WOOD BILL.


Chairman Underwood Is reported TO
be breaking down under the strain OF
the various attacks upon his tariff bill.
and the threatened dlssensions among
his Democratic supporters. Already
1t is evident that very large number
OF the Democratic Congressman are
disposed to resist the free wool sche-

revolt against the removal of the duty
on sugar and few Democratic Con
gressmen are wavering on account Of
the drastic reductions OF various man.
ufactured products.
IL Is difficult to understand the
principle upon which Mr.. Underwood
and his associates have planned their
tariff bill.
For instance. -four a manufactured
product is made free. while a small
duty is maintained upon wheat
Shoes, a manufactured product. are
to come in free. while a small duty is
maintained on some hides and leather.
The hair of the ansora goat is pro-
tected by 20 percent duty. while the
wool OF the sheep is to come into this
country free.
10 percent advalorem duty is
placed upon kangaroo. sheep. goat and
other skins. including lamb and kid.
while all kinds of leather. Including
patent, Japan and finished. and other
leather products are on the free list.
All tariff making In tho past has
recognized the principle that manu-

somewhat higher tariff duty than raw
material. That the more labor that
went into an article. tho more fits

eEloIUM'S oREAr STRIKE.

Belgium workers have gone on a
general strike TO secure the privilege
OF manhood suffrage. In one district
over 100000 miners are idle and the
general prostrations OF industry is
threatened Russia. Germany and
Belgium are the leading nations of
Europe that have not hitherto estab-
lished equal manhood suffrage. In
some OF the German states. land own
"rs. university professors and other
special classes exercise enormous
power by multiple voting. \ land
owner of n certain class may cast as
many as sixty-four votes. In Belgium
the voting power has been limited 10
property owners and particularly to
land owners.
American accustomed TO the idea
OF universal suffrage find it difficult
to realize than In any civilized and
advanced state. the power or right Of
franchise should be denied TO any
man. yet many of the nations of the
earth have yet TO recognize the princi-
pie OF universal suffrage. The Bel
Stun strike is feature OF the move
ment among the common people of
Europe towards larger participation
IN the affairs of government. Tn.
doubtedly the Belgium strikers will
have the SVmpathV and supuOrt of
large numbers Of their brethren, both
in Germany and in France. and IL is
altogether likely that the strike will
be successful
