Free Trade Folly.


In view of the dire disaster predicted
by free traders when the Mckinley bill
first went into operation, and the tri-
umphant manner with which il has vim
dicated its right to live and is now edo
ing its own talking we do not wonder
at the jealousy displayed toward the
thriving infant by our Democratic
friends, nor ut their reluctance to adj
nit that Protection does protect
1t is this spirit which has caused the
Democratic press to make futile at
tempt to cast odium upon the success
of the pearl button industry, and last
weeks Courier fell into line with the
statement that the success of this indus.
try was caused by our state-prisons be-
ing turned into factories for their man
ufacture This is the merest campaign
cackle; for, though we cannot positive
ly assert that there are no pearl buttons
manufactured by prison labor within
know of none such, and certainly there
are none SO manufactured in the state
of Michigan. Yet the factory at De-
trot is in such successful operation and
finding such demand for its product
that it became necessary to offer oper-
atives the stimulus of piece work in or
der to meet all demands.
Our contemporary further lays him
self open to the charge either of unfair
ness OF ignorance, when he says the
employees of the pearl button factory at
Detroit struck for higher wages which
were promptly refused by the protect
ed capitalists" The truth of the mat
ter is that new schedule of wages was
arranged paying for the piece instead
of by the day, resulting in an increase
rather than decrease of wages, and
the strike was caused by misunder-
standing of the situation on the part of
the hands, most of whom returned to
work when the matter was explained,
although the ring-leaders in the strike
were refused unemployment and tried

this trifling disturbance in protected
industry has been magnitied by free
trade demagogues, and Messrs. Spring
Ell and Mcmillan have declared with
fearful utterance the only thing that
can be done to help these poor girls is
to put pearl buttons on the free list"

One does not often find So pretty a
romance in the midst of royalty as that
which just eliminated in the golden
wedding of the king and queen of Den
mark. Christian and Louise married
through pure love when in the midst of
poverty, with no thought of ascending
a throne; but with the revolution of the
wheel of Fortune, wealth, honor, and
fame have come to them, and the genu-
inc love and esteem expressed by their
subjects in the late festivities, plainly
show that prosperity has in no sense
caused their sterling worth of character
to deteriorate.

Never has there beena stronger re-
futation of the absurd theory that the
colored man is incapable of intellectual
advancement than the temperate and
dignilied speech of Representative
Chcatham last week, the only colored
member i'm the House, and the only per-
son able to control himself sufficiently
for calm and fair discussion of the
question that surely affected him more
nearly than any one else present, viz;-
"The measure looking to a Worlds
Fair exhibit that should show the pro-
gress of the negro race since its enamel.
patton" Mr. Cheathams bearing on
this occasion certainly scored point
in favor of the much maligned colored
race

For Wolverines.

The Michigan Association of Mime
apolis, composed of former residents of
this state who now dwell in that beauti-
full western city, have issued u bulletin
extending a cordial invitation to all
Michigan people who expect to attend
the National Convention, to make them
selves at home at their fine Headquar-
ters on the corner of Hennepin Avenue
and Third Street. These Headquarters
are rooms 2l9-222 inclusive, second
floor of the Boston Block, one of the
best known buildings of the city and
located not far from the Hall in which
the great convention will assemble.
A reception committee will be in con-
slant attendance, ready to give inform
alton regarding the many points of in
terest i'm and around the city, or to
assist any person from Michigan in
looking up resident friends by consul
tation of the complete roster of citizens
formerly living in Michigan, already
being carefully prepared. All Michi-
gan visitors will also be carefully regis
tered, all mail and telegraphic dis.
patches from Michigan be received
there, and Michigan papers be kept
on file.
In fact, every arrangement will be
made that may add to the comfort and
convenience of visitors from the Wolver-
inc state, and, as though this were not
enough, these generous western breth-
rem will aid in securing comfortable
quarters for all s.ichiganders who have
not yet made such arrangements, and
all such are invited to indicate their
wishes as soon as possible by sending
applications to Frank s. Lewis, secre-
tary of executive committee of Mich.

