Free-Trade Jugglery.

In no direction does the ingenuity
of the free-trade attorney become more
evident than when he is juggling with
percentages and ad valorem equivalents
in our tariff laws. AS so much of his
stock in trade consists of statements
"that lead to bewilder and dazzle to
blind" he revels in the realm of
equivalent percentages, aiming thereby
to confuse the inconsiderate voter and
leave with him an impression at va
rance with his impulse to do that
which is for the best interests of HIM
self and others. AS prices 60 down
under competition between home pro-
ducers, as has always resulted from
adequate protection of any industry,
and it seems no longer possible to
brighten voters with the threat of in
creased expenses of living, the attor-
neys for free-trade begin TO ring the
changes on the resulting enhancement
of tariff equivalents. Hence the false
hood that tariffs are now higher than
at the close of the war. This free
trade bubble, that is tloated before the
eyes of voters whenever opportunity
offers, can be readily exploded by the
citation of a few solid facts. When
steel rails were selling at $50 per ton
the existing tariff of ST was the equiv
alent of thirty-four per cent, which is
less than what the trainers of the once
famous Mills bill" recognized as a
fair protection for the average of do
nestle manufactures. But when the
competition between producers forced
the prices of rails down to SOS per ton
the same tariff of SIT became the
equivalent of over sixty per cent, and
the effort was at once made to turn the
attention of voters from the low prices at
which rails were selling to the contem-
plation of excessive tariff percentages.
And this when foreign rails could not
have been imported, except at loss,
if the tariff had been reduced by half.
And so on through the entire category
of manufactures. The prices of every
product have been lowered, and to con-
ceal this fact, which is at variance
with the theory of free-trade and the
predictions of all its prophets, those
who find it to their interest to insist
that foreigners shall be permitted to
sell in American markets on terms that
are not accorded to American citizens
attempt, with clouds of figures, to con-
ceal the chief facts at issue, to the end
that voters may be led to believe lie.

The sound OF Light.

One of the most wonderful discov-
cries in science that have been made
is the fact that beam of light pro-
duces sound. A beam of sunlight is
thrown through lens or glass vessel
that contains lampblack, colored silk
or worsted, or other substances. 4
disk having Sits or openings cut in 1t
is made to revolve swiftly in this
beam of light, SO as to cut it up, thus
making alternate flashes of light and
shadow. On putting the ear to the
glass vessel, strange sounds are heard
SO long as the flashing beam is falling
on the vessel. Art journal.

Indoor and Outdoor Light

Most persons would say that the
outside light is two or three times as
strong rs that within our houses. But
the ratio of difference is vastly greater.
Carefully prepared tables according 10
Health. show that for a view at the
seashore, comprising sea aud sky
mainly with a lens and plate of a
certain speedD, an exposure OF one
tenth of second is sufficient. An
open landscape away from the sea
would. with the same lens, the same
aperture, and the same plate, require
one.third IF second. A fairly light
ell interior would require 81 minutes,
while badly lighted interior, such as
rooms which most ladies prefer to
occupy, would require half an hour
to obtain an equally good picture. In
other words. patients strolling on the
seashore in sunny weather are in n
light not two or three times but Is, 900
times stronger than thar in the ordin-
ary shaded and curtained rooms of a
town house: and the same patients
walking along the sunny side of IA
street are receiving more than 5000
times as much OF the health giving
influence of light as they would re-
ceive indoors in the usually heavily
curtained rooms.

According to the Lancet, DR.. Lud-
eritz has recently made number of
observations on the destructive power
of coffee upon various microbes. He
found that the organisms all died in
a longer or shorter period. In one
series of experiments, anthrax bacilli
was destroyed in three hours, anthrax
spores in four weeks. cholera bacilli
in four hours, aud the Streptococcus
of erysipelas in one day. Good and
bad coffee produce precisely similar
effects.

The Company own 5000 feet of
placer ground in Robinson Canyon,
commencing at the mouth of the
canyon and running 5000 feet along
its course to the Joanna mine. They
have sunk two shafts-one about | 900
feet from the mouth of the canyon,
and at depth of As feet find large
quantities of black sand, with good
prospects of fine gold, and have not
reached bedrock. Shaft No is about
5000 feet from the mouth of the
canyon and the rim rock was struck
at depth of 30 feet. This prospects
well in coarse gold and is getting
richer as depth is attained on the rim
rock. Several pans taken out of the
incline going as high as 30 cents to
the pan-the gravel averaging about
s cents to the pan-leaving no doubt
that the channel is rich. Some pieces
on the rim rock weighed as high as
Is cents. The company is going to
start several other shafts to thoroughly
prospect their ground, and have every
confidence of finding placers that will
rival the richest spots in California in
the palmiest days.
The recent storms and heavy snow
have retarded prospecting, but the
company has determined to have
things in shape to take advantage of
the spring thaws, and will sluice
enough dirt to prove beyond doubt
that the ground is dividend-paying
investment.

ensuing six months are as follows:

DEMOCRATIC IDEAS.

Democracy believes in liberty
and in responsibility also, for their
can lie no liberty without RESPONSE
bility.
Individual liberty should be al
lowed to the fathest possible extent
mill its license interfered with the
liberty of society. Hence, laws IN
restriction of individual action may
be made for the social cool. But
the fundamental principle must not
be forgotten. The democratic idea
of a government of the people Is
necessarily based first Oh individual
liberty; second on family govern
ment; third on a compromise by the
individual and the family with the
governing power, agreed upon, to
direct what is best for all, And in
doing this it should always be re-
membered that no surrender should
be made from the individual or the
family farther than is demanded by
the general good. Ali power and
authority proceeds from the people
The people ought not to surrender
to any central power any more au'
thority than is required for the good
OF the whole.
