Rev c. NJ. Wilkins, former rector of Trinity parish, Newtown, but for the past two years stationed at St. Luke's church, New York city, has received a splendid testimonial to his popularity in the shape of petition from some 450 or 800 of his parishioners asking the bishop to continue him as assistant to Dr Patey, rector of St. Luke's. The church has been under construction since MT Will kins went there and will be one of the finest church edifices in the city.

Judge Lambert Tree, i'll the January Forum, says that testimony presented to the Brussels Conference showed that provinces as large as kingdoms are de- populated for the purpose of procuring
 victims for the slave traffic. Vast areas
 of country are devastated and set back into savage state, which had been un- der cultivation. The number of persons actually captured and sold into slavery does not measure the horrors of the situ- ation; for each one of these at least four others are murdered or perish miserabiy on their way to the sea; the lowest estl- mate places the number disposed of in the slave marts annually at SC, 1000, which added to the number slain brings the aW- ful total up to 400, ,O00, or more than 1000 lives each day sacrificed to this Moloch,

THE OPEN PARLIAMENT
LOOK OUT FOR THE DWARF.


 My dear child: Your letter lies on the desk before me. Have just finished reading it for the second time. It is s a m. The mail closes in 30 minutes; SC will reply to only one question. You ask if think you did right to spend the evenings of the 14th and 18th as you represent.
 That question implies that doubt exists in your own mind; that con. science is not fully at rest. When that still, small voice within you says. Dc not? heed the warning.
 Years ago, l heard an Indian legend, which deeply impressed me at the time. l will pen it for your benefit, trusting you will seriously reflect upon the moral it contains:
 A very diminutive dwarf once asked q king to give him a possession of land He said he would be content with the ground he could cover in three long strides. The king did not hesitate to grant the request, as he deemed the pe- titloner too tiny and insignificant to fear. The king assented and the dwarf became strides which covered all the land and water which the king possessed, even to the throne; then destroyed the king.
 My child, you have gone out from your paternal home to take your place among men. A home, in the worlds view, humble; still, you have had all the advantages that culture and matured piety could give. These are of sterling value and you have the broadest oppor- tunity in the position you occupy to prove to these tender self denying par ents that you appreciate what they have done for you.
 Yielding in trival matters, against which conscience warns, is the first en- trance of the dwarf upon our domain, es- teemed too insignificant for a watch mans care. He makes small openings, which weaken the citadel and the giant has full possession.
 Just entering the arena of life, with glowing visions of the future before you, the long vista of years seems cen turies to your youthful and undevelope6 mind. Oh, how my heart goes out to ward you; and not you alone, but al who stand thus upon the balance, as i were. which, in many instances, take but d hairs weight to influence eithe way and the record at the close to be al eminently useful life, or ignominy ant ruin.
 Do attend to the counsel of those wh love you and let not tine exquisite eoloi l lag, in which many sins will appear t , your unsophisieated sense, blind you t the fact that it is thus the crafty insid ous foe tempts the unwary. You temptations will be legion! Your sock environment has mucn to do in mouldin your character. Remember the legend Habits which overpower and destro were formed from small beginnings If the small sins are conquered, grea ones will never be eommitted.- d.-l You devoted grandmother, Bedding Ridge. e Y

Don't try to be too economical when you buy paint. The saving of three or four dollars in the cost of your paint is false economy. Your dealer in paint tells you it will take so many gallons to paint your house. Then comes in your economy. You hear of a paint that is 25c less per gallon than the Chiffon Paint. You know that the Chiffon brand is a standard paint, made from the best materials. Now why don't the Chiffon Manufacturing Co. sell it for % cents less per gallon? They can't afford it, and you can't at- ford to save that 25 cents. The best Paint is the cheapest in the end.

THE free trade Chicago Times
says: "The iron production of the
United States still continues larger
than that Of any other country in
the world. Two years ago we passed
Great Britain for the first time, and
we are certain to now hold the lead
While the production Of the world
has increased % per cent. in the last
decade, that OF the Uuited States has
more than doubled, and almost the
entire gain in the total has been in the
production in this country" That is
a truthful statement, but the free
trade Times forgot to add that the
protective tariff has been the only
method by which the United States
could have excelled England in the
production Of iron.

THE WORK IN THE WEST
MANAGERS ARE
ACTIVE.
They Know All About That Proposed
Democratic Crusade I'm the Upper Mis-

Oar Line Well Guarded.
Democracy and the Wet.

