The special council committee on telephones,
consisting of one alderman from each ward,
Aid. Fort being chairman, met yesterday
afternoon and took up the consideration of
two drafts of ordinances prepared by Aid.
Fort, Webster and Rand, of the subcommt-
tee. The drafts were taken up section by
section, discussed and amended, as was
deemed best under existing circumstances,
with the idea Of exacting such conditions as
might be to the best interests Of the city in
case franchise is granted. Among the MORE
important amendments made was that re-
ducing the rates to be charged for business
telephones from $4S to $42 per year, the rate
for residence phones being left at $50, which
would mean a saving of about $780, 900 per year
from the rates exacted at present Other
amendments provide that twenty out of the
city's 149 phones shall be placed on the free
list, the remaining to be assessed but
one-half Of The present rate. The clause al
lowing company to charge % cents per mile
outside of the two-mile limit was stricken
out. In addition, the company which gets
the franchise will be required to string wires,
lay cables and erect poles free of charge to
the city.
The committee will meet again this morn

FORAKER WASHES HIS HANDS.

Hanna is in tight place and it gets
tighter and tighter. The oily boss is
now again looking to Foraker to help
him out of the hole. Foraker, however,
gave notice some time ago that he had
done the square thing by Hanna in
helping him in his campaign and that
he intended to take no part in the fac
tional fight in the Legislature that is
now inevitable. THE campaign of 1897
eded with me last Tuesday" said For
aker some days ago. $50 long as we
were fighting the common enemy gave
all my time and strength to the cause"
He added thai should there be a con-
test among the Republicans as to the
election of Mr. Hanna to the senatorship
e. Haad5 p9t mhKf anyth5ng 9 d sny With
occur to change mis- mind.
The meaning of this is plain. If Mr..
Hanna failed, notwithstanding Senator
Foraker's help, to get Legislature fav-
orable to his election, no blame can be
attached to the senior senator and he
washes his hands of all responsibility.
Senator Foraker was called upon to help
in securing q Republican Legislature
He responded to the call. There is the
Republican Legislature that Mr.. Hanna
asked for. Now if Mr.. Hanna cannot
get it to do what he wants, that is his
own lookout. The man who doth be-
stride the narrow world like Colossus
should not be continually crying to
Foraker, Help me, Cassius, or sink"
particularly in view of the fact that he
showed the knife deep under Foraker S
fifth rib when Foraker needed help.
Nevertheless there is Likely to be an
urgent appeal early in January for Sen
tor Foraker to go to Columbus in the in
terest of Mr. Hanna, or at least to send
a message to the too particular Foraker
ties in the Legislature who pledged
themselves to vote for a Republican SEN
ator, but object to one with Marcus for
his first name.

THE ORGAN AND THE TARIFF.

The Register. in an editorial concerning
the present tarin law as revenue pro-
and seems TO think it will keep up a
record for deficit in the future. Our
neighbor will have hard work TO convince
its readers that this Republican measure
is worse as a revenue producer than the
Democratic tariff monstrosity it sup
ted.-Intellgencer.
No. dear it's easy. Almost too easy
The Dingley bill ito increase the
revenue" went into operation on the
oath Gay of July last.
The latest treasury report of
the revenues and expenditures from
August l to the end CT the first week
in November-which does not include
the first week of the Dingley tariff
shows that the deficiency in the treas
ury was $780, 121 ,629. Or, beginning with
the fiscal year, July 1, the deficit is
$40,S19,393.
This is at the rate of over 100000
600 for the current fiscal year. The
sanguine friends of the Dingley bill in
Washington 90 not now expect the de-
felt to fall below 100000, 900 for the
fiscal year.
Now, to compare these figures with
the Wilson bill: The deficiency I'M
der the Dingley bill for four months
and one week of the fiscal year, which
includes about three and one-half
months of the actual operation of the
measure, almost equals the total defc-
iency for the two last years of the
Wilson tariff.
In other words, the total deficiency
under the Wilson bill during the two
last f. cal years of that measure ended
June 80, 81. was only $4,000, 900,
while during but four weeks and one
month of this fiscal year including
three and one-half months of the

$41, 900, 900.

