended the
republic from first to last.
This would seem to be no more than the
obvious and ordinary duty Of an American
Administration. Nevertheless, Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND and Mr.. GRESHAM deserve praise for
successfully resisting the temptation to use
the power OF this Government to help In
boosting monarchy back upon throne.
