Hon. Larry T. Neal in Napoleon.

Hon. Larry T. Neal spoke to a crowded
court room Saturday on the vital national is
sue which effects every person within the
great boundaries of this domain-the tariff
question. To many this has been an enigma,
but to him who heard this discussion it is go
no longer. 1t is as transparent as day, to Re
system of legalized robbery that cannot
long be tolerated by a people who regard
themselves as free.
Mr.. Neal has been prime favorite in this
section ever since his plucky race for govern
or and Henry county's democracy and re-
publicans too were eager to hear him on the
subject of the tariff.
de is pleasing man of abeut 48 years of
age, middle sized in stature and good natur-
ed face surmounted with a jet black NOUS
tache. His manner is affable and to see him
is to be his friend.
He began his discourse by maintaining
that when this government assessed its sub
lects for money not necessary to carry on the
government, or took from the pockets of any
one class money and no value returned, then
the legislators enacting such laws were bid
ding defiance to the constitution. He showed
that 800, 100000 were coming into the tree d
ury yearly. The very first page of the Nc
Kinley bill asserted that its aim was to re-
duce this enormous income at least $7O,OOO,-
GOO. Instead of so doing a computation of
the increased taxes by this monstrosity
brings forward the great amount of $6O,0OO,-
GOO that will be wrung from the laborina
class next year more than last.
This is how they followed out their inten-
tions. Their intentions were all right but
millionaire lobbyists controlled all amend
ments and the result could not be otherwise.
Taking several articles he partly itemized
this immense amount. For instance wool
and woolen goods we're taxed 80 as to bring
$16,OOO,O00 more into the national Golfers
an increase of so per cent. He, by enumer
ating other articles ION which is an increase
OF ~ to 180 per cent. convinced every
doubling mind that the vast increase would
come from the poor and not the rich. The
theory held by the republicans that the tariff
was not paid by the consumer was not tenable
and he proved that the leading men of that
party had not held it as such until recent
politics demanded it. He quoted John
Sherman over twenty years ago standing up
in the United States Senate and asseverating
that the consumer did pay the tax and no
other. John.Logan was also cited as man

The tin question received a severe blow

even with a tax of four or five cents DER
pound; it was tried during the war and prov
ed dismal failure. The Mckinley bill ad-
vocates claimed that $4,000 men would be
employed in the tin industries, granting
their hypothesis. Mr.. Neal proved to his
hearers that over 100000 laborers in the
canning industries and lobster fishing on the
rock-bound coast of Maine would be thrown
out of employment or previously effected by
the increased price in tin goods and as a
natural sequence, less consumption.
Mr.. Neal captivated the audience-com-
posed mostly of farmers, when in discussing
the wheat question he ended by stating that
he was a farmer-that every dollar he had in
the world was invested in farming and that
his interests were identical with the inhabi-
tants of the rural districts. r@~Al tn-,s>
His speech was an argument complete in
favor of low tariff and every point made, is
incontrovertable.
It is our pleasure to have given the speech
of the able statesman in full, but crowded
columns forbid. Is is acknowledged to be
| the best ever made on the tariff here. He
examined and confuted every argument ad-
vanced by the high takers. He wrested their
| own weapons from their hands and then
broke them over their shoulders. As may
readily be supposed, the whole audience was
amazed, entranced, and democrats were de-
lighted by the breadth of knowledge he dis
played on the tariff. On this question he
probed to the bottom and brought up the
truth to the gaze of the concourse, no matter
how distasteful to the high takers present.
In closing he paid beautiful tribute to
the democratic party at once eloquent and
mastery. For smooth rhetoric, graceful de-
livery and logical discussion he is second to
none. He did the democracy an inestimable
! good by his timely arrival.

Familiar Quotations.

The old phrase, "There's
many a slip 'twixt the cup and
the lip" is a literal translation
of an old Greek hexameter line;
and when we talk of Smiling
through tears we are quoting
Homer. The happy expression,
''nullum quod tetigitit nom or
navitt, is the phrase employed
by DR.. Johnson in his epitaph
on Goldsmith to express the
genius of his friend. The line
so often attributed to Shaks-
peare, GA fellow feeling makes
one wondrous kind" was writ
ten by Garrick in the occasion
al prologue spoken by him on
leaving the stage. Owen Felt
ham; the author of the Gre
solve," is one of those unfortu-
nate men who have written
many good and pithy things,
while others have usurped the
credit of them; such for instan-
ces, as "without a certain modi-
cum of chaff, the horse is apt to
bolt his OATS" which has been
SO dexterously applied. Ma
caulay has been the reputation
of many a brilliant epigram for
which he was indebted far more
to his gigantic memory than to
his originality.
The oft-quoted image OF the
traveller from New leland tax
ing his stand on a broken arch
of London bridge to sketch the
ruins Of St. PauPs is borrowed
from Horace Walpole, "The
imitation of Christ" Herbert's
"Iacula Prudentium," and Fran
klin's works are the great store
houses Of many proverbs and
quotations. From the first we
have ''Man proposes but
God disposes. ''Of two evils,
the less is always to be chosen.
"Early to bed and early to rise
makes man healthy, wealthy
and wise," is from Franklin; so
also is, "God helps them that
help themselves" He that goes
a borrowing goes a sorrowing;;''
and the oft repeated quotation,
the "Best is always the cheap
est" is by common consent at
tributed to the well known firm
of Saur & Balsley, for it is uni
versally known that they al
ways carry not only the best,
but the purest drugs and medi-
cines in the market, and while
they are the very best they sell
them as cheap if not cheaper
than what isasked by others for
inferior goods.
While this house is carrying
a complete stock Of medicines
and drugs they also have the
largest stock of paints, oils,
varnishes and brushes to be
found anywhere in the North
ern market. The stock consists
of the best brands in the world
and sold at the very lowest
notch. Also they pay particu-
lar attention to their wall paper
and decorations, window shades
and fixtures, Of which they at
all seasons of the year carry a
complete stock, always consist
ing all of the latest styles. The
styles at the present time are
indeed beautiful and it will re-
pay anyone whether they wish
to buy or not to examine the
stock of Saur & Balsley. |
