their favorite chief Of chiefs. VIII they
listen to-day with the same respect 10
his words of warning? They are doubt
less all aware that Mr.. Blaine has writ
ten certain letters to Senator Frye, Of
Maine, upon the subject Of the tariff.
In one of these letters he says that the
Mckinley bill, which has been passed
by the House Of Representatives and Is
now under discussion in the Senate, will
not give the American farmer market
for a single additional bushel Of wheat
or barrel Of pork. He also calls the at
tention Of the American farmer to the
fact that his foreign markets are gradu-
ally narrowing, and that not only must
new markets be sought but carefully
cultivated IL he is to obtain anything
like fair prices for his products In the
markets of the world.
And do our farmers understand just
what this implies? The Mckinley bill
increases the tariff In the interest Of all
classes except the farmer and, there
fore, compels the latter 10 pay still
higher prices for all he buys.
Itdoes not widen his market, which
is at present growing more narrow, and
this will compel him to take still lower
prices for all he sells.
This Is the tariff question, so fur as the
farmer II concerned in nutshell, and
many Republican papers Ia this state
declare that this question is the chief
issue in the present campaign. IT so,
how will our farmers vote

in several languages. There were four
girls and one boy in the group, and they
aad come all the way from a little ham
let near Glasgow, Scotland, thus oddly
labeled. The tags told who they were,
where they were going, to whom they
were to be delivered in America, and also
certified that their fare had been paid to
the steamship company that forwarded
them.
The children were looking for the first
time at the wonders Of the new country
into which they had been sent. Only one
OF two of them were old enough to under
stand the change from their native land.

interesting group, and it is reproduced

money enough to send for them. He
sent for them two months ago, but before
bis letter reached Scotland, his wife had
died and Jeanette, aged eleven years, was
left in charge of her three little sisters.
OF these, Ellen was but a trifie over four
years of age; Jane just past eight years,
and Katie not quite ten. Alexander
King, aged fifteen years, but a boy quite
small for his years, was the only ~acqualnt-
ance the orphans had near their home,
and boy though he was, he came brayely
to their assistance in their hour of need.
He wrote a letter TO Mr.. Young immedi-
ately on receipt of his letter summoning
his family to America, and informed him
that as all FIVE could travel at a less rate
than Mrs. Young and the four girls could
have done, he proposed, through the aid
of the steamship company at Glasgow, to
bring the motherless children to America,
find their father, and deliver them to him,
and then look about for something to do
for himself, since he, also, had lost his
parents.
