There Is no chance, no destiny, no fate,
Can clrcumvcnt or hinder or control
The firm resolve Of determined soul.
Gifts count for nothing; will alone Is great,
All things give way before IT, soon or late.
What obstacle can stay the mighty force
or the sea seeing river in its course,
or cause the ascending orb Of day to walt
zach wll.born soul must win what it deserves
Let the fool pirate OF luck. The fortunate
n he whose earnest purpose never swerves,
Whose slightest action or inaction, serves,
The one great aim. ,,,

And waits an hour sometimes for such will.

WAGES.
How They are Affected by the Protective
Tariff System.

| Toronto Globe.
| The republican stump orators made the
most, during the late campaign, OF the cir.
ICumstance that, jus: at this moment wages in
The protected United States are higher than in
tree trade England. They forgot to recall that
the cost of living is also higher, except As far
As regards provisions which do not consume
more than quarter or IA third of a mans
wages They also left unmcntloned the fact
that during 1874 and 1878 wages in England
were higher than IN the United States-as is
attcsted by the reilux of emigration which
took place in those years. Neither did it Oc.
cur TO them to mention the weil-known fact
that wages IN tree trade England are very
much higher than wages in any of the pro
tccted countries of the Old World, ana 1t is
with counties of equally close population
that the comparison ought to be made In
the United States wages are high because the
country is thlnly peopled, and there are great
opportunities for the w0rkingman purchasing
farm. 1t is therefore necessary that wages
should be good in order to keep them from
aocking to the West This, again, is borne
out by the fact that, during the hard times,
when wages ran down the men ran of, and
the sales of United States land ran up to I'M
precedcntcd figures Moreover, wages were
high in the United States long before the
Morrill, tariff was let loose upon the people
Another refutation Of the proiecuonists' asser-
TONS IS found in "a letter written by an Eng.
lsh workman now residing in Massachusetts.
He says:
Now, if free trade is the cause OF low wages,
how is it that they have continued to rise IN
that country ever since II was adopted? III
their argument was good, why not take Eng
land when she was protective and COMPARE
her with today, having her ports open to the
world? | could give you thirty years expe-
rience Of the wages of cotton operatives of
Lancashire but one or two instances | think

they want to make a fair comparison why not
compare Germany with this country? They

Common.sense is science exactly so far as 1t
fulfills the ideal Of common sense; that Is,
sees facts as they are, or at any rate, without
the distortion of prejudice, and reasons from
them in accordance with the dictates of sound
Judgment. And science is simply common
sense at its best; that is, rlgidly accurate in
observation, and merciless to falacy in logic.
