SOME TARIFF TRUTHS.

Under the Democrats an Infamous Bill
of Sale.
The human mind does not always
see around corners with readiness
Hence a question which is part of the
national life on all it's sides. and on
every side y vital part, does not get
fully seen at one glance, nor by some
minds ever. A shrewd writer begs to
have it explained how the democratic
party can be hostile to protection while
the only tariff it has enacted for nearly
40 years is denounced by most demo-
Gratis. and admitted by opponents, to be
packed with protective duties, and
wants to know if the democracy has not
in fact been whipped out of its HOSTILE
ty to protection, SO that the only issue
has come to be one of details and ex-
pediency, and not OF principle. APP
parently there are many observers and
writers whose minds are mixed up in
the same fashion-but not the minds of
wage-earners.
The democratic party is not an indi-
,idual, with one mind to decide on
every point. It is body composed of
millions, whose shades of opinion ard
prejudice and purpose are also millions.
But the overwhelming purpose re-
corded in the platform Of the last M
tional convention was to get rid of pro
tective duties as far and as fast as pos
sible, and this on the highest ground
of principle-namely, pretended consti-
tutional obligation and theory OF
justice as between classes and sections
Nobody can honestly deny that this

no evidence that the purpose OF the
great majority has changed in the least,
though a minority large enough to beat
the party in every northern state re-
fuses to break down its industries.
The tariff thus framed Is In some
features nothing but an infamous bill
of sale to various interests without re-
gard to these or other industries, and
this shameful favoritism was proof not
of protective intentions, but of dis
honesty. In other features the tariff
is distinctly and effectively protective,
because votes from certain manufac-
turing states could not otherwise be
secured. In many others 1t is inten.
tionaIly made to represent a weakened
levee, some feet too low to keep out q
food, and therefore sure to be swept
away when the flood comes. In many
other details it is markedly designed to
invite and encourage foreign importa-
tions and to deprive home industies Of
protection. The two latter classes o.
changes express the intention badly
avowed by the party in its platform.
The other duties express its dishonesty,
or its fright at the crushing defeats adj
ministered Ivy the people. But the fact
remains unaltered, that the democratic
party intends to go as far as it can and
dare in the overthrow Of protective
duties, which the republican party in
tends to perfect and maintain.-N. Y.

cLEvELANp.s BELIEF.
The Presidents Position In the Present
Monetary Mix-Up.

Monetary Mix-Up.
It Is given out on the authority Of q
cabinet officer that President Cleveland
thinks the democratic party can win
this year by declaring unequivocally
for sound money and nominating q
candidate to match. He believes, in
other words. that the currency question
is going to be the controlling one in
the campaign, and that the democrats
have only to put themselves on the
right side of it in order to sweep the
country. The proposition is well i'm
agined, but there is not so much to
be said Of it's practicability. There are
certain obstacles in the case which
cannot be removed by simply wishing
that they were out of the way. Mr..
Cleveland himself has helped to create
them. and he ought to know that they
represent condition and not theory.
His devotion to sound money has made
him many enemies for whom he ought
to be loved, which is to say that he
has generated a kind of antagonism in
his party that forbids the idea Of such
a surrender as his plan of success con-
templates. He has acted courageously,
but in SO doing he has consolidated
and intensified the free silver sentiment
that he expected to suppress. 1t is
a potent and implacable force, and the
suggestion that it ought to discredit
and humiliate itself by q betrayal Of
the cause for which it stands will only
serve to render it more aggressive and
vindictive, instead Of tending to make
it amiable.
Mr.. Cleveland knows, of course, that
over two-thirds of the democrats in
the present congress have voted for
free silver, Notwithstanding all that
he has said and done in the opposite
direction. These men do not speak for
themselves merely, but for large con-
stttuencies that are very much in earn
est about the matter. He has surely
not failed to observe that in every DEM
ocratic state his party is divided upon
this question in an uncompromising
and acrimonious way. The two fac
tons are more bitter toward each other
than they are towards the republican

