oan majorities and splitting up the situa-
tion Tho meaning is as plain as If one
should walk through the Conemaugb Tal-
ler after the Johnstown flood and say
There has been a flood It was the re-
volt of the people against the plutocrats
The McKinley bill with the unheard of
doctrine that protection was a thing in
and of itself to be maintained for itself
as the permanent economic policy of this
country instead of a temporary tax for
the purpose of fostering lufautjnrtustries
to bo withdrawn when these were estab-
lished this monstrous doctrine sprung
upon the people like the swindle of a
threecard tnotite game was assaulted
with every weapon that lay within the
reach of a free people Tho determina-
tion to protest against the tyranny ot
taxing one man for the benefit of another
man found voice here nnd it will grow
and strengthen It la not a question of
per cents but principle Is not a theory
but a moral truth that a man has a-
right to be free of taxation except for
public purposes The assault on the
proposition that any mnu baa a right to
fine another If he buys certain goods has
begun Protection must justify Itself
Free trade is a truth It is uot in dis-
pute any more than nny freedom is If
one proposes to interfere with that free-
dom and put a p nulty on It lining a
man tor indulging in it be must show

mitted to as any tnx Is but only for as

Tnetvn Apostle of Itetorm
6t Louis Republic
Senator Cockrells hearty apprornl of
the Republics plan of tariff reform Is
another gratifying evidence of its feasl
billty and popularity Though we hare
heard publicly from men like Messrs
Vest Cookrell and Springer we have
heard nothing except hearty commenda-
tion of the plan nor do we expect any-
thing elee except from those who are
either openly or stcretlr in favor of
maiutaiuing the McKinley tariff of
abominations
The plan is so simnle that it can bo un
tiiriu exactions and make something be derstood at once by all eren by those
whn uWered the tariff

i
sides HI calculations all tell to the
i question as a nhole It involves nothing
ground under the withering tariff blight more tljan a numler of separate bills
that invaded all sections alike He be j each dealing with a single article of
came in time poorer and poorer nnd if I fade now controlled by monopolies
he will look back to say Connecticut
he will find that according to official
estimates made by the state board of
statistics or tho labor bureau the aver-
age annunl return of n farm proprietor
of that state is only SIS132 while the
nverage annual wages of a farmhand Is
S31 n B The conditions East and West
are similar Looses or inadequate re
iurns everywhere If there existed in
this country nn oppressive monarch
with primogeniture a lnnded aristoo
I No general bill would
be iutrodut ed
Each of these separate bills would stand
ou Its own merits just as did the single
bill which put quinine on tho free list
broke down the quinine monopoly nnd
reduced the price of the drug trom prices
ranging as high as SI an ounce to prices
ranging as low as forty cents
Iu suggesting a somewhat indefinite
number of such antitrust bills we spoke
of a dozen > epariite measures aud
Congressman Springnr chnsteued them
for us as The Twelve Apostles of
Kefortn Below we give theta tenta-
tively
1 Froo binder twine
2 Free cotton ties
3 Free worsteds for men and womens
clothing
4 Free agricultural implements and
edged tools
5 Free blankets
C Free coal
7 Free tin nnd tlnplntes
8 Free silverbearing led oro to rees-
tablish our trade with Mexica
3 Free lumber
10 A reduction to the revenue
only basis on table and kitchen ware
11 Free white lend and paints
VJ Free barbed wire and wiro rods for
fences
We doubt if a single one of theae bills
could be defeated by the senate The
Hepu lican senators from Western states
have learned a great deal since the Mc-
Kinley bill was framed Pennsylvania
would of course resist the free coal bill
but New England would support it So
too would Illiuoa and Ohio if it
con
fcttJWPn a reciprocity clause girlng our
Western ooal a chance to get Into our
section of Canada in exchange for gir
ing New England free coal from Nora
Scotia The White Lead trust the Bin-
der Twine trust the Edged Tool trust
and the other monopolies thus attacked
would of courso use their combined lu-
ll ue ncc against each aud all of the bills
but failing of the sectional support they
are reinforced by on a general reform
mensuru they would not be able to de-
feat the strong Western demand for re-
form
So we send out these twelre Apostles
on their reform mission contldent that
their work will not bo a fruitless one
The best part of the plan however Is
that it prescribes nothing except that
each article shall be dealt with in its own
bill

