PROTECTION AND IDLENEss.

The Massachusetts report on the statls- tics of labor for 1887 reveals some extreme ly interesting facts. Massachusetts is great manufacturing state, and is therefore specially interested in protection. There, if any where, the tariff should have done its perfect work. Wages should be high, employment steady, and every one happy. But what do we find
 There are S16,4 persons in Massachu- setts engaged in gainful occupations. Of this number, 241, ,5S9, or 29.59 per cent were unemployed at their principal occu- patton on an average, 4. II months during the census year QSS5). That is about one third of all those who were engaged in re- munerative labor 'were unemployed at their principal occupation for about one third of their time" For four months in the year these 241, ,59s people have to re main idle, or fill in the time with such work as they can manage to get.
 The highest percentage of unemploy- ment, 69. II per cent, was in manufactures.
 It is timidly suggested to the Boston home market club, that possibly the home market is not big enough to keep the Mas sachusetts mills going for twelve months in the year; and that if the tariff were only out of the way, so that We could get fair chance at the markets of the world, the Massachusetts mills could give the aforesaid 241 ,59S persons work for more than nine months out of twelve.
 A third of the working population en- gagged in manufacturing unemployed at their principal occupation for four months in the year this is bad showing for the Old Bay State. Yet the talk will go on about the. benefit which the American workingman gets from the tariff. It will still be maintained that our national pros psrity is bound up in protection, and thai if we have free trade the factories of Mas sachusetts will, instead of running ever eight months in the year, shut down per manently and go out of business. O. course this simply amounts to saying tha the larger our market is, the smaller vii be our trade; but this is no more ridicu lous than the other things the protec tionists say.

MR JAMES CARNEs of Sharon, Penn' writes to the Pittsburg Post as follows: "Fifteen years experience ill the iron bus mess has taught me that the true princi ples of government in relation to the tariff are set forth by Grover Cleveland in his message, and affirmed by the democracy of the United States in the St Louis conven- ton. I regard the democratic party as the safeguard of the masses as against the in terests of the few, and am satisfied that through its principles the millions of la borers now enslaved, will be disinthralled. I firmly believe that the creators of the wealth of our country, as we'll as of the world, are entitled to the products of their toll. It is astonishing that the party of Lincoln, the friend of mankind, should be reduced to such extremities in its effort to support corporate, trust and monopolistic interests, as against the interests of the people. The campaign of malicious lies so easily inaugurated indicates the hopelessness of the republican cause and guarantees the election of Grover Cleveland and Allan G. Thurman, and the triumph of democratic principles, which have made us people so great, so power full, so prosperous that all the older nations of the earth look upon us with envy, and count the days of their oppression and the robbery of man as almost ended. Jeffer- son uttered the immortal truth that all men are created with inalisnable rights, among which are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The latter word of this remarkable declaration, which appears to be but the re-echo of the famou, apostle of the Gentiles, that God has made of one blood all people that dwel on the face of the whole earth,' and whicl was declared in the Arcopagus of Greece in the presence of the most learned assem bly..in the world, is the vital principle o this campaign. l now define myself a the friend of labor, as have always been and, as democrat, the unqualified enemy of any party, the policy of which is t. establish plutocrscy instead of
 democracy"

Down in the sunny meadow, Beneath the sky so blue, She found @ four leaf clover And put it In her shoe. "For," said she, ''I shall marry The first one meets my view, While walking in the meadow With a clover in my shoe" Then to her neighbours farmhouse She let her fancy run; You see this next Scor neighbor Had a very ham,, me son. And then she blushed and started, For, down the shaded way. A figure tall and comely Across her vision lay. .sOh! little four leaf clover will believe in you! Let those who will be scornful- Iknow you've told me true" With beating heart she waited Till the figure came that way, Then, looking up, said sweetly: Ut is a pleasant day" She looked again and pouted, Imagine, if you can, This country maiden's anger It was the hired man!
