i...--iiji about the committees Ls the Jeading
Washington topic, and will doubtlesa continue
to bc until Mr. Crisp tompletea hi.s difflcult and
thankleas ta-k. There is no lack of advice for
the Speaker from the munerona membera of his
party who are wOUng to aeTve their country in
h_8h aad maRoaaibla voaittotm. It ia tha ?--ier_J
bolief at the capital now that Mr. Springer will
bo made chairman of Ways and Means and Mr.
Holman of Appropriations. ln connection with
this it is of special intcreat to noto that tariff
reform undor tho guiding hand of Springer will
probably not take the form of a wholesale re
pral of tho McKinley bill, but win include I
BBtiea of bills to reinove tbat nieasure's mont ob
jectionable features in Democratic eyes.
Tbo mooting of dry-goods merchants yester?
day will go a long way toward dissipating tho
impression that New-York City is indifferont to
Uio World's Fair. It was a repreisentative meet?
ing. and the speechas and resolutions showed
tliat this graat department of business is unmis
takably iu ourncst. The purpose of the meeting
was ^to indorse B bill which has been prepaied
and will be laid before the Legialature. and to
urgo its passage at an early day. The bill pro
vides for Bfl appropriation of #500,000 to enable
this State to mako a good showing at Chicago.
Last spring an appropriation ol half thi.*** suro
was proposed; but we piesume there will now
be littlo objection to the larger amount. Why
should not other linos of business join with tbe
dry-goods men in soliciting liberal action on Uie
?Kiit of tho Legislature?
THE NEW PROGRAMME.
Tho Democratic programme is soraewhat
cbanged since tlio " tidal wave" of 1890 swept
the party into the oontrol of one house of Oon
gress and the possession of increased power in
several Statm That was heralded aa a Free
Trade victory; as a poptrlar condemnation of the
principlo of Frotei-rion ; as an indorsement of the
AdministratioB of Grover Clevcland and a loud
call for his renomination and ro-alection. All
tho Mugwmnp Contingent and a great majority
of the regnlar Democratic newspapera in the
tountry so interpreted it, and with boisterous
demonstrations of enthusiasm so bailed it. Thoy
?Bt up a * logic of tbo situatiou" on tho atrength
of it which pjinted so unmistakably and abso
lutely to the ehoice of Mr. Mills, tho great Froc
Trad'e advocate, as Speaker, and the subsequent
ronomination and re-election of Grover Clevc?
land. the graat Free-Trade orac.lo, as Pretridcnt,
that for a time both events appeared too ceitain
to adniit of argument to tho eontrary. The
business s-vemed already done. Congress was as
good as iflBBBlWlfl with Mills ln the ohair and a
revenuo taiill passed by tho House, and Cleve
land as good as elected, with a policy in opera
tiou that would preaently aboflish the BBaPBi
OBflaOCO flOOBBI and usher in the beneticent in
oomo tax.
Bfll thei-e was another eleetion. And that
elcction brouglit about another siuiatlon with
a diflerent logic attached t? it. Out of that
logic Mr. Crisp became Speaker. Then the
Mugwmnp Contingent kicked; m\*V*t snlked:
Grover Clevoland betook himself som'ewhorc to
think it ovor, and tho programme of the party,
not to say the whole order of nattiro, suffered a
chango. There is not any Mills la tbe Speakcr's
chair ; there will not be any Free Trade immedi
atdy, and it lookl very much as if there would
not'be any second term, or l-enomination eveii.
of Grover'Cleve'and. Keason why ? Tho scaro
of 1890 is over. A year'* experienco of the
McKinley bill has brought general praqBuify
iiistead of the lllMBlmi prodietod by calamity
howlers. The moro dismot and shrowd of the
DaBIOcralk managers had tho BBBBB to see that
the tirfo had turned. and in the late eleetion
were wi-* enoogh U> BTOld dboBsakMi of the tariff
in most of the States. wheroby thoy sucoeeded
la saving tlicinsclves from a sudden and com
plete upso:. Where they kept up tho old Free
Trado cry, as in Ohio. they were badly woi-stt'd.
So with the opefldag <>f Congrew the programme
is changed. The MugWIHUpa and Free Tradc-ra
are sent to tlio back svats, and the practical poli
ticians, who never lose sight of the main chanee,
aro in c-nnmand.
