FOOLISH KICKING.

Some chronic kickers complain be.
cause Secretary Herbert is cruising
along the New England coast in a Gov
ernment boat accompanied by his
daughter, and claim that the inspection
tour is nothing but grand iunketinc
trip, in which Newport, Bar Harbor and
other seaside watering places are TO be
visited at the expense of the Govern
ment. In other words, that the navy
departments chief is using a Govern
ment vessel as pleasure yacht, and is
making Uncle Sam pay for his summer
outing.
The charge is without foundation
and Secretary Herbert is only following
the example Of all his predecessors. Re
publicans or Democrats. General
Tracy, when he was Secretary, used a
government vessel for the same purpose
and had as his guests on board shin his
daughter and granddaughter and several
friends. All the secretaries have taken
the summer season in which to make
inspection tours, and for very good
reasons. They can better be spared
from their duties at the department
headquarters. there is less expense 20
cruising than in the winter months. and
the inspection can be and is made more
thoroughly and more comfortably.
II there is any law which provides
that the inspection Of stations be made
with the thermometer below zero. il has
not been discovered.
Mr.. Herbert has long and ably served |
on the naval committee, he was emf |
nently qualified for the position, and the
attempt to pillory him because he pre-
iers to make his tour OF duty in the
summer time is the most idiotic kind OF
partisanship. II Mr.. Cleveland's cabi-
net was made up OF men as well fitted
Tor their positions as Herbert is for his

POPULIsM MUST GO.

Senator Teller has arrived at the con-
clusion that the Populis.s must 90. and
on his arrival home from Washington
he made haste TO give expression TO his
belief. He declared that 'it must be
apparent to every man and woman at
home, as it certainly. is to all out
siders who are interested in Colorado
that the Populists must go. Ii is not
the question of the defeat of
any individual, but OF the
entire party. 1t is beyond
the Ken OF any man to estimate the dam
age that has been done this State by the
present administration, aud no matter
who might be upon the Populist ticket
III the coming election, whether the
present Governor or someone else. the
election of that ticket would mean
continuance of the present demoraliza-
ton, if not the Fastening of complete
ruin"
All of this is strictly true. and it loses
nothing in the telling.
Colorado has been disgraced befors
the world by her bloody brides Gov
ernor, and plunged into civil war
which, but for the intervention of
United States troops, would have caused
rivers of blood to flow.
The Populistic craze has done more
damage in the West than can be esti- |
mated in dollars aud cents, and the
quicker that Populism is repudiated and
Colorado brought back to the principles
OF Republicanism the speedier will be
its recovery.

A SCHEME FRUSTRATED.

| 1he prompt action of Senators Chan
dier and Aldrich frustrated the scheme OF
certain Democratic Senators who sought
TO provide themselves with campaign
ammunition at the nations expense.
lhey learned that at least half a dozen
Democratic Senator's had prepared elabo-
rate speeches, which it was the inten-
ton to have circulated by the Demo-
cratic campaign committee in the Con-
gressiorl campaign. These speeches
had been prepared without notice to the
Republicans, so that they might reply:
and inasmuch as the Democrats had had
every opportunity to speak during the
long debate and had declined, the Re-
publicans were unwilling to permit the
Democrats to go into the matter and re-
open the whole tariff debate, presenting
the situation as they viewed il in the
light of recent events. Both Mr..
Chandler and Mr.. Aldrich declared
that the Republicans would not
permit these speeches to be
-NssNo' Ahcy cdlu bnere was no quorum
in the city, and as the Senate had de-
ciared that IL was impracticable to have
any more contested legislation at this
session, the Republicans were also nm
willing that there should be any speeches
Tor the purpose of explaining how it all
came about and what it meant.
The Democrats had plenty of oppor-
tunity to speak when their speeches
might have had weight in shaping the
tariff bill, and they refused to use it.
Now when all that is needed is Cleve-
lands signature or the expiration of the
time lir-it to make the bill law, they
want to rush into defence of the indie
Iensible measure and tell how they in
Tend to remedy it by passing separate
'ree list bill in the near future.
They will not be given the opportu-
,ity of circulating their excuses at gov
'rnment expense, and must defend the
Measure they have passed as best they
an when face to face with an indignant
,ublic.

THE REAL FACTS.

The Dem ocratic papers are paradinp
lot of figures to show that before the
Mckinley bill went into operation over
90 per cent of the operators in the cotton
mills Of Massachusetts received less
than So per week, and 81 per cent re-
ceived less than SO per week. They then
add that under the McKin lev bill these
prices were cut down 10 per cent.
which is an absolutely false statement.
Under the Mckinley bill wages were
raised 10 per cent, and not until the
Democracy won its victory in '92 was
there any cut. Then the 10 per cent.
added was taken off TO meet the con-
ditlons that have now arisen, and now a
stu further cut is necessary to meet the
competition that the German bill invites.
Had the Mckinley bill been allowed
to stand without any threat of Demo-
cratic tariff meddling the original raise
would have been followed by another.
This side, however, the Democratic
papers fail to state.

fraser OF Pawtucket, the Caledonian
society OF Fall River, the invited guests,
delegates from Scottish orders throughout

the place of the formation OF the line up
Westminster street to the Doyle
Monument, and down Weybosset street to
Dyer street, and from thence to the Con-
tinental wharf, when the boat for Rocky
foint was taken about 10 o'clock 4.The
sports at the Point commenced with a
scottish reel, and ended with game of
quoits. The day was an excellent one for
playing games, the sports were witnessed
py several thousand people, and the occa-
sion was much added to by a spirited bag
pipe accompaniment by William G. Pur-
die of Boston.

SPAIN SERVES NOTICE.

spain promptly notifies this country
that the Cuban reciprocity treaties will
be terminated as soon as the tax on
sugar goes into effect. After having
tried for half century to secure the
valuable trade of Cuba and having fin
ally succeeded in opening up new and
valuable market for American products
the Democracy calmly proceeds to de-
stroy the new market while placing a
tremendous and unnecessary burden
upon the nation as soon as it gets in
power.
cuba is our natural market and th he
avidity with which her people seized
upon the opportunity offered to trade
with the United States was only one
proof OF the great craftsmanship which
conceived and put into execution the
reciprocity idea.
The Democracy ignoring The opening
up OF the new markets and their value
to us as nation, makes it its first duty
TO destroy as quickly as possible the
benefits of reciprocity by passing legis.
Iation hostile to its continuance.
This is only one of the results of
Democratic tariff meddlng.

! The history of strikes and especially
in the textile industries, shows that
strikes are rarely. if ever, successful.
and only result in producing suffering
and distress among the strikers.
Already reports come from the af-
fected city that purchases are placed on
''cash' basis. This means that credit
will no longer answer to obtain goods.
and If this decision is carried ont it
means fairly speedy end TO the strike.
The times have been such during the
past fourteen months that merchants
~ 'NNA~hNtIcAo are undDle TO
grant extended and unlimited credit.
The retailers have been notified by the
wholesalers that cash alone will be rec
ognized, and this forces the retailers to
adopt the cash system.
Under these circumstances strike
was not only foolish but reprehensible.
The operatives could have adjusted their
difficulties fully as we'll while con-
at work as they can while
ioafing aud if it is impossible for
the mills to pay the old wages it will
not make 1T any more possible for them
TO do so after prolonged and extended

more likely to be met fairly while as yet
the relations between employe and en-
ployer are unbrog,en.
