That our country Is making enormous
progress in nearly all lines of indust- Y
no one doubts. As to the causes of this
progress there is a radical difference of
opinion. The protectionists hasten to
claim it as the natural and inevitable re-
suit of their policy of protection to
American industry-not seeing that such
a claim does little honor to American
enterprise and American inventlveness,
and overloolls entirely our vast resources,
which are not equaled by those of any
other country on earth
We make progress, but it is as Edward
Atkinson expresses 1t, y strong man can
run, although he has pebble in his shoe.
Suppose some Rip Van Wrinkle of the
Middle Ages-a time when steam was
unknown-shOuld now wake up on board
of one of our magnificent ocean steam
ers. He sees the shores rapidly receding
behind him, although the vessel is steam
ing directly in the teeth of the wind. The
fact puzzles our Rip Van Wrinkle. He
has never seen a snip moving directly
against the wind, and yet he has never
seen vessel propelled by any other than
wind power. Hence he Is sure that wind
power is still the only power that can
propel ship, although ne must admit
that the ship is steering straight against
the wind.
In his inexperience of the great strides
which modern enterprise and invention
have made he oyerlooks the throbbing
engine which is forcing the vast bulk
forward and persists in his antiquated
notion that in the same way the wind is
getting i'll its work.
Thus with the Rip Van Wrinkles of
protection. They are sure that only the
wind Of protection can propel the ship
Of state. They forget the mighty motive
power-our broad acres of wheat and
corn, our rich mines and forests, our in
ventiveness and enterprise which are
driving the ship Of state to its port.
The protectionists are curious folk

Pretty WAYS of Serving Fruit.

Tastefulness in preparing and presenting
fruit for the table makes 1t doubly deli
cious. Muskmelons cut in half and thor
oughly chilled on ice before serving are
tempting and much used as the first break
fast course on hot mornings. Canteloupes
ought not, however, to be kept in a refrig-
orator with milk and butter, as they give
bad flavor to these latter. In the country
a good way Is TO tuck them away in the
grass over night, as the falling dew gives
them freshness and crispness for breakfast
Large, fresh, juicy peaches should not he
Clipped up into little bits, but cut, after
peeling, into two or three large, luscious
looking pieces. Sprinkle granulated sugar
over them and half freeze them in the
freezer, which will take about an hour.
Just before serving take them from the
freezer and sprinkle on a little more sugar:
serve in glass dish.
n very pretty way to serve orange or
lemon ice is to mold it in halves of orange
peel.

M'kINLEY'S WHIP TRUST.
Combination to Put Up Prices-McKin-
Iey's Helping Hand.


ley's Helping Hand.
We have a brand new Mckinley
trust, trust of the whip manufacture
ers. Mckinley got in the work of his
fine protective hand last fall in the du-
ties on whips; and now the manufactur-
ers of whips have combined to enjoy
McKinleyism. A very natural thing to
do; for shrewd business men do not en-
gage in manufacturing industries for
the good of the dear country, but to fill
their own pockets.
The whipmakers do not understand
what protection means if it does not
mean higher prices. They know of no
other way to realize what Major McKin-
ley calls the "benefcences" of protec-
ton than through higher prices. Hence
it is announced that whips are already
higher now than ever before, and one of
the monopolists adds, with chance of
rise in price as the stock grows scarce"
This enterprising infant trust has pro-
vided, moreover, that stocks shall run
scarce" The trust got control of the
rattan market and shut of the smaller
indispensable material. Without rattan
whips cannot be made; and with the
smaller whip factories closed up and
their workmen out of employment,
where does labor come in for its portion
of the blessings which were to follow
Mckinley's increased duties ON whips?
Labor simply gets left once more, and as
usual a grasping monopoly pockets the
tariff plums.
The Whip trust is Mckinley trust.
Under the old tariff whips covered with
leather were taxed in general "basket
clause" at 80 per cent; but this basket
clause" of the leather schedule was
pushed up by Mckinley to 50 per cent.
Most whips, however, are covered with
fax, and here Mckinley got in more of
his basket clause" work, by which
whips of this kind We're made dutiable
at % per cent, in place of the old duty
of 40 per cent.
The Mckinleyites have no right to
condemn the Whip trust. This trust,
like all the tariff trusts, is simply a
means by which to harvest the tariff
plums. The purpose of protective
tariff is to enable protected interests to
charge higher prices for their goods,
since this is the only possible way in
which protection can protect. But a
trust seeks to bring about precisely the
same result.
The trusts themselves understand per
fectly that they are working to accom-
plsh, by combination, exactly the same
thing that protection aims at by so
called legal methods. President Have
meyer, of the sugar trust, blurted out
this kinship between protection and
trusts last year when certain high tariff
organs Were assailing that great mo-
nopoly. Here are the frank and honest
words of the sugar king:
The great cry of one Of the great
parties is for protection-that is, they
cry for it loudly during campaigns But
when we proceed to give ourselves some
protection a howl is raised. They de-
mand protection for the industries.
When an industry protects itself it is
said that it is illegal"

