The indianapolis women who have inter-
ested themselves in public affairs to the
extent of putting forward a candidate for
membership in the School Board are said
to be conducting a very active campaign
on the "still hunt plan. 1t is proper that
they should follow up their nomination with
every effort to secure an election. and they
will undoubtedly meet with a friendly re-
ception from a large number of voters.
The general opinion, so far as casual COM
ments indicate, is favorable to the pro-
posed innovation, and the canvassers in
behalf of Mrs. Jenckes will probably not
find their task of persuading voters to cast
their ballots for her a difficult one. The
Journals position on this matter has been
frequently stated. No class of citizens is
more nearly concerned with the operations
of the public schools than women, and at
tention has repeatedly been called by
this paper to the propriety Of
giving them representation on the
board. The opportunity for comforting
this just privilege Is now open 10 the Vot-
ers of the Eleventh district in this city.
In Mrs. Jenckes they have a candidate who
is said to be well qualified to serve public
interests, being a woman thoroughly posted
in educational matters, of practical judg-
ment, and good business capacity. The
withdrawal of Mr.. Coffin, who has served
so acceptably, leaves the field open, and
the people of the north end cannot do
greater credit TO themselves than to elect
the lady named in his place. The election
will be held on Saturday. June 9. and in the
ten days Intervening the members of the
local council and others interested in this
matter will have time to canvass the dis
trict thoroughly and will doubtless do so.
The veterans are passing away, but the
lesson of their patriotic services during the
war and their no less patriotic teaching
since will endure for generations. 1t is a
grand thing for the country to have had a
great body of citizens whose every instinct
pledges them in any and all circumstances
to the defense of the government and to
the cause of law and order. A veteran OF
the war who should take any other posi-
ton would feel that he was stultifying his
better self and throwing away the part,
Of his nfe best worth living. e + impos-

The NoRTH ADAMS STRIKE.

A special despatch to the Boston Jour
nal OF Wednesday says: What seemed
at first to be a misunderstanding only
between the North Adams Manufacture
ing Company and their employees has de-
veloped into a strike. which has pecess-
tated the closing Of the mills. The mills
manufacture high grade of wooden
goods, and some months ago, when the
business depression had developed, the
company was compelled to reduce the
wages of the operatives 10 per cent.
committee of four representing the
weavers called upon Supt. Sykes, and de-
manded that the old wages be restored.
Messrs. Sykes and Penniman informed
the committee that its demands could
not be complied with, that the conditions
of business to-day were more uncertain
than when tho reduction was made.
When the committee reported to the
weavers, they and the finishers quit
work. In the morning the other help
refused to commence work, and the mill
closed, More than 200 are out of work
thereby.
The employees say that at the PRESENT
wage scale the best weavers cannot make
over 81 week, and the money earned
cannot afford them living. They claim
that the company is receiving orders
daily, and there is every evidence that it
is making money. They say they have
read the papers and know that business
is improving, and they must have the
restoration promised last March, when
I'll reduction was made The employees
held mass meeting when all had quit
work, and this meeting was addressed by
Supt, Sykes, who SAID business was liable
to be worse in January than at pre-. ent
because the price of Goods was being
lowered daily. Mr.. SYKES words did not
alter the situation, and the men decided
to remain out, and appointed a commit
tee representing every department to
confer with the employers. President
II. G. B. Fisher returned today from New
York, and the matter will be referred to
him. The mills have heen running al
most steady, 'and only cut of 10 per
cent. was made in wages when other
mills in direct competition reduced wages
20 and % per cent.
1t is believed that the men have been
influenced to do as they have done by
reading Democratic papers, which are
sh outing about returning good times.
1t was told today by one closely connect.
ed with the mills that several large o :
dersssjust accepted by the mills were ta-
ken on the condition that the goods be
sold 20 per cent. below the former cost,
for foreign manufacturers were promis-
'g the same class of goods at that price.

THE EFFECT OF FREE LUMBER,

Those who argued against the removal
of the duty on lumber insisted that just
as soon as lumber was placed on the
! free list the Canadian dealers would in
crease their prices so that no advantage
would accrue to consumers in the United
States from the admission of Canadian
lumber free of duty. That this is to be
the outcome of the removal of the duty
on lumber is already Indicated, unless
the Canadian government steps in, as it
may, and increases its revenue by the
amount which the United States has lost
through the reforming of the lumber
tariff.
1t will be remembered that Secretary
Carlisle's letter to the collector of New
York in discussing the subject that no
discriminating stumpage dues were i'm
posed by the Dominion government.
This statement was true, but it now
transpires that the Quebec government
has begun to impote duty ON wood
products when imported into the United
States, and for pulp wood the Canadian
export duty has been raised from % to
40 cents cord, an increase of 62a per
COuI' IL 10 SHIueuJ, Iu0TeIOT6, JudG INC
Quebec government is determined to
gain portion at least of the profit which
is to go to the Canadian dealers as the
result of the removal by our Democratic
Congress of the duties on lumber, and so
long as an export duty is imposed upon
Canadian lumber it matters little to
American purchasers whether the money
goes into the treasury of the Dominion
government or that of the Quebec gov
eminent or into the pockets of the Co.
madam lumber dealers themselves.
American consumers are the ones to-
bear the expense.
There is another phase of this free
lumber question which is not to be over
looked in this connect n A WE'LL
known lumber firm of this city who, by
the way, are uncOmpromising Democrats,
are quoted by the Burlington Independ-
ent as saying that they ''do not look for
decline in prices, as dealers, both in
Canada and this country, will try to keep
them up"
According to Grover Cleveland and
other Democratic tariff smashers, the
tariff was to be reformed SO that the
people might be relieved from the bur-
densome tariff taxes which they were
bearing in the shape of unnecessarily
high prices, If prices are to remain the
same in spite of the fact that lumber has
been made free, where does the reform
and the tightening of unnecessary bur-
dens come in? Nay more, if the tariff
on lumber was tax and Americans paid
no more for Canadian lumber than they
do now when that lumber is admitted
free of duty, who paid that tariff TX be-
fore?
This is only one illustration of the out
rageous confidence game which the
Democratic tariff 'reformers' worked
upon the people in the campaign of 1892,
but if the result of the elections in Yer
mont and Maine are any indication the
people have discovered the true nature
of Democratic reform pretensions, and
they will relegate the pretenders to de-
served seclusion and disgrace. Free

