Will Take the Responsibility.

The statement that the Democratic
party is afraid to undertake the revision
of the tariff Mr.. Voorhees, pronounces as
an insult to the intelligence of the men
who compose the party. "There never
were truer words spoken, he said, ethan
those used in the Democratic platform
to characterize the Republican party
policy. We have denounced it in our
platform as robbery and fraud, and
preached it from every stump in the
country. The senate is just as enthrlsi-
astic in the matter of the coming re-
vision of the tariff as the house can pos
sibly. be, and is perhaps more set in its
purpose. We will assume all response
bility, and are ready to begin tomorrow
if need be.
GAIL the intelligence and wisdom of the
country is not in the Republican party,
and when that party dies all wisdom
will not die, nor will all wisdom have
departed when its majority has departed
from the senate. The Democratic party
can be depended on to do two things
remove the unjust burdens of taxation
from the necessaries of life and provide
the necessary revenues for the govern
ment. The Republicans are prone to
talk of our mistakes, but theirs have
been crimes. If we were tyros in the
science of government we would not do
worse than they, but we will give the
people relief from the burdens with
which they have been oppressed since
the Republicans came into power. The
vote of the people at the recent election
shows wherein they put their confidence,
and that confidence will not be mis-
placed" New Age.

IeSs wages Tocause production Is re-
stricted by trusts, and in every way to
scrimp and stint themselves until their
bodies are dwarfed and their intellects
cTamped almost past recognition by
their Maker. And yet the now con-
demned tariff legislation is only one of
the devices of the rich and their accom-
plices-the politicians-for fleeing the
poor out OF Z considerable part of their
earnings, and perhaps, when an anti
monopoly congress has smashed tariff
monopolics and begins 10 legislato so
that the hard working poor will get an
opportunity to work and get what they
earn, it will be found that there are
other monopolies even worse than tariff
monopolies. 1t is a satisfaction to know
that the ship of state will soon have a
new set of officers. who will steer her in
an opposite direction from that of the
past thirty years.--Byron II. Holt.

The celebrated will of Benjamin
Franklin is going through a process of
law in Philadelphia. 1t will be re-
membered that Franklin devised one
thousand pounds sterling to his native
city, Boston, and like sum to Phila-
deIphia, his adopted city. These sums
were to be kept at interest for centu-
ry and then the accretions were to be
used to aid poor artisans. Franklin
calculated that at the end of one hum
dred years the enormous sum would
be in possession of the two cities. If
he had lived to carry out the scheme
there is little doubt that his arithmet.
ical calculations would have been
right. If the sum had been kept at
six per cent. compound interest it
would have amounted by this time to
over one million and quarter of dol
lars for each city. AS it was managed
however, Philadelphia has but $780,
900, and an effort is being made to di-
vert this sum from the purposes to
which the great philosopher had dedi-

OHIO CANALS.
A Strong Plea for Their Preservation
by Collector Alexander.

The following is an abstract from an
interview with Captain w. G. Alex
ander, canal collector at Toledo, pub.
lished in the Commercial this morning
and will prove of interest in view OF
the present discussion of the canal
question: ...
"This is only scheme on the part
of the railroads, and they are the only
ones who will benefit by the abandon
ment of the canals and it would be q
big thing for them. In as poor con.
dition as the canals are at present, they
are the only level that keeps the rail
roads from charging exorbitant freight
rates in the territory occupied by the
canals. AS it is they always double
their rates in winter after the canals
are closed and then cut down again as
soon as navigation opens.
1.-THE Ohio canals are not in very
good shape, but it Is because the state
has refused to keep them up. The
Miami and Erie canal, between Toledo
and Defiance, is in fair condition and
a large amount Oftraffic passes through
1t each season. From Defiance to Piqua,
it is very apparent, no boats OF
size can pass through because of sand
bars and Filings, yet, with an expendi.
ture of 100000, the canal could be
dredged SO as to give four feet of water
clear through from Toledo to Cincin-
natl, and if this were done you would
soon see the value of the canals, foI
the business would be immense.
"As it is, canal men do not feel like
nnftinO thoiF ponnny into ,,nEvy hon
for they can not tell at what moment
an abandonment of the canals will be
made by a farmer" legislature. II
the canal was cleaned out and there
was some assurance that it would not
be abolished, hundreds of new boats
would be built at once and Toledo
would get large part of the benefit
Coal could be shipped here from Gin.
cinnati cheaper than by rail, grain
would be shipped from the central part
of the state and these boats would re-
turn southwark with lumber and pulp
wood for the big paper mills and for
further shipment. Besides this, there
would be large shipments of provisions
and merchandise between way ports,
all at less rate than the railroads
would charge if the canals were not
there.
"Look at the Erie canal in New York
state; the great water way is kept in
repair with nine feet of water and no
tolls are charged. 1t is the pride of
the state and the business done by it
is something enormous. ..ua

