A change in the succession to tn
throne of Japan was one Of the events
Wednesday that on the whole seems
to be OF as much nteunporaneous
interest as the ssmlll" But Japan has
just concluded a monte Of mourning
over the death Of the dowager en-
press, during which period all bust
ness was at standstilI and the death,
though openly spoken Of, is not as
yet formally announced. TIE crown
prince is supposed to have died in one
of the palaces Of the royal family, be-
tween Yokohama and Kioto. He had
been al invalid several years. A few
years ago he stopped growing, and
it has only been through the exercise
of the utmost medical care that he
has lived since then. The prince was
the only living son of the Emperor,
and, unless, therefore, another son is
born to the Emperor, the throne will
be filed from the family of the En-
peror's eldest brother.

A change is to be no g d in the atti-
tude of many Democratic papers to-
ward a protective tariff. They are
not as sure as they were four years
ago that protective ideas are without
merit. In the first place, their party,
after distinctly pledging itself to en-
act tariff for revenue only, shrank
from fulfilling the promise when it
had possession of all branches of the
government. The tariff that was es-
tablished, and which now impover-
ishes the treasury and clogs the in
dustries of the people, is acknowl-
edged by all parties to be monde
script. I is protective in spots to
suit certain party interests, and to
this extent is a denial of free trade
doctrines. It's disastrous failure to
provide a sufficient revenue and en-
courage business activities is SO clear
that no one ventures TO dispute the
fact. The existing tariff has no
friends. and never had any as whole,
having been disowned by it's author,
and becoming law without the sig
nature of Democratic President
ST. Louis Globe.

Northern and eastern beef cattle

Things appear to be more quiet in
Cuba than usual. Am u lean citizens
there are being TT saged with more re :
spect than they were under the last
administration. Spain appears to
understand that, although President
Mckinley is not looking for war
he will not stand by and allow
them to treat Americans as they
have been doing. Weyler is keeping
in thu vicinity of Havana and giving
it out that the war is to end in a few
weeks. The insurgents appear to be
having things about their own way,
even going so far as to make an occa
sional dash into the outskirts of Ha :
vana. Spain has no money and is
not meeting with much success in her
attempts to get loan from the Euro
pean governments. With no money
in her treasury, no way to raise mon
ey, and party in power in this coun-
try which is liable at any time to re .
fuse to call out our whole navy to
look after the interests of Spain, sh e
is indeed in tight place.

President Mckinley shows b his
message that he would like to hav e
Congress in the present session c on
fine its attention to the tariff and the
four appropriation bills which faile d
in the late Congress. This, too, is
the desire of the country, and Con-
gress will probably heed If. The ap-
preparation bills will not consume
much time They are likely to be
passed in very nearly the shape they
had when they went through in the

The Island Pond Herald takes ex-
ception to the proposition of the
Vermont delegation to make New
port the main port of entry in the
new customs collection district, in
case two Vermont districts are crea
ted, and raises the claim that Island
Pond, should be made the port of en-
try for the new district instead, on
account of the greater volume of Gus
tom business transacted at Island
pond, and because of it's geographic
cal location near the center of the
customs business of the new districts.
At Island Pond the collector would be
in touch with all the most important
work of the custom house.. At New
port he would be away from the bulk
Of his work, and would be convenient
only to his own port, Derby Line and
Troy. The Herald's figures make a
good showing for Island Pond on the
score of volume Of business. st. Al
bans, it says, is the second office in
state in the amount of business tran
sacted, but the January business at
Island Pond was five times that at ST.
Adams, these being the figures: Val
ne of entries at Island Pond, ST ST.

MCKINLEY AND THE PRESS.

