A STRIKING ADMISSION |
How the Mckinley Bill Helps American
at the Expense of British Interests.

How the Mckinley Bill Helps American
at the Expense of British Interests.
liverpool Echo. Sept 10, 1s92)
The outlook for British trade is decid
edly not encouraging just at present.
The effect Of the ''stone wall" of tariff
which our cousins in the United States
"a little more than kin and less than
kind"-have erected around their terri.
tory avowedly to keep out British man.
ufactures is every day becoming more
disastrously apparent in this country. AL.
ready Saltaire. that once proud model OF
an English industrial community, is
as good rs gone. The Welsh tin
plate industry is ruined, and the plush
trade Of Huddersfield is about to be
transferred bodily across the Atlantic tc
point within the tariff wall. The cot.
ton trade of Lancashire is so depressed
that no one knows what may come
next, and consequently all brisk enter.
prise is strangled and general feeling
of apprehension prevails as regards
what the morrow may bring forth. The
latest evidence of the injury done to
British trade by the Mckinley tariff
which, while not enriching the United
States population, but only the inter-
ested manufacturers, makes us on
this side poor indeed-is afforded
by the balance sheet of the Steel
Company of Scotland, which shows
balance on the wrong side Of
no less than thirteen thousand pounds,
Two questions which will soon force
themselves upon the minds of the work
ing people. to whom the continued
maintenance and prosperity of our in
dustries is the very bread Of life, are;
How long is this to last. and how may II
be remedied? 1t is extremely doubtful
whether the people of the United States
will have either the foresight or the
courage to abrogate, within any
reasonable period, law which
they are told by many Of their
most trusted leaders is the necessary
| premacy; and further, for some reason
which, on this side the Atlantic it is
difficult to comprehend, the operation Of
"twisting the British lions tail" appears
to be attended with supreme delight to
| the thoroughbred Yankee, and hardly
less so to the hybrid agglomeration Of
races which forms 30 large a portion OF
the population of the Republic. I'm
ioubtedly, failing the success at the
Presidential polling of Mr.. Cleveland
who has pledged his party to revenue
tariff, the future of British manu-
factures and of all subsidiary industries
depending upon them, is dark indeed
No doubt the old country will pull
through somehow, as she has done be
fore, but it is to be feared that if tht
Mckinley tariff is to be indefinitely
maintained it will be at cost in suffer
ing and poverty which it is at presen
impossible to estimate, and it may fur
ther involve permanent lowering o.
the greatly improved standard of com
fort which has been attained by tn
working classes of this country during
the present century.

Labor Conditions in America.

The American laboring classes are far
better paid, better fed, better clothed,
better taught and happier than those Of
France, and still more 30 than those Of
other countries in Europe. 1t is almost
discouraging to have to go back to my
country and paint picture in my re-
port which shows such contrast be-
tween the condition of things in Amer
ica and in France.-Paul Deschanel.

A. r. encampment at Washington, d.
c., on Wednesday evening, September
21st. He spoke at q camp fire and con-
cluded his remarks as follows
"You are going home now, and there
is something want you to take home
with you. Ponder it; teach it to your
children; tell it to your neighbors. 1t is
this truth. That the people of the
United States will see that no man is
ever elected to an Office of profit and
trust in this country who opposes the
payment Of pensions to the soldiers of

Such advice must be doubly forcible
when it is considered in the light Of the
record of the dier-statesman Benja-
min Harrison. 1t would be interesting
to rive Harrison's record as gallant

tinguished for bravery at Resaca and on

A Mermaid.

A strange story of the mermaid
GENES from Birsay, Orkney. The
other day a farmers wife was down at
the scashore there and observed a
strange marine animal sitting on the
rocks. AS it would not move she
sent for her husband. When she re-
turned with her better half they both
saw the animal clambering among the
rocks, about four feet of it, being
above water. The woman, who had
a splendied view OF it, describes it AS
a sgood-looking person." while the
man says it was ga woman covered
with brown hair" AT last the
couple tried to get hold of it, when it
took a header into the sea and dis
appeared. The man isconfident that
he has seen the tabled mermaid, but
people in the district are of opin-
ion that the animal must belong to
the seal tribe. An animal of similar
description was seen by several PEG.
pie at Decrness two years age.

Our Transatlantic Friends,

''The economy of the Europeans
surprised me at first" said an intelli-
gent woman who has lived abroad
for some time, sbut I soon saw the
wisdom of it. We lavish Americans
are inclined to jeer at the accounting
for candle ends in the household of IL
British peer or the careful thrift of
the German housewife who binds her
bed blankets with a deep, loosely
caught binding of cheese cloth to pre-
served the nap that comes off init
nitcsimally from handling in daily
bcdmaking; but after awhile we dis
cover that side by side with this
rigid avoidance of waste and needless
expenditure there are impressive re-
suits, and generous, handsome out
lays, They are all skilful, too, in
making the most of everything, much
more so than we with the Yankee in
gcnuity of which we boast-it seems
Inherent, not acquired. At this mo-
ment / think the French peasant
woman can serve for five SOUS a better,
more nourishing and appetizing meal
than scientific kitchens can put
forth for three times that sum, and
this with no disparagement TO the
latter. AS Il people VIC seem to lack
the faculty of getting the most out
OF the least: that is the maximum of
comfort out OF the minimum of eX-
penditure, in striking contrast to the
wisdom Of our friends across the
water"
