He further observer, "I believe It Is the sin cere wish of United America to have nothing to do with the political Intrigues or the squabbles of European nations; but, on the contrary, to exchange com modities and live in peace with all the Inhabitants of the earth, and this I am persuaded they will do, If rightfully It can be done." This was wise logic at the tlm9 it was given, 108 years ago. This country then contained but four millions of pioneer people, oppressed by debts created for the war for Independence. Would Wash ington give the Bame advice if he were now president of a rich, powerful nation of 70 millions? The population of the United States In 1703 was nearly a million less than that cf Illinois at this time, while the wealth was less than half the value of that in this state. It is true that little boats should keep near the shore, but larger ones may venture fur ther out. The people of the United States do not desire to interfere In the intrigues and squabbles Cf 'European nations. At the same time they are in a position where they need not be Imposed upon by any nation if they want to resist, or to punish Insult or aggression. While not Interfering in any European quarrels, has not the time come to notify Spain to step down and out of Cuba and to remove its carpet-baggors, swords, boots and spurs, to the Iberian peninsula? Would It not be in accordance with the spirit Of the Monroe doctrine to serve notice on Bpaln to pack up and vamoose from that Island? THB TARIFF TEST. That open confession la good for the soul does not seem to be believed by many Democrats though since the elec. Hon last year a few have tried It with encouraging results. But the New York Sun, which shines for all, shines for Itself In blurting out the truth with a fre quency rare in Democratic journals, and has grown Impatient of Democratic! shams and false pretenses about the tariff. It has too much common sense and common honesty to enjoy tho cus tomary Democratic falsehood that the disasters which followed the decision ot tho peop.e to tear up protection and adopt Democratic freo trade were du to tha Republican tariff, or the falsehood that the tariff adopted In ISiM was In any sense what the Democrats had promised, or the till more foolish falsehood that the recovery, which followed eDmocratlc defeat last year and the adjournment ot a Democratic congress was the effuc of a. 'Democratic tariff. On the contrary It recognises the force of the argument presented In the Republican platform .of Pennsylvania, and takes notice th.it the Republican In all' futuro campaign, will argue: "The country was prosperous "when the Democrats brought on "panic by proposing to smash protection "and start up a tariff for revenue only "ve blocked them . In the senate and "saved the country, and business began "to revive when a protectionist house of "representatives was elected." Then the Sun remarks: , It must be ndmltted that they will be awe to make a connected and plausible tariff story, which the Democrats, hav. Ing stuck neither to flsh, fowl, nor good rod herring, will Jure some difficulty in cluing. The Democrats made a protnc' tionlst tariff, but they are estopped from saying so by the unpleasant fact that they promised to unmnke such tariff and make one radically different. To tell the square truth, they must say that they lied to the country, and, ot course, a confession like that will never be made. The Sun might have added that the Democrats are now lying to the country both by pretending, where they have to deal with worklngmen In protected In dustrles, that their tariff Is Intelligently end consistently protective, and at the same time, when they have to deal with the free trade fanatics, by denying that they ir.ads It -protective In spots, in tin; nope to save themselves In manu facturing slates from the overwhelming defeat which came nevertheless. The Democratic tariff bears the same rela tion to genuine Prelection that a big levee, with several great gaps In It, bears to an effective defence of the ruined p'antat'ons behind It. - The Democratic organ.whlch have not the Sun's shrewdness nor Its sense of de--i-noy still imagine that they are befool ing the people by tlm claim that every rise of wastes toward the level of 1S32 Is evidence of their wisdom, whereas It Is, in j'ui-t. rViiK'iicb of liit -wisdom of the jm ;p who smashed Democracy, Its pol- icy and Us plans, by their votes In 1891. The fact that wages were put down about twenty per cent all around, In soma branches much more, and In some others less.by tho losing of works nat urally and Inevitably following the Dem ocratic success In 1892, with a free trade policy, these Journals are shameless enough to attribute