Democrats Breaking Faith.
In the absence of Ml. Bailey, of Ten
as, who, as the cho en leader of the
Democracy in the House of Represen-
tatives, pledged his party to a policy of
non-interference with the majority, it
would probably be unfair to hold him
fully-responsible for the violation of
his agreement. B it why Wasihe absent
from the inportant second day’s de-
bate? Of what use is it for a man to ac-
cept leadership and . make pledges if his
more personal non-appearance is to
have the elf-ct of neutralizing all his
fair word’s? ~ -
In the debate on the tarifl’ bill under
the five-minute rule the Democrats
succeeded in obstructing prozress to
such an extent that at the Saturday ses-
sion but six pages of the bill were dis-
posed of, making but fourteenzin all in
two of“~the five days allotted to the dis-
posal of 162. This is a distinct change
of Democratic policy as well as a breach
of. jaith.
- Mr. Bailey, on giving notice to the
Republicans, took the ground that the
country was so distinctly opposed to a
return to high tariff, that the'most pru-
dent course of his ow‘n party would be
to let the maj Irity pass its bill without
amendment or molestation and go br-
iore the country with it at the next Con-
gressional elections. ,But five amend-
ments were ofl'ered;_the rest of the time
was taken up in chatter and charges cf
bad faith, made with no other apparent
Object than delay.
The country, however, will be‘. the
best critic of this unpa'riotic and treach-
e'ous course, and may be trusted to
11 gel with those who are committed to
it. There can be no doubt of the broad
general proposition that prosperity will
not return until we have at least sub-
'stituted a revenue raining for a defi-
ciency tarifi‘. .Upon those, who for
sheer partisan purposes, aim with futile
faithlessness to prolong the extra ser-
sfon and delay the consummation of its
sole object, the penalty will be imposed
in due season. To a tariff bill of perfidy
and dishonor the Democracy is now ap-
parent] y committed to add a programme
as peifidious and dishonorable. Such
a programme will have the efl'ect
at least of mitigating the comparative
horrors of Populism, without interfer-
ence with the programme of the Repub-
lican party.
Tariff Revision First.
Secretary Gage, it is reported, favors
the appointment of a monetary com-
mission to begin its labors in recasting
our financial system at as early a date
as possible.
The report may be true without com-
mitting Mr. Gage to any degree of
sympathy with the extremists of the
Cleveland—Carlisle cult who insists that
not the tariff but the greenback is re-
sponsible for the depression of business.
A good deal depends on the telling of a
story of this kind. . .
It ought to have been ad ied that Mr.
Gage, like Speaker Reed, has his eye
fixed on tarifi' revision as the one indis-
pensable necessity of the present time
and session of Congress. The Speaker
had no hesitation in so informing the
delegation .of monetary reformers that
called to ask his co-operation, and it is
probable that Mr. Gage was equally
frank. '
What is plain to many careful and
thinking men is that the inefficiency of
themonetary system complained of by
a‘small but noisy clique is largely due
' to the failure of the present tarifi either
to yield revenue or to'contribute to the
dissemination of currency as it should.
Once put the tariff on a right footing
and it will probably be found that the
need for monetary revision does not
crust. This the belief of some
thoroughly expert financiers. Mani-
Testly to jeopardize the tariff by con-
fusing the issues would be a mistake of
cardinal dimensions.

iiIIW Youths "CAPITAL.
, Governor, Black Determined to Finish It
During His Term of Office.
Albany, March 31.—‘—Governor Black
has decided that the capitol must be
completed before the expiration of his
term. In order to determine how much
money will be necessary to complete
the building, or at least carry on the
work until April, 1898, a. conference will
be held within a few days between the
governor. Superintendent Aldridge,
Capitol Commissioner Perry, Senator
Ellsworth ‘and Assemblyman Nixon.
It is probable that the introduction of
an appropriation bill will be the out-
come of this conference.
The work to be executed by the pres-
ent contractors was awarded for $1,356,-
388, of which $500,000 was appropriated
last year, leaving $850,388.60 to be ap-
propriated in- the near future for the
completion of the work. The, total esti-
mated amount necessary to be appro-
printed for the completion of the build-
ing will be $1,043,342.83.

Nominated by Governor Black.
Albany. March 31..——Governor Black
sent to the senate today the nomina-
tions of err—Lieutenant Governor
Charles T. Saxton of \Vayne county
and John Parkhurst of Steuben county

The first named succeeds Judge Hugh
Reilly of this city, and the latter Judge
Wilbur F. Porter, who was the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor last fall.
RIOTING IN HAWAII.
lapanese Laborers Are Making Serious
Trouble on the Island.
San Francisco, March 31. — The
schooner Robert Lewers has arrived
from Honolulu. bringing news of a. se-
rious uprising of Japanese laborers on
the islands.
For some time the Japanese on Hilo
and other islands have evinced a. dis-
position to defy the law. The trouble
culminated with a riot on the Spreck-
elsville plantation near Wailulu and
the brutal murder of the Japanese in—
terpreter. Several arrests were made,
whereupon the Japanese, 300 strong,
prepared to visit VVailulu jail and de—
mand the rescue of their countrymen.
The citizens’ guards were ordered out,
and a number of volunteers went to the
assistance of the militia. Citizens sent
their women and children out of the
place. and preparation was made to
give the rioters a warm reception. The
Japanese heard of the plan to fight
them and merely made a. formal de—
mand for the release of the prisoners.
