NEW sEcRET POLITICAL SOCIETY

The Supreme Temple Of the Silver
Knights of America" is the latest Sc
cret organization to enter the political
field. 1t has capital stock of $780,
600. AS declared in the charter, the
objects Of this association are to work
for free silver coinage by all lawful
means. to make silver a legal tender
for all debts, and to collect and dis
burse money for the accomplishment
of these objects.
But if the aims of this association be
lawful and laudable. why resort TO Sc
crecy? And why create an enormous
capital. besides collecting sums of
money for disbursement? In the alb
sence of an answer to these pertinent
inquiries. the Philadelphia Record says
an explanation may be found in the fact
that Senator Stewart, bonanza miner
of Nevada. is the founder of this secret
society of Silver Knights" and in the
report that behind the agitation for
free silver coinage is syndicate Of
spectators who represent a capital Of
not less than S5O,00O,0oO of stored sill
YER bullion Who other than owners
of silver bullion could have such an
interest in its free coinage as to raise
a secret society, with a capital of $780,
600 TO promote its success?
Sensible citizens will give this Or
der Of bogus Knighthood and its Su-
prone Temple Of Silver a wide berth.

Tn 1892 Gen. Weaver, the Populist
candidate. polled a million votes and
had % votes in the electoral college, an
unheard of thing for a third party Of
late years. But that was the Populist
party's top notch. Ii has since declined
until in 1896 it is likely to cut no
greater figure in the calculations Of the
politicians than the Old and now for
gotten Greenback party.
1t was born about 1890, and at once
sprang into astounding success. 1t
elected the governors and State officers
of half a dozen States. and while its
actual voting strength in Congress was
never so very great, yet in both the OLD
parties there was strong sprinkling
of men so tinc.ured with Populistic no
tions as to give the new party ficti-
tious and temporary appearance Of
strength. The million votes credited
to H in 1892 it never actually possess
ed: that total included thousands Of
votes got by fusing with other parties
on presidential electors.
PopuHsm was shor,-lived. To-day
it is practically dead. Before 1896 the
last vestige of its folly will have been
erased from State as from national
statute books. Though it apparently
still possesses a balance of power in the
United States Senate, it will undoubt-
edly be absorbed in the silver craze
and both be buried in the same grave.

TARlFF AND RLOODY sHIRT

The Providence Journal thinks that
the tariff has become the bloody shirt
OF to-day.
This is very neatly put Certain it
IS that the politicians take longer to
find when a topic is worn out or super
coded in general interest than the peo-
pie, but the politicians will find it out
sometime and all the sooner for making
too protracted experiments with the
peoples patience.
1t is that politician of vast practical
experience. Senator Quay, of Pennsyl-
vania, who now thinks there is one
more President in the tariff.
Democrats will be more than willing
TO meet thein Republican opponents on
this ground in 1896 But with prosper
ity and higher wages confronting them
at every turn under the new tariff and
the facts giving the lie direct TO all
their past assertions and prophesies. it
puzzles US to know what kind of argu-
ments the apostles Of high tarif pro-
pose to resort 10 next time.
THE TREASURY DEFICIT
The constant howl Of the calamity or
gans just now is that the new tariff has
caused an enormous deficit in the public
finances. which will be S5O,OOO.OOO by
the close Of the month. Now, the official
reports show that whatever the cause Of
this deficit may De it is not due to the
new tari6. The receipts from duties on
imports this fiscal year, it is figured,
will amount to Sl53.61S,962. 1t should
be borne i'm mind that the revenue for
the year was affected 20 the amount of
not less than S1O.000.000 10y the free I'M
portation of sugar during the months os
July and August 1894. in anticipation
Of the duty In the last fiscal year Of
the Mckinley tariff. ended June 80.
1894 the total revenue from customs
was S131. S1S,530-or more than So. O0O,-
coo less than the actual revenue FOR the
FIRST year Of the new tariff, which does
DOt look as if the new tariff has de-
Spoiled public revenues from customs to
any serious extent, but rather the op-
poSite
1t will be said that the small revenue
from customs in the fiscal year 1S9S-94
WIS due to the great depression of trade.
This is true; and it is true also of the
largest part of this fiscal year under the
new tariff. In the three full fiscal years
under the Mckinley law the average
revenue from customs was $17O,S75. SOB.
II is clear that under normal conditions
of trade the new tariff will yield as
much or more revenue TO the Treasury

