A Penguin City.

During our recent cruise, writes
Falkland Island correspondent, we
went ashore on a seQuestered island,
penguin city," Sure enough, the
whole island, comprising perhaps fifty
acres, was laid off in regular squares,
by streets running at right angles,
the lines straight and true as sur
veyor could have drawn them. AS is
well known, penguins spend their
lives on the water except during the
breeding season, when they are
obliged to seek the shore. You will
hardly believe me, but it is neverthe-
less true, that the birds not only lay
out their city in blocks, but pick up
all the loose stones, till the whole
place is as smooth as board floor.
Then they take possession, in couples,
each pair selecting home site-not
to build a nest, but merely TO pre-
empt particular spot on the bare
ground.
The hen lays one egg, and only one,
and during the time Of incubation the
male bird brings her food from the
sea, or sits on the egg while himself
if she wants TO go out and take a
swim. But in this case, as in many
others, virtue is not "its own exceed
ing great reward" because the lady
penguins grow so fat and sleek under
the good care of their faithful hus-
bands that they are the more eagerly
hunted at that particular season.
The old birds are too tough and tlshy
to be relished by man or beast, but
the tender young matrOns are in great
demand, both for their oil and flesh.
Even the eggs have an oily and tishy
flavor, and taste as hens eggs might
if cooked in kerosene.
The penguin is by no means hand
some or graceful creature. He has
wings, like any other bird, but they
are altogether too short TO fly with,
though they may assist him some
what in waddling over the ground.
When in the water he has no use for
wings, because his broad feet, webbed
like those of duck, propel him rap
idly. There are several varieties of
them, the largest, called the "empe-
ror penguin" weighing from twenty
five to forty pounds. 1t is funny to
see a colony of these ungainly birds
marching up and down the streets
like soldiers, all the time standing
erect and maintaining an air o. great
dignity and importance.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1892-05-04


rise lightly into the air. From its
fine harbor the city locks extremely
grand and well deserves its Italian
name, Genoa the Proud. In reality
its streets are narrow, tOrtuous
lanes, impossible, most of them,
for any vehicle except hand cart.
On either hand high buildings tower
aloft, many Of them fine architecture
ally, but the effect is spoiled by the
narrOwness Of the street and the con-
sequent gloom. The city boasts many
splendid palaces, magniticently con-
structed Of finest marbles, and adOrn-
ed with paintings and sculpture.
These are rented to travellers or
turned into hotels. The vestibules,
often adorned with marble columns,
are thronged with booths Of petty
trades-people.
The city has lately erected monu-
ment to Columbus, and his house is
preserved by the government. 1t is
in a narrow street, the end Of which
is filed by the venerable arch built to
resist Frederick Barbarossa several
hundred years before Columbus
birth. The lower part Of the house
is boarded up, and the whole place is
in very bad repair.

Those Rags from BeGgars' Backs.

Representative Dingley, of Maine, in
the House,
The gentleman from Tennessee (Mr.
McMillin) further said:
"They"-the wooden manufacturers
"have been forced to use shoddy as
substitute for wooden goods; the rags
that had already fallen from the backs
of beggars in other countries have been
used as substitute for WOOL"
And he has presented bill which he
advocates as a remedy. What is the
remedy? The difficulty, according to
his statement, is that rags, as David A.
Wells asserts, laden with disease and
fraud, are imported and put by Ameri-
can manufacturers into WOODEN cloth.
Now, what is the provision Of the gen.
tleman's bill respecting shoddy and
WOODEN rags? Shoddy is simply wooden
rags passed through machine fed by a
boy at nominal expense, whereby the
rag fibers are torn apart and converted
into " hat is known as rag wool or shod-
dy.
Now, the gentleman proposes to ex-
clude the importation of shoddy in a
freewool bill by imposing duty of %
per cent. upon it. But what does he
do with rags, WOODEN rags, disease
laden rags" "rags permeateG with
fraud all through ?" He puts them on
the free list Rags that can be con-
verted for less than l cent a pound into
shoddv are placed on the free list, while
shoddy is placed at % per cent. ad
valorem. That may be good for the
purposes of electioneering talk upon
the platform, but for a scientific adjust
ment OF duties in a tariff bill, what shall
De said of it?
The shoddy which has been passed
through the machine, mingled with oils,
has been disinfected, ifthere was any dis
ease lurking in it; but the rags, the dis
ease laden rags" according to David A.
Wells, if either shoddy or WOODEN rags
ever do bring disease, are placed on the
free list. In the Mckinley tariff act
the duty is absolutely prohibitory on
these rags.
Mr.. Simpson-Will the gentleman be
kind enough to state what the duty on
rags in the Mckinley act is
Mr.. Dingley-Thirty cents a pound
practically prohibitory. The disease
laden rags" which gentlemen com
plain may come into this country
under the Mckinley law and be con-
verted into clothing are practically pro-
hibited by that law by duty of 30 cents
pound, and almost none were import
ed last year The gentleman from Ten
nessee, to cure the evil that he conjures
up in the Mckinley tariff, brings in 1,

