A palner industry.

The tdriff-of 1850 deals out govern
ment Licenses to-its favorites to take
that which is not 1hair own, against the
protest Of other industries demanding
the right to keep what they have earned,
and a strife is thus in&ugurated between
domestic industries more subye,ting to
general prosperity than any possible en-
croachnent Of foreigners.
The contest which ended in The in
creased duty on timed plate was a
novel interference with 6.000 selfsup-
porting established industries built-nn
by the use Of cheap tiuned plateEas their
raw material III order to favor an in
dustry non-selfsupparting, and which
very fact was urged as an excuse why
public charity should be extended
toward it.
The government in thus granting
privileges to certain industries, at the
expense of others. is encouraging prec-
edent which, IN its simplest definition,
means robbery. and which in It's results
involves burdening the people to natural
ize a pauper industry at the blatant ap-
peal of those whose sole object was to
profit by selling supplies to the indus
trial poorApusa thus set up.

Like many Of the Democrats OF
Logan we preferred the nominal
ton of Gov. Wilson, as our stand,
ard bearer for Congress, and
threw all our energy into the pre-
liminary campaign to accomplish
II, but the Democratic party of
District thought. differently and
when the convention met at Char
lesion John d. Anderson was nom
mated by acclamation and Gov.
Wilson was no longer a factor in
the fight. A true Democrat
owes his allegiance to principles
and not to individuals, and John
ID. Anderson, representing the
principles Of the Democratic par
ty, is entitled TO the support Of
every Democrat in The Third Con
gfessional District, and when any
one refuses4to yield him support
in this campaign he ceases~to be
a, Democrat, and becomes the
slave of his personal prejudice
and passions. Mr.. Anderson as a
member Of Congress, has never
made a speech OF cast vote that
any Democrat can complain OF,
and all of his public utterances
have bristied with the true spirit
of Democracy. Mr.. Anderson is
no longer opposed by Gov. Will
son or any other Democrat, but
his only opponent is Mr.. Rucker,
Of Mercer. We know nothing of
Mr.. RucEer, whether he is the
very bad man that his enemies
make him, or the very good man
that he is painted by his friends.
We know nothing of hia%s except
that he Is the nominee of the Re-
publican party, and asssuch nom
inee he is pledged to the princi
pies and policies of that party and
that the Republican party is on
record as fayoring Federal control
OF elections and the taxing OF the
lahoring man Of West Virginia
in order to build Up private for
tunes, and that III voting for Mr.
Iurker we endorse those danger.

For over one thousand years
England held to the European
idea OF a protective tariff, and in
1850 she exported goods to the
amount OF 100000, 600 and -im-
ported about $i0o,000,000 worth,
giving her il balance of trade OF
$200,000,000. In 1852 she got rid
of her protection ideas and adopt
1edsfree trade. In 1890, less than
forty years after the adoption OF
her new policy, she exported
goods to the amount Of $2,100,-
100000 and imported them to the
amount of 81 ,200,000,o00, show
ing bolance of trade in her fav-
or of $9G0,000,0CO, an increase
of $50 per cent; and while she
now levies duties on about Il doz-
en- articles such as spirits, wines,
tobacco and other Injuries, her
revenues are as large as they
We're in 1850 when duties were
levied on nearly 1900 articles.
This is an object lesson on The
tariff which Americans might ex-
anime with profit.

ALL AROUND Us!

From all directions the north, the
east and the south and west-come &C
| count. of serious and disastrous fires.
All of this should suggest to our people
several things. IT should call for prompt
and immediate action concerning the
destruction of some of the fire traps in
this city
There is no use to talk about where
they are for they are legion.
One of these fine nights a fire will
burst through the shells and many men
will suffer.
The city council should at once make
a break-it should stand up CT its hind
legs or its front legs, and it should de-
mand that all wooden shells like the
YOUNGER building be burned at once.
There is no use for the council to claim
that it cannot act-it should act at once.
If not, wait for the ringing of the fire
bell.

Tanning n Zebra.

Zehras can never be tanned, unless the
process is begun while they are still very
young. Fl. A. Dryden gives an instance
of a tragic fate which befell one of them.
captured when he was Z or s years old.
He had joined a troop of horses belong
ing to one of the authors friends. and
finally allowed himself to be driven with
them into a kraal or Enclosure. 1t was
then determined to keep him, and if pos
sible to domesticate him.
For this purpose he was lassoed and
tiedto a tree, but so ferocious was he in
the presence of man that the greatest
precautions had to be observed in ap-
preaching him. All possible means were
taken to induce him to feed. When cap
tured he was in splendid condition, and
his coat shone in the sun. Heritage was
brought from the mountain tops where
he had been used to Craze, and every
conceivable food placed before him, but
in vain; he steadily refused to eat.
Water he drank greedily, and would
dispose of three bucketfuls at d time.
At length, after three weeks of vain
endeaver to tame the noble creature,
during which time he subsisted entirely
on water, he died.-Youth's Companion.