Tlieir programme now is to avoid flghting Ifl
the open on any qucstion. Tho game will be
not to commit themselves to any delinito Ihio of
policv ou dUBM ihe tariff or silver coinage. In
stead of a now Taritf bill, which last year they
so lmidly and constantly BBaertBd their pfltpoat
tvi bring in Bfld pa<s and go to tlie country upon
in lsi'JL', they will con ten t themselves with
nibbliflg at tba McKinley bill, peeking away at
the details, making what capital they may by
flault-tinding with its separato provisions, and
prapoaing aflack rajaadlaa foi* such imperfections
in it as they think they havo discovered. In
brief, the new ptognuiuno is to do as little open,
iqnara figb-Mag bb poaafbla, but to keep up aaort
ol iniscellaneous skimiishing. and bend all their
onergies to uianoeuvring for a position in 1H91!.
The success of Tammany Ifl thi** State and in
tho iBgaillialliai af the iloi\o has ostublished
Tamni.my tncties as the rule of the party for
iho Prosidontial campaign; and Tammany tac
ties have always been contined to conducting
rampaigtw by tricks and expedients insfead oi
9po9 piincipies and docfrines. What Tammany
wants is not the triumph of any principlc-iti
tmrm nothing for Free T/ado or Free- Silver?
but simply power and plunder. It made the
presunt Speaker; it controls the present House;
it sits in tho saddle. Its programme is agrecd
tip.m, and wo shall see wbether it can carry it
out.
THE ATTITVDE OF TIIE STATE DEMO?
CRATIC PRESS.
Is it possible that thero aro no Democratic
naanpapan in this Stato indej-endent enough to
NBBBI David B. Hlll'fl refusal to take his scat in
tho F nited States Senate BB a gross betrayal of
I great public trust? When ilill was elected"
9-naaw laaa Jaaa-rj "Tho Nehr-Taak World,-'
?' Tho Huffalo Courier," "The Kochester Union,"
"The Albany Times" and other leading ex
poiNflta of New-York Dcmoeracy took the ground
that it would not bo improper for him to retain
tho liovcriiorship until the opening of Congless.
Hut not one of them went furtber than that.
Not one of thom in3intained that he would be
justitied la failing entinely to ronder the peopile
of New-Vork any sc*ivite whatsoever in tbe
1'iiitod States Senate for a month aftor Con
gnaa had convened. " Ile ought to remain Gov?
ernor," said " The World," " until his duties as
Senator requiro his ptflBBflPB elsewhere." If Uiat
BBBBBi anything, it moant that as " The World"
looked at it he ought not, to remain (iovernor
alter his dutias as QpflllOf ro<iiiired his presence
at Washington. And so hold tho other Demo?
cratic papens to which wc have refcrred. What
do they say now? Do thfy or do they not ap
prove of the course whieh Hill pumues in re
maining at Albany, leaving this great Common
wealth with only a singlo representative iu thc.
Fnited States Senate? Do thoy or do they not
think that he is setting a good example as a
public ofllcial ?
On the 29th of 3ast January "The NVw-Yorlc
Sun" exftrossod itseif as follows :
y (Iovernor lllll should aet a- both Sonntor ftn-1 Oov
rmor ufter the 4tli ol Mwcli next, or 11 he should
JioHl Baal offlcca i?t once, he Blll thereby render him
?elf uuavallahle nnd itnjir.o ticuhle as _ candidute Lt
preKident
A littlo later * The Sun'^^marked that * the
Governor ia confionted by the broad, plain Dem?
ocratic principlo tha-t a man ahall not hold two
public Obbbbb* of a politieal nature at one and thc
saiiifT time." How doca it strike our neighbor
now ? Is it of tbe opinion that Hill, having held
on to the Governorahip and the Senatorahip not
only after the 4th of March but after the open
iiuc o| CoBBiejaa ia Deceaabex, ia "uBaraaable
and impracticable aa a candidate for President"".'
Ia it still of the opinion that " it is a broad, plain
Democratic piinciplo that a man shall not hold
two public oflhcea of a political nature at one
and the same time"?
Theie are salient qnesliina. They relate to a
point of general public ciicein. Foople with
old-fashioned idens of propriety look EBOB HflTl
emduct as scandalous in the la**t dcgreo. Aro
the DemocrStic nowsjiapeis afrsid t.i put thom
aelves on record ono way or the othcr'.' Most
of them pretcni! to hate monopolies with a per
foct hatred. Are they going lo BflBdOM this
unparallelwl monopoly at th' cxpense of tho
public servioe of whieh Hill is guilty'.
LIGHT FROM TIIE WBBT INDIES.
