They will undoubtedly fight the battle to a finish. Bnffalo Enquirer. Promise and rraetlra. But now comes the report that Mr. Carnegie is to make a cntin wages. The laborers expected a rise, for had he not predicted that result? And is he not a practical man? The Mi Kinley bill is in full blast, but where is the proznisxl millennium? Instead of raising wages they are to be lowered. Mr. Carnegie has managed to make loth ends meot nnder the brnccnt influence of the high tariff, but his laborers are here after to receive only half a loaf. The proprietor of the steel works has a larger income than he can spend, but the men at his work benches and forges, with a reduction of SO per cent, their Incomes, are well null .lespcrate.

Mr. Carnegie's various large iron industries enjoy the benefits of high protection, a policy which ac cording to Mr. Harrison should result iu increased wages for the workingmen; and yet this tremendous cut is proposed nnder the full swing of McKinleyism. Atlanta Constitution. Hypocritical Twaddle. It is ft matter of history that while riding on the top wave of Republican favor, yelling about the "ennobling of American labor," in order to delude American workingmen into voting the Republican ticket, he (Carnegie) was se cretly contracting for Italians, Huns and Bohemians, whom he imported to this country to take the place of the American workingmen in his employ who demanded that they receive more than starvation wages for their labor. Hartford Times. A Sad Commentary. The Pittsbnrg situation is a sad com mentary on the workings of McKinley iam. In the last presidential campaign Mr. Carnegie contribnted $100,000 to that cause, which he could well afford to do; and then, as soon as Harrison was elected, scaled his workingmen's wages by 10 per cent. This year he was get ting ready for another reduction, but he seems to be having some trouble about it. It is a weary business bad in every way yon look at it. Cincinnati En quirer. Bobbins Miner to I'ajr Auejtmtrntt, Mr. Andrew Carnegie and the rest of the Pittsbnrg steel barons recognize the necessity of making liberal subscrip tions to the Harrison campaign fund: bnt they want to wring the money out of the wages of the men who toil in their mills. Philadelphia Record. Another Har'l from Carnegie. In order to square himself with the president for precipitating a labor dis turbance it will be necessary for Mr. Carnegie to forwa-.-d to the White House another barrel of that good old Scotch, freight prepaid.

In the course of Mr. Foster's private practice as an international lawyer he was entirely free t seek client and cases and earn fees. If in the relation of client and counsel or otherwise as a confidential adviser he took oti disabili ties for the office to which ho has been, as it seems to us, rather heedlessly ap pointed, that fact was not in any way discreditable to him. But the presi dent's ignorance of his disabilities is in excusable.

Foster's Appointment a UlumU-r. It Is a blunder, because it gives two cabinet offices to Indiana, a state which has already received more than its share of federal favors. It is a blunder, be cause it throws discredit on the admin istration and weakens the popular con fidence in the president's judgment of the fitness of men for fie dnties of the offices under his control. Finally, it is a blunder because it will cast an air of truth over the story current a week or two ago. that Foster's ofliciousuess caused Blaine to resign, and thus will bo a mortal affront to the ex-secretary and his friends.

A remarkable story was recently told by Mr. Michael H. do Young, of San Francisco. It represented Mr. Foster as having forced the resignation of Mr. Blaine by insulting him nt a conference with the Canadians who were in Wash ington seeking reciprocity. Mr. Blaine expressed certain views concerning the subject nnder consideration. "Those are not the president's views," remarked Mr. Foster curtly, according to Mr. de Young. New York Sun. The Force Dill Issue to Stay. The effort that is being made among conservative Republicans to elimiuate the force bill issue from the canvass is not meeting with much encouragement from President Harrison. His position on this question is such us to preclude putting it in the background, and he has taken the liberty of saying as much. The force bill issue is in the campaign to stay. Boston Herald.

In other words, William A. Taylor, the f JUK Democratic nom- ) elected. Mr. W. A V7 A. Taylor was VN V 5?' born in Perry county, O., fifty' years ago. He w. a. Taylor. began teaching school when but sixteen years of nge. devoting his spare time to the study of law, King admitted to the bar at the nge of twenty-one. In ls(S0 he renounced the law and entered the ranks of journalism and leeaine identi fied with the Cincinnati Enquirer. He afterward worked on the Pittsburg Post, the New York Sun and at one time had editorial charge of the Pittsburg Telegraph. He subsequently returned to the Cincinnati Enquirer, where he now is. During the war he served as a private in General Birney's brigale. Mr. Taylor is an author of considerable note, his published works including "American President and Contempora neous Kuiers." "The Peril of the Repub lic" and " hio Statesmen and Hundred Year Book." He resides in Columbus with his family, a wife and one son. He Will lie No Nonentity.

Those who know hint personally are en thnsinstio in their expr He is a man not only of the h;,-'.;est int gnty, but of strong pt-r-i'nal magnetism and force of character, and should the ticket on which his name appears be elected it is predicted that he will not be the i.on entity that vice presidents usually n-e, Baltimore News. Sut Nfuct ion with the Ticket. The nominations of Cleveland and Stevenson have been received with the utmost enthusiasm throughout Indiana. No Democratic ticket, not excepting that which contained the talisuianic name of Hendricks, was ever so handsomely or so numerously ratified in Indiana with in so short a time after it was named. From all parts of the state come reports of the intense satisfaction with which Democrat have received the action taken at Chicago. Indianapolis Sentinel. Well, rtardly. In 1890 the Independents of Nebraska polled 70.19 votes, the Republicans CS, 878 and the Democrats 71.831 for gov ernor. The allied Democratic and Inde pendent strength in the congressional struggle was still greater. As the anti Repnblican sentiment in the state is stronger this year than in 1S90 it is clear that Harrison will not get her eight electoral votes without a desperate fight. St Louis Post -Dispatch. An Absurd Appointment. Weareof the opinion that Mr. Foster's elevation will not impress the country as a great or altogether fitting appoint ment. We must say that he hardly measures up to the stature of the men who have heretofore filled the chair of state Webster, Marcy, Seward. Fish. Bayard, Blaine not to mention those of earlier days. Perhaps the appointment is only intended to be temporary. In dianapolis News. A Heavy Load. Joe Filer's officeholders are beginning the campaign in Illinois early. They feel that the depression in the Republic an ranks which has followed tho hu miliation of Blaine, the nomination of Harrison and the appointment of Foster, together with the weight of state issues against them, is a heavy load which can only be carried nnder the inspiration of music and fireworks. St. Louis Re public. Too Many Cooks Spoil the Itroth. The story that the president will form a personal campaign committee, not to take the place of the national commit tee, but to uct with it as an advisory board, is a queer indication of whither the politicians are drifting. The broth might possibly thrive under such a mul tiplicity of cooks, but if so the event would be a reversal of the culinary wis dom of the ages. Philadelphia Record. Whistling to Kerp I'p Courage. The pretended glee of Benjamin Har rison and his monopoly organs over the radical utterance of the Democratic platform on the tariil quet-tion suggests the valor of the boy who whistled to keep his courage up. That platform is no laughiug matter to a Republican tariff robber. Chicago Herald. A Had Year for Clarksoua. Clarkson, the b;.!l player, has Wen re leased.
