} 4 a Harrison and the McKinley Law. The Cinciuzati “Commercial Ga | zette” denies an assertion made by) somebody that “Gen. Harrison op- posed the adopting of schedules as high as those in the McKinley bill, | and that he entered a protest against them to these who had the matter | That paper declaaes | in charge.” that “ex-President Harrison de- serves neither censure nor praise on account of the McKinley tarift law. He took no part in the drafting of or consideration of the measure. No feature of the law, so far as those who compiled it are aware, repre- sented his particular views or met with his specific disapproval. Re- peatedly when asked by those draft ing the bill what he thought of it,he stated that the details should be left to those in charge of the meas- ure; that they were responsible to the people and were most familiar with the subjects in hand.” This statement is probably cor- rect. Probably also, it is made in Harrison’s interest. Yet it will not help Harrison. He signedthe Mc Kinley bill, and in speeches after- terward he defended it asa law. His direct responsibilty for it goes this farand no farther. Nobody expected him to veto it, or to condemn it in the canvasses of 1890 and 1892 when it was the chief issue. Cleveland, who is a much more courageous man than Harrison, would not do any- thing of this kind. Cleveland hated the Wilson-Gorman tariff as ardently as any Republican in the country did the McKinley law, yet he did not veto it, although he refused to sign it. He said nothing against it in the Congressional canvass in 1894, nor will he in the Presidential canvass of 1896. This much of concession to party interests is exacted from every man chosen ‘to av important office by a party vote. But Harrison could have made the McKinley bill take a different shape from that which it had when it reached his hand. Of course Presi- dents have nothing directly to do with the framing of bills, but the wishes of every President are in some degree, consulted by the fram- ers. Every man who has sufficient influence to get a Presidential nomi- nation and election can, if he desires make this influence felt by his party in the committee room and on the floor of Congress. Cleveland, Grant and many other Presidents did this. It is to Harrison’s discredit that he did not use this influence in avert- ing or correcting the extravagances aud absurdities of the McKinley bill Sagacious and and courageous Republican papers all over the country saw and pointed out the follies and iniquities of that measure as they revealed themselves as they took shape. when there was ample time to re move them, and warned the party that this madness, if persisted in, Secretary Blaine,reading the signs of the times, improyed the bill in one or two particulars, but Harrison continu- ed to the end atolidly deaf and blind A word ef remon- strance from him'privately or public- ly given to framers of the bill at any time in the months in which it was before Congress would have chang- ed the measure and have saved the party,but that word was not spoken. To this degree Harrison shares with MeKinley the responsibility for the McKinley law and it is vain for him to expect to escape the penalty.— would lead to disaster. tothe danger. Globe Democrat.

He insisted that he} had lost all the money, having dealt largely through stock and bond com-| mission houses. The fact that the robbery was systematically perpetrated under the very eyas of the of the officers and that the defalcation so far ex- ceeds the sum first announced has created consternation now that it is known that the stock is wiped out and nothing will be saved to the stockholders.

Stuckey, cashier of the State bank, is missing and with him $15,000 of the bank’s cash. He iocked the safe and closed the bank as usual last evening and everything was sup- posed to be allright. He did net putin an appearance at his accus- tomed time this morning, howeyer, and when the safe was opened it was discovered that all the bills of large denominations and all of the geld coin was gone. Investigation showed that he had not occupied his room at his residence last night and further search failed to disclose his whereabouts. The police were sum- moned and they are confident of catching Stuckey. They think the great bulk of the gold, $2,500, will help in detecting him, as it will be hard to conceal. For some time past Stuckey has been leading a fast life and it is theught he was living beyond his means. The bank officials say the defalcation will in no way affect the solvency of the bank, as it is pretected bya bond ef $20,000. Importing Mexican Hemp. Boston, Mass., October 17.—The largest cargo of Mexican hemp ever brought to this port has arrived on the British steamship Vimeira from Progresso, Mexico. The Vimeira is a vessel completed on the Clyde only last month. She sailed from Glasgow directly for Progresso, where she was loaded for her pres ent trip. The new ship is built of steel and registered 1,745 tons net, and 2,710 tons gross. She is 300 feet in length, 42 feet beam and 19 feet depth of hold. The Vimeira has been chartered by the Steamship Co., of New York, and $36,850, and with $31,000 in gilt! will make several trips to this port. edge paper missing.

L.Tucker- Munson | Must bea Christian, Constantinuple, October 16.—Said Pasha has accepted the scheme for reform in Armenia drawn up by Great Britain, France and Russia, and it now awaits the signature of the Sultan. The scheme is almost identical with the proposais of last May which, in substance, were that the Governors and Vice-Govyernors of Van, Erzeroum, Sivas, Bitlis, Kartut and Trebizond, be Chiistian or Mussulman, according to the in- clination of the population; but either the Governor or the Vice- Governor is to be a Christian, and the appointment are to be confirmed by the Powers. The local and not State officials are to collect the taxes and enough money is to be retained befere it is forwarded to Constanti- nople to pay the expenses of local administratien. Complete changes will be made in the judicial system, torture will be abolished and the prisons will be under surveillance; the police will be composed of Christians and Turks equally and the laws against com- pulsory conversions to Islamism will be strictly enforced. _The Ambassadors ef the Powers expeet that the whole questien will be finally settled during the course of the week by the promulgation of an imperial decree. Contrary to general expectation, the high com- missioner, who will be eharged with the execution of this scheme of re- form must be a Christian. This was the hardest pill for the Porte to| swallow, and for a long time it threatened to bring about the most serious complications. | A Household Treasure. 3 D. W. Fuller, ot Canajoharie, N.

Campbell as can be plain- ly seen by his opening speech in Columbus is a plain practical citizen who knows the wants of the state. “He wears neither frills nor feath- ers, nor does he shine in the meretri- cious glitter of great wealth. He is one of the plain people. He did not seek the nomination for governor, dered to him he accepted it with be- coming diflidence and modesty. “He is under obligations to no one—to no faction—to no clique— for the nomination. That is not only to his honor but to his advant- age. “He hasn't issued a prospectus in seven giowing colors with a view of catching voter. In fact, he isn’t traveling on a prospectus, but on a record that is open to every one. He will be again triumphantly elected by the people,and the record of his second, like his firsi term as governor, will be an enviabie one, and he, will step from the offiee of governor into the presidency of the United States. The business men are for him because he is a real prac- tical business man. Citizens gener- ally, young and old, are for him, be- cause he is safe reliable and square, and everybody else, as well as those named, are for him because he is plain, genial and brilliant Jimmy Campbell.” The populist leaders in this state held a meeting at Kansas City Mon- day to discuss their future policy.
