ONE FLAG-oNE CoNTRY.

The sons Of st. George at Butte, set
= good example when they excluded
from a recent procession all flags ex-
cept the stars and stripes. They de-
serve the thanks Of the whole country
for their good taste, their good sense
and their patriotism. The Italians Of
New York City have asked that the
sta udsrd Of Italy should float over the
city hall on the anniversary Of Joseph
Mazzini's birthday. A resolution
has been submitted 70 the Brooklyn
bOs I'd Of aldermen, providing that af-
ter June let, 1891, no colors except
those Of the nation, the state or the
municipality should be raised on any
public building in Brooklyn. The
resolution is an eminently proper one
and IT is TO be hoped that such a rule
may be established in every corporate
town in the cauntry. II private indi-
viduals will insist on displaying, in
season and out Of season, emb.ems Of
foreign nations Ut o~f~natiOns or Gun
tries which have no political exist
ence, let them show their lack of
taste and Of good sense ia their indi-
vidusl capacity. This is a free u
try, but on all public buildings
school houses-let there be tut n
fsg displayed, the stats and stripes.

Received a. a Private Individual


One of the authors of ''The Car and
His People" gives the following instance
Of TOlstoi's independence of thought
and action:
General Loris Melikof had been given
such u~nbounded power to act against
the nihilists that as he said, he was viz
tually created vice emperor. He dis
covered in the course of his official in
vestigations that one of the leading nj
hilist chiefs was in the habit of visiting
TolstOL and one day Aelikof himself
went out to the ~novelist's country
house. Before the visitor had an
nounced himself TOlstoi recognized him
and said:
You are Loris Melikof. Do you
come to see me officially or as a private
mani If you come officially here are
my keys. Search, open everything.
You are free to do So"
Il do not come officially" replied
Melikof.
Very good, answered Tolstoi, and
calling two stalwart servants he said 70
them, Throw this man out Of the
house,
The order was obeyed to the letter,
and MelikefT dared not seek redress.

THE True MAN ABOUT TOWN.

He Isn't a ROuBder, but a True Bohem.
ian, Undecided by Surroundings.
The New Yorker who is pointed out
as a man about town." said a club
man, lis, if he really deserves the IL
tie, a pretty clever fellow. Very
often the name is misapplied, and a
man who is a familiar figure in the best
known barrooms and in non-respectable
resorts. who is properly a rounder in
the worse sense of that term, is con-
founded with the bright and interest
ing man whose intelligence and good
taste place him far above the man who
is compared with him.
The nan about town is properly 9
Bohemian of the highest class. He
never seems out of place, whether he
be in a Fifth venue drawing room OF
in a Water street dance hall. He Is
never contaminated by his surround.
ings, whether these be the snobbish.
ness and affectation of the Angloma-
MACS or the unreserved coarseness Of q
lot Of Fourth ward toughs. He looks
at everything from the standpoint OF
the thorough cosmopolitan man who
understands that all sorts make up the
world. and who i DESTROYS of knowing
everything that is Of human interest

He really isn't, and can be as jolly az
any untamed school boy. He is al
ways the best and most interesting Of
companions, and the least egotistical.
such is the true man about town,
and if the average man would fall in
his tracks for a few days only he would
realize how much there is in this big
city and how much enjoyment can be
gotten out Of it by the inquisitive citi
zen. The man about town may be a
millionaire, an artist. a merchant. q
newspaper man, or anything else, pro
vided he has the instincts Of his genus.
The artist and the newspaper man
have naturally more opportunities to
develop in this direction than men in
more prosaic walks of life, but the
keenest reporter may never become a
mar about town nevertheless, because
he may lack some necessary element in
his makeup.
Men about town usually recognize
each other at first sight, and there l.
always a bond of sympathy between
them. They naturally meet frequently
in travelling through the highways and
byways Of the town, and, curious,
though 10 may seem, they all strike
about the same places. Being con
stantly on the hunt for new features Of
city LIE. they come upon a new thing
at very nearly the same time. II, how

REBATES AND RECIPROCITH.
The Only Feature OF the New TariR law
That Has Any Friends

