THE FIRST AND LAST,

President CLEVELAND has been comI-
pared to WASHINGTON in so many other
respects, it will not do to pass unnOticed
the similarity between the first and last
American presidents in their fondness
for piscatorial sports. Mr.. CLEVE-
LANDS recent visit to the mountain
passes of the Blue Ridge range, through
which the burly waters of the historic
James cut their way, recalls the fact
that this very spot was favOrite stamp
ing ground with the immortal WASH
INGToN. There it was he delighted to
retire when wearied of the cares of
state, and amid the picturesque scenery
of the Blue Ridge passes draw from
nature the inspiration which adds the
charm of purity to greatness. 1t is in
this locality the famous Natural Bridge
spans a little creek which flows
into the upper waters of the
James. The bridge is perpetual evil
dence that WASHINGTON was as handy
with his jack-knife as he was with the
historic Ratchet, for the traveller who
visits this wOndrOuS work of nature to-
day will see in clean-cut letters on the
limestone face of the arch, high above
all other lettering done on the side of
the bridge, the initials Sc. w." which
were engraven there by the hand of the
adventurous young man who after
wards became the father of his country.
We would not advise Mr.. CLEVELAND
to attempt an inscription of his own in
itials alongside those of WASHINGTON,

THE DULUTH CHANGES.

The changes that are being made in
the offering of the st. Paul & Duluth
road will remove some familiar figures
from our railroad circles. 1t is to be
hoped, however, that these removals
and designations mean no change in the
policy of the road so far as it affects st.
Paul's transportation interests. Under
the management of Mr.. FISHER the
Duluth road was always loyal to st.
Paul, and could be relied upon, in every
emergency, to stand by our shippers.
1t would be grievOus blow to our COM
mercial interests If these changes in the
management should produce change
in the policy which has for so long
time proved a blessing 10 US. There is
nothing on the surface, beyond the
change in the management, to indicate
that a change of policy is contemplated,
and we hope that whatsoever apprehen-
sion is experienced by our business
classes may prove to be grOundlesS.

Blaine's Speech on Trusts VIII
Not Be Printed by the Republic
can MANNERS.

Not BE Printed by the hepuDii-
can Managers.
Special to the Globe.
New YORK, Aug 31.-A few days ago
some facts leaked out regarding re-
quests made upon the Republican ma
tional committee for copies of Hon.
James G. Blaine's speech indorsing
trusts. The story of the occurrence
never became known until to-day, and
it shows one of the striking and funny
instances of a national campaign.
The story, as =. now given, Is as
follows: A little over week
ago gentleman appeared at
the headquarters of the Republican
national committee. He went into the
aeading room and asked the attendant
there if he had document, MI. Blaine.S
speech. The attendant said he didn't
know anything about it. The man was
persistent, however, and sent up ms
card to the person who was then in
charge, who proved to be John G. New.
Mr.. New informed him that Mr.. Blalne's
speech had not yet been put in docu-
ment form, and he didn't know when it
would be. This individual had no
sooner departed than another one APP
peared Oh the scene, and he went
through the same racket. After half
a dozen of them had come in sue
cession. Mr.. New, who was gener-
ally bland and likes to capture votes
by his willing smile, grew to be
sour, but still they kept coming until
full bakers dozen had appeared. Then
they stationed two sergeants at arms at
the door with instructions to put out OF
the committee room any one asking for
copies of Blaine's speech indorsing
trusts. 1t is probable, from authentic
reports, that the requests of these gen
tlemen were simply matter of coinci-
dence. A man who pretends to know
says that several of them were Republic
cans, and they were probably looking
for light. Inquiries on the subject OF
any one connected with the Republican
headquarters produced considerable II
ritation. When pressed for an answer
the only reply was that it was the
wicked invention of wicked enemy.

THE DIFFERENCE

Referring to the GLOBES statement
that tariff is a tax, the Lake Crystal
Union, with an air of Owlish wisdom,
propOunds the question: "What is a
newspaper and makes answer by say
ing that it is tax upon every one who
reads.
There is where you are wrong.
A newspaper is not tax upon the
reader. Especially if it is bright and
crisp, like the GLOBE.
\ newspaper is a quid pro quo. 1t
furnishes a valuable consideration for
the money expended in its purchase.
The man who buys a newspaper gets
the worth of his money just as much as
when he buys his bread.
1t is not so with the man who pays the
tar.f tax.
Y newspaper represents so much
money in the cost of its make up, so
much brains, so much energy in its prep
aration.
The tariff tax represents nothing ex-
ccpt the arbitrary power of govern
ment to take money from the pockets of
its citizens, all above the actual and
necessary expenses of the government
TO go into the pockets of the favored
classes who own manufactures and
mines.
Thus our Lake Crystal neighbor will
see that there is difference, and a vast
difference, between the tariff tax and a
newspaper.

