Senator White,

|pf California, has just been selected
hs Chairman of the Democratic
Congressional Committee. He is
q sound Democrat and voted
against the immigration bill.
Senator Faulkner's reelection
for that position would have been
unfortunate, tor he was paired off
a favor Of the Lodge Know-Noth
ing Republican bill, and could,
therefore, not have been expected
to make any capital out OF that
issue for the benefit Of the Demo
cratic party.

Resolved bv the Senate and the House

OF America in Congress assembled, That
the Secretary OF the Interior be and
hereby is directed to order the Commis-
siouer of Pensions to exhibit TO members
OF Congress, on their request, the list OF
persons drawing pensions within their
respective districts.
1t is very simple and certainly it
is very reasonable.
No honest man who is drawing
pension can possibly object to it.
The pension OF an honest pensioner
is an honor to him and to the coun-
try that pays 1t.
The resolution strikes only at
the dishonestpensioner-the fraud,
the cheat. the falsifier, the liar, the
perjurer who is dishonesty draw
ing money that ought to go to
some honorable old soldier who
really served his country and sac
rihced himself for it.
If all these cheats could be
stricken off the pension rolls the
Government could easily afford to
maintain all its deserving pension.

tariff reform" law, which brought
the country to the verge of ruin.
Within brief year we have seen that
animosity die out, first in England
and gradually in Germany and France
until at the present time nearly the
whole of Europe is manifesting a
desire to be friends with the most
resOurceful nation in the world
In some quarters it has already been
suggested that the American tariff is
no longer needed. The London "West-
minister; Gazette" says that if we de
sire the continued support of Great
Britain we must give freedom of trade
to that country. Our experience with
free-trade has been too recent to pay
such a price for something which,
while it is desirable, is not absolutely
necessary. The American tariff is
still needed, and will probably always
be needed, if only to protect our mills
from the ruinous competition of for
eign job lots sold at any price.-Phila-
delphia Inquirer.
