Mr.. Sherman's prospective successor
in the senate does not appear over
burdened with modesty. He ascribes
Bushnell's intention to appoint him to
the fact that the sentiment in Ohio
toward him (lianna) was such that
Bushnell thought he had better appoint
him. This seems a rather ungracious
return for the favor promised, and dis.
tinctly implies that the governor was
forced to make the appointment. Then
Mr.. Hanna sent his regrets to Detroit
where he had been invited TO participate
in the celebration of Washington's
birthday, assigning as one of the rea
sons for not coming that Mckinley was
sick. This seems to imply that Hanna
has to attend to presidential business
when Mckinley is i'll. Have we already
deputy president?-Louisville Cou

Mark Hanna. senator,

Gov. Bushnell definitely announces
his purpose to appoint Mark Hanna as
senator of the United States to suc-
ceed John Sherman. 1t is an appoint
ment utterly and conspicuously unfit to
be made. 1t is the outcome of COM
plicated political dicker, which unhap-
PLY involves the president-elect him
self, as our Canton dispatches show.
Mark Hanna has no pretensions what
ever to craftsmanship. He has neither
learning nor experience, neither an ac-
quaintance with. public affairs nor skill
in their conduct. His solitary claim
upon attention is that he raised and dis
bursed gigantic campaign fund for
the debauchment of American politics.
Without that claim upon attention his
appointment to the senate would be lu-
dicrous. With it that appointment is q
blistering scandal.-N. Y. World.

THE FIGHT is ON.
Mr.. Bryan Holds That the Money
Question Is Still an Issue.

4ueht1On Is stllI On Issue.
"Free Coinage" was the subject OF a
lecture delivered by William Jennings
Bryan at Carnegie hall under the aus
pices of the New York Bimetallic asso-
citation. In his speech Mr.. Bryan said:
at will not be necessary for me to speak
longer than to thank you for the encourage
ment Of your presence, and to express my
appreciation of the work which has been
done by the advocates of bimetallism in
the eastern states. l have never lost an
opportunity to assure those who labore1
for free coinage here that we. who In the
west and south have more of local victories
to rejoice over, recognize the obstacles
which were in your way. and recognize the
valor with which you fought. do not
know any democrat. free silver republican
or populist who deserves more credit than
those who made the fight in New York city.
] want to say that your fight here has given
you warm place in the hearts Of the west
and south
Now a word of encouragement. want
to say to those who have fought that the
fight is not done. i want TO encourage you
by saying that have not found one per-
son who was with US who is sorry that he
was with us, and of those who fought
grets the part he took on election day and
during the campaign.
Il am proud of the work done by the
allied forces during the last campaign.
No matter what may be the permanent
settlement of the money question, the
American people are better for the cam
paign through which they have passed.
The government will be better; the laws
will be better. The next four years are 60
ing to be the hardest for the men who are
in politics for pecuniary benefits of any
years in recent history.
II want to say that do not believe that
this money question is yet settled. We are
no better now than we were before election
| have not reformed. i believe In those
principles as much now as then, and It Is
going to be no easier for monometallists
and bimetallists to associate than before.
Any man who comes 10 act with us must
be one of us and his sins will be forgiven,
but he cannot bring his sins with him."

DAY OF RECKONING COMING.
When America VIII Cease Making
MiIlIOnalres by Law,

A special correspondent of the Lon
don Telegraph. writing from New York
regarding the Bradley Martin ball Ee-
fore that much-advertised event came
off, has the following TO say regarding
the opposition to the function that man
ifested itself and the causes leading up
tc that opposition:
"There is much in the social condition
of this great republic to cause real
anxiety. The gaps are too broad. 1t
is said on good authority that the total
number of rich families, despite the
great difference of population, is only
little larger than in Britain, and their
aggregate wealth is less, and yet the
disparites of condition excite here far
deeper feeling. But there is reason for
this. In the United Kingdom the law
does not interfere to enrich the towns
at the expense of the country, TO impov'
erish the farm in order to aggrandize
the factory, to penalize west and south
with the view of fayoring the north aud
east, to make wealthy the manufac-
turer at the cost of the consumer, where
as the law docs step in to lay the burden
of taxation on the shoulders best able
to bear it. Here everything the poor
man buys is made deaIer in order that
some rich man may be made richer,
In every way the rich man is taxed in
England, living or dying; in every way
he escapes in the United States. Trusts
and tariffs fleece the people OF the
rural districts and the poor everywhere
for the benefit of the captalists-and,
so far as tariffs are concerned, the next
government aud congress actually pro-
pose to make matters still worse. Tho
true inwardness of the outcry is THAI
it is a symptom OF how deep there is
sinking into the conscience of the Amer
lean people the wrong that has been and
is being perpetrated. A loud cry will
rise to Heaven by and by that the manu-
facture of millionaires by acts OF con-
eress and defiance Of law must cease"

EYE-SHUTTING HABITS.
MckinIey's DociIity in the F1nds OF
Boss Hanna.

