SENATOR JONES of Nevada
struck the high tariff men a square
blow when he remarked that their
efforts were directed towards pro-
tecting the manufacturing capi ?
talist and not the laborer against
the European capitalist. The
former sells in an American mar
ket in which foreigners cannot
compete and he buys his labor in
the openest market in the world.
The laborer buys in the protected
market and sells, the only thing
he has, his labor, in open market,
meeting with competition of all
kinds and nationalities. The
Senator thought when laborers
understood the question they
would demand an open market in
which to buy everything they
needed. After while the asser-
ton that manufacturers are the
only friends of the workingman,
and only desire tariff in order to
maintain his wages, will cease to
form one of the stock arguments
for protection.

Once grounded in this fatalism
there would be nothing to- stimu-

he try, when trying costs self
denial and toll, and oftentimes
sore hardship and privation?. 1t

reported by the citizens, by stolen or

that they would be safe, but she was
sadly disappointed rs in a short time
the church was on fire and soon was .

ADVENTURES OF A DOG.
4 VALUABLE ANIMAL THRICE
STOLEN FROM HIS OWNER-
MIS- RETURN AOME.

A grandson of the Rev.J.L. Houston,
is the owner of valuable dog, Of the
Newfoundland species, which was pre-.
sented to him on his fifth birthday,
since which time 1t has been sto en-
three times, and when it could get
away ss often came home. At the be-
ginning his collar and register were
stolen from off his neck. The second
time he was stolen he remained away
three weeks and whom he came home
he had fine collar on, which nu doubt
belonged to city gentleman. He re-
nained homo this time nnd strict
watch WAS kept on him; ne WAS also
chained most of the time, but lass Sum
day afternoon he was taken again.
The dog is an amiable one and the
child, together with the rest of the fam.
lily are very much attached TO him and
have mourned his departure upon each
occasion and made fruitless searches
for him for weeks. Last Sunday night
Mr.. Houston got up out Of bed to low or
the window, when he heard the bark
ing OF dog as though in distress. AL
though the hour was late, Mr.. Houston
thinking perhaps 1t was his own dog,
hastily dressed and started out in
search Of it, following the sound from
his residence to jackson and Eleventh.
streets, and sure enough it WAS mis- own
animal chained fast to large stone
near by where man named Mckinney
resides. Mr.. Ii. took possession of the
dog, who was delighted TO see his mas.
Jer, and led him tu the door Of Mr.. Nc.
Kinney's house and knocked. A man
answered the SUMMONS, when he was
asked If he knew anything about the
dog being chained there, to which he
replied no, but had heard a dog bark.
ing. At this junCture Mr. Mckinney
came to tho door and inmedi.tel
claimed the collar on the dog, jumped
TOR 1t and TOOK it Off
When asked if the chain was his he
first replied no hut after wards yes, and
also claimed the dog and threatened
Mr.. Houston. AS Mr.. IL. turned away
Mr.. Mckinney called the dog, giving
his name as Jack, but the dog did not
respond. Mr.. h. had but to give Z
whistle when the dog bounded to his
side, and he detied Mr.. Mckinney to
take possession OF it Mr.. H. is not de-
IN what manner he will pro-
ceed against the above mentioned gen
but that something will be
done there is no doubt. Mr.. II. is very
indignant over the matter and declares
that he will not live in a place where
such crimes can be committed with
