TAYLoR'S GIVE AWAY.

The worst give away we have seen
since the cyclone of November last Is
the speech of Joseph Danner Taylor,
a Doodle statesman, who has been mis-
representing the Cambridge, Ohio. dis
trict in Congress for the past ten years.
This alleged speech of Taylor's was
never delivered In Congress, as we are
reliably informed, but 1t appears in the
Congressional record of March 10, a
week after the SD had expired, and a
week after Taylor ceased to be Con-
gressman. But this is not the give
away, we are about to discuss.
TaylOT's topic is the balance of
Trade, the Master Wheel of Finance, "
and he proves very cOnclusiyely thai
the Mckinley bill is really responsible
for the large expectation of gold, during
thelasS six months of Harrison's admin
isIration. Of course Taylor did not H."
tend TO do this, as he iB Republican
of the Pagan sort, and claims 10 believe
in the Mckinley bill but his language
proves just what we assert, just the
same. Here let " quote Egtle from
Taylor:
Laws in relation to commerce and
trade are important, but no law has
ever been placed upon the statute book
that can secure prosperity to q country
as long as the balance Of trade is against
1t. II man purchases more than be
sells in any business, If his expenditures
are greater than his receipts, It i5 only
matter Of time when his resource
will DO exhausted. The same is true #
a nation II, in its commercial trans
actions with the world, it buys mcro
than it sells its resources will be gX
hGusted. This is the inevitable law Of
trade"
Let us not dispute with Taylor over
this paragraph; but proceed TO the next
paragraph. We quote again:
"Ihis balance must be paid in gold
because it is the only kind Of money
known in the worlds commerce"
In other words, according to the logic
of Taylor, the existing tariff law
enacted by the votes Of Taylor, McKln-
ley, ct al, did not stop importations,
but it has checked the export Of AmeIi-
con products, thus throwing the balance
of trade against us, and this balance
has bean settled by exporting gold.
In other words, the Mckinley bill has
added largely TO the cost of our i'm.
ported goods, without checking i'm
p0rtatlODs.
1t was enacted to stop importations
stimulate the growth of American
products and build up home market.
1t has done neither.
IL has antagOnized foreign nations
by appearing to be framed on the non
intercourse theory, and as result the
merchants and manufac urers of all
foreign nations have Disseminated
against our farm products and oul
manufactured products wherever it has
been possible.
Hence, the balance of trade has beer
against us, and this balance has beer
settled in gold.
Mckinley had better keep Taylor of
the stump, if this speech is the best he
has to offer for the campaign of 1893.

DREAM OF THE AGES.

The first bound copy of Mrs. Kate
B. Sherwoods new book, "Dream of
The Ages" reached the author yester-
day. 1t will go to the Worlds Fair,

handsome as it is possible to make it. -
The Literary Editor of the Toledo
Journal, who saw the proofs and illus
trations before printing, writes as fol-
lows in the last issue Of that paper:

Editor Knox I'm Minerva Kodak.

A married woman has been COM
planning that because she liv In town
she sees less OF her husband in ten years
than her country sister does in three.
From carefully kept account she
demonstrates that he spends only
forty three hours week with her,
against seventy which her country
sister secures. OF course town life
does only leave but little time for
mutual companionship, but on the
other hand, it gives little opportunity
for mutual boredom, which is an ad-
vantage when the wrong man discovers
after marriage that he has sworn to
love and cherish the wrong woman.

MORE HOPEFUL.

According to the Henry Clews circu.
lar of March 18, Wall street is still In q
condition of uncertainty over the Ma
tional treasury. AS we understand it
the National treasury is now doing
we'll, and is getting better every day,
with the Wall street prescriptions cast
to the dogS. We have plenty of gold
now for all practical purposes, and piles
of it in sight, We are pleased to notice,
however, that the Clews circular is more
hopeful than during the last agonizing
hours of the last administration. We
quote from the circular. 1t is good
reading.
"rhe disposition shown by some Of
the interior banks to give their gold to
the Treasury in exchange fOr its notes
Is satisfactory in more ways than one.
IL Opsns to the Treasury fresh source
for getting gold; 1t shows that the SER

MARRIAGE OF COUSINS,

There ale bills before several Of the
legislatures OF western states fOTbidding
the marriage of first cousins There
may be in these legislatures members
who are competent enough scientists to
pass judgm mt upon the effects of the
marriage of cousins, but if so the world
has not heard of them. A scientist
we'll known to the whole world, none
other than Charles Darwin, who made
the subject of inherited tendencies a
lifelong study, looked into this matter
Of the marriage of cousins and con
cluded that the prejudice against it was
nothing but superstition, and that if
the stock was good such marriages
were likely to produce offspring which
would inherit the Vigor of their parents
And then he married his own first
cousin.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND should give
no time to worry over the Senate COM

any of the Democratic Senators to en-
barrass President Cleveland in his
appointments. When that disposition
is manifested will be the proper time