The justice of the American demand foi __8d*
procit.v is cloaily deniuiisi.rated in MV fltfl-f OOflfR
.pond'ence from tho LflfBBli Islands. TnB
l'nited States takes 7!? and England !? l>er cent
of tho total exports of that p .11 p. ln return tho
Fnitcd States supplieis :i:i and England IS |#r
oent of the total itniK.rts. This restilt is lar'.ely
produced by a tariff system whieh raeilitatOH by
low duties the intiodiietion of English inanufa.t
ures, and rerrtrict.. by high duties ihe iin'Hitta
tion of American food produets. This is shown
by tho table furnished by onr correspondent, in
w'hich the aventgo rate or duty on imports from
tho Uattfld States i* .35 1-2 in coinpafison with
.OH, the averago rate on English imporV*. Tho
free ILst, moreover, favois English against Aim*i.
can imports in tho proportton of 10 to 1 ; nnd
tho *ctistoms i.venues are largely diawn from
the food productvhipp^J l-Oflfl thc Fnitcl States.
The samo principlcs apply to tho entii" groiip
of the Hritish West Indies, from uhich England
buys 40jper cent, and sells in return (.'? jrr ent,
wh'ilo tho l'nited States buys _:**. per .ent and
sells 32 per cent,
The tariffs of -these islands are vitlually de*
viscd by tho liritish (lovornors sent out to nilo
ovor them and to mako them .0 far as possible
self-supijorting. They nocompli.sh their pur?
pose. not as Spain has done In Cul a l.y having
a nominal tariff on her own moiclrindiso and
an exorbitant one on tho same. Hassos of exports
from tho l'nited States, but by pntting a very
low rato or nono at. all on everythmg whit h Eng?
land ,can supply, and a xcrx high one on every
thing whieh the l'nited States alone CRR furnish.
There is no direct flUuilRlRflHoR in favor" of
England in duties 011 the BHR6 olfflR, bnl thero
is lan indirect and polent advantage in thfl
classification of nifitoms so as to plaee the bnr
dens of taxation upon American food supplies.
While English cottons aro -aibject to a duty of
8 ,per cont, American Hour ia liable to a duty of
23 )*er cent. English nianiifaciiiies aro favoi.nl
in this way and export* from tho l'nited States
are kept down. At tho samo time England buys
the smaller and tho I'nitod States the larger
porcentugo of what tho islands have to sell.
Thls is on its face an inequitable conilitiui of
trade. Tho United States In furnishing a ErRfl
market br the bulk of tho produce of the Hritish
Wivst Indies has a right to demand that its ,,wn
exports shall bo adniittc.. 011 a lovel with tho
8 per cent schodules rather than suhjectod to 35
per cent dutios.
The Redpiocity eonventions whieh RSTfl boem
negotiate.l at Washington with the British anffll
islands will have tho general effect. not only of
increasing American exports in return for tho
freo market for sugar. but also of cheaponing
*he food snpplies of the black populaii.-n. ln
that WE* the Ciiited States will acumplish for
tho islaiids what English QoYRmOlfl "ith -belt
low tariffs on cottons and their high tRtifffl 011
flour havo not done. England's Fre. -Trade pol?
icy is supposed to bo based 011 ehflRR supplios of

tho ohastening and wholesoine ajiplifl atimi of
facts. For some yoai-s tlie gi.wth at thc South
was indeed wondeiful, and to all suucie loveis
of the tsmntiy jveculiaily gratifying. Hut a ]>art
of it was too much on old lines to bfl <piito
heallhy. and the imwiiH.s of too RflfTOW dcvel-ip
inent llld too littlo divcisilication of fa_d__trj are
beginiiing to apjiear.
ITins it was notic*i-d not long ago ti.at B.li"in

much laiger tl.an a yoar ago. The spleiidhl

has lieon l??s solid and b_B8d apoa fl Iflflfl sttict
regard for pmlits attaniable in tbfl BRfl-flRBfl than
Uie development in Northern Stato. whieh has
been even greiter during R__>_R-RA time.
With one or two great staplcw of agri.ulture
and indelinite increaso in their production the
South has found that tho pricos of tlieso can be
depressed close to or even below the cost of pro
duction. llius the lat>-.t oflicial report of tlio
Agricultural Dopartment hlu.iN>. that the valuo
of cotton jh_t bale wlicn sold 011 Southern planla
tiota. is about $6 fio leas tlian a vejir ago, the
price beinR abont $36 50, against $13 j-or bale.
