First--It brings together diversified industries which never failt vastly in- crease the personal intelligence. industry and wage earnings of the people.
 Second-It adds prodigiously to the power of increasing by machinery and steam and water power the necessaries of life and of advanced civilization. and also greatly cheapens the cost of subsist- e2ce.
 Third-It furnishes an opportunity for every person to find Unemployment best adapted to his or her genius and capaci- ty that will secure the largest income or the greatest happiness.
 Fourth-It creates a home market, without which the cultivators of land Tn America would be but little better of than our aborigines.
 Fifth---It is the bulwark of national independence in peace or war.--Justin s. Morrill, in American Economist.

suInclenJ empnasls ourng the iaN rew weeks we propose to raise them so em- phatically that our mugwump friends will not be able to sneak away without an answer. and that answer must be an- equivocal. If the Anglomaniacs can afford to make Americanism the coming issue We can afford to have them. A column of sneers at American products may satiate few of the readers of the New York Times: paragraphs belittling American manufactures may tickle a few of those who stroke the lions mane with the editor of The Post; but do loyal, patriotic Democrats want to be numbered among this band of conner cial sneak thieves, who would hand over our industries to that notorious ''fence" known as the British crown?
 On the editorial page of the New York Times last Sunday appeared a reprint from an obscure sheet denouncing The Sun for giving a good report of the Tariff League banquet, and calling particular attention to its American features. This report appeared under the following headlines:
 Thoroughly American. Unique ban quet of the Protective Tariff league. Cele- brating glcries Of the tariff. Major Mo- Kinley describes its benefits to the people. The speakers and their senti- ments, too, were American through and through"
 Then, says this obscure sheet, which The Times so prominently indorses:
 After this conspicuous illustration of its strong sympathy with the leading feature of modern Republican propa- ganda, it is difficult to conceive how The Sun can longer masquerade as Demo- cratic paper"
 Is there any mistaking these words? The Heading feature" alluded to was the glorification of American institutions, of American labor. of American industry, of American progress. Is the Democratic party then to join the mugwunp band of pirates who would infest the sea of our unparalleled prosperity, pull down the Stars and Stripes and raise the black flag of Free-trade and misery? Shades of Jefferson and Jackson and Randall for bid! But if it is to be so we want to know it, and we want the people to know it. Let the issue be made sQuarely and boldly. Let us have no more stradiling. Is it to be America for Americans or is it to be rule Britannia? The mask of tariff reform" is too transparent for further use. If the following utterances from Congressman Johnson, of Ohio. ex- presses the sentiment of the Democratic party let them be proclaimed far and wide:
 "I am q Free-trader because l an a Democrat.
 Il am for Mills, of Texas, for speaker of the house, because want to have an out and out Free-trader take the chair held by Reed.
 Let Democratic leaders, then, be men. They acknowledge Free-trade in private, let them stop talking in public of percentages merely"
 Unfurl your flag, gentlemen, and let the colors be the same on both sides. Raise your emblem and let us hear whether it roar3 or screams. Are you for England or America!

No Cobtien Club Banquet This Year.

And now we learn that the Cobien club has given up its annual dinner this year. No reasons are given, but of course there are reasons. A banquet is generally time of rejoicing, and Cob. den club banquet in 1891, when Free trade is in disgrace the world over, would be rather misnomer. But with the announcement that the banquet was abandoned comes the news that the work of educating uncivilized countries like the United States is still to go on. Through their agent, in this country pamphlets on the evils of Protection will continue 10 be spread over the west. One more effort will be made to inhu. ence robbed" and ''tax hurdened" people to adopt the policy of Golden and Bright t--then they will have their ban quet. But will they have it?

