Mr. Blaine talked reciprocity to the
people at Waterville. Ne, on August
GOTH Some things which he said would
not have been out of place in tariff re-
form or even = free trade speech For
instance:
81 wish to declare the opinion that
the United States has reached 4 point
where one of its highest duties is to en-
large the area of its foreign trade.
Under the beneficent policy of protec-
ton we have developed volume of
manufactures which in many DEPART
ments overruns the demand of the home
market In the fed of agriculture,
with the immense propulsion given it
by agricultural implements, we can do
far more than produce breadstuffs and
provisions for our own people; nor
would it be an ambitious destiny for SO
great a country as ours. to manufacture
only what We can consume or TO produce
only what we can eat"
This doctrine is . severe blow to the
Chinese wall fellows who want us to be
independent" . and who want TO de-
velop" the home market SO that it will
take up ali our products Mr.. Blaine
declares that 1.-THE inevitable tendency
is toward the increase of the free list
~ believe" he says, that one article
after another will be found to need less
and less protection till ultimately the
Importation of free articles will be
equal to that of protected articles"
The end at which the Secretary aims
is about the same as that arrived at by
the tariff reformer lie would do the
work, however, by negotiating treaties
of reciprocity with foreign nations, and
would admit their articles free only as
they would admit ours free. The tariff
reformer, on the other hand, would put
articles on the free list without regard
to what other nations might do, because
he believes such course would be best
for the people of the United States.
There is one point, though, that Mr..
Blaine should think about IL he reall y
wishes to try his reciprocity scheme,
there is a chance for him right at hand.
England admits all our products, viii
three or four Insignificant exceptions.
absolutely FREQ of duty. Why should
not we reciprocate? No treaty is neces-
sary; no long negotiations are required.
England has done her part We have
free access to her markets. Why is not
reciprocity in order here?
Mr.. Blaine is being educated very
rapidly. HIS progress since 1855 is
something remarkable. But the differ
ences between him and Mr.. Mckinley are
quite irreconcil able. Tho one seeks tc
extend our foreign trade, the other to
check importations; the one believes
that the day will come when protection
will not be needed. the other believes
in it as a permanent policy without re-
likes it for its own sake. Reciprocity
means intimate free trade. Mckinley,
ism means absolute destruction of all
foreign commerce

'Out of town. Why. man alive, I've

button-holed an old chum. to whom he
said:
''Well. I've got back"

ager..
"You-don't :say-so?' was the amazed
retort of the solemn looking chum.
e Tho next acquaintance remarked as he
stopped a moment: Il haven't seen you
for n week or two. Had hay fever?'
That broke the conbination. The re-
turned traveller got on his dignity and
declined to notice any more OF his
townsmen till they sent brass band

The force of example in animals is
illustrated by the following incident
related by a correspondent of John
Bull: ''Sone years ago we had two
cats-a tabby and a powerful Tom per-
feetly white all over. One day l hap
pened to be in the attic and noticed
them go out on the states, when Tom
jumped across the yard to the next
roof. It appeared to me a splendid
leap, considering the width of the yard
and the height of the roof When
Tabby came to the edge of the states
her courage failed and she uttered a
cry of distress, whereupon Tom turned
round and leaped back, and, giving a
cheerful new, as much as to say: Look
how easily it can be done jumped
across again, this time followed by Tab

to the Mckinley check on English trade

Do you mean what you say? Do you

And England is a free trade country,
and Germany and Belgium have high
protection. VIII some good protection
list tell us why protection has not made
wages higher in these countries than in

Last winter Mr.James Gillinder a high

of Philadelphia, went before McI(ialey
to ask for still higher protection against

How a Protective Tariff Drives Foreign

y late number of Bradstreet's gives a
report on the wheat market, in which
the conclusion is reached that Europe
Is anticipating future requirements
through purchases of wheat in other
markets than the United States"
This report shows that the tendency
in Europe toward finding other markets
in which to buy wheat still grows The
London correspondent of the New York

about the excitement caused by the Nc.

just so with foreign trade We refuse
to buy English goods; then the English
must end other countries in which to

etc; and while their ships are in the

THE FIRST BLIZZARD.


\ Girl Frozen to Death in "a storm In New
Mexico.
RATION, N. NJ, Oct 25.-Monday even
ing William Mich and his sixteen-year-
old daughter were going from Folsom
to the ranch. The girl was driving a
team ahead, while her father came be-
hind with another.
They were overtalSen by a blizzard
when about half way home. The father
reached homo in safety and was horri-
fed to find that his daughter had not
yet arrived. She had lost her way in
the binding storm.
The blizzard continued through the
night SO little could be done in search
ing for the lost girl. She was found
yesterday about ten miles from her
home frozen to death. She had man
aged to unhitch the horses and turn
them loose before she became exhausted
