GROWING REsTLEssNsss.

The republican editors appear to understand that there is a growing restlessness in the rank and file of their party with respect to the tariff question. The Washington cores pondeRt for the Chicago Tribune says: Tariff reciprocity as the beginning of tarir revision may be made the chief issue of the short session of the fifty-ninth congress. It is more than likely that after the election in No yember steps will be taken in the di- rection of the passage of a general reciprocity law. This does not mean that any such law will be passed next winter, because that absolutely is i'm possible at the short Session of con gress. It is likely. however, that some preliminary action will bestaken by way of the appointment of com mission or joint committee Of the two houses of congress to draft some thing in the way of reciprocity law which will meet the demand for such commercial arrangements. Whatever reciprocity there is must be by a new law, because the reciprocity feature of the Dingley act expired two years after its passage and none of the treaties negotiated under it's provi- sions succeeded in securing ratifica- tion by the senate"

least, is the way they have planned it at Sagamore Hill.
 It would be an easy way to avoid troublesome pledges and leave the congressman elected free to follow their own sweet wills and the will of the president and speaker. But it is by no means certain that Chairman Sherman can hold the campaign with in the narrow lines marked out for it.
 Here in the west voters ale not go- ing to be satisfied with the bald as sertion that the Dingley act is the per lection of tariff legislation. Nor are they in the mood to admit tl,at "a congressman has done his full duty who has voted only the will of he president, and proposes to go on do- ing so if reelected.
 It is simple plan of campaign which the president and Chairman Sherman have prepared. It will be strongly backed by the monopoly tar if interests, but it is based too much on the theory that there is only one man in the United States to give it good promise of success.

HIDDEN HAND OF THE MoNEYED OlIGkRCHY."

Tn the recent session ot congress the rhidden hand of the moneyed oligarchy." according to writer in the St. Louis Republic, stretched out and left just enough antitrust law to give the republican spellbinders campaign sky rockets and not enough to protect the people," The Republic writer presents this bill of principles: .' Broad court review! No anti injunction clausei' cried the great railroad trust. It won. Let the peo- pie pay inspection costs. No dates on labels,' was the shibboleth of the beef trust. It won. No government standards, The right to use harm less coloring and flayoring extracts!' was the war cry against the pure food bill. It won. These were the crucial points of the battle ground, and on this field the interests of the great American people perished. Yet these men,i who surrendered the people to the trusts, will go forth in the next campaign and point with pride tc their fangless rate bill, their dehorned beef bill and their harmless pure food bill They will rekindle the verbal aurora borealis which the president set a shimmer about these measures. IT the awesome glow many will be dazzled into indifference unless they hark bacl; to that hurry-up confer ence and remember the hidden hand that gave the trusts all the vital thing, they asked-nay. demanded"

rHe REpueLIcAN DOLLAR.
(Prescott Courier.l

(PrescotI Courier.l
 In a recent address issued to the faithful, Governor Kibbey. chairman of the territorial republican central committee, says in part:
 'T feel quite sure, with more time for thorough organization of the com nlittees, that the money heretofore spent in campaigns can be more economically and much more effec- lively used, and that in the aggre- gate there need be no more spent. think it needs no elaboration to say that sl expended after proper or .ganization can be made more efficient than g spent ia the usual haphazard manner heretofore prevalent.
 By the above from the King Bee republican of the territory, 1t will be seen that our republican friends, so noted for their political dollar power. think that not sufficient power has been extracted from their political dol lars in previous campaigns in Arizona, and that by more up to date process, one dollar can be made to do the work that two dollars did before. Just how or by what process 1T is proposed to stir these previously alleged lazy dol lars to double effort is not known. It may be that the chaps who have had in hand the matter of handling them have not placed them all in the prop CT channels; or it may be that they just hung on to them and did not place them at all. However it may be, the republican campaign dollar has of flcial notice that no loafing will be tolerated and tha+ It has a double task ahead of it. We believe il has, in view of the iooint statehood infamy, at- tempted mine coniscation and so on.
