Camera Jfrctmmi. EBCNSBURC, PA.. FRIDAY, - - - APKIL II, lSo. Thk report of the House Committee on the bill to prevent jerrymandering, puts the pnncpte vp ry plaint that no grr)manlera are pernmaibte except those which help keep the l.'publcan party in power. It is said that the te!egr?pa In .this country are practically owned by one man, and the railroad i by ouly aixty families. A collective ownership of the means of communication and loco motion Is insisted on by the great labor organizttions of the country, and qnite likely to corneas an assured fact with in the next generation. liEc en t investigation has shown that the people of Great Britain swal low over j.OOO.OOO i Ills daily, or one pill a we k for every person in the popula tion. The pill consumption tor one year would weigh 178 tons, and would fill 3t freight cars, which it would take two powerful locojootives to pull. Placed In a row the pills would reach netrly 0..10O miles, or from Liveipool to Xew York and back affair). Of all the British monarchs since the Norman Cooquest, upward of eight centuries ago, says the Philadelphia Record, Jtrres II was tbe only ore who abdicated the throne ; and his abandon ment of royalty was due to tbe fear that his liberty and life were In danger. The rport that (ueen Victoria has de termind to bring her long role to an end may, therefore, be accepted with caution ; especially in view of the old lady's reputation for thrift. In fact, her abdication might mix matters up worse than they are. now. The health of the l'rince of Wales is believed to be precarious, and the assumption of the crown by hi callow son would undoubt edly briug dangerous pol'tisal forces into ect've existence In Great Britain. The ruling low price of grain is plainly to be found in the fact that those countries which, by the aid of steam power have been made neighbors and enabled to carry on trade with each other, are pronucing more grain than can be consumed within their borders, and that everything left as a surplus must of necessity become cheap. Twenty, thirty or forty years ago North America was the only conn'ry from which Englaud could supply her own detlconcy in tbe matter of griin. At that time it was only necensry for the American agriculturist to know how the harvest in England bad tnrned out in order to fix upon the price of his own production. At present, however. not only the United Srates ard Can-, ad i, hut also .Siuthern Ras.f, Esypt. Ir.ilia. Australia and the Argentine IpuMic ofTr their grain to Eng land and ao other article of food, such as buef and mutton, sheep and cattle from Australia and South Amer ica have found their way to tbe markets of the world. The consumers in Eng land and e'.sewhere derive bc-ntfit from this general competition, but to the producer, I. e., the farmer. It is a source of injory, and tbis to no less an extent in freestrade-iuclined England than in protectionally-incllned Ameri ca. Looking at the problem in this way undoubted free trade is of the greatest advantage to the farmers in the United States, as it will cheapen all articles and implements that be must buy. It will bring into competi tion at bis very door all the markets of the world, and he will not be compelled to pay a b'gh protection duty to a manu facturer in this conntry only because the goods he roust buy are manufac tured in tb" United States. Ik pursuit of their master scheme to pack the Electoral College, the Repubs lican managers says tbe New York Mar. have to steer between difficulties. They cannot rely solely upon increasing the number of Presidential Electors by admitting new States. If all their wishes in this respect should be fulfilled, they would still be unable to figure out a safe majority without the vote of New York. They are afraid to risk tbe re sult in Utah. The Ohio proposition to admit Alaska and rely opon the sealskin vote, con trolled by the Commercial Company, is too palpably absurd. The other terri torial possessions of tbe dated .States can scarcely furnish votes enough on a rotten burough system, even if lew Mexico and Arizonia be shamelessly deprived of the Statehood conceded to communities inferior in population. It is plain that to Insure continued con trol of the Federal Government by tbe minority party something must be done about the Totes or States already with in the Union. Here the second difficulty Is encoun tered. It will not do to lose control of Congress la an effort to capture the Presidency. To overcome it is tbe puzzle that the McComas schema has undertaken to solve. It