American manufacturers can and do send
their products across our northern
border, pay the Canadian import DUTY

ton with the products Of free trade

come that the whole story was an eGag
gerAted free trade fabrication inspired
perhaps by English gold or the Golden
Club or some other terrible ogre of the
fat flyers imagination. Yet here we
have from an unimpeachable Republican
organ Of the highest rank the admission,
even the beast, that we are Bupply-
ing Canada with 80 psr cent of
her iron and steel imports. OF
course these products are sold at lower
prices to Canadians than they are in our

fact that they are so sold in British

THE BAND CONCERT.

The band concert Tuesday night
was enjoyable in every sense of the
word and the attendance was the
largest of the season. The music was
of character to please the most fas-
tidious-the modern classical being
mingled with that of lighter vein
throughout the programme. The fol-
lowing numbers were given:
March, Washington Post, Sonsa.
Overture, Luspiel, Kela Bella.
Selection, Offenbachs' Operas.
Paraphrase, My Maryland.
Spanish Fandango. Binns
The march, by Sonsa, the Director
of the Marine Band, is one of the best
and like all of that composers efforts.
was admirably adapted to street per.
folmance. Sonsa's marches have long
held place in the front ranks of Am
erican favorites.
The Kela Bella Overtures are al
ways good, being rich in harmony and
pleasing in melody. Luspies was nc
exception and the careful execution
given it earned just applause.
The selection from Offenbachs'
Opera was a pOtpourri of leading airs
culled from his different operas and
interviewer in truly artistic style.
Paraphrase, My Maryland, is a
modern classical piece of much beauty
of melody and harmony.
The Spanish Fandango, by Binns,
is live piece of such marked time
that the impulse to beat time with the
feet becomes almost irresistible.
Next Tuesday the concert will be
held in Strinesville, at Sprinkle's
store, near Westrader's lawn, thus
giving the people of that section OF
the town chance to hear the music
without the fatigue of coming up
town. B. f.

THE NEWSPAPER.

Justice Harlan, of the United
States Supreme Court, in a lecture
before the law college of the Univers-
ity of Wisconsin the other day, paid
a high compliment to the newspapers
of America. He approved that wise
provision in the Bill of Rights that
Congress shall not make laws abrldg-
ing the freedom of the press, and
emphasized the invaluable service
newspapers render the public in
keeping the people posted on the
daily transactions OF the world, their
vigilance in guarding society by
letting in the light on corrupt prac.
tees wherever found, and in aiding
in thousand ways in raising the
standard of morality and virtue In
public and private by exposing the
enemies of law and order. The ties
timony of good men, he thinks,
shows that we are much better than
we were twenty-five or fifty years
ago, and much of the improvement
is undoubtedly due to the watchful
ness of the public journals.

The death of General Fremont
who was the first candidate OF the
Republican party for president
brings to mind how young that
party is, and emphasizes the great
work it has done in a period less
than the life of ore man. From the
time of bis nomination it has gained
steadily in strength and influence,
1t was tested as none ever was in
this or any other republic, carrying
the nation through its greatest crisis,
and emerging from the war more
firmly established than ever. The
Republican party can point with a
greater degree of pride and satisfac.

has received under its guidance
than any other which ever existed
in AMERICA. 1t grows steadily and

The poor people in the large cities
are suffering the extremes of heat
and want at this season of the year.
In New York, where the cloak
makers and other strikes are going
on, there are thousands out of house,
home and bread. Everything they
had is pawned. Many men, women,
and children are worked to death or
starved to death. Mothers and
children suffer the greatest pangs
of hunger and privation. A stab
would be less painful than to hear
ones children cry for bread. Chart
able institutions and individuals do
what they can for the relief OF the
suffering, but it is only a drop in
the bucket. Starving in the midst
of wealth and plenty seems incredi'

and the seashore, overly goes to the
