"A FREE TRADE SCHEME.

New York Press.
Certain advocates of the Springer Free
Wool bill, in and out of Congress, have
impudently asserted that it was in no
sense free trade measure, but that it
was founded on the principle of moder-
ate protection. The view of the bill
has been persistently urged where it
would do the most good. In other
quarters the mask has been thrown off
and the bill paraded as a striking illus
tration of pure and simple free trade.
The leading free trade Democratic organ
or this city triumphantly declares that
"the bill abolishing the duty on raw
wool and reducing the duty on manu-
factured woolens strikes at the very base
of the protective system" The organ
tells the truth.
The Springer bill is a free trade
scheme. 1t "strikes at the very base of
the protective system" by providing for
the extinction of the vast industry that
last year produced 350,000,000 pounds
of Americon wool, and by reducing the
duty on manufactured woolens to a
point where it no longer protects the
operative in the woolen factory from
competition with the cheap labor of
other lands. Its enactment would re-
suit, as Mr.. Springer himself proclaims,
''in very great increase in importa-
tions." 1t is framed throughout in the
interest of foreign woolgrowers and
manufacturers and against the interest
of our own wool-growers and manufac-
turers. 1t is as un-American as the
record and purposes of the party that is
behind it.
Fortunately for the nation Democrat
ic control in the national government is
confined to theHouse of Representatives.
While Republicanism is intrenched in
the Senate and the White House the
agents of British free trade are power
less to break down American industries.

UBLIC OPINION.
HOW IT WORKS.

Cleveland Leader.
Some one has kindly sent US a copy OF
the Northern Wing, of Belfast, Ireland,
date of February 1, 1892, containing
marked editorial that will not be with
out interest in the United states in the
present tariff agitation. 1t records that
the Belfast Ropework Company has just
euioyed a visit from the Marquis of
Londonderry Qate Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland), Sir West Ridgway (under Sec
retary for lreland) and several other in
Huential gentlemen, all of whom were
anxious to inspect the flourishing works.
1t appears that "the unprecedented pro-
gress made by this company during the
past ten years has now made it one of
the most interesting and important in
dustries in the North" and the editor
remarks that sin consequence of the
great demands now made upon the
company for orders from the United
States further extensions are in contem-
plation, and the directors have at this
moment before them estimates for the
erection of mill for the special purpose
of supplying binder twine suitable to
the United States requirene ents," as
1.-The recent reduction of import duty
upon same into the United States has
now enabled British manufacturers to
compete successfully with United States
makers" The editor concludes with
qualification that this twill give en-
ployment to many additional hundreds
of hanLs"
Here is Congressman Springer's chance.
Among the hole picking bills which he
intends to have introduced by way of
making war on the Mckinley law is one
putting binder twine on the free list.
This is even better than the British
capitalists could wish. Even moderate
duty on binder twine enables the Belfast
factory, by reason of cheap labor, to
undersell the manufacturers in the
United States, but Congressman Spring
er's Ways and Means Committee decided
to 60 further by way of oblig;ng the
British manufacturers and give them
free entry into the United States. Thus
the "many additional hundreds of
hands" can be furnished employment in
Belfast, while the binder-twine industry
in this cuntry is destroyed and "many
additional hundreds" of American work
men are deprived of employment.
This is the Democratic way of taking
care of American industries and Amer
ican labor.

SUCH Is FAME.

Philadelphia Inquirer.
Tom Ochiltree is famous all the world
over as a raconteur, but his fame is but
slightly due to his own efforts. Here is
how Ochiltree gained his fame. A Wash
ington correspondent of a newspaper
made bet with another man that he
could take any member of Congress and
make him known all over the country.
They looked over theHouse of Represen
tatives together and finally picked out a
new member from Texas, who had a
red head.
Then the correspondent went to work
to make his redheaded protege famous.
How well he succeeded is shown by the
fame which Ochiltree now enjoys. The
correspondent wrote numerous good sto-
ries and sent them to his papers credit
ed to Ochiltree. He told these stories to
other newspaper men who also used
them. The stories were bright, and,
therefore, were copied all over the coun-
try. Soon everybody had heard of Och
iltree's stories, and it began to be the
fashion with Washington correspond
ents to credit anonymous stories to
him.
Ochiltree read the stories and told
them again. He was naturally rather
clever man and knew how to take ad
vantage of the opportunity offered. The
result was that he is now one of the best
known men in the United States, al
though he is not as well known now as
he used to be, as not as much is printed
about him.

SOFT MONEY.

