porters of the PENDING bill were either
inconsistent or inSincere, or perhaps
both, because, he says, if protection is
wrong, tariff for revenue is also
wrong, that there is no difference in
principle between them, the difference
being only in degree. The gentlemen.
therefore, argues that the supporters of
this bill should advocate absolute free
trade. l might retort on the gentleman
by saying that if the doctrine of protec-
ton is correct, that doctrine should be
carried by himself and his friends to
its logical result-absolute prohibition
of foreign imports. but the gentleman
himself has said that it is his purpose
and the purpose of his political as
sociates to preserve in this country all
its own wealth, even if they are COM
PEELED to
ERECT A CHINESE WALL
around it. China preserved all her
wealth of her own people within her
limits for thousands of years: and do
not think that the advocates of diverSi-
fed industries and the friends of labor
can find much to encourage them i'll the
social and commercial condition of that
country. There protection, pure and
simple, was carried to its logical result
and produced its inevitable effects.
With the oldest civilization in the world,
with every variety of soil and climate
and natural resources; with a frugal
and industrious people, with a literature
Astounding in philosophy and specula-
tive thought, the useful arts of industry
are still in their infancy, and labor is
there the abject slave of capital. We
do not wish another wall of China here,
nor do we want absolute free trade. We
all recognize the fact that the govern
ment must have a revenue, and that
that revenue must be raised by taxa
ton, in some form or other. presume
the gentleman will concede that all tax
alton is an evil, which it would
be well to avoid if possible; and
we are reduced to choice
between that system which
would confine the trade of our
people to our limits without in
creaSing the revenue of the gov
eminent and the more liberal system
which will make commerce as free as
possible, consistent with raising sutfi-
cient revenue for the support of the
government. If under this latter sys-

ANOTHER INTERVIEW.
Mr.. Blaine Still Adheres to His
Florence Letter.


NEW YORK, May 19.-In view of the
fact that, in spite of Mr.. Blaine's Flor
ence letter, state delegations to the
Chicago convention are being i'll
structed to vote for Mr.. Blaiae's nomi-
nation, the World on Tuesday last
instructed T. c. Crawford, its London
representative, to visit MIR. Blaine in
Paris and to secure an answer to the
question-whether if nominated Mr..
Blaine would accept. Mr.. Crawford has
been for many years an intimate
personal friend of Mr.. Blaine, and
was received by him with much
cordiality. He was accorded several
interviews by Mr.. Blaine, and cables to
the World tonight an authorized state
Blaine several times within the last
three days, generally surrounded by his
family. AS regards the first question,
whether he would accept, it can be
said that Mr.. Blaine adheres to his
Florence letter, and does not withdraw
one word of his interview with MIR.
Crawford last February, in Florence. L
have no authority to say more than that,
as Mr.. Blaine did not wish to be inter
viewed again on this subject. His
Florence interview was so explicit that
the fact that he has now nothing to add
to it, by way of qualification, should be
enough to
SATISFY THE MOST DOUBTFUL
of MIR. Blaine's enemies as to his future
intentions. His declaration at Florence
correctly represents his present state of
mind. Those who associate with Mr..
Blaine have no doubt of his absolute
good faith in withdrawing. Mr.. Crawford
adds that Mr.. Blaine will leave for
England in few days and expects to
reach London in the neighborhood of
the first of June, to join Andrew Car
negie's coaching trip into Scotland. He
will probably sail for home early in
July. He will be back long before any
campaign begins, ready to take
f the Chicago convention. At
the time of the Chicago convention,
however, he will be on Mr.. Carnegie's
coach. approaching the extreme north
of Scotland, beyond the range of ordi-
nary telegraphic communication. OF
his health Mr.. Crawford says: '1t
needs no medical expert to pass upon
the bright, clear look of his eyes, his
good color and the vigor shown in every
one of his movements. He has to-day the
health that comes to man as a reward
for life of simple habits and tastes"
The World, in an editorial on the sub
ject calls attention to the fact that the
statement as sent is authorized by Mr..
Blaine, that he might have disSipated
the doubts about his candidacy with five
words, but that he carefully and
StudiouSly refuses to refuse the nOmina-
ton, or to say that the movement in that
direction is without his approval"

the radiant light of the message it
would be seen that $4,000, 900 of that
money went into the gaping pockets of
manufacturers, and was lost forever to

MASON CITY, To-, May 19.-Coroner
Mcfarland has just returned from the
scene of the Brown poisoning affair,
where he has, for the past six days, been
conducting an examination. 1t is UNI
derstood from reliable sources that the
jury will return verdict eliminating
either Mr.. or Mrs. Brown. 1t has de-
veloped during the trial that for several
years past there has been considerable
domestic trouble in the family. During
the winter, the child that is now dead,
fell into the river and Mr.. Brown and
hired man rushed down to rescue him.
When he was taking out of the water he
was conveyed to the house, and because
Mrs. Brown had not assisted in the res
cue, he said that ''he be damned if he
ever should rescue her if she should fall
into the river" She retorted: mo
body ever would ask YOU" Once dur
ing the winter he attempted to threaten
her into signing deed transferring some
real estate. Because she would not
sign it, he arose in the middle of the
night, took down double-barrel shot
gun and threatened to blow
his brains out. Mrs. Brown
gives evidence that she believes

