Ke intelligent ebserver of public events In this country nnd no real friend of itfl beat business Interesta certnluly no Doaiecrat who understands mid believes In the Democratic consll censll consll tutlenal theory of taxation will deny the unmistakable popular drift toward a rovlslen of the tariff aud te such an ad Juatment of Its details as will prevent monopolies and a treasury surplus, whlle at the eame time It will net unduly (lis turb nor derange the business Interests of the country. Even the se called f rce tradera are net for f ree trade at present, whlle the most ardent protectionists and the most Interested manufacturers admit that the present tariff, made OTcr twentv cars age. and mended and patched frequently siuce, 13 full of crudl ties and absurdities, Iniquities and Ine qualities. The exact rate of duty en cacli nrtlcle te be put en the tariff schedule, or the particular articles te be added te the free list, are mat ters of almost lnflulte detail, upon which the views of peeple arc bound te differ according te thelr lecall ties and intercsts. These are net ques tions of party politics and cannot be stated nor settled In platforms. What gross felly It Is, therefore, te make such a matter a3 the Morrison tariff bill Avhlch was net the outgrowth of any deflnlte policy except the horizontal re duction of existing rates a test of Democratic fealty l Abselute protection, or free trade, or a tariff for rovenue wPh incidental pie tectlen nre, each in themselves, dis tinct dectrine of revenue nnd taxation, which may by a national convention, net by a congressional caucus, be inade a party principle. But until that is dene It is mere midsummer madness te talk of reading Democrats out of the party simply because they differ as te the details of a duties' schedule. The fact that a majer'ty of Democratic members think one way does net bind all their colleagues te think nnd net the s'ne way ou every question. Otherwise M-ssrs. Blackburn, Dersheimer and ethers, who voted against the majority of their party nnd with the Republicans ou the naval appropriating bill, ought as reasonably be expelled fee that vote. By sush processes the organization would seen be pulled te pieces. But It is Insisted, by these who take the view that adhereuce te the " Kt-n tusky idea " en the tariff Is the Bele Btitidard of Democracy, that there Is no ether Issue upon which the party cau go bifere the country. If this were true It would be a pitiful confession, indeed 1 If nearly a nailer century's experience of Hepublh an shame3 and crimes Is te have no effect upon the popular mind the discussion of the tariff will pass ever It like a summer cloud. If the party that for all this time has tnaladrainistered the government is net, te be held responsible for that maladministratien, it will nut be driven from power by a distrust of its ability te raise and steal the revenues of the country. As n matter of party policy, there is no greuud for a difference of epini m as te whether the Democracy aheu.d adejt the "Kentucky idea," en winch they were defeated in isse, or tue "Peunsjl vauia idea, ' as expressed in the Ohie nnd Allentown platforms. Upen tie former we have a hope letne day ff t-i rying Minnesota and Iowa, with the certainty of meantime losing Ohie, IViv vlvania, New Yerk, New Jersey and Connecticut. Upen the latter we have a far mere than c. fighting chance fei every doubtful state and a positive asJiuauce of holding every Democratic B'ate.

His receut marriage was no less surprising te the wealthy widower's friends, nene of whom regarded Miss Thompieu, the comely Scotch woman who kept the millionaire s hense, as n possible successor te its late mistress. The wedding was very quiet. The pretty maid became first the wife and then the widow of ene of the richest men in Wisconsin. She new inherits all of her husband's fertune, no less than $1,000,000, as well as the splendid unfinished residenee over looking Lake Michigan. Mr. Hurt came te Milwaukee only six years nge from New Bedford, Mass. He had bjeu e b.uiker nnd broker there for quarter of a century, but wa iu peer health nnd sought a change of air.

It was, however, pest peued recently ou account of the doctor's unexpected illness. He had graduated from the medical dopartment of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania week befere last, and had moved te Manayunk te practice his profession when he was stricken down. His illness sjen became alarming, and after a few days Miss Entwistle went out te nurse him. It was seen evident that but slight hopes of his recovery wa enter tained by his physicians, who finally told htm that in tbetr opinion death was at baud. He nt once expressed a wish that the marriage should take place immedi ately. Thts happencd te be en the 7th of the month, the date long age settled upon but afterward abandoned. At midnight Rev.