The new man" made hjE initial bow

sea with all the pomp and ceremony
worthy of such truly great event.
"Gladys" az he is known among his
friends, was taken to lear year party
and behaved just "tco lovely for any
thing" or 70 the women said, at any
rate.
This Is true story.
His escort called at $50 and was
.cpt waiting half hour in true fem
iiine fashion by Gladys, who was put
ting the finishing touches to his toilet.
Finally, just as his escort began to fres
end fume under the delay, the tardy
young man tripped lightly down the
stairs into the drawihg-room, exclaim.
ing: "Oh, Miss Sorosis! am afraid
you will think I am an awful man TO

1t was dreadfully stupid Of me, am

little man coyly remarked. "Oh, you

Jfow thoughtful you were to send me

1t shameful waste to squander 70
much money on flowers for us men,
and thinks it would be much more
sensible to put the sum in the Home
stead Aid association, where it would
accumulate interest. Papa, you know,
spent his early days on a farm and
wasn't reared to the little niceties OF
social life. But then he is such dear
kind old soul, and keeps me so well
supplied with pin money that can't
bear the thought of openly disagreeing
with him. Poor, dear papai really
don't know what would do without
him-I don't think the woman lives
that would marry and leave my papa.

ARCHBISHOP KENRIcK DEAD.
ST.. LOUIS, March 6.-Peter Richard
Kenrick, who for nearly half century
prior to three years ago was Catholic
archbishop of this diocese, died at 1880
o'clock yesterday in the ssth year Of
his age. He had been in very feeble
health for several years.
Peter Richard Kenrick was born In Dublin

atory school In his native city he entered St.
Patricks Royal college at Maynooth, March Q,

passed from the school room into active service

time coadjutor bishop of Philadelphia. and In
1888 invited him to come to America, which he
did. arriving In Philadelphia in October Of that
same year. He was appointed president Of the
diocesan seminary and later to the position Of
vicar general OF the diocese.
He remained in Philadelphia nine years In
1871 Bishop Rosati, Of st. Louis, applied for q
coadjutor, and having met the young priest In
Rome. he recommended to the pope the ap-
pointment Of Father Kenrick. The holy see
granted the request About year later. in
December, 1872, he succeeded to the episcopacy
ct the death of Bishopi Rosat.
In the vatican he was q strong opponent OF

and had 1t not been for this opposition, 1t is
said that the archbishop would have been
made cardinal.

abolishing revenue and letting the gov.
eminent live by borrowing. Fortunately
the principles of the democracy are i'm
mortal, however vulnerable the national
credit."-N. Y. Sun (Dem.).
1t is gratifying to see that there is
one democratic paper which has the
intelligence and courage to lift its voice
against the suicidal policy of that party
in congress and the white house,
policy which is injurious to the country
and disastrous to the party which i'd
heres to it.
That the government needs more
revenue is apparent from every treas
ury statement. The house passed a
bill which would have furnished rev.
enue enough to put the government on
it's legs. But in the senate populists,
free silver democrats and honest money
democrats united to defeat it. For
once the two wings Of the democracy
were able to flop together. The two
factions struck hands with one another
and with the pops for the purpose of de-
feating o measure which would have
made the tariff little more protective
than it is.
They prefer deficiency and the pres
cnt law to no deficiency and a slight ad-
vance in duties and protection. They
would rather continue to borrow than
lose the smallest fraction of the ad-
vance made in the direction of free
trade. They would rather issue bonds
to all eternity, and, strange to say,
the Sun is the only paper which cen.
sures its party leaders for their vicious
policy. 1t tells the truth, but neither
senators nor president will heed it,

The Mikado's American Tour.

We learn on excellent authority that
the mikado contemplates a tour through
the United States and Europe at some
future time. If he is able to carry out
this plan he will be the first japanese
emperor who has ever been allowed to
leave his dominions. 1t seems, how
ever, that there are great difficulties in
the way, the old fanatical japanese
party objecting strongly to so remark
able an innovation. The Turkish
fanatics did the same thing when Abdul
Aziz announced his intention of paying
u visit to Paris and London. They
were unable to prevent it, and that luck
less sovereign was the first Turkish
sovereign who ever crossed the frontiers
Of his empire, except as conqueror.
The mikado is highly educated man,
who speaks several European languages
and his visit, should it ever take pl ace,
will be an event of great interest.-
