BULLyRAGaING THE PRESIDENT.

The rank free-trade element in the
Democratic party has already taken
alarm and has found it nscessary to be-
gin a policy Of fierce bullyragging, hop
ing to drive the President to recogni-
tion of their ruinous dogma.
They take strong ground, as the re-
cord and strong speeches of Mr.. Cleve-
land afford them leverage that he can
not possibly avoid being moved by, un-
less he chooses to specifically stultify
himself by denying his past sincerity or
candidly announces that he has expert
enced change of heart.
The Presidents tormentors go back
to his tariff message of 1887 and build
up for him free-trade faith that is in
perfect accord with the platform adopt
ed at Chicago last June. This code OF
political belief is reinforced all along
the line by extracts from speeches de-
livered by Mr.. Cleveland. The result
of this method of political crucifixio is
clearly stated by Henry Watterson in
his paper on the 7th inst. Says the
Kentucky Napoleon of free trade:
double meaning. Mr.. Cleveland is no more his
own platform than he is his own party. He stands
where his party placed him. oa free-trade plat
FORM
The intent of this successful attempt
to fasten free-trade record upon Mr..
Cleveland is clearly apparent. 1t is
sought to make him an instrument to
further their desire for free-t trade legis-
lation, and to convince the public that
such legislation is the logical and inevi-
table result of the election last fall. Mr..
Watterson plainly says so:
Now the party approaches the time when IT must
put Its creed into deeds. IL has control OF the
ecutive and legislative departments. IL must pro-
vide an enormous revenue. II must devise new
system of taxation, IL must substitute revenue for
protective duties. and relieve the taxpayers OF all
tribute to those organizations which lave usurped
the power Of government and have pundered the
people without compassion or remorse
What does this ''new system of tax
alton" mean? Something that will re-
lieve the people, the Democrats would
have the people believe. But how?
The tariff "tax" rests very lightly upon
the people, and it brings an enormous
stream of money into the country. 1t
is enriching America at wonderful
rate. The people know this now. They
didn't realize it so fully year ago. The
fact that the popular appreciation of
the value of protection has become so
strong is what has spurred Watterson
and his ilk into such fevering atte&pts
to convince themselves that their free
trade cause is not dead.

KEEP COOL.


The other day in Boston woman was
seized with an irresistible impulse that
forced her to jump twice in froUt of fly
ing fire apparatus. She was sane enough
in every other respect apparently and
could not explain her conduct other
than that something forced her to the
act.
Many persons whom no one would
think of calling other than level headed
members of society have experienced
feelings similar to those Of the woman
who tried to hurl herself beneath the
fire engines wheels. Very many people
cannot look down from a great height
without an inclination to hurl them
selves headlong. Others will not ap-
proach train when in motion, knowing
and fearing their weakness. These and
other evidences exist that the brain is a
strange organ, and that the line that
separates folly from reason in not so
distinct after all.
Indeed, there are those versed in medi-
cal science who hold that but very
small minority of mankind are per-
fectly reasonable on all points during
their entire lives, that there are but
few who would not be proved by
scientific diagnosis to be in part insane.
Yet many such people hold high posi-
tions in all walks of life, tn cir errati-
cisms of brain being seldom apparent,
even to themselves.
The famous DIR. Johnson was a prey
to such an irresistible desire to touch
each post that he passed that when he
missed one he returned to it. A noted
English divine, Bishop Butler, had to
contend his life through with a tempta-
tion to blaspheme that could be over
powered only 10y most vigorous exercise
of will power. Few of us can refrain
from laughter when person falls,
although the results may be serious,
and many persons find in the most
solemn occasions cause for hilarity.
Men who have become famous by
reason of their powers OF intellect have
confessed to morbid cravings and weak
nesses that prove them to have been ON
the border land Of insanity, although to
every outward appearance they were
staid. sensible men of affairs. OF
many instances of these freaks of the
mind we know nothing and it is for.
tunate that we do not. But may it not
be presumed from the well ac-
credited cases that have been
made public that in every human
mind there exists tendency to mad
ness which, If fostered by indulgence,
increased by mental trouble or by lack
of proper regard for the laws of health
will eventually send the possessor across
the narrow border land that separated
the healthy mind from madness
All Of which impresses the need of
keeping cool, fretting little and not
keeping up too much steam in the boiler
OF existence.

The meeting Of the Southern gov
ernors. that opened yesterday at Rich
mond, to fix upon some scheme to draw
attention to the South during the Worlds
fair, is especially suggestive.
It points out one OF the most impor-
tant uses that may be made of the great
gathering Of the people of all the states
and all the nations by communities de-
termined to make the most of every
opportunity that offers to push their
own fortunes.
Following the idea in its legitimate
reasoning the suggestion arises that, if
it is thought profitable for the Southern
states to utilize the big fair by drawing
the attention of the visitors to them
selves, why would it not be profitable
for Rhode Island and for Providence?
Why would it not pay for this city to
have competent man on the fair
grounds all the time? Suppose keen
business man, with certain preliminary
authority, were to work constantly
among the exhibitors, showing them
what advantages Providence has to
offer and helping them to study out the
problem Of the most profitable location
for their business. Is it possible to
doubt that the result would be emphati-
cally beneficial to the cityf =
Here is a field of work for the city,
or for the business organizations of the
city. 1t might be undertaken by the
Board Of Trade, the Advance club, the
Business Mems association, the Me-
chanics exchange and the Jewellers
Board Of Trade working in unison.
Perhaps other organizations would join.
Doubtless certain large business inter-
ests would cooperate, to the extent of
helping to bear the expense at least.
The cost would be comparatively
slight, considering the value of the
work that might be done. Each of the
organizations mentioned would need to
assess itself but small amount, and as
they are all professedly devoted to the
advancement Of the material interest
of the city they would certainly be justi-
fed in at least considering how. the big
Worlds fair can be specifically utilized
to help on the growth of the city of
Providence.
Colonel Wyinan, as executive COM
missioner, will do good work. But he
has all the varied interests of the state
to look after, and will be able To devote
very little personal attention to the sort
of missionary work among the exhib-
itors here suggested.
The city ought to be represented at
the fair by about the most alive man it
has got. If he is now in business it
would pay to buy him out, and guaran-
tee him five years salary if necessary.
Such magnificent opportunity for
effective missionary work and the most
valuable advertising possible will never
again be presented. To neglect it will
be nothing short of suicidal.
