Senator Edmunds ha exposed the cloven
republican foot by bis resolution for a con
gressional recess, Instead of adjournment,
rom September ty.to November 10. I lav
ing by various method cuccecdcd In get
ting a date set for the disposal cf tiie tariff
bill the most unjust financial measure of
the age the republican now propose that
congress thai! meet again after the con
gressional elections in order that It may
proceed to do what it docs not daie to do
before those elections. This action of Mr
Edmunds wa taken because Mr Harrison
refused to assume the responsibility of rail
Ing an extra session for the sole purpose
of enacting ullous political laws and mak
ing unnecessary appropriations.
First and foremost, If the republicans are
allowed to carry out their programinend
they will not, unless the united legitimate
efforts of the democrats shall fait to pre
vent If, will come the Force blll.upon which
the republican are already banking to
carry the presidential election of '91 their
leader expect to lose the next House; but
are raising a large fund to try aid save
themselves from defeat by the aid of the
elector Ul votes of (our southern states
which they calculate can be carried with
all the election machinery In ihc hands of
unscrupulous federal agents.
Next will come the congressional and
electorial college apportionment under the
new census, which Is to be manipulated In
the Interests of the republican party. If
only the question of tight and precedent
were considered this apportionment would
be left for the Fifty-second congress to
deal w Ith so It has been since the founda
tion of our government ibut the republi
can party ha never been in the habit of
letting little things like right and precedent
stand In It way, and It Is too late to ex
pect it to reform now.
Incidentally It Is proposed that a large
number of bills carrying large appropria
tion which the shrewd leader of tne
party temporal ly side-traced early Jn the
present sestion are to he tai'roadr.1 through
and in order to carry this programme ou
ucccfifully a quorum of republican tcna
alors have, according to Senator Fry, who
ought to be good republican authority,
agreed to scopt a gag rule for the senate
similar to the one .with which Speaker
Reed has bound ih house hand and foot.
Another i.ice little scheme In connection
with this recess busineis Is, that the pre
nse I to be made that the measure In
which the Farmer Alliance and the Labor
organization are Interested, similar to the
compound lard bill, the amendments to
the eight hour law, and to the alien con
tract law already passed by the House
cannot be acted upon unless those extra

bill tu be Impolitic shows that the negroes
are not hankering after the "protection"

20,325; in 1878, 20,065; in 1882, 21,372; in
1886, 20,522." It omitted to tell what the
majotity was two year ago when the "Green
Mountain sheep" voted to blindly, tor its
information we will say that Dillingham' ma
jority two years ago wa 28,995. So that the
republican majority, after the shetp" got
their eye opened by the process of the cam

