Mrs. Judson had grown up In the business

splendid references from prominent people all

her employers She would get little party

thoroughly in the art of soliciting subscrip-

visit and remain always with them to cheer
them up when they were downhearted. That
was the secret of her success and ours. 1t is

Worse than Dynamite.

Hardly month passes but we read of ter
rible explosions, and loss of life from
natural gas.
One writer has raked up Chinese history,
wherein it appears. that away back in the
time when the famous Chinese wall was
building, before the use of gas wells was
discovered, terrible explosion took place.
The big wells in some way got the start Of
the little ones, so that enormous volumes of
air were sucked down into those subterra-
mean magazines. When the air reached GER
tain proportions, the whole thing went off
like leaky gasoline stove. The result was
horrible in the destruction of lives. The
same writer predicts similar conditions un-
derlying the great natural gas belt of this
country, from Toledo, through Ohio, Ind-
ana and Kentucky, whereby that whole vast
region might be ripped up to the depth Of
1900 feet, leaving chasm for the waters of
the great lakes to pour down into, blottang
out every human being in this now densely
populated valley from the face of the earth.
That writer might easily have shown further,
that throughout our whole country not only
in densely populated regions and cities, but
in country and village houses as WE'LL natu-
raj gases far more dangerous than is found
in the lake regions, are carrying off not only
"pig-taif' Cinnamon, but our own families
and friends, during the hot waves of July
and August
Scores of people are dying daily from
typhoid fever, diarrhGa, dysentery. cholera
morbus, and infant summer complaints; all
caused by poisonous gases and ferments, far
worse than hydrogen gas or dynamite in their
explosions. Fortunately this latter danger
can all be averted, by the use of simple
old fashioned remedy, Johnsons Anodyne
Liniment, used internally, as explained in a
pamphlet sent free to anyone, by |. S. John
son & Co., Boston, Mass. No matter if you
have used this remedy before, it will pay
you to get bottle and read the directions, or
send for the pamphlet just to learn how to
use it economically. aug. 2,d&wlw.

Read The Evidence.

The flax and linen interests of the
United States can be made of great value
to the industrial and financial interests of
the people provided a wise and fostering
policy is maintained by the Government.
Well Informed persons know how impor-
tant the fax and linen interests were to
Ireland in the days of her prosperity.
The operation of the Free Trade pro-
gramme of Cleveland on these productions
in this country could not fail to be disas-
trous. We call the attention of our read
ers to an interview, published in another
column, with William Barbour, president
of the Barbour Bros Co., one of the great
eat thread manufacturing concerns in the
world, with factories in the United States,
Ireland, and another just completed in
Germany. 1t is impossible to read the
statements of President Barbour and not
be- impressed with the important bear
ing of the present tariff upon the rate of
wages in this industry with which he is
certainly as familiar as any man in
America. 'Two years ago" said Mr..
Barbour, 81 made careful comparison
of the wages paid in our Paterson, y. j.,
and our Lisburn, Ireland, factories. In
the former we had at that time 800 hands,
and in the latter $500. Now in two
weeks these $500 operatives in Ireland
drew only $500 more pay than the 1900
operatives in Paterson drew" And the
usual explanation of the free traders that
higher wages here result from the mar
velous superiority of American over
foreign workingmen will hardly meet the
present case, for IA Mr.. Barbour SAYS,
"The Paterson employees all came from
Ireland originally never yet had
one ask me to let him return to Ireland
and work in that factory, but every time
60 to Lisburn the operatives come in
crowds and beg for a chance to come over
here"
The plain meaning of such facts as
these cannot be perverted nor misunder-
stood They are worth volumes of fine
rhetoric and abstract theorising by col
lege professors without practical business
experience, and those who seek the pros
perity of their own country before all
others will not forget them when they
east their ballots for those who are to
mould and direct the policy of the Nation.

Cleveland Popular in the Bahamas

To the Editor of the Tribune:
SIR To show what effect the Mills bill
would have upon the salt industry, wish to
state that in the Bahama Islands there are
thousands of people waiting only for that bill
to become a law to enter into the manufac-
ture of salt upon such an extensive scale
that our markets would be flooded with a
prime article, which, being produced at a
low figure and brought here at low freight,
could shut down every factory in this coun-
try. Able-bodied men and women there get
from "a to 10 cents per day for long day 8
work. The water is very salty which with
cheap works and ground rent and labor and
freight, would make it hard for producer
in Syracuse to compete. Every person on
the islands is Free Trader and Democrat
and Clevelandite, and hates Mr.. Blaine and
the Republican party with perfect hatred.
thority in Nassau, that the reason of this
state of feeling was that Cleveland was con-
sidered the champion of their interests,
while Blaine, as the embodiment of high
protective principles, was their worst enemy.
We must not remain idle and letAmerican
interests go by default; but by every honor
able means possible strive to shut tight the
gates and provide protection for all, from
east to west. and from north to south.
Farmers, fishermen, mechanics, thinkers,
tailors, sailors, manufacturers, business men
of all branches, must all enjoy the blessings
of protection from cheap labor, whether in
England itself or any of its colonies.
