THE ISSUE.

The tariff is the issue before the ma
ton. No other conclusion is deducibIe
from American history, or from polit-
ical events. or from business condi-
lions. Criticism of the sugar schedule
Or of the WOODEN schedule, may cloud
the political horizon in places tenn
under the protective principle of the
tariff which sheds the sunshine of
prosperity over the land. The recent
change of the manner of choosing the
rules committee by the house and the
vote refusing to depose Cannon from
the speakers chair, in no wise impair
ed the issue, but rather emphasized it
as paramount to all others. All of the
th1rty-six insurgents, except nine, after
voting for the reconstruction of the
rules committee, Joined the regulars in
a vote of confidence to Cannon, one of
the high priests of the tariff. The free
trade and low tariff Democrats were
playing politics. Their hope of power
hangs upon possible combinations with
dfsaffected politicians and factions. It
is recent history that Democratic COM
bination with the greenbackers, free
silverites and Populists inoculated
these third parties with the germs of
free trade and the ideas of tariff
for revenue only" and resulted in their

protection, incorporated into law, the
nation owes the development of its
workshops, the welfare of its working
people, its unprecedented prosperity,

PEARY's FATE.

The fate of Peary should be an ex-
ample to the man who is snob and
hog. When Peary\ turned back all
his white companions when he was
within few miles of the pole so that
the glory of being the only man to
stand at the top of the world might
be his alone he showed his true spirit.
he inquired that his profits on his
DOCKS and lectures would be greater
III ne preculded the possibility of any
or his brave companions bearing that
distinction with him. When he reach
ed civilization and found Cook with
his prior claim he was crazed. His
ungenerous treatment of Cooks trav-
cling companion has never been for
gotten by the American people. Now
Peary is reaping the rewards of his
selhshness and arrogance. Congress
mas refused him credit or honor be-
cause he has refused to submit the
proofs of his discovery to the scru-
tiny of it's experts, preferring the
money that will come from his sale
piecemeal to the magazines. A
southern governor and southern
mayor refused last week to introduce
him to an audience. They said they
would take part in no mere money
making scheme. The explorers au-
dience was small and, learning of the
feeling toward him he has cancelled
all his southern engagements. Eu-
ropean scientists openly express doubt
that he reached the pole, alleging that
he could not have made the speed
that he says he did after he left his
companions when his records show
that he made only half that progress
at other times. Peary's achievements,
bringing him little respect from any,
