"republCani was correct in theory
that II gave diversified industries an EN-
pluyment, and increased the influence
of the country upon other countries:
while free trade, or, as he said it might
better be called, "free waste" tended
altogether in the opposite direction.
He claimed, however, that in practice,
at present, protection gave its greaest
benefits to manufacturers and raised
prices to consumers, and that the only
proper way to carry out the protective
principle was through national co-opera-
ton, SO that its benefits might fall
equally upon producer and consumer.
Internal commerce he characterized rs a
necessary and proper industry, but the
foreign commerce, which takes away
raw products and brings back manufact-
ured, as wasteful and perniCiOus gener-
ally.
In the discussion which followed sew
eral present expressed themselves as in
clinel to free trade, while others favored
the protection idea, while others, again,
insisted that as far as the working people
were concerned, the question was of no
interest to them. The benefits of either
one or the other scheme would go to the
controllers of commerce and industry
to the bosses; and workingmen were ad.
vised to keep in view the main object of
the labor movement-the abolition of
wage slavery, and not permit themselves
to be occupied with issues that could not
benefit them.
Before closing the chairman called at
tention to Edward Be'lamy's new novel,
Looking Backward" and recon-
mended ii to those present.

FINED FOR INCITING A BOYCOTT.
Albert Roemerer, of One Hundred and
Seventh street and Third avenue, was
hned T5 by Justice Duffy, in the Harlem
Court yesterday, for distributing circu-
lars asking the general public to boycott
orekeepers who keep their business
places open after p. m. Roemerer was
distributing the circulars in front of
Henry Schradzkis furniture store at
1858 Third avenue, and the furniture
dealer had him arrested.
Duffy must be a renegade Irishman;
it's wonder he hasn't changed his name
to Cholmondesley or some other English
apology for aristocracy. Duffy didn't
fine Mr.. Roemerer for boycotting, but
for melting to boycott and distributing
circulars asking the general public to
boycott storekeepers who keep their
business places open after 81 N Now,
while we can't see why bushes, houses
should close precisely at = p. m, and
while we on the contrary think that as
private parties are acknowledged the
righlful conductors of business. and own
their premises. they have perfect right
to keep open as long as they please after
6p. m. On the other hand, Mr.. Roe
merer had perfect right to distribute
circulars, provided his manner of doing
so was lawful, and he had right to tell
folks to boycott storekeepers who offend
him. But Duffy (the name is suggestive

CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
Discussing the Action of a Democratic"
Office Holder.

Nearly hundred delegates defed the
broiling heat last Sunday. attended the
session of the Central Labor Union and
waded through the business on hand.
The action of State Factory Inspector
James Connolly in assisting in the de-
feat of the bill providing for the appoint
ment of female factory inspectors, met
with almost unanimous condemnation,
although a proposition to demand his
removal was not carried. Connolly ap-
peared before the Law Committee OF the
union and tried to explain his position
by saying that the business of the de-
partment would have been clogged by
their appointment, and that the women
who worked for the passage of the bill
only did it to get positions for them
selves, These tlimsy excuses were not
satisfactory, and the inspector was con-
demned accordingly.
The Arbitration Committee were in
structed to adjust difficulties at Brom-
mer's Park, whose proprietor was
charged with having broken contract
with the Progressive Musical Union; also
to adjust the strike at Hastings furni-
ture factory, where the men were on
strike against working ten hours day
instead of nine according to their unions
regulation.
An attempt was made to raise the pool
beer boycott, because of a charge of inf
deity against the union brewers; but
a motion to that effect was promptly laid
on the table.
1t was voted to create the Office of sta
tistician.
The letter carriers were congratulated
for having secured the eight-hour work
day.

Mr.. George KEENAN, will tell in the May Cen
tury how he came to 20 to Siberia on the Cen
tury expedition. MIR. KEENAN, had spent some
time in Siberia already in connection with the
overland telegraph scheme, and in the summer
of 1884 he made preliminary excursion to st.
Petersburg and Moscow for the purpose of col
Letting material, and ascertaining whether or
not obstacles were likely to be thrown in his
way by the Russian Government He returned
in October fully satisfied that his scheme was
practical one. lie therefore sailed from New
York for Liverpool in May, 1885. He says: "All
my prepossessions were favorable to the Russian
Government and unfavorablc to the Russian
Revolutlonists." He adds that this partly
explains the friendly attitude towards me which
was taken by the Russian Government, the per
mission which was given me to inspect prisons
and mines, and the comparative immunity
from arrest, detention, and Imprisonment which
| enjoyed, even when my movements and asso-
Citations were such as justly to render me an OBJ
ject of suspicion to the local Siberian authori-
ties.n

WILMA FARMERS CLUn.
Forestry,

The subject of forestry was brought very fully
before the club through the kindness OF Hon
B. +. FcInon, Chief of Forestry Division Depart
ment of Agriculture, who on the application OF
our chairman, L. L. Bovine, to the Agricultural
Department at Washington for Information on
the subject, kindly sent us vOluininous material.
This was early distributed among the members
of the club aud the interest seemed general.
In the discussion of the subject at our regular
meeting, the following considerations seemed
OF most Importance to the ordinary farmer and
were very fully and earnestly subscribed to, by
our members, viz: That the sleeper hill sides
and roupher portions of every farm should be
kept in forest. That besides all the beneflcept
influences exorted by forests. like other crops IL
cultivated aud integently cared for they may
be made II permanent and increasing source OF
revenue. The beneilcent climatic influences
of forests are considered fairly proven. by keep
ing the surface cool and moist they influence
condensation powerfully, especially in summer
when we most need rains. and cannot then de.
pend on the cold north winds to throw them
down. If the surface OF the country is hot and
dry. the mists OF the ocean sweep over and are
not brought down in the form OF rain. The
tendency of summer showers to follow and con-
fine themselves to wooded valleys and the course
of streams, has been observed by all farmers,
especially by those who live on the higher and
drier hills, who have been tantalized during
seasons of drouth by seeing their neighbors in
the valleys and along the coasts receive conOus
showers for which they were suffering.
Treeless deserts receive no rain. The ocean
vapofs sweep over them, and meeting the wood
ed cool mountains are there condensed fall and
run back in rivers to the sea. 1t is considered
proven that ocean islands within or near the
tropics once stripped of their native forests, dry
to deserts. 1t is considered proven that forests
by holding the moisture in the soil and giving
of springs and water-courses through the sum
mer.

