We find a great deal of fault with
the newspapers. Perhaps by our
own lndlstinctness we are reported
as saying just what we did not
say, and there is a regular riot of
commas and semicolons and per-
iods, and we get used to talking
about the laundering printing
press. Or sometimes we take up
a paper full of social scandals and
divorce cases, and we talk about
that filthy, scurrilous press, but I
could preach a whole sermon on
the everlasting blessings of a good
newspaper. A good newspaper is
the grandest temporal blessing
that God has given the people of
this century.
''In the first place all the people
read the newspapers and the news
papers furnish the greater proper
ton of the reading TO the people
They don't read books. The old
people look for the deaths, the
young look for the marriages, the
business men read the business
and financial columns, and those
who are unemployed read the
want ads Great Libraries make
few intelligent men and women,
but newspapers lift the nation into
sunlight.
"My idea of a good newspaper
is a mirror of life itself. Some
people complain because the evil
Of the world is reported as we'll as
the good. The evil must be report
ed as well as the good, or how will
we know what to guard against,
or what to reform There is a
chance for discrimination as to
how much space shall be given to
reports of such things as prize
fights, but the newspaper that
merely presents the fair and the
beautiful side of life is misrepres-
entation. That family is best
qualified for the duties of life who
have told to them not only what
good there is in the world, but
what evil there is in the world,
and is told to select the good and
reject the evil. minneapolis Tri-

were imported to the value of
over S44,oOO,Ooo. To this sum
may be added the items of hemp
and flax amounting to SII, 100000
and the more than $780, 900
worth of fruits on which duty was
paid. Every dollar exacted from
foreigners, for the privilege of sell
ing these articles in competition
with the products of American
fields, served as protection to the
producers of similar domestic
products.
The free trade policy of
England has reduced the number
of her farms, as we'll as the profit
from those remaining under tillage
and, as similar results will surely
follow its application in this coun-
try, the farmer should be the last
man to vote for a change in that
direction.

Talmadge on Newspapers.

Every newspaper reporter in
New York is my personal friend.
I have been betrayed by about
every class of men in the world,
but never by newspaper man,
and I believe there is a spirit of
fairness abroad in the newspapers
that is hardly to be found any
where else. There is no man,
however poor, if he has been done
an injustice, that cannot get him
self set right by the newspaper.

In speaking of Col. Watrous'
appointment to the office of col
lector in Milwaukee the Journal
comments as follows: The Wis
consin man who does not know
Col. ]. A. Watrous must have
spent most Of his life up a tree or
down a well, for the genial colonel
has generally been on deck some
where in the neighborhood of
public gatherings and at most
other sports in the state. He has
amilitary record as long as mans
arm, and his political gospel con-
sists of four words: "Vote the
republican ticket" AS a soldier
he belonged to the Sixth Wisconsin
Iron brigade, and enlisted in Capt.
Bragg's company. He was sue
cessively private, sergeant, ser
geant-major, FIRST lieutenant and
captain. being taken prisoner
while holding the latter commission
Since the war he was for eight
years a colonel in the National
guard and a brigadier general for
three years, but the boys have got
so used to calling him colonel that
they can't stop it, you know, and
his higher title goes unnoticed
Col. Watrous was born in New
York, September 6, 1910, and was
brought to Wisconsin by his
parents four years later. He
received his education princip ally
in the public schools, and began
to teach when 10 years old. In
April, 1861, he was one of the
proprietors of The Appleton Ores
cent, and promptly laid down his
stick to take up a musket. June
Is, 1866, he came back to Wiscon
sin, and at once bought an interest
in The Black River Falls Banner
running the paper until 1869, when
he went to Fond du Lac, and re-
NAMED until 1880, when he came
to Milwaukee, and has ever since
been identified with The Sunday
Telegraph. In 1867, herepresent-
ed Clark and Jackson counties in
the assembly, and in 1870, he ran
for congress and was defeated in
the Fond du Lac district. Gov
Rusk appointed him state pension
agent in 1885, and he served until
the office was consolidated with
that of adjutant general by the
last legislature.

Secretary Noble, who has
shown great liking for making
his Bureau chiefs feel the weight
of his authority now knows how
it is himself. He caused it to be
generally understood that every
employee of the Pension office,
whose pension had been re-rated
under this administration, would
be dismissed. This did not chime
in with what the President thought
was justice, and he intimated to
the Secretary that these men
should not be dismissed unless
cause could be shown in every
instance. If any wrong-doing is
found out against one of these
employees, he should be dis
charged at once, but the same
chance should be given them that
the courts give men charged with
crime-that of proving their limo
cence. This little check will
probably have good effect on
Secetary Noble who is very able
man, but he has been suffering
somewhat from the very common
official disorder known as "big
head"

Farmers Should Favor Protection.

The attorneys for free foreign
trade are persistent in their appeals
to the farmer. Protesting the ut
most solicitude for his welfare,
they seek to mislead him into the
support of policy that will newt
ly impair the purchasing ability of
those who are now his chief Gus
toners. Ninety-hve per cent of
all the products of American
farms are now consumed by the
American people. A large major
ity of these would be unable to
buy in quantity and quality as
they now buy were it not for the
wages received for labor in indus
tries which, under free trade,
would be divided if not altogether
given over to people fed and
clothed from the products of for
eign fields.
In return for his aid in over
turning the existing business
arrangements the farmer is prom
ised lower prices for what he has
to buy, and is asked to believe
that foreign customers will be
found to take the place of those he
may lose nearer home. The
fallacy Of such teaching, as we'll
as the hollowness of the promise,
lies in the assumption that the
farmers success is any less Deepen
dent upon a general prosperity
than that of his fellow men in
other callings. Farming is but
one Of the essentials to a complete
national economy, and a farmer
can no more make his business
profitable in the absence of good
customers, than can the merchant
or manufacturer. And his custo-
mers must necessarily be found
outside Of those who are engaged
in agriculture. Without steady
work and fair wages for laborers,
mechanics, clerks, and the army
of working people who now find
it more for their interest to buy
than to produce the varied pro-
ducts of the soil they consume,
the farmer would be compelled to
confine his efforts to the products
that can be shipped abroad.
Equally unreliable is the free
traders contention that the farmer
gets no benefit from the existing
tariff. During the year ended
June 50, 1889, dutiable field prod
ucts, such as live animals, bread
stuffs, milk, butter, cheese, hay,
hops, tobacco, vegetables, wool,
