NO wise man viii set out on journey
Without providing himself with At least
nfty cheap cigars Those which can be
bought for two cents are just as good as
those sold for q dime. and the gift Of
one Is rewarded with Just the same
courtesy. You are in hurry TO change
trains and re-check baggage. The check
man doesn't care two cents whether YOU
are left or not. and the chances are that
you would be left butfor the cigar. Edge
up to him, drop the cigar into bis fingers,
ask him 70 re-check you to Indianapolis,
and you are fixed in six seconds. Hours
later, when he comes 10 sit down for
smoke, he may remember your phiz, and
bless it-but you are far away. The
brakeman on passenger train studies
gruffness. You can't offer him money,
nor ask him out to take a glass of beer;
put II you want to know exactly how
long you have to wait at Hanover juno
ton, and how long 1t takes you to run
from there to Washington, just tender
him two-cent cigar. His granite eoun-
tenance viii instantly melt and run all
over his face, and he will feel himself
bound not only to answer all inquiries,
but to tell you how to save two dimes in
getting your supper at the restaurant
In fact, the influence of a two-cent cigar
Is almost boundless. 1t will stop any
citizen OF any city, and make him feel
happy to answer dozen questions. 1t
will direct you to the best hotels, point
out the best sights, make street-car con-
ductors talk, give you the best seat in
the omnibus, and accomplish all that
gold and silver can do. No man should
travel without them.

Death,

Addison on this subject says: "When
look back upon the tombs of the great,
every motion Of envy dies in me; when
read the epitaphs of the beautiful, every
inordinate desire goes out; when meet
with the grief of parents upon the tomb
stone, my heart nelts with compassion;
when Isee the tomb of the parents them
selves, / consider the vanity of grieving
for those whom we must quickly follow.
When / see kings lying by those who de-
posed them, when consider rival wits
placed side by side, or the holy men that
divided the world with their contests and
disputes, reflect with sorrow aud aston
ishment on the little competitions, fac
tions and debates of mankind. When
read the several dates of the tombs, OF
some that died yesterday. and some six
hundred years ago, consider that great
day when we shall all of us be contempo-
raries, and make our appearance to-
gether."

Roman Bows at School.

Five o'clock in the morning was the
hour at which they went to school, and
as the masters were stern diseiplinarians
their cries of woe made one of the chief
nuisances of the early morning hours.
Insome schools both sexes were together,
although the education of girls was COM
paratively neglected. In the higher
social circles girls were taught music and
dancing, and other fashionable branches,
as nowadays. Tuition was very cheap,
less than one cent day. The boys had
holidays in March and December, and a
long vacation in the Summer, in which
to recuperate their tagging energies. At
fourteen they were put into high schools,
where they studied rhetoric, poetry, bellies
lettres generally, their previous efforts
having been confined to reading, writing,
and arithmetic, with Greek and Latin
grammar and verses. The younger child
rem were taught their letters and numer-
ais by means of small ivory blocks, as
at the present day. The yof teacher
was thirty dollars a year, about one
hundred times less than that of a ballet
dancer-a significant fact.

Married on Conditions.

Miss Emma Jones, young woman
who had passed her life among many
friends at Lockport, New York, surpris-
ed every one who knew her by marking
upon her trunk the letters '.Mrs. j. +.
Bachmann, Pueblo, Col.," and leaving
Lockport the other day for that town.
None of her friends, not even her par
ents, knew that she had husband, and
the story of the secret wedding caused
flutter among her romantic associates.
Two years ago Mr.. Bachmann, at that
time law student in Lockport and the
young woman's lover, was attacked with
quick consumption, the result of cold.
From man of robust health he became
almost helpless and all his friends, ex-
cept Miss Jones, gave him up as one
who must die within few weeks. But
Bachmann was plucky. His first step
was to marry his sweetheart, who was
never to change her name or in any
way reveal the secret should he die. On
the day of the marriage he left for Pueb-
10, there to fight for life. After the lapse
of two years Mr.. Bachmann finds him
self greatly improved in health and with
fortune, luckily made, and his wife
goes to join him.

Perhaps Mr.. Corr thought be was
talking only to capitalists IN his apeeeh.
But tie fact is that he was talking to
men, many of whom had Just come
through the priyation and suffering OF
long strike.
And what caused the strike?
The increased cost Of hving--that,
and nothing else.
And what increased the cost OF liv-
ing?
Largely the .enormities Of an in)uoi-
cious and unnecessary tariff.
Who put on the unnecessary tariff on
articles of necessity?
The men who are in favor Of tarifi
for protection only
We are gratified that upon this point,
at least, Gen. GoFF discioses his posi-
ton, and lets the people Of Wheeling
and especially the laboring classes
know where he stands.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1882-10-05

