The people would not rebel against
a high tariff, if there was fair divide.
The so-called protective tariff of the
Republican party protects the manu-
facturer only and assists him not only
to build up monopoliss but to compel
the wOrkingmcn to work for just what
wages he may feel disposed to pay, OF
to compel them to compete with im-
ported cheap labor brought over on
contract.

somn QUESTIONS.


h'is, Demscrat
Please allow me space in your paper
70 ask The directors Of the Linn county
Agricultural Society . few questions.
lat., DO they intend 10 hold fair on
the society's grounds this fall, or are
they goitIg to suppress the action of the
stock holders meetings, which decided
at both meetings 10 have fairf
The grAngers of this county are very
anxious that there DO fair this fall.
Numbers Of them have stock TO exhibit.
Such ~ cattle, hogs and sheep, which
are very troublesome TO take 10 the
State lair, on account Of the distance.
/ was in Albany short time ago, and
while In conversation with some Of the
citizens, learned that the fence around
the grounds was in O diIapidated condi-
tion-not sufficient to hold fair. II
this is the case, why do not the board
Of directors assess the stock at once, and
repair the fence and nut premium list
ont, as the country people would like 20
know short time before, what IL going
70 be competed for, or whether IL will
pay 10 DC up stock and other articles
10 exhibit, N Il requires some time to
do this.
An early answer 10 the above in de-
sirable TO the CHANGERS Of this county.

Amusss.

WnEnR abuses creep into the public
service. It is the duty Of the public press
to point them out, and then il Is che
duty Of the people to call upon their
public servants to correct them. Abuses
Of loug standing have existed and do
exist, in the customs service, aud the
attention Of the people was called to
this matter years ago, but nothing as
yet has been done to correct them. We
deem it our duty TO lay these matters
before our readers for their intelligent
and candid consideration. Ia the Uni
ted States there are City ports of entry
where the cost Of collecting the custom
duties exceeds The amount collected in
the proportion of more than three to
one. Il seems that these ports are kept
up more for the benefit Of the eco ofli-
cials who have charge Of them, than for
the benefit of the public Treasury. At
Frenchman's Bay, Maine, ii costs s4.-
7030 90 per year to maintain and pay
the salaries of the six officials who have
charge of that port while they collect
s22s.l6 per year. This is evidently
one of the business ways of carrying on
the government that John Sherman
used to boast of. At Little Egg Har-
Dor. New Jersey, the cost of maintain
ing the custom house is S3,esl.lS per
yearIwhils net single cent was collect
ed. Now the ordinary man of business
unlearned in the ways in which Re
publican leaders manipulate.the machin-
cry of government for the purpose o.
perpstuating the pewsr of that party
viii naturally inquire, il no customs
duties are collected at Little Egg Har'
Dor, why should five faithful nachin,
Republicans be kept there each on I
liberal salary, while the whole business
might be easily performed by one OFF,
cial. At Albemarle, n. c., the expens'
Of maintaining the custom house iss5.
407, ,93 while nothing Is collected. Thii
custom house Is in charge of six worthy
gentlemen who receiye liberal salaries
for deing nothing. At Burlington, 10
wa, they have customs officer vh'
receives SI94 per year while the duties
be collects amounts to s39.32. That i
; ths government pays out s494 to col
lect s39.32. Now We might 60 OF
through the entire lisr, out the exam
pies here given will suffice to show Oul
readers what the others in the list ara
The general extravaganza and lavish
unauthorized use Of public funds ar'
the stumbling blocks over which the Re
publican party is now sumbling to piec
ez. The great Ledy of the voters o.
that party are opposed to this prevail
ing tendency in the party but tLey are
powerless to act. The machinery oi
the party is in the hands of leaders who
know no other way of keeping the par.
ty in power than through the means Of
the above fraudulent methods. No
wonder the fidelity of the rank and Gle
of that party is being 70 fsasiuIly aba-
ken.

Autograph.Hunters' Ways.

