Protection and Labor.

The speech attributed to Mr.. Powderly,
published in some tree trades papers, in
which he is represented as speaking in
sighting manner of the protective tar'if.
is repudiated by him. His views on the
tariff question are found in an address
made by him, from which we take the
following extract:
Gentlemen. am protectionist from the
sole Of nv foot to the top of nv head Re-
newed applause not only believe in 10
per cent but believe in 20 per cent tariff
and as much more as the exigencies OF home
interests require. CCheers. I believe in
tariff on everything, raw material included
lGreat cheering The only raw material Is
that covered up in mother earth and from the
time il is touched with pick until it'll made
into that (holding up his pocket knife II
needs protection because it is all labor"
There is nothing palmer under the sun
than that protective tariff is of the very
first importance to American laborers.
Without this our country would be flooded
with the products of the cheap labor OF
other countries. And this competition
would reduce the wages of American labor
to the starvation wages of foreign coun-
tries. American laborers are coming to
realize and understand this truth more
and more, and to act with the republi-
can party, one of the distinctive prin-
ciples of which is tariff for protec-
ton to American industries. This matter
is very clearly stated in Mr.. Bodwell's
letter of acceptance, where he says:
1T will. however, be found in the end
that the principal influence upon the
wages OF the laboring man comes from
the tariff system of the National Govern
ment. A protective tariff means good
wages, while free trade or mere revenue
tariff means poor wages to the laborers of
the United States. 1t has been the steady
aim of the republican party to maintain
protection and it has been the steady aim
OF the democratic party to enforce free
trade. On this direct issue lies the whole
question to the laboring man. Ii he fails
to consider it and to act upon it he tails at
the point which vitality affects his own
personal interest"

pv. From all appearances 1 should say that
the time is not distant when the Catholics Of
this country shall have done their part to up
root the saloon power Tribune
1t is important to notice that these ear
nest supporters Of temperance do not lend
their influence to the St. John party. but
follow the course of Murphy. the great
temperance reformer. and avoid separate
political organization. Thus they will be
able to accomplish vastly more good and
not waste their strength on third party
efforts, which only tend to divide the
friends of prohibition. and to help strength
en- the saloons in their nefarious traffic.
This strong temperance movement
among the Catholics is highly auspici-
cious tact.

No citizen of Maine should fail tC
see that the Morrison tariff bill sup.
ported at the present session of Con
gress bv the mass of the Democratic
Representatives., struck deadly blows
at every material interest of Maine
II gave to the farmers aud lumbermen
of Canada the free market of the United
States for all their products thus
placing the alien, who pays no tax to
support our State or National Govern
ments, on the same basis as our own
citizens, who pay all those taxes. To
the fishermen of Canada the bill pro-
posed to concede such manifest advan-
tages over the fishermen of New Eng
land that one might suppose the DEM
ocratic Representatives were legislat-
ing for the Canadian interest and cher
ished special malignity towards the
New England interest. Every manu-
featuring interest in which Maine cap
italists have embarked their money,
and in which Maine laborers secure
good wages, was imperiled and its
prosperity menaced by this tariff bill,

of the Republican Representatives in

Interesting Facts for the Friends
of Temperance.

Mr. Hugh 2. McElrone, the editor of The
Catholic Mirror" has written an interesting
sr.icle for The Independent" on the relation
of Catholics to the temperance movement
At first, he saws, Catholics in this country
held aloof from the temperance movement.
They had good reason for this, as temperance
societies we're generally allied with move
ments organized for the purpose of ''resist-
ing the encroschments of infdelity and
Romsuism," and temperance orators fire.
quentlv used "IrIsh Paptists' as horrible
examples. But all that is changed now
Temperance lecturers no longer insult Irish
Catholics. while on the other hand, Catholics
begin to see the fearful ravages made BY rum
in their own ranks. The words of the late
A. NJ Suilivan-''Ireland sober is Ireland
tree"-have been echoed in the pastorals of
the Irish bishops and from the pulpits of
Irish churches. Public sentiment in the
Catholic church of America says Mr.
McElrone, sis rising like giant against the
saloon. Laws and csnons deal with
abstract things; sentiment regards their
practical workings. The ideal saloon
may not be 4 thing to condemn; but where is
the ideal saloon? On the other side of the
moon; perhaps; certainly not in America
As the law exists amongst vs. il is a veritable
gateway of hell. The leading men OF
the Catholic American episcopate to-day
the men of thought and energy-are radical
on the temperance question. Bishop Irelsnd,
Spalding and keane are trio that cannot be
matched among Us; vet they are the men
who lead the total abstinence movement and
whose views and sentiments most influence
Catholics. While these three are active in
the work, the united episcopa,e have thrown
their influence in the same scale. Archbishop
RYAN of Philadelphia, and Archbi shop Elder
of Cincinnati. have also taken advanced posi-
tons upon the subject, aud no two cities in
the land more sorely need temperance reform
than those whose episcopal seats they occu-

