1t Depends on the Child.

A man down east has invented q
washingmachine, the motive power of
which is a swing in which child is
placed. The child swings to and fro.
and the motion causes the machine to
run, with the result that the family
washing is done up in good shape AS
long as the child does not know that it
is doing any work it would seem that
this would be good scheme; but those
who are familiar with the nature of
children will readily see that as soon
as the child finds out that the swing is
connected with washing-machine it
will suddenly take strong dislike to
the amusement of swinging and get out
OF 1t by some excuse or another. Peck s.

FALSE PRETENSES.

Proteetionists For Thirty Years Have Been
Holding out the Promise of a Home
Market and Yet Fail to Reach 1t.
Our farmers are being continually
told that ''the home market is the best
market in the world The home mar.
ket is good, only there is not enough Of
it for our vast quantity of farm prod
ucts; and the home market is no better
than the foreign market in point Of
prices paid for staple farm products
The protectiOnists have been promisinc
for thirty years to build up homemar
ket which would consume everything
right here at home;" but at this late
day an increasing quantity of our farm
products must find market in FOREIGN
countries.
Our exports of canned beef during
the month of May amounted to 7,S75,-
8O7 pounds, valued at S647, ola against
4, 432, 361 pounds, valued at 1886, $50, in
the same month of 1890. For the seven
months ended May 81, 1891, canned
beef exports amounted to 81, 837, ,T94

month of 1890. The exports for the FIVE
months ended May 81, 1891, were val

The falling OF IN some Of these fig
ures was due solely to short cropsof
corn and wheat last year, and is there
fore but temporary. Corn and wheat
are now bringing prices which make
our farmers happy. But the main factor
in raising prices, aside from our own
shortness Of crops last year is the large
demand certain to come from Europe
for this years crops, owing to the IN
usually bad wheat crop there this sum-
mer. Already it is reported from New
York that freight engagements are be-
ing made with the great steamship lines
far out into the fall months for trans
portation of grain to Europe; and it IS
already predicted that Europe will take
more of our wheat and corn this year
than ever before.

Prices-TaISing Advantage of McKinley's
Higher Duties-Trusts and Protection
Hand in Glove, and Labor Is Not In 1t. -
Still another trust has been added to
the already long list. The latest is a
whip trust. The managers of this trust
got control of the rattan supply, shut
out all the small concerns, formed a
com mbination and whips are higher now
than ever before, with chance of a
rise in price as the stock grows scarce, y
one of the monopolists tells us. E'These

be, however. TO use the lash on their
own backs;" and, it may well be added,
on the backs of the McKinleyites who
voted the high protection which makes
the whip trust possible.
Nearly all whips are made of rattan,
covered with fax or leather. If they
are covered with flax they are dutiable
as manufactures of fax. The duty or,
such articles in the old tariff was 40
per cent ad valorem; but the McKin-
leyites raised this to so per cent.
Whips covered with leather were duti-
able at 80 per cent; but this gave place
to duty of 80 per cent under the
touch of the Mckinley hand. These
duties were, of course, imposed under
the pretense of better protection to do
mestic industry and as a guarantee of
better wages to American labor
The benefits of protection" can only
be realized by raising prices, and the
whip trust thoroughly understands
this. 1t is therefore perfectly idle for
the McKinleyite to pretend to be the
foe of trusts and com binations to. con
troll prices. The trust merely appro-
PIRATES what tb tariff makers give,