The capital stock of the company is one hundred thousand 100000 shares of ten t$l0) dollars each.
 One-half of the capital stock will be sold in the Tcrritoryof Arizona, payable in land adapted to the cultivation of sugar beets. sugarcane sorghum and sac charine products at the market price.
 The other half will be sold for cash, at not less than par, for the purpose of pur- chasing, importing and erecting machin- cry adapted to manufacturing domestic sugar.
 The fifty thousand shares reserved for the farmers can be paid for at any time within five years from the date of the organization in land or it's saccharine productions, such as sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, etc, etc., and the sub scribers will be entitled to draw divi- dend pro rata on payments made.
 The fifty thousand cash shares must be fully paid on delivery, and will be entitled to full dividend semi-annually.
 It is reasonably expected that the company can declare dividend of 25 per cent per annum on current business, and have some land left.
 After the capital stock shall have been disposed of and one-half fully paid in cash, the company will be authorized to issue equal to one-half of the capital stock, bonds secured by mortgage, upon all the property of the company, pay able in twenty years. with interest at the rate of percentum per annum, payable semi-annusIly, for the purpose of devoting the proceeds to the purchase of land, and for no other purpose; pio- vided, always, that these bonds cannot be issued nor mortgage on the prop erty executed without the approval of a majority of the shareholders.
 The Government of the United States offers to pay bounty of two cents per pound or 40 dollars per ton on domestic manufactured sugar, and to admit free cf duty, until the first day of July. 1892, all machinery required for its manu- facture.
 The Territorial Legislature, at its last session, passed an act exempting all land used in the cultivation of sugar beets. as we'll as the plant and machin- cry employed m the manufacture of do- mestic sugar, from taxation for ten years.
 We imported from foreign countries during the last fiscal year, sugar, mo lasses, candy and confectionery to the value of slOl ,2a3, ,s26, or sent away up. wards of one hundred million dollars. which can te retained at home by en- couraging the manufacture of domestic sugar.
 The average yield of saccharine matter from sugar beets in France is only per cent, in Germany 10 per cent.
 In California the average yield is l5 per cent.
 It is conti,lentlybeIieved that the soil and sun of Arizona will yield a much larger polarization from sugar beels than France, Germany. California, or any other country; and if these premises are correct. the profits will lexceed that of any other sugar factory in the United States.

@ THE ARIZONA SUGAR COMPANY O

The farmers who may subscribe to the stock of the company will have vital and personal interest III the production of sugar beets.
 Farmers and capitalists can estimate the chances of loss and gain as well az the directors of the company, but it may he promised that agricultural land free from taxation fOrms a safe investment, and that machinery which can be im- ported free of duty and enjoys immu- nifty from taxation, is only subject to loss by fire, which can be covered by insurance.
 Land in Arizona will produce at least twenty tons of sugar beets per acre, twice annually.
 The market price will depend upon the quantity of saccharine.
 Sugar beets require neither bagging nor storage; but are cash at fhe miu, and the company might even he able 10 ad- vance money on unencunbered land de- voted to their cultivation.
 It is a matter of consequence in some parts of Arizona that sugar heets ex- tract alkali from the soil better than any other production.
 After supplying the home market in Arizona with sugar, molasses, confec- tions, etc., transportation is the most serious question, and the smaller bulk the production oi the country can be reduced into the better for the producer.
 Sugar will bear transportation better than hay, grain, or ores.
 4 sugar mill at come railway depot with capacity of loo tons per day. at s6 per ton for sugar beets, would be 8 great benefit to the farmers and mer- chants of Arizona.
 The cooperative system of offering the farmers one-half of the capital stock payable in the productions required for the mill has worked well in Germany and France, and in fact the co0perative system in every country is the out growth Oi civilization.
 The farmers interest in the company will be d guarantee to the nonresident shareholders of d vigilant watchfulness over the management. and by united ef- fort staple production may be intro luced in Arizona which will enliven the source of all permanent prosperity- AGRICULTURE.
 It is not to be overlooked that after the saccharine matter is extracted from sugar beets the residium forms excellent food for sheep, cattle, hogs, poultry, , etc., and nothing that comes from the soil is wasted.
 The cultivation of sugar beets may be carried on by the least intelligent labor. Indians, Mexicans, children may all be employed in transplantinI the beets and gathering the crop. Only the mill re- quires intelligent labor.
 Sugar indus,ri .s are being started in many States Of the Union less adapted by nature to the growth of saccharine products than Arizona, and an effort on the part of the residents may encourage assistance from abroad.