The CHOICE OF The PEOPLE.

The Empire State, at Saratoga, this
week placed in nomination ticket which
cannot fail of united Republican support.
The candidates are Hon. Levi. p. Nor
ton of Duchess county for governor,
Hon. Charles T. SaXtOn of Wayne cOun-
ty tOr lieutenant governor and Justice
Albert Haight of Erie county for judge
of the court of appeals. 1t is we'll bal
anced ticket, giving each section of the
state due recognition. 1t merits Repub-
lican approval, and it will receive it, No
fault can be found with the personality
of any of the candidates. They were the
free choice of the convention, says
the Troy Times, and they were named
under conditions which gave every dele
gate opportunity for expression of per-
sonal preference. The unsuccessful as
pirants for the several positions left the
convention with no i'll feeling growing
out of their defeat, and the delegates
started for home firm in the conviction
that from their deliberations had come a
ticket strong in every part and framed to
win popular favor and victory at the
polls.
The platform adopted is strong and
patriotic document In clear, vigorous
terms it exposes the corruption and ca
lamity of Democratic rule in State and
Nation, and rightly pu the question of
protection in The foreground, pledging
the Republican party to defend Ameri-
can industries against all assaults"
1t justly arraigns "the Democratic Rep
resent atives from, the greatest man
ufacturiug State of the Union, whose an
nual manufacturing product exceeds
that of the entire South by SJCJO,OJO,C)0,
for their treachery aud cowardce in aid
ing the passage of a sectional tariff bill"
Equally trencbaut and just is its denun-
ciatlon of the annihilation of the wool
industry, the sale of the federal taxing
power to the Sugar Trust, and the in
famous attempt of the Cleveland Admin
istlation to restore a degraded and saw
age woman to the throne of Hawaii.
The platform is in line with prevailing
Republican sentiment throughout the
country in favoring an international
agreement for the use of silver as money
ON a parity with gold.

HAD RATHER PAY TARIFF
CHARGES,

New York is constantly sending abroad
hundreds of buyers into foreign coun-
tries, who add not little to the knowl-
edge which foreigners enjoy of the ad-
vantages of this country. They are jo-
vial, intelligent and expert gentlemen,
the life of the steamship smoking rooms
and the ornaments of Partisan boule-
wards, / met one of them who buys silk
for one of the biggest wholesale houses
in town, and after having sent over his
purchases, he took vacation, and the
results of his observations in France, Bel
gium, Holland, England, Scotland and
Ireland are highly interesting. He said:
"There will be slew of imports into
this country during the next eighteen
months of foreign goods owing to the
provisions of the Wilson bill. The
wooden men of Scotland and England
and the artisans of Holland and Belgium,
as well as the brandy manufacturers and
wine producers Of Franco, arc particu-
larly jubilant. OF course, as middlemen,
we are taking every possible advantage
OF the situation. But for my part, |
would much rather pay duties in the GUS
tom house and sell goods, than to pay
fewer duties and have our country credi-
tors sell for lower prices or keep stuff on
their shelves because their own custom
ers had not money to pay f9ir prices for
anything even when they buy at all. l
am Republican and protectionlst my
self, but business is business. However,
the practical operation of tariff reduction
cannot fail to be disastrous in the end"

QUIET TIMES AHEAD.

Apart from uperfcial and temporary
impediments to return of the lively
times which prevailed before the panic
of last year, there is the more serious
one of a want of new fields of financial
and industrial enterprise. We have
built pretty nearly all the railroads and
telegraph lines we can use profit9 bly,; all
the wild land available for cultiva oion
without irrigation and manuring has
been taken up, and the low price of agri-
crltural products discOurages the en-
plOymenC of artificial aids to fertility;
we neC1 no more mines, iron mills, or
cotton and wooden mills; and, in short,
there is no demand anywhere for great
amounts of fresh capital. Our energies
for the present must, therefore, be re-
stricted to the supply of our daily wants,
leaving new enterprises to more pro-
pitious era. This, so far from bringing
poverty and suffering upon the great
mass of people, it will improve their
condition by distributing employment
more evenly among them. Healthy
prOspersty does not consist of feverish
speculations and the undertaking of a
continually increasing number of money
making schemes, which as we have lately
seen, end too often in Disappointment ana
in a arrangement of industry by which
millions are temporarily left without the
means of earning their bread. Uufortu-
nately, few of us are content with this
humdrum way of life, and seek one more
exciting. We shall get it in the due
course Of events, but for little while at
least we shall have to confine ourselves
to repairing damages resulting from our
latest collapse.-Matthew Marshall.
