When the import of foreign goods Into the United States exceed a hun dred million dollars In a single mouth, as was the caw in April of this year, it is time to call a halt. We find no record of such heavy re ceipts of foreign goods In any mouth of this decade, since 1890, the largest previous total bting (81,275,106 in April, 1891 just $20,000,000 h than now. But this lu no measure makes a fair comparison ef the real meaning of such imports. In 1891, in 1892 and In the early months or 1893 we were highly prosperous be cause our people wre well employed. They were earning good wages autl had money to spend for foreign lux uries ovi-r and above their require ments or ueceanities wtik'h the Mc- Kin lev Drotectlve tariff enabled us to . produce at home in our factories, hy our people, and for our people. But now things are different. I be deadly blight of the democratic partyt's free trade polciy still hang over us. Hundred of thousands of our people are still idle; and the wages of those who are fortunate enough to be at work are below their earnings In 1891, in 1892 and in the early months of 1893. It Is now hard work for the raa-sses of American citizens to furnish even the necealties of life for themselves and their families. They have not the means wherewith to buy any foreign luxuries. - And the bulk of the foreign goods that are now en terlog this country, at the rate of a hundred million dollars a month, are not luxuries, but goods that, under the policy of protection, would for the most part be prevented from own ueople at our own mills The 120,000,000 more foreign goods Imported last month, April, over and above the value imported iu April, 1891; the $40,000,000 imported more than in April 1896, rueaus what? It means $20,000,000 more work taken from our people than they had when they were busy, and $40,000,000 more taken from them when idle. It means even more than this if we consider the delivery and the sale of the goods, with their incidents! charges to the credit of labor. As compared with April in 1894, it means that we are importing foreign goods at the rate of $1,600,000 a day for every working and business day in the month; and it means that American wage earners are losing upward oi a million dollars during each and every day's delay in the en actment of the Dingley tsrifJ for pro tection.

California, in their recent experience with mutineers, who to the number of ecventy revolted against working in the jute mill, tore up the cells and made all the trouble they could, found an effec tive way of subdulug the desperad. oes. They simply turned the hose on them, with a two inch stream of ice cold water, under large pressure from a reservoir In the bills, and they were soon silenced aud glad to go back to work.

A SrOKl OF qittS VICTORIA. The prominency just now being given to the history and character of this illustration personage, adds special interest to the following be lutiful incident which Mr, A. T. Story contjibutes to the "London Quiver: She was was at Ihe time but seven or eight years of age, aud her heart was set on a certain doll which she had seen in a certain shop window. She had to wait, howver, until she could save the price, six shillings, out of her pocket-monev. At last the day cam a, and the coveted doll was paid for and received. The story preceeda as follow; "And now, with the precious treasure on her arm, the lady bade the shopkeeper good-afternoon, and was about to step from the door when a poor, miserable lookiug ob ject oi a man met her eye. He was standing but a couple of feet away, aud seemed as though he were going to i?ak to her, attracted, doubtless, by the Innocent kindliness of her expression, aud tbe tenderness of her blue ryes. But though his lips moved, uo sound came from them. "He stood aside to let her asa mute agonised appeal in hi sunken cheeks and hi qulvMlng cblo. " 'Did you wiiib to tpetlc to mer her! step. "Encouraged by her winning voice. tha poor tramp for such he was said in a trembling accent: " I am very hungry. I would not ask for help if 1 were not ready to sink with hunger.' MHe looked famine from UH eyes. M 'I am so sorry; I Lav no money or else' "ills lips" I reiii bled 'forth a h unible 'Thank you, lady, then be abufflled w& li.e butigei luipefsuuaU. - " 'Jtayl' murmured the little own er of tbe new doll. There was a quiver In her childish voice and a auuiaiurw in' ber eyes -as turn sooka. 'Wait a oiomeut, please.' She stepped back luto the shop, approached the lady behind tbe counter, aud said: " 'Oh, please, do you mind taking the doll back and keeping It for a few days longer?' 'Certainly I will' replied the shopkeeper; 'and you wish me to re turn the money?' " 'Yes; if you please.' "This was done, and the little lady hurrying out of the shop, placed the whole of the money In the hands of the starving man "He was like one thunder-struck. Never bad bounty rained upon hint lu such prolusion before. . . . "Tbe object of her bounty mur mured in a low toue, though loud enough to reach her ear : " 'If the Almighty made you queen, it would not be more than your goodness deserve--!' "Then he hobbled away to satisfy his hunger." TilE PLATFORM. Tha bimetalists of the state held a state convention at Albany on the 2d Inst. It was not numerously at tended l hough thero was a quorum present. ine name adopted was "Union Party." Not much slgnifl cance in the name save loaves and fishes, but the platform Is more of a populist document than anything fixed up in 1896 for vottrs to stai d upon. It is la-low. Republicans will recognise what they always charged to be the ground work of tl biuietalist party. We demand the free and unlimit ed coinage of gold and sllvsr at the ratio of 16 to 1. IndeiK-ndent of the action of any other nation. That the government shall issue all money without the Intervention of banks and in quantity adequate for the needs of the iieople: that all money Issued by the government, whether gold sliver or paper, shall be legal tender for all debts public ot private. That no contract or law shall dis criminate against any kind of money Issued by the government. We are opposed to the Issue of United States Interest bearing bonds in time of peace. We demand the redemption of Oregou from rings, commissions and corrupt methods and demand honest elections and election laws, including a stringent registration law. We demand that the people shall have a veto power over all legislati e enactments by the use of tba referen dum. We demand the election of all officers by the direct vote of the peo ple. We favor and advise that all nom. (nations for municipal and county officers, Including members of the legislature, shall be by primary elec tions. We recommend that this party shall be known as the Union Party and we invite all the reform forces of thestate to unite with us in focal is Ing these principles by a united effort aad we pledge ourselves to unite with reform forces In carrying out this bond of union. "Retaliation," a against the tariff law of another nation, might be a good thing II it could stop there. But there is such a thicg as retalia tion Those foreign countries which are talking about retaliating against our tariff law will think several times before they deliberately cut off their markets with the United State which they now have. For instance: Tbe Argentine Republic, which is talking so loudly about retaliation, will discover, when it eomes to look Into the case, that It sold us last year twice as much of the productions of its people as it bought from Ihe United Slates, Austria-Hungary sold ns three times as much as her people bought from the United Slates, and Jspan sold to this country more than three times as much as our own people sold in her markets. When the authorities of these countries re Cognise tbe fact that they will, by retaliation, lose a market two or thre times as valuable as the one which they propose to take away from the United States, Ihey will abandon the idea.