Something About Beans.

Of all edible pots it is believed that the bean has been longest known and most widely cultivated. It was used as food by the ancient Jews and considered sacred by the Greeks and Romans. A temyle dedicated to Kyanetes, the god of beans, formerly stood on the sacred road near Eleusis. Kyanetes was called the god of beans because he was the first to cultivate them for food. The bean feast, which the Athenians celebrated in honor of Apollo, was characterized by the ex- cessive use of beans. The Egyptians, contrary to the nations above mentioned, considered beans unclean, and would not venture to touch them. Pythagoras ad- monished his scholars, "Abstain from beans." The natives of Egypt and most all Oriental nations look upon the black specks on the wings of the bean flower as the written characters of death.

following protests and explanations ao- companying nobe to the editor:
 "I am aware it is the fashion of the day for the advanced women to carry the purse, earn the money and provide the home for the family.
 However, the good old system now and then prevails.
 ''The man whose name am SO fortu- nate as to bear, planned, paid for and named "The Bungalow" Every article of furniture was his selection and purchase.
 "Aside from placing credit where it be- longs I wish to save the young literary Aspirant from false ideas of the profits of literature.
 "Where woman Is fortunate enough to have her private income for doing good and for an economical luxury, very well but it is a misfortune when her delicate shoulders must bear the burden of build, ing houses and providing support. As a young girl bore burden of this kind As happy married woman not one care of providing one dollars worth for my self has fallen upon me-"
 And yet, the editor who got the letter must have reflected, women do-ever married women-earn money enough by writing to buy many Bungalows, some times because they have to, and some times because they want to.
 ''The Bungalow" cause of so much dis pute, is a little cottage by the sea, pretty enough for a passionate songstress anc tiny enough for two souls who would never be far separated

Lawyers Incomes.

The statement hazarded by some one, George Ticknor Curtis, I believe, that Webster spoke complacently of an in come of $15,000 a year from his practice when at the height of his career has set lawyeEs upon comparing incomes of past and present days.
 Nobody knows how many New York lawyers are earning more money than Godlike Dan earned. A mere catalogue of them, if they were anyone competent to prepare it, would look as tedious as g tax list sale. There wouldn't all be well-known lawyers either-Choates and Newcombes and Evartses and Tracys, nor all fine orators of command ing presence like Dan Dougherty and Leslie w. Russell, nor all resplendent in yachting fannels and diamonds like William F. Howe. In the list, if it were correctly compiled, would be many g staid office lawyer, of whose existence nobody hears, real estate experts, ''snuffy old drones'' from Nassau street hives and all sorts of queer fish.
 I declare that when I consider how hard it is to earn $15, 900 year, it seems queer to see such a lot of people success fully accomplishing the feat.

Life in Seeds For Years.

It has been claimed that the seeds taken from ancient Egyptian tombs are capable of growth, but proof of the claim is lack ing. It has been demonstrated, however. that seeds of a very great age are capable of development. Raspberries have been raised from seed taken from the stomach of man who died during the time of the Emperor Hadrian, who reigned in the second century of our era. Think of it, a seed springing into new life after lying dormant sixteen centuries.

The Webster Murder Case.

The end of the Webster case will surely be to blast the political career of one petted society darling in New York, who is supposed to have some pull with the courts of justice. The woman in this case is an extremely unsavory character. How about the character of the man who lived with her, bought her off when his marriage and his political aspirations made her in convenient and has now stood between her and justice to avoid scandal? Is the woman so much worse than the manS
 And if the electrocution cases arc pushed against the newspapers one o1 them is likely to get mad and tell the yonng mans name.

A Titled Assembly.

