EDITORIAL LETTER.
\l’Asrrrxorox, D. C., May 20111, ’00.
Dear: GAZETTE :--The House passed its
tariff bill amid much uproar by a strictly
party vote. Tirere was rnuch suppressed
republican dissatrsfaction with the bill in
many of its features, but assurances were
given that when it got into the Senate
opportunity would be. given to right such
errors and palpable wrongs as had crept
in in the hurry of its House preparation.
The Senate finance committee will report
an entirely new or substitute bill. The
one fundamental republican principle of
profi-ctiorr to American labor and products
has been maintained throughout the bill,
and with that McKinley is content to
Submit its details to the improving and
amending hands of the Senate. Senator
Allison says that there are many items
in the Lil“ where the duties are clearly
I‘ll-fl too high, and he shall try and have
all such corrected. The Senate finance
committee has already taken up the bill,
and, Saturday, ordered ten thousand
copies printed for circulation among the
manufacturers, importers and business
men of the country. It will be several
weeks before a carefully prepared substi-
tute bill can be formulated ready to report
to the Senate. This course is deemed better
than to report thebill as it came from the
House with amendments; for, when it
goes into conference, there will be but
one question to settle instead of a myriad
of differences upon points in detail. This
was the course pursued with the tariff bill
of 1883, and it was found to result in a
saving of time. The finance committee
will endeavor to maintain its determina-
tion not to give oral hearings to interested
parties, but importers of several cities in
great numbers, and representing two
hundred millions of capital, are expected
hercthls veek to demand hearings. If
Such appear in a body it is probable that
the committee will open the doors to the
representatives, and the flow of talk be-
fore the committee will be practically un-
restrained.
Hou. Mahlou Chance, of New York,
acting general secretary of the American
Protective Tariff League, is here, and
says that the McKinley bill will go through
the Senate with only slight modifications,
that it is a well conceived and carefully
prepared measure, lI.-- strength of which
has been fir y tested in the House.
The point which will probably be an
object of attack in the Senate will be the
tin plate schedule. That is the Shibboleth
of protection in the present bill. If
adopted within twoyears we will make all
our 0er tin plate, and the price will then
go lower than ever before. We could
manufacture it now at; present. prices, but
as soon as we started to manufacture the
English producers would cut rates to
break down our manufacturers. We
might as well keep at home the $25,000,-
000 we spend abroad for tin plate, and
give it to our own workmen.

There have been the largest number of
vacancies in the present House of any
House of Representatives that has as-
scmbled since the close of the war. There
are now sitting in the House nineteen
members who were not elected to it when
the Congress was chosen in November,
1888, and there are still two vacancies to
be filled, occasioned by the death of Rep-
resentative David Wilbur and the advance-
ment of Representative John G. Carlisle
to the Senate.
When the successors of Czrr'lisle and
Wilbur are chosen there will be twenty-
one new members. If the House sup—
ports the committee, Langston will sue-
ceed Venable, Kernagban will succeed
Morgan, and McDaflie wrll supplant Tur-
pin, and then the number of new men in
the House will be swelled to the unprece-
dented figure of twentydhree.
Delegate Geo. A. Matthews, of Dakota,
was not unsealed, and yet he was forced
to relinquish an office he Would have been
glad to have continued to hold. 110 was
a delegate in Congress from March to
December, 1880, but never sat in the
House. ,
Frank '1‘. Fitzgerald, of New York,
drew .‘2,500 as a member of Congress
from March to December and never took
his seat.» He preferred the position on the
bench to which he was elected last fall,
and hisrcsignation gave Iceman Turner :1
chance to be heard in the House. Senator
Allen, of WashingtOn, was elected dele-
gate in 1888, drew the salary from March
to December, but after admission be 0011-
cluded to take the chanCes on a Senator-
ship rather than to run again for the
House. He guessed right, and now sits
in the Senate.
.Bright Amos Cummings, 111 one of his
entertaining letters from the floor of the
House, gives this pleasant notice of our
Hartford member: “A good talker among;
the republicans is Hon. Wm. E. Simonds,
of Connecticut, the successor of Hon.
Robert J. Vance. Simonds very appro-
priately landed on the committee on pat-
ents. He is a patent lawyer. When he
made his first speech everybody in the
House was startled. He has a deep
baritone voice, so heavy that it jarred the
heart of every listener. Vance tells a
good story on Simonds. He says that
- Simonds once had a case before Judge
Park at Hartford. On the day set for its
consideration. Simonds was in Meriden.
He telegraphed to Park asking for a post-
ponement. upon the ground that he was
unable to reach the court room in Hart-
ford in time. Park returned this answer:
‘Go on with your argument. I can hear
you where you are just as well as if you
were here.’ 7’
ANOTHER eorrrrrorr'r BILL.
The House committee on patentshas
ordered. a favorable report on a bill intro-
duced by Representative Simonds, which
is identical with the international copy-
right bill already acted upon adversely by
the House, with the addition 'Of a new
section which provides that it shall be of
effect only where reciprocal advantages
are granted by foreign countries to Ameri-
can authors. This means in effect that we
Americans won’t steal from foreign arr—
thors only in cases where some foreign
country permits theft from us. This is a
high average standard for congressional
morality.