to the McKinely tar iff, because it had not yet been repealed. The recovery of about half that Iofs, which talrly marches Willi tho fact that the Democrats failed to do half what thiy Intended and trlf-d to do, thctc Journals quote as proof that the Democratic policy brings better wage. And, unllkn the Sun, they imagine that the voters ar to be cheated by prettn.?s so impudently untrue. Our readers will notice an interview In this morning's Astorian which substan tiates the rumors before hinted at In thes columns that the Seattle canal scheme was a fake, pure and simple, and that all the magnificent prospects of the much heralded enterprise were purely mythical, Mr. Weston's statements, coming as they do from an unpartlsan source and from a man who (has lived and worked right in the middle of the destitution caused by the glittering bubble, are entitled to entire credence. We are not surprised at the action of the railroads In luring men from good homes to destitution In a Mrange city, but It certainly seems to us as If the newspapers of Seattle have by their persistent booming of a shaky project overstepped all bounds of decency. In the name of common human ity they ought to try to remedy the condition of affairs that has been brought about by their stupid and shameful lgnor- The first thing that will confront con gress when it assembles in jjecemoer, will be the passage of legislation to pro duce sufficient revenue to meet govern ment expenditures. The constantly In creasing deficit Is alarming. The Dem ocratic tariff bill has been In effect for a year, and has demonstrated its inade quacy to provide revenue for running the government machinery. The deficit is now nearly fourteen million dollars for the fiscal year to date, and this Is the state of things after all unusual condi tions which attend the Inauguration of a new tariff have passed and business has settled down after adjusting Itself to the new situation. The silver cash In the treasury is $511, 417,044.77. This includes dollars, subsld lury coin, and bars. It is the "cash In the treasury" under the sliver head and Is the silver that the people do not circu late except us certificates. It Is money every dollar of It. The bars are rated at their gold value In tho paper Issued, and this Is regarded by Democrats as dis crimination against sliver, and In viola tion of the Chicago Platform, which was prepared, e Mr. Whitney remarked, as a "vote getter." LET IT BE A "SHORT CAMPAIGN. Of the forty-nine members of the Re publican national) committee, twenty have thus far put themselves on record as favoring a short campaign and one as against H. One refuses to commit himself. The twenty-two others have not been heard from. Of the twenty-live Democratic committeemen who have said tlielr say thirteen are for a short cam paign, seven are against It, and five are non-committal. Thus It appears that tha Republicans are more decidedly In fa vor of the new departure (than the Democrats, but that It Is not unlikely 'that a majority of the latter will decide for a short campaign. The Democratic committeemen who want an early convention represent Col orado, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Ten nessee, 'Florida, and New Hampshire. The 'Republican ones represent Colora do, Oklahoma, -Arkansas, Florida, and Mississippi. With one exception these are not committees noted for their Indus trial activity. Therefore the evils of a protracted political contest are not as keenly felt there as In tho great com mercial and manufacturing states like New York, Massachusetts and Illinois. The people of Florida do not have much to amuse Ithem, and perhaps they would not care If a campaign were going on about all the time. Another reason per haps why the representatives of some of the Western and Southern States fa vor a long campaign is that the people do not read as many papers as they do In other sections, and that therefore more time Is needed in which to stir them up and get them to the polls. Some of the committeemen, whllo fa voring a short campaign because the business interests of tho country are so likely to be affected In tho event of a l'ong drawn out presidential contest, yet seem to be afraid that If the conventions are held In August there will not be time enough to Instruct the woters, Mr. Fessonden, the Republican member for Connecticut, says: "It Is to be borne In mind, however, that the great rosult to be attained 1b a Republican victory In 1800. In order to secure an Increase of the business pros perity which has followed the recent successes of our party. It appears to me to be rather early to decide whether a long or short campaign would best con duce to the accomplishment of that re sult. In