Congressman La Toilette of Wis
consin scored a good point in favor
of the protective tariff when he said ::
ssThe democrats denounced the re-
publican party when in 1888 it placed
a duty on wire nails of four cents a
pound. The duty has stimulated the
production of wire nails, and to-day
they are being sold at ? 2-10 cents a
pound, or just a little more than one
half the duty imposed" Is the tar
iff a tax?

Can The G. A. r. Afford It?

AS the political canvass in the mat
ter of governor progresses there comes
to us more and more the information
that the Grand Army men are work
ing for Col. Woodbury.. A gentle
man in St. Johnsbury, not particular
ly interested in the governor matter,
writes us in business letter: 81
think the majority of republicans in
this town are for Page; but the Grand
Army men are doing their best to
to send Woodbury. delegates 1t is
we'll known fact that the organiza
ton which is strong in ST. Johnsbury,
is working hard for Col. Woodbury..
What is true of that place is true of
many others. The question that the
G.. A. R. men ought to consider is
whether this candidate is that man
who will make the best and most eff
cient officer for the place, not whether
he wears the G.. A. r. badge. When
the Grand Army comes to that place
where it throws it's combined influence
for one man, and votes practically
as a unit, it will have forgotten its
prime object and will soon fall into
merited disfavor.
The work of the Congressional sub
committee in Little Rock was COM
pleted yesterday, but the investiga-
ton regarding Clifton R. Breckin-
ridges right to the seat which he
holds is not yet finished. The testi-
monv taken in Arkansas has been
sufficient to show that the Second
District in 1888 was marked by the
most fragrant outrages and frauds,
and the fact that the Republican can
didate was assassinated in order to
prevent the success of his plan to un-
seat the beneficiary of the frauds is
established beyond doubt. The So
called "California theory has been
effectually punctured, although con-
elusive evidence as to who commit
mitted the foul murder has not been
secured. A number of witnesses
have vet to be heard in Washington.
Their testimony, it is understood,
will only tend to make it still more
clear that Mr.. Breckinridge's seat
should be declared vacant without
needless delay.

Deafness can't be cured by local applications, as
they can not reach the diseased portions Of the
ear. There is only way TO cure deafness, and
that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachain Tube When this tube
gets infamed you have a rumbling sound m,
perfect hearing, and when is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of deafness Caused by catarh) that can not
cure by taking Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir

The Morrisville Citizen editoriallY

why the Woodbury. organs did not
raise the issue of war records when
Dillingham; was a candidate in 1880 ;
also when Loveland Munson was
made Judge; and why these same pa
pers are now advocating Batchelder
for congressman in Stewards district.
All the men were born the same year
as was Page, and none of them shoul-
dered a musket. Not even echo has
answered these queries, so far.

"The Mckinley Tariff bill," said
Congressman Burrows of Michigan,
''was intended as a measure of pro-
lection from the enacting clause to
the closing paragraph. If there was
a single provision in it which, in its
workings, would inure it the benefit
of and foreign industry to the detri-
ment of our own, such a provision
was there by inadvertance and not by
design. If there was a section in the
bill which would bring disaster to
any American industry or paralyze
the arm of any laboring man in the
United States, such a section was
there by accident and not by design"

The st. nsbury papers state
that Caledonia county will present
the name of Hon. H. G. Ide as a
suitable and most worthy candidate
for Lieut.. Governor. We recently
spoke of Mr.. Ide as very fit candi-
date, and consider him one of the
ablest men mentioned for that DO
sition. The Republican says: Zone
of the younger men among the lead
ing Republicans of Vemont, Mr.. Ide
has yet had considerable experience
in public affairs and has become we'll
known through the State, and where
ever he is known his ability and force
of character have compelled recog-
milton and respect. Mr.. Ide has been
State Senator for two terms, serving
as chairman of the important COM
mittee on Judiciary, and at each ses-
sion he was universally recognized
as one of the ablest and most infiu-
entail members of the Senate. In
1888 Mr.. Ide was an influential mem
Der of VermOnt's famous delegation
to the Republican National conven-
ton. In his professional capacity,
Mr.. Ide is one Of the leaders of the
Vermont bar He is, moreover, a
scholar and a gentleman. He was
graduated from Dartmouth college
with one of the most brilliant records
ever made by student in that ven
erable institution, and through busy
life has kept up his studies and his
interest in scholarly things. Finally,
Mr.. Ide is man of brilliant ability
capable of filling with credit anv
office in the gift of the people of Ver-
mont"

