PROTECTION AND MANUFACTURES

Another in the Course to the College
 students by Professor Thompson.
 The lecture room in North Sheffield Hall
 was full to overhowing last evening when
 Prof. Thompson entered to continue his dis
 cussion of the merits of protection and free
 trade The subject of the lecture was "Pro-
 lection in it's relation to manufactures'' and
 the arguments presented on the protectionist
 side were as follows: In the United States
 we have tried protection in the proportion of
 to 1 of free trade. The present condition
 of our manufactures shows the result. The free traders ask, if we so well adapted to manufacturing industries why not wait for
 them to establish themselves! Why do we
 need tariffa Because experience shows us
 it does not pay to sit still and wait for things
 to turn up There are many drags and ob-
 st tacles in the way of the establishment of a
 we build nanufactory for something we
 have not made before the Englishman puts down his price below the cost of production enced American. The individual has not the power to compete with the experienced and wealthy foreigner. The people have to help him. Everything tends to move to great centers, and this unless we ourselves put stop to it. The large manufacturers of of'London an1 Manchester drew to themselves our wealth as well as that of the rest of the world. Be- | sides these difficulties there is great preju- ! dice in this country against home manufac- I lures. The tailor will tell you that he has to say his goods are English" before he can

 Of Railroad Train.
 Yesterday as the noon freight train going north on the Hartford road was passing un der the Ferry street bridge a man ran down the embankment and placed himself directly in front of the rapidly appr oaching engine, Engineer John Webber saw the mans rash act, but could not stop his engine, which passed over the mans body, literally cutting him in twain. The remains were removed to the norgue, wher Dr. White made an ex- animation and in the pockets of his clothing found a number of papers which led to the belief that the mans name was Shure. A further investigation revealed the fact that the unfortunate man was Solomon Shure, a peddler living at 80 Kimberly avenue. It was clear case of deliberate suicide. Up to last midnight the friends had not removed the remains from the morgue.

 To show the good effects of protection it is only necessary to state that every time we tax an article the tax is followed by an invention, so that now even the English confess that we surpass them in many particulars and they use American locks in the London war office. But the free traders say it is best to buy in the cheapest and sell in the dearest markets; that we now pay the foreign price plus tn. amount of the tax. On the contrary, as matter of fact, we buy cheaper than before in most cases, owing to home competition, and should the tax be removed we would find the price of foreign commodities going much higher than it now is.

PARNELL SETS THE KEY.

l Anxious to Train With Gladstone He Declares Himself Satisfied With The PremIer,s Declaration of Pol icy.
 BOSTON, Feb. 19.-The Parnellites are put ting very good face upon matters and eith- CT are or pretend to be perfectly satisfied
 with MT. Gladstone's brief declaration of programme yesterday. MT. Parnell, who has
 usually been very reticent, suddenly became
 accessible to interviews after the adjourn
 ment last night and expressed himself freely
 in appreciation of what MT. Gladstone had
 said. It was evident that he wished to set
 the key to which his party should tune their
 utterances. The apparent taste with which
 he and the other leaders of the pary put
 themselves on record in this respect may be
 accounted for by the fact that they are de-
 termined not to break with MT. Gladstone
 so long as there is any possible chance of
 getting the desired measures from him look
 ing toward partial separation Parnell's
 wonderful patience has so often manifested itself that it may be relied
 upon in the present exigency. The only question is whether he can imbue his followers with the same degree of endurance and caution. There is also the danger always of internal strife in the party growing out of rival ambitions like those shown in the O'Shea-Lynch case, and this danger increases with every day that practi- cal realization of at least some portion of the Irish demands is postponed. In this view it must be confessed that the outlook is less satisfactory for the crown ing of MT. Parnell's ambition than it was the day before yesterday, and this makes his courage all the more admirable in declar- ing that MT. Gladstones policy of home rule is justified by the necessities of the situ- ation. Meanwhile the Tories assail the postponement needlessly keeping the country in suspense and agitation. This is perfunctory, however, and is merely made on the theory that the outs must assail the ins on general principles. Several of the Irish leaders have declared that they will not obstruct parliamentary business so long as MT. Gladstone seems to be acting in good faith toward them, and this being so there is no reason why public business, which has been somewhat delayed should not now be speedily cleared up and all grnmbling on this account cease. There is one point, however, which the Nationals confess they will not support MT. Gladstone in, and this is the matter as to shut off debate at the Speakers pleas ure. MT. Gladstone has been in favor of eX- tending the Speakers power in this respect ever since the defeat of some of his favorite schemes by Irish flibustering three years ago, but he is not likely to attempt to secure such a change in the rules at this iuncture, so that there seems to be no present danger of 8 clash between him and his Irish adher- ents.
