WILL SUPPORT CLEVELAND.
Farquhar, the Manufacturer, Declares for
Tariff Reform-He was Republican.
New York Herald.1

YORK, August 3, lSSS.-Iour cor
respondent called to-day 10 inspect the
large manufactory of agricultural inn
plements long owned, built up and
managed by Mr.. \. Z. Farquhar, who
has long been known as one of the
largest employers Of labor and among
the most successful men in the State.
He has always taken a lively interest
in politics, and was a close personal
friend of the late President Garfield.
He has always been strong republican,
and never voted for any candidate for
President who was not a member of
that party. 1t had, however, been
rumored that Mr.. Farquhar had tired
of supporting the protection policy
with which the republican party has
been allying itself more ond more.
Mr.. Farquhar was found hard at his
work, surrounded by five hundred
cheerful looking, well paid men, who
contribute to make his establishment
one of the largest Of its kind in the
country. 1t was soon apparent that
the report Of Mr.. Farquhar's dissatis-
faction was true, as is we'll shown by
the following interview, which was
submitted to him and indorsed as cor
rect
"Why do you, all old time republican
and an extensive manufacturer, leave
your former party affiliations and
make new relations on the tariff issue
raised by President Cleveland?'
II have not left the republican par
ty: it has left me. I became a republi-
can because 1 believed that every man,
woman and child in America, white or
black, had all equal right to liberty and
the untrammelled pursuit of happi-
ness. 1 voted for all of our republican
Presidents. The republican party has
deserted the principles Of its noble
founders and now stands for the policy
of Stacking trade and taxing labor to
give bounties to favored classes. 1t has
become the party of Capitalization and
monopoly, imagining the government
was instituted for its benefit, while I,
in common with its former great lights,
Lincoln, Chase and McCulloch, believe
in the economic principles of Jefferson.
No old time republican owes apology
for advocating tariff reform. After the
war I remained with the party called
republican so long as 1 believe the
national credit (more important than
systems of taxation) was safer in its
hands. But President Cleveland's ad-
ministration has proved there is no
difference between the parties in this
respect, and his tariff reform policy is
certainly in the direction of national
progress.
"As manufacturer I support it be-
cause l believe it will be to the interest
Of myself and my employees.

A Large-Hearted Farmer.
[Laurens Herald.l

Mr.. G. +. Young, of Jacks Town
ship, we are informed, has a fine pros
pect for large corn and cotton crop;
and in view of this, and to evince bis
appreciation of the faithful work of his
'colored laborers, he gave them a barbe-
cue few days since, with permission
to invite neighboring laborers. So the
occasion was made pleasing one to
both landlord and laborer Such APP

landlords in this county, and doubtless
has a good effect.

4 HUMAN JAW.
How Much Work it Does Even When You
Bend Your Elbow.

The MONDAY customers were drop
ping out one by one from Sansom-
street restaurant when a dyspeptic-
looking man who sat at the next
table started me by saying: "Have
you any idea how many miles msn's
jaw will travel in the course of his life,
assuming that he lives to be seventy
years of age.
"Well, I never thought Of it," an
swered a young man who halted in
his wild career Of beefsteak. The
dyspeptic man changed his seat and
exposed a much-soiled piece Of
paper with some figures on it, which
he proceeded to explain
"For the first ten years child's jaw
will go about So inches daily, or 2O0,-
$50 inches altogether in a decade.
From his tenth to his twentieth year,
what with chewing gum, food and to-
bacco, he will work his jaw fer, say,
four hours day, at an average of one
half of all inch per minute; that would
make in day l20 inches, or in ten
years 43S, 900 inches. During this time
he will talk about five hours day,
traversing about three-fourths of an
inch a minute with his jaw that would
give in ten years 22,250 inches to be
added to our former figures.
"For the next forty-five years he
will spend sixty minutes a day in eat
ing, when he will open his mouth one
half an inch a minute, and seven
hours in talking, when he will average
fve-eights of an inch that is, when
you figure it out 5,00S, ,625 inches.
1--WE now have our man siNty-five
years old. For the last five years his
jaw takes rest. He will eat no more
than thirty minutes day at one-half
inch a minute, or 27,345 inches, and in
talking the distance travelled will not
amount to more than 33S, ,3OG inches.
Now for the total. If we add the
various sums together we get 6,S35, 40
inches, and dividing by 63160, the num-
Der of inches ia q mile, YOU find that
the maxillary journey is a distance Of
1O7 miles and fraction.
''That is certainly interesting" said
the young man. Have you ever cal
culated the same lip-trip for woman? ?"
"My dear boy" came the slow, sad
reply, life is short"

woRK1SGMES OF PHILADELPHIA.
A City Where Laborers Own Their Homes.
Moral and Social Influence.
[Age Of Steel.l

Philadelphia, as the greatest work
shop of America, furnishes q striking
illustration in the point. Its compare
tive exemption from strikes is due to
the fact that, rs a rule, the working
man there OWLS his home. Hence he
is as conservative as the capitalist. You
may find scores Of squares with nice
brick houses of workingmen, not one of
which is tenement house. Philadel-
phia now has double the number of
dwelling houses of any other city of its
size in the world.
This marvellous increase in it's home
steads is due to its cooperative build
ing associations-numbering over 400.
They have been tried for nearly fifty
years, and have proved such valuable
forces in promoting industry, economy,
sobriety, thrift and prosperity that the
State encourages them by exempting all
their stock and mortgages from taxa
ton. Though the holdings of these
associations exceed S50,0O0,000, they
are managed by workingmen at little
expense, and are always open to public
scrutiny. Failures have been very rare,
less than in any other class of financial
associations. The worst Of those closed
during the panic of 1873 paid ninety
three cents on the dollar" These asso-
Citations, so unique, tried so long and
so successfully, are a model for the
country, certainly in large manufacture
ing centers.
That I may speak authoritatively, I
will epitomize certain statements kind
ly furnished by an eminent Philadel-
phian, especially conversant with this
subject, who says: "The tenement
house is unknown here. In the riots of
1877 the 10000 members of building as
sociations acted as an efficient counter
poise TO the lawless throngs that crowd
ed the streets. The instinct or self
preservation, of social order, was as
strong with them as with the Weather
classes, and was even more effectual.
1t neutralized, in their own camp, the
clamors of vicious and riotous rabble,
50 that the presence of the mayor and
the police was sufficient to quell all dis
order without collision. These associa-
tions have been potent factor in
making our people prosperous and
moral, encouraging sobriety and pre-
venting dissipation. The absence Of
any sociallstic tendencies can undoubt-
edly be traced to the general ownership
of homes"
