THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: WEDNESDaY Gctover 3, 1NBs. together. <—me ‘Mr. Morton’s letter of paign. Nacuralyy, it devotes the greatest share of Ms space and the Best of Ite logic 0 "he discussion Of the tariff as the main issue in coutroversy. Here its engactation of the difference between protection and free trade will be satisfactory enouga to the republicans, as it is Dased not only on familiar economic principles but on the expe- a dora ot sa active business career of years, which ought to count {or some- thing. But democrats and tariff reforwers Tri question the sincerity of nis plea that it is “easily withia the wisdom of Congress to adjust the national Income to the national expenditure without sacrificing or even ‘an indus. (rial gystem which has brought untold advan- tages to the entire country.” Thai is precively, ‘they claim, What the Milis bill was designed \o do, and yet Mr. Morton and his party are devoung their whole attention, in and out of Congress, to the defeat of that measure without offering any Other and wiser one as a substitute for it. ‘The republican vice-presidential candidate, as might naturally be expected from the fact that he hails trom the southern district of New York state, 4 a very easy-going and conservative protectionist, more after the type of the late President Arthur than that of Mr. Blaine, for example. He would ave Deen better satisfied with the Tepublicaa ‘tariff plank of 1884, without doubt, than with its ‘More radical successor; and his letter bristles ‘with reminders that he belleves the tariff to need Tevision and readjustment, aad tat the revenues ‘Must be reduced in some way. On the whole, Mr. ‘Morton's acceptance will not create a sensation ‘anywhere. It will not be regarded by his enemies ag a very dangerous weapon against them, or by his friends as doing much to help weir cause —— -——____ Some persons, who are not accustomed toreason about these matters, are cursing the speculators im the Chicago wheat pit for the rise that has Just taken place in une price of domestic flour, The Chicago “corner,” as has been shown in these col- Umas, has prouuced no such effect. But the short agein the crops all over the world has accom- plished what no Murry in speculation possibly could, and the smailer bakers in New York and Other large cities have begun to shave the weight Of their loaves iu order to keep the profits of their Dusiness at a living figure. Of course, 1t will De to the interest of graia-dealers aod flour-merchants {0 alarm the public as to the prospecis of afurther increase 1a prices, $0 as vo induce large purchases at present rates, It is possible, however, that the bulk of the people will fad another way out of their difficulty. The corn crop ts the largest ever knows in this country. Corn, in its various forms coarse hominy, samp and meal, 1s a staple Of food among the people of various parts of the South where wheat is Little used; ani sturdier ‘specimens of physical manhood cannot be found, the world over, than these same corn-fed country- men of ours, Everything made frow cora ouzht, by rights, to be cheaper this season than it ever has been, Tnis is nature’s compensation for the comparative failure of the wheat crop. Our poorer Peopie cannot do bevter than avail themselves of i They adjust the conditions of tnetr Lives to other changes from tue normal standaris, and it Will De quite possible for them to do so in this in stance. A good many of their richer neignbors have learned to do so of their own free will, since discovering what delicious dishes can be cooked from corm. In this way the overproduction of one cereal may be made to supplement the under- Production of another, and the food balance be Maintained without an increase of cost or & loss of Comiort 10 the average consumer. —————- = ___ ‘Tet natural that the question should oecur to Many winds, on reading of the outrageous rrauds ‘Which have been perpetrated on the peopl: ia the disguise of a District improvement, in connection ‘with the acqueduct, which ts now in process of in- Vestigaiion, whose purse must bear the losses? Certainly, no argument can be framed for tasten- ing the burden on the District tax-payers, They have not only had no share in the choice of Superintendents of the tunnel enterprise, but they buve not even enjoyed the privilege of ‘& respectful hearing to their energetic protests agaiust the way the work was being managed. Whatever wrong bas occurred has been in distinct deflance of their remonstrances, and they cannot with any Justice be neld accountable for a stugis mistake. They did not pian tue scheme or endorse 3 Tuey did not furnish the superintendem or endorse him. On the contrary, they have re- sorved to every means left toa community with- Out votes to a¥oid or avert what his now de- Yeloped into a noisome scandal; and they deserve neith-f ay part of the disgrace, nor any share of ‘the Mnancial load wita which somebody must be ‘Saddied hen ali the work has to be done over. ‘The government of the United States 1s the Proper party to bear this loss, asit has had the ‘Management of tue whole matter from the begin- ing and nas exercised Its authority without con- ‘Sideration of any sort for Lhe wishes of the people Of the District. If, after what bas happened, tue government is any wiser for its experience, the Yeast that can be done by way of recompense to | 3 the swindiea taxpayers is the establishment of a free Water service for domestic consumers, 2 —__ Although Washington ts alway giad to have Congress with her, and would even welcome such change in the Constitution as would invoive per- petual sessions with only occasional recesses, she shares tne desire of other taxpaying communities that the sessions shall be real sessions and not a mere pretence. As it 1s now, Congress remains at the Capitol not Deeause there is anything to do, Or, Indeed, anything that can be done in the abvence of @ quorum from the House, but Decause the two parties are playing at hide and seek, and ther representatives, regardiess Of thew duty to thelr constituents, which is plainly to do some work or suu: up shop, continue the farce of meeting once a day and going through the form of “proceedings” to furnish matter for the Record. Jn the milleunium we shall bave, in the balls of Congress, steady work, no merely for effect, lveral measures where large ends are to be gained and strict economy where expenditures are a mere waste of the nation’s substance, and quorums in both houses all the time, The sessions can be as long as anyone de. sires them, for there is always pleaty to do, if our lawmakers would oaly do 1 ———— ‘The Mormons are invading Mexico, and excikement prevails among certain Gentiles in the southwest lest Ube people of ou neighbor republic should become infected Witu some of the wicked. ese wuich the imm.grants are supposed to carry Sround with them wherever they go.
