Judge Gresham was In his courtroom on
Monday afternoon hearing a case. He sat
on the bench digniaej, handsome and
clean, listening TO the arguments. The
dull routine Of the courtroom proceedings
and the reading OF dry law decisions was
interrupted occasionally, as a messenger
brought In bulletins announcing the pro.
gress of the vote. AS II became apparent
that General Harrison would be the noml-
nee and the rush toward him began, all
eyes were turned toward Gresham to see
how he would take his defeat. At last the
messenger rushed in more breathless and
excited than ever. All the attorneys Ia
the case stopped in anticipation OF some
thing definite. The bulletin was taken to

Talks on the Tariff.

The following tariff talk comes
from ]. g. Hall, wool merchant OF
Chicago. Mr.. Halls vigorous Ian
guage will delight all the protection
lists:
"The short.sighted free trader asks;
why should l pay $50 for my i'm
ported overcost because of a tariff
when, under free trade / could have
it for $50? Why should $4,000, 900
people pay too much for woolen goods
ia the sale and profit of which only
100000 are bsnefited2
"Weli, sir, of the 10000 ,000 Of
people in this country, 10, 600, 900 are
the producers, viz: Farmers, mechan-
les, manufacturers, merchants, bank
ers, editors, lawyers, ministers, physi-
clans, etc, and these 10000, 900 who
work aud figure how best to care for
the 30, 100000 are the ones who ought
to decide as to how the money shall
be made and spent.
Zone million wool. growers say to
the 5000, 600: 'Allowsus to put tariff
on wool, and we will be able to buy
your products st goodRprices.' A mil
hon manufacturers Of wooden goods,
say the same as to their interest. A
million sugar men and 1900, 600 iron
men say the same. and last and chiefly,
4, 1000. 600 farmers raising grain swell
the chorus with: Keep every factory,
mill and wool grower busy, and we
will give them bread at good prices.
And 80 the entire 100000 are help
ing each other tc a good business and
continued prosperity, while foreign
markets will take of us Gust as they
always have and always willy only

should the importation OF all foreign
products and material common to this
country be controlled by high tariff,
but offensive foreigners, too-Anar-

land been dumping ground for the

Low tariff and free trade means
floods of foreign products at low
prices, till every mill and factory is
closed, and every sheep killed, and
then how quick the foreigner would
advance prices to point of squeezing
out what little life there was inus. If

THH Sons OF Temperance, who are
custodians of the ice water fountain
in Independence Square, Philadelphia,
are making an earnest effort to raise
money with which to keep the foun-
tain supplied with ice during the sum
mer. Ice water has become q neces.
siky to the city resident. for the
ordinary reservoir water Is not fit to
drink In warm weather. We believe
that she friends OF temperance could
serve their cause in no way better
than by supplying public fountains
with ice water. The man who has the
choice OF cool glass OF beer and q
warm glass OF water from the
hydrant will naturally take the beer,
provided that he has the requisite
nickel in his pocket. But II the choice
lay between a glass Of ice water that
cost nothing aud glass of beer that
costs five cents, the ordinary man would
take the former. OF course we do not
look for any ice water fountains in
Wilmington, for it took extraordinary
effort to get the fountains running at
all this summer, but ii would be a
healthful and in the end a profitable
addition to the community.

apologist for Toryism, as Tennyson Is now
taking back what he said in s.Loclsley Hall. y
aud two or three times in history poet has
sold his talents to the court as John Dryden
did; but ell the real live poets are on the side
Of emancipation, popular freedom and prog
ress, SO we know that Burns, who favored
Cancellation to America, would now favor
more freedom in Ireland.
There is something in the very afr Of The
Burns neighborhood that rouses tho inspira-
tion Of freedom; the "Bonnie Doom hrawl-
ing over its rocky bed, the wild and roman
tic hills that line it, the gently rolling up
lands, tho rich green OF the fields and pure air
rolling in from the Atlantic-all these make
one feel rs II he were on freedoms holy
ground. And one cannot rightly appreciate
Burns poems till he rumbles over the coun-
try. Here IS tho BRIG o Doom" Just as It
was in Burns time; here Is the low cottage
Americans are inclined b call 1t howell ia
which be was born; all around are the fields
Of his boyhood, not materially changed, and
not far away the sublime heights which
never change The "wee modest daisies, the
blue bells, the heather and all the grasses
and shrubs of the poems are stiI here. and
the Scotchiest Of Scotch people. One needs a
a glossary Of Burns poems to travel here So
cially. But the town of Ayr Is wonderfully
changed. Il Is city, and thriving one.
] said the love Of home rule was in the air;
il is also strong in Ayr, where Gladstone is
almost worshiped.
The language Of this country, by the way,
the language in which Bnrns' popular songs
nre written, is not the ancient Language of
Scotland, not the Gaelic; it is really a
branch OF tho original Anglo Danish Saxon,
about what that Of middle and northern Eng
land would be if there had been no Norman
invasion, and very much what that OF
Northumberland is where education has not
Normanized the people. The old Gaelic
commonly pronounced Gaulicl is almost ex-
tinct; but the Scotch Of Burns time is still
spoken in force and beauty by millions And
we Americans no doubt lose much Of the
beauty Of his simple lyrics and lighter
satires by having TO study out tho meaning
Of every third or fourth word. Nor is it in
tho words alone; it is in tho peculiar and
forceful idioms that the strength lies. To
the people who realize at once tho meaning
of these idioms there is both keen wit and
bomely wisdom in the satires aimed at the
clergy. 1t is not the least Of Burns titles to
greatness that through his poems this Scotch
dialect is known TO millions who would
otherwise never have heard word OF it

lt is rarely that a campaign thus opens
with such general good temper. II is too
much TO hope shat this will be maintained
sill November, bat at least we can count
upon comparative freedom aud personal
and sectional animosities and there Is no
reason Why the general course OF discussion
should not be wholesome and educating.
IL is the Hrst time in many years that
questions Of practical policy have been sub
mitted 10 the people in just this way and
there Is great opportunity for the disssm-
nation OF sound American ideas. The
nomination Of Harrison has evidently done
nothing TO bring back the New York
