THE TARIFF BILI"-l his measure
from which our Republican friends
pretend to expect great results in the
way of restoring prosperity to the
country is still under consideration
in the Senate. Senator Vest declares
that Republican hopes built on this
bill are doomed to utter disappoint-
ment. 1t is folly, he contends, to
hope for a restoration of prosperous
times and better prices by the i'm
position of higher taxes upon the
people. My State" says Senator
Vest, 4" is a large agricultural State

farmers of the West and South?
Mr.. President, who believes that the
imposition of these tuNrS will bring
relief To the people whom President
Mckinley tells us are the great sub.
stratum of prosperity in this coun-
try ?"
There is no disposition on the part
of the Democrats To delay the meas.
ure. The bill As it came from the
Finance Committee Of the Senate is
radically different from the Dingley
bill passed by the House, and it will
be many weeks yet before all diff.
ferences will be rec0ncilod and the
bill finally passed.

NATION READY TO TAKE ITS
MEDICINE. - Senator German, of
Maryland, is quoted as saying that
the tariff will be passed in the SEN
ate by the middle of this month
What Senator German says about
tariff bills goes. He is an insider.
His views are not gueSSpS. II pleaSes
the Record to know from such en-
pert authority that the tariff game
Is approaching its last stage, when
the two houses will settle in confer-
ence and caucus what they couldn't
agree upon in the open air, and in
the face of their fellow-men.
The nation is prepared to take
the new taritfjust as traveller caught
in thunder shower is prepared to
take ducking-n because he de-
sireS it, but because he cannot escape.
Business men are anxious that the
tariff bill shall be passed-not be-
cause they approve of the proposed
changes, but because delay and I'M
certainty are harder to bear than
any conditions which may be I'M
posed. The United States will be
checked in their imperial growth by
the shackles imposed upon industry
and commerce when Dingley and
Aldrich and Mckinley shall have
completed their work. But the
country can stand a heap of misgov-
eminent, extravaganza and folly,
and yet be the best country in the
world to live i'm PhRa. Record.

4 Republican Quarrel.

1t appears that Republican Sena-
tors were much displeased with the
statements made by Senator Aldrich
as to the effect of tho sugar schedule
in the pending tariff bill. 1t has
leaked out that Senator Uawley, of
Connecticut, and Mr.. Aldrich had
an angry discussion over this sub
iect i'm the conference committee
room. Senator Hawley, it is said,
told MIR. Aldrich that there was a
growing feeling among his colleagues
in tho Senate, that in the prepara-
ton Of the tariff bill he had been
actuatcd by ONLY two motives the
first to make so many unimportant
changes in tho House bill that it
would practically hc a new measure
and would be called the Aldrich bill,
and the second the framing Of GER
tain schedules in the interest of his
personal friends. Mr.. Iawlcv is nj

MCkinlCN'S Policy.

Senator Teller does not believe
that Spain can drive this country
into war and he has no fear of
war with Spain as result of the
Morgan resolution granting beligcr-
ant rights to Cuba.
"This administration" says the
Senator, "is too cowardly TO do any
thing. 1t is afraid of offending
Spain. The passage Of that rcsOlu-
ton does not mean anything at all
except that the President can not
control the Senate as he does the
House. 1t will be defeated in the
House as sure as it gets there. Reed
will say it shall not pass, the Presi-
dent will say it shall not pass, Hanna
will say it shall not pass and the
trucking Republicans in the House
will yield. 1t does not matter at all
what the private opinions Of the
members may be.
1t is evident that tho administra-
ton is entering upon foreign policy
rs contemplate and pusillanimous as
was that Of Cleveland. 1t is a shame,
but there is no help for it. The peo-
can speak only through their repre-
sentatives and they are dominated
absolutely by the administration. L

demonstration vigorous enough to
have any effect upon the Presidents

A PLEASANT INCIDENT.

Il shows the NOn-PaFtisan Character
Of the Silver Issue.
An incident in the Transmississipp'
congress was creditable to all con
cerned, although it is evident that Mr..
Craig labored under a misapprehensiOn.
Hugh Craig, of California, was chosen
president of the congress, to succeed
Mr.. Bryan, and later the congress de-
clared in favor of free silver, Mr..
Craig said that as the congress had de-
clared for a policy opposite to his own
views it might be embarrassing for that
body to have him at his head; and he
rendered his resignation.
Mr.. Bryan. who always says the right
thing in the right place, assured Mr..
Craig that his personal Views need not
interfere in the slightest degree with
his holding the Office TO which he had
been chosen; that the action Of the con
gress carried with it no partisan in
ference as to its officers, ThereupOa
Mr. Craig withdrew his resignation.
California was hOnored in the choice
of one Of its representatives as the pre-
siding officer OF the congress. Mr.,
Craig's manly offer and Mr.. Bryan's
graceful rejoinder viii form a pleasant
memory. 1t emphasized the fact thai
silver is not a purely partisan issue, and
showed that the TransmississipPi con
gresg, while holding decided views upon
all great questions Of the day, does not
descend, te mean Partisanship in its
acts.-Los Angeles Herald.
