sistant United States District Attor-
ney Platt, representing the Govern
ment, and ID. l. Mackie, representing
a New York importer, who contended
that an importation Of corsets should
pay a duty of 4 per cent. as manu-
featured cotton, instead Of DO per
cent. ad valorem as an article OF
Mr.. Plat had the advan-
tage in the argument. He is mar
ried man. Mr.. Mackie is not. Mr..
Mackie admitted that, being bache-
lor, his argument was necessarily based
on hearsay evidence. He said that
corsets were not wearing apparel, but
were used to hold the female form in
place, and that they had no warmth
in them. Mr.. Plat said that Mr..
Mackie was mistaken and that there
was a great deal of warmth in corsets
and that they were not worn for the
purpose contended by Mr.. Mackie.
Even ultra-fashionable young men
wore them. Judge Wheeler decided
that Mr.. Plat had the best of the
argument and corsets will hereafter
pay the Mckinley duty of 90 per
cent. ad valorem.-Ex.

Invention Perfected for the Preserva-
ton of Life at Sea.

Thomas A. Edison has perfected
and patented another wonderful cleo
trical invention. 1t is one that is in
tended not only to further the interests
of commerce, but to protect human
life at sea. 1t is, in substance, sys-
tenn by which Geographic communi-
cation can be carried on between ships
at sea and shore and between the
distant points OIL land. The most re-
markable part of all is that this in
accommodation can be maintained
absolutely without the use of wires or
cables. In his specifications filed at
the patent Office in Washington Mr..
Edison says: II have discovered
that if sufficient elevation be obtained
to overcome the curvature to the
earth's surface and reduce to the
minimum the earth's absorption cleo
trio telegraphing or signaling between
distant points can be carried on by
induction without the use of wires
connecting such distant points" BY
this method ships can telegraph to
each other at sea, one vessel being
able to communicate with another
far away and out Of sight. If bal
loon in New York should be sent up
to a great hight, equipped with a
condenser, and held to the earth by a
rope cable, in which there was strand
of wire, and another similarly equip
ped should be sent up from London, a
circuit would be formed through earth
and air without the aid of wires for
transmission, through which messages
could be flashed at greater speed than
has ever been attained by any other
system.-Ex.

A Symbol of Liberty.

/ have often been asked why the
Liberty Cap" is used in American
illustrations, when it originated and
why it was adopted. AT first / was
inclined to give the subject no par
ticular attention, and really never did
give it serious thought until good
fortune put United States cent of
1893 in my hands In this rare piece
the head of Liberty is turned to the
left. She has pole across her left
shoulder, surmounted by conical
poke, which is intended for Liberty
Cap. Here indeed was an oddity, a
subject for immediate investigation.
Turning to my Dictionary of Phrase
and Fable" Gan odd place to look,
sure, for a Liberty Cap is neither a
phrase nor a fable), I found the fol-
lowing under the head of "Cap OF
Liberty:" "The Goddess of Liberty
in the Aventine Mount was represent.
ed as holding in her hand cap, the
symbol of freedom. In France the
Jacobins wore red cap; in England
a blue cap with a white border is a
symbol of liberty, and Brittania il
sometimes represented as holding such
cap on the point of her spear"
Here was some pointers, but nc
real information as to the origination
of the symbol. Delving deeper into
"volumes of forgotten lore," l found
that the cap was . symbol of liberty
and freedom in the time of the Roman
Emperors. When the Romans manu-
mitted slave his head was adorned
with small red cloth cap. AS soon
as this was done he was known as O
libertnus, or freedman. and his name
was registered among others of the
city's "tribes." In the year 263, when
Saturninus invaded the capital, he
hoisted a cap on the point of his
spear, to indicate that all slaves who
rallied around this standard should
be free. When Marius melted the
slaves to take up arms against Sylla
he employed the same symbol, and
when Caesar was murdered the con.
spirators marched forth in a body
with cap elevated on a spear, in
token Of liberty.-Ex.

One of the foremost claims of the
protectionist is that the foreign ship
per pays the duties. If this is true,
isn't it strange that when famine
threatens any country, one of the first
means of relief thought of should be
a diminution or removal of import
duties on food stuffs : Again, the
report of the treasury department for
the fiscal year 1890 shows that 6,109
gallons of caster oil were imported,
valued at $2,910. The duties were
$500.
Now, if the foreign shipper paid
the duty, is it not certain that he not
only made us a present of the oil, but
gave us besides $3.50 to get rid of itf
In 1890 importers brought into the
United States 664,653 gallons of
spirits distilled from grain, valued at
$456,121, the duties on which were
$1,329,367. Who paid these duties ?
If the importers, they lost not only
the liquor, but $S73,246 besides.
There are, of course, extreme cases,
but the truth or fallacy of PROPOSE
ton is generally more forcibly shown
by taking extreme cases.-Rural New
Yorker.

Protect All or None.

The unskilled and unpretending
laborer who guides the plough and
gathers the harvest is as much entitled
to the protection of the law and to the
encouragement of the Government as
the scientific artisan who has master
ed all the mysteries of his craft.
Each one of the busy millions who
help to create and distribute the vari-
ed products of this wonderful land of
ours has an undoubted right to de-
mand an equal participation in all the
advantages conferred by the laws of
his country; and l repudiate every
definition of American industry or
American labor which excludes a
single honest and useful occupation.
Whoever challenges the right of the
humblest citizen, whatever may be
his trade or occupation, to an equal
participation in the benefits conferred
by the Government so long as he
bears an equal share of its burdens,
denies the equality of man whoever
asserts that one class of men or one
species of industry has a right to ex-
act tribute from another for its own
benefit. or has superior claims upon
the consideration of the Government,
asserts doctrine utterly at war with
the first principles of our political
system. To call such a doctrine the
american doctrine" and to an
nounce it in high-sounding and patri-
otto phrase, is simply an attempt to
hide its deformity beneath rhetorical
and sentimental garb, and will de.
ceive no one who looks beyond the
surface.-From a speech by the Hon
John G. Carlisle in the House of Rep.
reseutatives.

usurper issued a Spanish American
proclamation. telling them he would
suppress them if they did.
Now, on their appeal to the courts,
they are told that until the vote is
declared by both houses Of the Legis-
lature. the Supreme Court cannot in
terfere to seat the Governor-elect or
to determine his title.
1t is a maxim Of law that no man
should be allowed to take advantage
of his own crime. In this case the
usurper and his partisans conspired
to prevent the formality required for
the Inauguration Of the elected Gov
ernor, and because they did SO the
State Supreme Court says that it can
not interfere to prevent the success of
their conspiracy.
Thus in Connecticut a minority,
shown to be such by tho official re-
turns of the poll of citizens, holds the
Government against the majority by
threat of force and by open usurpa-
ton.

Mr.. Cleveland's remark In the
course of his speech at the dinner Of
the Business Mems Democratic As

party has adopted an issue great

of experience and wisdom.
BY great good fortune, said this
Democratic philosopher, who is man
of international reputation. the old
Democratic party has among its
members a man Of the highest charac-
ter, a man who is stronger with the
party and with the country than any
other, and whom it could easily elect