FASHIONS IN WALL PAPER.
New Ideas and Artistic Patterns Describe,
by Decorator and Furnjsher

New Ideas and rtistic Patterns Described
by Decorator and Furnisher.
The dado of wall paper is little used at
present, and is not needed except in large
rooms with high ceilings.
A deep wainscoting of hard wood or a
movable hanging fastened by hooks To a
rail or molding is honest and serviceable,
and should he employed when such hori-
zontal division of the wall space is desira-
BILE
The frieze still remains in favor and re-
tains its place in nearly all schemes of wall
decoration. It's width depends, of course,
on the height OF the room. and with the
dado or wainscotiug it aids in modifying
the unnecessary height of the ordinary
modern room. The lowering of the ceiling
in many of the new houses will have the
effect of narrowing these finishing bands
into the old fashioned borders, or of dis
placing them altogether
Where natural forms in decoration are
desired, freze of flock paper, with bold
ly painted design, may be used above the
door spaces in panels. \ trailing spray of
wild roses on ground of soft yellow in
clining to brown, great punches of Grim
son and amber tinted roses on a field OF
turquoise blue, or dull gold ackground,
with stalks of tall red lilies, may be used
with excellent effect.
In many Of the finest patterns lilac
effects are introduced. lilac being a fash
ionable color
Another departure in the present sea
sons goods are the new enclosing effects
in silk goods. In one range of papers the
ground is embossed with daisy pattern;
in another the ground is a minute repre-
sentation of combed work, and in another
line of papers the ground is heavily en-
bossed to represent burlap.

Safety Apparatus for Mine Cages.

A greatly improved safety apparatus for
miners cages has been introduced. A
current of electricity is conveyed down the
hauling rope to four electromagnetic,
which sustain the gripping cams. While
The current passes the cams are kept away
from the guides, but directly the rope
breaks and the current is cut off the cams
Immediately grip the guides and so sus-
tain the cage. The. rope is, to all intents
and purposes, the ordinary hauling rope,
except that it has two insulated copper
wires in the hemp core.-New York Tele-

Naming tho War Ships.

Nearly o dozen vessels OF the new navy
have local habitation but no name. Thoy
are under construction at the various yards,
Government or private, but most Of them
are known thus far only by numbers. Some
may possibly DO thought still too little ad-
vanced to have names selected for them:
and yet the three great battle ships Massa-
chusctts Indiana. and Oregon received
theirs almost as soon as they were con-
trnctcd for. At oil events. many new vessels
have been waiting q long time for names,
and perhaps, In some cases. the reason Is
that tie Flfty-lirst Congress was expected
W p.ss bill for altering the present system
Of naming and rating.
IN this. however. it failed ard It has
remained for Secretary TRACY to pick
out names under the law as 1t stands There
aro ready for this purpose the two S0O0-ton
vessels building at Norfolk and New York;
