Time to have good old feast ON a

There was a farmer boy there by the
name OF John b. L., sometimes called
"Urybone." lie was badly gone on
all the girls, bat there was one Young
lady he cared more for than the rest.
Sunday morning came, and the party
had jrst got through eating break
fast when John b. dropped in on
them and asked them if they would
not like TO 20 TO church with him.
All the girls but one agreed to go;
SO they got ready, aud started with
Jack. The church was mile and a
half from where the party was stay
ing. All went well until they came
to a field where the snow was
pretty deep. Every step they took
they would go down in the snow
clear up to their necks. When they
got TO the church it was out, 50 there
was a mile and half walk for moth
ing The girls gave poor Jack the
cold shoulder coming home, but that
made no difference with Jack, be
would come. He told one of the boys
he was awful sorry for fooling the
young ladie, nat way.

charges is in itself conclusive proof
that the taxing system fastened upon
the country by the Republican party
requires complete revision. The res
olntions Of the Democratic National
Convention in 1884 clearly indicate
the principles upon which such re-
vision ought to be made. This con-
veution reafhrns those principles and
demands that sach revision shall be
made by Congress In accordance
Herewith. Unnecessary taxation is
unjust taxation, and ought not TO be
longer tolerated.
/. Success in great political contests
cannot Be achieved without effort.
Every Democratic voter in the State,
every citizen OF the State, who ia
content with or approves the admin
istration of President Cleveland and
desires his reelection, ought to give
evidence of the sincerity Of his con-
ylctions during the canvass as we'll az
at the polls in November next. This
convention requests all Of those whom
it represents TO begin at an early day
IN every election district and precinc!
Of the State the work of complete
organization FOX the coming compaign.
1t cordially invites all who may ap-
prove the nomination to be made al

their previous party attachments, to
Join with the Democratic party in the
State in giving to the candidate SC
nominated the great majority which
will best express the approval and

Forced to admit that the consumer
pays both the tax on imported mer.
chandise and the equivalent of the
tax in the increased price of protect.
ed" home made commodities, the last
ditch of the defenders of protective du.
ties is the assertion that nobody ben.
eits by them but the laborer. When
once the workingman shall get his
eyes open so as to understand that hi.
wages depend upon the quality of his
work, the quantity of work to be-
done and the number of workers &c
do it, and the fact that cheap land in
this country always stands between
the laborer and beggary, there will b.
no further use for the assumption tina,
the tariff creates high wages. In
countries where high wages are pait
as we'll as in countries where low wag
es are paid, the struggle of the wage
payer is forever to force wages down
Tariffs are made protective in order
to advance the prices of other com
modities, but not the laborer there
is no protective tariff on that.-Phil

Mr.. Evart p. Wheeler, writing tn

Mr.. Evart p. Wheeler, writing the
New York Times on the subject of the
tariff duty on copper, says:
A repeal of the duty of three cents
pound on copper in the ore and of
four cents pound on copper bars and
ingots would make market abroad
for the product of every brass factory
in Connecticut. There is no State in
America which is so much injured by
the existing tariff as that State No
where has labor saving machinery
been brought to greater perfection
Mr.. Sargent, the hardware manufact-
urer of New Haven, has repeatedly
said in public that if he could get the
material for his hardware free of tax
he would spend one-third of the saw
ing in increasing his works, one-third
in increasing the wages of his work.
men and the other third in reducing
the price ofthe product IF the work.
men of Connecticut understood their
real interest they would be unanimous
for the repeal of the duty on raw ma
terials, which .diminishes wages in
creases the cost of the finished pro-
duct and almost entirely prevents the
export of American manufactured
goods.

The benign tendency of the age is
in the direction of increasing cheap
ness for good things. Invention, dis
covery, the adaptation of machinery
and the utilization of natures forces
converge on the point of making the
necessaries of life abundant and cheap
and enabling the man of limited
means to afford comforts which his
grandfather did not dare dream Of.
But protection not only resists the
benfcent tendencies of the age, i'm
pedes commerce between nations and
erects barriers against intercourse,
but seeks to limit the rights and priv
ileges and impose artificial burdens
upon the masses of the people. 1t i'm
pudently declares that the good things
of the world shall not be cheap il it

Producer and Consumer Injured.

On the side of the consumer the
burdens of the tariff are obvious
There is first the enhanced price OF
such foreign wool as must be import
ed. The duties on this material last
year amounted to $500, S16.63.
There is next the tax paid on foreign
wool manufactures, almost all of
which, in healthy condition of the
industry, would be produced in this
country. The duty on WOODEN goods
imported last year amounted to $780,
729,717.50, and the duties on all i'm.
ports of wool, raw and manufactured,
to $35, 629, 534.13, or nearly 60 per
cent. The taxes alone on this class
of commodities amounted to about as
much as the total value of the entire
wool clip of the United States. See
how an ingeniously malefcent tariff
may contrive to injure at once the
producer and consumer.-Sa Fran
cisco Examiner.

provisions of the emancipation law re-
Gently passed by the Brazilian legisla'
ture. The emancipation bill is very
short, having only FIVE brief clauses
First, declaring free from the date OF
the law all slaves in the empire. Sec.
ond relieving from further service the
free born children Of slave mothers.
Third, localizing the new freedmen
within their county for two years.
Fourth, empowering the executive to
issue the necessary regulations. Fifth,
revoking all contrary provisions.
1t is estimated that the law enamel
pates over 100000 slaves and relieves
from apprenticeship about 100000
children of slave mothers.
Previous to the passage of the law
the voluntary emancipation movement
had taken firm root in the provinces
of Rio Janeiro and Minas Gereas.
Two brothers in the municipality of
Cantazallos freed Internationally their
/ 1909 slaves. an example followed by
a number of lesser planters. One
notable fact in connection with the
freeing of the slaves is the anxiety of
the freedmen to legalize their unsanc-
titled conjugal unions and to legiti-
mize their offspring as the Brazilian
law humanely permits, by after mar
riage.

10 O'CLOCK r. NJ. OBSERVATION.

Scribner's Magazine for June marks the
beginning of the very important series on
the Building and Management OF Rail-
ways, for which preparations have long
been making. 1t Is also an unusually strong
number In It's literary features--Henry
James, Thos. B. Aldrich, Robert l.. Stev-
enson, and August Birrell being among
the contributors. The Building OF Rail-
way Is the leading article, written by T..
G. Clarke, certainly among the most emil
nent of American bridge builders, and a
man of the widest experience In railway
construction. In addition to his thorough
knowledge, he possesses the knack of put.
ting IL in clear, forciblc, and interesting
way. He makes very vivid the idea of
the immensely OF the American railway
system by striking comparisons he has
followed each step In the evolution of IL
with an acute analysis of the moving
causes; he has paid hearty tribute to
American ingenuity and perseverance
which have made our railways essentially
different from and superior to those of the
old world; and he concludes by pointing
out the great part played by the railway
In changing the whole basis OF civilization
from military to Industrial. Besides these
general qualities which makes the article
entertaining, 1t Is valuable for the large
