32 years Of age, died suddenly yester-

from natural causes.

II was therefore compelled to choose between
abandoning its Canadian trade and the
building of factory in Canada. 1t chose
the latter and the result has justified the
wisdom of its choice inasmuch as the Meri-
den Company has retained and increased its
business in Canada. The wages paid in the
factories in Canada and the United States
are about the same.
As to cost of t. raw material which il the
nickel used the President of the Company
has this to say:
Not many years ago the nickel which we used
was imported from Europe at cost Of from
Sl.6o TO 81 90 pound: When the nickel mine,
owned by Mr.. Joseph Wharton was discovered
the United States government in order TO induce
hun to work It. placed on nickel a duty of 20
cents per pound; In 1883. under the Arthur
administration, this was reduced to 10 cents q
pound and the cost Of nickel to-day is about 65
cents per pound, of which 10 cents is protective
duty We use no nickel in its primitive state, but
it forms from 10 to ii per cent OF all the German
and nickel silver which we use, and Tor every
pound we pay ga cents more than Il there was
with the price which nickel has been reduced py
reason of the protective tariff. say 30 cents 70
S1.25 per pound, we are perfectly satisi,d 70 isI
the duty remain as II is. If the removal OF the
duty on nickel would enable us to get nickel 10
cents pound cheaper. it would make compare
ver.plated goods; the principal element of cost
being the amount which we pay for labor. If, on
the other hand, the removal Of the duty should, as
il might, result in stopping the production OF
nickel by Mr.. WHARTON the price OF the article
would we think, be increased, as the few foreign
producers could easily combine to enhance It..
We do not know how profitable the business Is TO
Mr. Wharton, but feel sure that tariff which
will enable him to continue the business at fair
profit Is for the advantage OF the manufacturer
the laborer and the consumer alike.
A good many of the statements of the free
\ ge &c 10
when examined in the light of facts. The
tax on nickel has been of no disadvantage to
the manufacturer, or the consumer. On the
contrary we have the testimony of the Meri-
den Company, which knows the facts. that
1t has been to the benefit of both and to the
laborer as well.

A Free traders Mistake.

Mr.. Everett T. Wheeler in his recent de-
bate on the tariff with Congressman Butter
worth asserted that the Meriden Britannia
Company had been compelled to build fac
tory in Canada where 1t can gee nickel free
Of duty, and with the product of the factory
was supplying the demand for plated goods
in Canada and in England. "All this"
added Mr. Wheeler might just as well have
been done In the United States, If 1t were
not for the pension of $4,000 dollars, more
or less, that protective tariff compels you
10 pay to Mr.. Wharton of Pennsylvania"
who owns the only nickel mine in the coun-
try.
Now what are the facts. The Secretary of
the Home Market Club wrote to the Meriden
Britannia Company and obtained them. Says
the President of that Company Mr.. Wheel
ers statement is ''whclly untrue" The
only reason why the Meriden Company
built factory in Canada was because the
government of that country imposed tariff
upon plated goods produced in the United
States which made IL impossible for the
Meriden Company to send its goods there.

1t is quite as difficult to get at The facts
with regard to the effect of high license as in
the case of prohibitory laws. For instance
one prominent citizen of Nebraska writes
the New York Tribune that the high license
law Of that State 'has operated to repress
intemperance to a remarkable degree"
Another prominent citizen of the same State
says it "does not repress intempersnce in the
least nor any of the attendant evils growing
out of intemperance. 1t is perhaps unnec:
essary to say that the first prominent citizen
is a believer in license laws while the second

The many excellent mel who defer to the
opinion of their mothers-in-law should
pause to contemplate the woful dilemma into
which the Emperor OF the Great German
Empire has fallen. Queen Victoria, unless
all accounts belle her, Is an inveterate match
maker Having married her youngest
daughter TO Prince Henry Of Battenberg
she thereupon set out to arrange another
match between his brother, Alexander.
Prince of Bulgaria, and her granddaughter,
the young German Princess, second daughter
Of the Crown Prince, who is now Emperor.
The European correspondents give Queen
Victoria the credit for arranging match
most suitable from the point Of view of
everyone but the statesman. For beauty
and sweetness Of character on one side, and
for splendor of manly strength and soldierly
achievement on the other, the young people
might well enlist the sympathies Of the
world. But the young soldier happens to be
hated intensely by the Car; and the young
lady belongs to family that Is extremely
anxious to keep the Gar In good humor. So,
Just the moment Grandmother Victoria pro-
posed the match. Grandfather Kaiser Will
liam Indignantly put a veto on the whole af-
fair. But with the death Of the old Emperor
Queen Victoria brings the affair up again
the new Emperor is won over. apparently an
easy victim to his mother-in-law's preaching;
Prince Alexander buys his ticket for Berlin:
and there is a prospect of great family
gathering and many congratulations at Ber-
lin. When things have gone thus far, the
grouty Bismarck begins to perform, breaks
Of the match and breaks up Queen Vlcto-
ria's plans, to say nothing OF the hearts that
may or may not be broken. Meanwhile, the
situation In which this leaves the Emperor
Frederick is not happy. Had he let the
match go on, or should he in the future coun-
tenance 1t. he might have lost the services of
Bismarck, and would certainly have defed
the Car. But now he breaks 1t off and pub
fishes to the world that the Emperor Of all
Germany is SO afraid of the Gar that he
dares not allow his daughter to marry the
young prince whom the Russian potentate
disapproves. His excellent mother-in-law.
who has inveigIed him into the dilemma.
is powerless to help him. The only way out
of the dilemma seems to be for the young
Princess to put her foot down, tell Bismarck
that the affair is none OF his business, and
thus yindicate the independence OF Germany.

