REID's HUmBUG REPEN,
LANCE.

The Irotectionists are forever assert
ing that our high tariff docs not give the
protected manufacturers very large prof
It's after all, aud Democrats who assert
the contrary are denounced by the high
tariff apologi5rs as enemies Of American
industries
Many individual cases come TO light,
however, which are hard for these apol-
ogists to defend satisfactorily. Here is
the case Of the Amoskeag Manufactur-
ing company. Of Massachusetts. The
treasurer Of this large cotton manufac-
turing concern has just handed in his
ANNUAL report showing that the company
paid'a dividend Of 10 per cent. for the
past year, besides adding $500, 900 TO its
surplus. No farmer Is now earning 10
per cent. clear on his capital, but this
cotton mill does that and lays by $780,
OO) extra FOR a rainy day.
The treasurer clearly recognizes the
fact that IL is protection which is largely
responsible for helping the company TO
realize these large profits. He tells the
stockholders, Moderate taxation, the
fullest employment Of machinery con-
sistent with the health Of operatives
and sufficient protection from the com
petition Of foreign labor arc essential TO
your continued success"
Taxation indeed! The Amoskeag COM
pGuyi- la reality not taxed at all, for the
state and other taxes which it pays are
much more than made good to il by the
extra price which it is enabled through
the tauH 10 charge Americans for their
cotton goods. Thus instead Of paying
taxes 1t collects taxes from those who
buy It's goods.
The former treasurer OF the company
evidently valued this beautiful result Of
protection at its true worth He had
been lifelong Democrat, but four years
ago, when the people began TO become
aware that they were paying the manu-
factures too much tariff taxes, he saw
that his interests were with the monop-
oily party. lie accordingly voted for
Harrison, and has since been rewarded
b. Harrison with the appointment of
minister 10 France. IAus protection
buys up its pets and makes them solid
for the q. O. i. for big dividends and
large additions to their surplus funds.

A COMPARISON

Comptroller Myers in the course OF his
address before the gathering Of mor-
chants, bankers lawyers and business
men generally in Wall street Thursday,
gave some statistics I'm regard 20 the ap-
preparations made during the last two
administrations that are worth romcm-
bering and should receive the attentive
consideration Of every voter in the land.
During Mr. Cleveland's administration
the appropriations per copite were reduced
to s62s a yeer. The annual appropria-
tions during Harrison's admulstrot on
have gene to up to s7.,3 per caIi,o, or an
increase OF sl.25 year tor every man,
woman and child IN the United States.
This increase represents the difference be-
tween running the government honestly
and economioally,and running thcgoyern-
ment with that awful extravaganza made
necessary by the policy Of oppression tax
alton for high protection.
What is more, it was on account Of this
awful and shameful extravaganza that
caused the Waterloo Of 1890 and n Ropub-
lican majority in the House OF Rcprsscn-
tatives OF q turned into a Democratic
majority Of $50.
During the course Of the 5o,h Congress
the appropriations amounted TO eight
dollars per capita, or forty dollars per
family each year; and, including definite
and indefinite appropriations, tie.
amounted TO :l6 for every minute OF tima
that has passed since the Declaration OF
independence was signed down to the
present time. Perhaps this is not some.
thing to think about, but 20 every busi-
ness man it is a matter Of the utmost i'm
portance.

THE QUIET CAMPAIGN.

Apathy in politics docs not always mean
lack OF interest. The victories Of the
masses in the nominating conventions
were an inspiration tcr them and has
doutless set them 20 thinking. Enthu.
siasm OF a blatant sort does not assimilato
with sober thought, and that is the reason
for lack OF oyerW bplming applause rs in
dorsment OF the pyrotCchnics, plrsihage,
and partisanship Of the average political
appeal. Facts not flights OF the imsgina-
tion are in demand, and where they may
be obtained are carefully oigcstod, breath
being saved for the Eual hurrah in Nov-
ember after the elections. The spread Of
the system 81 secret ballot may dimish he
size Of the vest pocket vote but It also IS
most effective method Of swelling the
sound Of the voice Of the people and
making more emphatic the verdict OF the
people which they hover.achod during he
apathy Of the campaign.

SOap as an Edible.

Like all primitive peoples, the Mao
ries are very inquisitive, and, in the
manner of children, are inclined to
bring everything to their mouths to test
its qualities. In the early days party
of Maories came across some bars of
soap, which had been washed ashore
from a wreck. Finding that the stuff
was too sticky to be eaten raw, they re-
solved to cook it. Accordingly they cut
it up into small pieces and sprinkled
these pieces over the sweet potatoes and
fish which formed the evening meal.
Finally they covered the whole mass
over with fern-leaves and mats, and
putting earth on the top, left everything
to bake quietly in the ovens till the
evening. The scene at that evening
meal must have been very funny. Not
only did the tribe have to go supperless
to bed, but the whole set of ovens was
spoiled, and new ones had to be con-
structed before any further cooking
could be done.-San Francisco Argo-
aaut.

