Quebec for Annexation.

The Quebec Telegram comes out with
a square challenge to the two other
English newspapers published in that
city, claiming that its circulation is lar
ger than the combined circulation of its
two contemporaries. and defyiGg proof
thst the majority of its readers are not
in favor of political alliance with the
United States. Says the Telegram
I'VE know this because it is our bust
ness to keep posted on the opinions OF
our readers. We know it because we
read it as we run along the street. We
know 1t because the hand of commercial
decay rests heavily upon the city, and
the people look for relief to the enter
prise American capital would bring if
this Province was State in the Union.
We speak the living truth when we say
that the only time that Quebeeer
speaks with emphatic hopes about the
future of this city, is when he says, i
am an annexationistn Canadian politi-
cal issues are of course discussed with
the usual amount of acrimony; but if
you want to hear a Quebecer become
enthusiastic over politics, talk annexa-
ton to him. If be speaks to you as he
does to us, the chances are that he will
put vim into his utterance and tell you
that he wants the bars to be taken down,
and the sooner the better. He sees one
part of the city moldering IN decay.
He sees the people leaving for the Uni
ted States by every outgoing train. He
knows that the Interstate law has
forced hundred of Que6ecers who used
To spend the winter in the South to
strike their camps for good and pack
of, bag and baggage, to another cline.
He sees property depreciating IN value
yes, and that, too, by nearly one half
and now. to crown all, be sees the
Mckinley bill, and he hears wall from
the farmers, and vet we. we who hear
and zee these things day by day, are
told by some distant contemporary, and
told. too, with off-hand hauteur, that
we do not know what we say"

products of American mills out of for
eigu markets. now urge manufacturers
70 enter upon the worldwide trade
from which they have 50 long been ex-
cluded? Only one cent on the dollar
now stands to the favor of the European
manufacturer over bis competitor in
this country who may prefer to draw
his supplies from foreign sources-barely
enough to pay the cost Of entry and
clearance through the custom house.
And in connection with this fact, the
holowness of the reform" demand for
free raw materials is made apparent to
the most obtuse observer. While the
old law provided for a refund of ninety
per cent of the duty paid on free raw
materials when exported as part Of a
finished product, no one ever learned
the fact by listening to free-trade
attorneys Nor are they disposed to
concede any credit to the existing law

der similar conditions. They simply
ignore the fact, while straiDing their
vision TO discover some other point for
at k. under pretense of being satisfied
with something short of absolute free
trade.
But they will not be satisfied. for the
real fact is that the Golden Club and
other prime movers behind the con-
spiracy to open American markets to
unrestrained European competition, set
out with a determination to be content
with nothing short of that ultimatum;
and those who are serving as agents
to bring this about will not stop |
so long as the @gis of protection
accords to citizen of this country any |
privilege that is not to be
equally enjoyed by foreigners.

Determined to have Free
Trade.

The gun that has so long done service
from the ambush of free raw materials,
seems to have been pretty eflectually
spib ed by the passage of the new tariff
law. II free trade attorneys were candid
in their demands that the so-called raw
materials Of manufactures should be
placed on the non-dutiable list, it would
be but reasonable 10 expect from them
some word of communication for that
feature of the new tariff which practic-
ally comedies free raw materials for all
exported products, by allowing ON the
expectation Of such articles a drawback
equal in amount to the duties paid ON
the materials used. less one per centum
of such duties
Such is now the law. If inspired by
other motive than opposition to any and
all forms Of protection, why do not those
journals and orators who have all along
insisted that it was the tariff on foreign
woods, ores, woods, etc, that kept the

The Cash Has Vanished.

