REVENUE AND rAaIFF.

Democrats denounce protection as q
fraud. They want tariff for revenue
only. tariff for revenue only implies
reduction IN the amount OF duties
collected. But the implication Is de-
eepnve. A tariff for revenue only
means a tariff that will raise money
enOugh 10 pay the expenses OF the
government when honestly and eco
nOmically administered. With the
present tariff, including its protective
features, which the democrats decl are
Is fraud the resources are not SO
greatly in excess of the needs as to pile
up surplus IN the treasury. On the
contrary tho balance sheets are so
nearly equal as 10 excite, al times some
nneasness. For instance the last
democratic house, IN pursuance Of It's
penchant for honesty and economy
appropriated for governmental expen-
ses more than s40,000,0O0 more
than It's republican predecessor,
all of which must be paid out
Of customs receipts. A tariff for rev.
enue only would not differ from the
Mckinley bill IN any respect except in
the kind Of articles made dutiable.
The democrats 10 raise money under a
revenue tariff would tax rice, coffee,
sugar, tea and other articles consumed
10y the people and admit tin and wool
free. The burden of taxation would
thereby rest on the poor while foreign
made tin would shut up American tin
plate factories, just being established,
and ruin the sheep owner. Tariff for
revenue only differs from the pro-
tective policy in that the former would
discriminate in favor of the foreign
manufacturer while the latter would
build up the home industries. Just as
much money IS required TO pay gov
eminent expenses under the one system
as under the other. 1t costs no more
10 protect our industries than to leave
them exposed TO merciless foreign
pauper-labor competition.

CLUE CONTENTION

Every organized republican club is
entitled to three delegates in the state
convention of clubs to be held in this
city September ~. Each of the ward
clubs in the city should meet at an
early day and elect delegates. The en-
tire city will be organized before this
week IS ended and If each ward elects
delegates, with three from the Lincoln
club, Grand Rapids will be represented
by thirty-nine stirring republicans. The
convention will meet at 10 O'Clock and
after the transaction of regular bust
ness addresses will be made
by the Hon. j. C. Burrows,
The Hon. John 7. Rich aud probably
the Hon. J. Sloat Fossett of New York.
The meeting will be one OF the largest
ever held IN the state. The club plan
is now at the zenith OF success and is
proving to be the most powerful ele-
ment enlisted in tho campaign. It's
rallying cry is educate the masses"
and torchhghts and brass bands are re-
served for the wind-up. This city is,
or will be, completely organized in q
few days and then the tremendous
power of the clubs will be put into use.
BY the time the convention is held this
city Will be charged to the muzzle with
triumphant enthusiasm.
Of he ho a.
adopted in the conduct of funerals is
10 provide place for the ceremonies
where there are sufficient accommoda-
tons TO care for the throng of friends
IN attendance. Crowdlng and iost-
ling are unseemly at the funeral OF
the dead and the practice of hold
ing public funeral at private resi-
dences makes such acts almost un.
svoidsble. The church, or other pub
lie place. should be used on the occa-
sion of funerals, where the deceased
had in his life time large number of
friends.

Terms for the Electric Eorce.

About the middle of the last century,
through the genius of Franklin, light
ming became identified with common or
frictional electricity, but the language
referring to this great natural force con-
tinued to be the same as when men were
ignorant of its nature. They spoke, as
we still speak, of a thunderstorm, and
of thunder and lightning, and thus, as
in other cases, mistook, as we continue
to do, at least in our mode of speech, the
effect for the cause. 1t is commonly
said that the thunder turns to sourness
the milk and the beer; that there is
thunder in the air, and the singeing of
tree by lightning twas due to the thun-
der last night" as its owner informed
me few weeks ago. Even Scott, in
"The Heart of Midlothian" speaks of
"the shattered and thunder splitter
peaks of Arran."
Our gratitude is due to those gifted
men who have been able to divest
natural phenomena of the ignorance
and superstition that formerly encum-
bered them, and so to bring them under
the dominion of scientific laws which
appeal to the good sense of all students
of nature.-Notes and Queries.

One Woman's Life Story.

l am twenty-five years old and have
been married four years. Ny husband
was visiting at my home (Which was in
England) at the time of my birth, there
fore was acquainted with me from ear
liest infancy. As we grew up we were
frequently thrown into each others
society, but when he arrived at the age
of seventeen and | was twelve we were
parted, my husband coming to America,
where he staid five years, at the ex-
piration of which time we were to be
married; but unfortunately he lost all
his money in Liverpool, and on arrival
at my home was penniless. Consequent
ly we could not be married My hus-
band returned to this country to work
for another year to earn enough money
to pay my passage over, as we were en-
tirely dependent on our own exertions.
AT the end of twelve months he again
started for England, but had to return
again on account of collision. Finally
he arrived in England, where we We're
married a short time after and sailed for
New York. AS soon as we landed |
was taken very sick, was taken to hos
pital and went under dangerous opera
tion, which cost every cent of money we
had in the world. At last got better,
we hired a couple of rooms, my hus-
band succeeded in getting work, and al
though we are very poor we are very
happy. l am the proud mother of two

When the porter of the hotel ap-
preached, the heavy set man, with a
dropping black mustache, had washed his
face and was applying the towel briskly.
At the further basin, glaring at him
self in the glass, was a slim party, with
finely chiseled lips and an apathetic cast
of countenance.
"Ahem," coughed the porter.
The heavy set man made no sign.
Excuse me-" the attendant persisted.
"Whatcher want?"
The heavy set man was savage.
"Are you a guest of the house?'
The heavy set man dropped the towel
and pondered. Presently he shook his
head.
NO" he replied deliberately, Il am
not guest of the house"
The porter bowed. There lurked in
his eyes CLEAN of triumph, sort of

preston.

declared, with mock Difference, "that
this washroom is for guests of the house. "
The heavy set man sighed and gath
cred his collar, necktie and coat in his
arms.
"Will you kindly direct me-" he gent.
ly inquired, "to the washroom set apart
for victims of the house?"
A tremor passed through the frame of
the slim party with finely chiseled lips,
and upon the latter the close observer
might have detected a smile.-Detroit
