Cotton EabircS.

The total consumption Of cot
ton fabrics, with duties added
thereon, in 1870, in this coun-
try, was $942, 100, 900;
Of this there was imported
from foreign countries only
$40, ,O0O,0 900. The home pro-
duction was $214,OO00OO.
Now, the protectionlsts claim
that high tariff is necessary
to protect home industry. Let
us see.
The Government received
revenue on the above $500,
600.
The MonopoIists received on
the same goods 500, 100000.
There we have $94,350,00O
flched fromthe Pockets of the
People, in one year to enrich
Radical Monopolists. Do you.
call that prote citing home in-

This is a fair example of the
swindIing doctrine of Protection
advocated and enforced by the
patty in power. 1t is money

IXP Latest Horror.

The number of deaths resulting from
the steamboat explosion At New York a
week ago last Sunday have reached nine
ty three, AMI several more of the wound
ell probably cannot long survive. lnves-
ti"atlon Is going ON daily TO see if the
real cause OF the accident can be ascer-
taIn"l. Although the testimony is rath-
or conflicting, enough has been adduccd
to >how criminal Incidence and reckless
ness bath on part of the engineer and the
ferry company.
1t appears in the investigation that
the engineer could neither read nor write.
The printed regulations of the company
and the letters stamped by the manufac-
turcr upon the engine, were alike 4 dead
language 10 him. Added to ignorance.
the engineer of the "Wcsifeld" was in
temperate, and away from his post. 1t
has also been demonstrated that the boil
u was t'icfllht anu hllDh u ~ Dt 81 DOM
by the inspectors and the owners.
Daring the testimony before the inves-
tI"atln9 committee on Monday, n Com
mod"re Strong, Inspector of lighthouses,
testified 10 being in the engine room not
long since Just before the time of start
ING, and no one was there, though the
steam was rising rapidly and the guaee
indicated high pressure. Alfred Hor-
ton, an engineer, believes that the cxplo-
SION commenced at the rupture in the
bottom and at 4 pressure Of forty pounds.
John Phin, the editor Of the Technolo-
@ist, found no crack, but thought that
the explosion took place under forty
pounds pressure Alexander ID. Doug
lass, Chief engineer Of the steamship
Huntsville, found no sign Of crack, and
believes that the explosion was caused
by fifty pounds pressure, the guage being
out Of order.

Il JTOrc IN the KigHf Direction.

The action Of the corporation OF the
Burlington Wt) University on Tuesday,
in decidin" to admit women to the privil-
eyes of the institution, deserves general
commentator. 1t is cmphatically a
move in the light direction, and calls for
imitation from other New England col
lcgcs If women desire to attain the ed
ucational rights that can only he reached
through the medium OF our universities,
it Is but right and proper that the oppor-
tunity should be afforded them. The
doors should be thrown wide open, and
no Obstacles placed in their path. The
probability is not very Great that many
OF them will determine to 90 through the
severe curriculum of Il college, for the
simple reason that the necessity will not
be regarded rs sufficiently Great to justify
the time, toll and money. Women,
however, are very generally aspiring

''TnE MOsT jolly SuNpAY."-Sucl
Is the title applied TO the last Sabbath by
the New York Commercial idretisci.
which says that was"the gayest Sunday
of the season, showing that New York is
fast ver@Ing toward the German idea OF
Sabbath observance. While the CLERGY
men of several churches in New York
and brooklyn were delivering sermons
suggested by the calamity one week be-
fore, steamers on the river and harbor
were laden with eXcursionists ofall sorts.
the parks were throngcI, and such resorts
as Coney Island seem TO have been fre-
qucnted perhaps rather more than usual,
on account OF the oppressive heat of the
city"

THE CnAEIEsTowN MUEDER.-Thc
shocking death of three persons near
CharlcStown, n. H.. last week, by bein"
run over by the up noon train from Bel
lows Falls, created great feeling in that
vicinity, rs we'll rs in Boston, where the
parties were well known. Large num-
bers attended their funerals in Boston on
Friday. The Bellows Falls TmcS. in
speaking of the accident, says:
The engineer blew his whistle ut the
usual place below the crossing, and could
only see the carriage when within about
four car lengths of it, on account of the
curve of the highway which dcsccnds
from the track going west or toward
Springfield. The cause is most likely to
have been the very small distance Of rail
way track which can be seen from thc
highway as teams approach the crossing
towards Charlestown village The en-
gineer instantly reversed his engine on
discovering carriage on the crossing but
il was of course too late

DEATH OF TIE FIRST ENGINEER -
Charles Dyke, who recently died, at the
age of s. years, in New York state, was
the engineer of f'ulton's little trial steam
cr, the Clarcmont, when she made her
first trip from New York To Albany on
the 9Th of August, 1907. What I'M
mense and wonderful changes this gentle
man saw, in tie Ct years of his life, af-
ter that day. lie lived to see our rivers
covered with steamers; hc may have
read the words of I.ardncr. who offered
ii a steamship should safely cross the At
lantic, TO eat her boilers; and lie saw Il
daily steam ferry established across the
ocean. lie was Il man almost in middle
life when the first railroad was Laid, and
the first locomotive run over il, in the
| nitcd States and hc lived TO see a rail
road built across the continent, and his
fellow citizens making Il pleasure tour Of
a few enjoyable days across the great
desert which appalled, Lewis and Clarke,
and on which 50 many thousands have
persisted, in later days, Of starvation.
Having managed Fuliom's first rude steam
engine, he lived TO see great war Iar"c-
~ carried on by the help of steam, and
the possession % Steamships and loco
motives controlling lis issues. lie lived
in fact, to see steam, which he helped
Fulton to utiiiI", control and CHANGE
our civilization, annlilatc distance, and
Irin" the ends OF the earth together.
How STRANGELY it read, to us, whr have
been 50 long accustomed 10 the ne of
the wonderful invention, that the first
engineer of the first steamboat has but
