THE Republican members of the House
and Senate conference on the tariff bill
have come to an agreement on every point
in the bill. This is very gratifying, but
the character of the agreement is more
gratifying still. While great number of
the Senate amendments have been accept
ed, almost every feature which has been
seriously criticised by Republicans has
been modified, and ON the whole, most
satisfactorily. The amendments throw
ing away some millions of needed revenue
by putting bags, burlaps and cotton ties
on the free list have been defeated, the
duty on white pine lumber stands as the
House adopted it, the proposed duty on
tea and internal taxes on beer, tobacco
and sales of securities have been dropped,
and the report indicates unanimous
agreement of Republican conferrees of
both houses that the bill as now shaped
adjuncts SO enthusiastically welcomed by
Democratic theorists. 1t will be highly
gratifying to most Republicans that the
differential duty in favor of sugar refners
has been retained exactly as it passed the
House, and that the reduction of a tenth
of a cent on low-grade sugars which the
Senate proposed has been dropped, SO that
a clean, definite and easily understood
specific rate has been applied on.all grades
of unre6ned sugar, closely proportional
to the value of each for refining purposes.

Thus every day is the Republican prin-
ciple of protection indicated by the for

losses from it--losses which were our
gains.-N. Y. Press.
1t is fact sustained by experience that
the Democracy of New Jersey takes its
political views largely from and finds its
examples in political practices in New
York. The methods of Tammany Hall are
accepted and followed by the Democratic
leaders in New York and also by those in
this State. The creed of Tammany Hall
is not politics for principle; it is politics
for ends. 1t is politics for what there is
in politics. And the result is uncertainty
in vote, isms in party, dissatisfaction and,
often enough, disruption. Since the in.
trusion of the free silver heresy into the
politics of the country the Democracy has
been wofully disrupted. The machinery
of the organizations both in New York
and New Jersey has fallen into the hands
of the regulators, circumstance which
has driven a large following of the old
party either to the woods or to the enemy.
A great battle is shortly to be fought at
the polls in New York. The Democratic
leaders there have been much disturbed as
to how to present the issue to the people.
Tammany Hall, which has not yet been
convicted of excess in political virtue, de-
cided to ignore the free silver question
The leaders assumed to shove it back of
them. In other words, they would re-
sort to policy of evasion. This example
