a FREE TRADkR'S FANcIEs.

IS g .Toha Jarrett, the Labor
leader, says Of Congressman Scouts
speech; "He says there is but fifty
per cent differeGce between The wages
oil England ami the Unrtet States,
while there is osrr 100 per cent diKvr-
encc. His estimate of the average
cost OF producing ion Of steel rails ar
C'arpeeies during 1897 is several dol.
lars to low 10 my aGtnsl knowledge.
His figures on structural iron and steel
beams are slill more fiigh.J, and his
argument on the process Of these
beams is ridiculous. Why didn't lie
give his own experience of 1882, when
he refused to pay reasonable wages to
his own workers, because the profits
were too lows
The awnser is simple. Mr.. Scott
abandoned figures from the factories
for figures from his own or Mr.. Cleve
lands head because the factory figures
are against free trade. He abandoned
them or grabbed them because they
show that the removal of the duty
will make it cheaper to import than
to manufacture iron aud steel goods
while present wages are paid. He
abandoned them because they would
show that the iron founders of the
United States would have to reduce
wages to the European STANDARD to
compete with European goods. 1t is
so much easier and more satisfactory
tofree traders to invent figures or
avoid practical statements altogether
in favor of theoretical assertions
The free traders effortto show that
the country has grown poorer under
protection breaks down before the
slightest consideration of the facts
Mr.. Scott refers contemptuously to
the "delusion" that the people of this
country can get rich swapping their
possessions among themselves, under
the apparent impression that the only
Increase of wealth in a country can
come from trading goods with a for
eigner and cheating him by our IA
tional sharpness in the course of the
bargain. If any one with the possible
exception of Mr.. Scott and a few of
his fellow manlacs will use his eyes he
can see that the country has increased
vastly in wealth compared with its
increase in population in the last ten
years. The people are growing richer
trading among themselves than they
would in the most successful attempt
to capture the foreign markets that
Mr.. Scott and his friends think of such
consequence.
There has as yet been no estimate of
the value of that foreign market, nor
has any one attempted to point out
where ii ia. A survey OF the world
shows total export trade far below
the internal commerce of the United
States. The portion that could by any
possibility be captured by the United
States by any sacrifice of wages, even
should the workman be reduced to
the traditional 'ten cents day. of the
Chinese, would not he one tenth of
our present internal commerce.
Free traders are wise in leaving
facts alone, and combining themselves
to bold assertions. The facts are not
with the free traders.--S. r Post.

OUR TICKET.

Lyon Co. Times: The Republicans
this year have placed in the field one
of the stronges, State tickets that
could have been chosen. 1t is ticket
too, that no one can find fanlt with
nor kick against.
For Congressman the name Of II. F.
Bartine will please all The gentle.
man is we'll known throughout the
State as an ardent Republican, and a
bright and intelligent speaker and
thinker; one also who is posted on all
subjects of interest to Nevada. There
10 no doubt of his being elected by a
good majority.
N. A. Murphy for Supreme Judge is
a wise selection. Mr.. Murphy has
held Offices of honor and Importance
before and there is not enc who can
truly say that he has not performed
mis- duty wisely, honestly and con
scientiously. He will make one of
the best Judges the State ever had, and
will be elected in spite of all the
Democrats can do or say.
For Regents of the State University
good men have been named: men who
are well qualified in all respects to fill
the position, and under their manage
ment there need be no fear that the
University affairs will be neglected
They are H. L. Fish, Of Reno; E. r..
George, OF Lander county; and T. H
Wells, of Carson.
The Presidential Electors are A. G.
Cleveland and Eugene Robinson. of
White Pine county; and G. F. Turritin
Of Humboldt county. They are all
representative Nevadans, and men
who will act for the best interests of
the Republican party.
The delegates and alterpates to the
National Convention make q remark.
ably strong team VIM. M. Stewart,
our Senator, will be the leader of the
team and there need be no fear that
Nevada will not be heard when the
time comes for the nominating of the
iPresidential candidate Nor will the
delegates allow any gold-wasiled plat.
form to be put up.
The ticket is strong in all respects,
.aad VIC predict for it a clean sweep
next November. There never was a
Democrat elected in the State by votes
from his own party. They hrve
always had to seduce a number of
Republicans to gain their election.
Republicans this year will stand to-
gethtr, and pull for the Whole ticket
if indications go for anything. There
Is no reason why they should not; it is
a. good ticket, and strong one.

ment Ia about an hour, and shall be ex-

The gentleman kindly and rashly acceded
TO her request and stepped into the chamber.
On the mantei stood an ordinary travelling
clock. He went up to IL, took out his watch
again and laid it on the shelf, while he pro-
ceeded to set the clock. The lady followed
him and picked up the time piece
"What a beautiful watch" she said.
"Yes,r be answered turning away from
the clock alt is an heirloom"

And as she spoke she showed him In the
other hand the key OF the door, which she
had noiselessly closed and locked. He looked
at her a moment In slence
"Very WE'LL" he said holding out his hand
for the key

"Yes" she responded.

out his pocketbook-
"Very well," replied the adventures, pro
ducing the watch.
He gave her the money. took the watch,
and departed a poorer but possibly wiser
