THAT nFpeNns

Last year, following the lead Of Mrs.
Mona Card, we were all hotly discussing
the question of ''Is marriage failure, .
with a strong inclination to the opinion
that II was failure, and dismal and un-
iversal failure at that.
Within the year there have been evil
dences of strong revulsion of feeling
and Of more optimistic views. 1t would
be difficult Of course to give the causes of
the change In detail Statistics bearing
ON this subject are meager and unsatis-
factory. They relate to good cooking
and other household economies, TO do.
nestle disorders and to the number
Of times fashion dictates changes in bon
nets. They should contain a list Of
clubs aud the number Of meetings each
club has week Any statistician Il
aware Of the uncertain quantity, the
value OF which cannot be determined, In
statistics Of this nature. The elements
and emotions which tend to happiness or
to misery in the married state are mixed,
various and often inexplicsble. There Is
no royal road to happiness. so well defined
by the blazoned signs of pilgrims who
have travelled there before, that a
heart sore emigrant may find 1t
with unerring precision. There is no ab
solutely certain route to misery even,
though many seem to rush madly In
search Of it. The whole subject is hid
den in the misty clouds of an undis-
covered country to each person who lifts
his expectant eyes and tries to get a
glimpse into 'the beyond" There is
one thing certain, however, Wisdom will
will likely improve every situation in
life, and Charity can throw its sweet and
ample mantle over all the faults and
frailities that human nature falls prey to.
Among the most notable examples that
a marriage wisely contracted and low
ingly maintained true marriage, not a
paroxysm Of PASSIONS not failure has
been brought to public notice by the
speech Of Mr.. Gladstone at the end Of a
fifty years trial Of matrimony. Speak
ing of Mrs. Gladstone he said:
No words that | could use would ever
suffice TO express the debt that owe her
in relation TO the Offices that she has dis
charged on my behalf and on behalf of
those who are nearest and dearest to us.
during the long and the happy period OF
our conjugal union.
Marriage is much like life. In the
hands Of the noble, the wise and the
good it may be made triumph, in the
hands Of the base and the ignoble it may
be- and generally is, foretaste Of He'll.
Hence it may be said that the impress
sion has gained ground that marriage
wisely contracted is successful, that mar.
riage contracted unwisely is sure to be .
failure So that marriage is likely to 90 on
in rhythmic ripples like the babbling
brook and to ripple and babble on forever
and forever with an everlasting echo Of
EVER.

THE American Economist is one Of
those organs maintained by the money Of
the protectionists to exploit the doctrine
that protectionism as q scheme to provide
cheaper goods and enable the manufac-
turef to pay higher wages at the same
sine. The last issue mourns thus:
The free trader is very tender of the
interest Of the consumer, but ignores
that of the producer.
That is pathetic in the extreme. The
consumers are 50, 900, 900. Those directly
interested in maintaining a high
tariff are less than 1000, 600 their
dependents would probably raise
the number to 10000 900. Hence
the wall for the producer is not affecting.
since this country is run for the many
and not for the few. The producer, poor
lamb, is the rich manufacturer; the con.
sumer belongs to the many, who if the
the wealth Of the country were divided
among them would average probably $17
a head Hence even from this standpoint
the poor dear lamb Of producer, does not
seem to command commiserstion. 1t is 3
pity about the lack Of sympathy for the
producer.

What Is being done In the interests Of
projections Very little, we are compelled
to admit, outside Of that done by the
American Protective Tariff League. And
why Is this soY Well, because we are
tired Of tariff talk" And suppose
this apathy continues, what will be the
result2 II Is not difficult TO foresee. The
victory of last November was won by too
narrow a margin TO be retained without
struggle Already the enemy is hard
At work to overthrow the results of last
fall American Economist.
II is not strange that the protectionists
are alarmed They won the country
by losing the manufacturing states New
Jersey and Connecticut, losing votes in
all the manufacturing cities, losing the
popular majority by 100000 and by w'n-
ming in Indiana and in New York by
trades and bribery. They may well be
alarmed for the success Of protectionism,
having Doodle only TO face these odds.
They have probably heard from kentucky
too and the strong protectionist senti-
ment that is growing there But grow
ing into increased Democratic maiorities.
The robber tariff must go, Mr.. Protec.
Zionist. The trusts, the failures and the
starving thousands in Illinois, Indiana
and Pennsylvania all assist the Demo
Gratis and add conviction to their argu-
ments

Arrested and Locked Up.

There was quite a sensation at the
grocery store Of August Bierman at
Fourth and Tatnall streets this morning
about 10 o'clock. All the Biermans were
out OF the store. Mrs 3ierman, on com
ing into the store, saw Alexander Serb
Ter, colored sitting behind the counter
by the money drawer. He started
for the door. Mrs. Bierman caught
hold OF him and he dragged her
to the door, shattered the glass door to
atoms, and landed Mrs. Bierman on the
pavement. Alexander then started to
run down che street. Theodore Lange, a
small boy, ran before him and tripped
him, then tried to hold him down. Just
then Joseph Bierman ran to his assist.
ance and the two boys led Alexander
back to Bierman's store, where Constable
William A Meredith arrested him and
took him to the police station.

1t is impossible to convince sane man
that tariff can be laid to make goods
cheaper and at the same time increase
the manufacturers profits and enable
him to pay the workman higher wages.
That does not strike plain man as
reasonable proposition. Possibly
the Daily Republican would do yell to
print its explanations Of the phenomena
Of a high tariff making goods cheaper
profits greater and wages higher. 1t
seems that the manufacturers would not
derive much benefit from process Of
taxation which compels them to take less
for their goods and pay higher price for
labor. The mental operations of high
protectionist are curious and to com
mon sense, plain, business man they are
entirely unintelligible The Daily Re
publican should enlarge its columns and
explain these economical phenomena.

II is an agreeable and instructive-it
Is almost breezy-piece Of information
that the wages at Carnegie's mills were
reduced because the men were making
''too much. y It is not claimed that a
tarif of 6s per cent. is not high enough
or that the profits Of the mills are not
sufficient. Wages were reduced not
quite 20 per cent. because the working
men were making ''too much. This Is
not joke nor campaign lie, though it
it seems both humorous and improbable
1t is simply an after-election fact. It
shows the hollow mockery Of the claim
OF protection for the American work

Prince Russell went abroad to study

cred valuable by the Harpers, Century.