Is proposed to have the gerrymandered districts In tbe old States remain as they are cow, and at the same time increase Congressional al representation, and consequently membership of the Electoral College, by adding for increased population io States a number of Congressmen-at-large. In this way, by concentrating Floater Fund resources on close States, whose delegations have been increased, it is hoped to carry enough ot them to give the Republicans tbe rrsjority of the Presidential Electors. In Statts safely Republican tie advantage of the increase is. of course, reckoend on. The job of packing the Electoral Col lege la a very difficult one, even for such specialists in "fine work" as Sen ator Quay and his associates. Never theless, they will go on with It with courage, adroitness and confidence, and it is necessary for citizens who be lieve io the American system of rep resentative government, controlled by a constitutional majority, to watch them closely and expose their tricks in cessantly, in order that the force of in dignant public sentiment may bsfllj their canning scheme. Tar Iff Agitation ew and Then. That m my Important business inter ests of the country are profoundly moved by tbe menace of the McKinley bill is patent to the most careless ob servers. Petitions and memorials pro testing against leading futures of the measure are ponrlng upon Congress in every malt, and it is evident tbat ty rannical application of party discipline to refractory members alone could se cure its passage, lt-rubl-can Repre sentatives in tbe manufacturing centres of the country cannot close their eyes to the tact that the bill seriously threat ens some of the leadicg industries of their constituents. When the Mills Tariff bill was under consideration two years ago tbe Re publican orators and organs made al! the circumambient air resound with heir ou'cries againut tariff agitation. The wicked freetraders were denounced In tin measured terms for wantonly and mischievously disturbing tbe great manufacturing industries of the country when quiet was necessary for their prosperity. Of course, in the agi tation of Tariff Reform a certain de gree of business disturbance was una voidable. Bat In view of tbe certain and permanent improvement of indus trial conditions by a reform of tbe tar iff tbe Democrats in Congress were uot deterrra from grapling with tbe ques tion ry rear or a transient derangement of a few departments of trade. Yet the reproach which was then made against the Democratic party, in all forms of partisan exaggeration, may now be. brought against the Republi cans in Congress with the most com pete justice. For elghteeu years the great tanning and leather manufactur ing led us-tries of the country, employ ing many thousands of men and many millions of capital, reposed in the con fident belief that their business would be r.o further disturbed by tariff legis lation. In the enjoyment ot a large export trade, affording a sure market for their surplus products, they sought no increase of protection. They asked only to be let alone. But in the midst of their prosperity these industries have been startled by the proposition in tbe McKinley bill to impose a duty on their raw materials, thus threatening their domestic and foreign trade with con fusion and disaster. So with the great carpet industries. The carpet manufacturers have not asked for an increase of tbe present duties, under which but a small quant-, ity of foreign ctrpets have been import ed. Although the duty on their raw material is extremely burdensome, many of tbem have beeu willing to bear it rather thaa that the ordinary course of trwir business, should become de ranged. Bat the carpet manufactur ers have teen aroused from their repose by a threatened increase of forty per cent. In the duty on their raw ma terial. Upon the industries that have been created for canning meats, fruits and vegetables is to be inflicted the penalty of a double duty on tin-plate for the purpose of calling into being a manufacturing monopoly. Io order to silence cKmor azainst oppression in one direction a bait is offered to greed in another ; and to this end the silk schedu'e is to be completely derarged, although the great t ody of ei k manu facturers are content with the existing rates. In addition to the increased du ties on wool, it is proposed that the the rates on chemicals and dyes'nffs skat! be raised cr changed, to the furths er embarrassment of textile industries. f SpeclCc du'iea are to be changed to ad valorem aud ad valorem tc