of the diet, composed mainly of repre-
sentatives of the larger land holders,
remained true protection at heart, and
some of the strongest newspapers of the
country never surrendered to free
trade. These formed the rallying
points Of the protection sentiment when
1t began to make itself felt more gener-
ally as factor in the practical politics
OF the country. But the tariff reformers
had great obstacles to overcome. The
lower house of the diet was controlled
by coalition of small land holders and
the democracy, in the cities, which
was implacably hostile to the
aristocratic, party holding sway in
the upper house. Before any
thing could be accomplished in
the line of tariff revision, the alliance
between the workingmen and the small
farmers must be severed, and the latter
must join hands with the large land
owners. Friends must become enemies.
and enemies become friends. In other
words, a complete readjustment of party
lines must take place before successful
assault could be made upon the free
traders, who were firmly intrenched in
all departments of the government.
During the parliamentary session of
1885 the first assault was made. The
farmers of the country, small and large,
demanded protection as the only means
of salvation from impending ruin. A
bill for the increase of import duties on
cereals and pork was introduced in the
diet, but rejected in the lower house.
Next session the same bill shared the
same fate. But during the session of
1887 it passed the lower house by vote
Of III to 10t. The government promptly
dissolved the chamber, and writs for
special election were issued. 1t resulted
in large majority for free trade. But,
in the general election, which occurred
few weeks later, the protection party
obtained strong majority in
the upper house, while the free
traders lost SO many seats in the
lower chamber that the protectionists
were sure Of majority of 10 on joint
ballot of the diet. The final decision of
an election contest involving all of the
% representatives for the city of StocR-
holm gave them narrow majority in
the second chamber also. This signifed
the death of the old farmers party.
Henceforth new agrarian party with
protection emblazoned on it's banner
took the helm of state.
Upon the assembling of the new diet
the Themptander free trade cabinet
resigned. A compromise ministry under
the presidency of Baron Bildt was
formed and a protective tariff bill was
forthwith passed by vote of 1T to 80
in the lower house, and of 73 to 42 in
the upper chamber. This law imposed
increased duties ON grain, flour, pork,
spirits, raw iron and ships. The iron
schedule shows plainly how completely
the hands of Sweden were tied by her
commercial treaties. She was not at
liberty to protect her manufacturers OF
machinery and iron ware, because these
articles We're embraced in existing
treaties. All she could do was to in
crease the duty on the raw mate

| attack for tne next five years.
The effects Of the new policy have been
satisfactory thus far. and the industrial
classes look to the future with a feeling
of encouragement and hope.
The Rev. G. A. Stenberg, pastor of
the Swedish Lutheran church at Canson
Falls, Mimi, recently visited his old
homein Sweden, and shortly after his
return to Minnesota he delivered a lee
ture to his parishioners at Cannon Falls
in which he gave his impressions of the
old country. As regards the industrial
conditions of Sweden he expressed him
self substantially as follows:
Gas for the financial and economical
side Of Sweden it is now far better than
when 1 lived there from twelve to
twenty years ago. In those days we had
free trade and everything the farmer
had to sell was cheap and labor was
cheap. But now under the laws of a
protective tariff the sarmers get about
three or four times as much for their
produce that they have to sell, and can
well afford to pay higher wages for
labor that they have to hire. Free
trade is like opening mans veins and
letting his blood out.
Wages at present are for a man
servant from 175 to 200 crowns per year,
but during the free trade period it was
only from 80 to 100 crowns per year. AS
1 before said, everybody at present
seems to feel we'll: labor is plenty and
money freer in circulation; but the pur-
chasing power of money is greater in the
United States than in Sweden; that is
in comparison with wages. Sugar and
coffee there are higher priced than here.
The conveniences of farmers in this
country are far superior to those of the
old country. There the farmers are
sticking to the old method of farming.
Farm machinery is very high priced.

had cost them from 200 to 800 crowns
each. OF self binders did not see any,

DISGRACEFUL RUMOR.
A Story that Chii's Answer Was Received
 Before the
PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
Was Presented to Congress Going th' Rounds in England Branded as
 Pnltry Trick.

