Nova SCOTIA having voted OVerWheim-
ingly in favor of the repeal of the Do.
mlnion act of confederation so far as it
concerns her, is in correspondence with
New Brunswick and Prince Edwards
Island with view to the union of tho
three, and not without hope of success
If things go on as they are going now.
Whether there is to be change or not
will be determined soon by the next
elections In the Dominion. II they re-
suit in Parliament which will grant
relief to Nova Scotia from the burden of
taxation which she bears, the separatist
movement may come to sudden stop.
While her people are agreed that they
must have relief, they are not agreed as
10 the policy they should pursue after
separation is secured. Some are In favor
Of the maritime union just mentioned,
and others In favor of annexation to the
United States. The new union might
not be SO easy to form as imagined,
while it is believed that the British gov
ernment could not be induced to allow
of annexation to the United States.
Great Britain will not allow so import
ant military station as Halifax to fall
into the hands of another power so long
as she retains her other great posses
si0ns In North America.

WHY DO our Industries languish? Why
Is trade depressedP Why has the Amer.
lean shipping on the ocean disappeared
Why has American ship building gone
back, Instead OF forward?
The foregoing are questions for seri-
GUS consideration. Let members of
Congress, as well as others, consider
them, and endeaVer to explain and an
swer. The history Of the last thirty
years and the changes in cur public
policy should furnish the. cause or
causes, and thus indicate the remedy.
In our Judgment the so called prOtec-
tive policy Of the Republican par y, and
the enormous eXactiOns under it, is the
main cause Of the results in question
By the Republican policy labor and
honest business have been oVerburdenedi
mon0pOlles have been created and mil
liOnaire fortunes made by individuals
in addition to the large government
revenues.
ALI these come from production. Are
all these not enough to Oppress and ulti-
mately depress? Is it any wonder in
dustries languishp And when indus.
tries langulsh trade and general busi-
nesss must be depressed.
The first step then towards a remedy
is to change the Republican policy OF
government. Let US return to justice
and equal taxation. There Is no other
way; snd it Is best for all. If one man
gets more, others get less, and those who
get less cannot buy as they otherwise
could, Our milliOnaires too spend much
of their revenue In Europe and so
deplete and impOVerlsh our country
still more.
Let our friends consider these points.

BEAUTIES.

The following from W. A. 7. of the
Cincinnati Enquirer beautifully illus.
trates some Of the beautiful points Ia
our beautiful protective tariff:
Says Goldbrick to HardwoTk-I have
5000 to invest In present for Mrs.
GOldbrlck. She has her heart set on q
solitaire diamond ring, and l intend
to present her with small diamond
worth 5000.
Says HsrdwOrk to Goldbrick-MIs.
HardwOrk and the eleven little Hard
works want coats, pants. fannels and
blankets, and | happen to have 5000;
just enough to purchase what they want.
Goldbrick-Where do you intend to
purchase your wOOlens2
HardwOrk-FrOm Atwood, the manu-
factuTer.
Goldbrick-Well, l don't intend to
take any risks, so will send to London
to get the diamond and its settings.
know 1t will be genuine. l would
sooner pay the duty and make sure the
stone 10 genuine. You had better send
your $500 over and import your wOOlen5
at the same time.
Hardwork-Fll take your suggestion
and do 1t.
The two drafts are purchased, for
warded to the London houses, and IN
due time the importation reaches the
Cincinnati Custom House, and the anna.
teqr importers call to pay charges and
take away their goods.
Says G0ldbrick to the collectOr-What
are Uncle Sans charges on my wife's
fine diamond ring?
Mr.. COllectOr-0ne diamond, valued at
5000; duty 10 per cent. ad ValOrem; 500
If you please. Thank you, MIR. Gold
brick; here is your receipt.
Says Mr.. HardwOrk to the collector
What are Uncle Sans charges on my
my wife's and babies flannels and
blankets and my coat and pants?
Mr.. C0llector-WOOlens manufactured
valued at $500; 80 per cent. ad YalOrem,
800; weight 100 pounds, thirty cents
per pOu1d-total, $148; that's all, Mr..
HardWOrkl
Hardwork-AIl2 Well, l should say
that $348 for 5000 worth of goods is
enough. I'll try and borrow the money
and pay you tomorrow.
GOldbTick (cOnsoliDgly)-It Is much
cheaper to import diamonds, HardwOrk.
The next autumn HaTdWork made up
his mind not to let Uncle Sam beat him
out of $l4S, 80 he duplicated his former
order and had AllwOOl fill It,.
"How much do l owe you, Mr.. ALL
wOOl?"
"Only $780,"
Why, they filled that order in Lon
don for $780,"
"And you paid $14S tariff and $12
freights, brokerage and insurance."
Yes"
well, if you want to try the expert,
ment again for $40, go ahead"
But what is the meaning Of this
$148?"
Its protection. Protecting Amerl.
can industry aud labor you know"
What! do you pay your wOrkmen
$148 more for making 5000 worth of
goods than the English manufacturer
dOes?"
"0h, no; pay about 10 per cent. high.
or wages-say $16 on the lot of goods"
"But where does the protection come
in?"
"DO you see that fine block Of build
ings am putting up over there, which
shall rent at 25 per cent. Of their cOat2"
Certainly l do"
"Well, there is where 1t comes In. A
protective tariff 10 good thing, and
the higher 1t Is the better 1t suits me-"
HardwOrk had taken his first praeti-
cal lesson in the tariff question.

