flowers rollickiug in the grassy fields, and
sitting by the sesshore, making little rivers
in the sand On the page between June and
July there is picture of milestone almost
hidden by the flowers, but on which the in
scrptlon Half Way can be seen. Through
out the Calendar they are dressed in costumes
appropriate to the different months of the
year. In April they take refuge from the
showers meath umbrellas; in May they fall
asleep among the daisies in the field as they
murmur:

Politics in the Pulpit

We quote the following chunk of wis
dom from a Presbyterian journal, The
Interior, and we respectfully submit it to
those who are anxious on the point re-
ferred to:
THE time is near at hand, if it is not
already upon US, when thousands Of men
who never attend church, and never mani
fest at other times any zeal for religion,
will be exercised in their minds lest minis
tiers of the gospel should injuro their
reputation and the cause they represent
by preaching politics. What the word
politics means these Jealous friends of
religion and the ministry are generally
unable to state very clearly when called
upon for definition. The nearest they
can come to it is that it is something CD.
posed to their own opinions. The real
truth about this matter seems to be that
in these especially social, civil and
religious matters so overlap and inter,
penetrate each other that it often seems
impossible to discuss the latter as the pul.
pit probably should do if it does its whole
duty, without trenching more or less upon
one or both of the former. To an intelli.
gent reader of the New Testament it does
not appear altogether certain that the
Savior himself did not sometimes SHOCK
his enemies by more than touching social
and political questions, and when we turr
back to the Old Testament there can be
no doubt as to what the old prophets did.
Keeping all these things in view, may VIC
not conclude to leave the whole matter te
the conscientious convictions of duty en-.
tertained by every minister of the gospel?

THE TARIFF BUGABOO.
What Four Presidents Have Said-Were

FROM PRESIDENT GRANTS MESSAGE OF
1877

FROM PRESIDENT GRANTS MESSAGE OF
1875.
l would mention those articles which
enter into manufactures of all sorts All
duty paid on such articles goes direct to
the cost of the article when manufactured
here, and must be paid for by the con-
sumner. These duties not only come from
the consumers at home, but act as pro-
lection to foreign manufacturers in our
own and distant markets.
FROM PRESIDENT ARTHURs MESSAGE OF
1882.
The present tariff system is in many re-
spects unjust. 1t makes unequal distri-
button, both of it's burdens and its bene-
fits. Without entering into
minute details, which, under present cir
cumstances, is quite unnecessary, | re-
commend an enlargement of the free list
so as to include within it the numerous
articles which yield inconsiderable reve-
nue., a simplifcation Of the complex and
inconsistent schedule of duties upon GER
tain manufactures, particularly those of
cotton, iron and steel, and a substantial
reduction of the duties upon sugar. mo-
lasses, silk, wool and wooden goods.
FROM PR EsIDENT ARTHUR's MESSAGE OF
1884
The healthful enlargement of our trade
with Europe, Asia and Africa should be
sought by reducing tariff burdens on such
OF their wares as neither one nor the other
American states are fitted to produce,
and thus enable ourselves to obtain in re-
turn better market for our supplies of
food, of raw materials and of the manu-
features of which we excel.
FROM PRESIDENT CLEvELAND'S MESSAGE
OF 1887.
The taxation of luxuries presents no
features of hardship, but the necessaries
of life used and consumed by all the peo-
pie, the duty on which adds to the cost
of living in every house, should be
greatly cheapened. Thus our
people might have the opportunity Of ex-
tending their sales beyond the limits of
home consumption, saving them from the
depression, interruption in business and
loss caused by glutted domestic market,
and affording their employees more GER
tain and steady labor, with the resulting
quiet and contentment.
PRESIDENT GARFIELDS SPEECH IN THE
HOUSE IN 1878
l believe that we ought to seek that
point of stable equilibrium somewhere
between a prohibitory tariff on the one
hand and tariff that gives no protection
on the other, What S that point ofstable
equilibrium? In my Judgment it is this:
rate so high that foreign producers can
not flood our markets and break down our
home manufacturers, but not so high as
to keep them altogether out, enabling
our manufacturers to combine and
raise the prices, nor so high as
to stimulate an unhealthy growth Of
manufactures. In other words, l would
have the duty SO adjusted that every great
American industry can fairly live and
make fair profits; and yet SO low that if
our manufacturers attempted to put
prices unreasonably the competition from
abroad would come in and bring down
prices to fair rate

What st. Louis Women Say About Demo

delegates began to pour into this city to

"Other dram shops gloat over proper
tional gains, but have not reported the
amount.

in the Democratic party. Democrats all
over the Union are poor in comparison
with Republicans, yet Democratic dele

A Million for Fisk.

"a million for Fisk" Albert Griffin
was the originator of the above cry,
although he would be the last man to
claim it. Before the Republican conven-
ton he wrote: Il know well the temper
snce element in the various parties, and
do not hesitate TO say, that, if artful
dodgers should be allowed to frame the
next Republican platform, and conduct
the campaign, they would cost the party
at least million votes and prolonged de-
morallzation, as well as crushing defeat"
The platform was framed by "artful
dodgers, and "artful dodgers" Ike Clark
son and Dudley are conducting, the cam
paign. Accordingly, the Prohibition party
is justified in expecting at least mil
lion votes" from the Republican party
alone, according to Albert Griffin, to say
nothing of the vote received from the
Democratic party.-Lever

A REPUBLICAN SIDE SHOW.
Liquor Men to Hold a Convention in Fa-
vor of Temperance and Morality.

VOr OF temperance and MORALITY.
The Wine and Spirit Traders Society
of New York held q meeting recently, at
which most of the representative whole
sale liquor dealers were present. to make
arrangements for the convention of the
National Protective Association of Whole
sale Wine and Spirit Dealers, which will
be held at Chickering hall in New York
Sept. II, ~ and 13.
Charles Mex Leoser, in an interview,
said: 1.-THE object of the convention is to
bring all the wholesale liquor dealers of
the country together, to lay before the
convention the objects of the association
and the way in which the liquor business
should be conducted They will adopt a
platform of principles w ich in their
opinion, will be best adapted to secure
the best methods for controlling the
trade. Their opinion is that if their views
are adopted they will do more to advance
the cause of true temperance among the
people than the views of the Prohibition
lists. They will propose a general form of
license law for all the states that will con-
troll the traffic in the best way in which it
can be done, and they think that their ex-
perience will be of more value in achiev-
ing this end than the views of clergymen
and people who have had no experience in
the matter.
1.-THE object of the whole convention is
to give the people of the United States a
very clear idea of the intentions and mo-
tives of the wine and spirit trade. They
believe themselves to be the very best ex-
ponents of true temperance. They feel
and know that it is impossible to prevent
the consumption Of spirituous beverages
by law. They mean to propose certain
schemes of legislation which they think
will go as far as anything can go toward
achieving the end that is desired by every
body-that is, moderation in all things"

The question Of free trade or protection
may fool some Prohibitionists for awhile,
but they are used to bugaboos of that
kind. The older men among them re-
member that when the anti slavery ques-
ton was being pushed to the front the
leaders of the Wing party trotted out
protection free trade" in order to head
Off the movement then; and whenever the
Republican party is sorely pressed it
either waves the bloody shirt or cries
free trade. The Prohibition party is in
favor of protection for protection only; it
believes in the reduction of the tariff as
rapidly as it can be reduced without low
ering the wages of American worlIingmen
or without preventing American manu-
facturers from competing successfully
with their rivals across the sea. But this
question will be so thoroughly discussed
between now and November next that We
expect no loss of votes from this cause

ton party; it means to protect the homes,
