FRIJDAI, DECEMBER 8, 1893.

THK Wilson tariff bill is well received in England. All the British paperB speak of it in glowing terms.

THAT era of prosperity that was to follow the repeal ot the purchasing •lauee of the Sherman liw seems to have been side tracked.

ONE short year ago the midnight air was ladened with the song, "Grover, Grover, four years more of Grover." The voices that sang this happy refrain kave changed their tune.

THE duty CA champagne has been greatly reduced by the Wilson bill. This is very thoughtful on the part of Mr. Wilson, who doubtless thinks that the necessaries of the poor should not be "taxed."

IT is said that Queen Liluokalam signed the contract with the Louisiana lottery the day before she was dethroned. And it is this Queen that Cleveland, Greeham and Blount propose to restore to the throne.

AM

exchange Bays that Gov. Napoleon MoKinley's prominence just now aaay be only a return from Elba. It looks more like a return from Austerlitz, since "the allied powers" in Ohio were all overthrown and routed.

"EVERY reduction of the tariff will be followed by a reduction of wages every oat in the tariff rates will be followed by a cut in the wage rates." These words of Mr. McKinley should be treasured ap by every workingman in the counM7-

THE new tariff bill leaves the McKinley bounty on sugar juBt as McKinley provided, till June, 1895. After that date it will become "unconstitutional" and will be gradually removed, and the wounds inflicted on the constitution allowed to heal.

THE free trade papers continue to howl about the burdens heaped on the people by the McKinley bill. They oonoeal all the time, so far as they can, the faot that every article of manufacture, on which the McKinly law increases the tariff, is cheaper to the consumer than tt was when the MoKinley law waB passed. Fortunately all the people have to go to the stores to buy goods, and (he most ignorant at once deteotthe falsehoods with which these papers try to gull tbein. A majority of 81,000 •otes in Ohio made manifest their indignation at the way they had been imposed on, and they will do the same thing in Indiana when they get a ohanoe.

THE Wilson tariff bill places wool on the free list. Should the bill pass Amer iean wool would come in competition with the Australian product, which can be laid down in Nev York at five cents a pound. The consumer is not the bene fioiary of this low priced wool. He will paj as much for his clothing then as he does now. The only person benefitted by the destruction of this industay will be the importer. It will be millions in his pocket. Are our farmers prepared to vote these millions out of their pock •ts and into the pockets of these foreign importers? CongressmanBrookshirehas declared it hie purpose to vote for free wool. The sheep raisers of the Eighth district will be beard from later on.

CHAIRMAN WILSON makes a very great blander when be quotes Henry Clay as being in favor of ad valorem duties. Mr. Webster once in an argument in the Senate, referred to this supposed posi tion of Mr. Clay, when he was at once corrected by Mr. Crittenden. Mr. Clay did once say that he oould see no particular objection to an ad valorem duty, if based on a valuation put on by com petent appraisers in this country. But the practice has always been to levy the ad valorem tariff on the foreign invoice, and to this Mr. Clay was bitterly opposed, all his life, and so haye been nearly all our leading statesmen, of all parties, for the reason that the most outrageous frauds were continually per petrated by falBe and deceitful invoices made out far below the real cost of the goods.

NONSENSE GONE MAD.

Tariff taxes gather and cumulate on the con sumers of the finished product. They hurt labor by narrowing the market for what it produces.--

Chairman Wilson's Statement.

If there WBB ever written in the Eng lish language two sentences of equal length, containing more misinformation than the above, it has not been our misfortune to see them. The great trouble with the tariff reformer is that he never ceases to study theories instead of facts of history, ana is always making state ments about the tariff that experience flatly contradicts. Can any tariff reformer name one instance where a tariff ever so large, on a product we can make, has ever "gathered" or "cumulated" on the one who bought the finished product? Can any plan be suggested or acted upon that will test the truth of such a statement than to go to a store and buy a tin bucket or a keg of wire nails? Both were wholly imported a few years ago from abroad and now both are being sold with heavy duties on them. Does not this fact involve every feature of the above statement from Chairman Wilson? There is not, to-day a man in America who is able to buy a tin bucket or a paper of nails but who can readily perceive the falsity of Mr. Wilson's statement. Before the duty was levitd on steel wire nails, we bought them from German factories at per keg. Sinoe that time a tariff of per keg has been placed on them and they now sell at $1.30. From this fact it seems that the tariff has "gathered" and "cumulated" in the opposite direction than the one suggested by Mr. Wilson. While this change was going on millions of dollars have been expended in building factories and in the manufacture of naile, all going directly into the pookets of the laboring class. Owing to the brisk competition among our manufacturers of nails striving for the market the tariff took from the foreigners, the price of wire nails bas diminish ed to such an extent as to startle the world. Their cheapness has consequently enlarged the market for them because they are universally used, and when a thing so universally used ie very cheap, the market for it will neces sarily grow and not be "narrowed," as stated by Chairman Wilson. If the duty on tin plate had been left as it was in the McKinley law there is no doubt that the history of the nail industry would have been repeated in tinware.