The humble enthusiasts who collect
contemporary autographs are a sore
trial to the patience and morality of
men of letters Their persistency is
Malignant their lodges are subtle and
inscrutable. Not long ago determined
and impudent Yankee boy by his'often
coming, like that of The importunate
widow, ''drew' the autographs of near
ly all famous contemporary English
men. He then published an account of
his achievements. School boys are
usually most persistent in this form of
sport. 1t was probably school boy
who won the most difficult and Sex
elusive" autograph of all by pretending
to be a shipmaster who wanted to
christen vessel after a great man, and
wrote to ask his permission. Persecu-
ton of this sort is excessively grateful
to the budding literateur who is care
fully nursing feeble reputation by
judicious paragraphs of gossip in the
literary papers. a But to the man of es-
tablished fame the letters of the auto
graph-hunter are as disagreeable as the
begging letters of parsons and the cir
culars of coal merchants and gold-min-
ing companies to the ordinary citizen.
He becomes ferociously cOntemptuous,
and employs secretary, refusing au-
tographs to all but the most cunning
applicants. Sometimes this kind of
st. Anthony yields to the autograph
hunting devil in the form of a fair woman.
But this surliness makes the auto
graphs that do not come into the mar
ket fetch fancy price. AS conse-
quence, and disagreeable one, it is
possible occasionally to see the most
private and intimate and unconvention-
al letters of great men stuck up in the
windows of the autograph shops. If
the autographs were common, these
documents would probably never come
into the market, where, indeed, they
ought never to be seen. Autograph
forging is naturally large and thirty
ing trade. One collector specially
bought books containg the signatures
of the early Observation-Disclosures, Mel
ancthon, and so forth. 1t was two mems
business to supply him, but on his death
the forgeries became worthless. The
rarest of all autographs is that of Moliere.
The longest is six lines, and is receipt
for money. M. Soleirol had probably
number of forged autographs of Moliere;
his whole collection was ''bogus' as
sortment of frauds. One genuine and
interesting signature, on Corneille's
'Imitatio Christi" was cut off the fly
leaf and lost by country bookbinder.
An example is said to have been bought
for a few pence in America. The cheaper
the book with an autograph picked up
at stall the better the chance that the
handwriting is genuine. 1t is not worth
while to forge name, and sell name,
book, and all for 4d. The idea-prev-
alent among British tourists-that the
Venetus A manuscript of the '1liad,"
in the library of ST. Marks, is in Ho-
mer's own autograph scarcely needs to be
exploded. Were it otherwise, the man.
uscript might be contemplated with
more than "some little pleasure" But
it must be admitted that the taste of the
undergraduates as at present INDUCED
in, does not add to the greatest happi-
ness of the greatest number.-Lomdon

How n Monkey Bushes.

Mr. Darwin remarks the fact noticed
by Mr.. Sutton, that the face of the
MdcacuS rhesus, when much enraged,
grows red. Mr.. Darwin himself saw
the face of this monkey redden when
attacked by another monkey, and he
also adds that the ''seat-pads" also
seemed to redden under the influence Of
anger, although he could not ''posi-
lively assert that this was the case"
My monkey Jenny, when in rage,
blushed most distinctly. Aired hue shot
over and obscured the normal yellow
tint of the skin CT the face, and noticed
that the ''seat-pads" occasionally also
grew redder. Another curious factcon-
corning this monkeys behavior when
enraged consisted in the variations she
exhibited when she was irritated by my
self and by another person. If irritated
by another person she behaved as
already described; she shook the cage
and chartered while her face flushed
like that of human being in anger.
If, on the other hand, / had occa-
sion to reprove her, she darted
down to the bottom of the cage, lay
down on her belly, and, as often as not,
COhSCdlCo nCI ldCC Ill JuC oOiaW. AhO
analogybetween that Ineffective or sup
pressed rage in a human being, which
is shown by the person throwing HIM
self down on the ground-a feature
seen Familiarity in some children--and
the behavior of Jenny under my reproof
appears to me to be too exact to escape
notice. Paddy, the Capuchin, on the
contrary, when enraged or frightened
used to retire to corner of the cage
and stand on his head, uttering mean
while the most plaintive cries in the
well-known shrill but musical voice of
the race. On one occasion, when SER
want had allowed Paddy to imbibe nearly
half a glassful Of champagne, he showed
his alcoholic dissipation by standing in
anely on his head and vainly endeavor-
ing to emit his familiar cry. Mr.. OAR
win mentions the case of a young female
chimpanzee who, when enraged, ''pre-
sented curious example to a child in
the same state. She screamed loudly
with widely open mouth, the lips being
retracted so that the teeth were fully
exposed. She threw her arms wildly
about, sometimes clasping them over
her head. She rolled on the ground,
sometimes on her back, sometimes on
her belly, and bit everything within
reach. THE Ges,tIenodn's Magazine.
