LITERARY NOTES.

Ii is related that as far back as the
days of Socrates there were those who
devoted themselves to the study of
p!lysiognomy, and who professed to be
able to dellneate characters from the
face. In Athens there was such a
man, and to him several of the deciples
of Socrates carried the philosopher,
whom he had never before seen. After
an examination of his face, the physi-
ognomist declared that he was coarse
ond lubid;aous, drunken and lewd old
fellow. This greatly amused the de-
ciples of the famous Greek, but he
rebuked their merriment, declaring
that he had all the natural tendencies
outlined by the physiognomist, but
had conquered them by exercising his
powers of will and judgment.-Olive
Ohnet in The Graphic, Chicago.
The Graphic, Chicago, for July IS,
contains an elaborate sketch of the

Chicago, which viii be found of great

One of the subjects which Charles
Dudley Warner will discuss in the
August number of Harper's Magazine
is the permanency of a literary centre
in the United States Whether the
torch of literature is to pass on to New
York or Chicago is question which ne
thinks should be asked with some
show of discretion; for if the atten-
ton of Chicago is attracted to this
opening-lf it is convinced that liter

HIf OF Her Own Nose.

1t is quite evident that Canada has
cut of her own nose to spite her own
already badly lsfigured face, by refus-
ing TO have free reciprocal business re-
lations with the United States, as the
burden of benefits were largely in her
favor Our government has been very
generous with Canada in the past, but
this generosity all ceased through the
operations of the bill introduced by
Senator Higgins, of Del ware, 4 few
days ago. One item alone Will make
the ''blars.ed furriner'' squeel every
time he pays it. Uncle Samuel owns
and controls the 500 Canal, but the
Canadians have had free use OF it a
long time. but hereafter they viii have
TO pay tonnage tax Of fifty cents per
ton, gross ship measurement, upon all
their vessels every time they pass
through the canal
Section six Of the act is also some
what eNacting. 1t reads thus:
That there shall be levied. collected
and paid on coffee imported into the
United States from or through the
dominion of Canada a duty Of eight
cents per pound, ana on tea imported
into the United States from or through
the Dominion of Canada a duty of
twelve cents per pound, and Upcn all
foreign merchandise than products OF
the Dominion ot Canada imported into
the United States from or through the
said Dominion OF Canada, there Shall
he levied. collected and paid twice the
duties now imposed hv law upon SIM,
lar articles of merchandise when in.
ported into the United States from
foreign countries.

More Inconsistency.

The Democratic party of today de-
clare that they are following in the
footsteps of jefferson and jackson in
the matter of their Free Trade doc
trine. The following extract from
their platform, and another from the
utterances of Andrew Jackson, will
clearly show the inconsistency of such
twaddie:
cip.e of the Democratic party that the Fed
eral Government has no constitutional pow
er TO impose and collect Tariff duties. except
for the purposes Of revenue only. and we de-
mand that the collection of such taxes shall
he limited I" the necessities Of the Govern
ment. when honestly AM economically al
mini. tcrcd.-DemoJratlc Platform.
The power to impose duties on i'm.
ports originally belonged to the sey-
eral states. The right TO adjust those
duties with view to the encourage
ment of domestic branches of industry
is 50 completely identical with that
power that it is difficult to suppose tue
existence of the one without the other
The states have delegated their whole
authority over imports to the general
Government, without limitation or re-
striCtion, saving the very Inconsider-
spection laws. This authority having
entirely passed from the states, the
right to exercise TT for the purpose of
Protection does not exist in them, and
consequently, if it be not possessed by
the general Government, it must be
extinct. Our political system would
thus present the anomaly of people
stripped of the right to foster their
own industry, and to counterfeit the
most selfish and destructive policy
which might be adopted by foreign
nations. This surel" cannot be the
case; this Indispensable power, thus
surrendered by the states must be
within the scope of the authority on
the subject expressly delegated TO Con
gress. In this conclusion, | am con
tirmed as well by the opinions of Pres
idents Washington Jefferson, Mad
iSon ard Monroe, who have each re-
peatedly recommended the exercise of
This right under the constitution as
by the uniform practice of Congress,
the continued acquiesence of the
states, and the general understanding
OF the people Andrew Jackson.

American Economist:
\ balance of trade in our favor
means a balance of profits in the peck
cts of our people.
1t means that we are creditors in
stead of debtors, that foreign nations
owe us money or goods instead of our
country being i'll debt to foreign ma
tions.
Free Trade professors" pretend to
sheer at a balance of trade and say it
represents no wealth.
Yet those very Free Trade profess
ors" would far rather sell their text
books to English students and get back
good British gold in return than use
up their salaries in buying English
books without selling anything of
their OWN
\ balance of trade is an index of a
country's business, of its purchases
and sales, of its profits or losses.
If it be profitable for an individual
to sell more than lie buys and thus
have balance OF money--virtually a
private balance of trade-in his favor.
why is it not just as profitable for a
nation?
\ balance of trade may be paid in
money, or i'll goods and services.
Either mode of payment inures to the
profit of the country i'll whose favor
he haloppa ayiGtS
If the payment be in goods or ser
vices then the debtor nation must be
stir itself to send these goods, whether
of its own or of foreign production,
or perform those services. AS 4 con
sequence, we get more goods for less
money than we would get were there
no favorable balance.
The beneficial effect of payment in
cash need not be explained. Money,
it is true, is not cOnsumable, it cannot
be eaten or worn, but it has far more
important function. Money is the
life of trade. Where money is plenty
business is active and enterprise
awake. Where money is tight in
dustay stagnates.
SO our country should welcome a
favoroble balance of trade, and it
should welcome the American policy
of Protection, the only policy that has
past OF Will give it IN the future.

COMM. 10 Superior.

Some shifting Of crews Will follow
the changes recently made by the
Northern Pacific railway in its Wis
consin and Minnesota divisions. The
full detail of these changes cannot vet
be ascertained but advices from
Staples, the former headquarters of
this division and now a terminus of
the Lake Superior division, show that
the changes will greatly help the head
of the lake.
Six passenger conductors and their
brakemen will move at once to the
head of the lake, and many of them to
Superior. The freight conductors who
will come here are Messrs. Staub,
Glass, Maxwell Stillings. Vickers,
Cole, Gunderman and O. Brien All of
these men have families and Will want
houses to reside in. Messrs Hender-
son and Flynn will reside at Carlton
The brakemen who will come here
are: Dart, Nelson, Bradley, Hugunin,
Ayers, Darrow, McNaughtOn, ellis,
Olson. King, Linn, Cressy, Barcom
Banta and jerks. Many of these men
are single. Only FIVE employees of the
division will be transferred to the
Minnesota division,
1t Will be seen by this that establish
ing the headquarters of the Lake Su-
perior division at Superior means a
great deal to Superior much more
than one would suppose at first
thought.-Leader.
Prof. David p Todd, of Amherst
College, will describe in the August
Century an ascent of Full san, the
sacred mountain of Japan. His expe-
dition was one of several which have
been made possible by the bequest of
wealthy and eccentric Boston gentle
man, who left a fortune of $500, 900 to
Board of Trustees, with discretionary
power to employ it in establishing and
maintaining an astronomical observa-
tory on some mountain peak The
fund is now managed by the Harvard
College Observatory, and experimental
research has been conducted at high
attitudes in different parts of the globe
in order to show the precise nature of
the improved conditions of vision, and
to ascertain the best location for the
mountain observatory.