but the laboring mans misfortune, that
he did not know the facts.
The speaker declared his opinion that
during the late war we owed to the
effects of protective tariff the means
which upheld the unity of our people,
the consolidation of our govern
ment, the glory of our achieve
ments and tie military power
of our country, and added: us
it not matter OF remark that the at
tempted destruction OF our protective
system comes from those who did not
defend the life of the country III that
war, and the majority OF whom mourn
the cause which the protective tariff
caused to be lost to them?"
Gen. Butler attacked the Mills bill,
and said the question now plainly be-
/, fore the people is, which will the people
of this country sustain in carrying on
Jour business:
THE SYSTEM OF THE FATHERS,
under which we so greatly prospered;
or will they adopt new, experiment.
which shall put every financial and
industrial question upon new
basis, and introduce change
in the industries of the farm,
the mill and the workshop, and that,
too, upon a plan so prepared as to eX-
actly suit our commercial rival and
enemy, England. Gen. Butler then
turned to the fisheries question, touch
ing upon various treaties that had been
in force between the United States and
Great Britain. He said: 81 agree with
the president that the bill giving him
power of retaliation was a poor bill, I'M
worthy of the dignity of the United
States government, and if he had vetoed
it on that ground / should have been
quite inclined to support him. My
criticism of the bill is that it contains
enactments in regard to keeping vessels
and goods of Canadians in the British
Dominion of North America out OF our
ports. When we learn that in these
North American British possessions our
vessels are kept out of port, pray
why don't the United States take the
bull by the hOrns-even if his name is
John-and give the president the power
and the right, whenever ne finds that
single vessel. however small, is kept out
of any British port or anywhere unlaW-
fully, to keep out of the ports OF the
United States any British vessel, how
ever great, until the wrong shall be re-
dressed? Retaliate the wrongs done to
fishermen by Canadians by action
against the Cunard steamships sailing
under the ensign of the British govern
ment and the thing will be brought to
an end. The first question that springs
to lip is: is the president in earnest"
If yes, let him enforce retaliation Tor
the Outrages by the power he has mad
since 1887. If he will do that, he VIII
show that his paper is the message OF
statesman, and not of campaigner on
the stump"

The tariff reform sentiment is one
that is sure to grow with agitation and
discussion, because it has reason and
common sense on its side. 1t is espe-
cially strong in the Northwest, whose
leading interests demand a reduction of
duties, and the position which the Re
publican party had taken was found to
have endangered its hO.d upon more
than one state which had been counted
upon as ''sure." This was why the
senators began to hedge under the ear
nest plea of Mr.. ALLISON, of Iowa, that
the people of his state demanded tariff
reform, and would not be satisfied with
out it. The idea that such Republican
stronghold as Iowa should become doubt
full was alarming, and a conference of
Republican senators concluded that
something must be wrong.-New York

BosToN, Aug. 31.-Gen. Ben F. But
Ter this evening addressed large aud
fence in fremont Temple upon the
tariff and fisheries questions. Theoreti-
cally, he said, free trade between all ma
lions as between all men is correct in
principle; that is, if all nations in all
things were exactly on the same footing
But such conditions of equity cannot
exist among nations, and, therefore. all
theories upon the question OF flee trade
becomes useless. Said Gen. But
Ter: II cite the president on
my side as against free trade;
but l must confess, at the same
time, that the president seems to try to
get as near being free trader as he
can. L believe if he had observed anu

i've tariff has done for American work
ingmen, his tariff message would never
have been penned 1t is not his fault,

Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Aug. 81 Another ineffec-
tual attempt has been made to recon-
cile King Milan and Queen Natalie of
Servia. Those who essayed to perform
the kind Office of mediator thought that
if an agreement of some kind, even
modus vivendi, could be arranged be-
tween the warning couple before the
actual suit for divorce was proceeded
with, the evil day might be delayed
The determined rebuff with which
the effort was met, however, has
pretty well established the fact that this
will be the last attempt of the kind
made. Matters have progressed too far
for even policy to dictate a reconcllla-
ton, and legal separation is the only
relief from matrimonial bonds that
either can expect now. From adj APP
pearance at present, IL seems as though
the consistory at Belgrade would grant
as far as possible fair trial of the case,
though, of course, the king will do all he
can in his own capital to bend the suitin
his favor. The latest reports declare that
in obedience to the Servian law the queen
will be allowed to appear before the
cOnsistOry, in person, as Natalie de-
manded. This decision Is extremely
obnoxious to King Milan. who has every
reason to fear his wife's presence in
Belgrade. The report says that he can
not prevent the operation of this law,
but must submit to the decision. On
this account it is thouhgt that the trial
will be delayed. 1t is, however, an as
sured fact that the people of Servia side
with the queen rather than the king.
The former is popular and the latter is
exceedingly unpopular in his own
country.
The Official Gazette publishes a de-
cree forbidding the celebration of Ma
tales birthday as national holiday,
and instructing the clergy not to hold
special services or offer prayers for the
queen. This is the first official an

Merriam a Weak Candidate.

Worthington Advance.
The fact that Merriam's method Of buying
his nomination for governor will make him a
weak candidate before the people is having
its effect. The best men in the party see
this and it will probably defeat his nomina-
ton.
They cite the case Of New York. Judge
Folger was pure man and strong with the
people, but the money used to carry the con-
vention and the methods Of the politicians
disguised the people and they defeated
Folger at the polls as a rebuke to the money
political MS. If as strong and pure man
as Folger could be defeated thus, where
would a man like Merriam bring up? Not
that Merriam is specially bad man, but he
is a money politician trying to buy the gov
ernorship.