Such matters are within the observation of the most stupid and with such results how anyone can muster up courage enough to say such a tariff "gathers" and "cumulates" on the consumer and "narrows" the market of labor iB beyond our comprehension.

THE New York Sun, about the only straight Democratic paper in the metropolis, the other day put these perplexing questions to Chairman Wilson, of the Ways and Means Committee: 'How much revenue does your tariff bill cut off? Some say $40,000,000, some say 360,000,000, some say $00,000,000. As the internal revenue taxes will have to be screwed up, or some new tax or taxes imposed to make up lor the loss, it is rallier important to know what the loss will be. And yet it must be difficult to estimate. It Is conceivable that a close calculator might be $20,000,000 or so astray in his calculations. "Having a deficiency of revenue, why was it necessary to make a further deficiency, a deficiency on a deficiency, to provide for? "When do you expect that your tariff bill will become a law? Soma guess February 1 and some February 30? What is your guess? "What is a tariff for revenue only?

It would be interesting reading if Chairman Wilson or any other member of the Ways and Means Committee should undertake to answer these questions.

IT is claimed that the Wilson bill is drawn in the interests of the masses of the American people. For instance, diamonds were placed on the free list. This will be glorious news to the toiling millions, all of whom, of course, wear diamonds. Diamonds area necessity in the cottages of the poor, and it is altogether proper that the robber tariff should be removed from all the necessaries of life. The workingmen all over the country will throw up their hats and Bhout for joy at the thought of buying their diamonds cheaper!

TOLEDO Blade:—And now Gen. Lew Wallace is charged with plagiarism in his "Prince of India," which, it seems, has many pointB of similarity with "The Captain of the Janizaries," a novel by Rev. Dr. James M. Ludlow. We doubt if the charge is well founded. Both are based on the fall of Constantinople in the fifteenth oentury bat there certainly is no plagiarism in weaving a Btory about the events of a great historical episode.

CONGRESSMAN BROOKSHIRE, it seems, doesn't like lopping off the sugar bounty by such a slow process as is proposed in the Wilson bill. The Congressman probably thinks it is too much like amputating a dog's tail an inch at a time. If Mr. Brookshire wants the tariff restored on sugar why doesn't he say so?

HOT SHOT FOE BLOUNT.

Hon. John L. Stevens, ex Minister to Hawaii, has made reply to the report of Paramount Commissioner Blount, in which the Cleveland ambassador is handled without gloves. It is written in most vigorous English and shows up Mr. Blount in a most unenviable light. Mr. Stevens was on the ground and knows what he is talking about. He is corroborated by, or rather he corroborates, Mr. Thurston's statement in regard to the events leading up to the overthow of the Queen, and Bays in the most positive and emphatic terms that the troopB of the Boston were not landed until forty-eight hours after the Queen had been deposed. Mr. Blount was not there. JEU based hie report upon the evidence of the Queen and her royal lickspittle admirers. The evidence he adduced is of an exparte character, and bears upon its face all the earmarks of a prejudiced case. In point of ability Mr. Stevens has Bhown himself to be much the superior of Mr. Blount. He picks the Paramount's report to pieces and leaves him stranded on the sands of moral obliquity. In this country where both men are known the integrity of Mr. Stevens will not suffer in comparison with Mr. Blount, while in patriotism comparisons would be odious. The one fought four years to destroy the Republic, while the other fought four years in its defense. In other words Mr. Blount is a rebel who has not been fuliy reconstructed, and it is but natural that nis sympathies should go out in favor of of a monarchy more than they would to a republic. And by the Bame guage it would be natural for Mr. Stevens to extend his sympathies to a people struggling for freedom and independence rather than to a corrupt monarchy and especially to a rotten and dissolute Queen.

A GOVEKNMENTIIOF INEQUALITY.

That coming reform, proportional rep resentation, continues to receive a great deal of attention from the magazines. It is at that early stage of development that marked the secret ballot reform about six years ago and when once started will probably have the same rapid growth. If proportional repre ae&tation were properly understood it would have the hearty support of honest men in all parties because it is in the interest of honesty in government. Ii will strike down that root of so much vioious legislation, the gerrymander. In order that the public may become informed as to, the practical workings of the reform anew magazine has been started entitled The Proportional Representative Review. The leading article in the first issue is by Prof. John R. Commons, of Indiana ^University, and some of the truths he brings out shows the enormity of the injustice caused by the present methods. Among other things he says:

We area law abiding people yet outlaws are made by a minority of the people and by an irresponsible oligarchy more danger3us than that our fathers revolted against. In the present Congress the Democrats have a majority of 79 whereas they should be in a minority of 28 the People's party should have 31 votes instead of 8, and the Republicans 152 instead of 129, To call our Congress a representative body is the essence of sarcasm. The same is true of every other law making body in the land. To mention only one State, Indiana elects thirteen Congressmen. According to the popular vote they should stand seven Democrats at six Republicans. According to the gerrymander there are eleven Democrats and two Republicans. In other words every Hoosier Democrat whom you may meet has an Influence on the legislation of his country equal to that of five and two-fifths Hoosier Republicans."