-
That Has Any Friends
A group of Pennsylvania manufac-
turers is entitled TO credit for the most
completely logical disem bOvelment OF
the Mckinley tariff which has yet been
performed In a campaign circular for
republican use several York (Pa-) man
ufacturers have Joined in the following
statement:
We believe that the Two provisions in the
new tarin for rebare OF niisety-nine per cont
on imported materials for manufacturers sE-
ported and for a reciprocity with other coun-
tries in the dissimilar products peculiar 20
each anOrd Us much greater advantage iH
foreign markets than We could get by free
Yet how does the rebate clause work.
Take the familiar article of tin plate.
The largest single consumer of tin
plate in the United States is the Stand
ard Oil Company. Under the Mckinley
tariff it is to continue to get its tin
plate from abroad for export purposes
practically free of tax If it imports
say one hundred pounds of tin plate to
make its cans it pays the custom house
a tax of two dollars and twenty cents
As soon as those cans are sent abroad
with oil the custom house pays back
to the Standard Oil Company the rebate
of ninety-nine per cent of the tax, or
two dollars and eighteen cents It pays
only two cents tax in the end If it
sells the oil IN this country it does not
receive any re bate and the cost OK
manufacture is increased by two
dollars and eighteen cents. We pre-
sumo the company gets this out OF those
who use the oil
II the same amount of tin We're inn
ported for dairy purposes athome there
would be no rebate, and the full two
dollars and twenty cents has to be paid
into the custom house. Does the for
eign manufacturer pay the duty? If
so, then the rebate of ninety-nine per
cent. of it to the Standald Oil Company
is an understandable bonus from the
treasury. If the rebate clause OF the
Mckinley tariff works at all, it shows
first that the tariff is a tax on the home
consumer, and second it enables for
eigners to buy our goods at a much less
price than we are allowed to buy them
ourselves.
Reciprocity is republican policy, re-
mark these manufacturers. Yet all
there is to reciprocity is the promise OF
| the United States to another countrys
We will give you free trade if you viii
| give ms free trade. Reciprocity pro-
] poses to accomplish piecemea1 the same
! result for which the Golden clui$ was
organized, the complete establishm emit
| of free trade among nations. 1t is the
only feature OF the new tariff law
which seems now to have any friends

RUSSIA and JEW.
One of the Cars Diplomats
States His Case.
THE JEW IS NOT PROSECUTED,
Ho Says, but has Certain Exemptions
Sir John Macdonald Fights Death at
Terrible Odds-Africans Oppose Portu-
grese on Account of Their Complexion.

LONDON, Juno An attache of the
Russian legation in this city, in an in
terview, said: 1.-The action of Russia in
regard to the Jews has been much mis-
interpreted. No now law whatever has
been passed affecting that race, and, of
course. no new law is being enforced.
jewish artisans and others belonging to
tho Glasses not specially exempted by
the law knew that they were violating
law when they took up their residence
outside the Jewish pale. They were
warned months ago that they must go
back to the pale. What is the pale? In
extent it is larger than any European
country. excepting Russia. There is
ample room there Tor all the Jews. The
car has not banished a single Jew.
Those Who choose to leave Russia in
stead Of going to the palo have been
permitted to do SO, on certain condi-
tions, one of which is the payment of
their debts, or at least the saiisfaction
Of their creditors. The Russian govern-
n.ent has also exempted all such
from the emigration tax Of 100 roubles,
a favor not extended to Russians in gem
eral. Therefore the statement that the
car is banishing Jews is false. They
are simply being required to comply
with law as to residence with which
they havs been all acquainted and
which they deliberately violated. !"
Meanwhile the fugitives from Russia
continue to pour into Germany, and
many of them are stranded in the cities,
where they eagerly take any work that
is offered. The relief committee in
Germany has already found its resources
more than strained by the demand pom
it, and additional appeals have been
made to rich Jews and others in Vienna,
London and Paris. There is a proposi-
tion in Germany to settle large colonies
of Jews on the downs of east Prussia,
which the government is engaged in ra-
claiming. 1t is found difficult to obtain
German colonists for that bleak region,
and, if the Prussian authorities consent,
thousands Of Jews might get a start in
life there.