ROMANTIC RMALrTY.
Tho Union OF Two Lovers After a separa-
tIon Of Mary YaAYA.

- -A"Ny @N@A5s
0RRVILLE. o., July 2l.-On Wednesday
afternoon wedding occurred at the
National House, which was the culmin.
alton Of q romance seldom met with In
the walks Of life, Back in the sixties
DR.. 4, 8. BOles, then young medical
student Of Lucas, RlChlsnd county, O.,
WOOed and won the heart of Miss Allie
Baker, the only child Of DR.. Norman Ba-
ker, wealthy physician Of the same
hamlet. The course Of true love did not
run smoothly on account Of the in6u-
ence Of others, and although holding an
endeAring attachment for each other, 1t
was ordained they should separate. Her
suitOr then turned his attention to other
quarters, and sOOl after formed an at.
tachment for another lady. They were
united In marriage and settled down 10
practical life. The doctor was sue
cessful In the pursuit Of his profession,
and the couple were happily mated, the
fruit Of the union being a daughter,
After fourteen years OF married life
Mrs. B0le5 became afflicted with con-
sumption and died.
After the separation of the young and
ardent lovers Dr., Baker, who was a
widOwer, went to New York StatL, TAX
ing his daughter with him. While a
resident of that State she became ac-
quainted with young man who was
represented as man Of honor and of
sober and industrious habits. He paid
assidu0us attentions to her, but was un.
able to win her affections. Obtaining
the aid Of the lady with whom they
boarded mock marriage ceremony was
performed. Indignant at their conduct
she sought the advice of an attorney,
but he had been employed to inform her
that the ceremony was a valid one In
New York State. She wrote to her faith
er, and on his arrival he inquired about
the reputation of the young man, and
learning that 1t was good, advised his
daughter to consent 10 the ceremony be-
Ing performed by minister, which she
did, The husband and wife and her
father emigrated to Kansas and located
on farm some twenty miles from Great
Bend.
Five years ago DR.. Baker died, being
possessed of considerable means. His
sOn-in-laW, who had in the mean time
proved worthless husband, 5uTTepti.
tlOusly procured the appointment of ad-
ministratOr Of the estate, He was VIC
tim OF drink, and began to squandeT his
wife's estate. The death Of her three
children added to her lonely condition,
and the continued abuse heaped upon
her by the worthless husband caused
her to leave him, and she went to her
friends in New York State. About q
year after this event her husband fol-
lowed her, and through his promise of
good treatment and different mode of
life she consented to return to Kansas
with him, only to have the remainder of
her estate squandered, and ten-fold
more abuse heaped upon her In her de-
fenseless condition. Last year she again
left him, and located at Lucas, and In
due time applied for and obtained q d.
Vorce, one Of the conditions of the de-
cree being the restoration of ber maiden
name.
Both the old lovers now being free,
they renewed the slumbering flames of
love, and pledged their VOWS on the altar
Of matrimony as above stated.