What It Did For the Country in the Days
of Andrew jackson.
Chicago Tribune.
The Farmers Alliance organizations
ars pressing their demands for the issue
by the general government of billions
of "fiat," which is to be redeemable
neither in coin, lands nor products, but
is to be based ON 'the credit and re-
sources of the nation" Their represen-
tatives in Congress are introducing bills
for the printing and distribution of this
stuff, which if loaned out to farmers and
planters on the scale they propose
would be as abundant as the leaves in
autumn. and as valuable, for while
few millions of it might be f1oated by
the government, if received by it for
its dues, larger issue would he waste
paper.
One of the Alliance leaders said that
he has mot heard single valid argu-
ment against the sub-treasury scheme
which contemplates flood of "fiat,"
which is to be convertible into nothing
and which will be therefore exchanged
BILE for nothing, The best arguments
against these wild projects are facts, and
if this Alliance man were familiar with
the history of his country he would know
dozens of forcible answers to his fcllies.
There have been various attempts in
this country to run its business with
paper money, which, while pretending
to be redeemable in specie, was not.
One of them was made during President
Jackson's administration and plunged
the United States into financial difficult
ties, the effects of which were felt for a
quarter of century. The charter of
the first United States bank, the child of
the creative genius of Hamilton, expired |
in 1911. That of the second one was |
granted in 1916 to run twenty years. |
In 1880 the bank was furnishing
currency which was readily accepted |
the Union. Its notes were |
at par everywhere, and, in the Western |
and Southern States, commanded a
slight premium over silver, because
they could be shipped at less expense.
These notes were not legal tender, but
the people knew that the bank could and
would redeem them in specie whenever
presented The bank had the govern
ment deposits, and had them safely.

as Gallatin called him, had a

One of Barnum,s ucements.

About the time Blind Tom started out
to show his wonderful gifts Macon de-
veloped musical prodigy. though in a
different line. In the alley back of Eads,
Neel & Co.'S store was a blacksmith
shvp owned by man named English. a
quiet sort of man and very popular in
his business. One day he bought his
three-year-old boy a drum-it might
have been gift from Santa Claus-and
great was his astonishment when the
baby ratified away on the drum with the
skill of a professional.
OF course such a precocious boy soon
became known to Macon, and mention
of it fell under the eye of P. T. Barnum,
who was then in his prime. The great
Snowman sent an agent to Macon as
fast as steam and coach could bring
him. After a good deal of parleying
the agent succeeded in securing young
English, it being understood that his
mother would accompany him. Then
the New York papers were filled with
mention of 1.-The Infant Drummer" and
for years he was one of the features of
Barnum's museum.-Macon (Ga.) Tel

DRUNKEN sPARROWS.

Chicago Inter-Ocean.
He was a bright boy. He had exhaust
ed every scheme he had thought of in
connection with the capture eff the spar
rows. To the nearest drug store he
went. He carried with him bottle
and some money. A little while after
he showed the bottle and its contents to
some men.
81 had to lie to get de alcohol" he
said, "but told de fellie dat it wuz for
a cop, an he give to me-"
In a tin pan he poured his alcohol.
Then he thoroughly soaked some oats in
the deadly spirits and scattered tempt
ing meal in the yard.
The plan worked. Six drunken spar
rows were picked up out of the first
batch that tackled the oats. They were
helpless and sorry looking birds when
the boy pulled their heads off, and if the
supply of alcohol and oats holds out that
boy will have big string of sparrow
heads to cash in with City Clerk Van
Cleave.

Met His Match at Last.

He had climbed Mont Blanc's smooth,
icy heights and stood upon the top; he'd
traced the Nile clear to its source. with
ne'er thought to stop; he'd tramped
across Sahara's wastes till he was like to
drop; he'd fought on many a bloody
field and heard the bullets pop: he'd
cleaned out gangs of ruffians and never
called cop; he'd brought full many an
elephant to mother earth, kerfiop, and
caused the savage tiger to enjoy its final
hop; and his bravery had cost him many
a scar.
But when he returned to Boston hero's
honors for to share, he acted like man
whom it was no big job to scare; he'd
run and hide behind the trees. and high
would raise his hair; he'd tremble and
he'd shake and blanch, in evident de-
spair: his heart would beat. his eyes
would bulge and he would cry, BE

Self Conceit versus Self Confidenoe.

While conceit may produce mega
lively agreeable effect iteannot be called
a positive charm. We do not think a
person more charming because of his
conceit. and we do not encourage it in
those who are dear to Us. A parent re-
presses rather than stimulates it in his
child, and person who should plainly
and laboriously cultivate it would not
be in peril of canonization. 1t is doubt
full if conceit ever accompanies real
greatness. A great man, indeed. may
have the self confidence that springs
from the consciousness of power; but
consciousness of power is very different
from conceit of it. The one is fact;
the other a fancy.-George William
Curtis in Harper's.
