FIGHT JUST BEGINNING.

In the movement of certain high pro-
t~ectionist leaders in Congress to bring
about a reorganization Of the House
WAYS and Means Committee which will
eliminate Representative Babcock from
that committee there is proof of the eX
ceeding improbability of honest tariff
revision under Hanna control.
This movement against Babcock, in
retaliation for his aggressive efforts in
behalf of a general revision of the exist
ing tariff, will have effects reaching
beyond the Representative thus TO be
punished. Notice is thereby served on
all Republicans who dare TO oppose the
sacred principle of high protection
that they will be summarily dealt with.
They cannot hope for the distinction of
place on the more important congress
sional committees. They will be de-
graded and belittled in every way pos
sible TO the dominant protectionists.
The wires win be laid for their defeat
in the next Congressional elections if
this is within the power of the trusts
and the trust Instruments.

EDUCATORS ENTERTAINED BY

Sedan, Their Wives, and Mr..
and Mrs. John SchrOers
Are Guests.

Three OF the most prominent educators
in Missouri, with their wives. were enter
tanned by the Cabanne Club last night
with a reception and banquet. The guests
were: President and Mrs. X. II. Jesse Of
the University of Missouri, Professor f.
Louis Sedan. superintendent OF the st.
Louis public schools. and wife; and Pres!-
dent John Schroers of the Board Of Educa-
ton Of the city of st. Louis. and Mrs.
Schroers.
Speeches of welcome were made by
officers of the club and short replies by the
gentlemen guests at the club hail, where
were assembled many of the Cabanne mem
bers. These talks dealt with educational
topics and the progress OF St. Louis schools
and colleges in late years.
President Jesse told about the growth and
greatness of the institution at Columbia
over which he presides. and In the pride OF
which all Missouri shares. His remarks
were especially interesting and heartily en-
jOyed.
Professor Sedan and President Schroers
referred more particularly to educational
work under way in St. Louis, and told what
was being done to improve and enlarge the
public schools of the city. They showed a
most satisfactory condition Of affairs. and
gave a promising forecast OF the citys ed
vocational future,

reception at the clubroom, where all OF the
members were given an opportunity 10

hind these tariff-revision Republicans,
however. which the prOtectionists are
failing to take into account. The rank
and tile of Republican voters have had
their Eyes opened TO the bunko nature
of Il high protective tariff. Meu like
Babcock are not leading the sentiment
of their constituencies when they fight
for tariff reduction. They are following
that sentiment. Republicans Of the
Middle West especially demand Il re-
vision of the tariff. The developments
of the approaching session of Congress
will amply prove the truth of his az
sertion. There should be some sig
nlicant news from Washington during
the progress of this session.
Also, there should be much excellent
campaign material manufactured for
the profit of the movement in favor Of
tariff revision. The protectioniSt tools
of the trusts in the present Congress
may succeed in preventing tariff redhc-
ton by throwing down the gage of bat
tie TO the revisiuuiSts and using the
power Of the trusts To diSarm on utterly
crush them. but his prevention will be
temporary indeed. The Congressional
elections of 1896 are destined To be dis
astrous to the syndicates and 10 syn
dicate heuchmen in the National Con
gress. Tariff revision, coupled with the
trust issue proper. is au exceedingly
vital issue. American sentiment de
mands the reduction of the tariff and
the restriction of the trusts under com
petent governmental supervision.

DDDGING.

In The efforts to forget the first
charges of embezziement against Demo
cratic officials the Globe-Democrat tries
vainly TO kick up a dust over detached
statements gathered from different
sources. Hardly a day has passed but
what some phrase regarding Il minor
matter is removed from the context in
order to deceive the reader.
In the report of the expert recount
ants employed by Governor Dockery the
statement Is made that there is AN ap-
parent unsettled balance of S15o.33 in
the ccountS with kOhn. Pepper n
Co" Continuing. the report says that
the exhibit regarding these transactions
is made by. using the statements fur
nished by the firm. there being no
formal entry Of the details on the gen
eral books of the State.
With this as Il basis the Globe tries
70 shift attention from the first charges.
These original charges and manufac-
tured fluctuations have been absolute
ly refuted. The Globe is beaten aud
now seeks a new muddle.
The Globe knows that there are
vouchers in jefferson City for the funds
which kohn. Pepper n Co. handled.
The statements furnished by this firm
are verified by receipts and Cancelled
bonds and coupons. There has been no
chance for Missouri to be robbed
through discrepancies in accounts with
this irin. aside from the apparent I'M
settled balance of $1J0.33, to which ref
erence is made by the experts.
There is 10 detailed statement of the
various transactions with kohn, Pepper
4 Co. on the Auditors records. As
all dealings with this firm were had
through the Fund Commissioners, their
records stand as prima facie evidence
of integrity. These records have not
been detailed in their entirety by the
Auditors. a custom begun by the Re
publicans who held the office between
1850 and 1873. Criticism of this prac-
tice comes with poor grace from the
Globe-DemOcrat, the paper which has
consistently defended the real mistake
of S2,432,42S discovered in the accounts
of the period when Republicans con-
trolled the State administrations.
All Of the Globes h~ullabaloo of de-
tached sentences only serves TO EN-
phasize that papers anxiety to get
away from the first charges of EN-
bezzlement preferred when its campaign
Of defamation began. The primary and
principal issue of whether the State nas
been robbed cannot be ignored.
And that is the basis OF all the Globes
misrepresentation. Unless the Globe
can prove that So had been used TO pay
81 of debt and that State bonds have
been sold and the money used to pay
running expenses the card house
tumbles. When the Globe stated these
two things to be facts, Missourians had
Il right to know the truth. Governor
Dockery and Auditor Allen have demon
| strated that Democratic administration
of Missouri finances has been of Il ma.
ture to command the favorable comment
