A compakatively new process 0/ steel making—the Clapp G^ffl'.hs— whioh is being Introduced in Penn sylvania, was tbcsul j ct of an inter* eating paper recently’ read at a meet<* ingof mining engineers a! P,,teburg. O.iver B’othert & Phillips were the first to take it up in this country,and they represent that it is not only more economical than the Bessemer process, but that it produces steel of u superior quality fn in stock that could not be used for B ssemer stei 1. This, after ail, is the mat tr of prime ini- portance. Mr Oliver staled that sev> erity per cent of the L ke Superior and Iron Mi untain ores are adapta ble for steel making l y this process, though useless for the Bessemer. Oli ver Brothers & Phillips a r e making three grade* of steel by this method, and in the lowest grades use pig metal containing as much as .03 per cent of phosphorous. The new steel Is said to be partlou'arly well adapted for nail plates. The Pr« ld»r> Appels men*. The democratic press very geuer» ally Beems to condemn the a t of President Cleveland in appo ntiug J C Matthews to be recorder of deeds, at W ishicgton Matthews is a negro of Albany, New Y rk, and succeeds Fred Dcugla.s, who is also a negro. We must confess that there are oir» cumstacccs conuec-ed with this ap-. pointment that are not in full accord with our wry of thinking, but we are not disposed to critic! e '.he presi dent harshly. We feel more disposed to uphold him in the great work of reform he has undertaken, and if negroes are to bt appointed we tee no reriBon why they should not receive appointments to . fll.-e in the north ern states and districts. The south ern dtmoernts hove ail along protest ed against the manner in which re. publican presidents have given ecu hern appointments to : e^roes and refused to make such nomina tions in the north. Iu commenting on this the Washington Oti'ie a,:: “By every consideration of party Justice, as well as local expediency, the District democrats were entitled to the position. There is not a re- publioan in the city of Washington who would not have acclaimed as fair and right the appointment of ary one of the several gentlemen aspirli g to the honor. There la not a repub lican In the United States senate who would have lifted h a fl tger agains liis coi-firniation. Tile ap pointment would have been in no sense a violation of civil esrvioe re- form principles." It occurs to us t- at it is rather a weak iv'gutnent to suggret what re publicans like or dislike under such ciicumstan es. Tiny have long einct demonstrated that when it comes :o an appdnlmeut oti e* than in the south they prefer any kind of a white man, democrat or republican, to a negro. But a Washington special telle ue that “the president thinks that colored democrats deserve some reoognltion, and he felt that since the office in question had al ways been ocoupled by a re publican colored man it would be just as well to have a colored democrat succeed him. The party professes a desire to be fair toward the oolored man and this sieoied to be a good time to redeem the implied pledge U, tier the circumstaDcaa Matthews was tbe man. He is comp 'etit and an accomplished lawyer, and he has been a faithful and industrious dem ocrat for in uy yeais The chances are that all the existing irritation will disappear, and that In the end Matthews will give satisfaction on all hands.” Whether the appointment meets the approval of the democratltio masses or not, we submit that some of the harsh criticisms of the demos cratic press, and particularly of the south, are unwarranted, unjust and not such as to aid the suecess of the democratic admlnle'ration, Tub Kiiaftlloii*! Hill. Af»our readers liave already te n Id* formed the B'air educational bill has passed the senate and now goee to the house. Ii was thought that tbe po litical discussion causi d by this bill would eo weaken it aa to unable it to be passed by the tenate. If ike num erous amendments with which then* was a disposition to load it had been adopted, it would have insured tbe defeat. One of the moet obje ctiona ble of these amendments w s that by Senator Allison, which provided for the distribution of the luud between Ihe races on tbe basis of illi'eraoy. This amendment wi-s very properly rej cled and the bill passed by a vote of 36 to 11, or more than three to one. Toe political vote on the bill ia In- terislit g. Two-thiids of tbe demo* cratic senators voted fur the bill, the vote being six'.ten for and eight against it. There were four souths e n democrats who voted against the bill. There wete twenty republicans for and three against it. 80 many amendments werecff.red, some of whloh were edopted and others rijeeted, tla' it iad.fit ult for the casual reader to keep pace with it. The bill, as it pass d tbe sens e. provides that for eight years after its passage there Bhall be annuully appropriated from the treasury the following sums In aid of common school education in the states and territories and the District of Colurn Ida and Alaska : Firat year, $7,000,- C00; second year, $i0 000,000; third year, $15,000,000; fourth year, $13, 000,000; fifth year, $11,000,000; .ixtb y ear, $9 000.000; evfDth year, $7 000,* 0C0; eighth year, $5 000 000; making $77,000,000, besides which there is a special appropriation of $2 000,000 to aid in the erection ofacbooi bouses in sparsely settled districts, making the total fund $79,000 000 The mauner in which the money is divided between thB several states and territories ia “in that proportion which the whole number of