The Greedy Camp Horror.

The Greedy Camp Horror.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Let us admit that the worst conceivable horrors of Greely's camp at Cape Sabine, as paraded before and Haunted in the public eye by the New York Times, are strictly and wholly true. What then? That enterprising newspaper has no legitimate reason to be proud of it's last journalistic achievement. Placed as these heroic men were, would any member of the Times staff have proved him self less cannibalistic than the others? Did the Times do anything to help these devoted and suffering models of courage support the hickering spark of life in any more accepta- ble and less revolting waya Does the Times were cannibals from choice? And if not, why put them in quasi position of self 'defence2 Why harrow the feelings of the families of the dead in order to pocket some dirty dollars? Ghoulish gain! Why does this newspaper display would-be clever de- tective ability in exposing what generous and refined nature would take infinite pains to conceal? The fullest revelations the Times can root out and publish can do nothing but harm except to it's own coffers. Its revo1ting headlines are sensational and profitable for itself at the expense of the feelings of every member of every family concerned.
 There is not a relative of any of those who per1Sned 1n the tragic e4peulUlon WHO Wou1u begrudge the hfe-sustaining flesh of their rel atives when life had fled, but let the horrid details end there. Let the survivors return and enjoy in peace their hard won and mad equate honors Let the comfortable, stay at home writers of the Times spill their ink and coin their coppers in cleaner manner and on a subject of legitimate general interest, and spare the feelings of the public and of the unhappy family twice bereaved through their selfish and Satanic greed
 It is possible that General Hazen may have been erring in judgment, may have been even instrumental in causing all this sad suffering, but that he did so Intentionally and with malice prepense, and is therefore criminally responsible, as the Times has charged, not all the ad captandum headlines which this paper can conceive and produce will succeed in making the public believe. This same truth discerning public reads between the lines and notices the evident spite which follows and pursues General Hagen in the columns of this usually conservative and judicious daily. This newspaper exposes some personal griey- ance against General Hagen which the public does not share. If the Times is well-advised it will at once cease nauseating the public and giving itself away. F.

FACTS FOR FREE TRADERS.

The free traders howl and howl, but they don't pay much attention to facts, for the very good reason that facts are largely against them. Some of these facts are very striking, especially those which show the progress made in manufacturing in this country dur ing the protection period.
 The official record shows that from 1850 to 1860 the capital invested in manufacturing enterprise increased in round numbers $476,- GOO, GOO. The value of the total product in creased $966, 900, 900. The wage total in creased s142, 900, 900. This was 8 decade of free trade It was also decade of unbroken peace.
 From 1860 to 1870 may be regarded pro- lection period. The total manufacturing capital increased during that decade S1, ,109, 900, 900, or double its increase from 1850 to 1860. The total product increased 8, 347, 900, 900, or twice and three-fourths times the increase from 1850 to 1860 The wage total increased $397, ,O0O, 900, or two and half times the increase from 1850 to 1860. These are the facts, in round numbers, for one free trade decade and one decade of pro lection. The free trade decade was a decade of peace, and half of the protective decade was distracted by the greatest war of modern times.
 By the year 1870 our men of enterprise had invested nearly as much capital in plant as the state of the commercial world would war rant, and the progress of investment in mills and machinery is less from that time to 1880. But there was healthful progress even during the last. From 1870 to 1880 the capital in- vested increased s67e, 900, 900, or thirty-three per cent. more than it increased from 1850 to 1860. The total product increased S1, 137, 100000, seventy-five per cent. more than it increased from 1850 to 186O The total wage increased $172, 900, 900, twenty per cent. more than ii increased from 1850 to 196O The last de eade saw great panic, the outcome of dis tempers engendered by civil war, yet the progress of industrial development, despite the panic, was much more marked than ii ever was during peace and free-trade policy.
 This is very impressive showing as re- gards the progress of manufacturing under protection. The facts relating to agriculture foreign commerce, the development of min eral lands, etc., are equally impressive and disagreeable to free traders.

is positively unique in this combination of puritan and crusader, humanitarian and sol- dier, revolutionist and man of order, idealist and man of affairs, that our times have seen The diversified influences flowing from this heterogeneous experimentation of antithetica qualities act and react upon his mind with al most bewildering result. Never was there any man so difficult to follow, or so easy to understand FtGordon," said one who knew him we'll, was created for the express pur- pose of confounding all newspaper editors. He never says the same thing twice or sticks to one opinion two hours together. Yet, by those who are capable of looking below the surface and clearing away the apparent in constituencies, there will be found clear sil- yer thread of consistent purpose running through all his impulsive vagaries of thought and expression" To the creatures of routine and humdrum General Gordon is sheer lunatic. To the official with his red tape and straight lace he is bete noire.A man who is constantly saying and doing the most para doxical things, whose mind is quicksilver, and whose life is dominated by curious combination of the religious principles of Cromwell and Thomas a Kempis, is indeed an incomprehensible phenomenon to the dwellers on the well-ordered realm of com monplace Those who have no faiths, but only habits are naturally at a loss to account for man of admitted genius whose convic- tions are the oldest tumble of enthusiasms that can be imagined. A Governor-General of the Soudan, who interrupts his administra- tive duties in order to try to nurse starving little black baby back into life; the patron saint of the Anti-slavery society, who legiti- matizes the slave-trade by decree and re- solves upon appointing the king of the slave traders as sovereign of Khartoum, is not man to be described by any formula; he must be classed by himself So men who have not tithe of his administrative genius, or his shrewd political sagacity, shrug their shoulders and say that Gordon is mad. And, of course, if they themselves are the type of true sanity, they right; but if so, then he is one of those madmen whose madness is of the nature of inspiration. Gordon's eccen- tricity, of which many strange stories are told, his impulsiveness, his unreasoning gen erosity, do not in the least impair the mar valousinfuence which he seems to exert on all with whom he comes in contact

PortraIt of chinese Gordon.

From an Article by W. T. Stead in August Century
 In person General Gordon is slight and short His appearance is more suggestive of activity than stateliness, and nothing can be more unassuming than his manner. There is a beautiful child-hke simplicity about his smile, which recalls, by certain curious as sociation of ideas, the impression produced by the first sight of Mir. Carlyle. But there is something about his lower face suggestive of latent hardness" of will that can be of iron, and of decision that shrinks not at hewing Agag in pieces before the Lord, should the necessity unfortunately arise. In him sympathy as impulsive and as tender as that of a woman is united with the fierceness and daring of an ancient Viking. The man

 Congressman Campbell, of Pennsylvania, is an ardent Blaine man and predicts that the Republicans will make gain of five Congressman in his State. He says that all the old feuds are buried and that the Cam eron faction will support Blaine cordially.
