Minneapolis Larger Than Paris.

The existing Paris covers 19, ,275 acres,
or about thirty square miles, while met
ropolitan London, with 1000, 900 popula-
ton, contains lis square miles, and Chi
cago provides an area about as extensive
for 1, 100000. The average distance from
the center of Paris to the circumference
is only three miles. Minneapolis, with
only 165, 900 people, has municipal area
more than twice as large as that of Paris.
Almost the entire population of Paris is
housed in the flats of tenement struc-
lures averaging from four to five stories
in height.
According to the revised figures of the
census of 1886 there were nearly 70, ZOO
houses in Paris, and the average number
of people in house was about thirty.
In the old ACCOMPLISHMENTS of the inner
Paris there are probably about 10000
houses, accommodating about 1000, 900
people.
For total contrast in the plan of
house construction we have only to cross
the channel and to examine London,
where we find an average of about eight
persons to house for the whole metrop-
oils. But the people of Paris are better
housed, all things considered, than those
of London. A population of $500, 900
within a circle whose radius is only three
miles is certainly very dense, but it must
be remembered that Paris is many
storied city.-Dr. Albert Shaw in Cen
tury.

am protectionist because all duties
protect, directly or indirectly, just to the
extent of the duty levied; because pro
lection is a necessary result or conse-
quence of all tariffs; because tariff for
revenue only never existed and in the
nature of things never can exist, and be-
cause to be against protecting duties Is
to be against all duties, that is, in favor
of absolute free trade.
2. l am protectiOnist because duties
on imports are the least obnoxious, least
burdensome modes of raising revenue,
three-ffths of all the revenues of the
United States for hundred years hav-
ing been derived from such duties, and
because the largest aids to domestic in
dustries, as well as the largest revenues,
have been derived from distinctivelv
protective tariffs.
3. l am a protectiOuist because
would not leave the consumer class, to
which 80 per cent. of the people belong,
at the mercy of the foreign manufac-
turer, but would pit the home manufac-
turer against the foreign, in the interest
of the consumer, because the livelier
the competition the lower the prices to
the buyer and because industrial inde-
pendence is more desirable in war and
in peace than dependence.
4. I am a protectionist because it is
better to tax foreign luxuries than our
own lands; European wares, than Amer
lean products. am for protecting
duties because the three men who have
done the most to promote the permanent
welfare of the United States, Washing
ton, Lincoln and Grant, were protection
lists; because Americas foremost finan-
ciers, Hamilton, Chase and Sherman,
were protectionists, and because the
three most popular living Americans to-
day, Blaine, Depew, and Mckinley, are
all champions of continent-wide protec-

Sighs ON BRIDGES.

The front stoop offers facilities for
courtship, and among the young people
of Brooklyn the front stoop is popular
summer institution. The Brooklyn bridge
is bridge of sighs. 1t is the high bridges
over the Central tracks in upper New
York, however, that are most ardently
worked for this purpose.
An evening stroll that takes the OBJ
server over one of these bridges will show
dozens of couples leaning against the
rails and apparently investigating the
myriad tracks and colored signal lights
and passing trains below. A manly arm
will be withdrawn from slender waist
as you pass, to be stealthily slipped back
again within the moment. The skirmish
of hearts is going on there while you are
asleep or at the theater. 1t is the engage
ment ground of the poor and lowly who
live in tenements and have no front gate
and no doorsteps. For them the bridge
on these warm nights is dish of ice
cream with two spoons in it.-New York
Herald,

GRAINS OF GOLD.
an cool. anger is not argument.

Keep cool; anger is not argument.
Men are what their mothers made them,
A beautiful thought is a mental sun
beam.
The thing done avails; not what is said
about it.
Anxiety never yet successfully bridged
over any chasm.
1t is great obstacle to happiness to
expect too much.
Health lies in labor, and there is no
royal road to it but through toll.
He is fool who cannot be angry; but
he is a wise man who will not be.
Those who make the worst use of their
time, most complain of its shortness.
We are far more likely to catch the
vices than the virtues of our associates.
We never injure our own characters so
much as when we attack those of others.
In all talk about persons, it is their
merits that we should hasten to disclose.
Satire often proceeds less from ill-na
ture than from the desire of displaying
wit.
Attention is the stuff that memory is
made of; and memory is accumulated
genius.
Necessity is the only real sovereign in
the world, the only despot for whom
there is no law.
If more care were given to character,
less attention might be demanded by
the reputation.
Good-humor may be said to be one of
the very best articles of dress one can
wear in society.
The more one endeavors to sound the
depths of his ignorance, the deeper
the chasm appears.
The hate which we all bear with the
most Christian patience is the hate of
those who envy us.

Sat Upon by an Ostrich

A gentleman had theory that any
creature, however savage, could be sub
dued-'q 'quelled," as he said, by the hu-
man eye. One day he tried to quell one
of his own ostriches, with the result that
he was presently found in very pitia-
BILE predicament, lying fiat on the
ground, while the subject of his ex-
pertinent jumped up and down on him,
occasionally varying the treatment by
sitting upon him. Doubtless it was
safer to lie down than to stand up to be
kicked, but to be sat upon as if one
were an egg must have been indeed hu-
miliating.-London Spectator.

Gold Taken Out of Circulation.

The very agitation in favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver is doing
the finances of this country great in
jury. If it should prevail, If policy
SO clearly suicidal were adopted by our
Government, gold would certainly be at
a premium. This all bankers believe
and all unite in prophesying monetary
distress in the event of Major McKin-
ley's defeat. Already in anticipation of
the possibility of such disaster the
Eastern bankers are beginning to hoard
up gold. For instance the Fourth
National bank, of New York, is now
loaning money silver and silver certifi-
cates) WITHOUT INTEREST on condition
that the principal be paid in gold. If gold
would not be worth more in the event of
a Democratic victory-it is apparent
these money-lenders do not believe it.

The Beneficiaries of Protection.

"In no event can the growth of large
fortunes be laid to the charge of the pro-
tective policy. Protection has proved a
distributor of great sums of money; not
an agency for amassing it in the hands
of the few. The records of our savings
banks and building associations can be
appealed to in support of this statement.
The benefit of protection goes first and
last TO the men who earn their bread in
the sweat of their faces. The auspi
cious and momentous result is that never
before in the history of the world has
comfort been enjoyed, education ac-
quired, and independence secured by 50
large proportion of the total population
as in the United States of America

The farmer doesn't want any more
farmers; he wants more mouths to feed,
more men who do not produce from the
soil, but who earn money in the shop,
and he wants them as near the field of
production as he can get them. The
closer you can bring the field of produc-
tion to the field of consumption the
better it will be for both producer and
consumer. Ask the farmer whether he
would rather have another farm beside
him or factory, and he will take the
factory.

PLEASURE is to woman what the sun
is to the flower; if moderately enjoyed,
it beauties, it refreshes and it improves;
if immoderately, it withers, deteriorates
and destroys. But the duties of domes-

tirement, and calling forth all the sensi-
bilities of the female, are perhaps, as
necessary to the full development of her
charms, as the shade and shower are to
