A. PKKCEPTADLE ItllTl.B CONTINUES TO
disturb the waters In the political pot
where the avowed Democratic five imders
went down In 1880, but this should bo suf
ficient warning to Democrats not to meddle
with the free trade buzz saw.
A SATISFACTortY rtltDUCTION or TUB
surplus b7 a fair revision of the present
hluh tariff rates has been promised bv both
the Republican and Democratic parties in
their last National carty platforms. The
Democtatlc party being In power the dut
devolves on them. Let the rates of the
tariff be consistently and wisely reduced In
such way as will not benefit the few but
rather the masses.
TlIE PRESIDENT IN HIS MF.S8AOE TO
Congress suggests as the best possible
means of reducing the rapidly accumulat
ing surplus, a fair and Judicious reduction
of the piesent tariff rates, not on articles
of luxury but on such commodities as In
reality affect the living of the masses.
The president thus rebukes the freo trade
howlers and settles tbe question of how he
stands on the great great question of pro
tection.
The sybtbm of hai.p-time woiik as
inaugurated at the Lehigh Volley Railroad
Company's works at Tackerton on Monday
Is undoubtedly meant as a "you must stop
contributing to the Lehigh coal strikers"
mandate. Tho effect of the half-time sys
tem if continued for a prolonged period
will be disastrous to the business Inter
ests of this borough as well asjamentablc
to the masses, and In consideration of this
fact It is hoped that the present order of
things will be of short duration.
DORINO THE PRESENT IVINTElt THE AD
VOCATE will prove unusually interesting to
its numerous' readers. Our New York,
Washington and Philadelphia letteis arc
of a high moral character and cannot help
but prove entertaining as well as instruc
tive; the local department is carefully
edited and contains the latest and best
news items up to the hour of gob g to
press; our miscellaneous selections are
choice and Instructive which makes tbe
Advocate the great moral paper of the
Lehlzh Valley. At one dollar per year it
should be In every household. Subscribe
for It.
THERE IS NO APPARENT CHANGE IN
the aspect of affairs in tho Lehigh coal re
gion. The miners are still out, and backed
fey the Knights o( Labor, are as determined
as they were twelve weeks ago not to return
to work without the raise asked for. This
tha operators claim they cannot and will
not grant, as present prices for coal are
superficial that upon the resumption of
work in that region prices will fall twenty
to forty per cent, as the markets in the
west are well supplied, as are also those In
the east. With this now difficulty present
ing itself it is not Improbable that the strike
will continue until spring. The effect of
this proiengation of the strike in the Le
high Valley will baye a serious effect upon
the entire business Interests and the result
can well be Imagined.
In a recent issue of the Hazleton
Platn Speaker is the following: "It looks
as though the Incoming Congress would
establish a government postal telegraph.
Nothing more beneficial could be done to
serve the people of this country." Will
our contemporary answer us the following
queries: In what, way will a telegraph
system, owned and operated by the govern
ment, benefit the masses? Is the govern
ment to erect a new line or purchase the
monopoly now In the hands of Jay Gould?
Is it not a fact that in foreign countries
where railroads, telesraphs and other indi
vidual enterprises are operated by the gov
ernment that the propensities of anarchism
predominate must extensively? And lastly,
' will It not place in the hands of the politi
cal party controlling the, government, a
power so vast as will determine tho suc
cess of said parly in national elections?
Anarchism, and the too great-power of po
litical parties, aro now the evils that tlircat-
.cn this country. A government telegraph
would augment the power of the political
party In national affairs and undeniably
causotm influx to the anarchistic cause.
CoXOIiESB (JUIBTI.V ASSEMUI.M) MoN-
day; after tho swearing in of several new
members, Carlisle was rerolected Speaker
of ile IIouso for the ensuing term. In
taking the chair that gentleman delivered
nn address sot. ing forth the necessity of
correct and immediate notion on the tariff,
adding that "there has scarcely ever been
a time in our history when the continued
prosperity of the country depended so large
ly upon legislation in Congress as now, for
the reason that the dangers which at this
time, threaten tho commercial and indus
trial Interests of the people are the direct
results of laws which Congress alone can
modify or repeal. Nultber the Executive
Department of the general covciiiment nor
tho local authorities of the seyeiaj States
,.cari deal effectively with tho situation
which now confronts us. Whatever Is
'done must be done here, and If nothing Is
'doncHie lespousiblllly iniit rest here. It
must be evident to every one who has tak
en even a partial survey of public affairs
that the time has now come when a revis

taxation are absolutely ncccssaiv In order
to prevent a large and dangerous accumula
tion of money in the Treasury."

