ded as to the time school should commence,
and teacher of q private school of ten months

Gov. STocKDALK is going to compliment
our citizens with his views on the tariff. Will
the Governor explain how the tariff is to be
adjusted to revenue basis? If you reduce
the tariff you increase importation and you
can get large revenue from small tariff and
put an end to all protection. The best de6ni-
ton the Ex-Governor's tariff idea is ''free
trade" adjusted to revenue basis. 1t would
ruin the manufacturing interests of this coun-
try-paralize the protection of many things at
present protected, and make US dependent
upon England for all of our manufactured
wares. .Stockdale gets little further out on
the free trade plank than Brigadier General
to our city, but his tariff views are inimical.to
the best interests of our city and section, and
his mission to harmonic the democracy to
Hancock will prove failure.

The curiosity of those who went to hear the

When he dilated upon the subject of the tariff
he deceived neither democrat nor republican
by insisting that he could consistently stand
upon the democratic platform and at the same
time protect our great interests of wool
and sugar. Ochiltree, during his late visit

before him should have kept his lips closed on
the pot-house phrase of "bummer." We con-
slider that by family extraction, educational
training and ability, Tom. Ochiltree fails in NO
respect to be the peer of Mr.. Geo. P. Finlay,
and that as to social standing, he has the en-.
tire to and associates with refined, cultivated
and intellectual class of people in many OF

company Mr.. Finlay might court but vainly
aspire to.

he reached Ottawa, not having sufficient
change with him; but Mr., Conductor was

"or off you CO. Finally the passenger
borrowed of another Ottawa man the re.
quisite sum and paid the money. The
conductor then punched the remainder Of
the 1000 miles full of holes and returned
it to Mr. WalthCr. He gave as his reason
tor the course that the ticket had expired
and was no longer good. The fact Is, 1t
