Already nearly two hundred delegates
to the Republican Convention which will
meet in Chicago, on June Sd, 1884. United
States officials of every description are ON
hand, and are very sanguine that Arthur will
be nominated ON the second ballot. Senator
Sherman appears to he the dark horse. 1t can
be authoritatively stated that Gen. Sherman
willnot accept the nomination A prominent
Democrat discussing the nomination of Til
den says that that gentleman is as strong
mentally as he was years ago, and that the
Democratic party is better organized than it
has ever been before, that the event depends
upon the way New York goes, and that Til
den can carry his own state.

The Tariff as Seen by a Farmer.

! have been reading several speeches
recently delivered IN Congress upon the
tariff question, at intervals while hoeing
the beans, potatoes and other crops, that
of our own member in particular, and |
find his very pronounced, straightfor-
ward speech; sometimes right, but
wrong, think, in going for high pro-
tective tariff for the people of this dis
trict, whose wishes he processes TO repre-
sent in congress.
Being mostly farmers whose products
cannot be protected to any beneficial
extent, We want no class legislation or
favoritism; if protection is right for one
it is right for all, and we wish it applied
to agriculture as well as manufacturers;
to wheat, corn, OATS vegetables, animals,
meats, etc. which articles have to 60 out
into the markets of the world to find pur
chasers, as we always have surplus at
home, making any import duty that
may exist on our products OF no service
in our case from this fact.
We want cheap trousers and blankets;
we want them at what it costs to make
them and get them to us, without unnat-
ural hinderance or barriers; instead of
paying one dollar and forty cents for ev
cry dollars worth we buy.
This forty per cent. protective duty
amounts to about eight hundred million
dollars annually, for the whole country.
That is, it increases the cost on all the
manufactured goods consumed to that
extent, and as near as can be asoertained
the farmers pay fully one half of this, and
they who reap where we SOW, the manu-
facturer, aided by the politician, the Of
fice-holder and the demagogue, eXclaim:
Don't you see our prosperity protee-
ton does indeed build up the country"
Well, it may, but we don't rise with it;
and with continued unfriendiy class leg
islation our descent will be more noticea-
BILE, az our cheap lands fall into the hands
of capitalists and monopolists, and are
out of our reach forever.
The tariff case Invested of all obscure
coverings is, in nut shell, this; my
friend in England who buys my wheat
is a manufacturer and can afford me
pair of pants for three dollars, free trade;
but the government says you must pay
forty per cent over and above the three
dollars or YOU can't buy of that man. So
the pants cost me four dollars and twenty
cents, | however bought them Of my
neighboring manufacturer as the Eng
lishman cot scared out by the high tariff,
and the extra one dollar and twenty
cents went into the pocket of the manu-
facturer which this protective system
favored this much at my cost, and the
government gets nothing. And the man
who made and sold me the pants, buys
nv wheat at one dollar bushel, taking
four and one fifth bushels as pay for the
par is. instead of three bushels at one
dollar and forty cents bushel If protec-
ton were equal. Thus by bit of unjust
favoritisn the government compels one
| citizen to pay another one dollar and for
ty cents for every dollar that is due.

Mothers.

We take pleasure in recommending
to mothers an excellent and very ex.
ceptlonal medicine for their children.
No medicine should be given to a
child without the mother s full knowl-
edge of its character, Castoria is a
standard prescription Of a distinguish.
ed physician--old DR.. Pitcher-sti
living at Hyannis, Mass. 1t is purely
vegetable and is not narcotic. 1t
may be given without change of diet
or fear of harm, and in its effects is
superior to Paregoric, Morphine Syr-
ups, Castor Oil, without the danger
Gus properties Of the former or the
nauseating effects of the latter. Of
this preparation physicians speak in
high terms. III. A. Archer, M. d.,
Ill So. Oxford ST., Brooklyn, N. Y,
says; Castor ia is SO well adapted to
children that / recommend it as SUI
perior TO any prescription known to
me" Alex. Robertson, NJ. D., 1857

adapted to diseases of children

A novel and notable feature Of the
commencement exercises of the Nor
NAL School two weeks ago, which W rs
accidentally omitted from our report
at the time, was the exhibition of the
literary, manual and mechanical prog
ess of the pupils of the Model De-
partment. This exhibition was given
in the Grammar Room, and consisted
of the work Of pupils in the Primary
Room, Mrs. Louisa Parker, teacher,
the Intermediate Room, Miss Jean l..
Terry, teacher, and the Grammar
Room, Miss ZiIpha Hubbard, teacher,
the work being arranged progress
sively, showing the first attempts of
the little beginner in the Primary
room, with pencil or pen, needle or
knife, to bring order out OF disorder,
and from this beginning leading up
through the later periods Of instruc-
ton in the intermediate Grade, to the
more matured requirements Of a
Grammar Grade student.
In the matter OF Drawing, more
particularly, was the Improvement
noticeable. Many of the pupils of the
Grammar Grade had work on exhibit
ton showing their entire course,
from the crude attempts at drawing
lines and angles to the finished work
of art, the result of years of careful
training and growing knowledge.
A number of the young ladieso the
Intermediate and Grammar grades
contributed samples of their culinary
skill which were creditable to any
housekeeper. Miss Lawrence, Miss
Campbell, Miss Wood, the Misses
Cook, Miss Pratt and others were rep
resented in this department,
Altogether the display WAS novel
and instructive, giving better idea
of the scope of the instruction in the
various grades of the Model schools,
through the eye, than could possibly
be given orally. The kindergarten
feature of the primary institution is
beyond praise. and the fact that such
an institution is to be had in our
school ought to be sufficient induce
ment to cit the primary room to over
flowing. Before the brain of the chiiq
is prepared for the abstract instruc-
ton of the books, the little figures
and the bright eyes are ready for the
fascinating ''Study" Of form and coior
and symmetry; and with the form ard
color comes almost of itself the rudi-
ments of numbers and the principles
of geography.
Our people cannot better show their
Of the highest art of pri-
mary teaching than by visiting the |
Normal school and observing its work |
in this department, and sealing their |
Judgment by sending their little ones |
to the primary grade for instruction.
The exhibit was not confined alone |
to literary or artistic display. From |
each room was shown specimens OF |
the ha 1diwork of the pupils such as /
bead work, embroidery, braldlng, /
moulding in clay and mechanics. sew
eral pupils showed specimens OF their /

character were among the exhibits.
