The whole pelople are in favor of a reduction of the tariff. They recog ni*e it a a an abeolnte necessity for the salvation of the country. To go on collecting annually $100,000,000 more in tax than is necessary must impoverish the masses of the people in • few years. If the Republican party was injpower today they would reduce the tariff. They only oppose such* WH now as a party policy. The Journal wants to know whether Atlanta is a etty or a side¬ track.

Alter the 1st of July has witnessed tho completion of the Central railroad system to Chattanooga via Griffin, Carrollton and Rome, Atlanta will be a way station on a side track. Tho demoralized condition of the Republican party in Virginia renders U easy for the Democrats to carry the State this year. The awful nightmare of Mahoneism being thus lifted from the Democratic soul, may we not indulge a oboering hope that our friends in the Old Dominion will make their campaign on Democratic grounds and in harmony with tho national platform and candidate? It is not needful to preach Republican doctrines in order to carry Virginia for Cleveland, The apoplectic stroke received by (len.

The celebration of tho I’rcsbytai an Centennial at Philadelphia lacked nothing of impressiveness cither from a religions or a patriotic stand point.

EL “ * The Ursnd Army Party Man. The executive committee of the Grand Army of the Republic of Brooklyn, New York, met Saturday evening, to arrange for the eeremon iee on decoration day. It was an nonneed that President Cleveland j and bis cabinet bud ben invited to at tend, aud review the parade- This brought Col. William H. Jouc> to bis feet. Ho desired to know why pol itics had been introduced into the Grand Army of the Republic. Anoth er member replied that politics had not been introduced except as Col . Jones had dragged them in. Col. Jones said be wanted no candidates for office to be iuvited to attend the peremonies. But be had forgotten, evidently, that Chauncey M. Lhpew had been invited to be chairman of of the memorial services in the even ing, and had accepted, and Mr. De pew is a candidate for tho noniina tion of president. Col. Jones wanted to talk about the invitation to the president, and be got in about ten minutes of time in hie remarks. Sev eral members appealed to him to de sist, but he was in earnest, and droveabead.lt was the president of the United States that was invit ed, not a candidate nor \ partisan— the same as governors, and boards of aldermen and mayors of cities are invited on such occasions, without re gard to tbeir politicai opinions: and to oppose invitations to persons of high official positions, on account of their politics, was merely to drag pol itics into the organization. Tne meet ing was adjourned without further notice of Colonel Jones attempt to raise a political breeze. — | Hartford Times. The obstacle to Blaine’s r.omina tion seems to be the growing op position to him in the West; but there is a probability this feeling may not have such control of the elected delegates as it has of the press of that section and of the mass of the people. Aside from this possibility, however, tho anti-Blaine feeling iu the Republican party of the West is becoming stronger every clay, and is now so pronounced that wo should not be at all surprised if the motion to make his nomination unanimous should meet a pretty loud “no” from the delegations of Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and Minnesota. When the “Blaine movement” from the East reaches Chicago, it will meet a remarkably cold wave. SWertpii'd Owt Iron Coiu. “Ding it!’’ ejaculated a gentleman . had dropped a twenty cent piece on h toot while allowing it to a reporter tho other day. “That’s enough to make a Baint swear!” And he sat down upon a chair and proceeded to nurse the unfor¬ tunate pedal. The gentleman was ti well known cola collector, and tho twenty cent piece was an old and rare specimen of the hard cash used in ,Sweden years ago. It was a piece of cast iron about six inches square and a half an inch thick, and boro a number of strange figures and hiero¬ glyphics. aljoiyt as easily transferable to paper :is the diagram of a western bliz¬ zard. “Thia piece,” said the numismatist, “is, or rather was, when in use, equal to about twenty cents of our money, and if you wanted to borrow $5 from a Swede you would have l>ecn obliged to send your horse and wagon, or at least a wheelbarrow, after twenty-five of them. A man in Sweden, when such hard cash was in vogue, would never he obliged to fumble in his vest pocket with a heavy pair of gloves in cold weather for suf¬ ficient change, and Swedish legislators of any party might have been justified seventy-five years ago in advocating the rag baby.—New York Evening Sun. st. Petersburg** l ire Towers. Conspicuous about the city are pcculial looking towers, rising far above the roofs of tho houses, and crowned with tlag- itatls, to which tackle is attached. These are the fire towers, ancient institutions still retained as lookouts for watchmen, who, when a tire alarm is given, run up a ml hall in daylight, a red lantern at night, with a system of signals by which it may lx- known where tho danger exists. It is a clumsy and inefficient way of operating a tiro department, and is about tho only feature of the administrative system in which the Russians hhve not introduced modern improvements. They have electric lights and telephones, but their system of tiro alarm has boon used since the time of I’eter the Great.—Will¬ iam Eliioy Curtis in Chicago News.