THE most radical bill ever presented
In the legislature on the subject of tax
alton was introduced last Thursday by
Welsh, of Knox. 1t provides that
when any person refuses or fails to list
for taxation any notes, drafts, checks
and bills receivable he shall forfeit
the same to the State, aud debtor
upon payment of 40 per cent OF
such notes and bills to the county
treasurer shall be released from further
obligation or liability. The same strin-
gent provisions apply to persons loan
ing money and making notes payable
to an unknown, and if payee cannot
be found this is to be conclusive evil
dence of intention of lender. Persons
convicted of having money on hand
and not listing it for taxation forfeit
40 per cent. of the the amount, so per
cent. Of the 40 going to the person
furnishing the evidence and 20 per
cent. to the treasurer of the county.

THE use of fireballs saves one.third
coal and is common enough in Eng
land from the laborer's cottage to the
lodgings of thrifty gentle women in
Bath and Cheltenham. Made of ore
third coal dust, two thirds sand and
beaten clay, nodded with water into
balls the size of a goose egg and dried,
they are permanent fuel. When the
coal fire is hot and reds dozen of these
balls put into the furnace will become
red hot and stay so like red hot bricks,
keeping up the heat far longer than
coal without them. There is nothing
like them for keeping the house warm
at night, and half dozen put red hot
into brazier orportable furnace would
take the chill off bed rooms very COM
fortably. When rooms are heated by
stoves economy lies in never letting
the fire go down in cold weather, as it
takes more heat to warm the rooms
when the walls are chilled than it does

THE CURSE OF TARIFF TAXES.

They Increase the Cost of Farming and
Burden Instead Of Protect.
What folly to talk about tariffs rails
ing wages or being the cause of high
wages! Does passenger train make a
mile minute because it is propelled by
the Pullman sleeper attached to the rear?
Does a wagon run easier when one wheel
is locked?
Tariff taxes always lock the wheels of
progress. They are so much dead weight
that has to be tugged around by the in
dustrial machinery. They increase the
cost OF raw materials and at the same
time the cost of manufactured articles,
thus lessening the ability of manufac-
turers to compete, reducing the quantity
of manufactured products, lessening tho
demand for labor and decreasing wages.
They increase the cost of farm ilnple-
ments and the cost of clothing and other
manufactured articles, and thus burden
the industries that they cannot protect,
leaving smaller rewards for farmers and
farm laborers. They can protect only a
few manufacturers by giving them in
creased profits, and mine and timber
owners by giving them increased rents.
All comes out of the wage Garner and
the unprotected industries in decreased
wages, lessened production, increased
rents and cost of living and greater cost
of raw materials. And yet we are told,
and it is believed by many intelligent
people. that our prosperity is due to tariff
taxes.
Look out over the civilized world, and
see if there is in practice any solid foun-
dation for this absurd belief. None
whatever. Everywhere the compara-
lively high wage products undersell the
low wage products. The two countries
where wages are highest are Australia
and the United States. The chief prod
ucts of both are agricultural, and yet
these countries supply low wage Europe
with farm products, grains, provisions,
etc. OF the Old World countries England
pays by far the highest wages. Her chief
products are manufactures, which she
sells not only in all the European coun-
tries, but even in India and China, where
wages are still lower. Not only is her
high priced labor more than match for
the low priced labor of the Old World,
but her prosperity at home and promi-
nence upon the sea date from the time
she began with free trade and higher
wages.
According to the Mckinley Carnegie
theory, China and Russia and Spain
should with their labor run England out
of the markets of the world On the
contrary, we see that these countries are
all protected" by tariffs from England.
Wages are not high because of taxes of
any kind, but in spite of them, and be-
cause labor is more efficient and pro-
duces more.
The first step to success is self asser-
ton and independence. 1t applies to
nations as well as to individuals. AS
virtue brings it own reward, so do folly
and sin bring their own evils.
