He DepIored Haste.

"There it is again." said dignified,
well dressed man as he came up to a
crowd which had gathered around an
other man who had just been rescued
from beneath truck drivers team on
Broadway: "the old story once more
a man nearly sacrifices his life to gain
Il few seconds of time. The rush and
hurry here in New York is actually as
tonishing, sir" and the dignified man
looked around with an expression of
sadness blended with wonder.
"You are not New Yorker, then 2"
said a man who was on his way to his
office in Wall street.
ooh, yes, sir" returned the dignified
party, eyes, live here in New York,
but L always deprecate this spirit of
hurry, this rush, this intense strain I'M

ly wounded, when if he had waited
the street in safety. 1t is this hurry"
went on the dignified man, "this
haste, this unnatural-oh, great ScOtt2"
he groaned, "there goes my car-but
I'll catch it or bust !" and he shot in
front of a furniture van, galloped
around junk cart, stepped on a news
boy, lodged the pole of an ice wagon,
and at last got hold of the rear plat
form of the disappearing car, and was
pulled in over the dashboard by the
conductor the way man hauls in a
seine full of fish, and got his coat
turned wrong side out, and his hat
battered and one thumb partially
smashed. "Why," he said, wouldn't
have missed this car for &c." and he
looked back complacently at another
of the same line coming not half a
block behind.

Is This Free Trade =?

Following is an extract from Speak
er Carlisle's Academy of Music speech
in New York, June 28th, upon the
Mills bill and the tariff:
The present average rate of duty up
on articles which the Mills bill pro-
poses to reduce is nearly &c per cent,
and if the measure should become a
law the average rate upon these arti-
cles would still be over AZ per cent,
while the average rate upon all duta-
BILE impOrtations would be 40 per cent.
Therefore, notwithstanding the pas
sage of this bill, the average tariff rates
of duty upon dutiable goods imported
into this country will still remain high
er than they were previous to 1864,
when the rates were greatly increased,
not for protection, but for revenue to
carry on the war. They will still be
five times as high as they were under
the first tariff law enacted in 1899,
when our industries were really in
their infancy. Notwithstanding the
passage of this bill, the average rate of
duty upon dutiable goods will remain
higher than the rates under the pro-
tective tariff of 1861 higher than the
protective tariff of 1924 higher than
the protective tariff of 1928 higher
than the protective tariff of 1912, and
higher than the protective tariff OF
1861, known as the Morrill, tariff.
We have been told over and over
again in the most glowing and extrav-
agant terms of the wonderful prosperi-
ty of our manufacturing Industries I'M
der the various tariffs to which [ have
referred, and unless, therefore, it can
be shown that these industries are
growing weaker as they grow older,
that they become more dependent I'M
der high tariffs than under low tariffs
it is difficult to see how they can be
injured by the passage of measure
which still leaves them a greater de-
gree of protection than they ever had
before the great civil war. The aver
age rate of duty upon dutiable goods
under the tariff of 1924 was less than
30 per cent. under the act of 1928 it
was less than 40 per cent. under the
act of 1S42 it was only little over 30
per cent, and under the Morrill, tariff
act of 1861 it was less than 353 per
cent.
If the authors of the bill now pend
ing in the house of representatives are
free traders, then Mr.. Clay and his as
sOciates were still more radical free
traders, because they never at any
time proposed to fix the duties upon
imported goods as high as this bill
will leave them. If the democratic par
ty and the president of the United
States are the enemies of American in
dustry and the allies of British mer-
chants and British manufacturers, then
the statesmen who framed the prOtec-
tive tariffs of 1916, 1924, 1923, 1912 and
1861, were much greater enemies of
those industries, and much more valu-
able allies of British interests.

Chicago's Underground Railway.

A company was recently incorporat-
ed to build an underground railroad
for Chicago and the surrounding coun-
try. The company is limited by it's
articles of incorporation to a capital
stock of $27 100000, and its general
plan is to build aud equip twenty sew
en- miles of road covering the several
divisions of the city, the underground
railway to be from 100 to 125 feet be-
low the surface. The plan of the road
contemplates digging a tunnel of suf-
ficient capacity to admit of a double
track road, with shafts or stations ev-
cry quarter of mile, and the necessa-
ry elevators to handle passenger and
freight business. The tunnel is to be
lighted and drained, and being built so
far below the surface as to go beneath
the sewers and water tunnels, would
be without objections. The cars are
to be operated by electricity.

The Chicago Platform.
CHICAGO Advance, RELIGIOUS.

