A POINTED SPEECH.

Henry George, the agitator, is
peculiar, but he is nobody's fool.
He has excellent reasoning facul-
ties, and he knows how to state a
fact in clear, logical and convince
ing way. Recently Mr.. George ad-
dressed political meeting in New
York City, and among other things
said:
If protection can raise wages why
aren't wages higher in this country?
If it can provide labor, why, ac-
corling to Mr.. Powderly's figures,
are there n million unemployed
men in this country? Is it not
about time for us to try freedom?
Protection is an insult to the intelli-
yence of men. It is the denial OF
liberty. 1t docs not protect us
against cold, but against coal. II
makes every suit Of clothes which
we buy dearer than it should be
The plain object Of protection is te
give certain persons an advantage
that they otherwise would not have
In other words, it permits certain
persons to levy taxes on their fel
low citizens. 1t is upheld by knaves
and believed in by fools. Many
honest men believe in it, but as
their eyes open they will see that
they have been fooled. Every re
striction adds to the power Of mo-
nopoly, and what we want is free
dom and equality.

In growing trees on our Western
prairies better care must be taken
of them than in the East, where
there is more rain and the climate
more favorable. Constant, unre-
uniting work, care and attention
must be given to them the first few
years. Remember you are not back
East, where the whole atmosphere
is filled with leaves and moisture,
and where trees grow almost spon-
taneously; but you are here sur
rounded by a treeless prairie, where
the rain fall is light and the air dry.
You can not carelessly set out lot
of trees and expect them to care for
themselves. If you are going to
grow trees you must make up your
mind to work them or you had bet
ter let them entirely alone.

HARRISON AND FRESHMEN.

While the republican press is in
geniously working to ALLEVIATE Irish
Americans from the democratic
party by reference to English free
trade, it has evidently not anticipa-
ted the publication Of bit Of his
tory which shows that Benjamin
Harrison's hatred Of them is quite
as intense as his love of the Chi
nese. The New York Star says:
Mr.. William Condor, of Bloom
ington, Illinois, in a letter to Mr..
r. r. Jones, of East Randolph, in
this State, testifies that a meeting
held at Bloomington, shortly before
the election in November, 1876,
Benjamin Harrison used this Ian
guage:
It is easy to know that mans
race; you know what they are. II
it were not for them we would not
need half of our penitentiaries
which are almost full Of them
They have no intelligence. They
are only good to shovel dirt and
grade railroads, for which they re
ceive more than they are worth, as
they are no acquisition to the
American people.
The race he referred to was tn,
Irish, and the man his. language re
ferred to was an Irishman who in
terrupted Harrison with question
and was being put out Of the hal
by doing so. The question he asked
which was elected by some remarl
Of the speaker, was this:
How..about the Irish, and wher
were Meagher, Sheridan, Shields
Mulligan and others?
Mr.. Condor says. that he has o.
ten related the circumstance an
that the language is fixed in hi
mind beyond possibility Of doub
Schuyler Colfax spoke at tn
same meeting, and the latter relate
many incidents Of the evenin
which shows how great an impre'
sion the question made on NJ
Condon's mind.
The letter was published La
week, and has now been sever;
days before the public without an
contradiction. There is no doul
that Harrison uttered these sent
ments, which are in accord with Il
convictions and declarations Of b
early life, as well as with the poll
zeal principles learned from h
father, who was strong and bitt'
native American member Of Co
gress.

Tariff Legislation.

WASHINGTON, July 17.---It is generally
believed that the tariff bill will be finally
completed in the house not later than
next Monday or Tuesday, and possibly,
by Saturday of this week. Mr.. Bynnm,
Democratic member of the committee
on ways and means, says an effort will
be made at once to reach an understand
ing whereby the bill will be completed
Saturday. There will not be vote
taken, however, for two or three days
after the bill is practically completed as
both parties will want little time
within which to summon here the mem
bers who are ont of the city. There is
little doubt in the minds of the most ex
perienced members that the bill will
reach the senate next week. 1t is
thought the debate in the senate will
not occupy more than ten days, many of
the senators having made tariff speeches
while the presidents message was under
consideration.
WASHINGTON, July II. - Chairman
Mills said this afternoon that the house
will finish consideration of the tariff bill
tomorrow or by Thursday at the latest,
and an effort will be made to get final
vote Saturday. Should there not be
full attendance Saturday, a vote will be
taken Monday.

RIvALrNG THE JARNDYoE CASE.
Baby Heirs Have Grown Old ard Gray
Pending Settlement of n Claim.