brief. I believe It should be our policy to give the people a full oppor tunity to examine, discuss, and decide the all-Important questions that are In volved In the campaign, so that they may avoid the mistake of t8;2 and reach the conclusion, which I am sure will be arrived at by the thoughtful and Intel ligent voters of our country, that Its future and material growth will largely depend upon the success of the Repub lican party In 1896." The people began examining and dis cussing a year ago the questions which win be Involved In next year's campaign, and they will continue to examino and discuss them, with the assistance of the papers, until a year from next November. The silver question has been gone .into as thoroughly as If a presidential cam paign were In progress and the tariff question has 'been under constant dis cussion ever since the consequence ot ins i-'etnucrmiu laniL iu.icy urKRU iv i manifest themselves. That question has 1 been discussed more underftandlngly ; than for many years, because the people have a great many more facts before them than they had In 1893, when the conventions were held In June, and when, after a lon campaign, In which the peo ple were given a "full opportunity" to Inform themselves, they voted In favor of a Democratic tariff policy, which they are anxious now to get rid of. as they showed by their acts last fall. x It cannot be assumed that the. people are going suddenly to forget the great Issues of the day or banish them from their minds until presidential candidates have been nominated. They will keep on thinking them over and reading what the papers have to say about them. There will be abundant time, therefore. If the conventions ate field In AuguBt to Inform the voters concerning the epc- ial merits or the candidates, if they ned Information, and also to call their attention to the new issues of the day If any appear In tha party platforms. An for the 'work of party organization, that can bo going on quietly all the time. National, state and county com mittees can begin "working now and keep it up steadily till the close of next year. But that work can be carried on with out turmoil or uproar, and without In sisting that business men and voters generally shall be thrown Into a state of protracted nervous excitement. There Is not one valid argument to be made against a short campaign next year. That is the kind of campaign the people want and the national committees should give it to them. STRANGE SIGHTS. Witnessed by a Columbus 'Man on a Tour of Alaska. (Minneapolis Tribune.) A. V. Green, head of the great dry iroods house of Green, Joyce & Co., Col umbus, Ohio, Is a guest at the West. Mr. Green Is accompanied by, his brother, E. M. Green, .'nl together they have travelled some 2.',(;?? miles In the last few months. The gentlemen have Just returned from oj tour of Alaska, and many and wonderful are the tales they tell of that frigid part of the globe. A. W. Green chatted interestingly of his trip. ''I witnessed one of the most remarkable eights at Mulr Glacier Bay,' he said, "that ever fell to the lot ot mortal man. We were on board of the Queen, and were about In the middle of the bay, which IB about two miles wide, After surveying the great fields of Ice which are hundreds of feet high and ex. tend back to a distance of some 25,000 miles, a great mass of lco, perhaps as large as the West Hotel, broke off from the summit of a glacier and fell with a. mighty roar Into the bay. This was not particularly remarkable, but what followed was the most astonishing sight ever seen in that locality. Suddenly a huge shaft of Ice as large as our ship came out of the water and shot Into the air a distance of 200 feet, and toppled over. It was of a. deep bottle green, and the sunlight flashing on It made It a most beautiful as well as terrible object. It was soon followed by four others that rose from the bay with great rapidity, They rushed out of the water like things of life, and we were compelled to back off for safety. "The noise produced by these monu ments of Ice was terrific, and when they toppled over they rocked the ship liko an egg shell. Captain Jackson, of tho United States service, said that he had never before witnessed such phenomena." THE BEE'S WISDOM. Said a little wandering maiden To a bee with honey laden, "Bee, at all flowers you work, Yet in some does' poison lurk." "That I know my little maiden," Said the bee with Woney laden, "But the poison I forsake And the honey only take." "Cunning bee with honey laden, That is right," replied the maiden, "So will I (from all I meet. Only draw the good and sweet." Ira, D. Sankey, the evangelist singer, is now writing a history of tho gospel hymns. NOTICE.
