The editors of the big free trade
newspapers, of which the New York
Herald is the most prominent, should
try to make their editorial and news
columns come nearer together, If they
wish to make any converts. The 9TH
er day the Herald printed a half col
umn editorial about the Mckinley tariff
law having shut us out from the pro-
ducts OF the world, and right on the
next page was a news item referring
to the Spring trades among the New
York merchants, which stated that
the iInportations were much larger
than ever before and that business was
booming. 1t is nonsense for any paper
to misrepresent the new tariff law. II
by the time the Presidential election
rolls around the law shall have proved
itself bad the republican party will
have to shoulder the blame, just as It
expects to be credited with the ben
efits of the law.

Everybody in this busy age appreci-
ates the value of current history and
tries his best 40 keep in touch with re.
cent events, with those things which
are happening under his own nose and
which are the results of the --latest ac-
tivity and thought. The newspaper
strives to supply this popular need for
the general current intelligence, but
has often to be hastily swallowed be-
tween sips of coffee at the baeak of
day and sips of tea in the evening.
The occupied man of affairs has to con-
tent himself with hasty glimpse at
the days;hews, frequently losing the
connection of events and finding him
self unable to sum up the real value
of the various world happenings. The
Detroit EUening Ne'oS has realized this
difficulty and with characteristic enter
prise has sought to remedy it. There
is now in the press handsome maya
zine, ''The Quarterly Register of Cur
rent Events" in winch the NeDS has
digested this mass of intelligence for
its As, 600 readers and for all others
who certainly viii eagerly avail them
selves of the valuable volume. This
first number, which is promised early
in February, contains q digest of the
worlds history for 1890, compact but
appreciatiye epitome of all the essen
tiai events of the entire globe during
the year just ended. Those who have
read their daily papers carefully will
obtain in this latest of the NeUs pub
lie benefits their first clear insight into
the really important events Of the year.
The magazine will ornament any book
shelf, and those who secure the vari-
Gus issues quarterly, will have In their
library an exact, carefully condensed
and yet appreciative history Of the
day,

The sudden death of Secretary Win

which has lost one OF It's greatest men.
and perhaps the most able financier of
the age. Besides this, in every place

whether public or private, no breath
of suspicion or wrong purpose has ev-

future historians will write of him as
a grand example of man. patriot
and statesman.
