She couIdn,t Pass the Salt.
LAlbany August


Perhaps you can imagine the sensa tior
created by the following incident which oc-
Cured at very select and formal dinner
party on Beacon street one day last week.
One Of the guests on this festive occasion
was young lady from Baltimore, whose at
tractiyeness-for the men at any rate-is moi
diminished by tendency to be mildly giddy
On either side of her at the table were seated
two nice young men, who wed with one an
other in their efforts to engage her attention
With both of them she seemed equally
pleased, bestowing her smiles this way and
that with charming impartiality.
Having been introduced to the pair but five
minutes before sitting down, she had cast a
spell upon them before the fifth oyster on her
plate was swallowed. When the soup plates
were removed they had already abandoned
themselves to her destinations, and by the
time the roast was on the table each was
hhopelehsIy enrapt1red. When the fowl was
assistant were out Of the room for moment,
the hostess, who sat close by at the head of
the table, wanted some salt.
MY DEAR" she said to the Baltimore girl,
will you hand me that little cellar by you ?''
The young woman spoken to looked up
responsively, but made no motion to comply
with the request. Surprising that she had
not understood Mrs. K said again. "Will
You not give me the salt, if you pleasep"
By this time the attention of every one
present had been called in that direction.
The young lady from the Monumental City,
however, was not perturbed 81 am very
sorry, Mrs. X" she said, but how can /
do what you ask?" And with this she lifted
her hands suddenly from beneathe table,
holding in her left the hand of the young
gentleman on that side and in her right the
hand of his rival. Both had been holding
hands with her, unknown to each other, un
der the mahogany.

see the Colonel of the first negro regiment
hung. In his speech Tuesday at Lexington
his statement of the respective positions OIL
the Republicans and Democrats ON the tariff
question was neither accurate nor dignified:
When the Democratic party, under the guild
ance of its leader, makes serious effort to do
what the Republican party so long ago pro-
claimed as thing that ought TO be done, to
reform the tariff, and brings forward. still under
least attempted to do something in earnest how
is that measure met? 1t is met, in the first place,
with the declaration that. although there seems
surplus; that 1t is probably matter Of arithme-
tic, and that IL the accounts could only be kept in
some other way II would be shown that there
wasn't any surplus al all.
1t is demonstrable as nearly as anything
relating to the Intentions of any political
party can be demonstrable, that the Demo-
cratic party is not making an earnest attempt
to reform the tariff. Our tariff is protec-
tive tariff, and tariff reform means the cor
rection of INEQUALITIES and abuses But the
Mills bill. which Mr.. Higginson calls an
earnest" measure, corrects no abuses or
inequalities. or If it does, creates In their
place greater number even Of still greater
abuses and inequalities Nor do the major
Ivy OF lts supporters sustain 1t on the pre-
tence that II does; but rather because it is a
step towards the abolition of the protective
system. The argument of the Republicans
that there will be little or no surplus left
after the expenses OF the present fiscal year
are met, Is perfectly proper and pertinent,
since 1t was the great and apparently grow
ing surplus which Mr. Cleveland made his
main reason for his multiplication message.
To the large surplus he referred the country
for the justification of his act; If that large
surplus partly mythical his act is to that
extent unjustifiable on the face of it. Mr.
Higginson's statement of the position of the
Republicans in the face of Mr.. Cleveland's
position pleased his Democratic audience,
but it can hardly be gratifying to his old
friends and admirers.

In me Sluo. The cry Of protection Tor labor, is
for labor, and none can be devised unless it
should be possible TO Ak the wages Of labor by
law.--Eastern Argus.
The only honorable and consistent course
for an individual or newspaper that believes
the above is to support tariff for revenue
only. A system that enriches few men at
the expense of the masses-and this is in
substance the charge brought against pro-
lection In the above paragraphs little bet
ter than robbery. Believing as it does,
therefore, the Argus is bound in good morals
to oppose protection and work for its over
throw and for the substitution of a tariff for
revenue only. But the Argus supports the
Mills bill, which 1t has frequently assured
Its readers is almost as good protection
measure as the present tariff inasmuch as the
average protection under il is AZ per cent,
while the average protection under the ex-
listing tariff is only AZ per cent. After stig-
Argus consistently support this bill? There
can be only one answer 1t can consistently
support it only upon the assumption that
while the bill retains considerable protec-
ton 1t destroys part of the system, and is
co De followed by other measures destroying
more, and so on until the whole system is
gone In short, II can consistently support it
only on the ASSUMPTION that it Is step in the
direction of tariff for revenue only to be
followed by other steps until the goal Of free
trade is reached. Ii the Argus undertakes
to say that it believes In II as a permanent
tariff measure. then it commits itself to
system of AZ percent. robbery. Either then
the Mills bill is first step in the destruction
Of the protective system, and the Argus Is
supporting 1t because 1t is such, or it is
permanent tariff measure and the Argus is
supporting 1t in that aspect. In the first
case the Argus is virtually advocating the
destruction Of the protective system and tine
substitution in place OF it of a tariff for
revenue only. In the second place it is sup
porting what it declares to be robbery.

