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 ... t,. 1 -.. The object ..as a a as. ,n lnl rJ ' n1 " " P- rear to the fanners ard worklngmen that the democrats In opposing th Edmunds resolution are opposing the consideration ol their Interests. Mr Harrison has signed the meat in spection bid, thus giving himself greater power In a commercial sense, than Is po etscd by any European sovereign, with the possible exception of the Cxarof Rus sia. There I a rumor that the River and Harbor bill, which Is now In conference, I to go over until after the electlons.tn order to keep down the total amount of appro priations made by the present congress Vail street pressure has made Secretary Wlndom laaue a call for $20,000,000 more 44 per cent bonds which will mature In September 1S91. He offer to pay par and accrued Interest to date of maturitr. Senator Morgan hat presented to the senate a resolution adopted by a mast- meeting of colored men at Birmingham, Alabama, against the passage of the Force bill. This added to the fact that a meeting f negroes at Philadelphia adopted a res olution declarlug tne passage of the Force bill tu be Impolitic shows that the negroes are not hankering after the "protection" which the republican In congress are so anxious to give them. To-day Is 'labor day" and it It being generally observed by the labor organiza tions of the city. They want congress to make It a rational holiday. The preliminary farce to depriving an other democrat of hit teat Breckinridge, of Arkansas It going on In the House to day. It it hoped lhat hi constituent will tee to It that he come Lack to the next House with such a big majotity that even a republican election committee wi.l not dare to question hi right to. rcpicsent his people Represen'atlve Cannon, whore vulgarity precipitated the rumpus which ended la a slugging match on the floor of the House last week, has thereby so endeared himself to Speaker Reed that he ha been asked togoupjto Maine and make tome tpeeche in hl district. It it to be hoped that he will not usu the tame language he did Inthe House A IIEAKTLKSTASK. The Qiegonian worries, in a half hearted way, through a quarter column article 10 explain the great republican loss in (he republican vote of Vermont, It says tbat "the republican ma j'jrity for governor in 1870 w 21,309; in 1874 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 paign of education, has been reduced from 29 000 in round number to 10,000 in round Humbert. The Orefonian attributes this fal ling oft to factional disturbances in that state over me choice ol candidate. We have co desire to deprive it of this crumb of comfort but must be permitted to tay, aside, that will have a never ending job explaining lb election that will take place in November. 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 Uriel' VAT1.SU, Editor 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 tiurr.t in the assertion. We do not refer to temporary or partial relief of rheumatism; but to absolute cures, The idea of hot baths and especially mud baths ca-ne from Indian. We have lhat much f.om the natives which wc have followed with tome decree of relief, Wherein is the growth ia materia medica as applied in a remedial sense in cascv of rheu- mitum. Indians may claim that they have suggested remedies in other line. la surgery however the Indian is distanced. It would be too much perhaps for Esculapiu to answer this inquiry. 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.
