of Protection.
That portion of the presidents mes
sage which is not devoted to review
OF the reports from the several depart
ments of the government is mainly a
laborious and ridiculous argument de-
signed to convince the great majority
of the American people that they did
not know what they were doing when
they voted against the republican
party and the protective tariff thievery.
The very best that may be said of the
message as a whole is that II Is a
powerful enunciation of q cardinal
principle of genuine republication
shat the people are incapa bic of self
government and lack the ability to de-
ternine for themselves what policy Of
government Is better calculated to ad-
vance their prosperity.
The president draws largely on the
ter's census reports for figures to prove
that the business, wealth and other
material interests of the country have
enormously increased since 1860. He
speaks OF this development and prog
rcss as though they had not been fully
understood or properly appreciated by
the people who enjoy the benefits and
blessings which come from them He

Concerning Silver and Hints at Changes
in the United States.
BRUSSELS, Dec. 9-In reply to an in
vitation extended to him Prof Andrews,
of Brown university, an American dele
gate and personal friend of President
elect Cleveland, made an address to the
monetary conference in which he said
he hoped the idea that America was
bent only upon increasing her national
wealth, and that she was merely acting
as the Servile creature of mine owners
would forever be dismissed az being
equally as absurd as the idea that the
main interest was mainly due to the
distress affecting the American none
tary system. Continuing he said:
I'VE have not and are not at present
likely to have dollar in silver beyond
our needs in the United States. We
have no idea of soliciting any favors
from the people of Europe What we
desire is as much to Europe's interests
as to ours. We wish to multiply our
trade with the world: TO do vaster
business with China. Japan, and Cen
trail and South America and at the same
time with Europe. This will never be
successfully accomplished SO long as
two great groups of nations con-
tinue to drift apart The evils of fuc-
tuating exchange which beset England
in her commerce with India we also .ex-
perience in our trading with our nearest
neigh bors, but we are determined not
to accomplish desirable end at the
terrible cost of opening a similar chasm
between ourselves and the nations of

AFTER MARY YEARS.

Saved from Starvation by nn Ancient
 Poem.
 When Madelciuo's parents became so old that they could live no longer, they died. Soon afterward Madeleine mar ried Clarence Hungerford and went with him to live in a cottage trimmed with horeysucklo and filled with love and empty cupboards,
 One night about csc D. III. Clarence and Madeleine crept into opposite cor ners of their tiny cottage and shivered, for the wolf was at tho door, and every ,ine he snarled pang of hunger smote their hearts. A while later sound to which they were rarely accustomed smoto their ears. The sound emanated from the postnan's whistle, and Made leine timidly opened the door, lodged the wolf and snatchcd tho letter which the postman held toward her. Fearing lest it be an increased demand for rent, Madeleine by a herculean effort forebore opening the envelope for several hours, but the time camc when she literally forced herself to examine the packet. Turning it over Madeleine SAW that the letter was addressed to her father, and that it had been redircctel to her. She hurriedly opened it and check dropped into her lap, as did also note composed of words to the following effect: Please accept inclosed cheek in payment for your poem, which appears in tho current issue of our magazine Publication is cftoa delayed h order that VIC may give the press of similar material on hand a chance 10 be seen and ap. preciatcd. Yours, etc, TuE Epiror.
 'It is the check for fathers poem. which he used to tell me about when was child" cried Madeleine ioyfully; then Clarence and she retired sadly, foy they could not cash the check at ?. h.. nor could they eat it. When tho a. m. dawned, however, they exchanged the check for lucre, and that night when the wolf returned to their door they chased him around totha back yard, and set before him such feast that he over ate and died.
