Now, once more, let us suggest that
an editor, if capable of guiding his
fellowmen, ought to be able to see
through this "stuff." In the first
place only one-sixth OF the imports
are agricultural, including the chaff
in the above, which we shall specify.
Just think OF it. Agriculture is the
great exporter-the great basis of
wealth-the substrat of the nation
and yet it gets only one-sixth Of the
protection!
One-sixth did we say! One-sixth?
Why, it doesn't get the one-twenty-
fifth. Then what do the above figures
mean? Well, the fact is, that the
eastern manufacturer is so thorough
ly protected" that the foreign pro-
duct is actually prohibited in this
country. You put the tariff on the
manufacturers down to the agricul-
tural tariffs and the agricultural tar
ifs up to the manufacturers grade,
and you would put the empty head
that produced those figures in
cage. These imports of agricultural
products, small as they are, are
caused by the farmers not being pro-
tected, while the eastern pirate is
selling his goods in Europe for SO for
which he charges our jobbers SOL!
Now let us look at these figures,
and see how this country editor is
sprinkling sweat and poverty over
his countrymen:
Those "animals and meats" Out
OF fourteen million dollars value OF
imports two-thirds comes from
breeding animals, etc., entered free
while the manufacturer is pro-
tected.
Another large portion comes from
all animals imported into the United
States by immigrants, which are free.
"Cotton" -This is sumner!
There.are certain brands OF cotton
not raised at all in this country.
The amount of protection cotton
gets will be better understood when
it is known that the cotton (raw)
comes in free.
'Dairy Products too
small to consider when we note the
vast extent of our Canadian border,
and foreign cheese of peculiar make.
Fruits, other than tropical"
Many Of these are protected" to the
enormous amount Of 1c. per pound
The statement ($S, 794, 272) is false
anyway-and most OF it refers to
trade across the Canadian border.
Grain, hops, hay, etc" This in
cludes arrow-root, macaroni, farina,
sage, vermicelli, ETC., much OF it free,
and not raised in this country. The
rest of it stands for wheat shipped in
from Manitoba by the Minneapolis
wheat thieves, ground into -four, ex-
ported-and the government pays
back their tariff within two cents a
bushel. This protection" costs the
farmers of the northwest about 800
100000 annually.
"Wools"-The large amount of
$17,000,O00 of wool imported-and
yet wool was protected" This
shows how much protection helps
the farmer. He paid the tariff-price
for the goods, but received no real
protection.
The fact is, that the farmer is hled
to death to sustain manufacturers
who sell their goods in the FOREIGN
markets now-and charge the home
market airprofit plus the tariff. and
the foreign market the same price
less the tariff.
And these country papers will sus-
tain the awful robbery.

A Pen Picture Of Parnell.

Charles Stewart Parnell usually
wears loosely fitting cutsway coat.
He gets all of the wear out of a coat
there is in it. He wears it until it is
shiny, then he wears it until it is
shabby, then he keeps on wearing it..
Parnell has grown very cd looking in
the last few years. The bald spot on
his head has increased perceptibly in
size, and the gray hairs in his beard
are growing more and more numer-
ous He feels the responsibility of
his position keenly, and his health
has become impaired under its weight.
There is constantly troubled express
sion upon his face, and he seldom
smiles or INDUCES in light converse
ton. After he becomes worn out
with his work he disappears, some
times for weeks, and no one knows
where to look for him. He drops as
completely out of the world as if he
had dropped into his grave. 1t is said
he feels positively sure of the unlimited
triumph of the Irish cause.-Yankee
Blade.

BY A MAD SEAL.
The Terrifying Experience of an
Express Messenger on

Kansas City, July S.-Frank Ter

messenger, his helper and a baggage
man bad thrilling experience on a
Santa Fe train near Argentine yester.
day with a mammoth seal, which,
with three Others. had b en- shipped
from San Franci,co to New York.
There were tw" pairs Of the seal
and they had b en- brought down
from the seal islands in the Pacific f r
the owner Of a geological garden in
New York. The ANIMALS were taken
from the ship where they had been In
water and shipped in thr.e large
wooden cages, wei constructed and
strongly bound by hemp ropes to
doubly insure against the possibility
of their breaking out.
Toe intense heat and absence of
water proved disastrous FIR three of
them. The first one of the seals to
die was female at Denver. On the
train between that point and Kansas
City one of the males went mad and
attacked his mate killing her almost
instantly by biting her head nearly
of. He raved for several hours and
the express messenger and other occu-
pants of the car were considerably
frightened lest he should break the
strong cage and escape.
The animal finally quieted down
and gave the messenger no further
trouble until Argentine was reached.
Then he became furious, and raising
himself on bis foremost fins used his
tail with such force that he
broke the cage into pieces
in less time than it takes to
tel it, and then bowling and Shrek
ing made an attack on Express Mes
senger Terry. He jumped on large
pile of express matter but was quickly
driven from that position. The men
at last made their escape through the
side door of the car and closed it be-
hind them. The zeal ragged for about
five minutes and them dropped down
dead. The carcass, weighing 518
pounds, was taken to Armour's pack
ing house and skinned.
The remaining seal was carefully
watered here this morning and shipped
on to New York.

Shot by HIS Wife.

Slater, Mo-, July 8.-John Harri-
son, billiard hall man, was shot and
mortally wounded Sunday night
shortly after IL o'clock by his wife,
Hattie Harrison. 1t seems that they
had not been living together for about
six months. Sunday night Harrison
went to the bedroom window of Mrs.
Harrison and was trying to get in,
when she awoke and asked who was
there. When she found out it was
her husband, she told him to go away
or she would shoot him. He said,
"shoet and be d." As he was
about to raise the screen she shot him.
He fell back, crying. "Oh, Hattie,
you have shot me" but got up again
and ran around to the front door add
broke it open. She shot at him
again, but missed him. She then ran
out in the back yard. Harrison had
fallen in the meantime, and was car.
ried to his room across the street.
The doctors found that he was shot
just above the heart, and think there
10 no hope for him.
