THE TARIFF IN THE SENATE.
Speedy Passage OF the Dingley bill
Is the Popular Demand.

The senate is a body which is pecul-
iarly responsive, and always has been,
to the demands of the business inter
ests of the country. Elected for term
of six years, the members have more
time to take from personal politics and
give to craftsmanship than have their
colleagues of the house of representa-
tiyes. Then, too, the senator's are OF
more conservative type and are likely
to be men whose experience In the
broad fields OF business has been such
as to make them think, in Legislative
matters, along commercial lines and to
keep closely in touch with private men
of affairs 1t is because OF this pecul-
iarity that lingo legislation, however
clear its passage may have been in the
house, usually splits upon the sena-
torial rock of business caution and pru-
dence.
While the public has sometimes re-
sented the fact that the business mi
nority has more influence with the SEN
ate than the popular majority, there is
now common hope that the pressure

usual effect. For once, all classes are
a unit upon a single legislative prop
osition. They want economic relief
with the least possible delay. Trade Is
waiting, production is waiting, labor is
waiting, everything and everybody In
the country is waiting TO have the

perity. The people are in no mood for
long debates and the interminable hair
splitting of past sessions. They are
prepared TO resent waste of time in
the making of personal records. The

THEIR CONDUCT PRAISED by CAPTAIN PAXTON
OF THE REGULAR ARMY.


OF THE REGULAR ARMY.
Harrisburg, Nov. 7.-Captain Alexis r. Paxton,
18th Infantry. L. S. A.. has forwarded 10 the Sec
rotary OF War report Of the operations Of the
Third Brigade and Philadelphia City Troop in the
Haxleton region following the killing of strikers
at Latmer by Sheriff Martin and his deputies
The captain attached to the headquarters of the
National Guard Of Pennsylvania. and spen. three
weeks at Hazeton with General Goblin by drec-
ton of Governor Hastings.
The report says that the mobilization and
centratton Of the troops exceeded in speed accu-
racy ard completeness that Of the militia Of any
other State in the Union The camps Of all the
organizations were notable for their thorough pO-
lice, the accurate alignment OF the tents and for
compliance generally with the Army regulations
for castrametation Captain Paxton reports that
the duties of the brigade during this service were
performed In strictly military manner In all re-
epects. The conduct of the troops at all times
excellent. The strikers soon realized that there
was no personal luminosity against them. and that
the real purpose Of the troops simply TO main
tain law and orde" Such troops the captain says
they could fail respect. The heavy loss Of
life and large list Of seriously wounded AT Latimcr
cannot fail to impress thoughtful citizens with the
Importance Of providing some better methods Of
