TIVE New York Times, conceded to be the most
practical exponent of Republican thought among
the New York city Journals delivers the follow
ing plain talk to Republicans: Is protection,
then, fetch? Does wor-hip at its shrine de-
priye men of all common sense and business
foresight? Must community that has once
accept d it abandon all thought of change, and
become forever incapacitated to accommodate
itself to those laws, according to which chau ge
is the inevitable condition and the essent al
cause Of prosperity? 1t is sheer nonsense 10
talk of Mr. Carlisle as a radical free trader
1t is as silly and about as honest as it was to
present him as rabid southeruer because he
lives in town just south of Cincinnati He is
not even advocate for tariff for revenue only.
Judging by his utterances and his votes-and
they are many and consistent-he simply
believes in the gradual return to a rational and
normal rate of taxation on imports; he believes
that taxes levied twenty years ago in the stress
of war, largely to offset internal taxes which
have been lorg since abolished, should not be
continued. Is this revolutionary?

BROOKLYN, N. Y, seems to possess no advan-
tage over st. Paul in the enjoyment Of the per-
eonal safety of citizens who walk abroad in the
early evening hours. A night or two since, Rev.
John Owen Bochl, rector OF Grace church, Har-
lem, while walking in First street was caught,
choked and robbed of money, watch and jewelry
to the value of about s3,0Gc. 1t is feared the
unfortunate mans injuries may prove fatal.
But eastern civilization lacks one element vigor
GUS western society possesses. There the au-
thors of such an offense as this one, and others
of graver character, including murder, are
rarely found out. In the similar case transpir-
ing in this city the robbers were swiftly arrest
ed, tried and are now undergoing the penalty of
the crime they committed.

MR. CARLISLE, the new speaker is tall man
with slight stoop in the shoulders. He has a
very large head, high above the ears, with tre-
mendous indication of strength in his square
snooth-shaven jaws. His complexion Is sal
low-the dead pallor of a close student His
eyes are a keen blue, deeply set under bushy
eyebrows. His nose is CROSS between Gre
clan and Roman. His mouth is large and firm
In its lines. His hair is dark brown and is Just
beginning to be thin on tho crown. Ee wears
the conventional loose-ftting broadcloth suit
worn by the average public man. He apparent
ly never gives single thought of what he has
on, but his appearance is always neat and the
very reverse OF carelessness. He is very simple
and Democratic IN his manners, but is never ia
m1l.ar with any one. No one would ever dream
OF taking liberty with Carlisle, while the hum
blest would be at ease in his presence. He is
forty eight years old and possesses modest
fortune, although not sufficient to support him
without the income from his law practice. which
is considerable.

QUITE an excitement prevails among the press
OF Montana on the subject of the pubic
printing. In 1876 the legislature passed an act
placing in the hands of the governor, president
of the council and speaker of the house the
power to contract, at certain specified rates with
some person or persons to do all public printing
in the several counties of the territory and to
publish all legal notices. This contract was to
run for two years. 1t has regularly been re-
newed at the end of each term of two years in
every county in which a paper is published.
Last week, however, Chief Justice Wade decided
that the law was framed to operate during only
the two years next following its adoption, and
that it has ever since been dead letter. A num-
Der OF papers which have subsisted only through
the pay they received by this county subsidy
will feel the deprivation of that source of in
come very seriously. In some of the new coun-
ties the taxpayers have been bled in very high
sums OF money, publisher in Custer county
having on one occasion charged and received
II, 400 for work which an outsider had offered to
perform for $3.50.

A Hired BrIdesroOm-The Strange Mar
 riase that Took Place in an Erie Court.
 ERIE, Dec. "A young lady of refined ap peArRnce giving the name of Amelia A. Royse, of Cincinnati, accompanied by man ten years her senior, shsbbily dressed and evi- dently her social inferior, giving his name as Charles Traynor. of Utica, N. Y, entered the court of Judge Freeman yesterday and an neunced her desire to be united in bonds of wedlock, her companion meanwhile standing beside her the picture of sheepishness After the preliminary questions were asked the marriage rite was performed and the judge declared them man and wife. The lady then turned ts her husband and quietly but cold ly intimated that he would lose his train if he wasted too much time. The hint was un- dsrstood and the man bidding the lady good bye left the room After his departure the lady, remarking to the judge that some expla- nation was due him of the strange procedure, said: '"There is nothing wrong in all this; no crime, no despair, nothing tragic. l am simply putting it out of my power to say yes to the only man on earth it would please and hurt me most to marry. For private reasons cannot marry this gentleman with out bringing great sorrow upon him and me in the future and to place myself beyond the reach of temptation I have. married this stranger. This is all there is in is. It is not likely I shall see this man Trsynor again. He perfectly under stands that he was hired to marry me and then go about his business" After request ing the judge to inform the newspapers of the marriage and to forward copies of the newspapers to the Baltimore Sun, Washing ton Critic and Denver Tribune and laying Y7in0 ay1t "a foh ha 1afv 1afE courtroom. The judge suspects that Royse is not her real nams or Cincinnati her homo and that insanity is the trouble she feared to bring upon herself and the man she loves.

SCHBMBRS. -:O:-

The hackneyed phrases Of ''selling at cost" stthe manufacturer'i price for everything" and many ether obsolete devices and cheap clothing tricks ara no longer tolerated by firms who are keen enough to drop them sev- eral years ago. When this country was in condition bordering on poverty, so to speak, the catchy announcements were read and be- lieved by nine-tenths of the people, when in reality the statements contained about twen. ty per cent. of truth and eighty per cent. of exsggeration. At the present time we are glad to say that only ns-tenth of the people are led to believe that the so-called great re- ductIons of thirty to forty per cent. are gem uine. Like charity, we will admit that dealers who indulge in this style of advertising have made truthful statements. Their customers who bought goods previous to the time of reduction must have paid thirty to forty per cent. profit, and perhaps little more, not deducted, to help pay large rent or incident al expenses. It must be borne in mind that expenses govern prices, especially in this city, where competition is quite strong, and the volume of trade limited to it's own precincts, including a few country towns. Therefore we believe that all thinking people will read. fly perceive that Oak Hall is clothing store of the happy medium order, and the manage ment is proud in being able to truthfully an- nounce that the business up to the present time has been exceptionally fine, which is partially due to the fact, that expenses gov ern prices, and both are low in
