FAILURE OF PROTECTION.

Kvar since th inauifUrmUan of Har rison there ha beesi an uneasy feeling in tke woolsm trade and a steady de cline in tbe prloe of iron. i litis produce jut tan situation Re publican eratora declared mut follow th nlection of Mr. CktvoUnd. A number of manufacturer contributed so liberal!)- to the caraijf n fund last fall that they have recently been fereed to iako an Bsljrnment. leaving tkeir creditor with the bajf to hold. To reconcile thi situation with their promUect and prophecies exhausU the ingenuity of tbe average editor, or his faith in the credulity of his reader.. So even such organs aa the New York Tribune betrin to hedge. It de clare that as protection is not in tended to retard the progress of in dustrv, therefore," it does not hinder the development of cheaper instead of more costly sources of domestic supply. This will be alurmlng information to the contributors to tbe Wanamnker lund. "What re we here for if not to be protected?" they may well ask. It is not the strong industry that needs protection, but the weak establishment where it is expensive to make iron or stewl or cloth. Other e&iablishnienU able to cope with foreign competition do not need protection. This was the burden of the Republican speeches in opposition to the .Mills bill. It was to protect the "costly sources of domestic supply" tbnt the Republicans voted' again: a reduction of the tariff on pi?-iron from $6. 72 to f5. Th bost located furnaces make iron for less thas $9; certainly they do not need protection to the extent of $6 ton. S.ren million tons are used in America, and the tax on this quantity would amount to $42,000,000, and may be exacted before foreign iron enn be imported to any considerable extent. It was to protect the most costly source of domestic supply of steel rails that the Republicans opposed the reduction, of the tariff from $17 to $11 per ton. The present tax is equal to 100 percent In addition, freight, com mWton, etc. serve to put foreign competition at a disadvantage. Just now $25 is the price for steel rails, and if the tariff were reduced to $6 it would be sufHcient to protect the cheaper sonroes of supply. But the Republicans opposed any reduction because if there should be a boom they wish Mr. Carnegie to have the privilege of advtamjr the rate to $30 and $40 without interference from abroad. This is sufficient to show that the purpose of the tariff as it stands is to protect not the cheaper but the more costly sources of domestic supply. If this had not been the purple of the Republicans they would not have opposed the Mills bill. The Tribune ndih: "Neither is protection intended to mnke wages advance all the time. " This we are all ready to believe; at any rate if such were its purpose it ha failed lamentably. The plea for protection is that as wages in America are naturally higher, aa manufacturers must py these high wages, "therefore," these same manufacturers must be protected. This is the plea that gets the money from the manufacturer. To get the vote of the working-man the assertion changes and he is threatened with lower wages if the tariff is re duced. Thus when the Democrats proposed to reduce the tax oa pig iron seventy-two ctnts, leaving the tax at six dollars a ton the working-men were warned that it meant a reduction of wages, though the wages in r ton of iron do not amount to more than half of six dollars. The bill tniled; wage? were reduced, and now tbe Tribune is explaining that working-men must not "expect wxes to advance all the time." We commend this admission to the working-men who l.t fall were frightened into voting for Harrison. Louisville CourierJournal. RANK EXTRAVAGANCE.

If this rate of increase would be maintained for the next ten years the disbursements for pensions at the end of that time would be about $2,000.000. The receipk from customs taxes last year amounted to about $2 U, 000. 000 and from internal revenue to about $l2I.OJ.U00-a total of $3j:i,000.000. If the disbursement for general purposesand thesi do not include thows for the reduction of the pubUu debt should not increase at nil in the next decade and the present rate of increase in the disbursement for pensions should be maintained, there would be a call for $70,000.000 store than the present revenue nfforcs. It naturally follows that if the expenditures for pensions increase at men a pace a that sot by the new commlioncr there must be no catting down of tbe revenue. This seems a strange statement in view of the statement that have been made concerning the lnjuritnt axkUmee et tke fur4 m.

Providence 11 I.) Journal (Ind. Hep.). FIGHTING FOR SPOILS. Oar Peek ml AT president aad the Twe hhi-uli-from I tibial. There will be two iitnueatial gentlemen at the meeting of the next Congress who are likely to make Preident Harrison put in a very uncomfort- , able time. They represent the great State of Illinois in the United State , Senate, and they claim the right to determine certain Government appointments in that State, according to the views once held by the President when he was a Senator. Senator Farwell is particularly exercitsed in mind over the way lie has been ignored as to Illinois appointments. Tbe l'reti- j linn I nt-ni fnn.tt1twl lilm n. K.n.tn, I Cullom about the Minister to England or the collector at the capital of the State, Hence, both Senators are in an unpleasant frame of mind at what they consider nn implied insult. Mr. Farwell has already cxpree4 his sense ol the situation ia rery emphatic terms: "I am tired of shillyshallying, and, as I remarked to the President the last time I saw him, I have no desire or intention of getting down upon my knees and begging for favor." It ooks very much, then, as if there was a sultry time ahead for Haby McKee's grandpa from the Illinois corner of the Senate. Indeed, there is excellent ground to believe tbat the administration will be subjected to a fire of tostile criticism from many leaders of its own party for its failure to satisfy the demands of the boys. Even Wanamaker's lord high executioner does not expedite business to suit them, al though he lms alreadv beaten the record.
