Washington, D. C, Jan. 30th, 1888. Tha DcmecraU of the Ways aad Mean committee arc giving themselves earneitly to the arduous tak of framing a new tariff bill, which they hope will prove acceptable ta their associates in the House and to the party generally. Those Republicans who constitute tho minority measure until the work is complete and ready for final ac tion. The majority are well satisfied with the progress they have made, aad feel sanguine of the ultimate success of their labors, though that most desirable result cannot be reached without liberal conces sions to conflicting opinions. It Is propos ed to have a general revision and readjust ment of the tariff, and the salient features of the bill will be similar to that presented on a former occasion by Mr. Hewitt. The new bill will make a reduction of so per cent on suar and also large reductions In the taxes on fruit, brandies and tobacco, and will place salt, wool, lumber, and other raw materials and the free list. The bill is practically agreed upon now, and it Is probable that It will be brought to the con sideration of the House within the next three weeks. Then will begin the great battle for tariff reform, which will he the key note of the Democratic Presidential campaign. Mr. Randall threw himself in the breach the other day, and by resorting to dilatory tactics, prevented the appointment of a day for the introduction of bills for the erection of Government buildings. This was a patriotic service on the part of the distinguished Pennsylvania statesman, as there appears to be a general sentiment throughout the country to secure such ap propriations. If these raids upon the treasury were not checked, there would soon be no surplus to puxxle the mighty intellects of our national legislators. Responsive to the popular demand there appears to be a pretty general sentiment in the House In favor in authorising the i tie of about twenty million dollars In fractional currency. There seem to be a ahortage of small bills, as the Bureau of Engraving aad Printing U pushing work 00 the $a and $5 silver certificates, a the present demand ta greatly In exceaa of the supply, but it is believed that in a few days the stock will be sufficient large. The Civil Service Commissioners have been invited to appear before a House committee and to express their views on several bills that are now under consider ation. Some charges are likely, for it is aa open secret that the committee on civil service, more particularly the chairman, are opposed to the present law. One Republican member, Representa tive White, of Indiana, is to he a upon the motion of hi cornDggfier, x Coog ressnaa4Jysrf Although It is be- nd isst&tion that White received a clear of the vote cast, he will be ex pelled, because it is shown that he has not been lrgally naturalised, being a native of Scotland. Mr. Lowry doe not secure the seat, as, it is the decision of the committee on election that there was no election, hence a vacancy will he declared ta exist. The next contest to be acted upon le that of Worthing ton. Democrat, sgslnst Post, Republican, of Illinois. The elec tion was very close only twenty-nine majority being claimed and it is probable that another Republican will be unseated as the Democrat claims that he has a right ful majority of ten votes. The Senate Committee on pensions have unanimously approved Senator Mander soa's "Graad Army" bill, which has been so framed as to overcome the objections urged by President Cleveland In his dis approval of the dependent pension bill. The bill granting Mrs. Logan a $a,ooo pension, excited quite a discussion among the Senators, but it passed by a large ma jority, as did another bill increasing to the same amount the pension ot Mrs. Prank P. Ulair. THE Li A RO EST CANNON. The largest gun that has ever been mounted on a disappearing carriage, re marks Engineering, has recently under gone trial at the proof grounds of Messrs. Armstrong, Mitchell & Co., at Silloth. The gun and its carriage have been man- ufacturad at the Biswick Works for the government of Victoria for the coast of the colony. Under ordinary conditions the gun Is entirely hidden from view in a pit, and is raised into firing position by the action of compressed air working in a cyllnder,thus remaining exposed to the enemy's fire for a few seconds only. Tbe recoil of the gun Itself compresses the air, so that the weapon is in a sense automatic. By an arrangement of mirrors sighting can be accurately effected with out necessitating an exposure of the party working the gun. At the trials three proof charges of 250 pounds of prismatic powder were fired, ad afterwards several rounds with a charge of 330 pounds of brown powder for the purpose of testing the range and the accuracy of fire. The projectile weighs 50a pounds, and an initial velocity of i960 feet per second was obtained. The Elswick carriage worked smoothly and well, the gun, which weighs thirty tons and has a calibre of ten inches, being raised into firing position in from eigh teen to twenty second. A careful examination of the carriage after the completion of the tests discover ed no signs of injury or weakness. The declaration of the millionaire Minn esota mill-owner, Pillsbury, against the nomination of Mr. Blaine, has caused very earnest comment in republican cir cles, considering his zealous advocacy of Mr. Blaine in the campaign of 1884. A prominent Minnesotian in the delegation in the last election said such men as Pills bury coming out boldly for a new deal in republican leadership en the national ticket makes the carrying of the state a subject of serious consideration and no little doubt under certain condition. TBI ABOMINABLE TARIFF. s S. Moore,! n the New York Times, shows how the protected woolen good Is divided between capital and