HAMLET THOUGHT and made bold to say that Horatio's philosophy was de- fective. If he was to revisit the glimpses of the moon at the present time he would be apt to conclude that Mr. Roger e. Mills had no philosophy at all. And yet the conduct of Mir. Mills ought not to be vigorously con- demned until we know just why he has effaced himself. Perhaps he has taken his own prescription and retired for the purpose of soaking his head.

NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
Best of Republican Newspapers-the Tri-

Roswell G. Horr on the Tariff.


 The Republican party, triumphant in 1891, wherever national issues were at stake, renews, progressively and bravely, the fight for 1892. The New York Fri bune, the ablest, most reliable, and best of Republican papers, leads the way.
 During 1892, Roswell G. Horr, of Michigan, the witty orator, will continue in The Tribune, his remarkable articles on the Tariff, Reciprocity, Coinage, and Currency. These topics are all under. standable; the Republican policy with regard to all of them is right, patriotic and impregnable; but dust has been thrown in the peoples eyes, and the air has been filled with fog, by lying and tricky Tariff Reiormers. The Tribune prints from one to five exceedingly en- tertaining articles evey week explaining these questions.
 Mir. ilorr begins at the beginning of every subject, and makes it so clear that everyone can under stand and no one can answer him. |. Ask any neighbor what he thinks of MT. Horr's writings. He will tell you that they are genlal, clear, entertaining and perfectly unnnswerable. A speciality is made of answering all questions, asked in good faith, on the Tariff, Reciprocity, Coinage, the Currency, and the projects of the Farmers Alliance. The Tribune is the best national Republican paper to supplement your local paper during 1892.
 b How Co Succeed In Life.
 The Tribune will also continue the series of articles to Young Men and Wo- men, penned by men who, beginning life themselves with few advantages, have nevertheless succeeded honorably and brilliantly. It will also reply to questions as to what young men and

DEMOCRATS have talked great deal about "revenue reiorm," but to put in practice has been left to Republicans. Under the new tariff law undervalua- tions have been checked and duties i'm. partially collected. That is "revenue reform" in earnest to the benefit of honest merchants as well as manufac- tnrinp Workmen.

REPUBLICAN policy promotes our In dependence of other countries, but makes them more dependent upon us. This is natural, because we are the worlds greatest producers from soil and mine. Thus, protection, supplemented by reciprocity, increases our foreign commerce to American advantage.

At the Worlds W. c. T. L. meeting in
Washington, d. c.. attention vas called to
a circular letter issued by Secretary Blaine
last October instructing the consuls in the
South and Central American States to re-
port to the Department of State the best
means Of introducing American beer into
those countries, the cost of importation,
means of keeping beer, kinds of refriger-
beer and malt trade. To this circular let
ter replies were received from every consul,
and these, together with outs of refriger-
ators, were printed in book form, but were
not generally distributed. In presenting
this matter, Mrs. Maggie B. Plat eloquent
ly declared that for years the temperance
people had been besieging Congress with
petitions begging for a commission of in
quiry into the alcoholic liquor traffic, but
their petitions had never been granted. The
liquor men, she said, did not want the
traffic investigated, because they knew if
the calcium light of public investigation
was turned upon their business there would
be exposed such fostering corruption, such
depths OF infamy, such Generalization of
homes and degradation of human beings,
as would arouse a cyclone of popular indig-
nation. She quoted the circular letter sent
out by Mr.. Blaine, and said that a simple
request from some of the leading masters
and brewers of the country received imme-
date attention, while no heed was given
Christian and temperance people. Mrs.
Platt said the government, through its
state department. dcffed its hat to the lio-
uor interests, and said: Certainly, n
tlemen, certainly; your request shall be
complied with with pleasure;" and forth
with the machinery of the United States
government was set in motion to drum up
trade for American brewers in other lands.
Ii that was cordial sympathy with all
we'll directed efforts, " she wanted no more
OF it. Open.handed, bare.faced hostility
were better than such sympathy. The
United States government, which they had
delighted to honor, had stopped to make of
itself a drummer for the beer trade. Such
business. she said, was an insult to Christ
tian w%omanhood, a burning disgrace to the
nation and a blistering shame to all Christ
endom. A memorial was presented declar-
ing that the action of the secretary of state
in conducting the correspondence ofthe
brewers and liquor dealers was n insult to
the governm ent, and in the name of hu-
manity and charity they protested against
that department performing any such work.
The memorial was adopted by a rising vote,
and the large church echoed with applause.

