lug the effect of the new tariff. The
effect OF this tyrannical Measure which
bears the name Of the Mckinley bill is
such that every merchant, irrespective
of political persuasion, is compelled to
consider it from . purely financial stand
point. They are a unit in the belief
that the new tsriff will work q hardship
on the masses, while it's benefciaries are
confined solely to the wealthy manufac-
turers. Facts and figures are adduced
in support of this theory that are only
to be presented to be easily compre-

Morning Work.

The w~ell-known millionaire, ex-Con-
gresham George West of Ballston, N.
Y, says he solves many of his most
perplexing business problems while in
bed, in the early morning hours.
Commenting on the fact, he remarked
that some one once told him that the
late Commodore Vanderbilt had said
" Young men talk about getting up
early in the morning to go to work.
While they are puzzling themselves at
their desks w business propositions
| lie abed, think them over, and find
the solution before l go to the Office"
This confirms the conclusion OF many
others, that ones thoughts are clearer
while he is in a recumbent position
than at any other time. This may
arise in part from the fact that in the
early morning the mind is rested, and
n is usually free at that time from
intrusion. Thus concentrated effort is
facilitated.

correspondent Of the Philadelphia Press.
shows that Nevada is not the only State
where the rich escape taxes: A few years
ago. when the credit of Jay Gould was
seriously threatened. he displayed to q
number Of Wall street f~nanciers several
great trunks filed with stocks and bonds,
mostly railroad securities. aggregating in
all nearly $50, 600. 900. He said that this
was his property. and that he regarded
most Of it as o permanent investment.
Yet when his Ease was reached by the
Commissioners it was found that he was
bitterly opposed to paying taxes on per-
sonal property for more than $3.50, 900,
and he escaped with an assessment OF
only $500, 600.

Painful

ELY, New, Nov. 8, 1890.
Ed. SENTINEL: Bishop Scanlan, Of Salt
Lake City, met with q painful accident
this morning by the upsetting of the mail
stage n mile from here. The Bishop
had his scalp SO severely cut that the
doctor had TO put five stitches in it. He
is now the guest Of Mr.. Poujade, who is
doing everything to make him comfort
able. 1t is the common opinion Of all in
town that the cause of the accident was
the liberty taken by the regular driver
of that stage. Jack Bliss, to allow an
italian to drive for him on that day.
while he attended the races. The italian
drove into a bank and upset. Had the
regular driver been at his work, for
which he is paid, no accident would have
happened. z. Fl.

o MUCH ZEAL.

There is just a little danger that we
are being governed too much. We read
that an Indiana Postmaster has thrown
out Of the mails the entire edition Of the
Fort Wayne Daily Journal because the
paper published 81 account Of . Catho-
lie Church Fair which contained Q list Of
members who had drawn prizes. An
other journal was also stopped because
it contained q short item regarding the
rafting of a sofa pillow for the benefit Of
. poor family.
President Harrison 10 a sAnsible man
and should make an example of this
Postmaster. His Interpretation Of the
law is that any Postmaster may consti-
tute himself . censor over the newspa-
pers that come to his care, examine item
as vigorously as q Russian censor and, il
he pleases, throw them out Of the mails.
No law was ever passed by Congress
giving such power. We approved of the
Presidents course against lotteries and
of legal action toward the suppression
of the Louisiana lottery. But it is one
thing to suppress a lottery and another
to interfere with the liberties Of the citi-
zen. To throw out Of the mails the en-
tire edition of . newspaper because IL
contained an item regarding the rattle Of
. sofa pillow for the benefit Of q poor
family is an outrage. II only shows to
what extent this beautiful paternaI gov.
eminent is going-that il is really gov
eminent by going to the devil.

Senator Teller often makes some
shrewd remarks, many Of his epigrsms
being worthy TO be remembered as
msxims; bat in the whole Of his public
life. and an active career Of nearly four
teen years ss United States Senator. he
has never uttered q more pregnant truth

who compose the bankers Of Wall street,
are as q rule almost without an excep-
ton, close, sordid aud selfish TO . degree;
patriotism being as alien TO their hearts
as orthodoxy 10 to Bob Ingersolls.
Those men, or many Of them, really
care no more for the United States than
they do for China, only that this is .
more fertile field for money making.
Shylocks all. no consideration OF equity
ever deters them for q moment in
the mad and reckless pursuit of the dol

not one Of them has . penny invested in
any business or industry which involves
q severer, mental or physical strain than
clipping off interest coupons. When
did such people do an honest days work!
Love Of the country, whose flag hovers
over them with its protecting folds, they
do not know.
II was these same Wall street men
who were so patriotic during the war,
that they exerted themselves TO wreck
this country in the most patent and
subtitle way imaginable. by supplying its
finances. 1t was they that secured con-
