LARGEST DAILY CITY CIRCULATION,

THE "purely sociaP' affairs where many leading Republican politl- clans accidentally meet in the East, and where politics are not as much as alluded to, are getting to be quite fashionable. Such fellows as Quay. Platt, Clarkson and Carter, not to speak of the non- partisan Ben Har- rison, always, of course, let their thoughts on such occasions run on the condition of the crops.

The woman suffrage question has bobbed ul, in the Utah statehood convention. Women voted in Utah long ago, but this was found to be the strongest prop polygamy had, and the Federal Government forbade it's continuance. In all things the Mormon faith, especially the doctrine of plural, or celestial marriage, has found it's constant upholders in the women. Marvellous as it is, wives urged their husbands to marry other wives, and in some instances their own sisters. They have stood aloof from tfe Gentle society food ing into Utah in late years, and move in their own coteries, unique and exclusive. It is the social fea- ture of Mormonism, and also the clannishness of the sect, which the women will sustain with their bal lots, now that polygamy in practice is thing of the past.

OHIO MKINLEY AND TARIFF

AA
 Republicans, particularly Eastern Republicans, opposed the income tax, like other internal revenue taxes, because they want high protective tariff. They rejoice over the late Supreme Court decision because Congress must eventually provide for say $40, 900, 900 which the income tax was to produce annually, and they believe this may effect a new revision of custom duties, whereby great Americah manufacturing trusts may continue to fleece the people who use their commodities. Republican politicians cannot afford to drop the tariff issue through which they fry the fat" out of the big industrial concerns of Pennsyl- vania and New England.
 But a new idea is taking hold of many non political former high tariff advocates The doctrine that free trade works vast benefits to American workmen and American manufacturers as well, is taking firm root in the land The late im7 petus given to trade in textile fab rics, iron and steel industries, cloth making, etc, has put scores of thousands to work who had been idle and increased the wages of thousands already employed. In the nine months that have passed since these new schedules went into effect the country has witnessed won derful revival of business and mosl marked vindication of Democratic policy, though shorn and crippled by some selfish and designing legisla tors sailing under Democratic colors.
 The Ohio Republican gention of this week in indorsing. Mckinley for the Presidency and declaring protection, takes up the gauge oi rattle against the results of Demo
 ic policy. This on the heels of

AGREEABLE FOR THE CLIENT.
Selected as u Juror to Try His Own
Case.

Pittsburg Times.
A well known lawyer in Australia twenty
years ago used to delight in telling the fol-
lowing story concerning the way in which
he Won difficult case for client: Being
engaged at the time in a different court
to the one in which his case was coming
on, he employed bailiff to call him at
the right moment. When at length his
summons came he hurried off to the court
only to find, however, that the jury had
been impaneled, and the opposing lawyer
had opened his argument. To these pro
ceetiings he Immediately raised an objec-
ton, but counsel for the other side declared
that il was too late for any alterations to
be made as far as the jury was concerned,
to which the learned judge, who was in
testy humor, agreed.
The lawyer glanced at the jury. Yes"
said he. Its quite true that il is too late
to make any objection; the reason why /
foolishiy wanted to do so was because
you have impaneled my client as a Juror
to try his own case. / am quite willing
that it should be SO, however, because
believe that he is fully able to look after
his own interests In his present ad-
yantageous position This was quite true.
His client had been picked out by accident
with the other jurors in the room and,
although he several times tried to protest,
he failed 10 gain hearing. Thus the law
yer gained his case.