HEADY FOB EECIPUOCITY.
A correspondent writing from Rio de Janeiro
tell the American people that the Brazilians
are sensible of apparent overtures made by this
country and that the gieat interests of Brazil
ian trade, long monopolized by European mon
archies.are ready to be poured into the Ameri
can lap if our business men will only jrsake a
study of Brazilian wants and how to supply
tbem and if our government will take down the
customs bars on that tide. In other words
Brazil is ready for reciprocal trade. But the
party in pother will not be moved by any such
fact, for it fought the presidential campaign
on the molto that the home market is good
1 enough for Americans, The administration
cannot adopt a policy of reciprocity without
confessing that its "protective" policy is
fiawsting lie, whieh it is.
DUTIEH AND WaOEH
The National Drmixtat ha at varlou
time presented considerable evidence to
show .
1. That on account of the superiority of
American labor and the greater use of
machinery In this coun'ry the actual cost
of labor to the employer wa oftentimes
lest In this country, than In Europe; and
2. Tl at when it happened that the cost
of American labor wa the greater, the
duty which pretended to be an offset to the
difference between foreign and domestic
wages wa very much more than that dlf-fcienc-,
and frequently wa several timet
as much a the whole amount of American
wages, ,
Opportunely enough, just a the senate
reached the Item of iron ore In the tariff
b'll, Colonel Wright, commissioner of the
Bureau of Labor Statistic, transmitted to
congress a preliminary report on the cost
of producing lime stone, bituminous coal,
Iron ore, pig iron, steel Ingot and steel
rails In different part ol the United Slab-
and in England and the continent of Eu
rope. Thif report furnishes the most con.
elusive evidence of the Injustice of the
existing and proposed tariff rate.
The average value of the labor ir one
net ton of bituminous coal in 126 mine in
In the United State, inludlng not simply
the wage of the miner, but all mine la
borers, Is 89.7 cent. The average cost In
6ve Canada mine I 93 cent; in elgn
mine on the continent of Europe, 78.7
cents, and In eight mine ij Great Britain,
75 y cent. The labor In a ton of toft coal(
then, cost 13.8 cent more than it doc in
Great Britain, but on the pretense that it
I a great deal more than that ' we levy a
duty of 75 cent a ton on coal, which I more
than the whole earnings of the mlners,and
nearly at much all the labor value In a
ton of coal.
Ibe average value of labor In one ton
of iron ore, at 62 Amcilcan mine It
(, and at 18 European mine it I 82 a
cents. The labor coat of one ton of ore.then
! 27.4 renin more In thlt country titan In
Europe. But the mine owner have polit
ical influence enough to keep a duty of 7$
cents a ton on ore.
The average value of labor in one tonot
pig Iron at 70 fcinace In the northtrn
pattofthe United State U $1.57; at 26
furnaces in the southern part ol the United
States it Is $1,527; at six furnaces on the
continent of Europe It Is 69 7 cent, and a.
eight furnace In Great Britain It U 68.3
cent. The difference between the co
of labor al northern furnance and at fur
naces on the continent of Europe is 86.3
cents, but a a pretended offset to this we
maintain a duly of $6.72 per ton on ore.
Averaging seven furnace In this coun
try, eight on the continent of Europe and
tour In Great Britain, the labor coat In one.
of steel Ingots Is $1884 in this country
$1,125 In Great Britain and 94.6 cent on
the continent of Europe. The difference
in the cost of tabor In every ttn of steel
ingot between thlt country and the con
tinent of Europe Is 93.8 cents. Out duty
' 45 Pr centreing on Ingot worth clght
lengths of a cent a pound, the grade most
Imported last year, $7. 2b per net ton.
The average wages In one ton of steel
rails in two American mills Is $1461; in
seven European mills, $2,637 aud in two
English mill, $ 1.95s, so that the labor In
the rolling mill cost let per ton oi pro
duct In the United State than abroad.
But Senator Edmund lasts'. that the
labor in the pig Iron, the Ingots, the ore,
coal and limestone that go to make the
rail shall be Included. We are not quite
sure that this demand should be complied
with jules Senator EJ nundi, it wl ding to
dd together all the duties on the elements
lhat enter Into a ton of rail. If he will
add together the dutie on the limestone
and ore and pig metal and coal and Ingots
he will rind that the dutie on a ton of rail
calculated in thlt way amount to over $30.
When we are called upon to fix a duty on
steel rails, and the rait maker urge a high
rate on the ground ot the wage he pa vs. It
W enough to fix a rate that will cover those
wage. National Democrat

May I ask without speaking disparagingly
of the medical profession wby it I that with
all the skill of the physician be ha never yet
cured rheumatism? This is true tHe wavkj
over. We wi'.l include all the preparatory not

temporary or partial relief of rheumatism; but
to absolute cures, The idea of hot baths and
especially mud baths ca-ne from Indian. We

KIIIUMATIC.
NEUUAET,
Editors Democrat:
It it not a mistake for th democratic party
to use the words "free trade" when urging
that doctrine where there can be no detriment
in doing to to our manufacturing or commer
cial (interest. Should not these plain out
spoken democrat show a little weak and eva
live culture and shout with a loud voice. "Wc
arc a party of reciprocity," We might apolo
gise to Mr Blaine for using the grand old saxon
word ''free trade and tailors rights" which
gave us our second victory on land and sea
and adopt his interpretation of the demxratic
doctrine, It reminds u of the Itdian play in
the circus where he was promised a bottle of
whisky for a graad display of indian skill, and
whe it wa presented to him he indignantly
refused it. On beinc jold it was a quart of
whisky, he said it was not cnoueh, he wanted
two pints. Mr Blaine will not take the quart
of whisky.he want two pin., which are more
reciprocal and make a greater number of
bottle among the "most favored natives,"
One Quart.
(Just Deceived for tire fall and vriaser.
To tell the truth, the stock of suitings
in the tailoring department of L
Blain, ia a large one, and entirely new.
It has just been received for the fall and
winter trade, the remananta of light
weights having been placed aside. The
new etock embraces a variety of designs
in imported and domestic goods that is a
credit to the city. The present styles
are very attractive, and a big field ia of
f erred for a man to dress well, which is
what the progressive citlaen does. Mr
E A Schifller, who is superintendent of
this department, is an expert at the
business, and a suit made under him is
assurred a perfect fit, which ia always
guaranteed. The progress being made
in tailoring ia well exemplified in the
manner in which Mr Schifller conducts
