WHAT THE TARIFF DOES.

In 1850 the manufacturers of the
United States amounted to 81, ITO,
100000, employing $4,000 hands;
average gross product ofeach 81, los;
average wages of operatives, 1925
each per year. In 1880 there were
2,738,OOO operatives employed in all
branches of manufacturing in this
country, their wages aggregating
$99O,OO0,OOO per year, supporting
and educating more than one-fourth
the entire population. The average
of wages increased $1O5 per year.
Now the Democracy wishes to de-
stroy this grand system Of the pro.
lection of American labor. Is il
not strange that some laboring mer
and farmers are voting at each cleo
ton to destroy this, their best friend
Their action is as silly as the man
who killed the hen that laid ;
golden egg each day.

A UNION OF STRENGTH.

IT is given out by some of the
daily papers that the Farmers ALI
ance, and Knights ofLabor, will
coolece on some practical basis, and
in the event should be accomplished
there is probability ola new party
organization, that the farmer and
laboring man will adjust the tariff
and the carrying trade to suit them
selves. There is now claimed for
the former 100000 ola member
ship and for the X. OIL. 100000.
This would make formidable party
in controlling the question, who
shall be the President of the United
States, and in the rural districts,
who shall be elected to the Congress
of the United States, and who shall
make the laws of the states, and be
our Supreme Judges? Evidently a
great revolution must sooner or later
take place. If the great interests Of
the country, can be considered, hon
estly and fully by great balance Of
power like the union of these classes
would be, when a practical cooless-
ing takes place, the TINES would
not object, but would say, so let it
be done, as the agricultural and Ia
boring interests are Of more general
Importance than any other that
could be named, as upon these two
classes, depend the interests of all
the people. 1.-THE farmer and labor
er will see to it, that those who are
exalted to the chief places, shall be
conservative, qualified men, good
must result from the movement
In this kind Of action they not only
receive their own inherent strength
but outside Of the organization will
be found the sympathy Of all good
men, when such high toned conser.
vative course is adapted.

state in the Union; yet men, like
the editor of the Issue, calling them
selves temperance men will directly
antagonize the Republican party
and thereby make Democratic sue
cess possible.
1t has very much the appearance
of insincerity and hypocrisy when
we see these men preaching temper
ance, and praying for temperance,
and all the whild adopting such
methods as to put whisky-loving
Democrats in power.
The Republican party is ever
working for temperance, morality
and the general good and prosperity
of the people. and if all those who
profess to favor these things would
join heart and soul in the Republic
can endeavor to secure them, there
would not only be one of the grand
est temperance organizations in the
World, bnt party as we'll as that
would never know cefeat.

PAN-AMERlcAN CONGRESS.

THE TINES has said but little
about this body which has recently
been in session at Washington City
the members of which, have visit
ed the East, West, North andSouth
of this part Of the Western Cont
nent. The readers may ask, who
goes to make up this Congress ? the
answer is representatives from all
the Governments of the Western
Continent. Pan-American means
representatives from all the three
Americas in friendly gathering for
the greatest good to all. These rep
resentatives are intent on perfecting
plan by which the American gov
ernments can live without war.
The plan of this Congress has been
before the three Americas since the
induction of Garfield into the Presi-
dental chair, when it was dubbed
the American poliby. On the death
of Garfield, Mr.. Blaine, his secretary
was in sympathy with the movement
had to retire, and his and Garfeld's
successors, in Arthur, Cleveland
and their secretaries did not renew
the proposition to Central and South
America, so that nothing further
looking in this direction, was at.
tempted, until President Harrison
with Mr.. Blaine, was installed into
office and now something tangible
has been done. A Congress met il
Capital of this Nation and plans
have been discussed and doubtless
parties will follow so that great ant
lasting benefit will without doubt re
suit. No greater reform in the gov
eminent of Nations, could be mad
than that of settling all ditficultie
by peaceful conference, insted o
WARMTH its financial burdens an,
its bloody battles. The delegate
from the two Americas, represent {
territory of twelve million squar
miles and 100000 ofpeople, an
while these representatives canno
bind their governments, yet the re
suits of their future peaceful rela
tons. This is a new era, begotte
by Christian men, which is to rel
resent christian ways of settling ma
tional troubles.

ment could make the nomination
now he would not be renOminated.
But it must be remembered that as
yet General Harrison has not writ
ten a message or shaped policy of
administration beyond keeping the
machinery of government in run
ming order. In the great political
movements appointments count
for less than policies. The men
who vote care less about who fill
the offices than about good times,
reduced taxation, peace with the
world and comfort at the fire-side.
When the Administration has de.
clarei its financial policy, when
that policy has been tried, when its
results are known and felt, the
question asked by the correspon-
dent will not require an answer

BOsTONs' FIRE.


1872. on Last Thursday.
Thursdays conflagration ragged
for six hours, and burned over two
acres of territory covered by mag
nificent structures and entailed a |
loss now estimated at $1O,OOO,O00.
The fire was discovered by a let
ter carrier who noticed flames burs-
ting from the top of Browns build
ing, in which it originated. The
letter carrier notified the nearest
police officer who rung in the first
alarm. As soon as Chief Weber,
of the protective department arriv-
ed it became apparent that a long,
hard fight was before the depart
ment, and a general alarm was sent
out, and this was soon followed by
calls upon neighboring cities and
towns for assistance. Flames were
soon pouring from all the windows
ind roof of the Brown Dnrrell build
ing. At S:45 they had spread to the
shoe and leather exchange building,
gnother large granite structure, ad-
joining Brown Durrell 4 Co, on Bed
ford street. From both buildings
the flames swept in great masses
across Bedford st. to the opposite
corner, thence across Kingston,
along Bedford to Chauncy, where it
was stopped in the store of Farley
Harvey & Co., the upper stories Of
which were burned. The stores
along Chauncy street toward Sum.

side of Bedford street the flames

ing owned by F. L. Ames and occu-
pied by Taylor Bros, and this was
consumed. The great granite
building known as Nevin's Block,
at the corner of Chauncy street, was
the next victim for the flames, and
the entire block clear around Rowe
Place was consumed. Crossing
Chauncy street the fire soon had
good head of all the stores which
are enclosed in Exeter Place, the
small street running from Karriso6
avenue to Chauncy street. Here
the fireman got control. At Rowe
Place the fire was partially checked
from going toward Essex street,
but quickly moved toward the op.
posite side to the immense Allen L
Larrabe building, occupying the
square between Bedford street Har.
risOn avenue extension and Exeter
place, at which point their further
progress was checked.
Loss on buildings destroyed as
per assessors valuation, about $500,
600; estimated damages to other
buildings not destroyed. $685. 900.
