What is reflective TARIFF"

It IS a tariff upon foreign imports 50
adjusted as to secure the necessary reve
nue. and judiciously imposed upon those
foreign products the like Of which are
produced At home. It imposes the duty
upon the-eompetiae foreign product; it
makes il bear the burden Of duty and, as
far as possible, lOxuries only excepted,
permits the non-competing foreign pro-
duct to come in free Of duty. Articles Of
common use, comfort and necessity,
which w cannot produce, it sends to the
people free from custom house exactions.
II says to our foreign competitor. If YOU
want 10 bring your merchandise here,
your firm products, your coal and iron
ore. your wool, your salt, your pottery;
your glass, your cottons and wOolens,
and sell alongside of our producers, We
will make your product pay for the priv
ilege Of doing it. 1t makes the compel
ing foreign article carry the burden. draw
the load, supply the revenue; and in per
y iAaAAG NlAc tH-cAAtANl VAtANts II CilsNui-
ages, at the same time, our Own people
in u cir chosen employments. This is
what the the Republican party is fighting
for. 1,ere is no conflict Of interest be-
tween the evercl classes Of producers
and consumers in the United States.
That which benefits one benefits all. The
the manufacturer, the laborer,
the tradesman the producer, and the con-
sumner, all have common interest in the
maintenance offs protective tIrif. The
establishment Of furnace or factory or
mill in any neighborhoOd has the effect
at once to enhance the value Of all prop
erty for miles surrounding it. The far
mer has a better and nearer market for
his produce. The merchant, the butcher
the grocer. have an increased trade. The
carpenter is in greater demand; he is
upon to build more houses. Every
branch oftrade, every avenue Of labor
will feel instantly the energizing infiu-
ence Of a new industry.

Couldn't Get Away With Much.

Emitted States Sub-Treasurer sutton,
suppose a thief should get into your big
vault some night"
No thief can get in there"
But suppose he could"
1t is impossible"
But say that some clever fellow did
~ in. how much could he carry away
IN gold "
Not more than $4,000. We put that
much in double eagles in a single bag,
the weight Of which is 100 pounds. That
Is a good deal Of weightiR mighty small
bundle, making it hard to carry. A thief
would have hard work to run with one Of
these bags, and couldn't manage to lug
two to save his life. You have no idea
how hard it is 70 carry 100 pound bag
Of gold. The weight is so concentrated.
But after all no thief can get in here.

invade Spain.


"Do you know that General Grant once
planned an invasion Of Spain % said a
prominent army officer TO a New York
Herald reporter.
1T was in 1874 he continued, and
the idea grew out of the bniehery Of
Ryan, the filibuster leader, and nearly
one hundred Of his followers at Santiago,
Cuba.
sThe execution Of these unfortunate
men was a most barbarous one, for they
were led out ina body, with Pinioned
arms, and compelled to kneel down in a
row in front ola rude trench that had
been dug beside a wall. They were then
shot and their bodies buried in the trench.
The affair caused intense excitement and
horror, and had not Spain made repara-
ton there would undoubtedly have been
a war.
General Grant was President at the
time, and he made every preparation fer
hostilities in the event Of Spain refusing
the demands of the United States Gov
eminent.
"He sent for Northumberland Sheri-
dan and rendered him the command Of
an expeditionary force he intended rais-
ing, should the necessity arise, and Ma
jor-General George c. Meade was select
ed as Sheridan's chief of staff.
THE preparations went on 50 far that
Meade offered me a staff appointment,
which / accepted, and thus became IA
miliar with Grants plans.
HE intended to issue a call for $1,000
veterans of the civil war, both Federal
and Confederate and the officers were to
be selected from the large number We
knew would offer their services. This
army OF $4,000 men was to be modified
in the neighborhoOd of New York, and
a fleet prepared to carry it across the At
lantie in two divisions. The idea was 10
pretend it for service on the island Of
Cuba, but really TO and on the shores
Of Spain and march inland to Madrid.
Both Grant and Sheridan deemed the
movement a feasible one, and had the
United States declared war it would have
been attempted.
There were two reasons for carving
the war into Spain. The American navy
could not compete with that Of Spain,
and Grant wanted to make the war a
short and decisive one. Every General
who had been informed of the part he
was to take was enthusiastic over the pro-
gramme. and none doubted ~Sheridan's
genius to make it successful. The Eng
lish are talking about an invasion, yet it
is not generally known abroad how near
Spain came to having an American army
landed on its coast and pushed forward
to Madrid. One Of these days such an
expedition will cross the Atlantic, for it
would be safer for the United States to
invade than to wait for INVASION

Was America Ever Discovered.