Our County Fair,

Mcssrs. John Moores and B. F. Hanway, a
committee of directors of the Hartford Coun-
ty Agricultural Society, last Saturday ex-
amined the books and accounts of the Trea-
s'urer, Mr.. Geo. r. Cairnes. and found them
correct The newly-eected directors are
perfecting their arrangements for the next
fair, which will be held at Bel Air on Oct. 9th,
10th, 18th and 18th, 1885, The stockholders,
at their annual meeting in January, reduced
the admission fee to 25 cent?, and there is,
therefore, reason to believe that the attend
ancc will be large. All who feel an interest in
these annual exhibitions of the industry and
resources of our good old county should be-
gin now to prepare something for the fair.
The success o. the society does not depend
alone upon the efforts of the directors. They
will, we are assured, do everything in their
power to make the fair success, but unless
their efforts are aided by the people of the
county failure will result

Friday Rornins, April 20, 1888.

The release hy JUDGE Yelott on wrts of
habeas corpus, of Deckmnn, Black, Standi-
ford anil Mr.. Smith, convicted ut the Noycm-
her term of court aud sentenced TO pay GER
tain fines respectively for violation of the
local option law was obtained, We under
stand, on TWO grounds:
First, the parties had each served sixty
days in jlii, which paid the penalty Of the
law, unless the court, nt the time Of impos-
ing sentence, had made the imprisonment
cumulative in default OF payment oftinc; that
is, sixty days imprisonment in each case,
one sixty days to commence at the eXpra-
tion of the other. Not having so done, Judge
Yellott, according to law ard established pre-
cedent held that the service of sixty days in
jail paid the penalty of each offence, just us a
person convicted of larceny from two differ
ent parties and sentenced to the prnitentiary
for five years in each of the TWO different
cases, would satisfy both sentences by
one service of five years, unless the two terms
of five years in each case were made cumula-
tive.
Secondly. the cause of detention produced
by the Sheriff in his return to the writs of
habeas corpus was in each case a writ Of
capias al satiJdcieHdum. This was the old
civil writ used to arrest and imprisOn II man
for debt. Imprisonment for debt was abolish
cd by the Constitution Of 1851 and conse-
quently became obsolete and no longer used
in Maryland. Imprisonment for debt can
not now be inflicted in this State.
The writ recites that whereas the State of
Maryland, at the November term of Court,
1887, recovered against a certain Sarah f..
Smith las well the sum OF one hundred and
fifty dollars, certain debt, as the sum of
thirty-fOur dollars and sixty-flve cents, for its
costs, charges" &c, therefore the Sheriff is
commanded to take the said Sarah f. Smith
and have her body before the Court on the
21st ofMay next, "lo satisfy to the State of
Maryland the said dejt and the costs and
charges aforesaid"
This was the identical writ in all the cases,
and is, of course, Imprisonment for debt upon
the face of the writ itself, which is now I'M
lawful in this State Besides which, fine is
punishment and not debt, rs enormously
asserted in the writ above named
Upon this state of the papers before him,
including the return made by the Sheriff that
the parties were held under an obsolete writ
and imprisoned for debt owed to the State
of Maryland, Judge Yellott, it appears, could
of course do no otherwise than discharge
them. This is merely another instance of
the GLORIOUS uncertainty of the law

Meeting of the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee.

The Democratic State Central Committee
was called to order, at Batnum's Hotel,
Baltimore, on Tuesday, by Hon. Stevenson
Archer, chairman.
Col. John Carroll Walsh, of Hartford coun-
ty, offered u resolution fixing upon Baltimore
city as the place and the 10th of May as the
time for holding the State convention, for the
purpose of electing two delegates from each
ongrcssional district, and four delegates from
the State Mt large to the National Democratic
Convention, to be held at St. Louis June 9th,
to nominate candidates for President and
Vice President, and electors favorable to the
election of the Democratic nominees.
Also that conventions be held in the several
congressional districts on May Gath, for the
purpose Of nominating candidates for Con-
gress. The city Of EIavre de Grace was named
as the place of meeting of the convention
for this the second district
Mr.J. Fred C.. Talbot, of Baltimore couu-
ty, wanted an earlier date for the convention
N This district, and debate ensued, in which
Col. Walsh, Congressman Frank T. Shaw,
Mr.. VIM. II. Vanderford, ofCarroll, and Col.
i. Victor Baughman, took part.
Mr.. Talbott's amendment was defeated
and Col. Walsh's resolution stood as propos-
ed by him.
The sentiment of the Democrats who were
present was unanimous for the re-nomina-
ton of President Cleveland
The friends of Col. John Carroll Walsh
have suggested him as one of the delegates to
the st. Louis convention from this district.
Col. Walsh is an able and earnest Democrat,
and would reflect credit, in his representative
capacity, upon auy constituency.
