STRUCK FoR SIxPENCEAD.y

The recent labor troubles in France
which were only. subdued by the heavy
batons of the police are peculiarly sug-
gestive to American laborers.
The strike was declared because the
individual employers refused to pay the
increase of wages which had been grant
ed by the Municipality of Paris to the
navvies employed by the city. That in
crease which the city granted and the
employers refused was from four pence
TO StG pence day.
The testimony of the Congressional
Committee shows that the contractors
who have been importing foreign labor
tons charged 81 20 to 81 .2j day for the
commonest unskilled labor.
Although half million ofpeople from
foreign countries come here yearly look
ing for employment this country pro-
vides for all, and still holds the wages
Of navvies up to Sl.25 who had been
striking in vain at home for an increase
from four pence to six pence day.
Although the surplus labor of Europe
is being thus drained every year, idle
ness want Unemployment, and wrctched-
ness still continue and employers still
refuse to pay more than four pence a
day to unskilled labor.
What is the moral of all this? Shall
we abolish Castle Garden, Quarantine
and the Custom House and say to all
the world, Come and take possession
Of our favored land; bring over free the
products of your pauper labor and we
will buy them for their cheapness in
preference to those manufactured by
our fellow citizens; bring over your
four pence day navyies and we will
give them the preference Unemployment
to the exclusion of our high priced citi-
zen labor" Or shall we take counsel
with each other as the sovereign citi-
zens of the most advanced and favored
commonwealth on earth, and determine
as patriots to hold steadlast the blessings
of our free institutions and our superior
industrial system and transmit them to
our posterity in all the purity and grand
eur secured by the best genius and
blood of the Republic?
This is the kernel of the great Ameri-
can issue which American consumers are
called upon to decide in this election

A GREAT PAINTNG.-The battle Of
Gettysburg is a subject that interests
everybody, a fact proven by the con
tinued attendance on the platform at
the cyclorama binding 54l fremont St.
Boston. Every figure on the canvas is
full of life and action, and fire seems to
flash from the eyes of the artillery
horses as they madly rush into the hot
test of the fight to release the disabled
cannon at the front. Few realize that
this year closes this great exhibition in
Boston, but this is so, A new subject
equal in every respect to the present one
will take its place at the close ofthe sea.

opportunity to see the greatest of al
American battles will have something tC
regret all their lives; but they will sec

That's what men are who plod-try-
ing to do their business, when they feel
half dead, Their eyes are dim and
throb; their head aches; the children
annoy them; their wives lose their
charms; they lose their ambition; they
make mistakes in their accounts, and
the whole world looks blue; they hate
themselves and everyone else. And
why? II you feel so, why don't you stop
and think a minute--Or are you too
stupid? Your liver and blood are out
of order; that's all. You need a good
regulator and tonic. Take bottle of
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
and you will feel like new man. In
three days your wife will be the prettiest
aud sweetest woman in the world;
your children's dispositions will be ex
actly like your own, your business will
improve, and you will make money
enough to pay for the Golden Medical
Discovery" a hundred times over.
Don't be stubborn, but try it.

Lower Duties Would Increase the
Tariff

A reduction of the tariff on imports
will not necessarily reduce the federal
income; the danger is the other way.
If q reduction of twenty five per cent.
should have the effect to treble importa-
tons it would increase the income two
and and one fourth times; and if impor-
tations should be trebled by a reduced
tariff Of so per cent. then the income
would be increased at the same rate.
In any event importations would be in
ceased, and to some extent our own
people would 20 without employment or
and the country's wealth be transferred
to other shores. If great disasters are
to be averted, our American system
must be maintained. Let the reduction
come from internal revenues and from
sugar which everybody uses.-[St. AL
