FAITH CURE FANATICs.-The proper p ace
is the iaratie asylum fer such faith-cnre
fanatics as refuse to allow medical treat
ment to the sick members of their families,
as is the case with some in Massachusetts
II seems there Is no law in Massachusetts
tn punish such persons. There is in New
York, and four have recently been sent tG
prison in Brooklyn. The N Y.Herald says,
that such law is needed in Massachusetts
is shown By the following CASE
"The faith cure fanatic has seldom been seen
in more terrible phase than in the case OF
Rev. Geooge r Penny, Baptist minister at
Attieboro. who refuses medical aid to bis
young daughter, suffering severe attacl,
of typhoid fever TIE child has been i'll
over ten days, but no power has been abe
to bring her father to his senses Now the
mother has become 3 victim to the disease
and the husband ard father awaits the per-
formarcs of a miracle 10 their cure"
They should not ba sent to prison as
criminals, but to the lnnstic asylum as luna
tic7 for such they are. They are not con
scious Of wrong-doing, though they are
causing the dsath of their wives sud chill

The loss of Grady aud Dawson is great
misfortune. Their broad aggressiveness
will be missed, aud especially their large
and favorable acquaintance with Northern
people of prominence; but progress will not
stop because they are no more. No man
has ever left vacancy in life too large to
be filed. The ranks will close and the COL
umu move on though the relentless archer
strike down the strongest and bravest SOL
der in the line. There ere still brains ard
pluck, energy and patriotism among South

more quickly or emphaticaily than Grady
repudiated. the idea that his death would

Diaaer of Tariff Reform Leag que.
SPEECH By Hon. ROGER Q. MILLS

SPEECH By Hon. ROGER Q. MILLS OF
TEXAS.
In Boston, on the evening of the 3,st of
December, the membets of the Massachu-
eetts Tayiff. Reform League gathered in full
force at the fremont House, the occasion
being the annual dinner of the organiz,-
ton. Hon. Henry l.. Pierce presided.
President Pierce in opening the after
dinner exercises said there were three
great causes-tariff reform, ballet reform,
and civ -service reform-now on trial be-
fore the coantry, AMI that it was no
small advantage that Sin the struggle be-
fore US we have for our leader man of
moral courage, sterling honesty, and straight
foIwardaess, the most interesting personal
ity in American life-Grover Cleveland.
He il,on introduced Roger Q Mills as the
first spe aker Of the evening. Mr.. Mills was
enthus'a stically received.
Mr.. Mills said he was gratfied to meet
determined men in reforming the admins
tratinn Of our Government. In the course
Of his remarks he said: "History repeats
itself, and we are here tonight remOnstras-
ing with our Government for Its wrongful
Interference with our private business-do

Mr.. NJ lis concluded with these remarks:
"Oar production is outstripping our con-
SUMPTION, and the lines of divergence are
constantly growing wider. We can from
our manufactures turn out in nine months
of the year all that our people Can consume
10 twelve. In agriculture the excess of
production over consum ption is even great
er. We must find other consumers, and
open the way to reach them. We must
give them our surplus manufactures and
agricultural products for their coffee, sugar,
tea, sp ces, and such other things as they
can prod ace more cheaply than we CAN
Europe is sending annually into thu worlds
markets textiles of the value of thousands
of millions. These goods she manufaot-
ures because raw materials go to their fac
tories un6axed. These markets;she holds,
because her materials being untaxed, she
produces goods cheaper than we can. Oar
labor being more productive and more skill
full we c.n prodace greater part of these
cheaper than any rival if we eau remove
the cast which the tax en- material imposes.
By bringing this work TO our own factories
we would create an active demand for the
en- ploymsnt of all the labor in the laod.-
Wealth would increase, our home markets
would grow and expand, and p ceaseiess
hum of prosperous business would he heaid

gross have been taking some very interest
ing testimony lately on the subject Of the
tariff and It's operations. Nothing more
striking has been elected than the following
ealloquy between Mr. George A. Macbeth,
glass manufacturer of Pittsburg, Pa, who
appeared before the committee on Tuesday,
and Sir. Bayne. one Of the committee:
MR.. BAYNE-If the Germans came into
competition with you with their lower rates
Of wages could you compete with them On
YOUR one hundred and eighty varieties of
lamp shades outside Of this conr.trE?
MR.. MAcBErH--G, We me free material or
free trade such as England has, aud give
me the proper products of my labor, and
defy any com petition on the face of the
earth.
MR.. BAYNE--And pay your workmen the
wages you now pay themP
MIR. MACBETH will pay them more.
MR.. BAYNE-How much do you pay
them on the average?
MR., MAcBgTH-About four and half
dollars day.
MR. BAYNE-Do you claim that you
conld pay your men fcur and half day
if the Germans could manufacture the same
kind of chimney and employ the same
amount of labor at, say, two and quarter
day.
MR.. MACBETH-Yss, sir.
MIR. BAYNE-You could, under this OOH
dition, compete with the German manufac-
turerse
MR.. MAcEETH-Yes, sir.
The best protection to the manufacturers
is to admit the raw materials free. This
would enable them to compete successfully
with other countries, and extend their
market, which would justify Increased
amounts of manufactured products, and
give employment, at better wages, to a
greater number of employees, on full time;
| and the beauty of this kind Of protection
is, that it would benefit the great mass OF
| the consumers, as it would enable them to
get the products of manufactures at a
greatly reduced price, as they would be
made at less cost, aud sold at o less prics
This kind of protection would be beneficial
to all--ths manufacturers their employees,
and the consumers, embracing all classes
who use the products of the factories OF
whatever kind. There is no greater fal-
lacy than the argument that an increase q
the tariff increases the wages of the labor
er 1t does not increase his wages, but il
does increase the cost of what he has to
buy of the articles manufactured. If the
tariff did not enable the manufacturer to
get higher price for the articles hs manu-
features, he would not ask for a tariff.
Some few 1Danufacturers begin to see, like
MIR. Macbeth, that the best protection is to
admit the raw materials Free which would
enable them to compete successfully with
foreign manufactures in the markets of the
world, and by the increase of their sales to
increase the a,aou' Of profit. They could
afford to sell at cheaper rates, pot only be-
cause the cost of mquutacture would 5e
less. bat because the amount of their sales
would be more.

"If the southern people be only permitted

It is certain, to say the least, says the
Bait. Sun, that the farmer has not been
benefited by the tariff, which was to fur
nish him home market at good prices fol
his products. It has not done so in New Eng.
land, whore manufactures abound 1t has
not done 1t at the West. An Io~a CORES
pondept of the Boston Advertiser shogs
this fact very plsinly. He says: Anybody
in Iowa will eoncede that times are hard
The farmers generally are poor. The farm
er cannot sell his crops or products at q
profit. 1t requires from seventy TO one
hundred bushels of potatoes to buy an ordi
nary plough. As prices for oats 60 it re-
quires busbel to buy pound of sugar
The whole truth is, the bomo market is
disappointngly inadequate, and the foreign
market is cheap one, while the prices The
farmer must pay for manufactured articles
are extremely high in proportion. The fac
has been stated aud re-stated many times
and Though proven By experience has beer
az often denied, but no amount of sophistry
can Disguise it."