We again ask the nation to observe
the admiration felt by Mr.. Hanna for
one Of Mr.. McKinley's special gifts. 1t
did seem difficult before to imagine
nny condition possible to the president
elect in which the Warwick who placed
him at the head of this ma tion would not
contend that he showed his superiority
to the ordinary run of mankind. Now
he has surely reached the limit.
During the progress of the campaign
for the presidency Mr.. Hanna took fire.
quent occasion to explain why it was he
had been led to espouse the Mckinley
cause. He had accidentally met the OBJ
ject Of his affections in the course of an
nnimportant political movement In
Ohio and afterwards was thrown with
him in the transaction of minor busi-
ness affairs. Mr.. Hanna was impressed
by the STERLING quality" Of Mr.. McKin-
ley's character, his "inflexible honesty
Of purpose" and his alertness of intel
lect. He determined that such man
ought logically to be president.
Having made him president, Mr.. Han
ma now presents Mr.. Mckinley invested
with new and hitherto unmentioned
charms to the gaze of an admiring peo-
pie. According to this most excellent
and ingenious hornblower, the presi-
lent-elect, even in his capacity for
sleeping. is peerless character. 81
never saw man like him." rhapsodizcs
Mr.. Hanna. 'Ile can sleep at any
time"
At first glance, IL would seem that the
country should receive this testimonial
of the president-ccct's capacity for
slumber with genuine thankfulness. A
man who can sleep well is safe man
ms rule; he has an easy conscience and
he is not given TO imperiing calm
serenity Of judgment by indulging in
vain worrying. But a too ready facility
for sleep on the part Of president-es-
pecially when elected to that high Of
flee through the friendlness of such in
terests as were represented by Mr.. Han
Da-may prove regrettable posses

the part of Mr.. Mckinley in his dealings
with the Hanna contingent is 10 be

WEAK ON THE REVENUE.
Tho Nations Income Reduced by o
High Tariff.

The New York Press has undertaken
the formidable task Of proving that ex-
treme protection will bring about in-
creased revenues. Sensible republicans
usually abandon such nonsense immedi-
ntely after the campaign. But the Press
takes Its tariff doctrine seriously, and
insists that we can have tariff high
enough to keep out foreign goods and at
the same time supply revenue to meet
the extravagant demands Of more
than billion-dollar congress. II says:
"One Of the theories held by extreme
believers in low tariff is that, II 1t
does nothing else, low tariff should in
crease revenues in those classifications
where duties are cut down, BY stimulat-
ing larger imports, and, consequently,
giving the government greater volume
OF articles from which to exact duties.
We have found that occasionally some
Of those who believe in protection be-
cause 1t permits Americans to do BUSH
ness are weak on the revenue part OF q
protective tariff" H.e
One of the republicans whois "weak
on therevenuc part" of protective tariff
is John l.. Henderson, formerly United
States senator from Missouri, and ro,s
garded as fully up to the level OF Edsl
munds, Of Vermont, In craftsmanship
In au interview last week Ar. Hender-
son said:
II am afraid that II the tariff Is made
higher the import duties will fall of and
decrease the revenues Of the government
considerably. They will fall or for this
reason, viz: Our manufacturers can now
manufacture twice as much as they can
consume, and the surplus they expect to
export. They can successfully compete
with the imported goods. and with high
tariff they can undersell AS a result we
will not have such large importations. and
we will have to raise our revenue In another
manner"
Another who is weak on the revenue
part" is President-elect Mckinley.
When he made his tariff bill he called it
an "act to reduce the public revenues"
and he made speech showing how the
| increase of tariff rates would reduce
the revenue. 1t worked exactly as was
predicted. The revenues were reduced
until there was a deficit under the Nc
Kinley law OF $69,0OO,O0o.
If the Press could shut out imports
and collect duty on them at the same
time it would have really strong rev.
cnue system. But as long as shutting
out goods deprives us of tariff duties
that might otherwise be collected the
protective tariff system will be weak
in its revenue part."-Utica Observer.
