One of the most pitiful evidences of
the mental abjeetness to which the tariff
superstition has reduced some bright
minds, is the case of Senator Hawley,
of Connecticut. Senator Hawley was
president of the Centennial exhibition
in Philadelphia in 1876, and thus had
superior opportunities of witnessing
what that great interchange of the prod
ucts of the worlds industrial skill and
artistic genius and taste did to promote
the progress of his own country. But
i'll the senate the other day he yentured
to air his tariff bigotry by saying that
IF the United States was shut out from
the rest of the world it would come out
of the test fat and happy" So, doubt
less, it would also come out stupid,
lethargic and demoralized. Fifty years
of commercial freedom would be better
than a cycle of secluSion from the
world under the Chinese policy of the

PRINCE RUssELL'S SCHEMES.

Hon. "Dick" Kerens, of st. Louis,
| is at the st. James waiting the coming
| of Prince Russell Harrison. Kerens is
| a millionaire seven times over, and just
about as shrewd man as any one would
care to meet 1t was his money that
went into Frank Leslie's when Arkell
made Harrison the offer of an interest
| at rock-bottom price. plus the use of
| his name, for KerenS was SilreWd enough
| to realize the value of the White house
connection to newspaper that de-
/ pended on "Write ups" of country towns
for its income. The presidents son as
| a canvaSSer for lottery and town write
| ups" would be great success, so Arkell
| and kerenS struck bargain. The Texas
| trip and the lottery advertising secured
| down there are known from one end of
| the land to the other, but Russell has
| been quietly at work on other concerns
| having interests in national way, and
| has secured good many contracts as the
presidents son which the advertisers
| never would have touched had an ordi-
nary canvasser solicited them. The in
| vestment has proved so profitable that
| KerenS is using Prince Russell as his
dummy in half a dozen enterprises
whose success depend largely on the

name always figures prominently in the
tnews dispatches concerning these pro-
jeets. though everybody who knows the
financial condition Of the prince two
wears ago, and the dark trail left behind
by his bankrupt Montana cattle enter
| prise, are alive to Kerens' ''blind."
The fact IS, and happen to know
Ewhereof speak. that young Harrison
Iiis being used in these schemes for the
| free advertising that his name brings,
I Just as Wanamaker figured out profit
able bargain in the gift of the $4,000
cottage at Cape May Points latest
name is ''Mosquito Ranch''-and
as the Washington spectators
captured the family for the Glen
Echo land speculation. Russell didn't
have a dollar of his own when he was
seemingly made a partner in Frank
Leslie's, for the whole family was I'M
poyeriShed by the cost of capturing the
presidential nomination, added to the
heavy losses they had sustained by fol-
lowing his Speculations in Montana. He
has never been fortunate in his invest
ments, and the Harrisons would have
had but little left outside of their home
stead and the generals comfortable law
practice had the tide not turned in their
favor of the Chicago convention. Yet
Russell always regarded himself as
little shrewder than any other man in
financial operations, and / am told that
this old failing has developed to an
alarming extent since he got uuderMill-
iOnaire Kerens' wing.

his reciprocity ideas, and Edmunds,
