Ex-Editor Hurlburt Explains That Blaine Is
Trying to Raise False Issue.
LONDON, Aug. 1Z-Mr. William Henry Hurl-
burt. formerly editor-in-chief Of the New York
World, has written long letter to the Times,
repudiatine the contention of the Republican
party Of the United States, that President
Clevelands policy is ansi-American. and especial
ly contradicts the assertion Of Mr.. Blaine in his
speeches since his return to America. Mr..
Blaine, Mr.. Hurlburt says, is trying to raise q
false issue in accusing the Democratic party Of
favoring Englandir its tariff policy. Cleveland,
the writer declares, is not . free-trader. IN the
sense of completely abollshine tariff duties. as
some Enelishmen imagine from the
assertions Of some of the Republican press and
orators, and the general misleading tone adopted
by the Republican party, but, in the main. ad-
vocates q policy contemplating the relief of
manufacturers from taxation upon raw materials
and improved machinery. No serious reduction
of taxation upon completely manufactured Eng
lish materials is intended or desired, and this,
Mr. Hurlburt coItends, is quite as well known
to Mr.. Blaine as to every other person in the
United States. who will take the trouble to &C.
quaint himself with the facts and speak the
truth concerning them.

in support Of the motion made by Mr.. Morrill,.

Evidence accumulated demonstrates
beyond cavil or doubt, that unnatural eX
element, whether it be fear, anger, jeal-
ousy, or anything else, ruins mind and
body with II poison, for which there is no
absolute antidote. 1t brings ruin to the
body more than any other cause, and ruin
to the nerves and brain more than every
other cause combined. The point | make,
and wish to be remembered, is that I'M
natural excitement is the human souls
greatest foe. 1t takes the blood out of
the body, the life out of the blood, and the
JOY out of the life. 1t withers the young
form of symmetry and beauty into the
bending, shapeless form of premature
age 1t plows its burrows and insidiously
and deeply works its wrinkles upon the
face and brow of LEES youth and prime,
where naught but smiles should live and
reign 1t invadcs the temple of strength
and paralyzes her fair garden called the
brain. 1t dries up her streams from the
greater to the lesser nerves. 1t cuts the
sinews of her strength aud changes the
body temple into pest house of disease,
and closes the drama of life's great mis-
take. as it wraps the unhappy wreck in
deaths charitable mantle of darkness and
silence.
Fight down every phase Of unnatural
excitement control yourself in all things.
Danish from your nature jealousy and
hate, subdue your angtr and every form
of unnatural excitement, cultivate n
sweet disposition. cheerful nature, and
spirit of love and faith Your lifo Will