Cruel to the HELPLESS.

are more frequent than in any other. The
disclosures Of the Black wells Island
Asylum are not forgotten, nor yet
the outrageous doings at the Stanton
Asylum in Virginia some years ago. 1t is
only few weeks ago that in one of the
New York institutions a patient was
beaten and kicked to death by his at
PENDANTS because their brutal treatment
Of him had aroused his resentment and
melted him to resistance. Numerou SINH
lar instances might be cited, but these few
will suffice.
1t is strange that the general public
does not show livelier concern about
these matters than it does. Every man
and every woman is Immediately and
directly interested. Any family may be
visited by the frightful calamity and the
mind Of some near and dear one may
become diseased SO as to neces sta tie
removal to an asylum. The mere thought
that this one may be subjected to the
brutalities Of doctors or attendants, one
would imagine, should predispose all per
sons to interest themselves In the man
agement Of these places.

1t Is a Very Broad Question.

In response to circulars sent out from the
Department OF Labor requesting labor Or
CARNATIONS to suggest topics for investi-
ccivcd from several of the most important
bodies arguing in support of some plan
to give government work to the unen-
oloyed, and urging this as a consideration
exceeding all others in present Importance.
There can be no question tba this argu-
ment is of the most profound economical
moment. Idle persons cease at once to be
profitable consumers, and must either starve
or become objects of charity They pro-
duce nothing and are a constant draft
upon the vitality of the body polite
1t is question as Old as civic organic
ton itself whether, when men and women
fail to find employment in the haphaZaId
strife of private fields of labor, the state
the burden of non-prcducing consumers by
devising employment which will be useful
and profitable and thus assure steady en-
pioyment for all who desire to work. The
objection is made that such methods are
too parental and not only destroy the
individual independence OF The person, but
also place the government in competition
with private enterprise. Therefore, the
influence of private enterprise. which is but
another narle for the exploitation OF hui
man labor for a profit, has always been vio-
lent in opposition to any extension OF the

reports fly thick and fast every day that
the selections have been made, the pros.
poets are that some time will yet elapse be-
fore the announcement, and that the per
sonnet OF the body will be a surprise TO the
country in its lack OF great names.
Doubtless ex-sccretary of State Foster
could be induced to act as Republican
member OF the commission. and ex-Para-
mount Commissioner Blount might he in
duccd to emerge from the retirement result
ing from his exploits in Hawaii; but it is
ques tionable il either of these gentlemen
would be looked upon as the ideal agent for
the work in hand.
OF course, every American will hope that
as the commission Is provided for, 1t will be
composed of the very best material, but
it is decidedly curious that there should be
so considerable delay in the consunliia ton
OF a work which, was begun with so much
explosion OF muskctry and rattling Of sa-
bcrs.

While we are sending missionaries to
the heather it might not be inappropriate
to do some missionary work at home.
There would seem to be considerable neces-
sity for it when in charitable Institutions,
where shelter is supposed to be given to
children, such cruelties can be practiced as
are reported from westchester county, N.
Y. There is in that county Temporary
Home, and in that "home'' a frail sickly
boy was put in chains and shackles, had to
wear them by day and sleep in them by
night, was beaten, bruised, tortured by
the guards and the superintendent until
his poor frame is near dissolution. New
York newspapers are clamoring for investi-
cation by grand juries Of place supported
by public taxes and existing and acting
under the authority of the State.
Incredible as 1t may appear, great
deal Of cruelty is practiced in public in

1t is evident that President Cleveland Is
either having trouble to secure the services
OF eminent men upon his Venezuelan COM
mission, or has concluded that no such
urgency as was suggested by his message Is
impelling him to complete his work by the
appointment OF the commissioners and put
ting them on the road to look into the bound
airy question
Several conspicuously able gentlemen OF
national reputation have been named as
probable recipients OF the honor, but each
one Of these in turn has denied that even
an official hint has been given him that
his services are wanted. 1t is logical
conclusion, however, that the offer has
been made to several gentlemen, and the
President has up to this time been unable
to gain the assent OF the number desired.

statesmen OF the country, even though
they are out OF an official job al the present

all the bribery and corruption with which
the city has been scandaliZed.
Mayor Swift declared that the spirit OF
anarchy was bred by the corrupt conduct
of representative citizens ''high-toned
business men," patriotic men, ''promi-
