The Only Honest Protection.

The question Of the tariff should be one,
and is honestly one, Of wsges only. The
tariff should be just so high, and no high
er, as to protect American sgsinst Euro
pean labor. That is the only "protec-
ton" needed in this country. Having
thus protected" the American labor en-
gagged in manufacturing Industries, 1t
shuld protect" the other more extensive
American labor not employed in manufac'
turing industries by giving it an oppoE-
tunity to buy everything 1t needs at the
lowest possible price, and not compel 1t,
as at present, to buy of monopolists. trusts
or combinations. A tariff that will hon
estIy protect American labor in ell direc
lions, ard be sufficient for the honest and
economical administration OF the govern
ment, is the only tariff needed in thus
country.

Ordinary Citizan-That big tough with

'sThe same. You wouldn't suppose that
deep down in that mans soul there is an
unselfish, undying love for poor dumb
animal, would you?"
'No, wouldn't. l know him. "
''Well, sir, two days ago saw that man
walk into the tax Office and pay out 81 Tor

Natural enough. His dog is a pro-
fessional fighter, and he makes his living

And This L. an Era of Protection

The pitilul appeal for help for starving
women and children of the Lehigh valley,
the centre of the mineral wealth of this
great and wealthy commonwealth, does
not come in a period of free trade, but In
the full tide OF about the highest protec-
tive tariff the country has ever known.
Although the ng-:ontinued strike IN the
LshiRh region has been declared of, I"
the condition OF hundreds OF the striking
miners of that section and their stricken
families is fearful. 1t Is terrible illus
ration Of the extreme lengths to which
the nabobs of the coal fields carry their
way in order to crush the life out OF sill
opnosition.

FLOUR, GRAIN AND FEED
Wheeling

WhOoihS
TUESDAY, April "a.
There is no change in the local market,
although the demand for flour has i'm.
proved and prices are firm. Good
clean wheat still calls for IS cents
per bushel, and it is coming in
slowly at that figure. Corn is in
better demand; oats are in good de-
mand and hay is quiet. Bran and mid
dlings continue in good demand. Prices
on flour and grain are wholesale and are
as follows, retail prices being from so to
Is cents higher:
FLOUR AND GRAIN-Choice family fioul
barrels 81 so; in sacks & 35; middlings
per ton $40 00a21 90; bran per ton $40 W

ing passed into nine saloons. Daring the

rooms. The only way that the association
can successfully combat the saloons ia TO

A Modern Solomon.

1t has always been supposed that Solo
mon was the wisest man who ever lived,
but il looks now as if Mr.. P. T. Barnum is
worthy to wear the sage kings crown. A
Kentucky farmer recently wrote the great
Snowman that he had "the only three
legged chicken in the world" and would
plrt with it for $1,000. In the same mail
Mr.. Bsrnnm received a letter from Jer-
sey farmer who also claimed he had "the
only three-legged chicken in the world, "
sell it for $1,000. Mr.. Barnum simply
sent the Kentuckian's letter to the jersey
man and the Jerseyman's letter to the
Kentuckian. Could Solomon have done
auy better in deciding this case?