while greatly reducing the burdens ol
taxation upon the necessaries OF living
and the raw materials Of industry. II
/ is lust as clear that the calamity organs
are disappearing the new tariff in Ct
tributing to it the Treasury deficit.
The official reports show plainly
enough when this deficit has arisen. In
1891 0he first year OF 4IcKinleyism) the
expenditures amounted to S409. 7SOO16,
and the total revenues amounted to
1892 612447. In 1892 the expenditures
were $3.50. $3.50. and the revenues
$685.. 937.7S4: and in 1893 the eXDendit-
ures were $39O.1S6,69S, and the revenues
$685.. S1S.62S. In these three years the
revenues are seen TO have been nearly
s5O.0OO.OOO less than were the ordinary
expenditures of the Government. In
1894. the last full year Of the Mckinley
tariff. the expenditures amounted TO
367.746.S67 and the revenues to $297,-
722.019-a deficit of S70,OOO00O During
the four years Of the Mckinley tariH
the revenues fell $12O,OOOOOO below the
expenditures Of the Government.
Yet. with unexampled gall, the cal
amity organs continually assert in face
of the official reports, that the Treasury
deficit was caused by Democratic tariff
legislation. In truth, the new tariff,
combined with skillful financial man
agement. has already begun to diminish
the Treasury deficit, for which the Nc
Kinley act and Republican eXtraya-
gance alone are responsible.

FAvORs SMALL MEN AND HORSES
General Dragomirors Opinion On
Cavalry Requirements.

General Dragomirof has ex-
pressed his dissent from the views
of some English officers who
praised the French regiments of
( the line. but thought less of the
cavalry. Fine, big horses. says
the General, may be no god at
all for cavalry purposes. 1t is a
mistake to require big men and
massive horses; both want plenty
of food and at regular times.
Mettlesome little men and horses
are incomparably better for all
present.day purposes. Who wants
them now to charge squares?
TN ey are chiefly good AS advanced
guards and as scouts in strange
country.
The Cossack horse, which is
not much bigger than pony, is
worth q d,zen less spirited big
cavalry horses such as the Eng
lish admire. The General has
also had his say about balloons.
They are very little good. in his
opinion, unless to the enemy. A
balloon is a traitor, in the sense
that it reveals the whereabouts of
IAN army, which might without it
remain concealed. Those in it
get deceptive notion of the sur
face Of the country, which looks,
unless where there are high hills,

tall tree on an eminence is
better point of observation. The

nave been received of the loss of the
French steamer Dom Pedro off Cape
Corrobado on the west coast of Galacia
Monday. The weather was fine and the
sea calm, but the Dom Pedro struck the
rocks, which are difficult to locate, even
IN good weather. There was a terrible
shock as the steamer struck, and a
panic followed, especially among the
women, causing all the other passengers
to lose their heads. They tried to seize
boats, life preservers, and other objects
capable of supporting persons in the
water To prevent the passengers sink
ing the boats in lowering them, the cap
tain was obliged to threaten them with
revolver in hand Many persons kept
af1oat after the steamer foundered by
cl1nging to the wreckage until rescued
by fishermen from the shore. 1t is esti-
mated 100 persons, most of whom were
passengers, lost their lives.

GEARY CHINESE ACT CONSTITUTIONAL
Court Passes Upon the Delegation O
Summary Power to COLLECTORS

81
Washington, May 27.-The supremI
court today affirmed the constitutional
ity of the Geary Chinese exclusion ad
in the case of Lem Moon Sing, a Cali
fornia Chinaman, who left this countn
and was refused admission. Justice Han
Ian, in his opinion, said the statute en-
trusted to the collector the power d
passing upon the facts.
Lem Moon Sing contended that he had
acquired a domicile as citizen of thu
United States before the passage of the
exclusion act. The justice said If the
courts were to review the decisions OF
collectors in such case, it would brine
a great many cases before the courts
and defeat the intention of congress I'd
have the law enforced by the legislative
officers. The only remedy of appellant
was an appeal to the supreme officer OF
the collector, the secretary of the treas.
ury.

an opinion as to the merits of the case,
and the judgment below denying the
