MIR. PaELPs, LIE TIER.


 In his letter accepting the Republican nom lnation for Congress in the Fifth district of New Jersey William Walter Phelps has some thing to say concerning protection, and what he says is we'll worth reading. Noting the phenomenal appearance of young mon in the campaign, he especially warns them against the Vaccinations of Free Trade, a theory at tractive to the ardent, generous mind of youth. He points out that the advocates of this attractive theory never fail to present it to the young as the intelligent manly, liberal, lofty, fashionable and English sentiment which will mark them as superior men. He observes that the world cannot be managed on the assumption that all it's inhabitants are unselfsh and Christian, and adds: It is in this world of tod day that we live, and in 8 republic where the content and prosperity of the laboring men, who form the great and broad foundation of our civil structure, are of vital importance. Their welfare, there fore, becomes the first duty of statesman ship, and statesmanship has never yet devised a more efficient way of securing it than a pro- tective tariff It is the best of all ways for taxing capital in the interest of labor. Its
 
 market, where he meets with oIly home con- petition, and where he can obtain such prices for his products enable him to pay his workmen well. Under it's protection the factory, the mill and the mine seize and oc cupy points all over our land, which they make centers of heat and light and life to the neighborhood.
 Tlol k.s, I,sa af. l., didate is vitally interested in protection It contains silk mills, iron mills, locomotive works, woolen and cotton mills, etc. Mr. Phelps brings the question home to the minds and hearts of those who to vote for or against him, as follows: Protection for revenue-which ignores the superior claims of labor to the protection of the gov ernment, and would let labor take an equal chance with capital in the struggle for life would remove the duty on everything we manufacture in this district. And yet this and this reluctantly-is all the aid that fifty years of prayer has enabled the poor man to wiring from the Democratic party in his struggle for bread It still remains true to the policy which Southern statesmen, who legislated for landed gentry and despised me- chanical labor, impressed upon it, just as the Republican party, springing into life to pro- tect the interests of labor, white or black, chose as policy, and still inforces it, pro- lection to American industry.
 MT. Phelps letter is strong one, and his opinions will commend themselves to the workingmen of his district. He states the case for protection very clearly and forcibly.

Part of a Rabbits Eyo TranspIanted
 Iuto That of R Man.
 An unusual and interesting operation was performed in the public eye clinic that is held every Friday from till ? o'clock in the amphithestre of Jefferson College Hospital in Philadelphia. The operation was per formed by Dr. W. l.. Little, chief of the eye clinic and will doubt turn out entirely successful. It consisted in transplanting the conjunctiva (which is the layer of tissue forming the inner lining of the lids and re- fected on to the eyebalD of rabbit into the eye of a man who was brought into the hos pital a couple of months ago, suffering from burn that had entirely destroyed his sight. He is young Irishman named Michael Me- Mullin, twenty eight years old, just over from the old country a few months a strong, well formed, healthy fellow, but as helpless as ing over he secured employment in a large chemical works, and while handling strong sulphuric acid the fluid splashed up over his face and head, burning him terribly and sud denly and completely blinding him. The right eye was destroyed entirely, and the left one so injured that anchylo blepharon re. suited, that is, the lids grew fast to the ball, the burn having destroyed most of the soA junction. It was decided by g consultation of the surgeons in the eye department to re sort to this rare operation, with the hope of restoring the ball and lids to their normal
 
 to the injured left eye. Dr. Little after some trouble, succeeded in getting a healthy I buck rabbit, large, fine fellow of the lop ear variety. He was fastened firmly to an apparatus used in experim. nting on animals l and ether being administered to the man and | rabbit, both were soon under the influence oi the ansesthetic. Dr. Little, assisted by Drs H. F. Hansell, Wright and c. M. Wilson l soon had the eye-lid of the man loose from l it's firm adhesion to the ball and ready fol the new piece of conjunction which pr. l. i w. Fox, assisted by Dr. Ad. Hewson, hat carefully and skillfully dissected from tn, left eye of the unconscious rabbit. Tn, part, still warm and bleeding, was rapidl, transferred to the under surface of the man' | eyelid and neatly stitched to it's place. H l was then removed to the ward upstairs ant it is hoped that in a few days the wound vii l be entirely healed. That much being ac complished, another different operation will be resorted to that will most likely restore t the man the invaluable blessing of sight The rabbit, however, will soon have a com pletely closed left eye, which will not b regretted much by the most ardent follower of Bergh if the unfortunate patient is bene filed

An experiment made in New Jersey this year gives strong support to the conclusions reached by Dr. Collier of the Agricultural department concerning sorghum culture in this country. At Rio Grande, about six miles from Cape May, some gentlemen who had faith in Dr. Golfers scientific skill have started sorghum plantation of one thousand acres, and are now busily engaged in grinding the cane and making sugar. They have al- ready sent to Philadelphia 100, 900 pounds of excellent sugar, and confidently expect to produce this season at least 5OO 900 pounds worth about $35, ,O0O, or some $35 an acre for crop which has cost no more to cultl- vate than ordinary crop of corn. The plantation is described as furnishing scenes like those to be found in Cuba or Louisiana Four centrifugals are constantly at work purging the sugar, and gentleman who wis., tied the place last week saw 100 barrels of sugar (of 300 pounds each) ready for ship ment The owners of the plantation are so we'll satisfied with their success that they are preparing to double the capacity of their works.

and the advances in that direction have gone far enough to cause jealousy in New York, which is not pleased to learn that it is in any danger of losing this unique orna- ment of it's harbor.
 One of the evils of Pennsylvania politics is nomination by conferees. Each of the coun- ties composing a congressional district, for example, presents it's own candidate These candidates appoint three conferees each, and these six or nine men really make or try to make the nomination. Three districts in that State are engaged in the dead lock busi- ness at present because the friends of each candidate refuse to compromise. The con- ferees meet, ballot and adjourn. In the sen atorial districts the same performance is solemnly gone through with. It is we'll said that the conferees are merely agents of the aspirants, and not arbitcrs between them An attorney must not abandon his client without show of making 9 fight Every day that nomination is delayed these agents are praised for their stubbornness. Some times election comes without a settlement of these absurd quarrels, and then the other party profits by the failure to agree.

The Milwaukee RepaJlicon-tSenti,aez has canvassed Wisconsin pretty thoroughly on the subject and finds that the woman suffrage movement appears to be making but little progress in the State. Comparatively few women, it says, seem to take an active inter- est in it, and the men generally view it with supreme indifference. The German speaking part of the population was found to be al most unanimous in it's opposition, and in fact the only real efforts to extend the elective franchise seem to be making by the womens Christian temperance societies. with the idea that if the ballot is put into the hands of women the liquor traffic will be speedily abolished

Senator Mitchell, of Pennsylvania, has so far been unable to take part in the campaign in that State, but he has just made it known that his views concerning the situation have undergone no change. He still believes that the Beaver ticket represents all the evils of bossism, and that the Stewart ticket stands for the very opposite views and purposes. The Republican party, he says, will not suffer in the long run by the present unhappy di- vision, but eff it has no will of it's own, if it IS, indeed, composed of underlings and po- litlcal slaves who are willing still to do the voting and let the bosses the power of tue party as they please, and not as the peo- pie will it to be used, it is unworthy of fur ther trust and it's death is near"
