A Russian Humorist.

Mark Twain never wrote anything
more deliciously drolr than this issued
by a Russian governor the other day:
The citizen Kltaeff having asserted that there
was no cholera. and circulated various false
stories concerning the treatment OF patients Ia

Baranotf might have given the citi-
zen Kitaef a hundred strokes of the

million years. But he seems to be a
gentle fellow for a Russian high official,
and SO he contented himself with Civ.

low man for three months in a floating
cholera hospital, not because his serv-
ices were needed there, not to punish
him, merely to give him can opportun.

If by reason OF the changing favor Of
the czar, BaranofF shall find himself
out OF a job he should have notrouble
to attach himself at a high salary to a
humorous publication willing to pay
for talent of the first quality.

Still the Register is careful not to say
whether in its opinion the American
people would be better of if they were
to admit to this country free Of duty
the products OF the 'long hours and
poor pay" OF the German toilers.
Why does the Register dodge this per-
tinent and material question: 1t goes
to the root OF the tariff controversy.
There is the less reason for the Register
to dodgeit because in the Chicago con-
yention, where the matter was up with

A YOUNG MANS REASONS
For Leaving the Democratic Fold and
joining the Party Of Progross.

For Leaving the Democratic Fold and
joining the Party Of Progross.
The writer of the following interest
ing letter to the Keyser Echo Is a native
OF Hampshire county who will poll his
first vote in November. His brother is
editor of the Review, a Democratic
paper published at Romney. Another
brother is prosecuting attorney of that
heavily Democratic county. A young
man Of as much sound sense as Mr..
Cornwell should get on in the world.
RoMSEY, W. VA, July 20, 1892.
Editor Echo:
It has been a source Of wonder to my
Democratic friends and relatives in
Hampshire county why Liza young man
of Democratic family and in a Demo
cratic county, cast my lot with the Re-
publican party. 1t is because l have
found that the politics and principles
Of the two great political parties have
been misrepresented to mo. With all
due respect for the integrity and intel.
ligence of my relatives and friends, /
beg leave to state that upon reach
ing my majority, after investigation,
unbiased by prejudice, / am bound to
decide that the Democratic party is not
the party Of progress Or of the people.
In the light Of history we find that
they have opposed nearly all the
great measures proposed by the Repub-
lican party, declared them unconstitu.
tionaf and contrary to the principles OF
the Republican government when after
history has shown them salutarY and
wholesome. The history OF the party
is a history of negation. The Demo
cratic party gained a great victory in
1890 on the tariff issue and during the
present Congress acknowledged their
disbelief in their own doctrine by their
failure to act. These with many other
reasons have Influenced me in pursuing
the course which 1 have in casting my
fortunes with the party which has eie-
waited our manhood, increased our
wealth, and raised our Republic to a
degree OF eminence never dreamed OF by
the fathers. Yours respectfully,
M. S. CoRNwELh.

positive and unmistakable terms the
statements made by some correspond
int in their letter from Grafton which
appeared in the Register today. These
statements are all false. They are OF no

During his recent tour in the south OF
France President Carnot personally

poor farmers breast.

Learns Nothing by Experience.

Learns Nothing by Experience.
Not verylong ago the Register snatched
a bit out of one of the letters of Mr.. A.
W. Campbell to the INrELLIaENcER and
began to talk about Italy, the United
States andthe protective tariff. Itgave
the IxrELLIaENcER no trouble and great
pleasure to wind up and cork up the
esteemed Register on that subject.
Now the Register, drawing no useful
lesson from that sad experience, is at it
again oyer one Of Mr.. Csmpbell's letters
from Germany. To help our hobbling
neighbor in its feeble efforts the INTEI1t-
eENcER has the pleasure to submit from
RuhiotU's German Trade RerisV Of July 20,
1892, the following clear statement Of
the case as between Germany and the
United States:
when the bill which bore the honorcd name
OF Mckinley was introduced Into the represent
alive house at Washington, manufacturers OF
SAXouy, who exported their goods TO the United
States. wero EelEed with the greatest anxiety.
Branches of the SAXOny textile industries feared
that their whole trade would be destroyed.
We can affirm with certainty not only that the
industry OF Saxouy will overcome the Ill effects
Of the Mckinley bill. but that the prospect Is
not 80 gloomy as was expected.
II Is thoNEht that the votes Of the electors VIII
shortly destroy McKinley's work In the I'M
menSe Transatlantic Union. will dispense with
the password of America for Americans, > aud,
by giving n splendid victory to the Democratic
party. will open a free path to our export trade,
These are the hopes which have reused so
much interest throughout Saxony In the result
Of the next election for the President OF the
Articles which are cheap In price, but very
largely consumed, cannot be produced so cheap.
~ In the United States as In Germany, owing 70
the high price OF wages
The difference between the German
authority here quoted and the Register
is that Kuhlow's understands both sides
of the question and is honest, and the
Register understands neither side and is
not honest
"Artieies which are ohoap in price, but
very largely consumed, cannot be pro-
duced so cheaply In TIN Uuited States MS in
Germany, owing to the high price OF
wages"
The whole tariff controversy turns on
this question Of wages. Remove the
protective tariff, which alone makes it
possible to pay the higher wages of this
country, and the foreign producer finds
the American market an easy conquest.
Germany as we'll as England and the
rest of them is inspired with the hope
OF ia splendid victory to the Demo-
cratic party" which will open a free
path to the export trade to the United
States.
How does the Registsr like to be re-
minded in this forcible way that it is
the champion of a party which is the
hope of foreign producers and the
despair of the producers Of its OWE
country2
How does it like to be told that it
has no part in the patriotic cry OF
america for Americans"2