Mb. Editor: Theru has been such a decided
change in the personale of the Senato since the
close of the last session ot Congress that it will
seem like an entire new body to those who have
been familiar with its appearance for several
years past, Fifteen new faces will appear at the
desks at the opening ot the session on Monday
next. The contest for seats began several
months ago, and Captain Bassett.vv ho was attend

has had a decidedly difficult task upon his hands
In convincing each one of the seventy-six Sena
tors that his particular desk Is by far tbe most
desirable one In the room. As a rule the newly
elected Senators, who come to the Senate for
the first time, are obliged to content themselves
with back seats, as the) mid that all the most
desirable ones have been assigned.
In the House of Kepresentatlven, upon the
other hand, all ot the seats will be balloted for,
no that the new member may secure the most
desirable seats In tli house, In case he Is so
fortunate as to secure the first choice.
The parties will b much more evenly balanced
In both the Senate and House of Itepreseutatlves
than tbey were In the last Congress. The
liepubllcani will have a smaller majority iu tbe
Beuateand too Democrats a smaller majority In
the House. In the Forty-ninth Congress the
Senate had forty-one Itepubllcans and thirty

Broairira's M ml Letter.
Special to tho Cardon Advocate.
At this session of tho year It Is a positive relief
to escape from the police courts from the scan
dals of private life from the turmoil of polities
from the failures, the bank robberies, -and nil
of tho evils of our every day life, Into the flower
shows and the art galleries, with which, thank
Providence, w e are now abundantly supplied. A
new blessing, and a glory to flora, Is the Japaneso
chrysanthemum, about the bcauh-of which too
much can hardly be said. Last year we had a
magnificent collection of them: but In several of
the exhibitions this year I have seen new varl
etles that I never observed before. Many of
these are magnificent, ivnd It has gradually vvorli
ed Its way to the front, till the stately rose pales
In Itsglorloitspresence. In all of our private
green-houses tlfev hold nn honored place, and on
the flowav stands Its cost Is equal to that of the
finest ro.vi.
In art wo are superabundantly blest, Muti
kacsy's "Christ on Calvary" is still attracting
marked atteimon, though It has "t created the
furore of his. .Christ before Pllnto." Whatever
Mr. Seldle mayor, tho owner, may say, ltdoosnot
seem possible that Monkncsy could ever have
esteemed "Chiist on Calvary" as his greatest
workt It looks to me- as If the great Hungarian
was suffering from tho same disease that cursed
Turner's latter days and clouded his great fame
avarice. Seventy thousand dollars Is ti great
price to pay for a picture; but that Is tho prlco
which It Is reported Wanneniakerpald forChrlst
before I'lliite. Scarcely a year has passed, and
hero IsMr. Seldlemayer again with what ho calls
the companion rlece, which ho would willingly
part with for seventy thousand more. Such enor
mous prices havoonlybeen posslblo within the
past few years, and in our age of colossal Jot
lunes." Speaking of art puts me in mind of tho Vow
that Is going on between Anthony Comstock and
Ivnoedler the art collector and connoheiir. MIti
gled with the beautiful, the true and the good In
art lsnvastrtc.il of humbug, cunt and vice. There
are certain nppetiles so vitiated ond defiled that
their venison must bo tainted to gratify their de
graded palate their gamo must hung In the sun
till the files gather around It, before the gamey
flavor Is all brought out; so In art, when any
prurient Inrtency Is brought forth to shock the
better sense of tho community, you aro met on
the threshold with the stunning announcement
that that Identical picture was exhibited in the
Purls Sakm.

OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER
Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 0, '87.
The horrible tragedy enacted at B07 South
Seventh street, 011 Friday evening, was a tcri'I
ble alfalr, for It resulted in the death of two
persons, Mary Shields and her Italian paramour,
llosnnlo IVdando, The house where this crime
was committed is an Italian resort for lewd wo
men and men. It Is an assignation house. The
vicinity thereabouts Is one place upon another
or such houses. It Is the lowest, vilest ntul most
God forsaken place in all Philadelphia. A man
to pass through theso quarters Iu day time Is re
quired to be on his guard on nil sides, or woo
unto mm. if hell had poured forth all its putrid
and evil spirits It could hardly excel theso fiends
in total depravity, virions dispositions and tie
liberal purpose to commit crime of every des
cription. The fate of Mary Shields and her
paramour Is nn unpleasant one, but 01m that
they fully Invited for "the way of the transgres
nor is hard."
The stomach pertaining tn the human body is
a great organ; one tbnt Is necessarily sensitive
onto matter and supply to the rest of the body:
this lietng so, It Is no wonder that about n week

