Secretary Blaine Resigns.


Ahe country was on Saturday last
treated to genuine surprise when SEQ.
rotary Of State James @. Blaine, in a
grief letter ten Tered bis resignation to
The President. 10 letter equally as
brief the resignation was accepted by Mr..
Harrison. All over the country the
resignation, and the probable reasons
which aciuated the Secretary, we're the
subject of discuss On. not alone in poiiti-
cal clubs, bat in social clubs, in hotel
'orriders. and Eherever men are wont to
congregnte The general conclusion ar
rived at appears to be that Mr.. Blaine
has been over persuaded By his friends
not 70 continue in his determination to re-
Fuse to allow his name to be used as a
candidate for the presidential nomination,
and that his resignation means that he
is candidate aud will accept the nomi-
nation at Minneapolis IL he .su secure it,
The Bhinc men are wild with delight
because Of the resignation, and sly that
now Mr.. BlaiHe's nomination and cleo
ton are insured beyond doubt, while
the Harrison men are equally sanquine
that the chances Of the President are not
impaired in the slightest degree BY the
sudden about face Of Mr.. Blaine on bis
position as candidate for the nomination.
Fiat one or the other Of the two greatest
statesmen Of this age will be nominated
there Is no doubt. and that either. be-
csuse Of the great accomplishments Of

goes without saying. and that the coun-

Free Traders Parallzed.

The free traders in the United States
are much wor, 10 | over Lord Salsbury's
speech declaring free trade failure, and
they are trying to devise ways and means
to break the paralizing effect Of this ad-
mission Of the British Premier upon the
free trade propaganda in this country
The Louisville Ccurier-Jour 1al says that
1t long ago pointed out that the aPpli-
cation Of this doctrine to us by Great
Britain. who buys of us every year sew
eral hundred million dollars worth 10
excess of what she sells us. would lead
to the imposition of discriminating duties
upon our exports" Hence it tries
to scare people by saying that "reciproc-
i'y being retaliation" We "should lwake
to the fact that retaliation is two-edged
sword"
The Courier-J Journal i, disingenuous
This argument is completely nulli6ed by
Lord Salsbury's own declaration, in the
same speech. as follows:
ave complain most of the United
States. and it SO happens that the United
States mainly furnishes US with articles
which are essentia. to the good Of the
people, and with raw material which is
essential to our manufacturers. We
cannot exclude either without serious in-
jury to ourselves am not prcpa ed.
in order to punish other countries. TO in
tic, dangerous wounds on ourselves"
Which is to say, that Lord Salisbury
thinks it unxise, if not impossible, for
England to place duties upon English
imports from the United States because
the great bulk of them are the necessa-
ries of life which cannot be produced at
homo in sufficient quantities. The Brit
ish premier was careful to have it under
stood that his words we're prompted by
no desire to retailable against the United
States Hence the Courier-Journal
shrek is robbed entirely Of its inpres-
siveness.
The New York Times, a leading free
trade Democratic sheet. tries to break
he crushing force of Lord Salisbury's
speech by evolving the theory that it
was designed to capture the British sgri-
cultural vote by promising protection
against American breads,uffs. This is
as untenable as the COurier-Journal's
theory. The above ex ract from Lord
Salisbury's speech shows that he consid-
ers it to be impossible to retaliste against
American food products, because Eng
land cannot get along without them
The free traders will have to try again.
If Lord Salisbury had tried, he could not
have madc stronger argument in favor
Of our protection and reciprocity policy.

The difference between Democratic
theory aud Republican ptactice-between
lucapaci'y and business ability-is shown
in the removal Of the prohibition Of the
importation Of american hog products
by European countries. The Demo-
Gratis lamented over this prohibition. and
theorised that the only possible way Of
getting it removed was to adopt free
trade. The Republican administration
set to work in business-like way to
have il removed. Au efficient inspec-
ton law was passed by congress for the
proper inspection of all pork offered for
export; proper representations we're then
made in Europe; Germany was the first
nation to withdraw the prohibition, aud
in less than nine months France, Aus
tria, Denmark, Italy and Spain have
followed her example. American pork
can now be sold 10 Europe on the same
terms as the pork Of other nations. The
markets thus thrown 0pes to the farmers

The real question about immigration
is less the danger from the sheer num-
Der Of people than from the abuse Of nat

grave abuses that now disgrace most 81

the remedy, Prof. Moore, late Assistant
Secretary Of State, says:
The Obvious intention Of Congress
was that naturalization Of aliens should
be judicial process, resulting in for
NAL and recorded judgment Of The court.
In the early times, when the principal
legislation on the subject was framed,
this end was easily attained. The basis
Of the law now in force was laid in the
act Of 1902. The number Of immigrants
who came to the United States 10 1920
was only slightly greater than that Of
the persons who have in recent years
been admitted to citizenship in a single
court in the days preceding a general
election. The process Of naturalization
has now degenerated into clerical act.
attended with scarcely 50 much fOrnali,y
as the ordinary certi6cation Of record.
Immediately before elections. when the
greatest care should be exercised, men
are brought info our courtrooms BY the
hundred, and admitted to citizenship as
rapidly as the meagre printed forms can
be 6lled up and signed. In many cases
applicants are not even swern upon their
so-called examinations. and the Witness
es, who are admitted to prove their quail
i6cations are sometimes professional per-
jurers, utterly without knowledge Of tue
facts as to which they assume to testify.
1t is not extravagant to say that in this
way thousands Of persons have been en-
abled to participate in our elections with
out ever having fulfilled the requirement
as to residence prescribed by our natu-
raliEatiOn laws"

Locked by Accident in an Ice Chest.
From the Syracuse Standard.
Henry Williams Is a colored waiter
at the Yates house, Syracuse. The
other evening he played solitary
game of freeze out that he will re-
member whenever he thinks of the
Yates. He threw up his hands be-
fore the deal was halt over. The mat.
ter came about accidentally. A
theatre party (stag) came in for q
game supper. Wine. Philadelphia
squad, Stalled pigeon, ETC.. were
required. Henry was sent down to
the refrigerator in the basement to
bring up the game. That ice
box is a monster. 1t has a spring door,
with spring-lock attachment, so that
in order to keep it open it must be
held back with catch. Harry opened
the door, and knowing the party to
Re In o hurry, dove in to the ice-chest.
The door came to with q bang; the
spring. lock worked to perfection and
Henry found himself alone with
10000 pounds OF XXsX ice; the coolest
and most perfect ice he had ever seen.
He hammered on the door, yelled and
hlChCu up q iO", hO
seemed to be treated as coldly by the
wide world outside as he was by the
ice inside. After fifteen minutes he
began to realize what an expedition
to the North Pole meant. He was
getting stiff. Henry is not old, and he
felt 1t would not be right for one so
young to freeze to death. He began q
song and dance there in the dark,
with kicking accompaniment t, exter-
nal and internal, that, had it been
put upon stage, would have entitled
him to q salary of $l3 week.
Henry not returning within the
proper time with the game, search
was made. The ice box was visited,
but the door was shut and every
thing was in order there. The cor
ridor, the bar and other parts of the
hotel were covered in the rounds for
the missing waiter. Several attaches
of the hotel were found who had seen
Henry go below, but no one who had
seen him return. Another visit was
made to the refrigerator and the wild
and blood-freezlng screams Of the inn
prisoned man were family heard,
like voice from under the ground.
He was released, and now his fellows
at the hotel have only to mention
game" to cause him to turn pale.
