now THE TARIFF WORKS.

There was . great clamor among the
iron and steel men, at the Pittsburg Con-
vention the other day, for more protection.
These gentlemen have had special tariff
legislation to enrich them for a good many
years. and the steel rail men are protected
from competition by . tax on foreign rails
Of 100 per cent. The people Of this
country. to-day, solely for the purpose of
enriching o few monopolists, have to pay
war rates for many hundreds Of articles.
They are taxed, for instence, 100 per cent.
for chloroform, 100 per cent, for acetic
acid, 100 per cent. for cotton jeans, 118
per cent. for croton oil, Gil per M for
fusil oil. 2l3 per cent. for Paris white and
whining, 100 per cent. for ground spices,
ia per cent. for rice starch, 100 to LOG per
cent. for wooden hosiery and other wooden
goods. These taxes on foreign goods the
consumers have to pay, and they have per-
mitted themselves to be thus swindled for
years, while every allusion to the necessity
OF reducing the tariff and relieving the
people is condemned by American protec-
ton journals as treason. The protection
lists system is robbing the people
Of hundreds Of millions annually.
1t has obstructed the revenue of the Gov
eminent. It has created ~monopolies and
rings, which have become SO powerful that
they control Congress. This is . state Of
affairs which the people can abolish. The
consumers are interested in obtaining re-
lief from this outrageous taxation to sup
port . few selfish monopolists, and it can
be accomplished by Congress. The pro-
tectionists are beginning to realize that
there are symptoms Of q popular revolt
their greed and tyranny; that peo-
pie are asking why they should be enor-
mously taxed to protect q few manufactur-
ers from competition. that they may the
more easily practice their extortion on the
American people.

A GERMAN doctor, after years of pro-
found inquiry. has made the delightful
discovery that ''early to bed and early to
rise" etc., is a delusion. He finds that
most long livers have INDUCED in late
hours, ard that so far from any decided
benefit being gained from getting up early,
it rather tends to exhaust physical energy
and shorter life. So far from the early
morning hours being the most inyigor-
ating, they are, IN the contrary, apt to
produce lassitude, and are to some consti-
tutions much more injurious than dewy
eve.

Senator Thurman, in his great speech
the other day, showed very plainly and
satisfactorily, to any unbiased mind, why
the Democrats insisted upon the repeal Of
certain sections Of the Federal election
laws. Among other unanswerable things.
he said: OF the s2s5. s21 expended, how
much went to protect the poor freedman
from the night rider. White Lacquer and
Kuklux who oppressed him In 1876, in
the ten Southern States. $4s. 719 we're ex-
pended, and in other States $2S7, 250-
about one-sixth South and fve-sixths
North. Thus were the freedmen protected.
For every dollar they gave to protect the
negro they spent five to corrupt the cleo
tons .sorth and deprive men OF their right
TO vote there. Conk.ing had enumerated
the various qualities Of thugs and roughs
which formed his constituency, but were
New York CITY raked from Harlem to the
Battery, there could not be found . worse
yet OF men than the Deputy Marshals Sc
lected in 1876 and 1873 were. More than
half the amount Of money spent in the
North wa sent to New York State-about
9l56, 900. Some was sent to pacify the
roughs in Pennsylvania, about $37, 900
then about $4,000 vent to Maryland, and
$4,000 to Jersey City. This left only
&6o, 900 for 80 other States. In 1878 there
were 1881 Supervisors, Of whom 1858
were in New York ind 1852 in Pennsy'va-
mia. leaving only 1905 for all the other
States. OF the 4,725 Marshals, over half
we're in New York. OF s222, ia expended,
only $18.24f went to the South. The gains
in New York, Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sey, made by the Republicans. will show
Why money was spent. The greatest gains
were where the most money was spent.
There was evidence that money was spent
c~orruptly. Only deputies were appointed
who promised to work for the Republican
candidate. If the Democrats got the
President in 1881, the Republicans would
clsnaor for a repeal Of these laws-another
OK would be gored then. He said Daven-
port had made . nice sum from fees on
afidaviss for false registration. This man
should be held up to eternal infamy. Da-
venport got $34, 900 from the Secret Service
fund and never accounted for it. This
Davenport was a bigger man than
half . dozen such Presidents as we have
now-in controlling elections. Davenport
was not . pismire, but an elephant.