only.
And again:
With the reduction of 18 per cent. the
abandonment. to u great extent, of sheep
raising must inevitably follow, ii the per-
nicious course deslgned%by the Republican
party Is allowed to be carried out
We-are curious to know what the
Democrats who industriously circulated
that document in 1888 have to say OF
the Springer free-wool bill. And what
consequences they think must newt
ably follow" the total abolition Of wool
duties? But the Ohio campaigners did
not confine themselves to general state
ments merely. but assumed tospeak for
the Democratic party. Said they:
The Democratic party, as the facts show,
have been steadily and earnestly opposed
to the preparation OF this great wrong
against the people.
So it seems that the Mckinley prices
lies, and the snap Judgment wrenched
from the people by them in 1890, were
not new dodge of the Democrats 1t
is not without interest to also note that
the campaign Of lying of 1888 wac sue
cessful, too, Democratic governor
having been elected by agood plurality.
But then, as now, the triumph was
brief. Ohio went for Blaine with a
whoop the next year, just as it went for
Mckinley last year and will 90 for the
Protectionist candidate this fall. And
the other states whose people were lied
to in 1890 will follow Ohio's example.
The day of wrath for the Mckinley
prices liars is drawing near. 1t rarely
paws to lie.

How tn Fail.

If the Republicans lie down and take
it easy because Of the victories in local
elections in Rhode Island and JERSEY
City, if they begin to indulge in wran-
giles for precedence and battles for the
satisfaction of personal ambition or for
the spoils they are going to win, they
will only make the same ridiculous
blunder the Democrats have been max
ing ever since November, 1890. 1t does
not become Republicans to follow Dem
ocratic example in anything. When
the victories of 1890 appeared to insure
Democratic success in a presidential
election, all the factions of that
party at once began Kill
kenny cat fight for the nomination
and the control of the party organiza-
ton. They are at it yet, and mean
while the prospects of the party have
sunk SO far that they are hard to see.
When Republicans all realized that
they had a fierce and doubtful struggle
before them, there was general willing
ness to look out for the party first, and
to let individual ambitions and appe-
tites wait. But since recent victories
have brought great encouragement,
there are some signs of disposition TO
wrange about place and rank and the
distribution of the spoils. The thing
for good Republicans to do in everv
part of the country is to set loot on this
disposition.
True. Rhode Island means un-
broken and irresistible Republican
ranks in New England. Local elections
in New York and New Jersey mean
that the Democratic party is more
broken and weakened by its own crimes
than il has been before for many years.
Elections at the West mean that the
Republicans are stronger there than
they have been at any time since 1888.
All these things offer a grand oppor-
tunity. There will be needed patient
and exceedingly earnest effort to edu-
cate the people, not to miration
of this or that candidated, but to

William G. Lowering illustrated very
forcibly the debtor and creditor view of
the Tree silver coinage question, in his
speech to the Republican State Conven-
ton, held in Boston. He said:
Il employ 800 workmen. They are
my creditors. | am always in debt to
them; they never owe me dollar.
Wherever a person works for wages, on
the farm, on the railroad, in the mill or
in the mine, there is a creditor who will
be asked, nav, compelled, to take 90
cents on the dollar for his wages. He
will go to the savings bank, where he
has deposited in this commonwealth

lent, and will receive 81 cents less on