No doubt the Indignation will be
deep and widespread in view of the
cowardly and wicked refusal of the
committee on the platform in the re-
publican convention to voice the SEN
timent of all good citizens respecting
the protection which the government
ought to afford the home against the
saloon. 1t was grievOus blunder. 1t
was kind of blunder which amounts
to a crime. 1t was just the kind of a
blunder which the merely cunning pol
ltician without conscience or moral
sense is prone to make. We do not
care to predict what the result will be.
OF this we may be very sure, that what
ever the platform may have said or re-
fused to say, or however hard the ma
nipulating politicians may have tried
to wink it out of sight, before the cam
paign is over they will find that the
question which they attempted to ia
boo is question which represents a
tremendously insistent and aggressive
force in the politics of to-day, and still
more SO in that of the future.

Fresh NIummies.
Bill Nye.

Among the many letters of inquiry
received during the past week is the
following:
LAST year made a trip abroad, and
among other trophies of my visit to the
old world | secured fine specimen of
mummy, for which 1 paid rs scudi.
While showing it to a friend last week
discovered that the air of Illinois is
detrimental to it, and that disintegra-
ton is taking place. Can yOu tell me
what is the cause and what l had bet
ter do in order to preserve the speci-
men intact 2"
You have no doubt paid at least "a
scudi too much for your mummy as
mummies go. Nothing is more dis
heartening than the discovery that
ones mummy is not standing our
harsh American climate. But the
chances are that you have what is call
ed the modern style of mummy, made
especially for Americans by the trade.
He is not an antique, and before Au
gust you will have to decide whether
to cast him aside or let him run the
house. The genuine mummy has been
ground up for fertilizing purposes dur
ing the past 20 years to such an extent
that we are running short and spurious
mummies made of coarse people who
have died recently are flooding the
market. A friend of mine purchased a
vanished king, supposed to be over
1900 years old, for which he gave $50
scudi and silk umbrella. In May of
last year he began to assert himself
the king did-and to enter more and
more into the home life OF his owner
till it was decided to have coat of
shellac put on him. A house, sign and
carriage painter came up to the house,
and while refitting and refurnishing
the royal relics discovered on the fore
arm dark blue Goddess of Liberty in
India ink and the legend, Orchard
Maginnis, Valparaiso, Ind, 1853" A
mummy that has to be kept in the re-
frigerator is bitter, bitter disappoint-
ment, and no doubt yours is of that
class. The modern methods of pre-
serving people do not in all cases
prove satisfactory, and do not know
of anything more pitiful or humiliating
than while explaining your mummy to
a coterie of friends in the library to
have him explode on your hands and
reveal his identity. Should disinte-
grafton continue in the case of your
own mummy, private funeral is the
best thing | could suggest

CURRENT AFFAIRS.
WHAT THE ISSUE is.
And How It Affects the American Peopl
Christian Union, Religious.

And How It Affects the American People.
Christian Union, Religious.
The republican party has taken up
the challenge of the democratic party,
and a clear and definite issue is present
ed to the American voter by tho con-
trasted platforms. Let us state this
issue in our own words. There is a
surplus in the treasury of $l25 100000
and an annual increase threatened of
$50, 100000 If the accumulation goes
on, the country will be soon involved
in hopeless bankruptcy, because in
that case the money which commerce
needs will be locked up in the treasury
vaults. To protect the nation from
this serious menace. two policies are
proposed. The democratic party pro-
poses to confine appropriations of pub
lie money to such sums as are neces
sary for an economical administration
of the government ; to retain tho tax
on alcohol to modify the tax on to-
baccO and to reduce the tax on imports
by admitting raw materials free of
duty and by reducing taxes on all arti-
cles of necessity. If this involves
some manufacturers in commercial dis
tress, the party will regard the indi-
vidual injury as counterbalanced by
the general good. The republican
party proposes to abolish the tax on
alcohol used in the arts and manufact-
ures if necessary, to do away with
the national tax on alcohol altogether !;
to retain the present tax on imports
unchanged to retain it,
not because it is necessary for revenue,
but because it will foster and promote
A g.,
wages, and it proposes to accompany
this policy of taxation with one of lib
eral appropriations, not only for imme
diate governmental necessities, but for
the construction of Il navy and of coast
for river and harbOr i'm
provements, for national aid to public
education, and for pensions. With
this explanation we put the policies of
the two parties in parallel columns, to
make apprehension of the difference
hetWeen the two easier and clearer -
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1888-07-12

1t would be an absurd and Il dishOn
Orable affection if we were to pretend
to look upon the Issue thus framed
with Indifference. We believe that it
has vital relations to the future of our
country. We believe that the coming
election will be likely to settle the
trend of national life for some years to
come Nor have we any wish to con-
ceal our personal predictions and
prejudices. They are in favor of eco
nomical expenditures and lowered
tariff.
