when the excited individual was seen

Loudly muttcring to himself the man

4 GRANT FOR PRINCESS LOUISE
The radicals are wild over rumor
that it is intended to ask parliament for
asrant for Princess Louise of Schleswip
Holstein, grand daughter of Queen
Victoria, who fortnight ago was mar
ried to Prince Albert of Inhalt under
the auspices of the Queen. While the
brides thrifty GRANDMOTHER would
doubtless be glad to see the princess
provided for by parliament, it is
not at all likely that she would
brave public opinion by asking what
would unquestionably be refused, and
it is certain that Lord Salisbury would
never advise or content TO such request.
Nevertheless the suggestion has been
made in all seriousness, probably as a
''feoler.' and the Radicals are eager for
the verbal battle which the introduction
OF the matter in parliament would pre-
cipitate. In such an event nearly all
the Liberals and great many Tories
would join them in opposing the
scheme.

M,KINLEY,s COLD COMFORT.

AT the tariff banquet in Madison Square
garden Major Mckinley made a brief
speech, in which he said: "We will have
tariff so long as we have government.
If [ ever regretted that l was protection
list, that regret does not exist tonight.
am glad to belong to the party of such men
as WEBSTER, CLAY, LINCOLN, GRANT,
HAYES, CARRIED and HARRISON"
So far as our acquaintance with the utter
ances of the opponents of the war tariff
goes, we have never heard one of them in
innate that the tariff should be abolished.
But they do contend that the tariff shall
not discriminate against nearly all classes
of our people in favor of one-the protected
manufacturers, banded together in trusts.
Whether or not Mr.. MCKINLEY regrets
that he is protectionist, it seems certain
that the American people regret that la
mentable tact, and rebuked the protection
ist party by a million majority at the last
election
1t seems pity, too, that Mr.. MCKINLEY
never heard of the tariff doctrine taught
by the men whom he thus invokes as his
party leaders.
WEBSTER said if there be any such thing
as an American system''-a system which
we can claim to illustrate and advocate be-
fore the civilized world, it must be that of
Tree trade Half Of free trade is expressly
embodied in the constitution: mo tax or
duty shall be laid on articles exported
from any state" WEBSTER very naturally,
and as became a true American, objected
to unequal and discriminating duties on
imports, because that placed certain Amer
leans at disadvantage as compared with
others.
CLAY said, 81 too am a friend to free
trade, but it must be free trade of per-
fectreciprocity."
GRANT said: "Those articles which enter
into our manufactures, and are not pro-
duced at home, it seems to me should be
entered free. Those articles of manufac-
ture which we produce constituent part
of, but do not produce the whole, that part
which we do not produce should be entered
free also. l would instance fine woods,
dyes, etc. / would mention those
articles which enter into manufactures of
all sorts. All duty paid upon such articles
goes directly to the cost of the article when
manufactured here, and must be paid for
by the consumers. These duties not only
come from the consumers at home, but act
as protection to foreign manufacturers of
the same completed articles in our own and
distant markets.
GARFIELD said: 81 am for protection
which leads to ultimate free trade.n
HARRISON said, in 1888: 1--WE ought not
perhaps to reduce much now the taxes on
those three articles which 1 believe the
common concurrent consent and common
sense of all people agree should be the sub
iects of internal revenue-I mean whisky,
beer and tobacco