The Arkansas woman into whose
house John NJ Clayton was carried
after he was assassinated, appeared
before the congressional committee
that is investigating the murder, not
to give any testimony that would help
to discover the assassin but to insist
she be paid thirty dollars for the dam
aoe done her carpets and to denonnce
Clayton's family because they have
not paid the bill. Perhaps if the COM
mite prolongs its stay the murderer
may appear with bill for his time,
trouble and ammunition, and if he
can get it before an Arkansas jury it
will be allowed.

organs have been scolding because
the Republicans in Congress did not
pass a tariff bill. Now they are all
howling because it is proposed to
s'railroad" the Mckinley bill through
the House after fortnight's debate.

General News items.

While the Lehigh Valley switch engine
No. 26I was drawing a train OF eight cars
from the Tiff farm into the city of Buf-
falo, May IL, it exploded without a mo-
ment's warning. Fireman Henry O'COn-
ner's body was blown 100 feet into the
air and fell a shapel9ss mass. The body
of Engineer George Pearl was found
about $50 feet east of the wreck. lie
was dead and the body terribly mangled.
Both men had homes in Buffalo and each
leaves a family. The cause of the explo-
sion is a mystery.
One of the most terrific storms that
ever visited Iowa swept over ID ubuque
May IL. For over four hours there was an
incessant glare of lightning and del
uge OF rain that filed the cutters and sew
ers to Overlooking. Seventeenth street
was washed out and party narrowly es-
capped death One of the horses attached
to the carriage was swept into the sewer
and carried to its mouth at the river.
Several buildings, including the new Ili-
nois Ceutral Railroad building, were dam
aged by lightning.
A special from Akron, Ohio, says
Darkness shut in so quickly after the tor
nado that tore through the southern part
of the city of Pitisburg, Pa, on Saturday
evening that not half an idea could be
gotten of tide ferceness or extent of the
terrible storm. Prof. Egbert of Buchtel
College who was out in the storm, cal
culated that it was travelling at the rate
of four miles minute, so that its track
of about mile and half through this
city was traversed in little more than 20
seconds. 1t moved in almost n straight
line through well settled part of the
city and scarcely Il foot of the mile and a
half but it is strewn today with splintered
house timbers, broken furniture, uproot-
ed trees and leveled barns and outhouses.

Very few influential papers in this
State prefer Woodbury. to Page as
candidate for governor. The two
leading Woodbury. organs are the
Burlington Free Press and the St.
Albans Messenger. The Free Press
is the Burlington organ and supports
Woodbury. naturally as a citizen of
that city. Burlington wants the earth.
The Messenger is run first in the in
terests of the Central Vermont r. r.
and secondly, it is edited by a per-
sonal friend of Col. Woodbury. whose
friendship and bases are peculiarly
strong. Take these two papers off
the list and there would be little left
of Woodbury. in the state press.

respects to the measure recently

"SEE HERE, RICE"

"See here, Rice, something must be done
to stop this exodus of capital from New
England. The South threatens to paralyze
our industrial prosperity. This Election
bill will call halt on Southern invest
ment, and that's why ! am urging it 80
strenuOusly." So Car Reed is reported TO
have addressed one Of the gentlemen who
have recently been engaged in placing
capital in the South. He wanted TO call a
halt on Southern investment, did he! lie
did not want New England's Industrial
prosperity to be paralyzed? Was he really
fool enough not to recognize the fact that
capital was coming South to be nearer
the raw material for manulactu-
rers; that the protective tarif
was prohibiting the importation OF
raw material, and that should the protec-
tive tariff not be done away with, the next
thing would be the gripping and paralysis
of Southern industry; that the same cause
would limit the value of Southern and all
American products by limiting the market
for them, and that consequently the people
of the whole country would suffer- lie GER
tainly was carrying protection to fine
point. The protective tariff having failed
to protect New England, he would cripple
the newest field of industry in the country
so as to make capital remain in New Eng
land. Again the Force bill has been eX.
planned. Again it is understood why
Henry Cabot Lodge called the tariff dead
issue. 1t threatened to make something a
dead issue in Henry Cabot Lodges neigh.