Representative McCreary, of Kentucky,
has introduced a bill to provide for a sur-
vey to be made for the construction of
an intercontinental railway to connect
North and South America. The bill
authorizes the President to rrrvite the
several governments of Mexico, Central
and South America to cojoperate with this
government in the appointment of an in-
ternational commission to examine the
routes, costs and advantages, and to best
make a proper survey ,for a railway be-
tween the southern republics and the
United States. This intercontinental com-
mission of engineers is to meet in Wash-
ington as soon as practicable.
THE FLAG WILL wavn.
On gala occasions there has always been
a flag flying from the staff on the Grand
Army buildings here, but the colors were
hauled down when the holiday was over
and remained down until the next fcstal
day. Now the national emblem waves
all daylong audcvcry day. An enthusi-
astic comrade presented the department
of the Potomac with the hunting and it is
the settled purpose of 'thc local veterans
to have the flag waving continuously.
Here is a patriotic hint for Buckingham
and Douglas Fowler Posts, of Norwalk.
President Harrison, taking the hint, has
directed that the flag of our country shall
hereafter fly over the executive mansion
from sunrise to sunset instead, as now, of
being hoisted only on legal holidays. The
flag will fly on Sundays as well as week
days. The custom of flying “old glory”
overall the public school houses here has
become quite universal.

In no part‘of the Union is this anniver-
sary so zealously and largely honored as
itishcrc. 'DeWitt C. Sprague, of Con-
necticut, is to recite an original war lyric
at Arlington, and Miss Potter, once the
popular elocrrtionist at the Darien board-
ing school, is to recite at the soldiers’
borne. A large excursion party, under
the direction of Colonel Batchelder, the
historian, goes from here to Gettysburg
on that day.