The beginning Of the great New Hamp-
shire law suit by which the Concord railroad
hopes to wrest the Boston, Concord q Mon
treai road from the Boston & Maine moves
the Manchester Mirror to express the npin-
ion that there must be for a motive some
thing besides the belief that the property is
of Itself very desirable. The Boston, Con-
cord & Montreal has not been a very profit
able road. 1t is said that 1t does not now
pay operating expenses. Its revenues come
mainly from two sources-mountain travel
and the lumber business Those from the
first are likely to increase steadily, but the
lumber Of the horthern regions. which are
tributary, Is being rapidly swept away, and
in twenty years will be gone With it will
90 large share of the receipts of the road,
never to return. Nor is the prospect bright
that the rocky soil along It's length will ever
contribute enough of any other produce to
build up great local traffic. But the Bos-
ton, Concord & Montreal stretches from Con-
cord up into the mountain regions of New
Hampshire where is the meeting ground
with the railroad lines that come In from
Canada and the West In this common
meeting ground the Boston. Concord q Mon
treal has but one competitor that would take
the traffic of the West from the Canadian
roads and pass 1t ialong to the seaboard.
That competitor is the Portland & Ogdens-
burg. Over one or both Of the two roads will
probably pass much of the freight that the
Canadian Pacific will pour from the West to
the Atlantic seaboard. This circumstance
1t is that gives to the one the great value that
makes 1t worth a contest OF surprising mag
nitude and expense. prolonged from the
Legislature to the courts. Why the same
circumstance should not make the other
equally desirable is question Of great inter-
est to Portland. While the Boston & Maine
is fighting so strenuously to obtain a through
line from Boston by continuing its lease Of
the Boston, Concord & Montreal, Is there
not some Maine corporation interested in
Portland, that might obtain for the Portland
& Ogdensburg the advantageous western
connections that seem to be the prize sought
in the great contest in New Hampshire9

THURMAN ON THE TICKET.
WHAT THOSE SAY WHO ARE URG-
ING HIS NOMINATION.

Representative Cultivate Confident
that He Would Garry Indiana and
Possibly Ohio-Though 73 Years Old
He is Said to be Hale and Hearty
Carlisle's Chances.
WASHINGTON, May 29-No one in Wash
ington has any authority from ex-senator
Thurman for the statement that he would
accept place on the ticket with President
Cleveland. Secretary Whitney, William
l.. Scott and the other men who think
Judge Thurman the most available candi-
date, and are pressing the movement to
nominate him, can only say that they BE-
lieve that Judge Thurman would accept
because they do not believe he would shlrk
his duty to his party. Representative
Cultivate, of Columbus, who is Judge
Thurmans closest friend in Washington,
has received no communication from Judge
Thurman about the matter, but he said to-
day that he thought Judge Thurman, if
nominated with unanimity, would not re-
fuse the honor thus rendered him.
WOULD NOT REFUSE.
He knew that Judge Thurman did not
wish the nomination for Vice President,
but he felt sure that Judge Thurman would
not refuse 1T If it was properly offered him.
He said that the idea prevalent here that
Judge Thurman had grown enfeebled in
mind or body was absnrdly false. 1t was
started, he said, three years ago by per-
nicious political tricksters who wished to
keep Judge Thurman out of the Cabinet.
In this attempt they succeeded, because the
President had then no means of getting at
the truth about him. Since then he had
seen him and learned with regret that he
had been deceived.
NOT AN INVALID.
Judge Thurman has rheumatism and
neuralgia. but otherwise is as
strong mentally and physically as he ever
was. His occasional participation in poll
tics does not show this as plainly as his two
months hard and constant work as q prose-
cuUor of the tally sheeJ rascals at Columbus
last winter This work, which so wore
upon exRepresentative Converse that he
went to bed sick, had no unfavorable effect
upon Judge Thurman. Mr.. Cultivate
says Judge Thurman, though 73 years old
is in full vigor, that he would make a
splendid candidate and an admirable Vice
President, and as a candidate he would
carry Indiana by 5000 more majority than
Gov. Gray could.
MIGHT CARRY OHIO.
Mr.. Cultivate thinks that he could carry
Ohio also, though this would depend some
what upon who was nominated on the Re-
publican ticket
Carlsle's name was mentioned to-day at
the capitol quite as much as Judge Thur
mans. The fact that the President has ex-
pressed no preference for any particular
candidate has left Democrats free to scatter
their preferences within the limitations
fixed by the general understanding that the
President does not like the idea of having
any member of his administration put upon
the ticket with him. Well-informed Demo
Gratis now count Messrs Gray, Black, Nor
rison, Stevenson and Villas out of the race.
