WHIcH IS BEsTP

The advocates of protection in
England are striking back with force
at their adversaries, and bringing
out some facts which ought to be
familiar, but are not. The impres.
sion that England is an absolutely
free trade country is far from being
correct. England, it is true, is not
protective tariff country, but it
may interest free traders to know
that no less than 500,0OO,O00 of
pounds sterling-about $2,5OO,00O,-
O0O-have been paid in customs
duties by English consumers since
1850, on tea, coffee, dried fruits and
tobacco, which is not produced in
England, while goods produced in
competition with English manufac-
lures have come in entirely free.
That is the difference between the
American tariff system and the
English system of customs duties is
that, while both nations collect large
sums of money on imports, the
United States imposes and exacts
duties on articles that compete with
American production, while England
permits home prediction to go un-
protected and leVIes duties on arti-
cles largely Of common necessity
which England does not produce.
Which of the two systems is the
best ought not to be difficult for
sensible men to determine. England
has seen important industries wane,
and her once fiourishing silk manu-
facture, for instance, almost entirely
disappear under the withering infu-

GRESHAM WILLING.

A sensation has been caused in
Peoples party circles by the
announcement that Walter Q. Gresh-
am had concluded to accept the
nomination for the presidency at the
hands Of the Peoples party, if ten
dered him.
The intelligence came in the form
of telegram from Henry Vincent,
editor of the Nonconformist, at In
dianapolis, to Judge G. II. Pirtle,
secretary of the Nebraska indepen-
dent state central committee.
1t was, in substance, that an inter-
view had been had with the judge
and that he had said he would ac-
cept the nomination from the Peo-
ple's party convention at Omaha if
allowed to stand on the platform
adopted at the recent conference of
the labor and industrial organiza-
tions at st. Louis.
Gresbam's declaration was the SUBJ
ject of enthusiastic comment by the
prominent Independents of Omaha.
They are pleased with it. Not
only, they say, because it adds a
strong man to the list of their availa-
BILE candidates, but because it signal
ICES in a decisive manner the disin-
tegration of the old parties. The
apostasy of so staunch Republican
as Judge Gresham, they declare, adds
an incalculable element of strength
to their party, even if Gresham's
name should not be placed at the
head of the ticket.
In the latter event they assert the
defeat of the Republican party next
November is certain.
An ex-Hoosier who is now resi-
dent of Omaha said last night that
if Gresham allowed the use of his
name to the Peoples party that the
third party would poll 10000 Repub-
lican votes in Indiana, and at least
5000 in Indianapolis.
The general secretary of the Peo-
ple's party, V. o. Strickler, yesterday
afternoon received from Chicago the
following telegram from M. H. Sla-
ter, the president of the Colorado
State Silver league:
81 want to secure a room suitable
for our silver league headquarters
during the national convention, of
eligible location and of the first I'M
portance. Can you get it for us?"
Strickler at once secured quarters
for the league and telegraphed back
that the league would be welcomed
to Omaha.

Supt. DeMier has inaugurated a

inmates capable of performing the
duties being designated to teach the
others. The law approprlates 5000
for supplying the necessary school
books. Lessons are given twice a
week, and the superintendent pro.
poses also to so arrange that con
vict unable to read or write shall
occupy a cell with one who does, so
that the ignorant will con stantly
have an opportunity to learn. They
will be taught both English and Span

QUEEN VICTORIA IN A LAW SUIT.

Victoria, queen OF Great Britain
and Ireland and empress of India,
appeared through counsel before
Justice Andrews of the supreme
court, in New York City, on motion
arising out of an action she has
brought against the Standard Asphalt
company, of 54Wall street, to recover
a cargo of asphalt valued at $4,000.
The defendant had moved to vacate
an attachment she had obtained on
the cargo.
The asphalt was taken, it is alleged,
from the island of Trinidad, owned
by the British crown, ,and was bought
by defendants in ignorance of any
dispute as to its ownership. Asphalt
by thousands of tons is taken in
Trinidad every year from Pitch Lake,
which is'a swamp of asphalt. The
British government has claimed part
of the asphalt territory, but the claim
has been disputed at Trinidad and
has been taken into the courts. This
is the first instance of the disputes
getting into American courts. The
"crown lawyers" consider it test
case, which may prevent promiscuous
digging for asphalt in Pitch Lake.
On Wednesday "the Crown" began
a replevin suit to recover the proper
ty, and obtained an attachment from
Justice Andrews of the supreme
court. The case was partly heard
Friday, and further argument was
adjourned until Monday. The queen
once began replevin suit in that
city, in conjunction with the sultan
of Turkey, to secure consignment
of arms of the Hartford Arms com
pany.