that the people Of the manufacturing
city of Wheeling were ignorant on the
subject of Tariff; that they had no.
studied It in all lis Bearings; that they
needed instruction and exhortation on
the subject, or that they would be IN
doubt on election day as to whether ]
their votes should be cast for tarif or
an anti-tariR candidate.
Gen. Corr knows the people OF
Wheeling too well to have been misled
on any Of these points.
Therefore, we conclude that General
GoFF's tariff exhibition in thiscity, scds
He supposed that by spreading his
tariff taffy right plentifally over
Wheeling audience they would regard
him as veritable champion OF all the
virtue there Is In tariff
He supposed that he might induce the,
people Of this city, who have solarge an
interest in the subject of tariff, to believe
that possibly or probably he, Gen.
Corr, hailing from an agricultural
county and born and bred among an
exclusively agricultural people, would
have better ideas and q better cOncep-
ton of the interests and wants Of man
ufaeturing city, than his opponent, Me.
Coon, who halls from the very heart Of
the city itself, whose every interest Is
identified with manufacturing people,
whose education was received by the
light of the furnace fires, whose associa-
lions from boyhood to manhood, whose
past and whose future has been and will
be with this community, and that these
people would be less willing to place
their interests In the hands Of their fell
/ low citizen, Mr.. GOOD, than OF q nom
resident and comparative stranger, Mr..
| GoFF.
Gen. GoFF's great tariff performance
has very signally failed of Its purpose in
| two important particulars.
It tailed in eoneealing the purpose for
which it was made, viz:-Votes.
1t failed In convincing the people that
he has that practical Information aud
conception of the subject Of tariff that
our people would desire in q representa-
tive.
| While Gen. GoFF has gone into his
tory and traced up the antecedents Of
the tariff controversy, he seems to have
no conception Of the subject in Its prac'
teal application. He don't seem to De

the tariff which are now occupying the

EprroRs REsIsrER-In the present cam
paign the principal stock in traie Oh the
Republicans seems to be the charge that the
expenses of the State government have
been greatly increased under the Demo-
cratic administration of it. Your attention
is called to the fact thai the Asse 'sors DOCKS
of every county will show that during the
time from 1865 until 1875, when the State
came fully under the control OF Republican
legislation, the taxation for State purposes
was as follows: o-
In each of the years 1866, 1855 and 1857,
40 cents on the 500.
In each of the years 1868 and 1853, 81
cents on the 500.
In each year from that time till 1878, %
cents ON the 800.
Since 1878, under Democratic legislation
and administration the taxation for State
purposes has been invariably in each year,
80 cents on the 500.
In this county the county levy was:
In each of the years 1855 and 1855, ~
cents Oh the 800. aE :.
In each of the years 1867 and 1868, 50
cents on the 500.
In each of the years 1869, 1870 and 1871
40 cents on the 800.
In 1872 the Board of Supervisors OF TINS
county, who ought to have known it, wonld
not be sufficient to meet the liabilities oil
the county levied, but 20 cents on the sloo
This levy left the county in debt on its cur

GEN. 6OFFTAKESA TEXT FROM THE
REGISTER.

In trying to discover just where Gen.
GoFF stands on the tariff question, we
have taken the pains to look up ref
erenee he made to an editorial article
Of the REGISTER of September "a.
We are glad that Gen. GOFF has made
allusion to that article.
II serves to put the General on record
upon the one vital issue connected
with the tariffquestion in this district.
1t is the only point in his speech up
on which we can pin him down. The
balance was mere balderdash.
But in this he takes issue with a
practical tariffquestion.
understand him to say that he is
opposed to the position of the REGIs-
TER. :
And what was the position of the
REGISTER Z? r- =
The article referred to, defines the
difference between "a tariff for revenue
only"and "a tariff for protection only
The REGISTER asserted that both were
wrong-both represented the extrem-
its in the tariff controversy. A "tariff
for revenue only" would not afford suf-
ficient protection to some industries,
while "tariff for protection onlyn
would create monopolies, increase the
cost Of living, break up our foreign
commerce, and cut Off the revenues we
derive from the tariff.
Here Is what we said in the issue of
September eth, and that to which Mr..
GoFF takes exception:
To sum up: A tariff that is levied for
the purpose of increasing the price of
the goods, and not because the Govern
ment needs the revenue, is a protective
tariff. Such q tariff, instead of being
"ior revenue only" is for protection
only.
This is the distinction which the Ohio
county convention intended to make in
Its tariff plank-as we understand it
when II said: Protection, and not q
tariff for revenue only"
lfsuch policy Is carried out In levy
ing tariff it will increase the cost of
living i'm this country enormously.
Ninety-nine- hundredths Of the hboring
instead of being benefited
by such tariff, would be taxed heavily
for the benefit of the other one-h0n-
dredth who employ them.
Moreover, . tariff for protection only,
excludes the idea Of a tariff for revenue
as il necessarily shuts out the articles
upon which it Is levied. Just as under
the existing tariff, the enormous rate on
many articles covering 3 scale OF from
thirty to two hundred per cent, Is in a
great number OF instances, not produc-
tive OF revenue. 1t excludes the articles
on which it Is levied, and therefore adds
nothing to the revenue of the govern
ment.
So now, we understand Mr.. Corr to
declare himself in favor of q tariff "PoR
PROTECTION" regardless Of revenue,
regardless of the rights of the consumer
regardless Of the cost to the laboring
classes, regardless of the oppressive
lakes il would impose II we had no rev.
enne from the tariff
Mr.. Corr would therefore give pro-
lection to the few at the expense of the
many; be would place the manufac-
urer far beyond the reach Of conpeti-
ion, without regard to the effect on the /
,mploye; he would enhance the price
# living to such pitch that the capt.
alists would fiourish and tine laboring |
nan starve; he would shut out every