epecifi. and in many instances it is proposed that both shall be compounded ; whxh would cause inextricable confusion aud iunroeral 1- lawsuits. If t I this ba be not a wanton dls t urbane of Industry and trade, what else is it ? It U hardly possible tbat such a monstrosity should become a law. Should it be passed, however, in spite of the tremendous opposition it has en countered in New England and else where, it would give an Impetus to such an agitation for Tariff Kfcrm as the country ha never yet witnessed. And wnether passed or not, the Republican party must be held reeponsible for the malignant and wanton attack which is made upon numerous and Import act American industries t.y the McKinley Tariff bill. I'hla. liccord. Look Oat for Quarks ! If the farmers of tbe country do not see through the wonderful zeal it. their behalf by numbers of men who are not farmers themselves, tut have political schemes of their own. we shall bo ly disappointed. Tbat the farmers as a c:ass naye ranen cpon bad times, not In one Sure, but all, not in the United States alone, tut in foreign countries as well, is entirely true. Ltoda have declined in value ; so have products, of which they are too many. There has been over production, and the pro ducers for the moment cannot help themselves. Fortunately, however, it is a disease that contairs tbe elements of its own cure, and the farmers as a class do not need the advice of politi cians who are attempting to climb on their tacks to reach wbet does not be long to them, and which they can ob tain by no legitimate arguments. We see nothing which the farmers stand in need of so much as Ihe caution that will keep tbem out of wild-cat organi zations under the title of Farmers' Alliances," Agricultural Leagues aud so on. What is wanted is tbe ex ercise of intelligence as to demand and supply, the central fact being tbat as grain growers tbey have grown more than for which there is a demand. There is no salve in the wide world tbat will cure such a complaint. None is needed. Growing only much and just wbat tbre is a demand for is the only cure. Look out for quacks I There are States where the case is different and where farmer's organiza tions, as in a number of Southern States, are the only means the farmers have for obtaining their rights. There the matter is not that too much, but too little some times nothing at all has been produced, wherewith to pay taxes. There farmers' organizations are the means or salvation. The distinction should be observed. 1'ittalurg Timet. London. April 6. For some time extraordinary rumors have reacted Candes about the conduct of the exiled Emperor of BrrzU. Dom Pedro.

Tax Reform advocates. - There isnow a calm in partisan polities, bat the discussion or tbe crushing taxes which are crippling or bankrupting many or our industries, including both farmers and mauufacturers, is progress ing among tbe people with ceasl ess en ergy and resistless persoasion. Tbe foremost tax reform campaigner now in the field is the Sheriff. lie is most Impressive in the mute eloquence of writs for debt, writs of execution and notices of foreclosure of farm mort gages, and thus far bis arguments have been unanswered by the no longer even plausible promises of protection. Tbe farmer finds it no answer to tbe Sheriff's persuasive writ that tbe tariff tax is to be increased on corn for his protection, when tbe Western farmer is burn ng bis corn for fuel because be has no market for it. Nor dxsit answer tbe Sheriff's writ or the grim command of tbe farm mortgage, to tell the farmer that a tax has been levied on butter for his protection, when he understands that we export five times as much butter as we Impcrt ; or that tbe tax has been increased on bops, when he knows tbat we export one-third tbe hops we grow ; or that a tax baa been levied on eggs, when tbe whole import of eggs is not five per cent, of tbe con sumption ; or tbat a tax has been put upon hides as contracted for by the Cattle Trust. when the only result to the farmer would be increased cost of shoes, harness, belting, etc. Tbe campaign of tbe Sneriff. of the assignee, and of tbe farm mortgage has been in moat acMve progress this spring, not only among the farmers of Pennsvlvania. but also among tbe farmers of New England, tbe West and the South, and within one week tbe Republican cities of Coicago and Mil waukee and tbe Republican State of Rbodn Island have voted Democratic to emphasize the hunger cry of tbe people for relief from crushing taxes on tbe nerssaries of industries and of life. There