COL. ELLIOTT. SHEPARD.

In the death of Col. Shepard,
brief mention of which is made in
our news items, the newspaper
world loses one of its brightest
members. Col. Shepard was the
son-in-law of the late VIM. II. Van
derbilt, through which connection
he became many times million
aire.
The deceased bought the ". y.
Mail and ETpreSs of Cyrus W..
Field in 1888 for $I25,0OO.
Colonel Shepard's surprises be.
gan shortly after the purchase.
The first step was the printing of a
bible text daily at the head of the
editorial page. OF this the colonel
himself has written: "The princi-
pal change affecting the policy of

bible text daily. Why this Great
ed the furor that it did all over the
United States l have never been

been brought to the boiling point
it re iuires great many degrees
more heat to be applied to and
stored up in the water, before the
water will pass into steam, and
that the steam is then no warmer
than the water was. AS nearly as
we can remember if pound of ice
water be brought to the boiling
point by the application of a uni
form heat, it will be found that the
heat must be continued five times
longer to change the boiling water
into steam, than to bring the freez-
ing water to a polling point. The
steam has taken in over five times
the amount of heat that had
previously raised the temperature
Of the water 212 degrees, and is
still no warmer than the boiling
water was.
Now, q man might say he knows
better than this; that common
sense" te lis him that if heat is APP
piled to water to turn into steam,
the steam must be hotter than
the water was. He will also
say that you cannot take heat
from the steam witout leaving it
colder than before. Yet he would
be as far wrong as if he maintained,
as barbarians still do, that the
earth stands still. "Common sense"
in the meaning that implies a con-
clusiOn formed with actual careful
examination of all the facts on any
subject, is quite as worthless so
far as truth is concerned, as the
opinion of the barbarian that the
earth is fiat and stands still.
Ask almost any man if he doesn't
believe in protection to home in
dustry;" and if he has never in
vestigated that subject, he will
say, "Yes, common sense' makes
me believe in protection" Those
who investigate, like Pro. Perry
and the economists, know that
"protection to home industry" is
really hindrance to home in
dustry. Those who do not investi-
gate are content to be deceived by
the Notwithstanding word "pro-
lection" into the belief that they
have a faculty called "common
sense" which renders investigation
of the subject unnecessary.

Studying "PrOtectiOn. "

From the Salt Lake Herald.
Prof. A. i. Perry, professor of
political economy in Williams col
lege, says that in 1888 he made Il
calculation, approximate, of how
much Americans had paid in cur
rent prices of protected goods year
ly from 1862 to 1881, inclusive. He
went on certain hypothesis that
would be granted by anybody
familiar with the facts, and going
through that line of calcuation the
result showed they!paid $632, 100000
in every one of those twenty years
-an aggregate Of over $4,000,
600 in the extra price. That was
the motive to lift prices of domestic
wares by shutting off competition
of other countries. He tried an
other process and the result came
out nearly the same from independ-
ent data namely, life. He says he
believes that God made this world
on everlasting lines of order. Each
should do that which he is able to
do best, and exchange the results
of his own foresight and effort
against the results of the foresight
and effort of other men. There is
Il profit in foreign trade for the
American people or it never would
be prohibited. If our protectionist
friends can furnish just as good
domestic goods at just as cheap a
rate they are on the ground and
have that advantage. If they
could do that they would not run
to Congress with their lobbyists to
get a law passed to prohibit foreign
trade. The fact that there is this
Chinese wall proves that Gods
plan is best, that every man shall
follow his own bent and sell the
product in the best market and
get his pay. The estimate
of another scholar made inde-
pendently of that Prof. Perry shows
approximately the same result.
All students of science know
that after a pound of water has

THE LAW OF LIBEL UNCHANGED.

The lower House of the Ohio
Legislature has refused by vote of
yeas % and nays 40, to pass Mr..
Gaumer's bill to amend the law of
libel. The bill provided that the
truth should be good and sufficient
defense, as also would be retrac-
tion printed in as conspicuous po-
sition in the paper as the defama-
tory item. The principal point
hoped to be gained by the bill was
to remove the presumption of mall
ice and give the publisher equal
standing in court with other per-
sons charged with crime. The
present law presumes that pub
lication is actuated by malice no
matter what the circumstances are
while man may deliberately com
nit murder in the sight of a hun
dred witnesses yet the law pre-.
sumes him to be innocent when
called for trial and the state must
prove him guilty.
That there lis something out of
gear in the law of libel is general
ly admitted, but whether change
is desirable In Ohio is somewhat
doubtful. Generally speaking, a
person who has a right to complain
of libel in newspaper is satisfied
with a full and fair retraction
Any one who is not satisfied with
such a retraction manifests malice
in prosecuting for libel. This is
the judgmentsof the public, which
is frequently more damaging to the
complainant than the libelous mat
ter of which he complains, and it
hits his reputation blow that
courts of justice with their juries
instructed to convict, cannot parry.
