In the days of Andrew Jackson hard
ly public man possessed the luxury Of
a private secretary, to say nothing of a
shorthand amanuensis. Now there is
scarce a man in public life of any prom
nance who has not photographic Sec
rotary accompanying him on all occa-
sions. Every senator has private sec
rotary, paid from the public funds, and
an attempt was made, that failed, to
give every representative a secretary at
the expense of the people.

THE pRoHIBIofoN MEMORIAL
Mr.. Donnan of Town presented the follow
ing memorial, which, after along discussion
was read by the secretary;
We, members of the womans Christian Tenn
perance union Of the states herein represented
by the signatures of our officers, believe that
while the personal habits OF the nation can be
largely restrained By an appsal TO to the intel
lect, through argument TO the heart, through
sympathy, and to the conscience through the
motives of religion, the traffic in those poisOns
will be best controlled by prohibitory law. We
believe the teachings OF science, experience and
the golden rule combine 10 testify against the
traffic IN alcoholic liquors as drink
of patriotism, purity and happiness, have no
enemy so relentless as the American saloon.
Therefore, as citizens OF the United States,
irrespective of sect or section, but having
deeply at heart the protection of our homes, we
do hereby respectfully and earnestly petition
Won to advocate and adopt such measures as are
requisite to the end that prohibition of the i'm
partation, expectation, manufacture and sale
of alcoholic beverages may become an
Integral part of the national constitution, and
that your party candidate shall be by character
and public pledge committed to a national pro-
hibitory constitutional amendment. lSignedl,
Francis E. Willard president; Caroline b. Buell.

recording secretary; L. NJ. Stevens, assistant
secretary: Esther Pugh treasurer.

Twenty per cent. reduction from the
present low tariff, on all our most
important manufactures, and the abo.
lition Of specific duties entirely in all
cases where the advalorum system can
be made to apply, This, if we are not
mistaken will make the rate OF duties
lower by a considerable margin than
those of Walkers tariff of 1916 and
about the same as the last Democratic
tariff-that of 1857. The effect Of it
may be illustrated by the result in one
kind Of goods. The tariff os last
March reduced the duties on steel
railway bars to S1700 per ton, and
the result was that the importation
was largely increased. This bill will
reduce it to $3.50 per ton and be
substantially no protection at all.
How they expect to reduce the reve.
nue. by bill that must substantially
close the mills, unless it be by max
ing the country so poor our people
cannot buy, is puzzle to all unless
it may be to the free trade journals.
Of course this egregiOUs folly cannot
become law, until the Democrats
control the Senate and the President
as well as the House but suppose they
succeed this fall then it will be real.

men and farmers, without whose help
they cannot succeed, may expect as
the result of their victory they have
only to look back to the very last
loan a Democratic administration
asked for, We think to meet the ex.
penses of Harney's Mormon expedi-
ton. Five millions was wanted, and
average bid was II per cent interest.
No borrowing then by the nation of
hundreds of millions at 3 per cent,
