Caldwell at Huntington.


The Temperance Mass Meeting
Tuesday evening of last week, at
Huntington, was a splendid sue
cess in many respects.
1t was success in stirring up
the latent devilment of the saloon
interest and bringing it forth IN
it's hidcous insolence where decent
men can fight it.
1t was success in putting many
good temperance workers into ac-
tive service IN organized effort.
1t was a success in showing an
Indifferent public that the suffer
ing women and children of Hunt
ington have some rights that vot-
ers and councils are bound to re-
spect.
The meeting was held in open
air on a vacant lot, where the live
temperance business men OF the
city, spent the afternoon in erecting
a stanG and seats, from lumber
pile near at hand. There was a
readiness to help and an independ-
ence of spirit in this that always
gives zest and life and success to a
righteous cause.
Our good friend, Mr.. Medford'
President of the Huntington Pro
hibition Cub, furnished crooks
from his store to support the seats
and 0, those crooks where 0 where
are the crooks? Wait till we have
time to tell about them--next week
may be.
THE TRICK THE BAND PLAYED
was in harmony with all the mean
tricks of the trade.
The Huntington Band had been
spoken to by the managers OF the
meeting, and promised to play at

are taxed to their fullest capacity
with ample orders and work for
long time ahead.
So also with
JOHN COCHRAN,
Commission Lumber Merchant and
Contractor, who has but lately
started in separate business and is
now preparing to put planning and
other new machinery into his new
buildings.
And so is there no lack for some
thing to do in Huntington. Every
body wanting work can have it.
Among the most public spirited
men of the live city is
A. B. PALMER,
whose property seems to grow and
multiply in his hands as If by
magic, and whose heart and hand
is just as ready to relieve the needy
and help on any good cause. Just
now he is putting up fine brick,
business block, and gives the
Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton a splendid hall on the second
floor for five years free Of rent.
Perhaps we are little .fever'sh
over Huntington's boom, too much
SO to write coolly, but we do like
things with some stir about them,
and when we strike a town with
some enterprise and vim and buzz
in it, tits hard for US to get away
from it; so our readers needn't be
alarmed if they find us next week
still jubilating with Huntingtan's
! business men.

From the American RegiBter.l
The Tariff Question Made Plain.

The tariff is the political topic most
of all others talked about and least un-
derstood. There have been much idle
defamation and palaver about pro-
tective tariff; tariff for revenue with
incidental protection; tariff for rev
enue only and free trade. II is i'm
portant, indeed essential, to hayea dis
tinct and accurate conception of these
different phrases and distinction on
the subject.
l. A protective tariff is that which
makes protection the object, and rev.
enue the mere incident. This has
been illustrated by the tariff adopted
and advocated by the present Repub-
lican party in Congress, producing an
nually from one hundred to one hun
dred and fifty millions of dollars more
revenue than was required for the ex-
penditures of the Government, thus
showing protection to be the object
and revenue to be incidental merely.
2. A tariff for revenue with Incl.
dental protection, is that which makes
revenue the object, but in which pro-
tecting home industries is made mere
ly a resulting incident. This limited
to the necessities of the Government,
and adjusted IN its details with refer
ence to equality in the public burdens,
and also with view to foster and pro-
tect American industries and labor by
proper determinations, is, and has
ever been, the Democratic revenue
system for the support of the Federal
Government.
3. "a tariff for revenue only" is q
new phrase, introduced clandestinely,
and adopted by inadvertence in the
Democratic platform of 1880. The
special significance of this form of ex-
preston was to exclude and preclude
the idea Of, or attention to Incidental
| encouragement to home productive in
{ dustry and labor. And the most pal
pable objection to it has been found in
the fact, that it afforded the Republi-
can leaders an opportunity of perver.
ting and misrepresentlng the true and
actual position of the Democracy on
, the tariff.
4. Free trade. This, if it means
what 1t says, would require the sup
, port of the Federal Government by di
recs'taxatlon, which the people are op-
posed to. The foreign producer, and
} those interested in foreign productions,
including the importers and vendors
} of articles of foreign production,
} would favor direct taxation. But the
} great body of the people are against it.
If free-trade as revenue policy does
} not mean this, then it is an equivocal
and cabalistic phrase, calculated to de-
ceive and mislead, and is especially
Objectionable as giving to political op-
ponents an opportunity of misrepre-
sentiug the position of the Democracy
on the tariff question.
These distinctions seem to- be es-
/ sential to o correct understanding oi
J the subject. The protective tariff, or,
as it is sometimes called, the high pro

Children who have little money
ought to practice saving something.
Many boys of to-day hardly know a
higher use for any money that comes
into their hands than spending it for
some foolish thing as quickly as posi-
BILE. To such, lesson of self denial
and economy is important. AS go the
boys pennies and dimes, SO very likely
will go the mans dollars and hun
dreds, by and by. Without having
the spirit of miser, the person ac-
customed to save has more pleasure in
laying up than the spend.thrift ever
knows, The way to keep money is to
earn it fairly and honestly. Money SC
obtained is pretty certain to abide by

THE ONDEST MAN DIED.
Jonah Blizzard Dies ut the Age of
125 Years,


CENrERvrLLE, o., May S.-There has
just died at his home in this town
ship, Guernsey county, a colored man
named Jonah Blizzard, who was with.
out doubt the oldest citizen of Ohio
and probably the Oldest citizen in the
United States. Mr.. Blizzard was born
near Norfolk, Virginia, about the
year l75? or 1853, and he was conse-
quently l25 years old when he depart
ed this life. He was resident of
Ohio for four score years, as he came
to this section while it was yet howl
ing wilderness and long before Ohio
was made State. He had generally
enjoyed good health until the last
few years Of his life and his facul-
ties one by one seemed to give way as
the march of time stole over him. His
death removes from Ohio her oldest
citizen. t

TRAMPs.-It Is we'll that our people
should keep a lookout for tramps and
suspicious-looking strangers roaming
the country. Men who are able to
tramp are able to work, and none need
remain idle. And especially at this
season of the year it is not charity to
feed such. There is an outpour Of the
vicious and idle element from our
large cities into the country at this
season Of the year, because it is easier
to live without labor in the country
during warm weather, and there are
more opportunities to give range to
their vicious propensities without de.
faction tban, there are in the city. Our
exchanges are filed with paragraphs