accused protests his innocence, and at
the same time declares that he had
rather suffer than to have his wife suf-
fer for the crime. Mr.. Brown was once
wealthy farmer, but it is now under
stood that he has of late had consider
able financial trouble. Evidence of
jealousy was also given. Mrs. Brown
also testified that her husband was a
hard man to live with, and she had
nothing worth living for. During the
time Mrs. Brown was giving her testi-
mony Mr.. Brown crowded to the door
and attempted to listen to what she had
to say. The constable forced him to go
away, whereupon he grew indignant
and declared that he should listen to
his wife's testimony. Mr.. Brown con-
Quoted himself in very suspicious
manner. They have up to this time
been living together in the house, but
Mrs. Brown has asked the jury to place
man at the house, and her request
will be granted. It's thought that mat
tiers will now develop in a short time
and the real perpetrator of the heinous
crime be discovered.

of the Republican national committee,

ping at the Grand Pacific. They will

have been nominated on this assurance,
and, while | do not know that it is true,
Icannot doubt it, for l know that Mr..
COnkling, like all others who have been
fighting its leaders for many years, had
determined to give his cordial support to
the nominee of the convention. With all
factions agreeing on Mr.. Blaine his
nomination would have followed as a
matter of course" Mr.. Clarkson

SCHEFFER WAS THERE
And Spoke of the Charge That He
Is Wire Pulling.

Special to the Globe.
WINoNA, Mimi. May 19.-The Sean
danavian celebration to-day was a
grand success, and brought many visit
ors to the city. All the morning the
streets were thronged with Scandina-
vians in holiday attire, and the bust
ness streets were gayly- decorated with
American, Swedish, Norwegian and
Danish flags. The procession formed at
Philharmonic hall soon after o'clock,
and made very creditable showing.
The procession formed in the following
order: Platoon of police, Gate City
band, Scandinavian Chapter of
Druids, guests from neighboring
towns, Scandinavian Grove of Druids,
Scandinavian citizens of Winona, Fas-
sett's military band, Norden society,
Scandinavian boys over twelve years of
age, float with thirty ladies dressed IN
peasant costumes, carriages containing
the speakers and members of the city
council, citizens in carriages. Crowds
of people, viewed the procession all
along the line of march. 1t brought up
the exercises of the day took place.
Nearly fifteen hundred people were
present. Mayor Ludwig, in a brief
speech, extended the hospitality of the
city to the visitors. III. FL. Lee, who
acted as chairman, then introduced j.
A. Tawney, Esq, who reviewed at
length the history of the country down
to the time of its independence and later
events. He spoke of the large part the
Scandinavians had played in the devel-
Opment of the great Northwest, Mime
sofa alone having nearly 100000, whose
skill, energy and industry had done so
much for US. Hon. Albert Scheffer, of
st. Paul, was the next speaker. He
said he had come to Winona for the
purpose of seeing and did not expect to
speak, but, like all American citizens,
he was willing to speak. He referred
to Knute Nelson as the little Nor
wegian giant who had gained a
national reputation and whose name
was household word. He was an ex-
ample of what could be accomplished by
industry and little study by the Scan
dinavians. Mr.. Scheffer said Mime
apOlis paper had alluded to his appear
ance there at the Scandinavian celebra-
ton and accused him of putting in some
good licks for himself for governor, and
said he was as good a Norwegian as
there was in the state. Mr.. Scheffer
told them to beware of "that NorWe-
gian," as Nowegians always had a way
of getting there. Hon. j. A. johnson, of
Madison, Wis, spoke in the Norwegian
language. His speech was warmly re-
ceiYed. Prof. Giertson followed in a

WATERFOWL, Oak. May 19-Col. and
Mrs. NJ. w. Sheafes were at home to
their friends last night. 1t was the an
niversary of Col. Sheafe's birthday.
Friends to the number of about 125 as
sembled to participate in one of the
most notable social events that has ever
transpired in the city. The elite of the
city we're there, and in refinement and
intelligence this happy assembly could
not be surpassed anywhere. Another
feature of the event was the fine cos
tunes of the ladies. These would hardly
be surpassed at the leading social events
in larger cities. The social enjoyment
of the evening was enhanced by ex-
quisite music, and the host and
hostess completed the enjoyment of
the evening by gracefully serving
a most generous repast, of which ali
freely partook, The event was such
pleasant and happy one, that it will
long be green in the memory of those
who were present, and, as the friends
departed, the high esteem in which the
host and hostess are held by their
friends, was expressed in the sincere
wishes for many returns of the occasion
that they so pleasantly had celebrated.

A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
An Ashland Man Kills His Wife
and Then Himself

Special to the Globe.
ASHLAND, Wis, May 20.-At exactly
IL o'clock tonight Billy Andrews, pro-
prietor of the Diamond restaurant,
on Second street east, shot and in
stantly killed his wife in their
apartment over McMuller's meat mar
ket. Andrews then turned the revolver
upon himself, but the shot was not fatal
and he finished up the double tragedy
with a razor which he drew across his
throat. Andrews has been living
with the woman but short time and
it is said she was his mistress. A short
time previous to the commission of the
crime he was seen by friends, who did
not notice anything wrong in his ac-
tons or appearance. He had not been
drinking. The cause was, no doubt,
jealousy,