LABOR Laws,

The Massachusetts, Legislature Is ON
that can not be accused of having neg
lected or overlooked the WOTkingman
The question Of labor was thoroughly
considered and discussed in that body
and no less than six important bill!
passed regulating the relations of thu
wOTklngmen and their employers.
Massachusetts therefore not only sur
passes most of the States In having La.
Dor Bureau, but has undoubtedly the
most complete, far-reaching and eQuit.
able system of labor laws.
The six new measures provide as fol,
lows:
First, the weekly payment act, which
requires the payment in full as often as
once week, of all wages earned within
six days Of payment, and applies to
manufacturing, mining, quarrying,
mercantile, railroad, street railroad and
similar corporations; and doing away
entirely with the Objectionable system
of paying employees with orders on stores.
Second, an act limiting the employ
ment of women and minors in manu-
featuring establishments to ten hours q
day, or sixty hours week, and reqnir-
Ing that the hours of the factory, when
work is to begin and when end, should
ba posted In a conspicuous place.
Two acts concern the safety of EN-
ployes In manufacturing establish.
ments and regulate the reporting of &C.
cidents. Thus, In every factory where
the machinery Is propelled by steam,
communication by means of speaking
tubes, electric bells or other means,
satisfactory to the inspector of factories
must be established between each room
and the room where the engine is situ.
8ted. The other act requires manufac-
turers to report promptly to the Chief of
Police any accident that results In death,
or injury sufficient to prevent the in
jured person from returning to work.
Another act looks toward the identif-
cation Of labor and capital, and Is q
move toward plan that has already
been adopted in several factories In
Massachusetts of giving employees q di.
rect interest in the earnings of the es-
tablishment. This system Is said to
have been emiDently successful In all
instances tried. 1t is now given the
sanction Of the law and encouraged by
this act Of the Legislature, which allows
corporations to issue special stock to the
employees, the whole amount of capital
Issued not to exceed twO-ffths Of the ac.
tual capital of the corporation. This
will. Of course, give the emplOye an in
terest In the profits. These shares, how
ever, can not be sold or transferred eX.
cept to an emplOye or to the corporation
itself, and thus this system will not be
the means of bringing outsiders into 1t.
In addition to these measures the Mas
sachusetts Legislature has provided for
a system of arbitration of labor disputes,
and also definitely fixed the liability of
employers. Nearly all these provisions
are emiDently wise and beneficial to the
wOrkingmen, and Massachusetts insures
Its continued prosperity as manu-
featuring section by deVOting time and
attention to the Improvement of the
Of Its lab0rlng classes.

AT the Capitol, Washington, there Is a
singular, and seemingly foolish dis

comes under the sergeant at arms, but
on the other hand, if 1t is thought best
to nail it up, then the architects per-
mission must b. obtained. The clean

Lost FaIth In PHYSICIANS

There are innumerable instances
where cures have been effected by SEQ
Wills Sarsaparilla, or Blood and Liver
Syrup, for all diseases of the blood,
when the patient has been given up by
physicians. 1t Is one of the best reme-
dies ever offered to the public, and as it
is prepared with the greatest care, as a
specific for certain diseases, it Is no
wonder that 1t should be more effectusl
than hastily written and carelessly pre-
pared prescriptions. Take ScoVill's
Blood and Liver Syrup for all disorders
arising from impure blood. It Is en-
dOrsed by all leading professional men,

THERE Is row among the RepubH-
cans over the Payne investigation. Re-
publican organs are bitterly assailing
Senator Evarts, Logan and Teller, and
telling some wholesome truths In that
connection. No doubt there Is much to
be said that may be good to make pub
lie. We say let the row go on, for when
certain men fall out honest people may
hear something good.
As for Senator Payne, he Is keeping
quiet, and In that shows his good sense,
The mass of honest people do not take
much stock, as a rule, in the million
aire monopoly Senators; nor in the law
yers In the Senate who are devoted at
tOrneys of these millionaire nonopo-
lists. They all favor government pro.
lection schemes to rob labor and honest
business to add to their monopoly mil
lions and their fat fees. They ali work
cordially together to continue Republi-
can plunder schemes.
Let them, then, go on with their row,
and blaze away, 1t will not harm hon.
est people, and may benefit by at least
hearing wholesome hash. Whether
they Investigate or not will not change
the facts, nor will their refusal change
the convictions of intelligent people
who have noted the facts and the cir
cumstanGes.

THE st. Louis Post-Dispatch believes
that 1t has discovered the motive cause
of socialism and anarchism In this
country. 1t says truly that the laws of
this country recognize no privileged
classes, and that the administrators
that do SO are making the mischief.
Whenever 1t becomes apparent that our
penal laws are to be enforced only
against the poor and weak, and that
the rich or influential are to be made
law unto themselves, the harvest of
anarchy will soon ripen and armed mobs
will spring up from the dragons teeth
which the favored few will have soWn.
