Agent Wisdom Makes the Suggestion and
Gives His Reason.
Washington, Nov. q. Good effects
from the recent elections in the Chicka-
saw and ChoctawIndian nations in Indi-
an Territory. which resulted favorably to
the friends of allotment. are predicted
in the annual report made to the Indian
bureau by Agent Wisdom, in charge
Of Union agency, embracing the FIVE
civilized tribes.
The agent says many people of the
Indian territory. both citizens and
non-citizens. now advocate the cleo
ton of a delegate to congress, who
could prOfitably explain existing con-
ditions and secure remedial legisla-
ton.
The congress, as a whole, either does
not understand the Indian question or
is Indifferent to it, and hence much
of the legislation affecting this coun-
try is practically in the hands of a
few men who are not always wise in
their day and generation. The election
of a delegate would be much cheaper and
more economical for the Indians them
selves. and would not require them to
send from each tribe large delegations
to secure such legislation as they think
they need and to prevent such legisla-
ton a. they do not want. 1t is an
anomalous condition of affairs that
600 people should live in a republi-
can government without representation
in our national forum"

Washington. Nov. el.-Chief Justice
Charles d. Long. Of the Michigan SUI
preme court, who for two years has
waged a vigorous contest in the courts
against the pension bureau to test the
rights of veterans. has now made ap-
plication to the pension bureau for
restoration to his old pension rating.
and has filed evidence to support his
application. This move was an unex-
pected one even among those well &C.
quainted with the case. and Is taken
as an indication that Judge Long will
abandon his fight in the courts and will
submit to the rule of the office to file
evidence to secure his restoration. The
contest was precipitated about two
years ago by the action of Commissioner
Lochren in reducing Judge Long to $50
a month after ordering him for exam
ination before q board Of surgeons. He
refused to be examined, and was i'm
mediately reduced. though his counsel
claimed that this action was a viola
ton Of the law, which made examina-
ton a prerequisite to reduction. The
case was carried through all the courts
here, the decisions being favorable to
the contestant. and finally reached the
United States supreme court, where 1t
was dismissed recently, owing to
abatement through Judge Lochren's
retirement from Office. The disposition
OF the case has been referred by Com
missioner Murphy to Assistant Secre-
tary of the Interior Reynolds, who will
take early action.

Message and Carlise's Report.
Washington, Nov q. President
Cleveland is busy writing his annual
message. and Secretary Carlisle Is
equally busy with the preparation OF
his annual report, which should be laid
before congress en- the first day Of the
session. An unusual degree of inter-
est attaches to both of these forthcom-
ing documents on a number of ac-
counts, not least among which are the
probable recommendations of the pres
ident and the secretary of the treasury
in regard to revenue and monetary leg
islation. As to the latter. 1t is by no
means improbable that the recommen-
dations of last year will berenewed. As
TO revenue legislation, unless some men
who are usually very well informed
and are generally supposed to enjoy
the confidence OF some of the higher
officials Of the administration II not Of
President Cleveland himself. are at
fault, congress IL to be asked to take
immediate steps to provide more reve-
nue..
That this recommendation will coin
eide with the lines of the Dingley bill,
which passed the house Of representa-
tives last winter and was held up In
the senate. Is not to be expected. From
trustworthy sources IT has been
learned that both the president and
Secretary Carlisle are strongly inclined
at this time in favor of an increase of
the internal tax on beer from 81, the
existing rate. to 81 a barrel 1t is also

A convention OF business men hu

which should have solo CHARGE OF raia.
ing or lowering duues, uuu afg GOA.
idcni that 10 this were done tho tariff
agitation which now disturba business
would cease 10 be- O factor in industry
and trade.
While the scheme fos o tariff com.
mission is probably unconstitutional,
aud certainly impracticablo, one state.
mont OF It's advocates IS worthy of at
tention. This is their proposition,
that "the tariff levied on al goods
imported from sny foreign country
into tho United States shall In all
eases be GA amount fully equal to the
difference IN the cost OF producing
said goods Ia any foreign country aud
the cost OF producing such goods 10
the United States"
With this Democrats can heartily
agree II the duty on oil kinds Of
goods was TO be lowered TO the actual
difference between the cost Of pro.
ducing them here and abroad We should
have practically free trade. Thus the
cost of refining sugar IN the United
States is much less than in foreign
countries. Sugar, therefore, should
come IN free. So with o thousand
other articles in which the labor cost
Of production is smaller here than
abroad. All these would be admitted
without a duty, and in the few cases
where 1t might be found that foreign
goods could be made cheaper than
ours the difference would be small.
American skilled labor, aided by i'm
proved machinery, can convert our
great natural resources of raw ma
terials into finished products as cheap
or cheaper than that Of any other
country. ~ all means let us have
custom duties based on the difference
between the cost Of production here
and abroad. Then we shall have the
lowest tariff the country has ever
seen.

A MuddIed Senator.

United States Senator Lee Mantle,
OF Montana, recently said in Congress:
1.-THE protective principle ought never
to be invoked for the benefit Of any
special interest, class or section, or DO
permitted to foster any monopoly or
combination against the public inter-
est"
Senator Mantle must be an exceed
ing simple minded statesman If he
does not know that the very essence
of protection is favoritism to special
interests and classes. There is nothing
else to the whole high tariff swindle
but benefits to a small number ofman-
ufacturers at the expense of the seven
ty million American consumers. The
only real purpose for which the Nc
Kinley tariff increased the duties on
foreign products was to give greater
profits to the rings and trusts which
50 largely control the domestic mar
kets. If, as he pretends to believe,
protection does not foster monopoly
or combinations against the public in
terest, why do the trusts and COM
bines give immense sums of money
and use all their influence to elect Re.
publican Congressman and SenatorsP
Why did the Steel Trust fight the Will
son tariff reduction on steel if it was
not that its members are fostered by q
high tariff policy2 Where would the
Sugar Trusts enormous profits be if
refined sugar was allowed to come in
free of dutyP Nearly every trust and
monopoly in the country depends for
its power to rob the people through
high prices on the protection" of
high taxes.
Perhaps Senator Mantle thinks that
by talking against favoritism. class
legislation and monopolies he can fool
the people into restoring the Republic
can party to power. But it is by what
that party does, and not what some Of
its members may say for buncomb's
sake, that it is to be judged. What it
did in the past was to create and sus-
tain trusts by laws in the interest of
monopolists. If it gets an opportun-
ity it will pass more laws of the same
kind. It should not have another
chance.
