Artists and BusheImen.

FOR several years past our homo tailors
have been complaining OF the loss OF Gus
tom from which they suffer- because OF the
great quantity OF London-made garments
brought hither free Of duty by American
travellers. According to a circular to the
trade prepared by the Journeymen TaIlors'
Protective Association. tho value OF this
foreign clothing aggregates millions OF
dollars annually, the purchasers OF it. too.
being among the very best customers that
the best domestic tailors could have.
Probably this estimate OF value Is much
exaggerated; but the tailors know their
own business. and undoubtedly tho foSeIgn
competition against which theyiprotest Is
serious. or they would not now DO making
the concerted EFFORT to overcome It explained
In the circular. As FIRST measure Of relief.
they want the value OF the foreign-made
clothing which may be brought In
free by travellers to be reduced from
$3.50. as provided in the WILSON tariff. 10
$50. IL not 500. As an even more efficient
measure OF self-protection. the circular ap-
peals TO all merchant tailors and Journey
men tailors to unite in refusing to "bushel"
the London-made garments. 1t contends
that this foreign clothing. even when it
comes from the hands Of the most fashion
able OF London tailors. is UNIT To wear"
unless bushelled. or. in other words. altered
to suit the American proportions.
For instance. q delegate to the meeting Of
the association in this city last week. said
that Mr.. CORNELIUS VANDERBMT was
obliged to get New York tailors to rem
edy the boteh q distinguished London
tailor had made OF clothes ordered from
him. The association asserts that lin
style and Cnish and thoroughnsss OF work
manship" American garments are sups-
riOr to the production OF any foreign
tailor; and hence the circular takes the
ground that our home tallors misuse
and degrade their higher artistic skill. and
tniure their common interests by D0shslllnK

don misfts cannot have them bushelled
here. IL argues. they will be forced TO TO to
home tailors In the first place TO get we'll
hitting clothes. "Bushel no more English
made clothingf" exclaims the circular.
That lie fair enough. II the tailors think
such bushelllng IL hurtiul TO their interests
as producers, they have a right 10 decline
to do It: but when the association goes
further and calls for the blackllsting OF
Americans who exercise their right TO buy
their clothes where they please. It goes too
far. and becomes foolish. What would the

probably. would enjoy the distinction It
gave them. 1t may lie in bad taste to wear
an English coat II q more artistically fash
toned coat Of American make can be had:
but there lie no disgrace In II.
Otherwise we are firmly on the side OF our
tailors. 1t Is outrageous that artists UNI

should be degraded to serve as bushelmen
TO repair English tailoring deficiencies. At
the same time, we invite the attention Of
the Journeymen Tailors' Protective Associ-
alton to the truth that IL the platform OF
the Democracy, adopted at Chicago. were
honestly carried out. they would have
nothing to complain Of. Under that plat
form every article brought into this country
from abroad would be subjected TO reve-
nue. duty Of at least 50 per cent. ad valorem.
There would be no free list whatever. and no
reason for anybody's buying cheap and ILL
fitting clothing in foreign countries.

His concluding words: Resolve as We NAV in

IL follows that Gen. Sickles Is not fayorite

the amenities OF the White House. He settled
that when, during his speech. he condemned

Cold Comfort for Mr.. Cleveland.

The Hawaiian resolutions adopted In the
House on Wednesday laid down certain dis
tinct propositions as expressing the opinion
OF the Democratic majority:
l. That the course Of Minister STEVENS
Gin employing United States naval forces
and illegally aiding in oyerthrowing the
constitutional Government OF the Hawaiian
Islands" Is condemned as contrary To
the traditions of our republic and the spirit
OF our Constitution"
ii. That the course OF Mr.. CLEVELAND in
interfering for the overthrow Of the exist
ing Government OF Hawaii, fully and Of
flcially recognized by him. constitutes the
enunciation by him Of the principle that
Interference with the domestic affairs Of an
independent nation is contrary to the spirit
Of American institutions"
III. That the annexation OF the Ha W allan
Islands 10 our country. or the assumption
Of a proteetorats over them by our Govern
nent. is uncalled for and ineIpedient.
~. That the people OF that country
should have absolute freedom and indepen-
denee in pursuing their own line OF policy"
V. That We assume an effective proteeto-
rate over them by warning all outsiders
that foreign intervention in the political
affairs OF the islands will not be regarded
with indifference by the Government OF
the United States"
1t will be observed that the policy Of in
fanny is not justified. but IL rather con-
demned by inference. though by a childish

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1o.-Frank A. Flower. pro-
prietor Of the Superior Leader Superior Wis J.
who 10 interested In the Wilson bill said to
THE Sun correspondent that while the inter
nal revenue clause OF that measure has been
lauded as enlarginG the waning Federal reve-
Dues by increasing the tax on whiskey from
30 cents to 81 per gallon. the practical opera
tion OF the law will be greatly to reduce the
Government income from whisky. and for
some time perhaps cut of receipts from that
source altogether
He said: By the provisions OF the Wilson
bill the bonded period 10 extended from nve to
eight years That Is to say. whiskey may be
stored In Government warehouse for eight
years without the payment OF any tax. and
then must pay 81 instead Of 90 cents per gal
Ion as now. But section 81 provides that the
tax shall DO collected not on the amounts in
thecasks when entered. as now. but upon the
amounts found therein on requirement II ap-
plication for requirement be made within six
years from date OF entry OF the packages.
The bill also provides the amount OF shrink
ago to be allowed on requirement to be one
gallon In forty for storage OF two months or
less. two gallons for i've and six months stor-
age. and so on to III gallons for 81. 90. 90,
40. II. ana ~ months. the longest period
within which requirement may take place.
though the whisky may remain In store to the
end OF the eight years before paying the tar.

$3.50; under the Wilson bill. II the package re-
mains in but a single day. Il 10 not $40 but
