don't understand, that the politicians can
fool with, and play battledore with in the
next campaign.
The evidence of the ignorance of the
general public, in fact almost everybody.
on this subject was we'll illustrated in the
last presidential campaign, when by the as
sertion of the Republicans that the Demo
cratic party were the advocates of a non
protective tariff and that under it wages
would be reduced, they persuaded the In
dianians to rush blindly into their ranks,
and elevate taxation on quinine, the one
article of their home consumption on
which, from the quantities consumed,
every mothers son of them was personally
interested to have the tariff entirely taken
off.
The people of this country certainly
should have free trade in all articles which
their necessities require for food and
health, and on all raw articles for manu-
facture, and in other matters on which
they might vote intelligently they certain
ly should have good square commercial
and non-partisan education from their
best business minds.
In this age of associations, amalgama-
tions and the gathering together of men
for the forwarding of mutual interests, a
gathering of the practical commercial
minds of the north, south, east and west in
national convention, to compare opinions
and to settle upon tariff and free trade
questions from the standpoint of prac-
tlcal observation and experience and pro-
mulgate the result of their deliberations
broadcast for the nations highest interest.
would remove this great and vital question
from the political arena in which it has
been used as football by both parties
for the past fifty years, and give the world
of commerce and business a welcome,
grateful rest.
Such action would remove from the
fields of our political action the comforting
party matadors who shake the blood red
mantles of danger of political tariff and
free trade in the eyes of the people in the
attempt to vote them on a basis of fear
rather than of fact, and by this prevent
them with their suffreges from securing
the reforms in government in which
they stand at this moment in perilous

Angeles united in public declaration that
they would perform the marriage service
for no divorced person except the innocent
party to divorce granted for scriptaral
reasons. This is step we'll taken in the
direction of quickening the public con-
science. Not that it will directly
result in removing suits of
divorce from the courts, or
particularly hinder divorced persons from
remarrying,.for there are plenty of clergy
men who are not as Spartan-minded as the
eight of Los Angeles, but the stand taken is
a starting point for the growth of public
sentiment through which the lax legal
and moral abuse of marriage may be some
what remedied. At the sitting of the Dio-
cesan convention of Northern Ohio, lat Cleve-
land last week, the subject of divorce was
extensively discussed and expressions made
by resolution to the effect that divorce
should never be granted except for aduI-
terry. A resolution was adopted requesting
the president of the convention, Bishop
Bedell, to communicate with other rscog-
nized bodies of other denominations in
that state, in order to secure united action
upon the subject. 1t is to be hoped the
movement thus begun will find general CO.
operation. If clergymen will take their
stand, as in the cases cited, there will be
lay support of great moral weight, and a
legal reform instituted which the public
conscience will sustain.

The Y. Nj. G.. A.

The twenty seventh anniversary of the
Young Mems Christian Association of the
city of st. Paul was held last evening at
the House of Hope church. Owing to the
rain the attendance was very slim. The
order of exercises consisted of singing,
prayer, reading of scriptures, the reading
of the treasurer's and presidents report
and an address by Rev. Robert West, Chi
cago, ILL.,, on 'Christ's Kingdom on Earth"
The two reports were up to the first of
June and were printed at the time in the
GLOBE. Financially the association
is in very satisfactory condition,
but, like all such organizations,
1t needs good deal more
money TO enable it to accomplish what it
wants to do. 1t is an association that has
marked out for itself good deal of work,
but it cannot accomplish all it wants to,
or all it seeks to without several thousand
dollars, and the point in hand is to get
the necessary money. It is to be hoped
the gentlemen interested in
this matter will succeed
in their endeavor and that the money will
be forthcoming from some source.

BUT LITTLE UNDERSTOOD.

If there is any question the American
people do not understand, but over which
they will go wild about as quick as
wild bull over red rag, it is the tariff and
free trade question.
Set dozen of the most commercially
educated minds to work for their opinion
on this vexed question and they will come
in with dozen different opinions, at
variance with each other as perfectly as
though they had started in with the pur-
pose of determining how far they could
get apart in ARRIVING at conclusions.
When tariff matters are adiudicated
upon in congress, the work is done by a
committee who are for the most part made
up of men skilled in legal lore, but with as
much practical knowledge of the CONNER
cial wants of the union as a whole, as a
country blacksmith is of the intricate and
delicate machinery of detached lever or
cylinder escapement.
The fact of it is the American people
are too busy in forwarding the great en-
terprise and growth of the country, either
by the threshing of keen intellect or with
the vigor of the brawny arm to settle down to
the attempt at thorough solution of this
vexed question, and their passing it over to
the adjudication of statesmen with full as
little understanding of the subject as them
selves, if not less, leaves them in heather
darkness from the close of one presidential
term to the conclusion of another, and so
on ad infinitum.

be concomitant, the tariff seems to
