In further comment upon the labor
troubles at Homestead, Harper's Weekly
dissects this week the protectionist con-
tenton that high tariffs make high
wages. This is the great contention
that has always been relied on by the
high tariff advocates to caiole the votes
of labor, and, although recent happen
ings in the very hot-bed of protection
have forced them to modify this conten-
ton very much indeed, yet they are still
dodging around in the shadow thereof
and, while shutting their eyes to Hun
garian colonies and such like products
of their pet system, are pretending to
great fear lest any tightening of tariff
taxes should send the country to the
demnition bow-wows instanter. AS
Hdrper's says;
f, A large portion of the labor vote has
| actually been won in that way for the high
taritf policy, and it is by no means sur
Uprising that the workingnen should have
taken the representations made to them
seriously. According TO what they have
been told, they have reason to believe that
the tariff laws were made specifically for
their benefit that in the matter of employ.

Yes, Mondays thermometer
of sales marked the highest of
any August day since the store
opened, one Monday morning
in March, going on sixteen
years ago. There are reasons
for business creeping up and
up in this plain, old, unmodern
building, covering a village of
busy people, with miles of
floor streets, gas and water
pipes, etc., ETC., upon plans
evolved by one thinking head
and organized by one firm
hand.
These reasons are that

One very important service rendered
to the country by the Democratic House

and endorsed the Stewart bill, il is
doubtful whether President Harrison

The Brooklyn board Of aldermen
passed an ordinance giving away valua-
BILE franchises for the construction Of Il
street car line, notwithstanding the fact
that other parties had offered to pay the
city for those franchises. Notonly this.
but when the mayor had vetoed the
ordinance, those generous aldermen
passed it over his veto hy vote Of is Ia
2. Now certain indignant citizens who
donot favor such generosity with public
property, are preparing to take the grant
INTO the courts and to ask the courts to
declare the same Illegal and void, or, if
the grant is held TO be legal, then to
compel the aldermen who put ii through
to pay to the city, as individuals, the
amount offered for the franchises by the
competing street railway company.
Since public opinion accounts for this
strange action Of the board by assuming
that IL was clear case of bargain and
sale, there would be no injustice done
by requiring these boodlers to recoup
the city out of their private funds. But
a supposition that rests upon the cor

Profits OF Baai.

The half yearly meeting Of the share
holders of the gambling company of
Monte Carlo was held recently. To be
able TO vote a shareholder must own at
least 200 new shares of 500 francs original
value. or $4,000 worth OF stock, and
the management is therefore in few
hands.
The total receipts from the gaming
tables last year amounted to q 900
francs. or 81, 200, 900. This is an advance
of S20O,O0O over the previous year.
Each share bears a fixed annualinterest
of S125, or per cent. interest upon the
present value, and IS per cent upon the
original value.
About so, 900 is placed to the account
of publicity, which Is the term used by
the managers for payments to certain
yenal but influential newspapers for
their tolerant attitude toward the con-

The actual working expenses in sala-
ries 10 the immense staff of crouplers,

troupe, the orchestra Of the Casino and
the like, amount TO considerably over
