fffrak it: the -.protect: v* system.;
liven the coal and iron schedule*
were'fifty per te.nt. lower than in
the McKinley bill. He admitted
that the Sugar Trust was repotted
to have laid in $109,000,000 worth
of ra gar, the price of which
would be advanced by the passage
of this bill; but the Trust preferred
the McKinley Act to the proposed
law, and tariff reformers would not
stop the fight until the Trust's
power to tax the people was en
tirely removed. Mr. Bourke
Cockran made .an'oratorical appeal
to the house not to desert its prin¬
ciples by surrendering to a petty
combination of senators and Crisp
replied that they were the deserters
who were ready to vote with the
republicans to defeat any reduction
whatever in the tariff. When the
vote was taken 174 democrats and
7 populists supported the senate
bill, while 92 republicans and 13
democrats voted against it. The
bills placing coal, iron ore, barbed
wire and sugar on the free list were
passed—free sugar being supported
by ail but two republicans and by
all but nine democrats. %
Two years ago the democratic
party declared th^t—ilfepublican
protection is a fraijd and a robbery” tariff
and asked power to enact «
framed ‘‘for revenue only.” The
people gave it [lower : what has it
done? It has repudiated a bill
which provided for free raw ma¬
terial, ad valorem duties, and a
lower tariff generally, It has
passed a bill whief^differs hi detail
not «i principal, from the one they
denounced. The senate has yielded
to an insignificant minority of per¬
sonally if not picuniarily interested
senators. The house has yielded
tolhe senate. The result is a dem
ocratic protective tariff in place of
% republican protective tariff. Not¬
ts this all. It is a tariff conceived
in corruption and passed i#"dis
hofior. There are three fatal objec¬
tions to the senate bill. It violates
the plighted word of the dcmocratio
party. It does this to enhance the
profits of wealthy corporations.
And there is good reason to believe
that this-result has bceii_4>urchascd
and paid for— if not directly, then
indirectly. For the feeble pretense
at investigation and the report of
“not proven” have rather confirmed
than dispelled the public suspicion
of corruption. Such protection is
both a ‘‘fraud’’ and “robbery.”
The party dishonor is not lessened
by the promise to pass in- the house
separate bills fnaking sugar, coal
and iron free—for the purpose of
“putting the senate ytaholc.” lo easily A
triple dishonor is not
atoned", nor will public indignation
be so easily appeased. Nor is it
Ved by saying that this is “the
‘
the party can do.” In that
fact lies the dishonor of the party.
The issue to.be met in the fall elec¬
tions is not economical, but moral.

honorable fulfillment of party
pledges, and denounce* as fraudu

Tliegieateet eveut that ever occurred
In the history of Japan was the revolu¬
tion of 1808. That year indeed might
bo called the Magna Chart* year of the
empire of the islands of the oriental
eeas. It abolished feudalism and placed
Japan on the list of civilized nations.
Since then no country oast or west has
progressed so rapidly.. She is called
the .England of the orient, a name
that! fits her very well. Like England,
jjapau baa adopted the policy of extend¬
ing her territory through colonization.
In Hawaii there are now 20,000 Japa¬
nese. There may bo good and sufficient
reasons which we so far away cannot
understand, but at this distance it cer¬
tainly seems that the republic of Hawaii
did an unjust 'and ungracious thing
when she refused citizenship to the Jap¬
anese within her borders.'
Strict justice should be doDe to all
nationalities, bufthe fact must not be
forgotten ahiong us that the Japanese
are as different from the Chiueso as the
shah of Persia is from the queen of Eng¬
land. Tbo course of tho Japanese since
the beginning of tho present war has
been such as to call out the unqualified
admiration certainly of all Americans.
An instanoe of this is found in the cir¬
cular of instructions issued by their
consul at Portland, Or., to the mikado’s
subjects on. tbo Pacific coast Here is
part of it:
You residing in this country are requested to
Conduct yourselves in a Way "ESthUtiit the dig.
tatty of the subjects of Japan living in a neutral
country. and
Those of you wbo belong to reserves
bars been notified should at onto return to
Japan and report for duty. Yon are forbiddan
to organise military companies, purchase the laws am¬
munition or act In any way contrary to You
which are binding lu nentral oountrios.
pro requested to bo very careful and uptight
in your dally Intercourse with the Chinese res¬
idents of this country, thus upholding the
laws of public peace and good order.
A Brave and Busy Life.
When tho Nicaragua canal shall be a
fixed fact, and its history comes to be
written, no one man will figure in the
■tory so prominently as the lute General
Daniel Macanlay. To no one man will
ita success be so greatly owing as to
him. At least so far.baek as 1877—per¬
haps longer—it was his glorions day
dream. That he died at Managua, tbo
capital of Nicaragua^ of tho fever of the
country—that, too, before ho had seen
the realization of his fond hope—is one
of the strange turns fate serves mortals.
General Daniel Macnulny was a
brother of the famous actor, Barney
Macaulay, and resembled him strongly.
Ho lived in Indianapolis many years,
and, though most persons called him
General Dan Macaulay, to the people of
Indianapolis ho will always be known
as Mayor Dan Macaulay. He was an
brave as he was great hearted, and ho
and his brigade* did some desperate
fighting during the civil war.
In the winter of 1878 too was bo
low congress trying to induce it to
take np tho Nicaragua canal and fur¬
ther the enterprise at least by its ap¬
proval and an official charter. He has
worked for its interests ever since,
through good and ill. At tho timo cf
his death he was tho resident represent¬
ative of tho Canal company in Nica¬
ragua. The saddest part of it all is that
ho did not live to $ee the caual com¬
pleted.