tabor. He ays ; Tha whilom slave regime fought for slavery, because It was ta them an inherit ed property. The protection regi.ne fight for tbe continuation of a high tariff, be cause through class legislation and trick ery tha whole population of over 60,000, 000 have been enslaved as tax-payers to a comparative handful of protectionists. The most barefaced of all lies is the as sert ian that aa outrageous high protection is indispensable on account of the high wages that are paid In this country ; that In shaft, the virtuous protectionist bosses are not the gatners by protection, but simply the working classes. Now, let me show up some statistical facts, and I dare the whole congregation of the advocates of protection ta gainsay my statements of figure. First, the average protection on Import ad woolen goods is 67.39 per ceat aad was about the same figures in 1880. Now, we will see how the profit of such a protection It divided between capital and labor. From official statistics during the census year of 1880 (when lahor was paid higher than it Is now) the whole amount of woolen fab rics manufactured, exclusive of worsted goods, was $160,607,631. The cost of all material used In producing tbe above was $100,815,61 1. Now If we deduct the cost ot material from the value of product we gat a act surplus of $59,761,1 to. This surplus was thu divided : Total amount pafd for labor. , .$35330,393 avai . a , - a jH net prom to capital invested.. 33,934910 Total $5r76Mo The hands employed during the year 1886 were t Males above 13 years old .$47,978 Females above 15 year old 9.373 Children "M54 Total $86,504 These hands got, as I stated, $25,836,293 wages, which Is, on sn average, a little lass than $300 par year, and, altogether, very goad wages. Now, let u see what wages the capital made out of a protection of 67.39 per ceat. Well, thea, the tot al capital Invested, as given by the msnufac- iurer,whii h we may feel assured was not underestimated, Is givea as $95,085,564. This amount of capital earned in 1886 $32,934,818, or a trifle over 35 per cent. In other words, the average of a working man's wages was, as I have shown, fjoo per year, and $1000 Invested-ytefded a profit of $399 daring -the same period. ThU Is exactly wAlt tha fts-urc ahow. And let us croember, these figures, as to the Invited capital and value of product. given officially by manufacturers In terested. Another point which I have mode over and over again is this, namely 1 What Is tha percentage of the cost of labor to the value of the manufactured product ? We find that t He wages paid to produce $i6o- 606,731 manufactured woolen goods was $35336,393 - that is to say, every dollar's worth of finished woolen goods represent ed in cost of material and profit 84 cents and labor 16 cants ; total, St. Or, say in round numbers, 19 per cent. Now, la Heaven's name, why should there be an average protection of 67.39 per cent aa woolen good, when the total cost of labor ts aaly 19 per ceat i And, above all, why should such a stupendous falsehood be maintained that a 67 per cent protective tax Is indispensable to keep up this rate of wages ? Suppose that foreign labor only costs half, or 9tf per cent a protection of simply 10 per cent would more than equalise the cheaper labor of abroad. And yet if ane were to propose a reduction of the present average duty of 67 per ceat to 40 per cent there would be a great outcry that it is contemplated to run the working men In the woolen factories. Now, Messrs, Protectionists of woolen goods, answer these figures, If you can. Ma AOVICE TO A YOUNO MAN, And then, remember.vou hare to work. Whether you handle a pick or pen, a wheel-barrow or a set of books, digging ditches or editing a paper, ringing an auc tionbeli or writing funny things,you must work. It you look around you, you will see that the men who are most able to live the rest of their days without work are the men that work the hardest. Don't be afraid of killing yourself with work. It is beyond your power to do that Men cannot work so hard as that on the sunny side of thirty. They die sometimes but it's because they quit work at 6 p. m and don't go home until 3 a. m. It's the interval that kills. Work gives an ap petite for meals ; it lends solidity to your slumbers ; It gives the appreciation of a holiday. There are young men that do not work, but the world is not proud of them. It does not even know their names ; it simp ly speaks of them as old So-and-So's boys Nobody likes them, nobody hates them the great, busy world doesn't even know that they are there. So find out what you want to be and do, take off your coat and make adust In the world. The busier you are the less deviltry you will be apt to get into, tbe sweeter wilt be your s!eep the brighter and happier your holidays, and the better satisfied will the world be with you. Of all the tiresome creatures met Along Life's thorny way, There's ene,the plague of ev'ry set, A fact none will gainsay, Whose votce.whatever is discussed, The stage or Adam's fall, Into our hapless ears is thrust, The man who knows It all. He's met whichever way we tnrn, His place is ev'ry where, And though for peace of home we yearn Behold, he's also there, We can't his reach escape, alas t In parlor, street or hall, So as shows the looking-glass, The man who knows It all. WATEiiliOO. Editors Dcmotrut : I have waited for a readjustment of our malt communication with Albany, but have waited la vain. We have advice to be Im parted and people are ready to be instruct ed, hence I shall delay no longer. To be gin with then, I propose that we take up the question of County and State Conven tions, but to make things plain I suggest that at our primaries all delegates be In structed to adopt the viva vow, method of voting In Couaty and State Conventions. I have