Sensible Advertismg.
For a cheap, sensible and cifectivelnethod
of advertising, commend us to the S‘ent‘irrcl’s
“Classified Busrness Directory.” Here, in a
space of from one, to not exceeding eight
lines, the advertiser virtually places his bits-
iness sign board, under the eyes of fully one-
half the enterprising purchasing classes of
Norwalk’s population, every secular day of
the year. He may have closed up his place
of business for the day, yet hundreds of
those whose patronage he craves, are that
moment sitting around the family reading
table conning over his brief and yet entirely
intelligible newspaper announcement. The
cost probably does not exceed a dime a Week
for the shortest of these ads, while the larg-
In what way can any prudent, sensible busi-
ness man, make so little money go so far in
practical effective returns for his expendi-
ture ‘3 In this connection the Sentinel
recently referred to the disinclination of the
medical fraternity to placing their ads in
this general business directory for fear it
would subject them to the criticism of
adopting quack methods, deemed by many
of the ablest and best of the profession, to be
“unprofessional.” Amoment’s consideration,
ought to drive such a fallacy out 01" any sex:-
siblc brain. There is a vast difference
between a reputable physician placing a
modest card in a reputable newspaper',giving
simply his name and residence, and tele—
phone call, to a charlatan boastingly an-
nostrum, and promising
A physician’s
nouncing some
ridiculous, impossible cures.
card in a newspaper is as legitimate and
proper as placing his name upon the. plate
on the door of his residence. Nor are these
professional gentlemen always aware of the
service they may render the public as well
as themselves, by srrclr a newspaper an-
nouncement. It is but a few days since,
that the writer was halted at the corner of
lVall street and Belden avenue, by a well
dressed and apparently intelligent man. who
asked if we could direct him to the residence
of Dr. Gregory. Now no citizen in all Nor-
walk is better or more favorable known than
he. He was born and has always lived here.
His honored and saluted father occupiedfor
years the family mansion on Main street,
now the home of the worthy son. Yet sur—
prising as it may appear, here was a man
supposably a resident of Norwalk and re—
quiring his professional services, who did
not know the way to Dr. Gregory’s house.
\Vhat possible difference can there be in the
highest estimate of professional dignity: or
methods, between a physician putting a Sign
.11 or over or beside his door and puttingthe
same litres in a reputable newspaper going
into the states, offices and households of the
vicinity where he practices? Surely 'no
sensible man can discern any good reason
for discriminating against the card in the
newspaper.
G-en. Merwin Willing.
A Hartford Courant reporter has inter-
viewed Lieut.-Gov. Merwin on the subject
of the governor-ship. “I am acandidate
for the nomination,” said Gen. Merwin,
“so far as thrs, that if I received the honor
I shall except it. I am nct seeking the
position, but if it comes to Inc, I shall take
it and shall hope to receive the endorse-
ment of my fellow citizens. I am aware
that my name is being considered in
various parts of the state. Of course,
when a man is being talked about in such
a matter he must bear it. When ‘my
friends have .come to me on the subject I
have told them just what I tell you new,
and so I have no objection to your stating
the fact, if you consider it a matter“ of
public interest.”
Being asked what was his view of the
prospect politically in the state Gen. Mer'-
win said : ”I consider the outlook for
Republican success good. - There is a pos-
sibility of an election by the people, but
there IS no reason why the Legislature
should not be Republican by a handsome
majority.”

Call a Halt.
Perhaps if the open bar in the House
restaurant were closed the scenes on the
floor of that body would not be quite so
wild and weird. It is asserted on all sides
that any one can walk up to the counter
of that restaurant and get a drink of Mug-
wump whiskey, which is said by all topers
to be by all odds the vilcst stuff that flows.
At all events it it be .true that liquor is
sold there it is a disgrace to the countr r,
and the sooner those who have the power
to do so, put a stop to It, the better.
All parties should unite in giving pro-4
tection to the elbow-crooking statesman.

‘ NEW PUBLICATIONS.
A curious story about a story 13 told in
connection with “A Frankenstein Family,”'
by the Rev. John Bradley Gilman, which
is to be published in Harper’s Bazaar May
2911]. The central conceit in Dr. Bradley’s
tale is identical with that in Rev. Edward
Everett Hale’s recent extravaganza, “Su—
san’s Escort.” Before the latter story was
* published in the May number of Harper’s
lllctgazr‘ne, Dr. Bradley and Dr. Hale hap-
pened one day to Compare notes about
their literary work, and discovered that
the same idea for the basis of a short story
had occured to both of them about the
same time The coincidence ends, how-
ever, with the idea. The development of
the idea in bath stories is altogetherfils-
similar. '

on “Glasgow, 21 Study in Municipal GOV-

nlew York,
May 26th, 1890.
When you buy a garment
and find that it frays, rips or
fades, what do you do—stay
away frém the dealer thereaf-
ter, or first give him a chance
to make it right? .
Whoever he is, the latter is
the right course to follow.-
Thcn if he “weakens” you
know where not: to deal next
time.
There is much poor clothing
sold, and people keep trying
different dealers to find one
that is dependable.
We make our clothing to
stand reasonable, and we on-
courage ‘our customers to
bring us their disappointments;
first, that we may stand the.
loss, if there is any; and sec-
ondly, that, learning the de-
fects, we may know how to
avoid them and make better
clothes thereafter.
Free deliveries to all points within one hun-
dred miles of New York crty.
