WHERE THE SENATE rs RIGHT.

Oddly enough, it is the national
Senate which is right and the House
which is wrong in this matter of TAX
ing advantage of great opportunity
in the Pacific.
The action of the House in refusing
tosconcur with the other body in an
amendment to the Sundry Civil bill
appropriating $4,000 for the i'm
provement of Pearl Harbor, in the
Hawaiian Islands, is surprising err
ror of judgment. 1t would naturally
be assumed that the House would
manifest more interest in this enter
prise than the Senate-for one of the
first steps of the new Republican ad
ministration was to strengthen our
naval force at Honolulu, and the
threatened complications with Japan
may at any time give Pearl Harbor
extraordinary Importance.
This harbor, which is close to Hon
olulu and is landlocked basin of
great extent, easily defensible, was
ceded by Hawaii to the United States
In 1887 as coaling station and rend-
ezvous for our Pacific Squadron. All
that is necessary to do is to deepen
the entrance to the harbor to give us
the beginning of veritable Gibral-
tar in the Western Sea.
The Senate should by all means ad-
here to the appropriation, whicn
ought to have the support Of every
Republican member of the House of
Representatives.-Erc Exchange.

There seems to be no Hkelyhood
that Mate Thomas M. Bran will es-
cape from paying the highest pen
atty of the law for the crime of which
he has been convicted. The discov-
cries and experiments mape since be
was.pronounced guilty have all been
of a character to remove lingering
doubts that he was the perpetrator of
the bloody crime. When the barken-
tine Herbert Fuller returned to port,
it will be remembered that careful
experiments were made to prove or
disprove the claim that man stand
ing at the wheel could see into the
after ca bin and witness crime there
The experiments showed conclusively
that could be easily done thus cor
roborating the important testimony
of Seaman Brown.

That the Grecian king, knowing as
he ought to have known his almost
utter lack of preparations, should
have permitted war is wonder. The
Powers of Europe, not over friendly
to Greece, will now be invoked to
cause suspension of hostilities and
effect a settlement on some basis.
Greece is too poor to pay great sum
in indemnities, and altogether too
small to part with territory. The out
look for the little kingdom is very
poor indeed. An indirect harm re-
sulting will be the spirit of pride and
arrogance which will be invoked in
the minds of the cruel Turks who will
be all the more ready to continue
their atrocities throughout their own
realms. If they could have been con-
quered and humbled in this war it
would have been a blessing, other
wise it is liable to be curse to hu-
manity.

TIE GREEK WAR ENDED.

The Greek war seems to be about at
an end, and it closes ANONYMOUSLY
for the Greeks. While the sympa-
thies of the Christian world were
largely with the Greeks, there is a
disappointment if not almost a dis
gust at the way the contest has been
Waged on that side. The immediate
cause of the war, though the Turks
have doubtless. long ill-treated and
provoked the enemy was the fighting
in Crete of the Turks and the inva-
sion of Turkish territory by certain
Greek bands, which probably could
have been controlled by the national
authorities. The Turks have far out
numbered their adversaries in troops,
but have had the disadvantage of
positions and the danger of aggres-
sive operations, while the Greeks
ought to have had defenses that
could have overcome numbers and
superior tactics on the part of the
Turks. The Turks seem to have been
well led, to have fought well and to
have been vastly superior in cavalry
and artillery service.

There is now sitting in the execu
tive chair. at Washington a man who
is said to be the only real democratic
president this country has had in
many years. The head officer of over
seventy million persons, he walks
about the streets of the capital un-
heralded and unattended, speaking
familiarly with all his acquaintances,
nodding to those strangers who hap
pen to recognize and salute him, and
grasping the hands of his old friends,
whether they be dressed in silks or
gunnysacks. He treats all alike, and
his simple tastes have become so well
known there has grown up in the
hearts of the people of Washington
an admiration for their president the
like of which has not been known for
years.

ANT1-PATERNAL PINGREE.