Richland Center Observer. w.
Southland, treasurer of the town of
Buena Viata. is the victim of bold
robbery which occurred last Thursday
night. Mr.. Southland has been collect
ing the taxes for his town at his resi-
dence in Gotham, and on the night of
the robbery had between $500 and $500
of the towns funds IN his possession.
Sometimes in the absence of Mr.. South
ard, bis wife attends to the business of
his office. which was the case on the day
proceeding the theft, he being away
from home and not returning till even
ing. The money in question was left
on table near a window, each suppos-
ing that the other had put the same in
safe place before retiring, and some
time during the night some thief or
thieves took the cash without even
having to enter the house. When the
depreciation was discovered in the
morning, suspicion Immediately rested
on strange man who had taken dinner
there the day before. The man was
well dressed and, it appears, had
walked up from Lone Rock on the
morning of that day to take recon-
noissance of the village. After looking
about some he inquired of citizen for
a place to take dinner and was directed
to Southard's, who sometimes open
their doors to transients. e While sitting
in the kitchen he could look through
the open doorway leading to the sitting
room, where the taxes were collected,
and see the money there on the table.
After dinner the stranger paid his bill
and disappeared in the direction of
Lone Rock, where he was seen in the
evening. 1t is supposed that he re-
turned during the night and took the
money. The pocketbook and tax re-
ceipts which were taken with the money
were found on the opposite side of the
street from the scene of the theft. Dis
patches were sent to the neighboripg
towns to arrest any suspicious char
acters, and four mengwho came into
Spring Green from the.west and bought
keg of beer, which they took short
distance from the village and got drunk
on, were arrested by the authorities.
One of the quartet escaped, and of the
other three none proved to be the same
man who dined with the gSouthards.
Mr.. Southland is in only moderate
circumstances and the loss of the money
will badly cripple him financially.
Great indignation prevails in the town.

Onondaga Receivers his Sight.

Onondaga, Milton 1oung's famous
sire of race horses at McIra' hiana farm,
has recovered his sight. Some wears
ago the horse was afflicted with pecul-
lar disease with not only rendered him
unmanageable but made him a very
dangerous animal to groom, and three
men nearly lost their lives from his vic
business. The veterinarians said the
horse would have to submit to an opera
ton and be blinded or killed outright
Young consulted other authorities and
they gave him the same advice. Wish
ing. if possible, to save the hCrse, Young
reluctantly consented. The great Onon-
daga was led out and chloroformed
Sharp needles were pushed into his
eyes. and IN this way the horse was
blinded. A cry about cruelty to ami
mails went up, and a number of people
predicted that bad luck would follow
Young, his race horse and his establish
ment. The horse not only became a
great sire but was as gentle as a lamb
The operation was performed nearly
seven years ago and since that time the
horses eyes were constantly bqndaged.
Now the horse has rovcovered his eve
sight and the instinct which Onondaga
showed is almost as wonderful as the
restoration If his sight. He constantly
rubbed the bandages against his box
until Ire finally made an opening for his
eyes then ceased to try to rid himself of
headgear. His eyes were weak at first,
but they are now strong and the horse
sees as well as be ever did. -Says the

In the January ST. NichoEas-the
second of the holiday numbers Of this
magazine - Charles Dudley Warner
calls up the thousands of its readers TO
near "a Talk about Reading" which is
delivered with all the earnestness of q
true humorist when talking of graver
matters.
One of the pleasant surprises which
the editor of the 81. Nicholas is fond of
Offering TO subscribers, is an unannoun-
ced llttlelfanciful serial, Elites Visit to
Cloudland," by Francis V. Austen, with
just the sort of pictures that children
like, and plenty of them, too. What
could be more delightful, for instance.
than Ellie and E-ma-ji-na-shUn seated
before the enormous dining-table in
''Elhe's Castle" ?-Or the quantity kind
figure of old E-ma- ii-na-shun himself,
as he steps from the fireplace with his
courtly bow? Even though this serial
may not attain quite the success of
'Alice in wonderland" the children
will lind much more pleasure ia it
and. after all, that is what such stories
are for.
One of the more temporary attract
ions, there is a Christmas Story by
Roswell Smith, illustrated by George
Inness, Jr.; poem by Celia Thaxter,
funny pictures by Bensell; a short but
complete article on Michael Angelo by
Alexander Black. illustrated by the
frOntispiece-the statue of artists by
Zocchi; a jingle with numerous illus
trations by Brenon. and other contri-
buttons, perhaps not inferior in merit to
some of those named.