Happening to visit Providence, R. l., few days ago, was invited out to lunch in the favorite restaurant of the place by buisness man who knew pretty much everybody in the room. AS he pointed
 out the local celebrities I could see how
 living in small State increases the dis
 tinction of casual gathering. I have
 an impression that nearly every man in
 the room was either an ex-Governor, ex-
 Mayor, State Senator, Municipal Coun-
 cilman or other high off1ci al, and the
 "prominent citizens'' shone with start ling distinction in the titled ruck.
 The Providence business men have one mighty good trait besides the others
 usual elsewhere. They know how to take life easily. As I understand it, once a week during the entire summer, about 150 of the best-known men in the place go down the bay at midday to eat lunch at a clubhouse overlooking the water.
 They are gone about three hours and a half and nothing seems to suffer from their absence Not infrequently the clerks take their turn.
 Imagine lot of New York business
 men leaving their offices from 12 to 3 of a good business day to take lunch at Coney 1 Islandl Yet, if they did take life trifie easier, they might look as robust and l happy as do the Providence men, and 1 they don't now by long chalk.

Woodchucks as Pets.

Have you ever known woodchuck to display affection for human being?
 I have not, though have seen one, ap- parently rabid, attack man without cause. However, there must be in the woodchuck's groveling soul some capac- ity for devotion, for a New York lady who has a summer home at Binghamton, has trained couple of them as pets. And though l have never seen them, know they must be well behaved pets, for cer- tain photograph of them, with their gra- -ious mistress in the modest background, was exhibited to me the other day, and the woodchucks had behaved admirably under the cameras eye, looking indeed, not unlike dogs in their attitude towards their mistress. Perhaps woodchucks' souls are really not groveling at all in spite of their underground ways
 Another photograph of this summer home's glories reveals room with seven dogs nestling about, on and under a couch. It was one of the dogs that brought home the woodchucks in their babyhood. Whether they quarrel now don't know. And still another picture shows lot of horses, from all which cir cumstances one feels inclined to envy folks who have so many beautiful or strange pets.

The Waterbury Circus"

Reporters don't always enjoy the errands they are sent upon, especially those requiring what is called cheek, ," said one of the Past Masters of the art in little gathering of kindred spirits the other day. 'Do you remember Water bury's private circus in his gorgeous barn a few years ago?"
 Every one did.
 'tOf course," said the Past Master, 'eWaterbury didn't want any reporters at that circus, but every paper sent one, some of them two, and very fine looking set of men we were in our claw hammers and white ties The private secretary met us. He didn't quite dare tell us to go back to the city again. What he did say amounted in effect to this, that he was deuced sorry we came, but supposed he'd have to put up with the infiction. Of course, we said we were not anxious to mingle with MT. Waterbury $ guests, but merely desired to see the show for business reasons So the Secretary put us in a little gallery away up aloft which had evidently been re- served for the house servants, for pres ently they all came crowding in, and the cook in her excitement sat down in my lap and another maid leaned over my shoulder. I wasn't married then and wasn't used to having a woman sitting on my knees, so after little I gave the cook my chair and went down stairs. | Outside the door an usher saw me, and as looked as well as any of the guests
 he thought I was one, and was just talk | ing me inside when we met little man | looking very pale aud very stern. That
 was Waterbury.
 "'Where are you going, he asked. | "T-I was looking for MT. -, youl
 Secretary replied.
 'I think you'll find him outside" said
 MT. Waterbury, with meaning emphasis
 And outside I went. Of course I went
 back to the office after getting all the | facts and wrote most glowing account | of the glories of the circus, and then | told the editor that not one of us report

The French as Cooks.

Itis 8 curious fact that the French, who cannot cook a real beefsteak to the Anglo Saxon palate, can convert the horse into a savory dish. The opportunity for decep- tion puts their culinary art upon its met tie, just as if you give them the primest green turtle out of the West Indies, they will spoil it in the pot, while from calf's s head, some veal scraps and the stock kettle they will make you mock turtle soup to delude any one but New York alderman

warm Derths next the melting iron at any time of the year. The degree of heat which people can bear when they are used to it is certainly astonishing.
 The foundryman or iron molder always wears flannel shirt. That is one pre- caution, not against heat but against taking cold in drafts. They drink gal Ions of water, sweat profusely and get along very we'll. You see, they really enjoy the summer. It's so nice to get out of the shop and find the thermometer only 95