At the time when Columbus started in
search of the New World, nearly every
man, woman and child in Europe insist
ed that there was no New World to dis
cover. When he came back, crowned
with success, a Ia rye proportion of these
good people adhered to their y and
if they were alive to-day many ofthem
would doubles insist that America had
never been discovered at all. A man
will give up anything in the world more
readily than a pet theory. For example
look at the individuals who still main
tain that consumption is incurable. DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has
cured thousands upon thousands Of cases,
and viii cure thousands more, but these
people can't give up their point. Never
theless the Discovery" will cure any case
CT consumption, if taken in time.

The next scene is at the castle. The
Count is seated in his library. Elaborate
ly dressed, leaning back in his easy-chair,
he looks a though he might have step
ped out from the massive frame of the
portrait of Count Friedrich Friedholf-
the founder of the family.
His face softens rs his young daughter
~Irmengarde, a girl of fifteen, comes into
the room, and stealing to to his side,
touches her red lips lightly TO his fore
head.
Well, Irmengarde ?' he says, ques-
tioningly for at this time of day it is rare
for her to interrupt him.
"Norden is here" she says, gently !;
and even as she speaks the young man
comes forward, holding Hilda's hand.
Father he says, in a voice he in vain
tries to render steady, 81 have brought
you a present-a new daughter"
The count glances in SPECIFICS sur
prise from his son to this girl in a peas
ants garb thus strangely introduced into
his presence. Has Norden gone mad?
What do you mean?" he says at last,
hoarsely. "If you are jesting, it is but a
sorry trick. If not, you are no longer a
son of mine"
Norden's eyes quailed before his ia
theirs fiery glance. For the first time his
gay self confidence left him.
1T is true. Oh, father, will you not
forgive us?'
And the youth sank upon his knees and
drew Hilda down beside him.
"Foegire you! Nerer ! You can go and
take your-your uife with you. Co. Do
yor hear"
"Oh, father" said Irmengaide, plead
ingly, look at her. She has the face
of an angel No wonder Norden loves
her"
"No, l will not look at her-the low
born, the presuming."
But Irmengarde desisted not in her
endeavor to make peace.
Think Of our mother" still continued
the soft voice. Even as you loved her,
my brother"
Mention not your sainted mother in
such a connection"
And as he spoke, the count pointed to
the door, and turning to Nornen, said,
slowly and sternly
Sol Do not let me see your face
again
Norden grew pale to the lips. He had,
indeed, offended beyond forgiveness He
put his arm about Hilda.
Come" he said. "we are not the
first who have periled all for love and
lost. Remember, though turning again
to his father, "the fault is wholly mine,
not hers / was deceived, and 50 have
misled her. i felt so sure of your love

The town OF Sundance in Crook county
contains a large number of wide awake.
public spirited citizens, and they believe
in engaging in enterprises of all kinds
such as will have the effect of building up
the town and adding to the prosperity OF
the fine country surrounding the Crook
county metropolis. The latest enterprise
engaged in at that place is the prepare
tory steps toward the erection of an ele-
vator, and to this end articles of incor-
poration Of the Sundance Elevator com
pany have been filed in the Office of the
secretary of the territory. The capital
stock of the company has been fixed at
the sum of $4,000, divided into 100
shares of 800 each.
The principal place Of business will of
course be Sundance, and the object of the
formation of the company is sufficiently
indicated by the name. The trustees and
in%corporators of this company are w. W.
Baird, F. E. Rounds, Geo. Barton, Geo.

The erection OF an elevator at Sun
dance means two things. One being that

HEREFORD HOME RANCH, NEAR
CHEYENNE, Wyo., Oct. 22.-I have
carefully read the report of an informal
meeting of the voters and taxpayers OF
Willow Bend of this county which APP
peared in your issue of the 2lst inst, and
can truly say chat l heartily indorse the
sentiment OF the meeting. Ia other

and reform, and feel as a taxpayer that
the expenses of this county must be cut
down to the lowest point consistent with
good government.

needed-puts a big sum of money into
their hands for use as a corruption fund
to keep themselves n Office and power.

In a Critical condition.

A visit to the hospital by a special
LEADER reporter yesterday disclosed the
fact that Antoine Tillman, the old man
whose feet were virtually cut off on Tues.
day evening, is in a very critical condi-
ton, and it would seem that his chances
for recovery are not very good. The
amputation Of his mutilated limbs did not
take place yesterday as the doctors were
of the opinion that until he gets more
strength he will not be able to stand the
shock, and would probably die under the
operation or soon after.
