FWltoss's First Steamboat,

A correspondent of the Geneva Courier
relates the following story Of the Kate Nor.
gan, the little steamer which for more than
generation has piled on Cayugs Lake, l;sr
owners obey,ng the behests Of the first pro-
prietor, to run her till she busts."
Before the Chancellor Livingstone stem
! med the current of the Hudson, yet after the
Clermolt had stirred in the Auieter waters
of the Collect Pond, the whistle of the Kate
Morgan awoke the echoes IN Taughanic
Glen, and her paddle wheel dashed the spray
upon Cayug. bridge. There is bit OF ro-
nance attached to her name and building.
Old General Morgan, of Revolutionary
fame, had noble estate on the eastern bank
Of the lake, not far from where the present
Wells College now stands. Between his
only daughter, lovely girl Of eighties, and
Fulton, had long existed . tender attach.
ment, which, however, the poverty and OBJ
scurity of Robert led the General to severely
frown upon. Fulton went to New York.
He labored long years in perfecting his in.
vention; his day Of triumph came, and then
he wrote to the stern father relating his sue
cess and asking for the daughters hand.
May" wrote back the incredulous old
soldier, I'm believe what zee with my
own eyes. Come you back, scapegrace, to
the lake; build and sail steamboat past my
own door, and then, and not till then, shall
you have my daughter Kate"
Need I say that Fulton came joyfully
back. that steames was built as rapidly as
circumstances would permit. that she was
launched, and in due time sail triumphantly
past the Generals door! But let me add
that, according to an express stipulation
made by the sly Robert In case he succeeded
when the Kate Morgan sheered In towards
the Generals dock small boat was seen
pushing out containing the original Kate,
her grim father and . gentleman in clerical
vestments. They were soon on board, and
there, amid the waving Of flags, the ringing
Of bells, and the blowing of whistles, the
proud inventor and his proudcr bride were
made one. A glorious sweep up and down
the lake completed the first bridal trip by
steam ever known in the country.

Though relieved with touches of tenderness
and pathos, it represents a fierce and barba-

yet withal there is certain dignity always

yJEWs OF THE PATRIARCHS.

Our Free Traders are fond OF quoting JEFF
ferson as their father. He belongs to the
Protectionists and in the following quota
ton from his Message of November, lSOo, we
let him speak for himself
"The situation into which we have been thus iorced
has mpeed US to apply spcrtion Of our industry ana
capital to internal manufactures and improvements
The extent OF this conversion is daily Increasing ana
little doubt remains that the establishments formed anu
forming WILL under tho auspices of cheaper materials
and subsistence the freedom OF labor from taxation
with U.S. aud Of protecting duties, and rRoHiBIroSS'
become permanent"
In 1916, Mr.. Jefferson, in q letter to Benz
Austin of Massachusetts,, reaiiirms IN the
fullest manner his earlier opinions in favor OF
the policy of protecting American Manufac-
lures, or of what he calls the American
System
Mr. Madison said
"f Congress have the power 10 protect the homo
industry Of the country 1t ia annhilated for the nation
a policy without example in any other nation ana not
within the reason of the solitary one In our own"
These are the opinions of men who were sup
posed to know something about the powers OF
the Constitution of the United States.
