LIyERMoRE FALLS, Aug. 30.
Early Sunday morning, the parties who
stole horse and hay rack, the property of
Mr.. Parsons, of Wilton, then loaded on five
hundred pounds of wool belonging to Mr.
Currier, were seen going in the direction of
Lewiston, by party, who gave notice at this
place, and officers X. W. Weld, and s. W.
Burbank, accompanied by DIR. &. +. Knight
and Mr.. George Currier, started in pursuit,
leaving here about noon. Enquiries were
made along the various routes to Lewiston,
resulting in the tracking and finding of the
horse and wool, about seven miles this side
Auburn. A wheel track showing where the
parties had left the travelled thoroughfare
and took into what is known as Poverty
Corner woods. where the wool was discover
ed. The horse had evidently been taken
further on and hitched. Doubtless breaking
away and running into farmers yard, and
was caught and put into the barn, where he
was found. The rack has not yet been dis
covered. The officers returned late Sunday
night, leaving Sheriff Pike of Wilton, and
Parsons, to follow up the trail. The last
seen of the robbers was bout five miles from
Auburn, where they called at a house for
breakfast

STILL THEY COME.
Prominent Democrats Leaving the Free
Trede Camp.


Special to the Kennebec Journal.
LrvERMoRE FALLS, Aug. 20.
A number of heretofore strong democrats
some of them prominent men in town have
recently come out for Harrison Morton,
which ticket they will vote this fall They
claim they cannot vote against their own in
terests by throwing a free trade ticket.
They say ''the Free Trade Mills bill we can
not endure, and every manufacturer, lumber
dealer or farmer who clearly under stands
what free trade means and will do for them,
will vote against it,"
Free trade has not as many supporters
here as first claimed, while the ranks of
those favoring Protection are constantly
growing larger. A certain democratic far
tner, who has for years past been member
of the board of selectmen, now comes out
strongly in favor of Protection. A number
of democratic workngmen in turn have cut
themselves loose from the democratic ranks
ald openly say that they shall vote for Harri-
son 4 Protection. That Free Trade will ruin
the country they are positive and will vote for
nothing of the kind

Prof. Huxley on tn. Moral. OF Health,

Prof. Huxley has predicted that the time
will come when it will be reproach to be
sick. When one friend meets another he
will as soon ask "Are you honestT' as .'Are
you well!" for man would be considered
foolish, not say criminal, who gets sick.
Such state Of public feeling will sometime
be brought about. Certainly ii is true that
the morals of health are receiving more and
more attention. A greatly increasing num-
Der of people every year prevent the develop
ment of all blood, pulmonary and liver dis
eases. This is proved by the enormously in
creased use of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, which nips all such ailments in
the bud. aug22w&swlwnr

The protective system but invokes the
highest law of nature, that of self preserva-
ton. There is every reason, founded in jus
tiee. why the American producer should in
every constitutional way be favored as against
the foreign producer whose products COM
pete with his. This is our natural market.
We have made it. We have made it after a
century of struggle. We have made it at a
cost of capital and brain and muscle. We
have preserved it against foreign vars and
domestic conflicts, at great sacrifice of men
and money. The foreign producer has con-
tributed nothing to the growth or develop
ment of the country. Whatever influence
he has exerted has been against us and to
our detriment. He has nothing in common
with US. He is without the jurisdiction of
our laws. He cannot be reached by the tax
gatherer. He is exempt from all civil obi
cations in every part of the republic. We
can make no requisition upon him either in
peace or in war. Our mode of reaching him
is through the product he would send to our
markets. We can demand of him that his
merchandise shall make contribution to our
treasury if he would enjoy the use of our
markets. We can make him serve US in no
other way.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1888-08-22