On Thursday remarkable surgical opera
ton was performed at the Massachusetts,
General Hospital BY DIR. Maurice II. Rich
ardson, of that city. About year ago John
Mccarthy swallowed a set of artificial teeth.
The passage of food to the stomach was al
most wholly prevented, the patient grew
emaciated and weak and it became evident
that unless relief was had. he must soon die.
Dr. Richardson made transverse cut in the
left side of the abdomen, through which the
mans stomach was drawn out, and then cut
open, which by the insertion of his arm to
the elbow RI. Richardson was able TO reach
and remove the teeth. The internal opening
was then closed with fine silk and the stom-
sch replaced, the external cut being also
closed with stitches. The whole operation
was completed in fortyfive minutes. TIE
patient is doing we'll and his complete recov.
cry is now considered little less than certain.

Fifty Years Ago.

The winter apparel of boys even fifty years
ago would be an in interesting subject. we
lack the pen of General Oliver to do it justice.
The change from those days to the present IL
something wonderful. India-rubber boots and
shoes we're not then invented; great coats
were among rare things; boys clothes were
generally made over from dads dress coat;
trousers were cut down and travelled through
successive bows, and finally cut up to patch
and piece other clothes. Boy tallors were
unheard of. Seamstresses passed from house
to house and fixed over the Buys clothes, cut
down and make over, etc. If boy had
grandmother, he could count perhaps on
pair of wooden mits otherwise he went with
out. To purchase such things was little
thought of. In the house no furnaces, few
stoves, bedrooms as cold and colder than
barns nowadays; warming pans for beds at
night in constant use, as the bedclothes were
like two cakes of ice Washing was done by
| first breaking through the ice found IN the
pitchers over night. Ali cooking done by
wood fires, and better done THAI that OF the
present dsy, in spite of our modern improve
ments.
All that can be said of the boy of half
century ago is that the fttest lived. Nowon-
der that consumption claimed its thousands
and tens of thousands, both old and young.
The wonder to US of to-day is how any one
ever lived through the winters of those days:
and yet the boys, in my opinion, had better
time, had more real ENJOYMENT than is the
case with boys of to-day. Toys, sleds. skates,
balls and marbles we're costly and rare. The
boys saved their pennies for whole year to
be able TO buy sled or pair OF skates.
Christmas presents were unknown. New
Year, perhaps, brought round something.
and then most generally a something useful
rather than playful. To-day boys no longer
treasure their things. They get them for the
asking. without effort on their own part, and
they are consequently held in light esteem
This has engendered carelessness, depend
ence and want of forethought in our boys.
The future seems all cut out for them. They
have only to sail along the placid stream of
life, and when trials and financial disaster
come, as they do to most all human kind
sooner or later in life there is less manlness
and tenacty of purpose-in fact, less integri-
tv-than formerly. When | went to Charles
w. Green's school in Jamaica Plains, had
six cents week pocket money, on condition
would put three cents a week in the bank.
There was no room here for extravagant ex-
penditure. and nv parents did not intend there
should be, but got more out of my three
cents than boys DO to day out of three dollars
that is, of real satisfaction The subject is
an endless one in all its bearings. and no less
interesting than of advantage as displaying
the trials and hardships of our fathers.-Bos-
ton Tynnscript
