A LETTER FROM GENERAL HARRI.
SON
The Chicago Convention Didn't Leave
Him Much Time for Play,

Boston, July 23.-Gen Harrison has writ
ten the following letter in reply to an invita-
ton of the New England Agricultural
Society
Indianapolis, Ind, July y. 1888.
To the Hon Daniel Needham, Office of the
New England Agricultural Society, Bos :
ton, Mass.
My Dear Sir: Your favor of the 9TH inst,
with one from the Hon. George b. Loring
inclosed, inviting me to be present at the
annual exhibition of the New England Agri-
cultural Society, early in September next,
has been received, and in reply | beg to
thank you sincerely for the invitation and
the cordial and complimentary words, with
which you have seen fit to accompany it,
1t would afford me great pleasure TO be
present and there meet the many representa-
tyes of the New England States whom these
occasions call together, but the duties which
devolve upon me by the action of the Chicago
Convention make it necessary for ME to re-
main at home, especially at the time men
toned in your letter. Permit me. however
to request that you extend to the Hon. Geo
b. Loring my kind regards.
Very Truly Yours,
BENJAMIN HARRISON.

What is this "nervous trouble" with which
so many seem now to be afflicted? If Won
will remember a few years ago the word
Malaria was comparatively automatically
it is as common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only the mean
ing of another word used by our fore-fathers
in times past SO it is with nervous diseases.
as they and Malaria are intended to cover
what our grandfathers called Biliousness. and
all are caused by troubles that arise from
diseased condition of the Liver which in per-
forming its functions finding it cannot dispose
of the bile through the ordinary channel il
compelled to pass it off through the system.

BOULANGER LOSING POPU-
LARITY.
Overwhelmingly Defeated as a Candi-
date For the Chamber of Deputies.
' cry Truly 7 OURS,
BENJAMIN HARRISON.

1t is gratifying to the friends of the
French Republic to hear by the recent adj
vices from Paris, that the selfish and dan
gerous demagogue who has severely af-
tlicted France of late, is fast losing his
popularity and influence. The decline of
Boulanger's political fortunes since his
violent attack on the Government and his
duel with Floquet was strikingly shown
by the result of the elections last week.
He was defeated by nearly 1000 votes in
the Department of Ardcche as condi-
date for the Chamber of Deputies.
Another election was held in the De
partment of Dordogne, and his decline in
popular estimation was there more strong
ly emphasized. In this election he stood
at the foot Of the poll.
He has not only persisted in a very dan
gerous and unpatriotic course, but the
failure of his assault on NJ. Floquet has
finally brought upon him the crushing
power of French ridcule, before which
even noisy demagogues and selfish politi-
cal agitators find ii hard to stand. 1t is
TO be hoped that the French Republicans
are now nearly rid of his pernicious in
flueuce.

The Sea Shell and Rambler, the two
society dailies at Old Orchard Beach, are en-
gagged in an interchange of pleasantries
which is carried on in verse The following
is a sample of these little amenities of sea
side journalism. The Rambler "chaws up''
the Shell in the following manner:
A Sea Shell lies upon the Sand,
To Stir it has no power
The Rambler, on the other hand.

The moral of this little strain

The Sea Shells struggles are in vain.
The Rambler takes the cake.
And the Shell excoriates the Rambler in
the following reply:
A Sea Shell takes in all it hears.
And gives the best to others
The Rambler rambles, and appears,
As it tramples on and smothers
The flowers of truth and sweetest thought.

He discusses the principles
at issue in the struggle and
shows that he is a free trade
candidate in everything but
name. The reservation is an
important one for American
party purposes. The President
feels compelled to characterize
the attempt to brand him free
trader as a deception of his
enemies. For all that, the cleo

is a conflict between free trade
and protection, and nothing
less.-LondOn Netcs.

Free Trade.
Under free trade the masses must get
poorer, because they get less employment
well known statistical work gives com
parison of the material progress of France
under protection and England under free
trade. II there is any truth in figures it
ought to startle us from our free trade dream
The comparison is based on the returns of
legacy duty;
In 1926 England was 10 shilings head
richer than France.
In 1850 England was 10 shillings head
richer than France
In 1877 England was shillings head
poorer than France.
France has 81 per cent of her land under
hllage, and it is increasing every year
The United Kingdom has 80 per cent of
land under tillage, and il is diminishing
every year, but the population of England
increases much more rapidly than the popu-
lstion of France.
The commerce of England has increased

The commerce of France has increased 80

The commerce of the United States has

The commerce of the world has increased

1t is several weeks since Sir Edward
expressed himself thus in the London
Post, and no English free trader has ven
tured reply to his spirited arrangement
Of free trade policy. 1t is several weeks
since the Inter Ocean first reprinted Sir
Edwards indictment of Cobdenism, and
no American Anglo-maniac, no Calhoun
list, Cobdenist, or Cleyelandist has had
word in defence. Since then Mr. Mckin-

the Mills bill. and no member of Con-

of the Golden Club has questioned its
exactness.
Instead of being country of small ter

tons necessary to national well-being. 1t

under the taxing power of the Government
If there is such one Ihave yet to hear
him speak on this question: Mr.. Hooker,
Dem. ,Mississippi. House debate.
This explicit declaration from one of
the most influential and candid Southern
members Of the House fore=tall- all eva
sions on the part Of Democracy in pro-
lection States. With the exception Of
Mr. Randall and the three Democrats who
voted against free wool, the party Is unit
ton. II repudiates the doctrine Of pro-
lection for projections sake, and thereby
commits itself to a policy that ineyita-
bly, leads to free trade.
