who passed to the other side Tuesday night
Is said to have confessed at the end that be
hal no hope in the future A. he bad
had NO consolation in the past. Pos
sessed Of an ardent, sanguine tenn
permanent that led him to undertake
ings which would have deferred . man Of
what Is termed more practical turn of
mind he could not look back upon his past
without feeling that bis fondest hopes were
unrealized, his i'll treatment unavenged.
At the end Of his days he had been com.
PEELED to look to his daily labor with the
pan for means Of existence. He had also
outlived the adulSAon which at one time
would have ruined 3 man Of less fine
mould. In this view of lis life
it IL not strange that he could no. look
ahead with hope for the future Of the world,
To those, however, whose eyes have not
been blinded with the adversely which came
to Kossuth as 1t Is very likely to come to
such radical reformers who outlive the days
OF their aggressiveness, there is bright
hope Of the future. There must be
such ~ the great enthusiast and patriot who
dare verifying for their beloved Hungary
nd II they fall in the front Of the battle
they are thrice happy but if they survive
they suffer the restraint of circumstances that
do not permit social revolutions to be accom-
plished in minute or eyeu in lifetime.
There is not only bright hope of the future
but there 10 good reason for such hope il
we 10 no farther than the heroic example
which Loui. Ko..nth has furnished.
Tho tariff iniquity has been reported to
the Senate by the committee with few
changes, especially ia the sugar schedule
which favors the sugar trust. The bill pro-
vides in its present form that; all sugars
testing not above so degrees, l cent; from
so to 90 degrees, .0l Of cent for each de-
gree; from 90 to 9s, .02 Of cent for each
degree; all sugars testing sbove9S or above
no lG Dutch standard in color is of cent
per pound in addition to the duty on sugar
testing above so degrees. The worse than
silly section for the abrogation of the Hawa-
iian treaty is stricken out; the reciprocity
clauses are fxed 90 that there cannot be
the least doubt but what the present ad-
ministration would strangle all the good re-
suits which have accrued from the reci-
procity brought about by the last admins
tfation and which served to widen the mar
kets Of the American wheat grower ~ we'll
40 manufacturer. The lime manufacturers
Of ,his country evidently haven't the "pull''
with the Law making powers which the
Frank Jones syndicate has for the inade-
quate duty Of 20 per cent. has been still
further reduced by the Senate committee
to Is per cent. Senator Murphy's ''pull''
has also been sufficient to raise the duty
on collars and cuffs from AZ to IS per cent.
and he may by this means be able to keep
HE Troy constituents in line. Az whole
the bill is not an improvement on the one
which came into the committees hands and
10 ON the contrary more elaring example
OF favoritism, pandering to trusts and tes-
tionalism and, fully - great menace to the
best Interests Of this country - whole.
