TWO OF A KIND.

In his able speech at Cincinnati SEN
atOr Sherman showed that France, Ger
many, Belgium, Russia, Italy and other
European governments, as well as Can
ada, had followed the United States in
adopting protective tariff. He used the
word followed because that is the
word which properly represents the his
torical fact. When. in 1861, our Congress
passed the Morrill, tariff bill, which was
a protective measure, the whole COM
mercial world was under purely revenue
tariffs OF CONNER cial treaties based upon
the doctrine of free trade. Since that
time the statesmen of Europe have
watched the experiment of protection in
this country and have witnessed u
marvellous progress under ven laws
based upon that doctrine. Consequently,
they have become converts to the Amer
icau doctrine. When Bismarck pre-
scented his protective. tariff meas
IRE in the German Legislature,
he pointed out the wonderful progress
made by this country and attributed it
to protection. Other European nations
have done the same thing, and even
Canada, a British dependency, has been
permitted to pass a protective tariff SO
nearly patterned after ours that our
schedules are borrowed.
AT the present time, as Senator Sher-
man said, only one nation and one party
in another favor the policy of free
trade. That nation is Great Britain and
that party is the Democratic party of
the United States, where protection has
indicated the wisdom of the policy.
Here is what may be called 1.-TWO of a
kind" and a beautiful pair it is-the
manufacturers and merchants of Eng
land, who court ours as the best market
in the world, and hope to secur it
through the adoption of the free-trade
heresy in this country, and the Demo-
cratic party in this country, which is
fighting to surrender our markets to the
hungry competitors over the water.
Let this point be emphasized: the only
advocates of free trade, to-day, are the
free-trade manufacturers of Great Brit
ain and the free-trade Democracy of the
United States, which owes its prosper
ity to protection.
If only that small section Of the Dem
ocratic party represented by such Anglo
maniac organs as the New York Times
and the New York Evening Post were
the advocates of the British policy, it
would be different; but nearly every
Democratic newspaper in the land vies
with its associates in d~enouncing pro-
lection, while every crossroads Demo-
cratic organ parrots the heresies inn
ported to break down the industries of
! this country.

lage, he was taken sick and died in two
days. The circumstances of his death
gave rise to rumors of poison, which
found expression and Endorsement In
the leading papers of Rome. The ru-
mors still prevail, though they have not
been confirmed, and probably cannot
be. 1t is said the circumstances of the
Cardinals death have been carefully
concealed and some written notes which
he made in his last hours destroyed. A
physician of the Vatican hurried to his
bedside and made an autopsy OF the
deceased cardinal, which has been pub
lished, but it is vaguely. worded, and
has not put a stop to the rumors OF al
layed the suspicious which gave rise to
them. They hint that Schiaffino was put
out of the way at the instance Of the
irreconcilable party, in order to advance
the cause and improve the pros
poets of an assertion of temporal
power by the Pope. 1t is some
what remarkable, to say the least, that
almost simultaneous with the announce
ment of Cardinal Schiafino's death
came one that the Pope had appointed
to high and important positions W.
prelates noted for their open hostility to
the Italian government and their ardent
advocacy of the temporal claims of the
Pope. At the same time it is officially
announced that at the next consistory
Father Massimo, a leading Jesuit, will
be made cardinal. Being a Jesuit, he is
an irreconcilable and an active leader
among those who favor the assertion of
temporal power. 1t is thus apparent
that whether the death of Cardinal
Schiafino was brought about by the
irrecOncilables or not, it has Injured di-
rectly to their political advantage, and
has been followed by appointments by
the Pope which indicate that he has
passed completely under their influence.
Leo XIII is now old and feeble. For
the last two or three years he has been
constantly chatting and protesting
against the curtailment of mis- %ecclesi-
astlcal dignity and the limitations put
upon his power by the civil authorities.
Cardinal Schiaffino, a patriot al well as
priest, and one who recognized the
limitations of power between the church
and the state, was the last trusted adj
wiser of the Pope who was determined
in his opposition to the assertion of the
temporal power dogma. His sudden
death, under the mysterious circum-
stances indicated, may be followed by
the complete surrender of the Pope to
the influence of the irreconcilables and
the early proclamation of temporal power
as an article of the Catholic faith.

Hon. WARNER MILLER addressed q

city a few nights ago, and, after con-

party, if there are those who are displeased
over what is called the distribution of the
spoils. we certainly have none such here.
III this administration goes on fairly, as it
the campaign, il certainly will continue to
hold the approval of the majority.
There is nothing in this to indicate
that the ex-senator is fomenting any
soreness in the Republican party, OF
feeling any himself.
