Self Evident TruehA

There * one thing that the army oi
workers in this country ought to renem.
Der. This nation is the most prosperous
in the world. The working classes are
better clothed ard better fed than IN any
other country on the face Of the globe.
Why Because a tariff has protected them
against competition from abroad. 1t has
built up Industries which would otherwise
never have been planced here, and fcs-
rered others that could only have had q
feeble existence under free trade. I am
heartily n favor OF protecting everything
tina: We eth produce or manufacture here.
Free trade in any line would mean its
ultimate extinction. SO far as production
IL this country i concerned. No practi-
cal business man doubts this.
The doctrinaires seem to be getting
numerous down in Washington. but the
sentiment of tile country, am firmly con
vi,ccd, is against free trade. Tariff re-
d .ction. rs an agency for reducing the
. ;rnlus, would not be success. On the
:onrrary, il would increase it by many
Millions. That is 20 eyident that do not
well see how any one can doubt IT,

WAsHiSGToS. January 2l.-One Of the

CURED few days aso at the bureau Of en-
craving and printing here. An order was
issued directing that the girls who act a.
assistants TO the men in charge OF the
presses be changed from press TO press. The
execution uf the order, however, was
strongly objected to. as the pressmen are
paid in proportion to tie amount of work
performed, and accordingly when the assist
ants become accustomed to the work Of each
man il involves material reduction in
the amount of work accomplished to have
them changed. Upon receiving the order,
Q committee ~ once waited on the Assist
ant Chief OF the Bureau and informed him
that the pressmen had stopped work. and
unless the order was resclnded, would at
once leave the building. Another COM
m;ttee was also delegated 10 wait on Chief
Graves Before the committee had time to