LONDON, Jan. 28.-Several Eng fish papers to-day print an alleged dispatch from Washington to the Dalziel Agency, in which it is as serted that President Harrison yes- terday informed the senate commit tee on foreign relations that the answer of Chili to the ul- timatum sent her on the 21st inst, was received before message was sent to congress, but that he was not aware of the con tents owing to the fact that it had not been translated into English un- til after the message had been de- livered to congress.
 Easing comments upon this asser- ton of the Dalziel Agency the St. James Gazette this afternoon publishes an article in which it says. If the story is true President Harrison is dis graeed and has made himself ridieu- lous. The story is not given as gossip, but as report of official proceedings of the senate committee on foreign relations. Such patty trick is inconceivable
 REPORTS IN ENGLAND.
 LONDON, Jan. 2S.-The Times to- day publishes dispatch from it's correspondent at Santiago, Chili, saying in reply to suggestions Chii expressed willingness to have either Spain or Brazil to act as mediator of her differences with the United States, but public opinion is in favor of submitting the questions to the arbitration of the supreme court of the United States.
 The correspondent further says the Chilian government is receiv- ing messages of sympathy from all parts of South America and the United States. He adds the American residents of Santiago pnblicly demand the cancelling of the execauatur of Mr. Wm. B. Me Creary, of the United States at Val paraiso.
 Reports from the United States received at Santiago declare that President Harrison has decided to recall Mr. Egan, the American minister.

SEVERAL STORES BURNED.
The Explosion of Lamp Causes Disa
 trous Fire.

JEANETTE, PA, Jan. 30.-Fire started last night in Welter's jewelry store from the explosion of lamp, and quickly spread to adjoining buildings on both sides, destroying the Jeanette Clothing House, Ely Brothers dry goods store, Geo. Wag- ener's shoe store, Haley s grocery, Burgess & Case's of- flee, Lowash & Fink's drug store, Seybold's hardware store, Keys grocery, Ambler's dry goods store, Merrill's jewelry store, Kraft's restaurant and Welter's S jewelry store. The upper stories of all these buildings were used as dwellings, and many occupants lost all their household effects. Nearly all goods saved from the stores were either ruined or stolen. The police were kept busy piloting thieves to the lookup.
 When the fire was at its height a frightened horse hitched to sleigh came tearing down Clay avenue and dashed through densely packed crowd. John Allison was thrown against the curb and received a ghastly cut on the head. A dozen others were thrown to the ground and more or less injured.

 CHARLESTON, s. C., Jan. 28.- The white Republican party recently organized in this state is making overtures to the straight-out Democracy, which was defeated by the Alliance movement in 1890.
 A secret circular sent a num- Der of prominent Democrats of the committee of 100 says:
 "We make this personal appeal to you to join us in our efforts to build up such party in the state as shall command recognition of state politics and prove of service in giving us a good government.
 "It is probably known to you that the old line of the Republican party in this state does not represent the inteli- gent and respectable adherents of the true doctrine of Republicanism This new movement eommends itself to large number of our best men, and there is certainly no reason why any man who loves liberty and justice, and has the real interest of the people at heart, may not assist unreservedly in promulgating it's principles"

SOCiETY-PAST, PRESENT AND
 FUTURE.

Far back in the morning of time, when the lips of God uttered the mighty fiat that brought into exist ence this earth of ours, when the stars of Heaven first beamed upon this desolate land and shed their glory upon the trackless waste of this planet, it entered into the mind of God to make man. And with this plastic hand He formed our first parents and placed them in the vine clad bowers of Eden. He gave them law for their guidance in their intercourse with each other, with posterity. and toward u. great Author of their being. But wheth- CT He gave them code of soci al ethics or not we are left to conjec- ture. Twas here He instituted the sacred ordinance of marriage, when the morning stars sang together in commemoration of the hallowed union of the parents of our race. He threw around them the sacred mantle of truth, levity, innocence and love.
 But ere long this mystic vail was torn aside, and falsehood, deceit and treachery, in the person of Satan, entered those consecrated grounds in which God, in His love for our race, had placed everything to gratify the physical, moral, mental and spiritual nature of man. For nearly 5000 years the world has been contending with these great enemies of humanity.
 For about 2000 years from ere ation people lived, died and were given back to mother earth, while each generation grew more and more enveloped in the dark mantle of wickedness and corruption until God regretted he'd made man and sent mighty deluge and swept from this domain every living being except Noah and his family. After forty days the waters began to abate and the earth at length be- came once more habitable. Then we see old Father Noah and his family slowly coming forth from the ark that had borne them in safety above the pillows of Divine judg- ment, and can imagine this old patriach saying like Alexander Sel- kirk:
 "'I am monarch of all l survey,
 My right there is none to dispute.
 Without much stretch of imagina- ton we cnn see that family of eight sitting down to devise some means by which to improve our antidelu- vian history socially, morally, politi cally and rehgiously. The worlds history had to begin anew, and as the ages go by, while we have no account of the social life of man, we find time seeking for something to satisfy that inherent longing for social intercourse, which has ever been the heritage of man. kind. To gratify this desire, we find them engaging in field sports, many of them such as are practiced in the present era. Nimrod was the knight of the bow and arrow, Benjamin was the hero of fstic honors, then came the Olympic games, which formed the era from which all events were dated, and which were the chief amusements of the Greeks.
