Tim IIotsE oi liepri'Sonlulives is
9t lust considering aud disi-Ufising
'lie now tariff bill. On last Monday
.i.e democrats vrero able to muster
til a quorum, and although the re
publicans refesnd to vot, with the
hope of broakir.g tho quorum, yet a
r (.'Solution was adopted, by a vote of
1S3 to 1, to proi oi d with the consid
eration ol the Wilijon t a rill' bill und
close the discussion on the 29lh ol
thin month. Air. Wilson opened the
d'nlo Monday with a carefully pre
jiiired and very convincing speech,
and no doubt inuny able speeches
will Lo made during tbo progress of
.Iiin grec debate. Night sessions
will bo hei 1 in addition to the day
swsioim, ami a thorough discussion ol
Ji3 tarilF questiou will bo liad.
iVhilo many democratic lU'prcsen-

In certain provisions ol' the bill, yet
wo think that the House will pas
liy u good majority. Tho only
,tr is in th Somite, where the
Joiiioeratie majority is very small
ami preoarioiis, but wo have an abi
ding laith that the Senate alno will
pass it, and the sooner tho better.

who were absent without a proper
excuse. Wo rogrot to note that
among theso absentees were several
from this State, but we hopo that
they were unavoidably absent and
cau render proper excuses. At a
time when the country demands
speedy action on the taritf bill it is
outrage that a quorum could not
be ubtained iu the House even to
consider it. Of course the republi
cans are directly responsible for this,
becauso enough ol them were pres
ent to make a quorum and they re
';!sed to vole, but this does not re
lease the absent democrats from
Micir failure to do their duty.
Tin: Hawaiian question is being
eagerly and persistently pressed in
both branches of Congress by re
publicans, not for the purpose ol
helping tho people ot that troubled
uuu.cj
ope ot
iiistr-i-
island but with the partisan I
annoying a democratic adinini
lion. It does seem outrimoous tiiat
republican partisanship should so
tar sink all patriotism, as to neglect
the important measures now needed
!o relieve our people in order to
'tke up the time of Congress iu con
sidering the condition ot the lar
away island of Hawaii ! Charity
begins at home, and our own people
need rebel more than Hawaiian. Let
tho Hawaiians settle thoirown trou
bles, and let Congress give relief to
tho people ol the United States.

thus "All's well that ends well"
It is said that now there will be
no further opposition lo the speedy
'confirmation ol Collector Simmons
c; It 18 both silly und unjust to hold
the democratic party responsible for
WS presoDtcondition ol the country,
and yet many prejudiced people are
bitterly denouncing Cleveland and
'he democratic party lor it. Why?
, What has Mr. Cleveland or the dem
ocratic parly done to causo these
hartl times? .Nearly everybody will
admil that Congressional legislation
has caused it, and all this legislation
was enacted before Cleveland's cloc

The Di kmno of the World's Fair
buildings, on last Monday night,
and the destruction of tho famed
"White City" seems peculiaily sad,
especially to all persons who were

sudden deslrCttion of such stupend

While the children are being edu-
j cated, thousands of their parents are
taking out separate farms under the
allotment law, aud abandoning tho
old tribal system of life and govern

ended, largely through ihe reluming

Tho Indians have bc-eu more fairly
