The board OF state auditors has always made
the most ample provision for welcoming visit
ors to the new capitol, and having them prop
ery shown through the building But the lib
erty extended has IN many cases been abused
great many persons have written their names
on the walls and other parts OF the building,
and otherwise defaced and mutllated them.-
Tobacco juice has been elected, 10 stain the
ornamental work below the gallery ratings in
the dome. The interior of the dome is now
being reprinted, and the names OF hundreds of
seekers after cheap famo are thereby consigned
to oblivion. When this work is completed. no
visitor will be admitted above the fourth story
unless attended by an employe OF the state,
and notices will be posted warning visitors that
those detected in defacing the building Will be
promptly arrested. The corridors are well SUD
piled with epittoons, for the convenience OF
tobacco users, and those who e1pectorate as
gentlemen should make use OF them.-Lansing

THE LITERARY SUCCESS OF THE
CENTURY.

An eminent English authority recently pro-
nounced Scrbner's Monthly = The greatest lit
erary success OF the century" The New Eng
land Journal OF Education says: America may
well be proud OF such magazine. The Illus
trated London News considers it one OF the
marvels OF the day." The London Illustrated
penny Paper says: With It's inlmitably fin
ished gems OF drawing aud engraving, it is the
wonder and admiration OF the art-world.
The Aprh number just issued ends the XIXth
volume, which is exceptionally brilliant. The
New York Evening Post Hartford Courant,
ard other papers. speak OF the series by Eugene
Schuyler on Peter the Great, as 1.-The most
notable event in modern magazine literature"
The style is so simple and yet go graphic that
it interests not only men OF letters but the
young, and is read as textbook in the schools.
1t is understood that the causes and beginnings
of Nhlism in Russia will be traced by Schuyler
in the course Of his narrative.
Rev. Or. Eggleston writes OF Mr.. George W.
Cable and his story, The Grandssimes, in
Scrlbner: II Gable can hold that gait, the rest
OF us who write American stories must sur
render to him. What superb piece OF work

AN TRANSFERABLE STATEMENT

Joseph MedIll, OF the Chicago Tribune. has
addressed letter to Mr.. g arfield in reference
to the duty On wood pulp, which Is interesting
both because it is from protectionist who has
become revenue resormer. to a protectionlst
who has at times pretended to be revenue
reformer. and because it IS succinct review OF
arguments which have at various times and in
various manners been presented before. Our
readers are already familiar with most OF them
but we briefly rehearse them.
lie says publishers are helpless. Ii they in
crease their subscription price they lose their
subscribers: If they diminish the SIZE OF their
papers they cripple their advertisers and dis
satisfy their readers.
They give employment to ten times as many
operatives as do pulp and paper manufacturers,
whose wages or profits suffer without remedy
hence the present tariff Injuries Ten times as
many employees as it helps.
Publishers have. and. in the nature OF the
case, can have, no protection from the tariff
Their wares are not OF a character to be pro-
tec,ed from. competition. Hence the tariff in
jures, without protecting them.
They employ skilled labor; the manuHactur-
els OF pulp and paper employ unskled labor.
Hence the tariff protects unsklled labor at the
expense of skilled labor, which Is direct con
tradlction Of the theory of protection.
Print paper is by its bulk alone sufficiently
protected in the cost OF its transportation.
Paper is the raw material of the publishing
business hence, the tariff is tax on raw ma
terial The manufacture of pulp Is a patent
monopoly, and ought 10 be sufficient protec-
ton. But, in addition, a large variety of raw
materials for paper making are admitted free.
The paper-maker gets bis raw material free
the newspaper makers raw material is taxed.
Congress acts as If it had an enmity toward
newspapers. It's unwillingness to free them
from this tax, and its law compelling them to
pay advance postage, are evidences of this hos
tility. They seem to judge the profit OF news
paper publishing b. few, strong, profitable.
but exceptional journals. They lose sight OF
the ninety-nine out OF one hundred which they
are driving TO the wall.-Detroit Free Press.

The WAY TO HEALTH.-The only true way TO
health is that which common-sense dictates TO
man. Live within the bounds OF reason. Eat
moderately, drink temperately, sleep regularly,
avoid excess in anything, and preserve con-
science void of ofense." Some men eat them
selves to death. some drink themselves to death,
some wear out their lives by Incidence. and
some by over-exertion, while not few sink
into the grave under the effects of vicious
practices. All the medicines in creation are
not worth farthing to a man who is constant
ly and habltually violating the laws OF his own
nature. All the medical science IN the world
cannot rave him from premature grave. With
a suicidal course of conduct he is planting the
seeds OF decay IN his own constitution ard ac-
celebrating the destruction CT his own life