Prof. Commons does not claim that proportional representation will care ail the political

evilB

but thinks that to­

gether with the secret ballot whioh we have and civil servioe reform which is about half way accomplished it will make popular government much stronger. If any State needs proportional representation Indiana does. Democrats are not going to favor it. They are preparing to defend in court the present gerrymander whioh Attorney-general Green Smith admits to be wicked and unfair. What are the Republicans going to do?

HE DECLINES.

Van Alen Refuses to Beooxne Ambassador to Italy.

A LETTER EXPLAINING HIS ACTIOS.

He Cannot Accept Anything That Alight Be Construed a* a Reward for a Campaign Contribution—Urged in Vain to Accept.

VAN ALEN SAYS NO.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.—A personal friend of J. J. Van Alen, recently confirmed ambassador to Italy, has made public letters showing that Van Alen has declined to serve. He {fives as the reason that he made a contribution to the demcratic campaign fund from patriotic and business motives and cannot accept a position of honor which may be misconstrued into a reward for a conscientious act. President Cleveland in a personal letter asks Mr. Van Alen to rescind his decision not to serve, but the latter insists on not accepting. Mr. Van Alen's friend would say nothing more than that the letters explained themselves. A reporter in Washington was sent to see Secretary of State Gresham about the matter. He said the letters were correct. He would say nothing else. The widely published story was that Mr. Van Alen gave $50,000 to the democratic fund to buy the Italian ambassadorship.

His Declination.

Under date of Newport, writing to the secretary of state, Mr. Van Alen says that he cannot accept, at the same time expressing his appreciation of the honor conferred upon him. He continues: "Among the comments upon my nomination whioh appeared In the publlo press, one charge

only merits attention, not beoause It was true, but because it waa and I suppose still Is, be lieved by many persons unfamiliar with the individuals concerned and the facts essential to the formation of an accurate Judgement. The charge was that I received the appointment In return for a contribution of J30.U00 to the democratic national campaign fund. While my nomination was pending in the senate it did not seem fitting and proper for me to oiler more than an explicit denial. I was aware that as an interested party my statement would have little efTect beyond the limits of my personal acquaintances. Now, however, when my action cannot be fairly attributed to purely selfish motives, It seems to me that a repetition of that denial, whioh I moke without qualification, should be suffloient for any honorable man. "I have never denied, anado not now deny, that contributed to the campaign fund—not 850,000, but yet a considerable sum of money sincerely believing, as I did, that a continuation of republican supremacy would be not only a hlnderance to national progress, but in time a positive menaoe to the success of popular government, and, having large interests at stake, I was Impelled by both patriotic and selfish reasons to aid the democratic cause. "So far from attaching undue importance to It, I was fully aware that the contribution meant far less Jo me than the time and effort devoted by thousands of unselfish oltizens to the same oampaign. Nor did I believe that It should entitle me to any more consideration. On the oontrary, I have not only admitted Out have positively insisted at all times that It oreated no obligation to me whatever, and I feel confident that the president, who, In faot, was kind enough to say to the democrats of Rhode Island that his personal acquaintance with me enabled him to consider my oandldacy solely upon Its merits, will bear me out In this assertion. On the other band, I Xranl-ly admit that, until after the appointment had been made, It never onoe occurred to my mind that my contribution could be used to my Injury. It therefore seems to me sufficient to add that self respect compels me to adopt the only alternative and to deollne the high office to which have been appointed."

Cleveland CJrges Acceptance. "EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, NOV. B2, 1893.—To Hon. J. J. Van Alen—My Dear Sir: The secretary cf state has submitted to me your letter of the 20th Inst in which you tender your resignation as ambassador to Italy. "I hasten to express my earnest wish that you will reconsider this conclusion. The sentiments contained in your letter do credit to your conscience and Americanism, but you must allow me to dissent from their application In this case. I did not select you for nomination to the Italian mission without satisfying myself of your entire fitness for the place. I am now better convinced of your fitness than ever. You kDow and I know that all the malignant crltlolsm that has been Indulged In regarding this appointment has no Justification, and ihat the decent people who have doubted Its propriety have been misled or have missed actual considerations upon which it rests. We should not yield to the noise and clamor which have arisen from those conditions. "My preference should enter very slightly Into your final determination, but so far as I have such preference It Is emphatically that you accept the honorable office conferred upon you and vindicate In the dlsoharge of its duties the wisdom and propriety of your selection. Awaiting an early reply, I am yours sincerely, "OEOVBB CLEVELAND.

Van Alen Determined.

Mr. Van Alen, on November 2i, replied to the president thanking him for tbe kind and flattering sentiments expressed, but firmly announcing his intention to stand by his declination as expressed in his letter to Secretary Gresham, considering it inadvisable to invite further misrepresentation by taking advantage of the president's generosity.