TlIK THtSIDK vT'8 MESSAGE.
ThoTresldonl's message delivered toCon
grw Mondnv is one of tho most perspicu
ous and incisive of the royi nue and in.lus
tiial dell' fiances rycr made to the connlry.
It Is in no sense theolet leal ; it accepts and
treats nn exceptional 'Vonrti'ion" of the
counttylhnt must be met. regardless of
Ideal theories of revenue, or trade, and
the President hews to the line In his own
ruRffod way In defining the relations of
manufacturers, worklngmen and consum
ers to eacn oilier ami to tho general Inter
ests of the whole country. No specific
recommendation Is made of modification of
our Internal taxes, as they do not apply lo
the actual necessnrios of life, whilo cus
totns tnxes, when unvvlsoly levied. lmnoo
extortionate exactions upon consumcts nml
deprive? labor of much, and sometituos more
man all. of tho advantages given It by pro
tective duties. .Tho question of reduction
of internal taxes Is left to Congress with
out posltlyo Executive suegostlon. Just to
the extent that this feature of tho metsngc
shall be accepted as avcrso to tho reduction
of Internal taxes to aid in reducing tovence,
it 19 n Dimmer. 1 ucitcvo 11 13 to mat ex
tent a blunder on the merits of tho quest
ion; I nm sure It is a blunder that will
hinder rather than nid practical results,
because Internal tax reduction Is much
stronger than tariff revision as distinct
propositions In Congress, and only by
harmonizing tho two theories can revenue
reduction be achieved.
thr riioTr.CTiON or i.Anoit.
Whllo tho President urqes the thorough
revision of our tariff duties to attain rcve-
nuo reduction, lie Is most emphatic, in re
peated passages, in demanding that our
manufacturers and the industry they em
ploy shall be fully protected, lie declares
that "In a readjustment of tho tariff the
Interests of American labor engaged in
manufacture shall bo carefully considered
as well as the preservation of our manufac
tures," and in the same paragraph ho says
tliPt "It may becilled protection or by nnv
other name, but relief from hardships and
dangers of our present tnriil' laws should be
devised with especial prcciitlon against Im
periling tho existence of our manufacturing
interests." In another paragraph ho says
that "all will acknowledge the force oT nn
argument which Involves tho welfare and
liberal compensation of our laboring peo
ple, and ho adds that our labor, "as it
iles nt the founda Ion of our development
and progress, Is entitled, without affectation
or hypocrisy, to tue utmost regard," and
that "the s'andard of our laborers' life
should not be measured by that of any
other country less favored, and tliev are
entitled to their full sharoofall ouradvant
ag03 " In another paragraph lie says that
"the reduction ol taxation demanded
9hould be so measured as not to necessitate
or ltistifv cither the loss of employment bv
tho worklnsman nor the lessening of bis
wages, and in the closing p.irngr.ipn on the
subject hesays that "these things can and
should be done with safety to all our indus
tries, without danger to the opportunity for
remunerative labor, which our working
men need, and with benefit lo them and all
our people, by cheapening their means of
subsistence and increasing the measure of
their comforts."
NO TENDENCY TO FIIKE TltADE.
When it is considered that President
Cleveland keeps so distinctly In yievv 'the
maintenance of our manufactures and the
labor employed therein, all assumption of
free trade theory or purpose perishes from
the minds of the, American people; and
when it is further considered that the re
duction of protective duties proposed by
bira would not. co below tho staudard of
protection fixed by the distinctively Itepub
ilean protective tariff of 1S01. known as the
Slorrlll tariff act, tho people will better
understand what is meant by the tariff re
duction to reduce the revenues. In point
of fact, any reduction ot duties in indus
tries which aro In competition with forelsn
Industries, below tire standard of full pro
tection to both capital anil labor, would in
crease rather than reduce tho revenues 011
those articles. Thus when the principle of
maintaining our manufacturing industries
is recognized, tariff revision to reduce
revenue must maintain tho standard of
actual protection to avoid increased reve
nue. The chief obstacle to wise tariff re
visionfs in the fact that the necessities of
war compelled largely Increased duties on
many manufactured articles, and manufac
turers aro reluctant to assent to any reduc
tion from war taxes. The fact that many
articles of home nccossity could and would
be produced cheaper than they 'are now
furnished to consumers Is shown In the
pointed reference of the President to the
rapidly multiplying trusts or combinations
which aro Intended to maintain arbitrary
and extortionate prices to consumers. Tar