WASHINGTON, July II. The house
committee on commerce has just re-
ported favorably claim which has been
before congress for nearly seventy years,
1t is the claim of the heirs of James and
William Crooks Sor about $1,000. 1t ap-
pears from the records in the case that
in 1872 James and William Crooks were
the owners OF the Canadian schooner
"Lord Nelson, which with its cargo was
seized on Lake Ontario by American
forces. The owners were British sub
jects and the seizure occurred two weeks
before war was declared with Great
Britain. The schooner aQd cargo were
sold by order of the court, and the
money was placed in the hands
of the clerk, Thereon Rudd, until
further disposition should be determined.
The total amount was A,921 3d. Judg-
ment was finally obtained in July, 1877,
by the two Crooks for the full amount,
and the court ordered the payment of
the proceeds Of the sale to them. But
Rudd, the clerk, who held the funds, alb
seconded and the funds disappeared with
him. A claim for the amount was then
brought against the government, and in
February, 1919, President Monroe recon-
mended payment of the claim. A bill
gress and was fayorably reported. The
senate passed it, but it failed in the
house. The measure has been renewed
in varions congresses since that time.
In 1853 it was taken to the court of
claims, and judgment was rendered in
favor of the claimants. The war then
came on and James Crooks died, and
laser the other claimant was sent to an
insane asylum The matter was not re-
yived again until 1886, when the heirs of
the original claimants appeared. A bill
was introduced in the 4Sth congress, but
again failed of passage. This session it
was revived, and few days ago was
favorabiy reported for perhaps the TWEEN
tieth time in its history. 1t is hardly
probable that the bill will pass this year,
but it may be expected to turn up again
as usual at the opening of the next ses-
Gior

Its Force in the Destruction

BExx1EMAS, Neb., July 17.-Benkle-
man was visited by a cyclone Monday
evening. The afternoon was hot and
sultry. Toward evening the sky clouded
up very rapidly. A shower came, but
with it came fiercer storm than any of
the weather prophets had bargained for.
About Z O'Clock dreadful funneled
shaped clouds formed southwest of the
city. Everybody rushed for cellars and
dugouts. They had barely got under
shelter when the air was full of flying
timbers. The fine Presbyterian church
just completed was torn from it's founda-
ton as if built of pasteboard The
whirling visitation with a dreadful,
roaring sound, swept down through the
city destroying every thing in it's path.
One row of twenty frame houses, was
wiped out in shorter time than it takes
to write it, while all the cellars in the
business part of town were completely
flooded by could burst. Large guam
titles of merchandise were destroyed by
the water. Reports from the country
say that in some sections the hail de-
stroyed crops completely, and several
horses and cattle are reported killed or
drowned. The heavy rain benefited all
crops, which were burned out by dry
weather

The Northern Pacific to Operate the Red

WINNIPEG, Man, July II. - It is
learned that an agreement is being
drawn up between the government and
the Northern Pacific. The conditions
have very important bearing on the
railroad policy of the government. 1t is
understood that the conditions of the
agreement are that the government
shall complete the Red River Valley
road intoWinnipeg and then hand it over
to the Northern Pacific to equip and
operate, the Northern Pacific paying
interest to the province for the amount
expended up to completion. Then the
Northern Pacific undertakes to build,
equip and operate the Portage link this
year and enter into an agreement to ex-
tend the system into Brandon next year,
and also to build branch line south to
the Souris country. 1t is also tacit un-
derstanding that the Northern Pacific
will build series of branch lines in the
future in order to afford complete com-
petition in railroads TO the people of the
province. 1t is further learned that the
Manitoba Central company is to be got
ten rid of. 1t is learned that Mr.. Oman
dunk who is here accompanied by Mr.
Rngsmill, representing the Now York
syndicate, is prepared to go on at once
with the construction of the Hudson
Bay railroad, and complete the whole
work on making certain arrangements
with the local government. The details
cannot be learned.

Nebraska District Courts.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE senate ju-
dietary committee considered the bill re-
Gently passed by the house fixing new
places for holding United States courts
In Nebraska. The committee found seri-
ous objections to the adoption of the
bill. Tho senate committee holds the
judges of the courts to be affected by
the measure are opposed to it, and that
the business will not warrant AN increase
of places for holding courts. Chairman
Edlnunds said that there were only 1913
criminal cases on the calendar of the
courts of Nebraska, and that he could
not see that it would be necessary to in
orease the burdens of the courts by du-
plicating the number of places at which
terms of court shall be held, 1t was ir,s
timated by the committee, however, that
possibly a substitute bill would be draft
ed giving Nebraska one more place at
which court shall be held in the future.

THE NORTHWEST CENTENNIAL.
Mrs. Mary A. Livermore Outlines the Ca
pabilities of Her Sex.

pabilities of Her Sex.
MARIETTA, July 17.-In her address at
the Northwest centennial Mrs. Liver
more said that in investigating the
history of the pioneers she had been led
to ask; s'What of the women associated
with these heroes?' She then reviewed
Ghe influence of women in the Revolu-
tionary period, and traced it in the char
acter of the husbands and sons of that
time. One of the great features of the
ordinance of 1887 was that it changed
the law of inheritance SO that women
could inherit property, and it was the be-
ginning of the practice of abolishing
primogeniture, which has been followed
by the states carved out Of Ohio territory
Another provision of this ordinance es-
tablished universal education, and was
largely responsible for the co-education
of the sexes, in which the northwest still
leads and which is having its effect in
the higher intelligence of the women
of the country. In conclusion,
Mrs Livermore said 'If women have
proved themselves worthy of all trusts
thus far committed to them, shall there
be hesitancy in trusting them yet far
ther? They can be safely given the care
of estates, schools, prisons, charities and
institutions. If they are faithful as
wives, mothers, homekeepers and CO.
workers with men, can there be doubt
they will show equal fidelity in the wise
use of the ballot, to which the largest