Glorious Possibilities.

1t is only as one rises to the national
conception of what Columbus Day, Oct.
12, may be made, that it takes ON its true
character. The day itself, simply as "a
way of calling up the past aud giving it
historical significance, will be full of
meaning, but it will be much more than
this. The historical part of the cele-
bration is not confined TO the mere act
of the discovery of America by Column
bus on the morning of Oct. ~. Ii is a
day that reaches back through four cen
turtles of progress, and it includes all
that America has passed through in
these four years-the crOwding OF one
race by another; the succession of one
civilization after another; the growth
of new ideas, and the putting old ideas
to new service; the introduction of
nobler manners, better laws, larger
and freer life than the world has known
before, and as the fundamental element
in this new order, the creation and the
development of our public school system,
than which nothing is more truly repre-
sentative of American ideas and nsti-
buttons.
The eagerness and appreciation with
which the suggestion for this peculiar
celebration has been caught up, shows
that III touches INC right choiu III tno
patriotic hearts of the young people
throughout the whole nation.
The public school is our most distinc-
tive American institution. 1t is this
same public school which, more than
race, has made the difference between
this republic and the republics of South
America. When the world gathers here
at our 400th anniversary to scrutinize
our life, this, our proudest institution,
will be pointed out as the clearest
source of American greatness and en-
lightenment.

The result of the great bicycle relay
contest seems to justify Gen. Miles be-
lief in the military usefulness of the
"slent steed" Though the race was
made in the face of furious winds and
unprecedented rain storms, it was fin
ished with less than nine hours of lost
time. In Europe, where better roads
prevail, an extra bicycle force is already
attached to several of the Continental
armies.

CAUSE OF BOOTHS FALL.

MEAENroEs OF THE TRAGEDY OF TwENTY-sEvES
YEARS AGO.
Twenty-seven years ago last night, at exactly
9:45 o'clock, Abraham Lincoln was shot by ).
Wilkes Booth in Ford's Theater in this CITY.
One OF the New York papers yesterday pub
lished story to the effect that Mr.. j. s. Case
OF Brooklyn had in his possession q blood
stained program that was in the hand of Presi-
dent Lincoln at the time of his assassination.
An affidavit purpor.ing to be signed by MIR.
John T.. Ford, and witnessed by notary pub
lie, was ipcluded. This article stated that the
affidavit was signed by Mr.. Ford on his death
bed, in November, 1890.
The story was shown to Mr.. Ford last night
by a baltimore American reporter and he
seemed to enjoy it ''This is q rare bit of
humor," he said. Lincoln was shot ON Good
Friday, and was in Richmond at the time.
The only program Of the performance, which
was Our American Cousin for the benefit of
Laura keene, that ever saw after that was
few years ago. and which identified for gem
tieman living in the north. can saw most
emphatically that it had no blood stains on il.
Now, here Is something that has never been
IN print: At my house is the picture of George
Washington that hung outside Of the private
box which Lincoln occupied, and it was the
frame of this picture which caught Booths
spur and caused him to fall and break his leg.
The frame still bears the impress of the spur.
have also in my possession the original door
through which Booth passed before he mounted
his horse. Mr.. Lincoln was a spare built man,
and but little blood escaped from the wound
IN the neck, not enough to soil his clothes, be-
fore he was removed from the theater"

OPPOSED TO A BRIDGE.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
1t Is proposed once more to construct q bridge
across the Potomac from the foot Of 23d street
to Analostan Island opposite, the same to be
used by the Washington and Arlington railroad.
Not once, but moro than half dozen times
have the citizens Of Georgetown opposed with
vehemence like projects, and once more they
will unite and fight To put another bridge
across the Potomac between the Aqueduct and
the Long bridge, would as effectually destroy
Georgetown's shipping trade as the drying up
OF the river itself would. As early as possible
public meeting will be called and q strong
opposition will meet the efforts Of the railroad
company. G. WK