IL will be we'll for the masses of the
Republican party Of the country at large
TO understand that the Republican cam
paign managers in the West are fully
informed as to the necessities and re-
quirements OF the situation. They
Anow all about that proposed Demo
cratic crusade in the upper part OF the
Mississippi Valley and on the other side
of the Rocky Mountains. The posi-
bility Of such a movement as this has
been foreseen from the beginning, and
has been intelligently and adequately
guarded against. Doubtless the Re-
publican campaign managers have no
expectation that this Western crusade
will reach formidable proportions. In
all probability they are convinced that
it will collapse before election day ar
rlves, Notwithstanding the boasts of its
promoters and the confidence, or
pretended confidence, reposed in it by
the inner circle OF the Democratic mag
mates. They arr treating it seriously,
however, and making all needful prepa
rations 10 defeat it. In every Western
State the local Republican managers
ne getting the party into effective fight
ing shape, and the National Committee
is doing its part toward making the
party's position impregnable. All the
machinery OF the organization is being

THE consistency Of the free-trade
Democrats is something remarkable.
The Democratic platform denies that
our country has prospered. Edward
Atkinson, distinguished Democrat
ic free-trader, says that it was never
so prosperous before. The Demo-
cratic platform asserts that prices are
higher and wages lower since the
new tariff law passed. Two Demo-
Garlic Senators, Carlisle and Harris,
agree with the other members Of the
committee that prices are lower and
wages higher since the enactment Of
that law. But, then, what consist
ency can be expected from a party
whose sole claim to power has rested
on the bowls of calamityites and the
vaporings Of cranks?

That Ccnf.,,cr,tc Plant.

The Democratic Platform contains a
plank that was taken almost bodily
from the constitution of the de unct
Southern Confederacy. 1t is its tariff
plank, which declares that n protective
tariff is unconstitutional, and that this
Government has no right TO protect It's
home industries and the workingmen to
whom they afford employment.
This means that the Government has
no right TO forbid the entrance OF con-
tract laborers from abroad, or of the
product Of their labor, by the imposition
OF legal penalties on the first and of n
tariff on the second. IL is fair TO say
that the tariff plank, as originally pre-
sented ut Chicago, distinctly provided
for the protection of domestic industries
and the wages OF American working
men, and that 352 members of the con-
vention voted fof tho original plank.

first six months) New Jersey reported
twelve strikes in it's silk works, eleven
in the building trades, nine in leather
and eight in machinery.
During the first six months of Nc
Kinleyism New YORK had one strike in a
Mckinley protected industry.
The first six months of Mr.. Cleve-
lands second year witnessed five hun
dred and thirty-three strikes in this
State.
In Ohio during that period the ratio
was three for "McKinleyism" to eighty
one for Cleveland.
In Pennsylvania during the first half
year of the Mckinley bill Democratic
authorities charge up strikes in eight
iron and steel works in Pennsylvania
and in several Philadelphia carpet fac
tories to that measure.
During the corresponding six months
OF ClevelandS administration thirty
nine carpet works and twenty-seven
steel works in Pennsylvania were under
strike, not to mention the 5000 miners
in 143 coal mines.
IN our issue of July 20 we showed
that while the population of the United
States was nearly double that of En-
gland, yet within the last twelve months
there were over 800 strikes in Free
Trade" England, affecting over 3.C0O,-
600 of workers-the Durham miners
strike alone involved half million
while in Protection America scarcely
900 persons were affected in the
same period.
1t seems to us that this is a subject
the Democratic papers had better leave
most carefully a.one.

Free Trade Editors CHALLENGED.

There is not Democratic editor in
the land from Cape Cod to San Fran els
co, from Lake Itasca to Key West. who
is not to-day buying the very paper on
which he prints his Mckinley prices
falsehoods for less money than he paid
before the Mckinley bill was passed.
We know of our personal knowledge that
it is true OF the New York free trade
dallies-one of them is saving $50, 900 a
year in the fail of the price of its paper
below the price actually paid for 1t, be-
fore the new tariff was enacted.
The American Protective League VIII
pay 81 900 to that Democratic editor VINO
will show that paper OF the quality and
kind used by him to publish his Mchin-
ley prices falsehoods can not be pur.
chased in the open market from to ~
per cent. cheaper than it cost under the
old tariff.