The crop bulletin, issued by the New
Jersey Weather Service, from the Expert
ment Station at New Brunswick, for the
week ending July Sd, has this to say about
the condition Of the crops in this State:
The observers and crop correspondents
of the New Jersey Weather Service, report
that the prevailing weather conditions of
the past week have been most favorable to
the harvesting of wheat, rye and hay, and
that these crops have beeu housed in ex-
cellent condition. Also that during the
week the temperature has been slightly
below the normal and with a large defci-
ency of rainfall. These conditions were
unfavorable to the growth of corn, potatoes
and other truck crops. Fruit, especially
apples, is falling badly, but in most Sec
tons sufficient remains upon the trees to
give an average crop.
The Secretary of the State Board of
Agriculture reports that the want of rain
for growing crops is seriously felt in the
middle counties, especially Middlesex aud
Somerset and in the extreme northern por-
lions of the State. A personal inspection
OF the vineyards in Nineland and vicinity
the 9th of June show that some of the
most promising vines were attacked by
the black rot, this enemy OF grape culture,
although the weather Was dry. Some
vineyards seemed, where sprayed with the
Bordeaux Mixture, entirely free from this
sccurge, and that the entire crop has been
by the timely use of this mixture.
If this is possible, and it seems now to have
passed the experimental test, those grape
growers who have not resorted to this
''ounce Of prevention" may lose thousands
of dollars by their neglect.

thousand people and has not an open

The Drinkers Dictionary

DISSIPATION.
The prefix DIS denotes separation, or
parting from.
To dissipate is to cause to disappear, To
drive asunder, to scatter. 1t is evident,
therefore, that the word fits close to the
real experiences of those whose dissipated
habits have caused money and friends tc
disappear; houses, farms, sheep and oxen
to be swallowed up, wives and children tc
be driven away, and the fondest and
brightest hopes to be scattered and
shattered.
The beginnings of these evils were small
and seemingly Insignificant. They began
with treating and ended with entreating,
1t was only a 'sip"-only a taste '.just 70,
once" but the end was restitution anc
death.
Destroy him not with thy meat Drink,
| for whom Christ died.
1t is good neither TO eat flesh, nor t.
drink wine, nor anything whereby thy
brother stumbletb. or is offended or il
made weak. Rom. IA: 10 and 81.
EBRIETY.
A state Of ebriety or inebriety, is a state
Of intoxication that all dram drinkers
are liable sooner or later to live in.
1t is not a desirable state in which tc
AVE a residence. All the people in il
would be better off if they had never beer
there.
The longer one lives therein the less
property, the fewer friends and more mis-.
cry he ~aecumulates.
Notw outstanding these facts, there is a
constant stream of emigrants, and agen.
cies to induce people to enter this state are
established all over the land.
The people who are in the state do not
recommend it, their foolish and filthy
talk, their ragged and torn clothing, the
miserable shifts by which they strive to
exc out an existence, ought to cause emf
grafton to cease, but still the stream
flows on. Have you started? Turn back.
Turn back or you are lost.

Having given Mr.. Harrison credit for
one good appointment, it becomes a duty
to call attention to al action of his for
which he deserves no credit. There were
five cadets at large to West Point to be
appointed, for the term beginning in June
next year, and Mr.. Harrison added his
mite towards the building up of a military
aristociaey by appointing four from we'll
known military families and one from a
naval family, and yet it is the civilians
who pay the taxes that go to maintain
West Point. Is it any wonder that the
graduates OF West Point, the peoples free
military school, affect an exclusiveness in
their intercourse with us plain everyday
sort of folks? But their present uppishness
is nothing compared to what it will be
several generations from now if the idea
that the cadetships belong exclusively to
the sons of army and navy officers is not
exploded.
From the best information obtainabie
here there is no truth in the sensational

at this season and Mr.. Blaine's dangerous
illness makes about as good a sensational
fake as can be obtained.

DGsgraceful students.

There seems great need of a temperance
revival at Harvard University. The state
of things brings reproach, not only upon a
seat OF learning which is professedly de-
voted to Christ and his Church, but upon
a civilized community. The other day the
police made a raid upon a Greek Letter
Clubroom, seized the liquor in the rooms,
and arrested about thirty students, twenty.
five of whom were sentenced to pay a fine
of $65. The Chief of Police, in an inter-
view said, very justly
why should a Harvard student be
allowed to carry On an illegal liquor
traffic, and a poor woman, possibly a widow,
with several small children depending upon
her for support, be made TO suffer for try
ing to do so?"
More recently, sixteen students went off
on a drunken riot. with the result of an in
jured cab driver, four maltreated horses, a
damaged coach, and a long expense bill.
Why the young men were not arrested is
not known. And now the proprietors of
the leading hotels in Boston announce that,
in future, they will refuse to allow Har-
ward graduates to dine in numbers at their
Lotels.
No doubt, a young man of strong char
actcr, great self control and confirmed
habits may get along safely at Harvard
University, especially If lie is not exposed
to the emptations that come with wealth;
but it is a dangerous place for a young
man. Many sons of wealthy men go there,
not because they have any desire to study,
ont simply because their parents do not
know what else to do with them. and give
them a generous allowance, hoping it will
make them contented, and that they will
be kept out of mischief. One or two of
some sorts of young men are enough to
spread moral contagion through an entire
class or an entire college. One great adj
vantage of the smaller colleges is that they
do not draw, to any considerable extent,
this class of young men.
Since the above was in type we notice