Gov. Pingree of Michigan may be
demagogue, but he certainly has
the courage of his convictions. The
Michigan legislature has recently
passed two bills, similar to those in
troduced in several other states pro-
viding for the establishment of cur
few and prohibiting the use of cigar
cites by boys, both of which Gov.
Pingree has vetoed. The paternal
theory which required the state to
take up duties neglected by parents
has many supporters among the reli-
gious and moral elements Of the COM
munity, whose influence is often used
with more zeal than discretion, and
politician on the lookout for votes,
such as Gov. Pingree is accused of be-
ing, might we'll consider it worth
while to buy popularity among the
good at SO cheap price. The COVER
nor, however, seems to have been
governed solely by the plain com
mon sense in which no one accuses
him of being deficient.
happier, no doubt, if put to bed each
night at an early hour, and tobacco in
any form is not good for boys, but the
enforcement of parental discipline
should not be left to the police. The
responsibility Of parents for the future
of the beings whom they have
brought into the world without their
having a voice in the matter is
strongly insisted on by advanced re-
formers. How is it possible for that
responsibility to be keenly felt when
the simple duties of correcting habits
injurious to health are delegated to
the state. Instead of loading an s.
year old cigarette smoker into the
patrol wagon and sending him to the
station Gov. Pingree wisely prefers
that he should submit to a short in
terview with his father and leather
strap in the Reporter.

Asst. Sec. Howell of the treasury
department said that there would be
no doubt that the tariff bill as report
ed to the senate would yield suffici-
ent revenue for the needs of the gov
ernment.
s'While the total revenue which it
is estimated certain schedules will
yield" he said, ''is less than the
amount estimated under the same
schedules in the house bill, we will
have as an offset $4,000, 900 from
the duty on tea and s15, 900, 900 from
the increased tax on beer.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1897-05-17
THE MODIFIED TARIFF BILL.

The changes which the finance
committee has made in the Dingley
bill are not quite as numerous or as
radical as the Democrats predicted
or as the Republicans at one time ex-
pected. Still, they make some i'm
portant alterations in the measure
from the form it had when it passed
retroactive clause is stricken out.
The reciprocity provision placed in
the bill by the House is .displa ced by
a more general section which will ac-
complish somewhat similar purpose
in simpler way. The tax on beer is
increased from the rate placed upon
it by the House. nwools of the first
and second classes the duty is cut be-
low the House figures, while on those
of the third class the duty is ad
vanced. Most of the duties on metals
are reduced below the House rates.
In general it may be said that the
bill reported to the Senate will be
more moderate measure than it was
when it passed the House. While the
changes are not radical, the majority
of them are reductions. AS reve
nue. me asure the finance committees
modified bill is an improvement over
the House measure. Nor is the re-
quir ement of greater protection than
the Wilson law affords lost sight of.
Many duties are left as the House
fixed them. Undoubtedly the bill in
it's modified form will be more accept
able to the Senate than it would have
been in the shape in which it passed
the House. The veterans who COM
pose the Republican end of the fl
nance committee have had a good
deal of experience in tariff legisla-
ton. They understand what the
country needs in this line, and what
is Of prime Importance at the present
time, they know the Senate's temper
and what sort of measure it will ac-
cept.
1t is safe to predict that there will
be no long conflict between the two
branches on this bill. The changes
made by the finance committee are
not extreme. Unlike those made by
the Senate in the Wilson bill, they
are not calculated to arouse the re-
sentiment of the House. Of course,
nobody can tell just what shape the
bill will have when it passes the Sen
ate. With it's close balance between
the Republicans on the one side and
all the other elements on the other,
the Senate is very uncertain body
at the present time. AS the bill has
been altered in the direction of con-
servatism by the committee, how
ever, the Senate is not likely to make
any sweeping changes in it. There
have been reports all along that a few
Populist and silver Republican sena-
tors would vote for the bill if it were
made a moderate measure, and the
committee has evidently in it's re-
shaping of the bill kept in mind the
necessity of attracting some of this
outside upport.-Globe- Democrat.

CUBA.

