A british View of Our Tariff

The promoters of the Mckinley
tariff meant it to push forward the
policy of America for Americans. One
method of realizing it was to keep all
work within their own dominions. The
country was TO be made sclf-supplying;
what could be produced at home was
not to he bought abroad. That was
the keynote of the Mckinley scheme
and it is working out the idea of its de-
signers with the precision and effect
iveness of a machine. - Sheffield Daily

a Flower


The Grand Canon of the Colorado river,
in Arizona, is now for the first time easily
accessible to tourists. A regular stage
line has been established from Flagstaff,
Ari., on the Atlantic & Pacific railroad,
making the trip from Flagstaff to the most
imposing part of the Canon in less than
twelve hours. The stage fare for the round
trip is only $50, and meals and comfortable
lodgings are provided throughout the trip
at a reasonable price. The view of the
Grand Canon afforded at the terminus of
the stage route is the most stupendous
panorama known in nature. There is also
a trail at this point leading down the
Canon wall more than 5000 feet vertically
to the river below The descent of the trail
is grander experience than climbing the
Alps, for in the bottom of this terrific and
sublime chasm are hundreds of mountains
greater than any of the Alpine range
A book describing the trip to the Grand
Canon, illustrated by many full-page en-
cravings from special photographs, and
furnishing all needful information, may be
obtained free upon application to Jno. j.
