Once Good Republican DOCTRINE.

So far as national issues are concerned
there is nothing surprising about the
declaration of Wisconsin in favor of the
revenue tariff demanded by the Demo
Gratis. The former Republicans who
voted for Cleveland on this ground last
Tuesday were only living up to the doc
trines which they had always professed
until the Mckinley craze attacked the
party. The Republican state platform
of 1875 contained this plank:
Resolved, That we are in favor of tariff for
revenue only, SO adjusted as to be the least bur-
densome and the most favorable to the inter-
ests of labor and industry.
Indeed the verdict of last Tuesday
throughout the country only means that
the tariff principles formerly laid down
by Garfield are to be carried out by
Cleveland. The next Democratic presi.
dent could not desire a clearer line OF
action than was drawn by that Repub
lican predecessor of his when he said, a
quarter of a century ago: "Duties should
be so high that our manufacturers car
fairly compete with the foreign product
but not so high as to enable them to
drive out the foreign article, enjoy G
monopoly of the trade and regulate the
price as they please. am for protec
ton which leads to ultimate free trade.

Illinoisans to the Front.

The election of Cleveland is in effect a
revolution. 1t crushes protection as en-
bodied in the Nc cKinley bill, and delivers
the agricultural and industrial labor of
the country from the despotism of or
ganized capital. Illinois will again be
a factor in national politics. With the
cooperation of the west and south it
will hereafter exercise a controlling in
fuence in the policies of the country
Senator Palmer.
The Republican party was over
whelmingly defeated two years ago on
the issues raised by the Mckinley act.
A rehearing was demanded, and new
trial was granted. After two years of
practical working Of the law and full
and thorough discussion of all its merits
the people have again repudiated it and
the party which is responsible for it.
The majority is so large and the con-
demnation SO emphatic that protection
is forever doomed in this country. And
not only in the United States, but in the
western hemisphere Canada, Mexico
and Central and South America will not
be long in taking down their bars raised
in retaliation and restraint of trade.
The continent is free. - Congressman

Tariff Reform That Is Within Reacl

Tariff Reform That Is Within Reach
1t has been suggested that an extra
session of the Fifty-third congress should
be summoned on the 4th of March next,
in order to inaugurate with as little de-
lay as possible the economic reforms de-
manded by the people in the elections Of
Tuesday. There are substantial reasons
why a new congress should meet on the
4th of March following its election, in
stead of waiting for more than year to
carry out the mandate of the country.
But let the existing senate, on the
meeting of congress next month, take
up and pass the neglected tariff reform
bills of the house that are now lying in
its finance committee. These measures
among the rest the bill to make wool
free and to reduce the duties on woolens
and to restore the old duty on tin plate
would, if passed, go far toward satisfy
ing the wishes of the country until the
new congress could enact more COM
prehensive measure of tariff reform.
Had the senate been capable Of COM
pretending the meaning of the popular
verdict of 1890, its Republican majority
would have promptly seized the oppor-
tunity to remove the most glaring iniqui-
ties of the Mckinley tariff. But Instead
of giving the least consideration to the
house tariff bills, the senate slowed them
away as passed in the pigeonholes of its
committee on finance. This indecent
disregard of the will of the people, as
expressed by their representatives, has
been terribly avenged upon the Repub-
lican party in the elections Of 1892.
Though utterly deaf to the voice OF
1890, it is hardly possible that the Re
publican senate will prove callous to
second rebuke, compared with which
the former was but as a gentle whisper
of admonition. In the few brief months
that remain Of their power the Repub.
licans in the senate could do much to
rehabilitate themselves and their party
with the people by passing the house
tariff bills. Will they have the courage
of the occasion?- Philadelphia Record.

Ceilings Should BE White.

The true function of the floor is to be
walked on. The function of the ceiling II
to reflect light. The function of the wall
is to serve as background or setting for
your guests and your pictures. In order
to see these to advantage the background
ahould be subdued in color, so as not to in
trude itself on your notice; also it is i'm
portant that the upper part of it, or frieze,
should be kept as light in color as possible,
so as to reflect light to the opposite wall.
Nothing is more fatal to the usefulness or
pleasantness of a room than dark ceiling.
Reflected light is necessary to enable us to
see into the shades of objects, and If the
light which enters by the window is not
reflected by bright ceiling and frieze, the
shades ON the faces of the people as on all
other objects will appear black. White is
the proper color for ceiling,-Decorator

Eat Figs and Be Brilliant.

Stimulation Of some branch or other of
the fifth nerve seems to increase the circu-
lation in the brain, and those who are
making their utmost calls upon their
mental powers are accustomed to stimu-
late this nerve in one way or another. The
late Lord Derby used to eat branded cher
ries, and an experiment of Marcy's proves
that mastication will accelerate the flow of
blood through the carotid artery, and serves
to show the wisdom of an editor whom j
knew who used to eat figs while writing a
leading article, and even of those who in
dulge in the practice so disagreeable to
their neighbors of chewing tobacco.-Pop-

A thread and needle tree sounds like q
fable, but the Mexican ma2uey tree fur
pishes not only a needle and thread all
ready for use, but many other conven-
fences. Just outside the door Of Mexican
home the beautiful tree stands, loaded
with clustering pyramids of flowers tow
ering above dark coronals Of leaves" and
at the tip of each dark green leaf is Il slen-
der thorn needle that must be drawn care
fully from its sheath, at the same time
slowly unwinding the thread, strong
smooth fiber attached to the needle and
capable of being drawn out to a great
length.
Among its other uses the roots of this
tree, well prepared, are most savory dish,
while with it's leaves may be made a
thatching fit for queen. And no prettier
sight can be met than the cottages of Mex
ican peasants so exquisitely crowned. The
rich leaves also afford material for paper,
and from the juices is distilled favorite

tives manufacture strong cords and coarse