We have heard but little of late in
regard to the Cuban war but Senator
Morgan's resolutions are being agi-
tated in the Senate, and if a vote were
to be taken on them there is chance
that the resolutions would be passed,
but the friends of the government are
anxious to keep them back so as to
not oblige President Mckinley to act
before he knows just what the condi-
tions are on the island. The president
has sent a representative to Cuba to
look up the Ruiz affair and it is
claimed that he is to report on the
general condition of the island and
that the administration intends to act
according to the nature of this re-
port. Although Spain has claimed
for some time that the revolution was
over and has talked of institutlng re-
forms, reports coming from the island
show the Cubans to be stronger than
ever, and it is claimed that Consul
General Lee has made report to the
government which is said to be very
startling in it's character. The Gu
bans still avoid fighting a pitched
battle but harass the Spanish troops
on all sides. The guerrilla warfare
which the insurgents are carrying on
can be maintained by them for an
indefinite time. The Spanish gov
ernment is trying to negotiate an
other loan but so far IS unsuccessful,
and without money she must soon
give up the island. The Spanish
troops are much dissatisfied because
they have not received their pay and
may cause trouble unless paid socn.
When President Mckinley finds out
the exact condition of things in Cuba
he will, without doubt, do the proper
thing and it would be poor plan for
Congress to pass any resolutions on
which the President would feel oblig-
ed to act before he has obtained the
information for which he is waiting.

THE SWIFTEST BOAT AFLOAT.

Extrao1 binary results have follow
bine to marine propulsion. These re-
suits have not been reached at once.
For nearly ten years one of the En-
giish engineers-Hon. Charles Parsons
who has been experimenting with
this style of engine, has been more or
less baffied. He first used a single
engine and screw, but this failed to
work with success, owing to the "ca-
vitation," or vacuum, formed behind
the propeller. His little craft-1sThe
Turbinia"- next fitted with three
separate turbines "directly coupled
to three screw shafts, tine turbines be-
ing respectively the high pressure,
intermediate and low pressure ele-
ments of triple expansion engine"
Trials were then made with this tur-
bine- driven 100 foot steamer, each
yielding higher result until, at
length, a speed of 3234 knots was Of
fcially made. This beats the worlds
record by about knot and half. If
this principle can be applied to an
ocean steamer, and this rate of speed
can be reached and maintained, it
will take less than three and a half
days to cross the Atlantic. Further
than this, the weight of the engine
will be reduced three quarters. Still
further, limit has been placed on
the speed of ordinary engines of 1000
feet minute for the piston motion,
the vibrations above this being de-
gines; the rotary engine, on the other
hand, is perfectly balanced, and no
vibration is perceptible. Mr.. Parsons
is continuing his experiments.

Almost $4,000, 900 of gold has gone
out in a little over week. Probably
$4,000, 900 or $3,OOO,OOO more will go
out before the present week ends.
Yet nobody is alarmed. Stocks have
advanced, the spectators who were
disturbed last week have recovered
their equilibrium, and even the
whoops from the Bryanite papers
have subsided. The country's bust
ness condition is not just what could
be wished, but it will get better in
stead of getting worse.

The practice Of wetting a lead pencil on
the tongue before using is an unclean
habit to say the least, and perhaps also a
dangerous one, says The Medical Review.
Recently woman Of fine bearing and
elegantly dressed stepped into the counting
room of one of the papers Of a large city to
insert an advertisement. Having no pen
Gil Of her own, she picked up one that was
tied with a string to a pad used for writ
ing. At once she mOistened the lead with
her tongue and began to write,
An elderly woman who was standing by
reminded her that the pencil had just been
used by an old man, ragged and dirty,
greasy and filthy, who also had contracted
the same habit of wetting the pencil on
his tongue every time he wrote word
The disgusted woman flung the pencil
away and scolded the young man behind
the counter until he had sharpened brand
new pencil for her use and benefit.
The habit is foolish one. Instead of
making the pencil write more freely and
easily, it hardens it and makes It write ir-
regularly. Newspaper men and those who
use lead pencils great deal never dampen
the lead in the mouth OF with a sponge,
Besides being injurious 10 the lead it is a
dangerous habit inasmuch as disease has
been known to be conveyed in that way
into the system. Philadelphia Times,