thought of It, and conclude that there are many evils which come from the ballot voting ta conventions. Men are brought out by this method and then defeated at the polls, because there Is crookedness charged to them, and nine times out of ten they are not to blame. But I maintain that should the viva voce plan be adopted, that the wilt of the peo ple sending the delegates would more nearly be carried out. Of course it Is usual for them In the primsries,when elect ed, to consider themselves pledged to vote for certain men for certain offices, where ss by the ballot method some will prove re creant to the trust,aad probably no ane be tha wiser. Thus, the choice of these del egates Is not carried out, a instructed by their constituents. I admit that the In cumbent and pledged duties are arduous trying, nevertheless, If they fulfill their pledge honorably using reasonable judg ment In their support of other than the one whom they were pledged to support after It became apparent that their first eh sice was not the choice of the commun ity at large, then they merit the approba tion of their constituents, but by the ballot method they arc not so placed as ta prac lcaily and unquestionably demonstrate their conscientious fulfillment of their in struction as they are by the tvtw voce meth od. Besides by th is method one cannot so readily be charged with having been bought.for delegates have the opportunity to stand up and call his man by name. Thus I think we will be enabled to place before the people just it good .and every voter in the county or state can know by what method they have their nomination. This I know for my part would greatly strength en me In their support. I would feel that they bad received their nominations hon- arably, hence I should work strenuously far their election . This I know to be tbe feeling of nearly alt men no matter what pirty. It behooves us as a party to place b;tore the people a ticket worthy of elec tion. 1 think that there is strong reasons for adeptlagthis'vtva voce method,and for my part would be pleased to have it fully discussed. The reasons which seem good to me may not so appear to other. It is for the good of the people at targe that I desire this to be discussed, and if it is not dsaue soon people wit I not have had time to think upon it and will be undecided, so tot us bear from every precinct and from every man who desires good, honest gov ernment. I feet that this thing,smatt as it seems, is prcgnsnt with much general good. There never was a time when dem ocrats had a greater responsibility restln? upon them, nor was there ever a more propitious time ttian now for them to ac quire themselves so meritoriously. It is painfully evident to republicans that their days are numbered ahoutd the democrats occupy the auspicious position judiciously presented to them by their great leader, O rover Cleveland. Thl is plainly shown by the republican Senators in their dally acts la the United States Senate. So, democrats, let us, to begin with, se cure unison in our primaries and continue harmoniously through our County and State Conventions.and doing this we will be the better prepared to secure a grand triumph In our two elections coming on rapidly. Yours in the faith of a grand success in June and November for the peo ple by the vigilance and prudence of the democratic party. Status. "Johnny," said the careworn editor to his only son, "I know you want to help your poor old father and give him an item, but I would rather you'd stay away from the pond till the ice gets thicker. You may come handy to feed the press." A Common Cold la often the beginning of serious affec tions of tbe Throat, Bronchial Tubes, and Lungs. Therefore, the importance of early and effective treatment cannot be overestimated. Ayer's Cherry Pec toral may always be relied upon for tho speedy cure of a Cold or Cough. Last January I was attacked with a severe Cold, which, by neglect and fre quent expoNures, became Worse, finally settling on my lungs. A terrible cough soon followed, accompanied by pains In the chest, from which I suffered intense ly. After trying various remedies, with out obtaining relief, I commenced taking Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, aad was Speedily Cured. T am satisfied that this remedy saved my life. Jno. Webster, Pawtucket, R. I. I contracted a severe cold, which suddenly developed into Pneumonia, presenting dangerous and obstinate symptoms. My physician ordered the use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. His in structions were followed, and the result was a rapid and permanent cure. H. E. Stimpson, Rogers Prairie, Tex. Two years ago I suffered from a severe Cold, which settled on my Lungs. I con sulted various physicians, ana took the medicines they prescribed, but received only temporary relief. A friend induced me to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After taking two bottles of this medicine I was cured. Since then I have given the Pec toral to my children, and consider it The Best Remedy for Colds, Coughs, and all Throat and Lung diseases, ever used in my family. Robert Vanderpool, Meadville, Pa. Some time ago I took a slight Cold, which, being neglected, grew worse, and settled on my Lungs. I had a hacking cough, and was very weak. Those who knew me best considered my life to be in great danger. I continued to suffer until I commenced using Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Less than one bottle of this valuable medicine cured me, and I feel that I owe the preservation of my life to its curative powers. Mrs. Ann Loekwood, Akron, New York. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is considered, here, the one groat remedy for all diseases of the throat and lungs, and is more in demand than any other medicine of its class. J.
