Cycling Conference.

NEW YORK, Nov. pa conference be-
tween President Potter, of the L. A. w, and
President Orr, of the Canadian Wheelmen' s
association relative to the Pacific coast cy-
cling difficulties, was held today at the Wal
dorf-Astoria. Mr.. Orr explained the situa-
ton to Mr.. Potter, and told the league presi-
dent that while the c. W. A. did not desire
to strain its pleasant relations with the L..
A. W., in justice to its British Columbian
division it could not debar the L. A W. Of
the Pacific coast from competition in British
Columbian race meets. The conference was a
friendly one and Mr.. Potter took the matter
into consideration.

based upon his total disability; no
more is Judge Long, Of Michigan,
receiving a salary of $1,000 year, en-
titled to similar pension. But when
the friends of the system" throw open
the doors; when they extend so cordial
an invitation to greed and perjury as
they did in the arrears Of pension act;
when they distort the humane purpose
of the dependent pension act of 1890 to
admit men of means as dependents
because they cannot perform the man
ual labor from which their competency
exempts them, it is small wonder If
self respect, seldierly honor and manly
self-dependence broke under the temp
tation and so loaded the rolls as to
call for their purging 'by their
friends" g.

REVISION BY IT'S FRIENDS.

After Mr.. Cleveland sent to congress
his Indictment Of the corrupting use Of
the taxing power Of the government
and precipitated renewal Of the per-
petual struggle Of the mass against the
classes for restoration Of rights wrest-
ed from them, the Republican party
was unanimous in asserting that the
tariff should be revised, but by it's
friends" that it would never do to per-
nit it to be revised by it's enemies"
There was a certain plausibility in this
that retained for that party sufficient
votes of Independent Republicans in
1888, men who were convinced that the
power to tax should never be used for
any other purpose than to provide reve-
nue-among whom we may name Sen
ator Knute Nelson-to give to that Or
ganization the opportunity to show
what the friends Of a protective tariff
would do in the way of revision. The
claim itself was an admission that the
rates were eXtortionate and needed re-
vising. The party, Immediately on it's
return, began the revision and made
it strictly after the manner of friends
The outcome was the Mckinley act
and the result was the committal of
the next revision to it's enemies, who
proved altogether too friendly.
There is need, has been for years, of
a revision of the pension laws and a
clearance of the roll of the frauds that
have gained access to it while friends"
made it up. So fragrant has become
the abuse that even Republican papers
of unwavcring loyalty are compelled to
demand a purging of the roll and a
restriction Of pensions to the needy.
But again we have the familiar old
cry that this must be done by the
friends of pensioning and pensioners.
And, of course, the Republican party
is the friend. The New York Tribune
effect. Justly and irrevocably decreed
that the pension roll can be safely
and equitably overhauled by the friends
of the system, but never by it's foes. -
Then it and it's echoes proceed to give,
as reasons for the overhauling, precise
ly the same reasons that have been
urged by those whom they assume to
be the foes of the system. They pro-
pose identically the same means. They
admit that the roll is blemished with
names placed there through perjury
and fraud. They admit that no man
has any moral right to be pensioner
who is capable of self-support. They
point to the numerous instances Of
wealthy men who have no shame to
take money that should go to giving
to the really needy a larger pension
in place of the niggardly and INSULT
cient sums now paid. They propose
that that shall be done which they
whom they characterize as enemies"
have asked to have done. 1t will strike
the man of candid mind that they
should use the term enemy" and
friend" with less fippancy.
We are not disposed, however, to
quarrel with these friends of the sys-
TEN" who agree with US both as 10 the
shameful manner in which the gener
osity of the nation has been abused by
''the friends of the system" and that
no man should have the disloyalty
or the opportunity to receive a
pension who is capable of self-sup-
port. If Gen. Black can earn a iveli
hood by practicing Law he is moi. en-
titled in equity to receive q. pension

SECTION u AGAIN.
Questions Involved in 1t to Come
Before the Courts.

Before the Courts.
WASHINGTON, Nov. PIT is not imDrob-
able that the questions involved in disCrim-
mating section q, of the new tariff act will
be brought to the courts for final determine
ton. Information has reached the treasury
department that, during the tendency Of the
questions before the attorney general, the
collectors at number of ports assessed the
10 per cent discriminating duty on transit
goods from Canada under consular seal. as
we'll as upon goods produced in Canada. One
of these invoices. it is understood. was for
a considerable quantity of china. which
rived at Sault Ste. Marie. Mich, from Ores
den, under consular seal. An appeal in this
case. it is said already has been taken TO
the board of general appraisers at New York.
This board, under the law, is not bound by
the opinions of the attorney general, or those
of the secretary Of the treasury, the courts
alone having authority to review its findings.
In case of a decision by the board assessing
the discriminating duty, it is almost certain
that the importers will take an appeal but
should they fail to do so, 1t is not unlikely
that the government would take such action.
The question, therefore. of whether the case
will go to the courts depends upon the de-
cision of the board of general appraisers.

TO KEEP ON THE SAFE SIDE.
Such Was the Intention az Attor-
ney MarIlham's Advice to Council.

\
To the Editor Of the Globe.
My attention has been called to an editorial
note in this mornings G 10 b @, in which
it is said 'if Corporation Attorney Markham
did imagine that there were certain diff
culties in the way of the suit OF the city
against the bOndsmen of the Blckel bank"
meaning the Minnesota Savings bank, "Judge
Otis found none" etc, and IL is said the
to compromise, and this decision (by the
court shows how well they did. The c0rpOr-
alton attorney should never have intimated
to the council any doubt as to the result Of the
action. That he did reflects on his legal
ability"
I am wholly unable to understand upon
what you base the assumption that ! have
lntmated to the council any doubt as to the
result of this suit. The fact is quite the
reverse. I appeared before the committee
on ways and means Of each branch Of the
common council and stated explicitly and un-
qualifedly that in my judgment the sureties
had no defense to the suit upon this bond.
It was suggested by some Of the members
Of the committee, that some, II not all, OF
the sureties upon the bond were ins0lvent
and that it might be better to accept the
amount offered by them in cash than 10 OBJ
tain Judgment for the full amount. In answer
to this l suggested that 1t was quite prob
able that the city treasurer and the sUretes
upon his bond might be held liable for hav-
ing deposited in the bank amount in ex-
cess of the assessed value Of its capital stock,
even though that was no defense to the
pending suit, and that therefore II would be
unWiSe and unsafe In any event 10 COM
promise with and discharge the sureties upon
the bond given by the bank, for the reason
that the effect of such action would be 70
discharge the city treasurer and his sureties
from any liability to the city. l took the
same position before the common council
when the matter came UP for consideration,
and at no time or at any place have l in
timated that there existed the slightest doubt
but that the city would recover Judgment
against these sureties for the full amount
of its claim.
I trust you will do me the justice to with
draw the reflection contained in your editorial.
Very truly yours,
CnrnnratiOn Attorney.
