BOSTON JOURNAL: Our people want
to see him (Stevenson). They want
to hear him explain why he joined
Vallandigham's copparhcals; why
he took the stump in Illinois in 1864
against Lincoln OF a platform declar-
ing the war a failure; why he was
several times elected to Congress as a
Greenbacker, and there voted for the
repeal OF the resumption act, and of
limited paper money and free silver
coinage; why, finally, under a Pvesi-

A Proclamation Of Retaliation.

The backing and filling Of the Cana
dian Government in the matter of the
discrimination against American ports
by Il rebate Of eighteen cents a ton on
grain going through the Welland Canal
to Canadian ports is now explained.
What expla MS it is President Harrison's
retaliation proclamation. The Canadian
Government, by fair promises to remove
the discrim IMITATION. but excuses for not
doing it till the end of the season,
hoped to fool the administration into q
failu g to use the power conferred by
the retaliation act. But the admins
tration took no stock in this Rip Van
Wrinkle pledge OF reform: We've sworn
off, but this time doesn't count"
The President says, in effect, that
this time has got to CONT. 1t makes no
difference whether Canada's British
masters like it or not. They have no
objection to trying to put the admins
tration in a hole and thus making q
contribution toward the election Of the
free trade candidate for President. But
President Harrison steps over the hole
with a fl IN tread, and puts his foot down
SO hat it can be heard on the other side
Of the Atlantic. His imposition OF a toll
of twenty cents a ton on Canadian
freight passing through u st. Mary's
Falls Canal is likely to make Canadian
shippers protest so loudly against Brit
ish violation Of treaty obligations as TO
compel the bumptious empire across the
sea TO cease trifing with Canada's local
interests for its selfish purposes. Some
day Canada will tell Great Britain she
declines to be a tender to British in
terests any longer. We declined that
subordinate station in l776, and agaIn In
1888, when BENJAMIN Harrison was
elected on the protection issue. The
President has the blood OF q signer in
his veins, and he is something OF a
signer OF declarations OF American in.
dependence himself. He signed the Nc.
kinley law and this proclamation. New

At that time he was opposed by Gen.
Palmer. one Of the best campaigners in
the Democratic parry in the West, and
was handicapped by an issue which
Palmer in%geniously raised, and which he
kept at the front during the whole can

about the evils Pinkertonism and tn,
expense which the system entailed upon
tho State. This artful demagogue
sought to show that the railroads were
in league with Pinkertonism, and that
the two elements, working together,
seriously oppressed the farmer. At that

over Only two years, and he had no
difficulty in reminding tho p%rcjudices OF

A Watch to Boil Eggs with,

An ingenious German has reduced 50

for that purpose fo- particular people.
The watch has a series OF dials to mark

single hand or pointer. The mechanism
marks the minutes and half minutes up

In 1890 Our imports OF barley were

In 1890 our imports OF barley were
IL, 332, 545 bushels. In 1891 imports
fell to 5,O78,73 bushels, and they
would have been less but for the
great rush Of barley from Canada in
September before the new tariff
passed. But the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1892, was wholly under the
Mckinley law, and what was the re-
suit: Simply that we imported only
3, l46, 337 bushels, a decrease OF
8, 1856, 2OS bushels, which represents
the increased market of homegrown
barley. Is this a benefit or an injury
to American farmers?

The administration Of President Har-
rison has been in keeping with his per-
sonal character-cleap, able, tonserv-
alive. dignified, and patriotic. He has
naturally gathered about him men who
sympathize with him in his views and
resemble him more or less in character.
The general tone Of the administration
has been impaired to it by it's chief, and
there have been no grave scandals. de-
falcations or other sta rs to mar its
good name. The search lights Of pollt-
icah Investigations, seeking campaign
ammunition, have brought to view
nothing that challenges criticism. An