COINED BY BRIGHAM YOUNG.
Five-DoIar Gold Pieces Which Are Now
Rarities-Too Soft for Use.


County Commissioner Ballard, of San
Francisco, is the possessor Of a rare and
curious gold coin which fell into his
hands in California in 1649. 1t is
Mormon fve-doilar piece, and for many
years has been employed as a charm or
bangle on Mr. Billiards. fob chain. The
owner himself was '49er, and took
part in the early gold excitement in
California. He told a New York Re-
corder man that the Mormons, who
were among the earliest in the gold
fields. returned to Salt Lake with great
quantities of the precious yellow dust.
Much gold also found its way to Utah
through other avenues. Brigham Young,
who was at that time running little
government on his own account, estab-
lished mint and coined probably one
million dollars in five-dollar gold pieces.
These coins very soon found their way
to California and passed current. At
that early date, Mr.. Ballard says, the
coins were welcomed as great
convenience in matters of exchange.
The metal in the coins was unalloyed-
SO soft and pure, in fact, that it wore
away very rapidly. On this account
they soon disappeared from circulation
almost as rapidly as they had appeared.
On one side of Mr.. Billiards. relic are
two clasped hands, probably symbolic
of brothcrly love, while around the
margin are the letters, &c. S. L. G. P.
Co." standing for Great Salt Lake CAL
ifornia Pure Gold" Below the clasped
hands are the words, five dollars" and
the date '1S49." On the other side, in
the center of the coin is the all-seeing
eye, and below that beehive, while
around the margin are these words,
Holiness to the Lord Mr.. Ballard
has had some trouble in keeping his coin.
Once he accidentally lost the keepsake,
but was lucky enough to find it again.
Another time a thief got into his house
and took all the money from his pocket
book except this odd-lool1ing coin,
which, at a glance, resembles a trunk
check. This was more than twenty years
ago. Mr.. Ballard then attached it to
his morocco fob chain, which is anchored
to an oldfashioned silver watch the
movement of which is also dated 1919.
Another of these rare coins is preserved
in the National museum at Washington.

wig vearers or OIden Times.

A century and half ago the wearing
of wigs was at its height. Even boys
of four and five years old had their
false locks. A Leyden professor-Rivers
by name-shocked all churches by de-
claring that Christian must necessa-
rily wear wig or be eternally lost On
the other hand, DR.. Theirs, n celebrated
Catholic, assailed the wig-wearing
priests in good-sized volume. The an
cient Egyptians all wore wigs, and the
early Christians, from A. ID. 427 20 A. ID.
OF. considered false head-covering a
badge of distinction. This, too, in di-
rect opposition TO Tertullian, who in
vain declared them devices and inven-
tons of the devil, and Clement of Alex.

with it that he backed away from the
! package and valiantly called in Sally
to take it to the yard. She knew moth
| ing of internal machines, and gave the
box a shake that called forth a wall
from me. The package was put out in
I the yard close under the caves of the
house, and the squire called in the
neighbors, who agreed with one accord
that the box was an Internal machine
sent by friends of the men whom the
squire had sentenced at Bethune.
The justice was now swelling with
added Importance 1--WE jurists," he
said to Blacksmith Farraday, run
tremendous risks because Of our devo-
ton TO duty"
Every one had suggestion. Throw
ing the box into the swift-rushing West
Canada creek was the favorite proposal,
but when the question arose as 10 who
was to throw it, there were no answers
in the first person.
The miller finally suggested rolling
heavy stone off the roof to smash the
thing. Grant people knew nothing Of
dynamite, and explosion by conclusion
was not feared. The idea was acted on
and the squire said that as / had
warned him first ] should have the
honor of smashing the box. So my big
brother sat on my legs while ! leaned
over the edge of the roof and dropped a
ten-pound chunk OF Trenton Falls sand
stone on 10 the box The stone hit il
square. There was a crunch and one
hundred of the best cigars that ever
found their way into Grant were re-
duced TO powder There was an in
porter's blue stamp on the remnant Of
the cover and among the ruins were one
hundred red and gold paper bands with
the word "Perfect0s' on each.
Ike Masters. who had never smoked
anything bat clay pipe and stem clip
pings, was the maddest man in Grant
He said the squire was coward and
said this unmindful Of the fact that he
himself had watched tie breaking Of
the box from the top Of a tan pine
The 'squire's influence was gone and
he was defeated for reelection the next
fall BY George Stearns, who had studied
law for three months IN Scoharie.--
