NEW HAVEN CONN, MORNING, OCTOBER 1888

corning the home market: The talk about
 sharing foreign markets, if we have free trade
 in raw materials, is nonsense. Every manu-
 featuring nation of Europe, with labor
 cheaper than ours, is making more goods
 than it can consume, and it would be impos- l sible to find market for our goods in those countries, except for such as are not made | there. As for the rest of the foreign mar ket, South America, Asia and Africa, Euro peans already have the inside track and will
 keep 1t as long as they can keep the price of
 labor lower than in the United States. Mean 1 while we have market at home which is far from being supplied by cur own manufac- lures. Here are 50, GOO, 900 millions of peo- pie, mostly industrious, well housed and well paid, and we are importing millions of dollars worth of goods in spite of the protec- tive tariff to supply their wants. Make
 these 60, COG, ,00o of peoply busy and they will furnish market for all we can make for years to come. Stop their industries or
 lower their wages by admitting cheap for-
 eign goods freely, and their power of con-
 sumption will be checked Viewed in any
 possible light, protection for home indus

 MT. w. Howard White contributes to the
 Railroad Gazette some interesting observa- tions upon the ratio of population to railroad mileage in the United States. Beginning with the year 1850, prior to which time MT
 White considers railroad building as some what abnormal, there has been a very notice able regularity in the decrease of this ratio. The number of inhabitants to each mile of railroad in 1850 was 2,571, while in 1887 this number was only 412; and the decrease has been 30 steady as to admit of represen- tation by a curve which seems to be hyper l bolic in character. There was 8 oonspicu- ous interruption of the curve at the time of the civil war, and another after the panic of i 1873, but it's nature is not materially affected l by these disturbances. Estimating the future increase of population on the basis of the l past. the prolongation of the curve would in- l dieate for 1890 a population of 396 to the l mile of railroad, and the limit of the curve would be approximately reached in 1898, 1 with population per aaile of 32s. It would 1 appear. therefore, that the normal rate of l railroad building for the five years from 1885 to 1890 is about 5000 miles year, and 1 that 1000 miles would be in excess of the l limit indicated by the curve. As there had | been built nearly 21 ,000 miles at the begin | ming of the present year, it is clear that @ I halt must be called soon unless some new factor is to be introduced into the situation.

Can there be an 1 American patriot who saw the priyatisns. dangers and difficulties experienced for the want of proper means of defence during the l last war who would be willing again to haz- ara the safety of our country if embroilod: or to rest 1t for defence on the precarious means or national resource to be derived from com- merce in state of war with maritime power who might destroy that commerce and prevent us obtaining the means of defence. ans thereby subdue us. hope there is not; ana Ii there Is, am sure he does not desire I to enjoy the blessings of freedom.
 Heaven smiled on and gave us liberty and 11noependence; that same providence has blessed us with the means of national inde- pendence and national defense. If we omit and refuse to use the gifts which he has ep- tended to us we deserve not the continuation of his blessings. He has filled our mountains and our plains with minerals, with lead and with copper, and given us climate and soil for the growing of hemp and wooIs These being the grand materials of our national defense they ought to have extended to them adequate and fair protection that our own manufacturers and laborers may be placed on fair competition with those of Europe and that we may have within our country a sup ply Of those leading and important materials

I am one of those who don't believe national debt IS national blessing. will ask What is the real situation of the agricultur. lst! Where has the American farmer a mar- ket for his surplus products? Except for cot ion he has neither foreign nor home market. Does not this clearly indicate when there is no market either at home or abroad that there is too much labor employed in agricul- ture, and that the channels for labor should be multiplied? Common sense points out at once the remedy, namely: Draw from agri- culture this superintendent labor, employ it Tn mechanism and manufactories, thereby creating nome market for your breadstuffs, and Distributing labor to the most profitable account; and benefits to the country will re- suit. Take from agriculture in the United States 6OO, ,0O0 men and women and children, and you will at once give home market for your breadstuffs more than all Europe fur nishes us. In short, sir, we have been too long subject to the policy of the British mer- chant. It is time we should become little more Amerieanized, and instead of feeding the paupers and laborers of England feed our own; or else in short time by contiuu- ing our present policy we shall all be render

