IRELAND AND FREE TRADE.

That it was the reprcssve laws OF Eng
land aud not free trade that ruined the
manufactures OF Ireland we have already
proven in these columns by citations from
the legislative history Of England. But
this was not enough for an anomalous in
dvidual signing himself "An Irish Pro-
tectionist." We published only n fow
days ago facts stating when the English
Parliament passed laws prohibiting Ire
land from exporting her products to for
cign ports, iorbidding the export OF glass
made in that country, placing prohibilory
duties on the importation into England OF
the wearing in England Of coltons made ia
/ Ireland to be an oilcnsc. Other laws in
! tcricrcd with the importation Of foreign
| goods into Ireland. But this sort Of owl
dcncc does not satisfy our correspond
ont lie does not care for the position
and pronounced free trade views OF Graf
tan, Flood and O'Connoll. Well perhaps
the following statistics as TO the Irish trade
and traffic since 1850, when England had
about adjusted herself to her FREQ trade
policy, will 20 far TO convince him:
In the Irish linen mills IN 1861 2ll2i persons
were employed In no. 6al2 In 1850 lrclandH
exports were valued NJ f'OsGli, In ls5i, $50 ,55.

This progress, which is the result OF free
trade, is very encouraging and ought to
be convincing especially when il is re-
mcmbcrod that the population Of ireland,
which was nearly 100000 in 1913, Is now
little more than 100000. It ia not free
trade that has affected Irish manufacturers
disastrously, but the rcprcssivo legislation
Of q somi.barbarous age, when free trade
was still q half century away.

LEWIS, THE LIGHT"
The Clever Prank of Crank in the
Brooklyn Tabernacle

Brooklyn Tabernacle.
NEW York, Oct. Lewis Greenslade,
who has made himself prominent in
Brooklyn by his queer actions, and who
has several times been charged with dis
turbing the meetings of the Salvation
Army, visited the Brooklyn Tabernacle at
the morning service yesterday. He is
known as Lewis, the Light" and is
crank on religious matters. He claims
that his desire is to kill King Death and
shine as the apostle OF light, hence lie has
taken the name of Lewis, the Light"
Lewis, the Light" managed 10 get
into the building and occupied a seat in
the gallery on the right side OF the church
and quite near the platform. He behaved
himself until DR.. Talmage gave out the
hymn, Just before the sermon was 10 no
preached. This was the time for the
crank to do his work, and, while every one
was seated, he arose and took of his over
coat displaying a light suit OF bathing
| clothes, similar to the uniform worn by
the Brooklyn baseball club. On the front
OF the white shirt he wore n red flannel
liver pad, cut into the shape OF heart.

did not appear to notice him,
as he did not want TO disturb
the congregation. He gave Mr.. John
Wood the treasurer Of the church. the
cue. and Mr.. Wood went into the gallery
and quietly asked "Lowis the Light" TO
| put on his overcoat so as not TO create any
disturbance. The crank refused to put ON
his coat, claiming that ii he did it would
hide from sign, his large red heart. Mr..
Wood then notified special policeman
Dudley, who is engaged to protect the con-
gregation from annoyance The special POI
liceman told Lewis the Light" TO put on
his coat and get out When the man re-
fused, the policeman said he would place
him under arrest. This was sufficient,
and "Lewis the Light said he would get
out without making noise II the police
man would not arrest him. This was
promised and as DR.. Talmage commenced
his sermon on the Lords Charios" the
crank made his exit from the building.
On his way down the aisle he distributed
small cards, on which was printed his
ideas OF christianity.

CLEVELANDS MESSAGE.

The President yesterday approved OF
the bill which recently passed both houses
OF Congress, and which provides Tor TIE
execution Of existing treaty stipulations
with China relative TO the prevention OF
the importation OF Chinese labor. Mr..
Cleveland does not hesitate to speak
plainly as TO the impolicy Of attempting
TO graft the Chinese on our stem OF the
Anglo-Saxon tree. He declares it to have
been unwisc, 'impolitic and injurious to
both nations. IT were as easy to mix oil
and water. And yet there arc as many
reasons Tor the employment OF the Chinese
which is equally Objectionable from So
cial and race point Of view The Chinese
are patient and quick 10 learn and adapt
Themselves TO various kinds OF labor.
Thor worth in these respects has many
times been acknowledged, especially on

'SqcmE BARY at yesterdays session Of

This Is not at all 10 the credit Of the Court
Although the Constitution Is silent In their

the holding OF two offices by a Magistrate
is rcpugnant 10 the spirit OF that insiru-

the face Of the reiterated protests ol the
people, hold a second office, especially by
his own vote. In voting against Squire

the Magistrates have placed themselves In

TuRpIE STATES THE ISSUE.
He Wants to Take the Trusts by the
Throat.


VALPARAISO, Ind, Oct. 1.-senator Tur-
pie tonight addressed an audience which
filled the opera-house. lie said that the
Mills bill could not be passed now, because
two votes were lacking in the Senate One
would be supplied by a new senator next
March, and Thurman would break the tie.
The speaker hoped before long We could
take the trusts by the throat and choke
their life out. Gen. llarrison's visitors
could be counted several times, the Sena-
tor said, but they voted only once.
The issue OF both parties is not free trade
nor protection, but whether an exceed
ingly high and unnecessary tariff tax shall
be collected. Even ii free trade should
bring floods OF foreign commodities there
would be return floods OF our commodi-
ties. lie cited quinine and hides as hav-
ing been benefited 10y being made free,
and said the protection manufacturers
policy is to sell goods for the highest
prices and pay the lowest wages.

The Trust Orders a Refinery Closed Till

Prices Rise.
BosToN, Mass, Oct. 1.-The Bay State
sugar refinery, actingunder orders from the
trust headquarters in New York, closed
down Saturday night for good, thus throw
ing out Of employment 300 men. Presi-
dent Atkins, OF the Bay State Sugar com
pany, when questioned said: 81 don't re-
gard ii as permanet shutdown. 1t is an
economic business affair. The demand ior
refined sugars lets up usually about Octo-
Der 81. In November aud December all
the sugar refineries cut down their melt
ing. Tie Bay State company being III the
trust Of course is subject 10 its orders and
il is far easier and more economical 10 shut
down one refinery as II whole than TO cut
down several partially. All there Is in the
shut down OF the Bay State company may
be summed up in few words: We reduce
the proportion Of sugar to the consump'
tiau