pereouB in each who being of the age of 10 years and over oaunot write, bears to the whole number of Bucb persons in the United States,” according to the census of 1880, until the oeuana figures of 1890 shall be obtained, and (hen according to the latter figure, lu etaus having separate schools for white and colored children, the money shall he paid cut in support of such white and colored sohjols, re spectively, in the proportion tla white and colored children between 10 and 21 yearBold in such state bear to each other by the census. One of the requirements of the bill ia that no etate is !o receive the bent fl of the act until its governor shall file with the secretary of tbe in terior a statement giving full statis tics of the school system, attendance of white and colored children, tbe amount of money expended, etc, the number of schools in operation, the number and compensation oi the teachers, etc. N > state or territory shall reoeive in any year from this fund mure money thau it has paid out the pievious year from its own revenues f >r common schools. If any s ate or territory declli ei to take its shureof the national fund tuch share ie to be dietribu’ed among the states accepting the bent fit of the fund. It will thna be seen that many of the otjeotlonal features of the bill, which caused so heated disouaslon in the e.mate, have been removed, and tbiB accounts for the surprisingly la*g<* vote It received. It will be thoroughly discussed in the houee, and the indications are not very plain, but it is believed that it will pass. Evoaomlei ■■ggnUd, Bridetreet* eaya that ‘‘newspapers of the south are full of gloomy predic tions regarding the outcome of cotton raising if the present low prices are not to improve ” Its report received from a great many places last wtek go far to sustain this view, and that ) urual makes this in the way of a prediction: “One thing at least is cer'ain, methods more comomioal in the growing and handling of cot ton in the south must be introduced Everywhere in all linos of production tUe greatest economies are belDg introduced. The ootton pro ducer of the south can but follow tbe example. It ie an easy matter, as customary with southern papers, to advise the planter to foreake the ruin* ous credit system. R.form in this direction will be very gradual Indeed L wer interest rateB will gradually come about over tbe greater part of the south as capital from the money osnters finds its way thither. They must be the chief L fiueuce in lessen lug the drain for unary. It is plain that the d (Terence between the rate of interest, say at N.;w Y rk and at any point in the older agricultural regions of t he country, ie greater than is warranted, having regard to the improved means of communication.” The suggestion of economy is in the line pf argument used by the Enquiher Sun several .weeks ago. Too much is expected of the co'ton crop to start with. The labor of one man is tx,ec‘.td to support half a d zen non-producers, and in some oases e ran more. The cotton ie gath ered and the product cannot be sold for enough to pay expenses—not ex penses for the making of it, but ex penses Incurred for mauy things with which tbe cotton has no con nection TuStsilei Is Wivi rnmtst. 11 these days, wbeu the people’s money goes for appropriations In a thousand different ways, tbe follow ing from tlie Iudlanapnlls News is not very ill-timed: “And our popular government ie shout as much, or g-tting to be, of a parental government as auy mon archy of Europe. We begin by giv ing their servants their own way, ar,d end by depending on them for all we do or get. We want to m-.ke our own clothes and we ask the gov ernment to help us with a tar fl on o her people’s -goods. We want to build railroads and we ask tbe gov ernment fir the means to do it We want safe and cheap telegraphic communication all over the country and we ask the government to make it or buy it for ns What is the distance between euch measures as thin and tbe policy of Gjrmnny that buys up all the railroads, or of Fiaoce that gives employment on public works to idle workmen. A F e :uhmau never dreams that a bad raod in bis neigh borhood, or an unsafe bridge, is to be repaired by himself. He looks to the government for it. Ho cool.l do all that is needed in two hours, but he waits two months for the government. O r national gov ernment has not got that far -dong in its parental rela'-ion yet, but it is going that way. And it has got pretty well ahead, too, when it is talking of giving land at. d money to poor Immigrants to enable them to make a better s art in life than they can hope to make by their own ef forts, and thinks it by no means un likely that it will have to help sup port a half million or more of citi- z ns who aie well able to support themselves, and don’t pretend that they need help. F ;r centralization the despotism ol Bus. ia ie not much stronger than the democracy of America. I dots not yet reach out to eo many objects of care or admin istration, but it is steadily increasing them. Tbe people of O do, who are petitioning congress to abolish the presidency and replaoe it with an 'xecutive committee, base their ar gument on the enormous pi wer of the office. They say it is hardly less masterful, or may be made eo, than any monarchy, and foolish as tbe movement is, it ie re illy a sort of re action against the tendency of the times to make the government mas ter and 1 w ’erinstead of servant.” IEDOTAR TRADE YV'V MARK* rrwry OUGH BURE Absolutely Free from Opiates, Emetics and Poison.
