Bst the Present Tariff an Iniquity-How
It Robs the Poor.
From the Chicago Free Methodist;
"In Righteousness shalt thou be estab'
lished.SS,-1sa, "a; II. This is true Of an
indlvidual-ito 10 true of the church-it is
true Of the state. But righteousness is
thoroughly impartial. 1t knows no res.
pect OF persons. It guards the rights OF
the humblest and poorest with as much
jealousy as it does the rights OF the rich
and powerful. q, ,...;
But where is the righteousness in legisla-
tive enactments that takes m%oneyfrom the
poor to give to the rich? Under our pres
emit tariff, rich mill owners can import logs
from Canada free OF duty. But the poor
man. who wishes to build a house, must
pay for planed clapboards and flooring a
duty Of So q thousand feet! OF course the
only object Of this law is to enable our
wealthy lumbermen to charge two and
Is there any justice in this? 1t is simply
taking, by law, money from one class to
put into the pockets Of another. 1t is
robbery.
Again: The wealthy railroad and tele-
graph Corporations import railroad ties
and telegraph poles free ofduty. The farm
er, who has hard work to make both ends
meet, must pay for rough pine fence boards
q duty OF two dollars a thousand! Is this
righteousness?
Such enactments to favor the rich at the
expense of the common people may be en-
forced by human tribunals. but they will
not stand before the bar of God. 'Shall
the throne OF iniquity have fellowship with
thee, which iramethT mischief by a law?"

LET THE FACTS SPEAK

A big strike is in progress at Mime.
apolis and st. Paul over the reduction OF
wages. Those employees were told last
year that the triumph Of Democracy and
the Mills tariff reduction measure meant
reduction Of wages all over the country,
but the election OF Harrison on a protec-
tive platform meant increased wages and
better times.
At Albany. New York, the employees of
Rathbone, Sard & Co., having saved
American industry by unfolding Blaine
and Randall in their scheme of high
taxes, must now accept 10 per cent. less
wages.
At Newark, New Jersey, 100 men and
boys are rewarded for their fealty to
American industry by a prize of Is per
cent. reduction. Failing at once to ap-
preciate the connection of cause with its
effect, they have ceased work, and some of
them will starve unless they shall
speedily repent and be baptized into rat
W0rkmen.
A colossal strike OF lockout prepares
for the declaration of railroad people.
The engineers and fremen who shouted
for Blaine and his American policy may
now taste deep in the bitter waters of
protection. These engineers and fremen
could have reduced taxes, disrupted mo-

bow DR.. Joseph Garretson Lived.

Cincinnati Enquirer: Ons OF the most
remarkable characters Cincinnet ii ever saw
is dead. 1t was DIR. Joseph Garretson, OF
west Eighth street. For sixty.two years OF
his life he never took a cup Of coffee or a
sip Of tea. For fifty years Of his life he ate
no meat. For twenty.six years OF his life
he never took so much as q pinch OF salt.
He came of English stock, and was born in
that county Of long-lived people. York, Pa,
Feb. 81, 1S0S..d4 His ideas were very SIM
ole, but on the subject Of diet he believed in
q strictly vegetarian diet. Nature, he SID
to say, has supplied this food, and it is
against nature when q man eats meats.
To those who would eat meat, however, he
insisted that it should be boiled. He used
to point to the Indians as proof OF this,
claiming that they were never sick unless
from wounds. He trusted no cooks to pre-
pare his food, but did it himself. When he
went upon q journey be tool his food with
him. Only a few weeks before his death he
was in New York city, going the entire dis
tance with his food. He claimed that ev-
erything greasy was injurious to the human
system, and Of all things horrible was a
piece OF meat fried. Dyspepsia and all the
ghosts and nightmares of indigestion he at
tributed to frying. His only drink during
bis long life was water, or sometimes q lem
onade. He was continually experimenting
on the subject of diet, and attributed his
long life entirely to his diet and habits.

nopoly and shattered privileges in Amer

they cat ballots for the protection Of
taxes. wages and home industry" The
taxes were fortunately preserved.
In reviewing these facts, the Chicago
Herald" asks, how long must the laborer
save his wages at the ballot-box. and
rejoice in a reduction and a strike after
election :? When will he discover the
cheat ? What engineer who last fall
prated about high wages does not know
that wages are falling, and must fall ?
The logic of the situation is against bet
ter times. Restricted trade means less
business, and less business means less
work and lower wages. High tariff ne
cessarily restricts commerce, and the
evils that result will become more and
more apparent.

Says the Great Falls Tribune: The

dropping spirits thus: IF the city cleo
tiOns are guns of the fall campaign, the
Republicans have secured three out Of

iican majority was cut down from 4O1 to
a beggarly IS, although a bigger vote
was cast than in 1883. In Great Falls
the contest was non-partisan. The
Mayor-elect. DR.. Fairfield, is Republican,
but he owes his election to Democratic
votes. The other three oficers-City At

Gallatin county at large will more than
offset her Republican vote. Such gums"
are signals of Republican distress.

The sensation did not last long, and he
went to Paris and other capitals for aid;
but the cause Of Hungary was forgotten In
the Crimean wal and other excitements.
Austria lost her Italian provinces by the
war Of 1859 and had to come to terms
with Hungary. General amnesty was
declared and the Hungarian diets powers
restored; the two nations became q as
to the crown and two as to legislation,
and there was no more cause for agita-

His countryman loyalty supported the
new system, but maintained their res

seven years he has been an Italian, prac-
tically. and his two sons are business
men in Turin.

LOUIS KOSSUTH.

The information that Louis Kossuth at
the age of 81 is slowly dying of exhaus-
tion rOuses a thousand curious remin-
iscences in the minds of old readers of
American papers; for there was a season
when the name a.. Ossuth," figured in ten
thousand columns, blazed in flaming
colors on many brands of goods, gave
title to popular organizations and even
to hats and other articles Of apparel.
No foreigner since Lafayette had excited
such enthusiasm in the United States.
He returned to Europe and the reaction
came; 1t was charged that he had col
lected money for Hungary and used it
himself. This SANDER died, and he fell
into the ranks of the many thousand for
gotten unfortunates. Hungary was rec
onciled to Austria, the Pan-Slavic party
took control, and Kossuth, in disgust and
despair, retired to Turin. Italy, where he
has lived for twenty-seven years.
Lajos Nouis) Kossuth, was born April
q, 1902, and his blood was chiefly Slavic,
despite the fact that his family adhered
to the Magyar party, and he eventually
became its leader. The union between
Austria and Hungary was originally an
equal one, free as it is now, and there
were no more loyal subjects than those
Hungarians who supported the throne Of
Maria Theresa; but in time all the inter-
ests Of the eastern section were sacrificed
for those of Austria and the Italian prov
inces. Then the agitation for reform be-
gan, and Kossuth, who was one of the
greatest scholars of his time, became a
leader. He spoke and wrote French,
Magyar, Italian, and German with flu
ency, and wa versed in Latin, then the
legal language Of Hungary. During his
captivity he leafned-Eaglish from a
Bible and dictionary, and was able to
make q public address in that tongue on
landing at Southampton.