Of all tha com meat Ind need by Senator Hoar's recant deftonaa af tha United States aenafa aotw is mora striking than that by Dr. John Clark Rid pah tba bUtoriaa aad adltor oil Tha Arena. Ha aawarts that as a mat ter of fact contrary to tha lataaidoo of tha constitution tha senate and bouse of today hava changed places; that tha boose has lost Its re preset) tativ character 'wKlta tba "a nale, hot "y i" completely subject to tha abaolattaiD cf fart 7 asacblsc to isSzg u ttc representative body of tha people. Dr. Rldpath'a view Is stated in Tba Arena for May, from which we quotes-.- ' - "After the civil war, there began to be In America a great corporate Ufa. Thia corporate life was not for seen and was not provided for la the original plan of our government The people were provided for, the states were provided for, public inter est and local concerns were provided for, but the great tact of corporation as a modifying force In the Ufa of tha American nation was sot provided for and was not anticipated "But tha corporation came. It In truded Itself mora and more, in tba seventies and tha eighties, and la tba nineties it has become almost tba dominant fact In tha Ufa of tha Unit ed States. Man as a ciflaen, aa an Individual, Is engaged In a struggle which appears to be a life and death conflict with corporation. There I not a man in America who has tbe prescience to discover which of tba combatants will ultimately be victor ious, patriots hope and believe that the people will win. "We do not here enter into a dis cussion of the contest of tha people with the orgsoio powers. Wa mere ly refer to It as one of tha bottom causes of the reversed relations of tha senate and' the houe of representa tives. It la organic power in its par- tixan aspect which has converted tha house of representatives Into a ma chine sublect to the will of the partv, and It Is organic power la Its com merclal form which has alarmed tha senate into the sudden assertion of Itself as the representative body aad voice of tha people I am aware that this Is stating tha question In a man ner diametrically opposed to common assertion and belief; but the truth is tha truth, and popular tradition, broadly promulgated and loudly pro claimed by a press which represents nothing but tha Incorporated Inter ests of tbe country, will hava to take care of Itself. Party and corporation then, ara the two facts which have thecoma un expectedly dominant In the United States. Of these two, party is tha worse despotthe mora dangerous foe. The party machine baa bean not only Invented and constructed, but perfected. More than any other contrivance of tba age, the party machine is In order and operation. Organisation was never more effect ive In anything than In this. In Great Britain they say that parll- ment rules, and the Queen reigns. In America tha party both rules and relgus. Certainly there was a parti san division from the early years of the' republic, but it is only within recent times that the party has be come automatic, seir-eiisting, eeir aupporting.and eternal. Formerly it was a means unto an and, now it is the end to which all things else ara tha means. "The political party, when In un ion with corporate power, Is supreme In America. When tha two act to gether for s common end, axperienc shows that nothing can withstand them. When they do not act to getherwhen one acts as a check upon tha other tha people have still a measure of power and spontaneous rtsrht. Oornorata power offers Itself s an slly of the party; of either party. It lends itself to tha party for its own good. It is tor sala to tha highest bidder, and generally commands sa eitraordinary price. Ws must note, however, that while corporate pow er Is a unit, the partisan contrivance is divided Into two. Two parties compete liir the assistance of the cor poration. Tbey bid against each other; tbey contend valliantly for tha favor of the corporation damsel. "These, then, are tha force that play upon both congress and people. Congress is the special prey of two goblins, corporate power and party despotism, Tba party has en trenched itself in tha house of repre sentatives, while corporate power finds its greatest opportunity and In ducement in tha senate. Partisan ship more and more has gained tba ascendency over tha represenUliva body, and corporate influence has at tended its sway mora and more in tha senate. Of tba two tyrannies, tha party despotism Is far mora absolute and destructive than that of tha cor poration. It has bean far mora fa M in its ravagea. Tba corporation Is at least raliooaL Its motives ara mo tives that may be appreciated by bumao beings and may be axpreaaad la a form that appeala to tha under standing, if not to the haart. If tba ivruoratkio is inhuman it is at Utaflctual kid reasonable. Party despotism on tba other band Is da- TuLXw tfoiit iawauA ttoei 2..niiTMtjT.