Diana should be despised ard her magnib-
cence should be destroyed whom all
Asia and the world worshippeth.'
These people, thereupon, fearing Tor
their source Of wealth, and for the great
temple Of Diana, particularly, though, Tor
their source OF wealth raised mighty shout,
and fun OF wrath cried, Great IL Diana OF
the Ephesians.v And when Paul would
have entered in unto the people, the dis
lciplcs suffered him not. The town clerk In
yestigated the uproar, and being himself
worshipper OF Diana, but not sharer IN
the profits Of the siversmith's craft, judi
ciously decided that Diana was able to take
care Of herself. and referred the populace to
the law and TO their deputies. He was not
an offensive partisan. Demetrius IS dead,
Paul is dead, and even the name OF the
town clerk Is not known. Where are the
EphesIansy
About twenty five years ago some modern
silversmiths began TO thrive among modern
Ephesians. They were not men who toiled
lover the forge or anvil. No, they reaped
the reward Of the actual smith. The latter
did the work. The former took the silver.
With a great deal Of craft they built up
their hollow goddess from frame OF iron,
and so bespangIed her with gold, silver,
Jewels, and costly attire that to the Ephe-
SLAMS she appeared all glorious without and
within. She, moreover, was so sparkling
and bright that the silyersmiths persuaded
the dazzled multitude that she actually
was giving money to them when they
handed her their tribute. so time passed,
and great reformer appeared in the land
Some of the disciples would have suffered
him not 10 90 in unto the people, and when
he did, some of them leaving him actually
help to swell the tumultuous cries OF the
Ephesians for their Diana. When this po-
litical Paul at last advanced, Alexander
Demetrius, surnamed Mckinley, reused his
fellows. lie particularly impressed them
with the fact that ''by this craft we have
our wealth." and, as an afterthought, allu-
ded strongly to the mighty temple which
they had builded around their goddess.
But many OF the people, led by the town
clerk, in this instance an offensive parti-
san, could not be persuaded by Demetrius.
They had at last discovered that tribute TO
the goddess had increased year by year (;
that their pockets had been emptied, and
that Diana has demanded their pockets
even. They called to Demetrius Behold
your temple is shaking. Its ramparts
and pinnacles have fallen, and its but
tresses lean outward. You and your
fellow-craitsmen have deceived and robbed
us, our wives and little ones; we shall pull
down the temple and destroy you and your
siversmths. We are no longer Ephesians.
We are the people"
| With mighty shout they rushed against
the temple, having chosen their deputies to
sustain them. Demetrius rushed for Pro-
lection TO the image Of Diana, and as the
structure toppled about the heads of him
and his fellows, some Of whom escaped,
Demetrius disappearing in the dust and
splinters, was heard to cry, "Great is
Diana"

GREAT is DIANA

"Protection Is stronger to-day than II
ever was, and 1t will continue TO grow in
favor. The Tariff bill, which was made
the issue during the campaign, was but
three and one-half weeks old when the cleo
tion occurred, and many Of its provisions
have not yet gone into effect. The bin was
misunderstood and shamefule misrepre-
sented.v
That these are not the words Of New
Euglander, where the protective policy
has wrought its work, is unnecessary &c
state. Thirteen Democrats elected in that
section are sufficient 10 deny IL. That they
are not the words Of a Southerner or a
Westerner is also denied by the returns
from the Middle. West, Northwest and
south. No, il is none Of these. But the
man who says ''protection is stronger To-
day than II ever was" is Major William
Mckinley, who is the author Of the greatest
monstrosity Of protection, but who will
not, by reason Of the votes OF the people,
be able TO prevent the destruction of his
false goddess. II Major Mckinley was
properly trained as youth be VIII, proba-

Several centuries ago great reformer
