HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.

That the President has divided party
behind him, to which he appeals in
vain for ''such prompt and effective action
as will restore confidence in our financial
soundness, and avert business disaster and
universal distress among our people" is too
painfully apparent, to be denied, and all
indications point to the necessity of con
vening a Republican Congress in special
session, to which the country must look for
relief
The open confession of Democratic ineti-
cheney and failure to meet the pressing fin
ancial conditions of the governments trea-
sury, is not the first instance of its incom
potency in the management of the cations
fiscal affairs.
The New York Press draws a parallel be
tween the years 1859 and 1895, which is
North reprinting in full:
The extraordinary parallel between the
failure of the Democratic party of to-day
and the dis.raceful failure in 1850, which
drove it out of power for thirty-two years
is becomiug palmer every day. Here is Il
page from James Shoulders well known his
tory of the United States, describing the
plight to which the last Democratic Pres-
dent, backed by a Democratic Senate and a
ID ,mocratic House, brought the country 1t
describes the era of 1s57-59
"A restoration of the protective tariff to
revive the home market was the only hope
of recovering from the partial paralysis
which the manufacturing and mining inter
csts had lately suffered under the free
trade tariff of 1850. Buchanan realized
this, and, in his message to Congress, adj
vised IA moderate increase Of tariff duties,
chiefly to relieve the wants of the Treasury
Secretary Howell Cobb of Georgia, with
aching heart admitted the prospect of such
change. But Southern members of the
House were infexibly opposed to such IA
course as well as the pro-slavery Senate.
The Democrats did nothing, and as time
slipped away it looked as if Congress would
expire leaving the government without the
means of meeting its present deficiency.
On the last day the President, in special
message, made a strenuous appeal to the
two houses to save the public credit from
dishonor"
In 1889, as in 1891, the Democratic party
had recently enacted tariff law, which, in
the language of the party platform, was a
''long step toward free trade" The re
suit was the same in 1891 as in 1859. The
revenues of the country fell far below ex-
penses, industry was paralyzed, banks
failed and poverty and ruin stalked across
the land. In the special message to Con-
gress on March 3, 1859, President Buchanan
said:
''This is the last day of Congress, and
there are no appropriations to pay the out
standing Treasury notes. From the infor-
nation submitted by the Secretary of tht
Treasury it is manifest that the present
receipts will scarcely meet the ordinary
expenses of the government. By the end

been, that the great majority are on the
side of the party which has given them
safe and good government. Mr.. Pattison
will be beaten by a larger majority than
has been cast against him in either of his
last two campaigns, not so much because
he is personally weaker in public estima
ton, not so much because he has shown
himself to be a regulation Democratic par
tisan in his recent career, but because his
party is the object of more deeply-seated
distrust among business men and sober
thinking people than it has ever been.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1895-02-09

OF the fiscal year nearly $lS, 1000 will be
due, with considerable amount of paid
for duties at the various ports, and no
means to meet them. Thus the American
people will be dishonored before the
world"
The Cleveland deficit is SO, 600, 600,
where the Buchanan deficiency was only
5000 900, but the country is greater and
richer now and able to hear the greater add
minstrative failure of to day President
Buchanan had one redeeming virtue. He
recognized the folly of his party's tariff
scheme and courageously recommended the
Wing remedy-protectiv duties to increase
the revenue. President Cleveland is less
wise than Buchanan, and the Democratic
party, having learned nothing in forty
years. stands to day where it stood in 1853
on the brink of Punishment from power
during another generation.
History repeats itself and President
Cleveland would do well to frankly admit
the real cause of our present troublc--a
stopping of the channels of national revenue.
The President has no longer party behind
him and the only salvation for the country
appears possible at the hands of the Repub
lean Congress.

THE REASON WHY.

Mr.. L. Jefferson Coolidge, troas.
nrer of the Amoskeng Manufactur-
ing Company, of Massachusetts, has
been interviewed by Boston jour
nal on the subject of the removal of
mills from New England to the
South, and among other reasons
given Mr.. Coolidge said that labor
Is lower in the South than the North.
the mills are nearer the cotton fields.
and that there is large saving in
freightScharges.
Southern railroads. he says, take
cotton rs tifth-class freight. while
Northern roads take 1T as second
and third-class, then coal in New
England cost S4. so per ton, while IN
the South it Is not more than $3.50.
These he thinks are suffi cient rea-
sons why the mills are moving South
and why they will continue to do so.
Further on in the interview thu
gentlemen gave as other reasons
equally as potent as the rest, that
employers IN the South are not
hampered by the restrictions estab.
lished by trades unions; that thew
are not menaced by strikes, OF inter
Tered with by unreasonable legisla-
ton, and that commercial business in
the South is permitted to run in ths
ordinary channels established by the
law OF supply aud demand, which
conditions do not always obtain in
New England. Upon the whole
