sueGEsrIoNs ON wALL.PAPER1No

Papers with small-fgured designs are
the best for the novice to experiment
with. They are more easily matched
on the wall, and slight msfits are not SO
noticeable. A border of course adds
finish and covers not a few shortcom-
ings. The colors in the border should
be somewhat in keeping with the colors
in the paper. A high ceilinged room
will admit of broad border; low
celinged room should have a narrow
border. 1t must be trimmed, is most
easily handled in short lengths, and is
pasted on after the main papering is
! finished. Sometimes a paper will have
pattern that can be cut into narrow
strips and used as border. On one &C
casion we used a dia ond-patterned
paper in this way by cutting the pattern
for border bias way of the length.
The first thing to be done is to cut off
one of the white margins of the wall
paper; which you cut off must depend
on whether you determine to work to
the right or to the left. If you work
toward your right, you must cut off the
left margin, and Uice versa. You can
measure the height of the room with a
strip of the margin you have cut off.
See that the end of your paper is per.
fectly straight; then cut off the length
required from the top to the wainscot
of the room. Measure subsequent lengths
by the first one, being careful to match
the pattern. The short lengths can be
used over doors, windows and mantel-
pieces. Spread the paper, face down.
ward, on a long, smooth table. If the
table is not long enough, let the piece
hang downward at the top end; then
with large, clean wbitewash brush
paste the wrong side of the paper, work
ing from the lower end upward. When
about half of the length has been pasted,
lift up the end first done and turn it up
against the remainder of the pasted
part, thus making more than three
fourths of yard double; then proceed
to paste the remainder.
Lift the top end of the paper carefully
by each corner, mount the step ladder,
hold the pasted side close to the wall,
but not touching it, and then press it
against the wall at the top, being care
full to have it straight with the ceiling,
yet not overlapping it. Take an ordi-
nary new, clean banister brush and
brush the paper down the center Gas far
as the foIded piece against the wall,
This done, brush the sides to the wall
and then unloose the folded part, with

SHALL WE ACCEPT ENGLISH DO

There are some reasonably intelligent
persons, who believe that American
manufacturers could compete with Eng.
fish work, if the standard of wages were
lowered here. Now, would that follow
Would not the first effect of the free
trade or lower tariff be an excessive
importation from all foreign markets
Manufactured goods and raw materials
would come in with a rush. This would
at once check native production, with
the prospect of precipitating CONNER
cial and financial panic. The inevitable
concomitant of that would be great bus
mess depression and further shrink
age of values, from which the country
would not recover in years.
But, the tariff reformer would say,
free trade or lower duties will make
smaller prices at home. But would the
workman be able to save more money
at the erd of the year, and would his
condition be as comfortable as it is now
Is It not undeniable that competition
with the world would necessitate an
equalization of all conditions? Wages
would have to be cut right and left. All
labor would be cheapened. Factories.
would have to be built as cheaply here
as in Europe. Machinery would have
to be as cheap. Rents would be lowered
and the shrinkage in the value of real
estate would ruin many widows and
orphans whose sole livelihood is found
in those Investments. Masons, carpen-
tiers, in fact all workmen whould have
to take less than they are at present re-
ceiving farm produce would fall off in
consequence of a reduced demand for
it.
The country would be forced to pass
through a trying ordeal, and when the
stage of depression and bankruptcy had
been passed and everything was reduced
to the old worlds level, would not for
eign competition in our markets be
stronger than ever? European labor
has not yet reached the Chinese level.
There are lower depths of industrial
degradation to be reached, and TO retain
Its control of our markets Europe would
still further use the forcing process.
What pitiable condition thiS country
would find itself in trying to compete
with the pauper labor of Europe. Eng
lund would spread her hands over the
Democratic free traders who had
brought the country to that desperate
strait and call them blessed-just as she
calls PROSTATE Ireland and India blessed.
Her prestige as the great manufactur
ing nation of the world, which is now
becoming dim, would be reiluminated,
and she would control the United States
as effectually as though the patriot
fathers had never fought for human
freedom, and though Americans still
bowed the knee to an English sovereign,
To President Cleveland and the high
toned, moral Mugwumps the English
men look for the rehabilitation of their
country's commercial greatness. In the
United States they recognize their most
formidable rival, and know that if ouI
protective tariff is not broken down the
day will come when this nation will
pass them in the race for commercial
supremacy Telegram.

DO you not think that one of half a
dozen candidates can tie elected, if
nominated at ChicagoT asked The Jour
udl correspondent.
Yes said Col. Hooker, i see no rea-
son why the nominee of the Chicago
Convention, whoever he may be, cannot
be elected on the issue presented by the
voters of the country protection to
American interests, which issue is OF
far more Importance to the American
laborer than the American manufac-
turer.' In conclusion he said: i would
very much like to see the New England
delegates go into the convention united
in favor of candidate. If they could
do this it would give them command
ing influence at Chicago. Heretof, r.
New England has been divided in Il g
Republican Conventions, but If the DELE :
gates from these States could cast their
~ votes solid for any one candidate 1t
would have much more weight than the
mere numerical strength of the dele
gates
Col, Hooker will remain in Vermont
until the middle of June. when he leaves
for Chicago with the Vermont delega-
ton. He is sanguine of the success of
the Republican party in the Presidential
election, and thinks Vermont will in
dorse the Chicago nominees at the
September election by $1,000 majority.
