The Chinese tore up the first railroad
from Peking to Tien-Tsln a quarter of n
century ago, and are now going to lay
down another this time to stay. A new
light has dawned on them, not of sun or
star or meteor or comet, but raging out
of the bulls eye of the locomotive, and
they correctly recognize in it the pillar
of fire which Is to guide them out of the
night of their bondage and isolation. AS
soon as they get used to the scream OF
that vehicle and welcome its advent
among them, as they are sure to do in no
long time. they will find that they have
embarked upon a new national career,
and outside people will find that 1t is not
so easy a matter to whip them as for

The Tacoma News couples with high
praise of Mr.. Cleveland's latest message
this evasion of facts:
THE Republican congress may and
probably will evade the problem set be-
fore it. But to eyade 1t is merely to
postpone the day of action, and 1t is now
not unlikely that before the next election
one or both parties will be compelled to
take a definite stand on the question of
revision of finnnce1."
This is stuffed with error. There is not
Republican congress. There is a Re-
publican house. The majority of the sem
ate consists of the several varieties OF
Democrats, and the cranks who are most
Familiarity and perfectly designated as
Pops. 1t 10 well known there is not
Republican majority in the senate. II
was the Democratic party that at the
latest date that any party held the SEN
ate, had that responsibility; and they
have ever since been complaining that
four senators blocked the way of reform
by insisting upon more revenue than
could be gathered by the operation Of the
Wilson bill That shameful bill was
drawn to force the income tax upon the
people. the South making the complaint
of paying too much for pensions, and
wanting the incomes of the capitalistic
states cut into to provide an equilibrium;
and Mr.. Cleveland was in this game.
There is no doubt about what the Repub-
llcans mean to do when they have the
power. They will have more protection
and reciprocity and revenue out of the
customs duties. There is no evasion in
that. The only evasion is in the presl-
dents proposal of impossibilitlos
