And then for their married life was young
With Joyous hearts they sat and sung
Until, as around the clock hands spun,
She said with smile that the bird was DONE
And he laughed aloud, and his Joy was great,
For his stomach told that the hour was late.
And he kissed his wife and he cried in glee
At the fine old bird that was ten pounds three,
And said, II will cut him now in two"
And took his knife that was bright and new
And hacked away for an hour or so,
Till his blade got dull and his movements slow:

A THANKSGIVING INCIDENT.

Right up To- the market stall strobe he,
And bought bird that was ten pounds three.
Then quickly home to his wife he sped.
And told her all that the man had said
OF how to pick and stuff and cook.
And SO with loving hand she took
That tough old bird that was hard and gray.
And into the oven she slowed him away.

And then, with prayer and moments rest,
He took off his coat and then his vest.
And hacked away till twilight came,
And his arms were sore and his back was lame.
And the hours wore on and the weeks sped by.
And still, with n sunken cheek and eye,
He worked away. and his wife sat there.
With patient face. in the same old chair,
Until one day. as his knife blade broke,
And his wthered frame sank down. she spoke,

one cent pound. The price Of wire nails
That year was ten cents pound. In 1877
they fell to $50 cents pound in 1878 to
800; in 1879 to 1876; in 1881 they rose to
1888; in 1882 to 1872; and for the next two
years they remained about stationary, being
in 1888 8.35 cents pound. Congress then
raised the duty to cents per pound, and the
Price the next year fell to 7.44 cents per
pound; the next year to COG; the next 10
5.06; the next to 3.S1; the next to 2.96. In
the light of this record, what becomes OF the
Argus's claim that the farmer has to pay $50
per cent. more for wire nails on account of
the protective tariff? When the protection
of this article was begun it sold at 10 cents
per pound the price has fallen from that
day to this under the effect of the competition
brought about by the protective tariff, and
today they are only 2.S5 cents a pound.
Supposing the Democratic policy of tariff
for revenue only had been pursued In regard
to wire nails, what would have been the
condition Of things today? Simply this:
we should have had no wire nail industry In
this country, and we should have been
compelled to buy all our wire nails of for
eigners, with the result of having to paw the
price they demanded. And the history of
wire nails Is the history of almost every
other article whose manufacture has been
Quilt up In this country by means of the
protective tariff. The price of such articles
has almost invariably been diminished by
reason Of the competition created. But for
the protective tariff the farmer most likely
would be paying 10 cents pound for wire
nails today: at any rat, he would be paying
far more for them than he does now.

1t is good deal with Sunday campmeet-
ings as with band concerts. II properly
conducted they are lot per Sc Ubiquitous 1t
is certainly not wicked to preach the gospel
in the open air on Sunday, neither do we
believe it is wicked to play piece Of music
appropriate to the day on Sunday. Yet in
directly both may do harm, and observation
constrains us to say that the former may be
productive of quite as much harm as the
latter. The trouble with Sunday camp
meetings is that.a great lmany of the people
who go to them go there to scoff, and very
few Of them ever remain to pray. That is to
say they 20 to the campmeeting not to listen
to the preaching; but to have good time on
the outskirts. Comparatively few of the
crowds that seek them ever get within range
Of the speakers voice. Sometime ago 1t was
proclaimed from a Portland pulpit that
clergymen were SO lifted up as to be able to
discern perils which the carnal mind cannot
discover. Without denying the truth
of this as a general proposition, we
are bound to say that the honest
opinion of the carnally minded with re-
gard to the influence of the Sunday camp
meeting is likely to be more correct than
that Of the spiritually minded, because while
the latter are likely to cOnfne their atten-
ton to the prayer and praise going on IN the
inner circle, the carnally minded are apt to
get into the outskirts and see what is going
on there. And we are strongly Of the opin-
ion that if the carnally minded who have
attended Sunday campmeetings could be got
to express their honest opinion of their
moral influence it would be that they did
more harm than good.

The Mississippi whites have succeeded in
DISTINGUISHING most of the blacks by putting
provision in the constitution which re-
quires as a prerequisite for voting the pay

payment of poll tax as a prerequisite for
voting as blow to the poor man quite out
