KEEP AT THE FRONT-There are

lions which should be kept at the front

must be reduced, or the federal govern.

BLAINE SIDE SHow.-Dr. McGlynn
sends 10 the Times a letter in which he
runs on at great length in that confident
and cheerfully idiotic way for which he
has become noted about the principles
and intentions OF the United Labor party,
and quite incidentally he takes exception
to our description of that noble organlza-
ton as a "Blaine side show" Whether

THE MoNARcmY.-The Due d'Orleans
said in speech on Saturday last in Par
is: Once again tell you that if did not
firmly believe that the monarchy alone
could save France | would not speak as
do. None of US would hesitate to sacri-
flee his life TO give back TO his country
the great blessings of peace, honesty,
liberty. and authority, and when the hour
strikes | shall march in the front ranks.
You will understand that !, who have
had the honor of fighting for the Pope
and for France, cannot separate the two
causes. First, then. let me drink the
bealths of Leo Kill, King and Pontiii
Of NJ. lie Comte dc Paris and Of the Dau-
phin. Next, friends, let me drink your
neal,bs. or. better still, let US all drink to-
qether to France"
IScREAsE OF PRIcEs-A war tariff
organ aiiirms that 'if the protective duties
do not increase the cost of American pro
ducts to American consumers, then the
Democratic policy is utterly without
decent excuse" On the contrary, if pro-
tective duties do not enable American
producers to charge American consumers
more than they would be able to get but
for such duties, then the protective policy
ia utterly without eXcuse-it fails To pro-
tect. The object OF protective duties Is
to shut out or enhance the cost OF foreign
products. and thus enable home produc-
ers TO charge more for their goods in
others words. to tax the people for their
benefit. And this ia the way the system
operates.--N J. World
HOWE RUIE.-Mr. Chamberlain's idea
is 10 give each county a governing board
with control over local affairs, police, and
, poor laws including, and to establish
four Parliaments on the island, respec-
lively in Ulster, Munster, Connaught and
Leinster What their powers are to be is
not stated.
The plan is puzzling one, aud is not
very well comprehended either by the
Tories or Liberals ". J. Word.

NATURARIzED CITIZENs.-The rights
r and Obligations of such persons must de
pend upon the special facts and circum-
stances of each case. There are, how
ever, two general principles bearing on
the subject
The first is that acquired citizenship in
E this country does not exempt the subject
from an obligation TO his native country
which was fully matured before he left
A home. Suppose, for instance, that a man
| had already been drawn into the military
service and left it without due authority
to come to this country. la spite of his
acquired citizenship here he might be
held TO such obligation should he return
10 his native land-N Y. Herald.
