CHAPTER XXI.
WE EXPLODE THE MINES.

don't design to weary you with a close
account Of our proceedings How we opened
the main deck hatch, rugged up tackles,
clapping purchases on the falls, as the cap
stan was hard frozen and immovable; how
we hoisted the powder barrels on deck, and
then by tackles on the foreyard lowered them
over the side; how we filed number of bags
which we found in the forecastle with pow
der; how we measured the cracks in the ice,
and sawed a couple of spare studdingsail
booms into lengths to serve as beams whereby
to poise the barrels and bags-would make
but sailors talk, half of which would be un-
ineligible and the rest wearisome.
The Frenchman worked hard, and we
snatched only half an hour for our dinner.
The split that had happened in the ice during
the night showed by daylight as a gulf be-
twixt eight and ten feet wide at the seaward
end, thinning to q width of three feet, never
less, to where it ended, ahead of the ship, in
q hundred cracks in the ice that showed as If
a thunderbolt had fallen just there. looked
into this rent, but it was as black as a well
past a certain depth and there was no CLEAN
of water. When we went over the side to
roll our first barrel Of powder to the spot
where we meant to lower it, the Frenchman

with no more reverence than boy would
show in throwing a stone at a jackass, tum-
bled him into the chasm. He then stepped
up to the body Of the Portuguese boatswain,
dragged him to the same assure and rolled
him into it.
"ThereI" cried he; "now they are properly
buried"
And with this he went coolly on with his
work.
/ said nothing, but was secretly heartily
disguised with this brutal disposal Of his
miserable shipmates' remains However, it
was his doing, not mine; and I confess the
removal Of those silent witnesses was very
great relief to me, albeit when I considered
how Tassard had been awakened, and how
both the mate and the boatswain might have
been brought to by treatment, 1 felt as though
after a manner the Frenehman had COM
mitted murder by burying them so.

thickness. I cut them to equal lengths, and
fired them, and waited, watch in hand; one
was burned out two minutes before the other,
and each length took about ten minutes to
consume. This was good enough to base my
calculations upon.

THE ABSOLUTELY PROTECTED
INDUSTRIES.

Contributed by the Home Market Club of nl.)
The industry and adroitness of those
who have undertaken TO force upon the
United States the British system of free
foreign trade are worthy of better
cause. A favorite practice of these men
has been pointing to certain trades not
exposed to foreign competition, and
citing the comparatively high wages paid
in them as an argument for withdrawing
protection from all industries.
While it Is true that wages paid to
carpenters, masons, house painters,
blacksmiths, etc., are high as, and in
many instances higher than, wages paid
workmen in majority of the manufac.
turing industries, the deception prac-
ticed by free traders lies in their claim
that the class of mechanics named are
not protected because their trades are
not enumerated in tariff laws. The fact
is they are protected by natural condi-
tons stronger than any law of congress,
and it Is in consequence of this absolute
protection that they are enabled to de-
mand and secure better pay. Brick
laying, carpentry, house. painting and
Timing cannot be done in foreign coun-
tries and houses be brought here ready
for occupancy. Nobody knows this bet
ter than the free trade attorneys, else
they would be found quite as strenuous
for free houses as they now are for free
ships, free wool, and free lumber. The
village blacksmith is absolutely protect
ed by the conditions which render 1t
impossible for the farmer to send his
horse abroad to be shod, or his wagon
or pillow to be repaired, otherwise the
xrin.s nh o1u 10 xx0k
long permit his protection to stand un-
assaiIed.
However adequately defended against
foreign competition in these particular
lines of work they may be-, the class of
mechanics referred to cannot afford to
overlook the importance to themselves
of securing adequate protection to all
other industries. Every man in the
country kept steadily and contentedly
employed in some other industry les
sens the danger from overcrowding in
the naturally protected trades. Every
dollar kept in the country, which under
a free trade policy would 90 abroad, en-
ables somebody to spend that much
more money, which may go into build
ing or repairing houses, shoelng horses,
or some similar work necessarily done
by mechanics at or near home. These
in turn will have the additional dollar to
pay the farmer for bread, the gardener
for fruit or vegetables, or to otherwise
spend for family comfort or convenience.
Thus it is that the maintenance of our
protective policy appeals directly to the
voters whom the promoters of free trade
are seeking to enlist in their work of re-
pealing existing tariff laws with view
to replacing them with laws dictated in
the interest of q nation at once envious
of our growing wealth and jealous of our
greatness among the nations of the
earth. Our workingmen, of all others,
should avoid becoming supporters of
free trade, through either the fiattery or
receptions Of Its advocates.

ALL the venom and malice OF the st.
Paul Globe has been let loose upon Con-
gresham Lind since that gentleman
truly represented his district by voting
against the Mills bill. Instead Of max
ing some argument, plausible or other
wise to show why Mr.. Lind should not
vote as he did, this Democratic sheet
pours forth invectives and abuse of
such low-down meanness that even
those who are well acquainted with its
character are surprised. These exhibi-
billions of the Globe do Mr.. Lind no
harm-indeed, they are highly compli-
mentary to him. They show that he has
succeeded in making the Globe very
angry-struck it in tender spot. But
the fact is, there never was more Inn
pudent assumption than that the Globe
has chosen to indulge in that Mr.. Lind
would or should vote for the Mills bill.
1t was of course that papers privilege to
try to influence him as it did, first by
fiatterv and later by threats and abuse,
but it has only itself to blame II its
scheme failed to work. The people Of
the Second district knew that Mr.. Lind
was too true man to sacrifice their in
terests for few paltry praises from q
Democratic sheet of the Globes charac-
ter, and there has never been any doubt
about how he would vote on the Mills
bill Of iniquity disguised as tariff reform.
The Globe is correct, Mr.. Lind chose to
represent the Republicans Of his dis
trict, and in so doing he represented the
people, or q majority of them, which is
more than any of the Democratic men,
bers from this state have done. The
Globe should save some of It's bile and
malice-it will need 1t again this fall
when Mr.. Lind's district indorses his
congressional course and sends him
back to Washington for two years more.

GOVERNOR McGILL in an interview yes
terday said:
"I suppose am properly to be con-
sidered candidate, although in the
sense of undue solicitation-of pulling
and hauling and going from house to
house or from county to county asking
for support am not q candidate"
The Governor would not say this so
many times if he knew how ridiculous it
sounds. No one expects the Governor
would leave the state house to go out
upon an electioneering tour, butt is be-
ing done for him by those under pay
from the state. Mr.. McGill's terms,
pulling and hauling, going from house
to house," etc., does not adequately ex-
press the vigor of the work that is being
done in his behalf by the state Office
holders. The Governor is mistaken.
He is candidate only in the pulling and
hauling sense-and he will only succeed
in that way, if at all.