If the yifild in both yeara had been the aame, tlie
differonoe ia frioa aiana would repreaent a loaa
of about ?!5?,000,000 to tho Southorn producew,
but in fact thov havo alao a smaller yield at tho
tjawtx prioc. Probably tho .selling value of this
y.-irs cro]) falls *MO,u00.O0O below ahe selling
ralfla <>f thc larger BBBB grown last year.
The short mwi of crop is to somo a mi-fortunc,
|?it lha plantitiR far in excoss of tho world's ro
?piiroments WB8 r;ith<*r the result of dofective
tefcrnatfafl and judgment, and c-spocially ofT-he
(,!.| t ndcncy to devote too much time and labor
tn a'siiij-lobranch of production. Tho fanners
of tho Northwest. if they lose much of one crop,
have others to fall bark upon, and probably
realized a year ago by tthe markoiing of unusual
BVatban Ol cattle and bogs a great part of their
loa l.v wintcr-killing of wheat and dcstruction
of corn by diouth. ThU year they have excep
ti.n.il ullBlllBflJBB, for largo crops are sustained
in prico by unusual foroign demand, so that the
IgriaaHnial r?*port for December indicates that
thc aggragBBB value of wheat. oorn and oats on
tho farins ia probably groater by $300,000,000
ur more than tho farm valuo of tho same crops
last, year.
This is in part because tho West haa been
rapidly and vigoronsly developing manufactures,
and Bai tliose which depend upon distant BBBF
knts in other State*, but those which suppiy tho
noeds of tho Western people. New woollen and
bo.it and shoe cstablishments. mills fur tho man
nfachire of fl:ix goods. and the production of tin
plates and glass, new furniturcTand catriage and
agricultural implemont works, already make their
competitiin felt, reducing to some extont the
B/eB8ecfl demand for such products from other
IBgioflB. Tho South BBB done much in the
establishment of cotton mills and iron works. but
both have been derelopcd Ofl RMh lincs that they

thc uututuTi nianocuvres of tlx* Austrian aud Ger
uian arinics, and thc 6otindhess of his arKtiuienta
on tbo Bubjcct havc been dcnionstratcd. Aecording
to tbo reports which have just come to hand.
the troops exhaustcd tlieir stork of atuuitinitiou
within tl.c lirst ten ininutcs after jroing into action
-this too, in.twifhstunding thc lact that thev now
early almost daflbla tlieir lormer BBBBtB of cart
rtdfaa They were practieallv pheed hors de com
bat and rendered defenceless at the couimence
ment of tlie battle, and bad thc wurfare been real
laaBMBl ol sliam, they would have expotBd thcni
selves to atiuihilation by tlie cavalry.
In all the recent wurs cxperience has shown
that one ol thc chief diilicultles of the oflieers
is to prcvent their meu froin wasting tlieir
aniniunition. This is cspecially the case where
tho troops are young Bfld unseasoned. In the cx
citcuieut ol the battle they lose their hcads, and
not only lirc far too qaleb-f and too reclclessJ.v,
but fiC'Uently also without tukiiiu time to put
thc gun to their sliotilder for the purpose of taklnz
uiui. This cvil is inereased tenlold by thc adup
tion of the new repcating rifles. which pcrinit
a man to fire at least ten times fuster than with
the old weapoiis. Nor is Ihere uny remedy avail
ablc. for tins state of allaii- so long as the
syst.'ui of short-t.rm servicc iu use in thc
arniies of tlie old world involvea tlieir being
compoM'd of yottii!,' und tinseas'inod soldiers.
Another dlsadraataga ef the new rifles appcara
to have been found in tlie hcuting of the barrels
caused by* thc rapid liring. Even with the old
t iiis-cpot in the war of 1870, the French troops
were frc.'uently forced to sus|iend their llre iu tlie
middle of an action in order to allow time lor
tlieir barrels to cool wii.
lt is ditlicult to conrelve how the European
tiovernments will solve tlie dlllleulty with which
they have uow been hrought lace to lace. That

iitlrs Bfl which they have s|M*nt such vast suuis
Bf money, ground BBt of tlie tax-burdened i>cople,
888888 to be beyond tlie boiinds of possibility;
and e.|tially improbable Ls il that they will prolong
the terui of military servkc in order to allow time
for their troops lo becomc seasoned. Indeed, tlie
teudency of national ************** is in the direction
of even short*r serviee with tlie colors than at
present. The .iiiestioiij however ia a vital one
utul .leman.ls tt protnpt solution, for it ia bf re

tlie infautry has won some of the niost deaperately