In this country the progress Of women to
positions Of honor and fame in fields not
long ago supposed to be opened to men alone
has come to be considered SO much a matter
OF course that notable achievement by a
woman often receives little more attention.
than would the same act performed by a
man. The other day Mrs. Ada Bittenberger,
Of Lincoln, Nebraska, was admitted to prac-
tice before the Supreme Court of the United
States; but, although only two other women
have ever attained the distinction, the event
attracted comparatively slight attention. In
days when women are commanding steam-
boats on the Mississippi and managing
ranches In Texas, the stormng OF the barrier
OF the Supreme Court Is comparatively an
easy achievement for an American woman.
But II the society of Europe has looked with
less leniency and favor on women who have
had the will to win fame for themselves. it
has not, at times at least, denied them the
honor Of their performances. A French
essayist has recently published pamphlet
giving list of the women who have won the
red ribbon of the Legion of Honor, the order
which the First Napoleon founded and
Grevy's graceless son-in-law nearly brought
into disgrace. They number thirty-four,
and large part of them were Certainly
heroines. Under the First Napoleon the
women thus honored were but two, both
soldiers, the one having taken her brothers
place in regiment of the line where she
rose to the rank Of sergeant, the other hay
ing won the rank Of sublieutenant by gal
1antry at the battles of Jemmapes, Austen
litz and Jena. Altogether seven women
have been decorated for their services on the
battlefield, among them Lady Pigot in recog-
milton of the ambulance work which she did
In the Frsnco-Prussian war But the dis
tributors Of the ribbons of the Legion Of
Honor have recognized the plain truth that
heroic acts may be performed in many other
places than the battlefield, and have given
twenty Of the decorations or considerably
more than half Of the number distributed, to
sisters OF charity. One artist, Rosa Bon
heur, has been decorated, but the preference
still continues to be given to bravery. and
the latest ribbon was given t, Madame
Dieulafoy, the intrepid wife and COMPANION
of the explorer in North Africa.

1t can hardly be said that Col t. w. Hig-

to lack the fire and righteousness that he

he had the rieht-nndedness and patriotism

The Argus appears inclined to attribute
the decentralization of the postal service to
inefficient Republican clerks still retained in
office. If this be the correct explanation
one or the other of two things follows =
either Mr. Cleveland's postmasters are an
uncommonly stupid lot. or material for post
office clerks In the Democratic party is ex-
ceedingly scarce. Just think Of a Democrat
ic postmaster pleading for himself, or per
hitting Democratic organ to plead in his
behalf, as an excuse for the decentralization
Of his office that he is surrounded by wicked
and inefficient Republican clerks.

District of Maryland, member of the Court
of Appeals of that State. who has always
been Democrat has declared for Harrison
and Morton and protection. 1t the course of
letter giving his views he says: s
why do politicians desire to jeopardize or ties-
troy their market? Are men who take even step
IN that direction worthy of the confidence of the
American people? Can the American people
trust them? The solution Of these questions is
dependent on the result OF the coming election
Inc farmers OF this country surely do not desire
told that Il certain foreign goods are let In they
can buy cheap. Well, a man cannot buy unless
he has money farmer can't have much money
unless he can sell his product for a good price,
and SO with all workingmen OF the country. 1t
would be bitter mockery, it would be adding in
suit TO injury, for a free trader TO tell factory
operative about cheap English goods when he Las
money in his pocket, and sees no prospect Of
earning any. When the Englishman comes in
and undersels the American manufacturer the
factory is closed aud the operative is out OF EN-
ployment. The Epgllshmans cheap goods have
been the ruin OF American worsmen.
Judge Yellott says the evil Of treasury
surplus can easily be removed by repeating
the tariff ON sugar and other articles that
ought to come in free. He declares that any
farmer or any workingman who votes for a
party that is moving in the direction of free
trade will be voting to impoverish himself,
