From the Philadelphia Record.
Ex-Governor Mckinley is now free to
push his claim as the logical choice of
his party as its candidate for the presi-
dency. There is no denying he is the
logical nominee. To desert him would
be tantamount to the desertion of the
principle Of which the Mckinley law
was the cleareSt assertion ever ventured
upon. 1t covered protection for the
sake Of protection by the establiSt-
ment of prohibijive duties. This was
done under the constitutional cloak of
taxation for revenue. But in the provi-
sion for the payment of bounties out of
the federal treasury to favored indus
tries all pretense of constitutional war
rant was abandoned.
The right of the government to take
the property of one citizen and pay it
over to another citizen as gratuity
under cover OF the taxing power, was
for the first time asserted In its nakpi
atrocity. This is the essence OF tn
doctrine of proection; and McKinlr, is
entitled to whatever pre- re'elenrr tn
championship Of such a principle ma
carry with it. As long as he was gn'
ernor Of Ohio his legs we're tiod. n ~

IN HOUSE AND Senate
Pension Appropriation Bill
Calls for $141, 1,325,82O.
Two Changes Made by 1t in Exist
ing Laws-Senator Morgan As
sails Senator Sherman in a Long
speeoh-Mr. Kyle's Resolution
FavorinR tho Cuban Insurgents.

Washington, Jan. 14.-In the house
the pension appropriation bill for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1so7-the
first of the general appropriation bills
reported-was taken up in the COM
mittee of the whole. 1t appropri-
ates sl4l, 325, $50, which is some $50, 900
less than the amount carried by tho
last bill and about the same amount
below the estimates w. A. Stone,
two changes made by 1t in existing
laws, which were to make a pension
granted date from the time of the first
application without regard to inter
vening reflections, and limiting to $500
the income which dependent widows
may receive and yet be eligible to
pension. Mr.. Graft, rep, Ill.,, gave no.
tice of an amendment making pension
vested right, and attacked the pres
ent policy. Mr.. Bartlett, dem, N. Y,
opposed any further extension of tho
pension system. Without disposing o.
the bill the committee rose and the
house adjourned.
In tho Senate.
Senator Morgan, dem, Ala, de-
Evered a two hours speech In the sem
ate on the house bond bill and the free
silver substitute for 1t reported from
the finance committee. Mr.. Morgan
assailed bitterly the course of Mr. Sher-
man, rep, O., both as senator and as
secretary OF the treasury in hostility to
silver rs currency on parity with
gold. When he resumed his seat, the
floor was taken by Mr.. Butler, pop, N.
c., who will speak on the bill this
afternoon. A concurrent resolution
empowering and directing the presi-
dent OF the United States to receive a
deputation from the Cuban revolution
lists and to extend be'ligerent rights to
them, was introduced by Mr.. Kyle,
pop, 8. d., and referred to the COM
mittee on foreign relations. A rather
amusing colloquy between Mr.. Hill,
dem, N. Y, and the two North Carolina
senators, MIR. Pritchard, rep, and Mr..
Butler, pop, took place spropos of q
sarcastic remark of Mr.. Hill few
days ago to the effect that although
the two North Carolina senator's were
elected at the same time and by the
same combination, their statements
were inconsistent, one of them claim
ing that the state was in favor of high
protective duties, while the other
asserted that it was in favor OF tariff
reform. Mr. Hill declared that 1t
would be utterly impossible in the next
presidential election for either Of the
two great parties to crafty the fiokle
constituency of North Carolina.

The Yellowstone Park is one of the mosl
wonderfully attractive regions Of the world
It's beauties of scenery, the wild grandeur
of its mountains and canons, compel the
admiration of every visitor, while its phe-
-nonenal geysers and curious miner logical
formations make it a rich field for the in
vestigation of scientist. Universal in
terest attaches to it, and in order that the
natural desire to visit may be accomplished
in the most satisfactory manner the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company has arranged
for four covering period ofsixteen days
leaving New York and Philadelphia,
Thursday. August 81.
As the tour will be run under the person
ally conducted todrist system inaugurate
by the above named company. it is hardly
necessary to give the assurance that it will
be arranged in the most complete manner.
1t might be well to state, however, that
no other means of seeing the park thor
oughly is comparable to that afforded by a
well ordered personally-conducted tour.
A special train, consisting of dining,
Pullman vestibule drawing-room sleeping
compartment. and observation cars, which
will be the best that can be secured, will
be provided. in which passengers will live
en- route. and whenever the journey is
broken the choicest rooms in the leading
hotels will be reserved for the use of the
tourists, for which regular rates are paid
SO that the guests, although members ofa
party, enjoy all the privileges of indiYid-
uals who may have made tn cir own selec-
ions.
The party will be conducted throughout
by tourist agent especially selected for
his ability and experience, with chaperon
to look after the comfort of lady passengers
The rate covering every necessary ex.

How tobe Cool Though Hot.

The above is the euphonious hyperbole
given the writer as timely subject for
discussion, interesting and profitable. Af
ter cursory glance at the topic and its
author, we looked around for the foolkiller,
but he was not there as usual, its way the
fool-killer has of never being on hand when
wanted. He is the one man in the country
that has more business that he can attend
to. But the subject is after all worth con-
sidering and the following are a few de-
ductions drawn from personal observation
of the methods used by some of the natives
Start out in the morning with the posi-
tive assertion This is going to be the hot
test day yet" The locusts will take it up
and SO it goes. Adopt the garden-of- Eden
style of costume. or as near it as our ad-
Yanced civilization and fashion books will
allow. Rush around like cyclone from
room to room, trying every rocker in the
house, rock hard and fast, using the fan
prodigiously, don't stopsan instant and if
the fan gives out snatch up newspaper or
old hat or anything. only keep on tanning.
Consult the thermometer every five min

of ice water, if you have nothing cooler.
A wise and judicious use Of expletives will.
be found advantageous such for instance