fore, n q great many men who were idle,

APPRECIATION OF Silver, AND IT'S CAUSE.
From the Evening Bulletin.
The real causes are, that the shower OF
silver from abroad, which was a~pprehended
on the resumption Of specie payments. has
come to u end, and has not been large
the wants Of the country for silver change
are increasing to such an extent that the
East is absorbing the surplus which was
heretofore maintained here.
WILL RUIZ THE BOOST.
From the Enterprise.
Kearney will dictate the offcers to be
elected this year in California. He is
flushed with victory, bold, aggressive, and
will make an Offensive fight, while the
strength Of the two old political parties
will be fritsed away in PLAYING for partisan
advantages. The Chronicle will lind out
which men are Kearney's choice. and sup
port them Is its own choice. and the farce
will be played to the end. California has
excellent prospects ahead. md ought, BY
next spring, to be able to exclaim, with the
demoralized parrot, We've had . hi Of

NEW IUAK, MAY II.
The ssTimes," commenting on the San
Francisco suicide and divorce calendar,
says: They show at what high pressure the
people there live. They have ~ o rule no
repose, no regular method, no wholesome
self-discipline. Life is an emotional and
sensational carnival. All the inhabitants,
from the lowest to the highest. from the
poorest to the most prosperous, look to
some lucky venture for the golden reward
Of spasmodic effect. When baked Of their
aims and hopes they impulsively throw of
the life which for the moment seems I'M
endurable. What San Francisco needs for
healthful development is the acceptance Of
the idea Of regular work, with q proper
tionate compensation, and the relinquish-
ment Of faith in . convulsive and I'M
earned success.

A Broken Household.

OF all dreary beart-aches, of all eartf's most
detected wrctched woes, comes there any
thing to compare to the feelings of the return
ing inmates of a broken household, knowing
that one has just been borne away who will
never, while their home lasts, cross its-thrcsh-
old again: A beloved son and and brother: o
God! even while the inanimate form was with
them they could not comprehend their loss.
They might still look upon the casket and
fancy that sleep alone had laid her gentle hand
upon it, and that with the awaking day their
idol might open its eyes upon them. Alas,
that day, when the coffin, enshrined with its
gloomy shadow its form: when the pail bearers
had borne it over the threshold: when the
somber hearse was taking it from its home:
when the cold earth had dropped upon its coffin
lid: when the green sod had been placed
upon the grave then, 0 how they realize their
loss. Never more to hear the voice of their
loved one on earth, never more to look into
the eyes that were SO dear to them. They
look ut his vacant chair but where is he? The
thought of all his friends are that he is with
the happy angles: and now dear weeping
friends those tears will be Quenched in prayer
God seems the nearest friend to fly to and he
will enable us to say thy will o Lord, not mine,
be done.
We share our mutual woes,
our mutual burdens bear,
And often Tor each other flows
The sympathizing tear.

Mr.. Brainard's elevator is approaching
completion although the work has been
delayed somewhat on account of the ma
chinery not all arriving on time.
1t is 80 X 10 feet on the ground and
seventy feet high. 1t is built with a
special reference to convenience and
economy in handling grain. Mr.. Brain
ard has had a large experience in the
management Of elevators of different
kinds. He has planned this one and sup
ervised its erection. The basement story
is eleven feet and contains five pits, two
for receiving and three for cleaning
wheat. A large amount of wheat can be
taken in without elevating, thereby
avoiding the necessity of running the
engine during days when re-
ceipts are light. The entire structure is
of the most substantial kind. The found
alton walls are built of Kasota stone,
three feet two inches thick. The sup
porting posts rest on solid stone piers six
feet square The timbers and the work
are all of the best quality. The chimney
will be eighty feet high. The engine is
from Erie Pa, and is in place as is, also,
the duplex separator. The carpenter
work has been done by Chaplin s David
son of Janesville, MINI.
The elevator will be ready for use in
about ten days. Mr.. Rrainard will take
personal charge Of it and will be assisted
by Mr. a. H. Gibson, both experienced
in operating elevators and handling
grain.

The Chicago wheat dealers have
decided that Wisconsin and Mime
sofa winter wheat does not equal in
quality the same variety raised in
Illinois and southern Iowa, and in
purchasing they discriminate against
the former. While this decision
does not materially affect Minnesota,
where winter wheat is produced
only in exceptional localities and IN
small quantity, it will cause consid-
cradle STIR among Wisconsin farmers
who for few years past have been
devoting their attention very largely
to winter wheat, partly with view
to avoiding the loss by chinch bugs,
whose ravages among the spring
wheat have been so serious as to
prove very discouraging. It was
claimed in a meeting Of Chicago
buyers that Wisconsin winter wheat
flour was worth fifty cents q barrel
less than flour made from Illinois OF
Missouri wheat-and the difference
in the market value of the wheat
Twill be even correspondingly greater
