By placing John C Spoouer at the
bead of their atato ticket, Wisconsin Re
publicans have, shut themselves out
from any hope of reprieve from the sen
tence of popular condemnation passed
pos them two years ago. They have
enrolled themselves tinder the banner of
professional lobbyist, corporation agent
and Itching politician. Overwhelmingly
repudiated by his state two years ago,
when a Democratic legislature was
elected to choose his successor in the
United States senate, John C. Spooner
fa fitted only to lead his party in Wis
consin to fresh defeat and humiliation
as its gubernatorial candidate. The
man of whom his own party organ, the
Milwaukee Sentinel, confessed that he
lad been known "for many years past
a the chief of the corporation lobbyists
in Madison,, is not the Moses to lead
Wisconsin Republicans out of the wil
derness. . i
On the tariff and the school issues
Hoard and Spooner were defeated in
Wisconsin two years ago, and on these
me issues Harrison and Spooner will

The national encampment of the

It is not unatur.il th.it the people
of New York and New Jersey should
regard with dislike tlu Reading
Railroad consolidation, or that thev
should welcome with exultation the
injunction granted by Chancellor
McGill, of New Jersey, upon lease
of the Central Railroad of New Jersey.
New York City has long had the
great advantage of active railroad
competition, toge her with the larger
advantage ot free use of the Lne
Canal. Philadelphia, meantime, lias
been practically in bondage to a sin
gle railroa 1 company which possessed
a monopoly under which the com
merce of the city could make no
headway. Hoth New York and New
Jersey for many years have been per
mitted to buy coal taken from the
mines of Pennsylvania at less price
than were required of Philadelnhians,
who live nearer to the coal mines and
who have a riiht to enjoy the bcrent
of their position. That New York
City and the State of New Jersey
should be averse to surrendering the
advantages they have ha.I m these
particulars cannot be complained of,
but it is equally unreasonable to
complain that Philadelphians should
try to obtain justice for themselves,
and should rejoice when the instru
ment for obtaining it had been fash
ioned. It is safe to sav that no event that
has happened for many years gave
more solid satisfaction to the com
mercial interests of this :!ty than the
extension of the power and the area
of control of the Reading Railroad
Company. That great enterprise
presented itself to Philadelphia, not
as a combination for purpose of op
pression and extortion, but as a pro
ject which would at once relieve the
business of the city from the tryanny
and hurt inflicted by the great cor
poration which hitherto had held
Philadelphia trade at its mercy.
This relief, in fact came at once. It
appeared m the substitution, by rail
way officials, of courteous solicitation
of freights, for insolent indifference
in the quick settlement ol long de
layed claims: in the offer of increased
facilities for shipment and immediate
enlargement of certain kinds of com
mercial operations. No Philadelphia
man not directly interested in the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
would be willing to return to the former
condition of things. The practically
universal feeling is that the city has
had a great deliverance, and that now,
for the first time for many years,
through the instrumentality of the
Reading combination, the commercial
forces of Philadelphia have a positive
assurance that they may operate un
der conditions of fair play.
Thus rhiladtlphians do not wel
come Chancellor McGill's decision.
and they do regard with feelings of
. . r .1 . . .t
sawsiacuon me . assurance mac ine
power to break a lease does not in
volve the ability to forbid co-operative
action, which will attain all
the purpose for which the lease was
arranged. They .are not indifferent
that the price of coal shall go up or
So down; but they are much more
eeply interested in havinir made
permanent a system which will sup
ply them with fuel at prices lower
than those that must be paid by con
sumers at a greater distance from
the coal mines. The Philadelphia
manufacturer cannot be expected to
mourn because his competitor in
Jersey City or New York must pay
more for fuel than he pays. Nor can
any citizen of this State find reason
for regretting that provisions have
been made for stopping the practice
of mining Pennsylvania coal at a
loss. There is no reason, in morals
or in revealed religion why we should
disembowel the State of its mineral
treasures for the purpose of supplying
to citizens of New York the best fuel
in the world for less than its real
value. These are some of the con
siderations which reconcile the peo
ple hereabouts to a consolidation of
railroads that has appeared very
grievous to some other persons.

Common glass may break or

break it ; if not, it may break

Tough glass chimneys, Mac

Tills of course they nre obliged to do
to get tho trade, as foreigners ure not
obliged by law to pay JIcKinley prices.
When European plows are offered in
Boulli America at 40 pur cent, under
McKinloy prices, our exporting manu
facturer must cot 4t per cent, or lose
the trade. This is so plain that it is self
evident; yet some manufacturers havn
been inconsiderate enongh to deny it.
Mr. A. P. Farquhar, the head of th
Pennsylvania Agricultural works, i
more candid, however. He sells largely
both at home and abroad, and he makes
no pretense that ho tries to keep up Mc
Kinley prices when outside the lines of
the McKinley tariff.
Ho declares that he is ready to meet
competition on the merits of his goods.
"The farmer is being destroyed," he
says. "We are killing the goose that
lays the golden eggs; and I honestly be
lieve now that it is to the interest of the
manufacturers to eliminate the protec
tive feature from our tariff laws. Cer
tainly if our manufactures are sold
much lower abroad we could only need
protection to get better prices from our
cuHtomera at home. We do manufac
ture and sell in Canada, South America
and Europe many agricultural imple
ments and machines, and could we have
freo raw material and the commercial
advantages which freo trade would give
us, America would become the great
manufacturing emporium of the world,
and tho farmer of course would share
the prosperity, 'since he would have less
to pay for everything and get better
prices for all ho sold."
This is common Be:is, but so long nRa
manufacturer beliovcs in artificial Mc
Kinley prices and shrinks from com
petition on tho merits of his goods, it is
idle to expect him to show common
sense. But it is even more idle for Mc
Kinley manufacturers to deny that they
sell cheaper abroad than they do at
homo, if they sell abroad at all. If th?y
did not, on what grounds would they
ask tho American peoplo to go on pay
ing McKinley taxes to protect them at
homo from the competition they meet as
soon as they get beyond the lines of
McKinley custom houses. St. Louis

Mr. Proctor points with pride to the

Tho tariff is tho all important issue of
