NOT MUCH.

A dispatch from Washington SAYS Blaihe
will accept the nomination at Minneapolis
provided there is nothing in the platform
that will compel therepubHcans in congress
to attempt the passage of another force bill.
That is the only proviso on which he IN
sists." Blaine would have been elected
president in 1884 but for his defeat of the
force bill ten years before. He was speaker
of the house. A bill was pending to en-
force the right to ballot by the colored men
of the South, or in other words, to enforce
the law. Speaker Blaine got down out of
the speakers chair worked against the
bill and formed a combination with eleven
republicans and the democratic minority
to defeat it. He accomplished it and some
people think he ruined his chances there
and then Of ever being elected president.
Thousands ofrepublicans, it is said, voted
for Ben Butler in 1884 rather than vote for
Blaine. They probably knew Ben Butler
would enforce law or breaka trace in doing
it. 1t is scarcely to be believed that the
republican convention at Minneapolis
would allow any candidate to say: "Put
this in your platform and 1 will run"
There is no man today in the republican
ranks bigger than his party, and certainly
if there were such a man it is not one who
met defeat with the strongest running mate
ever nominated in the country, John A.

If free trade is good for England why do
about 100000 of her subjects emigrate TO
the United States every year to seek en-
ployment under our protective system ?
No free-trader can answer this question.
From three to four hundred thousand peo-
pie come to the United States every year.
They come because they find here better
wages, better homes, better opportunities,
better associates. All the world knows
that the doctrine of protection teaches the
truth in America; that we think more of
the welfare of our artisan than we think of
the cheapness Of his product. In England,
as the result Of free trade, the people think
more of cheap shoe than they do of
prosperous shoemaker. 1t is better to pay
a little more for an article, if by it the man
who produces it is made independent and
is thus enabled to distribute his resources
in other channels and give employment
and comfort to men who would not be
otherwise employed. The doctrine of pro
, 1892-05-19

lection is covered by the old maxim
"Live and let live." President Harrison
aptly remarked that "the gates Of Castle
Garden swing inward. They do not swing
outward to any American laborer seeking
a better country than this. These men
who have toiled at wages in other lands
that barely sustained lite, and opened no
avenue Of promise to them or their chill
dren, know the good land Of hope as we'll as
the swallow knews the land of summer. ."

blocks. pausing now and then to gaze in
the windows ut tho Christmas decora-

fascinated him. In cutters window
were stars, crosses and other emblems

them for a long time. Then he went in,
and selecting one particularly wicked
blade paid for it from the little roll of
bills, thrust it in the breast pocket of
his coat and resumed his tramp.

he was gone.
Johnson stood looking after him in u
dazed fashion until = gentlo hint from

move on.
So Raymond was poor and sicls-his

thought of killing Il poor invalid did rot

somewhere on the cast side?-as we'll

well, there was some Justice in heaven,
if not on Garth.
It was the night before Christmas
when johnson strolled again into the
great rink where the Salvation Army
was holding it's meetings. He listened to
tho burning words which fell from the
lips of II sweet faced woman. She talked
of Gods best gift to man and spoke of
peace and good will. Then again tho
singer camo forward, and again tho
strains which had run:, in Johnsons ears
for two days rolled to tho roof. While
listening eagerly his eyes suddenly fell
upon the face Of woman who was sit
ting three seats from him. A pale, thin,
shabbily dressed woman.
1t was Nelly!
When she rose to go he followed her.
AS she hurried away he stealthilycrept
behind her. his hand involuntarily
clutching the knife over his heart.
Upa rickety flight of stairs she went,
and close behind camo her pursaer. She
opened the door on tho third landing
and went in. lie crouched outside,
holding his breath.
The door remained ajar.
He looked in and marked the poor
room, with its wrctched belongings. He
saw the bed and tho sick man bolstered
up by flabby pillows. -
''Is that you, Nelly" he heard Ray
mond say. Il thought yQu would never

ONE OR TWO PASSENGERS TURNED AND
LOOKED AT HIM.
How? Suddenly, without warning and

him should the blow descend upon Ray

When? At night. Night, with its aw-

The man in the corner of the car
laughed aloud. One or two passengers

quickly withdrew their eyes. There
was no contagious mirth in that laugh.
and the smile on the cruel face was the
1m!le of fend.
That night he crawled into (. slovenly

Suddenly he paused before a great
building into which crowds were pour
ing. He Joined the throng and drifted
in. There were lights and music. Some
body-a man with clear baritone voice
was singing something. To the ears of
the Ishnaelite stole these words:

He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.

johnson looked stupidity about. He
saw faces lined with sin and suffering
the faces of thieves and outcasts. But
everybody was singing. He looked at

And once more the poor, sodden way

Something rolled down the cheek Of
the ex-convict.
He put up his hand impatiently to
brush it away.
And then, half stumbling, he hurried
out into the night.
But as he fled through the fast fall.
ing snowfakes he heard again the re-
frain well up like battlecry:
He's the Lily Of tho Valley.
Next day as he aimlessly walked