re
llgious feasts the first being All Saints
Day greatly obserred ln this city by
solemn high mass in tho cathedral
Many relics of saints were exposed to
view during thla day in the cathedral
nnd other churches Some of the re-
mains seemed of yesterday so fresh and
lifelike did they appear and so grea1
was the crown in the cathedral that cir-
culation wos impossible One had to
peaceably await the pleasure of the
crowd and drift away with it The next
day was All Soul Day but being a
Sunday the church postponed it until the
next day giying the Mexicans an extra
fenstday to ihelr great delight The
Meroado de Flore tlower market whh h
adjoins the cathedral also the garden
which encircles it ufforded a curious
bight Wreaths crosses hearts and
bouquets of great beauty were offered
for sale by the Indians Their taste in
nrranging aud blending colors is some-
thing remarkable The flowers were of
every vnricty wild and cultivated and
one could admire them for half a day
and still find new kinds The white llow
ers predominated Among them tho
cnlla aud water lilies played nn Import-
ant part us they grow everywhere
They also had
WUKATHS OF VITn ORASS
and autumn leaves The grass is both
white and pink and has a leathery and
delicate appearance
But tho greatettof these feast days was
Monday the day of Ihe dead At t a-
in the street cars and couches began
their work It it not exaggeration to
say that over twothirds of Mexicos pop-
ulation visited tho cemeteries or ns they
are here styled by the tar prettier name
of Pantheon The cars and coaches hud
doubled the rates and toward the middle
of the day as many na eighty were piled
in one street car Beiuy warned of the
crush br friends I arulled myself of tho
early morning llrst risitiug San Fer-
nando where most nil of Mexicos illus-
trious men are burled It was nicely
decorated but bh many years bare passed
since anyone has been buried there it
cannot be compared to the burial grounds
of the present time for decoration Next
was the pantheon of Dolores which is
about a league from the city It is beau-
tifully situated aud contains many beau-
tiful tombs Artillcial as well as natural
flowers had been larishly used in decor
atiug the tombs Lastly 1 rislted the
Piednd French cemetery which is about
two miles from the city It is at present
one of the most beautiful us well as most
fashionable cemeteries of the city The

to be able to bury their families in It
It is scrupulously neat and nothing can
surpass its beauty It is almost entirely
planted with cypres and the beautiful
eucalyptus which seems to almost reach
the heavens Some of the monuments
are magnlllcent iu richness and archi-
tecture At the end of the middle alley
is the chapel which is not yet com-
pleted It is iu the gothio style and
when completed will be of great beauty
A temporary altar has been erected and
mass wae celebrated ln It on that day
It was well adorned of course in som
bre colors with wreaths of cypres Inter-
mingled with lilies The singing was of
the best as some of the Italian troop
now in the city had lent their voices
Nothing can describe the solemnity of
the services under that rootless church
The moaning of the wind among tbnso
beautiful trees and the songs of the
birds Hitting from tomb to tomb lent a
grandeur to the whole which I am uu
able to describe In the cemetery are
monuments erected to the memory of the
soldiers and officers killed in the war be-
tween France aud Mexico Here the
decorations surpassed thoseof the others
Some tomb were eutirely covered with
flowers Many a wreath cost from 100
to 200 but ull that display does not
touch the heart as the grave whose only
monument was simple flowers which
thanks to the fertility of the soil grow
in tbo greatest profusion and without
any care in death

are equal but it seems as if rlralry and
vanity still hold their part eren in such
a sad and sacred spot as a cemetery
About a quarter of a mile from the Pie
dad U the church which bears the same
name It also served as a monastery
About the middle ot the Seventeenth
century so the story goes there wus iu
Home a monk of the Dominican order
who had been charged by the prelate of
the monastery to which he belonged in
Mexico to hare painted by one of the
best artists then in Koine a picture of
he rirgin with the dead Christ When
be monk was about to depart for Mexico
be asked for the picture but tho artist
had only drawn the outlined Nererthe
less the monk took this with him uud
journeying through Spain took ship for
Mexico As be and bis companioua
sailed weatward a dreadful tempest
arose and there seemed to be no doubt
but ull would be lost In this frightful
danger they made a row to the rirgin
thut In return for her protection they
would build her a church in Mexico and
that the picture which they carried of
her would bo there enshrined The rir
gin heurd their prayer and their desti-
nation was reached without further
peril On their arrlral they collected
alms and so built the church of Ln
Pledad Another miracle was In store
for them for when the picture which
the monk hud carried from Rome was
opened in Mexico behold It was not the
simple outline but
A MOST BEAUTIFUL TICTUKE
entirely completed and the miraculous
picture hangs orrr the main altar of the
church of La Pledad aud to this day is
greatly rent rated The church was
dedicuted February 2 1G52 Iu addition
to this picture are several notable ones
by the Mexican artists Belasquez and
Cahera nnd a rery curious picture rep
ienling the storm at sea which was stilled
by the Virgins interrention
A most curious sight was offered to
those journeying to the Panteoues Near
them were Indiana celliug their various
dishes aud also their beloved drink the
pulque Nothing teemed more disgust
tug than the low class drinking and
making merry and In their mirth pro
fnuing the close proximity of those
sacred resting places Every year until
this oue the Pluza de Armes bad been

erected little tents and sold most every-

Lexington Ky Press Nov 3
Under the lottery law framed by con-
gress and the instructions given by the
postmastergeneral to his subordinates
throughout the country there is serious
danger of encroachments on the libt rty
of the press that should be rebuked aud
opposed by the newspapers of the coun-
try without regurd to party lines
These postmasters ure instructed to net
as ceiihors uud iuopect ull seioudclas
matter and whenever the postmaster
flnds what he considers unlawful mutter
or even suspects that articles are of that
character he is authorized to suppress
the publication and refuse it passage
through tilt niaili
This dangeiiius innorntlon Is claimed
under the specious pretext of suppressing
lottery advertisements and so fur the
public seems to aciiuiese without a pro-
test against this new aisuiiiptiou of
power If this step meets with popular
taror then the next move will be to e
