In HARTFORD and Indianapolis the demo-
Gratis, in order, as they vainly supposed, to
strengthen their tickets at the recent muni-
cipal elections in those cities. made COM
position with the knights Of labor. The
result was that thousands of good and true
democrats in those cities, who are opposed
to strikes and boycotts, availed themselves
of the opportunity afforded them by that
composition to manifest their dis.
appreciation of such injurious measures by
voting with the republicans and electing the
Iatter's candidates by large majorities.
There still remain in the country great
many voters who believe that under free
government people should have the right to
conduct their own private business in their
own way.

with his pack on his back. By industry,
frugalisy and thrift he acquired his i'm
mense fortune. ltgoes without saying that
he would never have done so had he spent
his evenings at secret meetings of knights of
labor, and lost days in walking about the
streets circulating boycott notices, and
months in disordsrly, murderous and iucen-

TEE CUSTOMS Committee of the French
Chanber Of Deputies yesterday voted to
lay a heavy duty upon corn imported from
this country. This will seriously affect
American farmers but they cannot be at
all surprised at it as long as they continue
to send men to Congress who lay heavy du-
ties upon almost every product of France
imported into this country.

THE WASHINGTON Republican cries aloud
for free sugar. That is we'll enough. Sugar
should be free. But the same paper, and
at the same time, also cries aloud for high
duty on WOOL That is bad enough. Wool
should he free. Clothing is made Of wool;
and cheap clothing is more necessary than
cheap sugar. Poor people cen get along
without sugar, but they must wear clothes.
But sugar is Southern, while wool is a
Northern product. Hence, the iuconsisten-
cy of the Republican. Is it possible that
sectionalism could be produced any farther?

THE REFUSAL of the Union and Central
Pacific railroads, to which the Government
gave fifty million acres of land and lent fifty
million dollars each, to pay either the in
terest or even portion of the principal Of
the loan, has induced the Government 10
recommend a thorough investigation of the
affairs of those roads, from their commence
ment to the present. 1t is hoped that the
recommendation will be adopted and that
the investigation will be conducted by ex
perts. But with such corrupting influences
as the roads have at their command, the
question that naturally suggests itselfis,who
will vouch for the fidelity of the experts ?

WITH THE instructions of the federal
Judges and the verdict rendered in the cou'
non case decided at Richmond last Thurs
day, founded as they were upon the deci-
sion of the United States Court staring
him in the face, it is hardly possible
that any other Virginia collector,
notwithstanding the instructions he has re-
ceived from the State authorities, will put
his State to the expense Of the damages that
will surely be assessed against him if ne

The amount of coupons refused in the case
referred TO was thirty dollars. BY the YER

cept the coupons, but. in addition, is mulet
to an amount exceeding three hundred dol
lars in good money.

A BUSINESS MAN.

Perhaps no more effective speech has been
delivered during the campaign than that of
John A. Tibbitts at New Britain. In the
course of his remarks he annihilated all the
Democratic arguments" which have been
made against the Republican candidate for
governor, and made the following impressive
statement of facts: The simple question then
is, fellow citizens, whether a uniformly sue
cessful career for more than twenty years in
business and finance is, when combined with
high personal character, to be considered
sufficient qualification for the Office of COVER
nor. We may well answer that question in
the light of our experience in Connecticut
for the last quarter of a century or more,
and without going beyond the lines of the
Republican party And what do we find?
For thirteen years the Republicans of this
State elected to the goyernorship men whose
training and qualifications were identical
with those of Mr.. Lounsbury. The great war
governor was taken from the ranks of our
manufacturers. The experience that he had
gained in business life was of inestimable
value to the State. His administration is
one of the brightest pages in our history.
And there was Jewell, who during his COM
paratively brief political career did more for
the Republican cause in Connecticut than
all other men combined. He went straight
from his tannery to the executive chair, with
out serving an apprenticeship in minor Offices
and later honored our diplomatic service and
administered the most important department
of the national government with distinguish
ed ability, upon strict business principles, to
which it had too long been stranger. Then
came Bigelow, who had been educated in the
same school, and proved for the third time
that the party which chooses business man
for the head of its ticket makes no mistake.

tude of individual words in the class by the
little labor required for learning the three or
four or half dozen specimens in the respective
groups; he will, in other words, not only
learn the spelling of the whole vocabulary,
with his memory not burdened, but stimu-
lated and strengthened by the powerful prin-
ciple of mental association, but he will also,
unconsciously, indeed, it may be to himself,
but not less really, be led up to all the for
nation principles of words in our language.
He will see what seemed irregular and abnor-
NAL coming under rule; he will see the rea-
sons for our multifarious linguistic forms.
He will get an insight into the nature of hu-
man speech. He will develop an instinct for
word study and SO far an intelligent study of
all that is learned through the medium of
words. He will be put, in short, in the way
of true culture. HENRY N. Day

Grand Master Workman Powderly is not
much of free-trader. He says: 1 am
protectionist from the sole of my foot to the
top of my head. I believe not alone in ten
per cent. but in twenty per cent, and as
much more as the exigencies of home inter-
ests require. I believe in tariff upon
everything-raw material included; and raw
material is that covered up in mother earth,
and from the time it is brought out with a
pick until it is made into knife, it needs
protection, because it is all labor.
A shortage in the amount of salt gathered
and higher freight rates due to the scarcity
of tonnage in the West Indies have resulted
in decided advance in the price of coarse
salt in the past two months. The shortage
is due to very heavy rains throughout the
summer in nearly all salt making sections in
the West Indies and in the Mediterranean.
At some islands it is reported that not d
bushel has been gathered, and higher prices
seem to be generally anticipated before the
new crop comes in next summer.
One of the most curious statistical records
recently compiled is that of DIR. Salzmann of
Essling, in Wurtemberg. He found ,on going
over the ancient records of Essling, that in
the sixteenth century the average duration of
life among the physicians was 36.5 years; in
the seventeenth century, 45S; in the eight
eenth, 45.S, while at the present time the
physicians of Wurtemburg reach the very
favorable average of 56,7 years. 1t would
appear that this very great increase in long
evity was due to the disappearance of the
pest and the great diminution in the number
| of typhus epidemics. The black death, or
| black pest of the fourteenth century, decl-
| mated the practitioners of that epoch.
Consistency is jewel which men who talk
| and write much are very apt to lose. Thus