iff revision Is called for that will not only
protect manufacturers In legitimate proms,
but, at tho same time largely return the
present cost of articles which are common
necessities ot tne people.
Tlin.ENLAI10Mr.NT Of TII13 FISKU LIST.
The President, without specifying raw
materials except wool, obviously looks to a
very decided enlargnient of tho.freo list.
The principle will not be disputed, as en
larged freo raw materials .iron necessity to
cheapen our Industrial products and cheap
en necessaries; but it Is on this point that
the chief trcuble will arlso in adjusting a
new tariff. There are some raw materials
which, whllo if put on the freo list, would
greatly neneiit our mamitacturlng Industri
es are themselves akin to productive indus
tries; and herein will come the necessity for
concession 10 attain agreement, some ar
ticles can be put 011 tho free list now with
out injury to any which could not have
been inaiio freo ten years ago without crip
pling industry, and others aro in the same
process of transition and will sooner or lat
er bo entirely ludependentof protection. In
solving tills problem, tho President holds
slernly lo the nceeptoU doctrine of "the
greatest good to tho greatest number," and
it will devolve upon Congress to apply the
piinclple justly In tho admittedly indispens
able reduction of our revenues. The mes
sage will inspire more discussion and in
vestigation of tho exact relations of the
tariff 10 capital, industry and trade than
tiny document that oyer cmanatod from the
Chief Magistrate on tho subject, and with
the principlo of protect Ian to both manu
factures nnd labor distinctly asserted .13 tho
basis of tariff revision, the Intelligence of
the country will speedily define the lino of
judicious tariff reduction.
C'AIII.lcLE'H MANLY ITTTEll ANCE.
Speaker Carlisle Is known to be 0110 of
the most sincere and manly of our public
men, and bis distinct declaration In his ad
dress on taking the chair Monday, In
favor of tho protection of Ihe labor of the
land in revising our revenue laws has made
a profound Impression upon Congress ast
will upon tho country. It Is no surrender
of com lotion or departure from policy on
the part of Speaker Carlisle; it is simply
the self-adjustment of an enlightened and
patriotic statesman lo the practical solution
of a question that Involves the general
prosperity ot the people. His language Is
free from nil ambiguity; his words are ob
viously chosen lo convey his exact mean
ing, and the following extract is well worth
reprinting:
Investments made and labor employed In the
numerous and valuable liulnstiles which have
grown up under our present sytem of taxation
ought not to be rudely disturbed by .sudden and
radical changes In the jiolloy to w hlcli they hav e
adjusted themselves, but the Just demands of an
ovei toted people and the obvious requirements
ot the financial situation cannot be entirely Ig.
nored without seriously Imperiling much greater
and more widely extended interests than any
that could jiosslbly be Injuriously atfectedbya
moderate and reasonable reduction of duties.
No part of our lieopleaie more Immediately
or vitally Interested In the eoutimiiuce of finan
cial pnwirlty then those who labor for wages.
Upon them and tlielr families must always fall
tlw moat dlsaslious consequences of a monetary
crisis; and tbey, too, are always ihe last to real
ise the belied! of a return to pi osperous times.
Tlielr wages are always the first to fall when the
crisis colics, and the last to rise when It iwsses
ana
. Our effort should be to aftord the noi't-ssary re
lief to all without Injur' lo the interests nf any,
and therefore Hint course nt legislation should
be pursued whlih will guarantee the l.iboitng

This broad and emphatic expression from
.Speaker Carlisle leaves no reasonable ox
cue for factious disputes In his own party
on tarni revision anil revenue roductlon;
and it is neeep'ed by those Who feared an
attempt at nrlff revision on a freo trade
oasis, as opening tho way for easy unity on
what but lately threnteliod to wreck both
the Democratic majority In tho IIouso nnd
tho administration. It Is now plain that If
judicious tariff revision nnd revenue reduc
tion fnll to command 11 unltod party voto
In tho House, the fault will not be with tho
Speaker. It Is conceded that if Carlisle and
llandall shall be able to nmeeon tho nues-
tlon, the wholo party vole can be united,
and I speak advisedly when I say that both
of them now regard agreement as reason
ably certain. , Some of the Speaker's moro
ultra friends aro not entlicly pleased with
1113 iiuorai declarations 011 tne protection 01
labor, but thev would be shorn of their
strength by the general sentiment of tlielr
associates If thev do not act in hearty ac
cord wjlh his' policy. From Philadelphia