The policy which dictated low rate of
duties on foreign merchandise. it was
thought by those who promoted and estab-
lished it, would tend TO benefit the farming
population of this country by increasing the
demand and raising the price of agricultural
produces in foreign markets. The foregoing
facts, however, seem to show incsntestably
that no such result has followed the adop-
ton of this policy"
Again he said in bis message of December
6, 1852:
Without repeating the arguments con-
tanned in my former message in favor of dis
eliminating protective duties, deem it nv
duty TO call your attention to one or two
other considerations affecting this subject
The first is the effect of large Importation:
of foreign goods upon our currency. Mosi

tho court is informed, lawfully and by com
pensatinc arrangement. This is property, and
II cannot be taken from its lawful owners by
an arbitrary act of confscaton. If the Legis-
laturc chooses to deprive them of their cor
porate life it can do so, but the property they
acouired in their franchise, as well as their
real property remains and belongs to the COM
pany's stockholders and other creditors. Con
seouently, it cannot be turned over to re-
ceiver, and the act providing for that DISPOSE
ton of it is invalid.
This is complete victory for the Broadway
and Seventh Avenue Company and for the
bondholders of the Sharp road, and, as the
LEGISLATION thus nulliied was rather an act of
public revenge than of public interest, the city
is not in any substantial sense sufferer by the
courts decision That Sharp and his gang de-
served everything these enactments imposed
unon them cannot be questioned, but 1T is
equally true that the franchise, as it was finally
conferred, provided reasonable rental for the
privilege of running a road in Broadway. This
sum of 81 1000 year together with the per-
centage of gross receipts, the city Will con-
tinue to receive.
The philosophy of the decision is that, no
matter what crimes man commits, he cannot
be deprived of his property except by consti-
tutional processes. If he has committed crimes
other means must be taken to punish him than
by despoiling him of his belongings. We are
compelled to say that this is sound philosophy
When these bills were passed. in 1886, TfiE
TRIBUNE, although entirely convinced that
they would accomplish no more than justice in
the particular case they were intended to cover,
was forced to express doubt as to their legal
effectiveness. They were adopted only be-
cause the public with too much reason feared
that the Broadway conspirators would never
be properly punished in the criminal courts.
The public knew then as well as
lit knows now that the law was
ample to meet the case. The public
did not believe it would be honestly executed.
It has not been and it will not be. The
"boodle' prosecutions are over We must sor-
rowfully admit that there is not honesty enough
in our officials to insure protection to the public
against this sort of crime. This fact UNI
doubtedy affords great provocation for the
passage of such acts as the Court of Appeals
has condemned, but things are often done
under provocation which a cooler judgment
cannot approve.

HIGGINS.

What's the matter with Wggins-E Stone
Virgins. of Canada and the Cosmos? We are
led to PROFOUND this interrogatory by the state
ment that the great and only Virgins has pre-
dicted seismic disturbance which Will be OF
very moderate nature" This is little short OF
alarming. Virgins chief title to fame has been
the extraordinary and altogether unprecedented
character of the occurrences that he has foretod-
and which have never come to pass Ordinary
weather prophets do occasionally score; Wiggnss
record we believe, is n total blank on the credit
side But now, strange to tell, he says that some
thing of very moderate nature" is going to
bappen and this cxcites our special wonder. Is
virgins succumbing to the conservatism OF age
Does he fear to draw down upon him the jcers OF
the scornful? Is the coming event really TO be
cataclvsmic and does he dread to arouse unduy the
apprehonsions of the timid? These are all posi-
bic explanations OF the phenomenon, but another
lust occurs to us which is certainly far from I'M
reasonable
few days ago It was reported that Virgins
had received the distinction of being elected to an
honorary membership IN the Ananias Club of Bos-
ton: an organization the meaning and the purpose
Of whose existence are sufficiently indicated by its
name II occasioned some surprise to this
announcement followed by the statement that
Virgins was indignant at the action of the club
which thus sought 10 honor hlm III Is now evil
dent that the seer Of Canada is endcavoring TO
mend his ways to retrieve his good name and to
convince a wicked and soothing generation that the
members Of the Ananas Club Of Boston made the
mistake of their lives when they thought that such
man as he would he willing 10 meet them on
terms OF equality. That accounts for the modest
tone of Wigginss talk about movement that
is going 10 extend across the continent to
Europe in February but which will be of
very moderate nature" And this throws new
light upon the nature Of Virgins. Really there is
no reason TO despair Of him and his future, in the
light Of these latest developments. Room for
Wiggns Not the Virgins that was, with the
far-reaching imagination and the unbonnded sweep
Of fancy; but the Virgins that is able TO foresec,
not the uphcaval of continents and the blottng
out of suns, but only movement of very
moderate nature Perhaps Virgins may be
