niacyeagh's Appeal.

If the great masses OF our fellow citi-
gems are taught the hard lesson that for
them there isuo such hope, and that this
government is r government OF tho rtch,
by the rich. aud for the rich, no man
need be much Of a prophet to foretell
the inevitable result. He has read hu-
man history 10 little purpose who has
not learned that since the declaration Of
our Independence no privileged class, by
any device whatever, has long retained
for themselves the government Of great
civilized nation. Much less can such
control be retained by the corrupt use OF
mere money.
i earnestly beseech, therefore, every
true lover Of his country; every man
who believes that the right Of private
property ought TO be held sacred under
the law; every man who believes that
diverstes of condition add to the grace
and dignity Of life; every nan who be-
lieves that wealth need not be used as
an instrument Of corruption or OF OPP
preston, but as an agency Of innumera-
ble blessings, TO join in resisting by his
voice and his vote the growing tendency
OF rich men TO corrupt the sovereignty
and thereby destroy our common birth
right in this great and noble American
republic.
However we may deceive ourselves,
the laboring men Of the nation can no
longer be deceived. They would regard
the reelection Of President Harrison as
another result Of tho undue influence
and the unlawful use Of wealth, and,
on the other hand, they would see the
dawning of brighter day for govern
ment of the people, by the people and
for the people in the election Of Grover

HOW PROTECTION PRoTecTs.
ucKiniey's True Opinion of tho Tariff Tax.

DcKiniey's True Opinion OF tho Tariff Tax.
When KcKinley was explaining and
defending in the house, in May. 1890,
the tariff bill which bears his name and
had recently been reported by his ways
and means committee, he said, with
reference TO the paragraph Of the bill
repeating 1.-THE provision In the law per-
mitting the United States (government)
90 import for its use any articles free Of
duty"
81 his provision Of law has been elm
mated in the proposed revision, and II
approved by the house and senate and
the president, the government, it's OFF,
GERS. agents and contractors will here
after have 10 pay the same duties which
lis citizens generally are required TO
pay"
In the same speech he said, with refer
erce 10 a provision In the old law per-
mitting travellers returning from abroad
10 import articles as personal effects"
free Of duty:
The practical effect Of this provision
was that the wealthy classes who were
able 70 visit distant countries secured
exemption from the payment Of duties.
while the average citizen, unable 10 go
abroad. was compelled to pay n duty
upon the articles which he might want
10 use."
In those days Mckinley, fresh from a
prolonged study of the taIif, believed
and SAID that the tariff duties were paid
by "citizens generally" or 1.-THE average
citizen"-that they were, as Senator
bherman said, "taxes upon the people"

What Protection Costs.

The tariff on tin plates now causes the
price here to exceed by at least SIC, ,O00.-
600 n year the price abroad. Our wooden
goods cost us at least 800, ,000, 900 year
inore than the same things cost in Eu-
rope. SO with our glass, our earthen-
ware and many other indispensable
things, Altogether our protected arti-
rles cost us annually not less than $780,
100000 in excess of what unprotected
foreigners pay for tho same quantity Of
similar things. OF this sum only $200,-
100000 20 70 our government; the re-
manning $500, 600, 900 go into the pockets
Of individuals. But the whole amount
j. tax upon the people. The smaller
tum is a tax for public purposes; the
larger sum is "a tax for private profit

FEDERAL ELECTION oFflclALs.

As there seems TO be more or less misap-
prehenslon in regard to the duties OF the
Federal election officers that have been
appointed for the election next Tuesday
it may be well to enlighten the public a
little upon the matter.
In the first place these officers are APP
pointed simply for the purpose Of seeing
that the national election is properly con-
Quoted. They have nothing to DO what
ever with the municipal election which is
carried on at the samo time. The Federal
supervisors have no authority whatever.
They cannot act in regard to any matter
They are to report any irregularity that
may come under their observation and
nothing more. No marshal is to be al
lowed within the rail in any ward room.
The Supreme Court Of the United states
has declared the same unlawful.
The Federal Supervisors are not to count
any votes. They are 20 keep "a record of
the votes counted by those authorized TO
count them. They are not to be allowed
to handle the ballots. As these officers
have been appointed Tor no good purpose
whatever except to filch money out o. the
public treasury, let it 10 he looked 10 in
every ward that the strict letter Of the law
be carried out. The Warden is the duly
authorized officer 70 conduct the election
and let him carry out his duty as tho law
directs.
We want no bulldozIug here and we
don't mean To Layo any.

POPULAR SCIENCE NOTES.

A new method of impregnating logs
with zinc chloride in order to preserve
them is now in use in Austria, being
known as the Pfister process. The tim
Der is impregnated in the forest as soon
as possible after it is felled.
It is said that an excellent cure for
lameness in horses is to put them into
swimming tank. In swimming the horse
takes the same or even more violent ex-
ercise than he would trotting on the
track, while there can be no injury to feet
or limbs.
According to Lord Rayleigh, If the
heat engines of the future are at all
analogous to our present steam engines,
either the water, rs the substance first
heated, will be replaced by fluid Of less
inherent volatility, OF else the volatility
Of the water will be restrained by the
addition to It of some body held in
solution.
