Tariff Revision Not Free Trade.

Tariff revision is good, but free trade is
simply free ruin for this country. We have
a right to protect our manufacturers, and by
so doing protect the workman as we'll as his

is there not wider difference still between
master and man in that home of free trade

MIR. BARWIcK,s COMPLAINT,

When young man brings suit against a
woman for breach OF promise an unsympa-
thetic world looks upon his claim for dam
ages with derision. Few people can be found
who believe that the heart of the youth of
the period receives any permanent injury,
though scornfully cast back into his bosom
by a score of tickle beauties i'll turn. Nor is
it often proved that he has been led astray
by the girl under promise of marriage, and
then basely left with his moral character
blackened and his future prospects of mat
rimony blasted. Tender-hearted juries are
willing to grant pecunary compensation
been blighted, though they are not always
able to set the same high value upon them
that the injured girl herself is likely to do
The Tilted young man hasa not received the
same consideration when he has appealed to
the law; but Mr.. Barwick, of New York,
is going to have all this changed
$4,000 heartlessly broke her marriage en-
gagement with him, and sent him about his
business. Mr.. Barwick lays little stress upon
his broken heart, as he is evidently aware
that his possession of such an organ will be
disputed but puts his demand for $4,000
damages upon practical basis, which will
appeal at once to every true man.. He says
Miss McLean's conduct made him sick for
several days. Any man who has been sick
for several days knows that no small sum of
money can compensate him for his sufferings
Any one who has been unfortunate enough
to live in the same house will willingly testify
that such companionshiD could only be made
endurable at the rate of 800 an hour as re-
Enumeration. This claim will of itself be sure
to touch the hearts of the jury, but his final
appeal will go right to their pockets, the
most vulnerable point One of the
days while Mr. Barwick lay sick
was day he had fixed for
investment in certain mining stocks, which,
contrary to the depressing habit OF most
mining stocks, proceeded at once to rise, and
soon reached an altitude which was beyond
his reach. Among his losses occasioned by
Miss McLean's despicable conduct, Mr.. Bar
wick very reasonably places the profit he
would have made on the stock, which she
prevented him from buying. Mr.. Barwick
has affections, but puts no fancy price upon
them. He is content to omit sentimental
ties and to place his case before jury of his
peers, sure that upon plain business princi-
Piles they will see a large slice of Miss
McLean's fortune to be his simple due. If
the jury does its duty the result may have a
far-reaching effect in checking the growing
tendency of wealthy young ladies to reject
suitors whose eyes have become so dazzled
with glimpses of future opulence that an ILL
ness of several days follows fading of the
vision. Young women need to be taught a
lesson, and here is the opportunity.

COLONEL GEORGE n. BUTLER was recently

in such state of maudlin iDtoxication that, on
arrival, he was carted to the hospital Since

General Terry wrote for his discharge, but the
General of the Army says "This man was ap-
pointed for the purpose of developing the latent
good there is in him. Let him be subjected to
severe course of discipline. Send him to Jail,
put ball and chain on him, shoot him If neces-
sary, but don't discharge him." This will strike
the mind OF the ordinary citizen as rather a re-
markaDle ruling. Colonel Butler will be remem-
Dered as the Consul to Egypt who, some years
ago, made himself notorious and brought dis
credit upon his countrymen by his disgraoeful
conduct there. The latent evil in his disposition
seems to have developed freely at government
expense, and If the good is there 1t must
have been deeply buried not to have dis
covered itself sooner. Perhaps the General
of the Army proceeds upon the theory that hav-
ing tried every form Of depravity, Butler must
necessarily take the road which leads to good
behavior. Viewed in the light of this order the
army may be considered an inebriate asylum, or
reform school for disreputable characters who
are suspected of latent goodness. Colonel Butler
is nephew of Governor Ben Buter-a misfor-
tune of the latter rather than a fault.

Miss ANNA MORSE, of Lawrence. Mass, a pro-
fessional restorer of health oy faith, seems to
have lost the combination. James W. Howarth,
OF Concord, N. H., sufferer from asthmatic
complaints, recently placed himself under her
treatment After several calls from her, during
which time his condition varied, last Friday he
felt worse and summoned Miss Morse. At her
request she was left alone with him six hours,
administering treatment by gazing intently in
his face. At the expiration of that time Howarth
lost confidence, ordered regular physician, but
died before help could be afforded. The physi-
clan said he died from exhaustion, caused by
the protracted agony in which the woman had
kept him during the hours. The marvel is
that Mr.. Howarth didn't die sooner. Stared at
six hours by womanI The head of Medusa
would be pleasing in comparison with having to
be stared to death without recompense.

cerdsr Pool. Many witnesses were absent.
The district attorney asked for eontinu-
anee, while the counsel for the accused op-
posed continuance. The judge decided
to 90 on with the hearing. The testimony
is voIuminous and conflicting. Most of
the witness ss present at the polls when
the disturbance occurred knew little about
it. The NEST important testimony was
given by Col. Jno. Augustin, city editor of
the Times Democrat II was at she Seventh
ward poll between l o'clock and 1 80 p. m.

to move about, retraoed my steps and
stood almost opposite the poll. I saw

the act of firing. Houston was six or
seven PAGES to the left of Captain Fortier.
Captain Fortier fired at Houston. The
