There are some queer traits among

for her capacity as nurse, she left her
box and went over to neighbours rab-
bit warren, where she found O young

neck carmed it to her home. She has
fully adopted it, nursing it at the same
time with her kittens, but she can't un-
derstand why the young animal doesn't
play with her tail. as his foster sisters
do.
Gelston Mitchell. also Of Moodus, has
a cat which is even more odd than Mr..
Olmstead's. She has taken to her af-

Mitchell captured several weeks ago.
She allows the woodchuck to nurse with
the kittens, and the mother cat hcks
him and makes his toilet with the same
impartiality she exhibits toward her
own offspring.

THE TIN PLATE LIAR.
GETTING NEARER AND NEARER THE
END OF HIS ROPE.

Erect Of Few Welsh Immigrants-what
They Would Consume of Our Products.
All for the Good Of America-Good
Customers for Our Miners.
The Boston Advertiser (Rep. welcomes
the Welsh operatives that may be i'm
ported to run the American tin works
that the new tin duty will build up.
But was not the duty imposed for the
benefit of American laborers?-Evening
Post.
There is great deal Of what our con-
temporary calls Journalism" in the
above. 1t knows that there may be two
objections to the importation of 1aborers,
viz, when they are imported TO take
the place of other laborers already en-
ployed. or when they are likely to add an
undesirable element to our population.
No one can truthfully claim that the
Welsh are undesirable immigrants. They
nearly all talk the English language;
they send their children to our public
schools; they demand high wages and
quickly raise their standard of living;
they are peaceable, hard working and
hard fighting, too, If necessary, and are
in every way desirable. Nor can it be
claimed with any approximation of We
racity that coming here to make tin
plates, instead of continuing to make
them in Wales for this market, they take
any mans job OF employment away
from him, unless 1t is jobs Of some twen-
ty importing firms in this city.
II, on the contrary, all Of the 10000
workmen who are now walking around
and counting up what the workmen gets
out Of the "clean up Of great Free
trade effort in which he has assisted
were to come over here with their fami-
lies, say 100000 Of them in all, how
would the account stand with the Amer
lean laborers?
About every five people in this coun-
try require and have a house; this
would call for building some 10000 ad-
ditional houses There is mile of rail-
road to about every 400 people in this
country, and the addition Of 100000
people would justify the construction Of
$50 additional miles Of railroad, in the
operation and maintenance of which,
after 1t was built, some 1850 people
would find steady employment. In ad-
dition to these and other items, the 400,-
600 tons of timed plates we are now con-
suming would call for the mining and
transporting Of 1000, 900 tons Of iron ore
and nearly that amount Of coal and
limestone to produce the 100000 tons Of
pig iron required to make the plates for
timing. American tallow for dipping
and lumber for boxing would also come
into demand.
There is nothing In this that looks as
II American laborers would not have the
demand for their services increased.
And as the coming Of these Welshmen
implies american tin works that the
new tin duty will build up" their COM
ing will result ih keeping some s3O, ,OO0.-
600 in this country that we have been
sending across the sea yearly for timed
plates. So there will be more money in
the country with which to pay for labor.
To slightly paraphrase Adam Smith,
there We're two sets of labor employed
and two profits were made, only one of
which was American. Now two sets of
labor will be employed and two profits
will be made, both Of which will be

The republican party owes not lit
lit of its great success to the splendid
organization which 1t has intained
during long series of years-there is
nothing like presenting an unbroken
front to the enemy-but of late there
seems to be screw or two loose in the
party machine, and there are ominous
gaps in the front rank. Republican
senators have delivered speeches in
open senate, which If ever delivered
at all, should have been only spoken
in secret caucus. We shall not as
sumo the responsibility Of placing the
blame for such state of affairs upon
any one man or set of men, but we do
think that it is state of affairs which
might have been avoided, and which
must be avoided in the future, il the
party is to repeat in the future it's
great victories of the past. What
right have we to expect harmony in
the rank and file of the party when
our leaders, or the men to whom we
have right to look up as leaders,
are playing at skies and sevens. If
there Is any measure pending before
Congress upon which the party can
not be united, let it be abandoned;
1892 is too near for publicans to in
dulge themselves in forming or en-
couraging the formation of party fac
tons. We are for the success of the
republican party and the great sprin-
clples upon which 1t is founded, and
we place that success high above any
particular measure.