are other most impressive tax reform campaigners now steadily at work, and working most effectively, in tbe various assemblies of creditors of our ln4atries which have been bank- rupted by wicked and needless taxes. Nearly seventy such assemblies have gathered in this city to see and feel the ruin wrought by wi nton taxes on tbe raw materials or our woolen Industries alone, and the aggregate loss of credi tors foots way op in the millions. The arguments of facts and figures present ed at these meetings of losing creditors are simply nnaswerable, and tbe tax re form campaign is thus progressing most successfully from day to day. Now Is tbe time for study and argu ment on tax reform. It is a p'ain, practical business problem tbat applies to all classes and conditions, and it should be carefully considered when there is do partisan strife to cloud the judgment. The tax reform advocates are now doing their work most impres sively and it will bear speedy and bountiful fruit. Phila. Times. Toe Iowa Republicans. After experimenting seven rears tbe Iowa Republicans confess Prohibition' a failure in tbat State. The more hon est Republicans go further. They as. sert tbat the half-hearted measares the party adopted have worked irreparable damage to tbem in Iowa. Tbev began with sweeping enactments In 1SS3. and ever since have been joggling wl h tbe voters in districts largely made op of Germans, who wre opposed to and re sented tbe restrictive provisions of tbe law. Tbe operations of the law in many agricultural districts have been satisfactory to the people and to the in habitants of small towns, but in the cities and the larger towns it is now ad mitted that tbe law have never been enforced, and as a whole Prohibition in Iowo is a failure. Alt tbe genius of the Republican leaders has failed utterly to secure the degree of acquiescence essential to tbe permanency of the enactments relied upon to meet tbe demands of the temperance people. The proportion of Republicans who have resolved to aban don extreme ground, and who are seeking middle ground and more secure footing, is suficlently large to indicate a rupture unless their counsels prevail. Such seems to be tbe comp'exion of af fairs in Iowa to day. Tbe telegraph bricgi as the appeal which the executive committee appoint ed by the anti Prohibition Rrpubiicao conference makes to the legislature of Iowa. One sentence sounds so pathetic that we are tempted to reproduce it : "The parly has already lost its magnifi cent majority solely on aceonnt of Ira attitude toward prohibition." No words of ours can add to this, which is supplemented with the mournful con fession that "the defection goes on every day." The anti-Prohibitionists in Iowa are reckoned at fr.m C0.000 to 80,000. Tbe conference at D'sMoines, where the petition we have quoted was drawn op, was called for the purpose of devis ing measures for tbe preservation of the Republican party abd tbe maintenance of Republican rule. For one word in the petition tbat is inspired by tbe spirit of temperance two reveal the dread of the dangers tbat threaten tbe Republican par'y. Pittsburg Post. Opposition to Delaniater. Senator tjaay has returned from Flor ida to find tbe grand old party in Penn sylvania very much disorganized, and in the seclusion of bis Beaver borne, whither he bas-gone, it is not at all Improbable he will give the matter bis serious consideration. He doubtless knows by this time tbat tbe opposition to Delamater is too strong in its char acter for bim to ignore, and it will be surprising. Indeed, if be, in tbe face of this opposition, forces tbe senator from Crawford on the gubernatorial ticket. Tbe Phlladelrhia correspond ent of the Chronicle-Telegraph is au thority for tbe statement tbat Quay ia do: at t H p'eased at the manner in wblch Chairman Andrews, of the State Com mittee, has managed affairs, lie says;: "Quay denounced the Cambria steal as stupid and unnecessary, and declared that the elections by County Commit tees in Eik and Fulton counties was about as bad. Instead of encouraging Andrews and Delamater. Qaay inti mated very strongly that be was about ready to leave tbem and go over to somebody else. This talk was based oo first Impressions only. After being !n Philadelphia a day or two Qaay be came more savage. From all side came bad news as to tbe outlook In tbe State." If this be true Delamater's gubernatorial bark will never reach the haven to which It is being steered. There are breakers ahead, and na mis take. llarrifbterg. Patriot. la r. a wan (! Iatcwra.al?
