Be Good to Yourself.

Do you say the world is selfish enough
already, and needs no such advice as
this? Granted; still ifpeop'e are selfish,
WHY not tell them how to be so to some
purpose? Many people are ignorant of
the good things to be had, unskilful in
avoiding annoyances, and in fact do not
know how to be good to themselves.
At home, we can shun discomfort to a
great extent, because we know our sur
roundings we'll, but the inexperienced
traveller has many trials, which he really
need not have had. When you resolve
to take journey, take a little fore
thought about your route inquire about
the accommodations, the equipment,
the time record, safety, and the treat
ment travellers receive. In al these
points "The Burlington" excels, and to
be sure of it, buy your tickets over that
line going east, north, south or west.

A Winters Tale,

1t is in this season that the apprecia-
tive estimate home at it's true value
when the cosy sitting room and cheer
full hearth offer so many inducements in
the way of comforts to the man who has
bravea the cold. Truly, there is no
place more inviting than CHEEKY home
on winters night, when fellow likes
to put on smoking jacket and slippers
and enjoy life. Every man appreciates
comfort, especially when travelling, and
he can always get it by taking the Saint
Paul & Duluth-the Duluth Short Line
which is the best route between the
Twin Cities, Duluth, West Superior,
Saltwater, and other points. A. B.

The most horriic occurrence which
has befallen the Twin Cities in
years was the burning of the
Tribune building in Minneapolis, last
Saturday night, not so much on account
of the loss of property but on account of
the loss of seven valuabl- lives thereby,
The terrible calamity has filed every
breast with sorrow. The newspapers of
st. Paul with characteristic generosity
rendered the use of their plants 10 pa
pers burned out, and extended their
sympathy in practical manner. The
details of the fire have been given in
the dailies everywhere and the pro-
foundest sympathy is felt by the entire
newspaper fraternity in which The AP-
PEAL humbly joins. III j. -'=::..''

the bride aud Mr.. William Robertson,
followed by the bride on the arm of her
elder brother, MIR. Frank j.. Robertson
marched slowly up the aisle. Having
arranged themselves at the altar, the
beautiful Episcopal ceremoney was per-
formed by the Rey. w. G. Pope, and the
bridal party fled slowly out of the
'church,while the organ pealed forth as
jubilate. The bride wore a long veil and
was handsomely arrayed in a cream
China silk en- train, with hand painted
front and train. Miss Hattie Gibbs, the

GOV. GoRDoN's SPEECH.

Gov. Go,don of Georgia was royalty
received by the citizens of Chicago, He
made a speech at Central Music Hall
and about half of it was concerning the
Colored people. Many ofhis statements
are fabrieations. For instance, he said
that the "war emaneipated the Coloref1
people from worthless, useless, barba-
Iiaps to q frea American citizene.,, TIE
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1889-12-07

frst part of the statement is malicious
talsehood and unworthy of the man. If
the Colored people were useless why
did Gordon and thousands ofother South-
ern shareholders fight so hard to keep
possession of these worthless beings?
At the beginning of tho arsColoreid
men in good condition were worth 81 500
in gold. They must have been of some
value or they would not have been
quoted SO high. ,>.s@t3 !
Gov. Gordon said, "When all the facts
are known, this country will not only
@pprove, but Christendom will applaud
the treatment by the white man of the
Colored people since the war" The
facts in the case are known; but the
North can not, and never will, approve
the outrageous treatment the Colored

FREE TRADE MEANS HARD TIMES.

FREE TRADE MEANS HARD TIMES.
It goes without dispute that the peo-
pie of the United States-farmers, me-
chanics, laborers, and other workers
are vastly better off than those in SINH
lar occupations in other lands, and con-
sequently are the best customers in the
werld. This is why they are so cease
lessly importuned to,divide their trade
with foreigners, who are unable to else
where find buyers for all they wish to
sell, and to aid them in getting the de-
sired hold upon our trade, is the aim of
free traders now working und er the
guise of "tariff REFORM"
There would be very few workers for
free trade if it was not expected thereby
to increase the sale of foreign products
in this.country; hence the lively interest
of foreign manufacturers, and the i'm
porters and distributors of foreign prod
ucts. Before consenting to let them
have their way, voters will do we'll to
carefully count the, cost of such conces-
sion. In the first place, we have no
more work than will keep our own peo-
pie occupied, after allowing them time
for necessary recreation. Increased
use of goods and wares made in other
eoun tries, will necessarily diminish pur.
chase of similar articles made in this
country and to the extent deprive some
of our people of their present employ
mont. A new business seems likely to
open to<engage those thus crowded out
Of enterprises now established, leaving
out of the ocoount the other thousands
crowding for employment as the result
of our steadily augmenting population,
rs legislation operating to break down
existing enterprises will tend to dis
courage attempts at establishing new
ones.
The few lines of domestic business not
killed outright, under policy of free
foreign trade could not long remain
profitable to those now controlling
them. They would soon become so
crowded that neither proprietors nor
employees could get from them more
than scanty living. AS the margin of
profit for the one is narrowed, the ten
ure of employment for the other be-
comes more uncertain; and when the
free traders millennium is ushered In it
will find few in condition to share in its
promised blessings. To the most of
men, to be out of work is to be out of
money-a condition in which it makes;
but little difference how cheap may be
the prices of articles beyond their reach.
Df all men these should be the last to
aid in fastening upon the country q
policy dictated by foreigners who seek to
impair its existing prosperity, by taking
from the pockets of the working people
n portion of the wages they now receive,
to pay for competing labor performed
across the sea.
