' Public Printer. Con. eerntn; Patents. JOCBNAI, DURRAr, Wabiiixqtox. D. C, April 2. j The House has finished its work on the tariff biil and sent the, measure ovn to the Senate, where It will necessaril fte dealt with In a manner differing widely from its treatment in a body hav ing a Republics majority and a cloturi rule. There was less excitement durinr cbe closing hours nnd flnal vote upon thi iU in the House than was expected, al though the proceedings were far fron resembling a Quaker meeting. That nany who voted for the amendment which was adopted, making the duties imposed by the new tariff bill collectable upon all foreign goods ordered aftei April 1, believing the amendment to b unconstitutional, is certain; but some oi them- say they were in doubt about it and felt justifiod in giving our own man dfactures the benefit of (lie doubt, be lieving that it will result in althost en tirely stonDing the importation of good upon which duties have been materinll; raised until It becomes known wha those duties will be when the hill pr.ssn t'le Senate. There was a decision by thi Supreme Court in connection witli thi present tnriff law affecting this ver point, but is seems capa'ilc of being con Urued both ways. At any rate, it is licin: construed both ways. It is probable however' that the amendment will liav the desired effect, a Importers tiro like! to he afraid to take the risk of makin arge purchases when uncertain wha luty they will have to pay on them. President McKinlcy's appointment r Mtr Frank W. Palmer to be Pulili- Printer shows that it is more u ciiiealioi pull" than rules when it comes t. making appointments. Mr. Palmer heh this position under the Harrison, mini in istration, and it was only the o(he da. chat Mr. McKinley told an "ex" who wa ifter his old office that ha had adopted . rule not to appoint men who held olh'o under the Harrison almiiiUtra(ion, in less there was extraordinary reasons (i loing so. The "extraordinary reasons' n Mr. Palmer's case were the Influentic men who asked for his appointment, am every "ex" who can bring forward th tame sort of rcnsonsis likely to be takci care of, notwithstanding the President' rule. Senator Allen didn't wait until tli tariff bill got before the Senate lo mak tariff speech. He made one this wee of about an hour, on his resolution di claring it to lie unconstitutional to in pose tariff taxes on the necessities daily consumption in order fo enrich cei tain favored classes at the expense of th asses Mr. Allen's speech was- legt rather than political, as may be see from the following extract therefrom: ' place myself on the solid and imprct nable ground that under our Conelllutio Congress does not possess powrr to ta the people to enhance the private foi tunes of the few, and that the full mea are of tho taxlnz power is reached wlie tariff for revenue, with Incidental pn tection, is imposed. Any other construi . tion would lead to confiscation and inci dentally to enforced repudiation, the tw worst forms of anarchy aud disorder i civilized state; and such a deduction. when carried to its legitimate Icngtl', would lead to the subversion of all ord and the rights of persons and property We cannot serve ths people, and tin money power at the same time. Theii interests are deadly sntagonistlc. Whai for the common welfare Is agalnti the trusts and pools." ' , Even as genial an old gentleman a Uncle Sam objects to being made to ap pear as a side partner in a lottery scheme conducted by those who claim to be ei . gaged In the business of procuring t b. patents for inventors. The bill Intro dueed by Senator Ilansbrough, "to prt vent Inventors and others from being di oelved and defrauded by alleged pnten attorneys," is a Step towards clearinj Uncle Sam of the suspicions of coiinten ancing lottery methods after havlnj driven ; the big lotteries out of tin country.' It mak-s it Illegal for any Dei sons or firm engaged in procuring pa1 ents, under penalty pt a hcvy" fine oj imprisonment to offer or award any giii or prise as an Inducement for inventon to enter any alleged competition, and U further protect the C. 8.

A Populist statement signed by all the Senators and Representatives of thi party, issued this week, shows that they stand about where the silver republican Senators do on the tariff bill. They will endeavor to secure amendments in tin interest of their constituents, in the Sen ate, but to emphasize, their belief that no sort of a tariff will cure our troubles thej may decline lo voteat all when tin.' bill it uponjtB final passage. This adds to tht certainty that tWe will be no trouble about passing the tariff bill when it vaches a final vote in the Senate. THE STATE CAPITAL. insnriiic Public Standing;, dnlea ol Fertllliers.
