Hard Nuts for Mr.. Mckinley.

From Congressman Jerry Simpsons sSpeech.1
We are in earnest and we think that
the people of America have been great
ly wronged. 1 go to the Republican
Party and ask them for its remedy. 1t
replies, "Put up the tariff" And yet
you have been putting up the tariff for
thirty-two years. Iasked Mr.. McKin-
ley: "If tariffs wages, why is it that
Great Brittain.a free-trade country pays
twice tue wages protected Italy does;
why is it that Great Britain pays double
to her wage-earners what she paid in
1S47, when she became free-trade
country? Why is it that Great Britain
pays her laborers one-third more than
the laborers receive in the protected
countries of Europe~ My idea is that
the freedom to trade with others is a
primal right. What have the Republic
cans done? They have shut US off from
the markets of the world. Oh, yes, they
put wheat and corn and oats in the duty
list. We have surplus of them. Was
there any need of protection there?
What we need is chance to trade
with all the world.

A Fatal Mistake.

Physicians make no more fatal mistake
than when they inform patients that nervous

A California farmer has come to the
conclusion that his wishes cut no figure
in the distribution of moisture. Ninety
tons of hay on one side of his farm was
soaked by passing shower, while q
large field of grain on the other side,
that needed rain badly, did not get a
drop.

INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT.

Property in ideas, when these have
been materialized in the form of books,
has long been practically recognized, as
well in the copyright laws of our own as
in those of other countries. Yet for
wears, and in the face of this fact, we
have suffered the disgrace of being abort
the only civilized nation on earth mean
enough to refuse to make the principle
international in its application. When
ever it was proposed TO do this the enc
mics of the reform have raised the cry
of "expediency," "the needs of the
reading public, h"thc advantage of cheap
literature" and other similar catch
words intended to mislead, while the
ethical questions involved have been con
temptuously brushed aside as unworthy
of serious notice.
BY its refusal TO lcgislate on the sub
jeet In accordance with well-known prin-
ciples in fOrcC in other countries, our
government, it is not unfair to say, tao
lily maintained that, after all, stealing
was quite the thing, or at least not to be
interiered with, as long as it served the
interests Of a numerous class, and could
be carried on without peril and 10 the
profit OF the thief. To plender the for
eign author became an innocent Occupa-
ton; he was not one of us, and we stilled
our cOnsciences with the pretense that
moral obligations were limited by geo
graphical boundaries.
The decisive majority in favor of the
new hill sharply discredits this belittling
view of our duty as nation. Ii also
marks a most encouraging advance in
public sentiment which is daily growing
more and more appreciative Of the rare
variety of legislation which is founded
on right and justice. There is good
ground TO hope that the bill will meet
with equal success in the senate, while
the President, with his well-known de-
votion to principle, is already committed
in its favor.-Popuidr Science Monthly.

people seem to have little or no sense of
tilication-certlinly none of polite
ness. Here is an amusing illustration:
A well know citizen of Hartford, CT,
a few days ago had taken his seat in the
afternoon train for Providence, when a
small, weazen-faced elderly man came
into the car looking for seat. The gen
tleman good-naturedly made room for
him by his side, and the old man looked
him over from head to foot.
"Going to Providence?' he said AT

of two or three acquaintances in tn,

THE FUTURE WHITE HOUSE.