The Mckinley administration has
started out, in one respect, under
strangely favorable auspices. Has
there ever been time, except in war
when the newspaper of the country
were so little disposed as now to crit
icise a new president? With few ex-
ceptions Mckinley has the influential
press on his side. When other men
have held this office, powerful and
bitterly partisan opposition journals
every official act of the chief and his
3subordinates in order to manufacture
party capital. The roasting has be-
gun early and has lasted late; it has
been persistent, unmitigated, relent-
less, harrassing.
Outside of the South and the far
West, we can think Of very few prom
inent newspapers to day that prom
Use to give Mckinley any Immediate
trouble In New England, New York,
Pennsylvania and Maryland there are
scarcely any opposition newspapers
In the old sense. The New York Jour
nal, of course, must be counted
against the administration, but how
different is the opposition of that pa
per from the opposition republican
president has usually encountered in
the New York Press! When Harrison
was inaugurated eight years ago he
found the Times, Sun, World, and Her
aid all arrayed uncompromisingl
against him. In Philadelphia he fac
ed the attacks of such paper as the
Record and in Baltimore such a paper
Herald and Times to meet, and in
Louisville the Courier Jonrual But
Mckinley has no opposition that re-
ally counts from New England to the
Mississippi, save one paper in New
York, the Enquirer in Cincinnati the
Plain Dealer in Cleveland and the Sen
tiRel in indianapolis. He has even
less opposition in Chicago than in
New York. In st. Louis the Republic
opposes him, but not violently.
This results from the alignment OF
the press in the campaign. Never be-
fore was there party capable of
polling 6,5O0,O0O votes that had so
little newspaper support as the dem
ocratic party. Such papers as did
support Mr.. Bryan-and the most of
them were in the South and West
are now in opposition to Mckinley,
party an opposition that would have
a widespread, national effect. And
even these silver papers show a mark
ed disposition to give the administra
ton "plenty of rope" although it
may be in hope that it will hang it

Now is the time, if ever, for Senator
Hoar to press his amendments to the
Senate rules limiting debate and set
ting the bounds of decency to the
abuse of courtesy. The Senator may
not succeed in securing the adoption
of his reforms before the Tariff bill
reaches the upper chamber. But he
will succeed in smoking out the antic-
ipatory filibusters. He will expose
and he may spoil some prettily laid
plans for delay. 4. The opportunity be
comes more advantageous az the ru-
mors start of another Sugar Trust
raid on the Senate.
Not probably in the lives of the
present generation Of men will anoth
er occasion arise in which the expedi-
ton of the numbering procedure of
the Senate will so benefit the country
as in the consideration of the Dingley
Tariff bill. IF Senator Hoar's rnles
are to help US, let him pass them now.
If they are to bless our PROSPERITY
merely, let him refrain.-N. Y. Press.

A Washington dispatch to the Bos-
ton Journal say: The Republican
members of the Senate Committee on
Finance will not wait for the Tariff
bill to come from the House before
beginning work on it, They are de-
termined that any. delay in the enact
ment of the bill shall not be laid at
their doors, The main work on the
billin the Senate will be done by ALI
son, AIdrich and Platt. These Sena-
tors had meeting recently and took
the first step toward examining the
bill as reported to the House. Daily
meetings will be held, just as was the
case with the Committee on Ways
and Means, so that by the time the
bill passes the House and comes to
the Senate it's consideration will be
well under way. 1t is necessary for
the Republican members of the FL
nance Committee to be thoroughly
familiar with every schedule and par
agraph in the bill, for they will be
called upon to defend it even to the
minutest details. tits not improbable
that before Messrs. Platt, Aldrich and
Allison get through with it large
number Of amendments may be de-
termined upon. There will be no for
NAL hearings, but the program which
has been entered upon insures more
rapid work with the Dinley bill in the
Sanato than has ever been the case
with any other tariff.

In the year 1872, during a skirmish
with the Sioux Indians, the Third
United States cavalry formed an en-
campment in valley on the southern
border of Dakota. At night fall the
horses We're tethered by long line
to the ground Toward day break a
violent storm of rain and hail burst
over the valley, when the terrified
animals broke loose from their fasten-
ings and tore away up the steep side
of the valley into the territory of the
enemy. With our hores in the hands
of the enemy we would have been
lost; yet it was impossible, in the
darkness, to go after them into an
unknown country, probably full of
Indians. The commanding officer as
a last resource, ordered the stable
call to besounded. In few moments
every horse had returned and we
were saved.
