~ I, Is. in fact evidence OF the wisdom Of the
neople who smashed Democracy, Its policy and
Its plans. by their votes In 1894 The fact that
wages were put down about 20 per cent all
around. in some branches much more and in
o,hcrs less by the closing Of works naturally
and inevitably following the Democratic success
in 1892 with Free-Trade policy, these journals
are shameless enough to attribute to the Nc
Kinley tariff. because it had not yet been re-
pcaled. The recovery of about half that loss,
which fairly marches with the fact that the
Democrats failed to do half what they intended
and tried to do. these journals quote as proof
that the Democratic policy brings better wages.
And. unlike The SUM- they imagine that the
voters are to be cheated by pretences so inl-
pudently untrue.
We have not yet done with the practical test
Of botched Protection, which the Democratic
party has forced upon the country. In the in
famous barter with sugar and whiskey monopo-
lies the Democratic Congress gave some indus
tries enough protection TO save them from direct
competition, but even these will have 10 share
the consequences If depression Of other indus
tries and of wages generally, cuts down the
aggregate buying power of the people. Also
while some industries got relatively more from
the Bill OF Sale. others got relatively less
than they needed, and the consequences will
assuredy appear as prices return to their
normal level As long as prices were abnor'
mally low here, and wages far below the rate
ncedful for selfrespecting American citizenship,
and the cost Of production was thus reduced the
cutting down of duties made little difference
with some industries But these begin to feel
tha offcrt Of that reduction as wages rise. and
the ablest trade journals are even now stating
that prices approach dangerously near the point
at which foreign competition can close many
American works What the new tariff means for
labor and for the National prosperity the people
will be better able TO judge within the coming
year. when they see how far the volume OF busl-
ness and the wages of labor can be lifted toward
the level Of 1872.

Belgium is one Of the most backward " Euro
pean countries with regard to the education OF
its people. the average Of the population unable
either to read or write being over 30 per cent.
II must therefore, be a subject for regret that
the present Conservative Government should
have identified itself with a measure that can
only tend still further to increase the prevailing
ignorance Unmindful Of that particular clause
in the Constitution which guarantees liberty Of
conscience, that is TO say freedom Of creed, the
Government has just reenacted compulsory re-
ligious instruction in all the schools public and
communal
The liberal law Of 1870 made these schools
secular-that IS 10 say, freed them from sacer-
dotal control and eliminated religious teaching
from the list Of compulsory subjects. The
priests however were allowed facilities FOR
giving religious teachings to those children
whose parents desired 1t, and were admitted ia
the school at stated times for the purpose In
1884. the Conservatives being at that time in
power, a reactiOnary law was passed allowing
the communes TO subsidiZc voluntary school.
alongside. or instead of the public elementary
schools existing under the statutes Of 1879 The
Catholic clergy. as intended from the outset
took advantage thereof To establish schools Of
their own denomination everywhere. the result
being that the public and secular schools
were gradually closed on the ground Of econ
omy. only about 100 being left, Of which moro
than half are in Brussels alone.
The Government has now abolished even
these $50. thus deliberately going back TO th'

have gone before the Harbor Line Board think,
like the man who wanted boil on some other

the Harbor Line Board decided TO let the Sink

bridge. and will then take final action subse
quently.
That harmony resolution adopted by the Dem
ocratic State Committee has borne no fruit
The Shepard Democrats in Brooklyn resolved
last week to send their own delegates to Syra-
cuse: and last evening the State Democracy in
this city also determined to go it alone. An
olive branch was extended by Tammany Hall
I'm the form Of an invitation TO participate in
the Tammany primaries, but 1t was rejected by
a unanimous vote. Then resolution that the
State Democrats send delegates on their own
account 10 the Syracuse Convention was adopt
ed by a vote Of Sc to g. The action Of both the
anti-machine organizations Is straightforward
and consistent. TO join hands with the regu-
lars in either city would be TO sink their self
respect and declare their revolt a failure.

We're Edwin and Mira Hofstadt who
for some time past have been preach

into the hands of lawyer, who at

not to go near them as they would
surely read his mind. However, the

in the Hofstadts and went down TO

THE PRESIDENTS OUTING.

Cape Henry, Va, March 1.-THE
lighthouse steamer Violet, Captain
Donnell in command, ON which MI.
Cleveland, DR.. Reilly and two of the
lighthouse board officials have been
cruising in Famlico bay and other
sounds in eastern North Carolina
since the 9th inst, is anchored abreast
of Cape Hatteras. On account of bad
weather since his departure, the pres
ident has only had one days hunting
yet. That was last Friday, when he
killed sixteen brant- and o1fe large
goose. President Cleveland was upon
deck last night noting the moons
eclipse. The sky was obscured by
clouds and haze so the progress of
the shadow was difficult to follow,
but to compensate for this, there was
brilliant lunar halo. The eclipse
and halo together were a phenomenon
worthy of observation. Mr.. Cleveland
looks to be in excellent health.