The Philadelphia Press has finally
come to the conclusion that it is best to
tell the truth in a case like this, SO it
says of the result in Pennsylvania
"The Democrats carried about twice as
many counties as they did year ago,
and in most instances this was due to
party conditions in the state at large,
and not to anything merely local. 1t
not only means the loss of county Offices
but taking the vote OF last Tuesday, it
means the loss of six Congressional dis
tricts now represented by Republicans,
together with a considerable number of
members Of the Legislature"

mayor elevating to high Office men whose
Democracy is pure and straight.
Judge Van Wyck means by that only
men who, like himself. voted for 90
cent dollar and for all the dangerous doc
trines of the Chica go platform. No others
need apply. The Cleveland, the Mckinley
and the Low Democrats are thus politely
notified that they will not be wanted.
Those who have been fooishly contend
ing that the New York election had no
national significance may think differently
when they hear the wild shout of joy that
will go up from every free silver commun-
lily, and when they begin to realize that
henceforth New York city, not Denver,
Colo, will be the center Of this movement
against the prosperity of the country and
the credit of the nation.
Now, Lor- Cora mighty! Run! run;
everybody! The COLLINS are coming!!
But, seriously, what ails Porter?
Why does he take on so and alarm him.
self and annoy his nervous readers by
such crazy warwhoops and insane glib
berish about assaults on the prosper
ity and credit of the nation. Who is
this journalistic adventurer and cheap
politician that he should get scared at
the thought that six or seven millions
of American voters are going to de-
liberately ruin their own country?
Porter has nothing to lose, at any rate,
and the avariciCus gold ring of Wall
street and London, for whom he has
these fits at so much per fit in coin
Of the realm, will probably be able to
find refuge~in dear old gold standard

will do that when in 1900 they vote to
reverse the crime of 73 and return to the
American standard of money-the gold
and silver money Of the Constitution
under which this nation prospered for
more than century.
Meanwhile Tammany will have an
opportunity to render to the people of
this country the greatest service ever
given by any local political organiza-
tion if it will proceed along the line
indicated by Mr. Van Wyck, and bring
all its resources to preparing in New
York for the elections of next fall and
of 1900, and we are inclined to think
that is precisely what II IS going to
do in spite of all the prophets of evil
and their wailing jeremiads.

TAMMANY AND SILVER.

While Tammany had sufficient polit
ical wisdom to keep national issues,
especially the silver question, out Of
the Greater New York mayoralty cam
paign, it is none the less a fact that
the result in New York is regarded,
even by the gold bugs Of the metropolis
as a triumph for silver. 1t is pointed
out that the major portion CT the mon
ey influences which helped to carry
New York for Mckinley were avowedly
arrayed ON the side of Seth Low in the
mayoralty campaign. The point was
rot dwelt upon very much, but it is
now being clearly brought to the front
and is conceded on every side. 1t
came into prominence first when the
Citizens Union, which was supporting
Low, issued public notice that it
wished to receive no more campaign
funds. 1t had more money than it
could use.
No sooner was Van Wyck elected
than he made an announcement of the
policy which he would follow in max
ing the thousands Of appointments I'M
der his control. He said: Put none
but Democrats on guard, is the motto
of my administration, and reinforced
the declaration with this: THE man
for office under me must be honest,
worthy, fit, yes; but he must be a
Democrat, and the record of that man S
Democracy must be pure, must be
straight. In other words, the man
he appoints must have supported
Bryan and the Democratic ticket last
fall. Commenting on this turn, Mr.
Robert P. Porter, writing to the Chi
cago InterOcean, says:
While the political outlook from the Re-
publican point of view is far from en-
couraging, these utterances at least indi-
cate the fight for 1900 will be an open
one and not one from ambush
The victory here and elsewhere will be
regarded, and rightly as a victory for ele-
ments against which Mckinley contended
in 1896. and we may properly expect to
find these forces taking heart all over the
country and presenting a solid and threat
ening front at the Congressional election
next fall. Republicans who joined the
Low forces because they considered the
election a question of streets and side
walks and water supply, and not of ma
tional significanfe, will probably see their
folly when jan finds the enemy