URlucky Straw Eafsies-Rowa a Gentle. man Ts Made.
 One of the annual festivals in Corea is
 most observed by the women, writes San Francisco Chronicle correspondent. Little l straw effgies are made to resemble the hu. man form, cash is fastened on for either eye, and these are thrown into the streets, and the person who carries them away takes
 to himself the disease or trouble that has
 been aff1icting the body of the former owner. But men who are thirsty for a drink of wine
 do not hesitate to steal the cash from the
 eyes of these eniges.
 Usually jaunt up the south mountain
 will be rewarded by 6 display of native
 archery. Several long ways have been made
 on level stretches of the mountain side.
 These ways are constructed with back and protecting sides. The target ig fixed at the back against the bank, and little squads of men with strong horn bows assemble here to practice for the coming examination. The people are divided into two great classes, the gentry and the common people. From the former the officials are taken on merit, while real worth may secure an entrance into
 gentle life for 8 commoner. These exami-
 nations are of two kinds; one in poetry ad- mits to civil service, the other in archery ad-
 mits to military rank For centuries the
 Coreans have used guns and gunpowder, but
 in the tests of military competence they use
 the old bows arrows, and do some very good work at 200 yards.
 It is very desirable to be gentleman and enterprising members of the common classes and continually striving for this end. The examination itself is 8 most picturesque sight. It is held in large inclosare at the rear of the palace grounds proper. Here on large raised stone platform the King sits under a canopy with his officials The con- testants display their power upon the targets prepared, or they squat upon the ground by the thousands and write away industriously. Each writer is provided with an umbrella, stuck into the ground at 8 convenient angle for sheltering him from the sun or rain, while by his side lies his bundle, containing food and writing materials, and his staff, for perchance he has walked many miles to be present on this occasion. The day is a general holidy at the capital, and nearly every house contains one or more of these contestants from the country, with their peculiar brimless hats and little packs upon their backs. In about three days the des cision is announced, and then the streets are made lively with the gay procession of the victorious ones as they parade the public ways, dressed in bright colors, wearing the court robe if sufficiently high rank has been obtained, and riding gayly eaparisoned hor- ses or donkeys, while . band of music pre- cedes, followed by a gayly dressed dancer bearing the diploma, which he fourishes in the air as he pastures in the presence of the crowd.

 Finally this slow-moving administration has notified Lord Saekville that he is no longer an acceptable agent of his government in this country. He will take the hint and go home. He can not, however, take his let ter with him, nor will his going help the cause which his letter did not help. The re- Iations of this administration with the Brit ist government are now we'll understood. As the Tribune puts it: British in policy, Brit- ish in sympathy, British in open indorse- ment, the present administration is not like any other this country has seen. Abraham LiHcoln, loved by Americans, was not idol ized nor styled Ca second Washington" on the other side of the water. No Republican president has ever attained the peculiar pop ularity In England which MT. Cleveland en- joys. Even in old Democratic days Bachau- an and Pierce were not loved In England, though the policy of their party was in a measure approved. Itwas not radical enough to suit British manufacturers, and 1t has been shown that the Mills bill now pending would create far greater change than that made by the tariff of 1S46, for then hostility to protection was not so intense or effective as that which has governed Cleveland's efforts. The Democratic leaders of that time were not obliged to confront strong public senti- ment, as President Cleveland has confronted the convictions of Americans in favor of the policy which has secured to this country an unprecedented prosperity and growth. Mr. Cleveland is regarded with intense admira- tion, not merely because he has yielded to British influence and favored British inter ests at the sacrifice of American rights in the fisheries question, but mainly because. in the face of public sentiment and of most in- structive experience, he has proposed 6 re- turn to an essentially British policy.
 Goodbye, Lord Sackvillea Also, after next Tuesday, good bye, MT. Cleveland.

In reply to question from Boston news paper, the managing editor of the New York Sun gives 1t as his opinion that, while New York State Is very close, ''the chances favo, HarrisOn's carrying it by 1000 plurality" Indiana brewers have issued circulars ex- horting all persons interested in the liquor business to exert themselves for the defeat of Republican candidates for the legislature. The liquor interests and the Prohibition par ty are in full accord on that point.
 Concerning the Sackville letter the Lon- don Saturday Review says that the British minister has supplied missile in the hands of the enemy" This is plain though unintentional admission that the Republican party is the enemy of English free trade.
 There is at least one woman in New York who means to have her rights. She bought "waxed cord" at one of the big dry goods stores the other day, for which she paid one cent. She did not buy anything else, at least at that store. but she ordered the sales woman to have it sent to her home on West Seventy-seoond street.
 Three hundred miles an hour is the pro- posed speed for the electric postal railroad of the future! An experimental line has been erected at Laurel, twenty miles from Balti- more. A compromise between the pneus matic tube and the ordinary railroad carries a miniature train of two cars, solely for mails and light parcels, without any attendance The road has three rails, one above the car for carrying the current, and two below, which carry the cars. The cars are built of sheet iron and are two feet wide and twenty one feet long. Speed will be regulated and power or brakes applied by electricity solely. If the experiment. at Laurel succeeds, it is stated that similar roads will be laid between Baltimore and Washington and elsewhere.
 A report of the secretary of the Church Temperance society in New York shows the extent to which chattel mortgages are held by brewers upon the fixtures of saloons Acs cording to this report Bernheimer & Schmid of the Lion brewery hold chattel mortgages upon the fixtures of 600 saloons, securing in the aggregate $310, ,1s4; George Ehrst & Go. hold mortgages on the fixtures of POS saloons to the amount of $442, 2,663, and IS other brewers, whose names are given, have mort gages putting 100 saloon keepers under ob- ligation to them to the extent of $949, ,939. It is stated that in all 4,710 ohattel mortgages on saloon fixtures, amounting in value to $4, ,959, ,579, have been granted in the last year. The mortgages practically control the action of the saloon keepers, who are thus made financially dependent upon them.
