CONSIDER THE SOURCE, AND Be
EIEvE.-In the western part of Massa-
chusetts man had fine stock farm.
But few weeks ago a fire broke out in
the barn, and burned not only the
building and the hay, but most of the
animals also. After the fire the owner
walked over the ruins. 1t was a sad
sight to see the charred bodies of his
fine Jersey COWS and his high-spirited
horses, to say nothing of the money
lost with them. But at the end of the
barn he saw sight which touched him
more than all the rest. There sat an
old black hen. He wondered that she
did not move her head to look at him
as he came nears her, but he thought
she must be asleep. He poked her
with his cane, and to his surprise the
wing which he touched fell into ashes.
Then he knew that she had been burn
ed to death. But out from under her
wing came a faint little peep, and
pushing her aside with his cane, the
man found-what do you think item
little yellow chickens The poor hen
had sacrificed her own life to save them.
and had held her place in the fire, as
Casabianca held his on the burning
deck. That sight touched the man
more than everything else.-Church-
man.

There is much talk, but no proof that
Mr.. Cleveland ever intended to use
force in the settlement of the Hawaiian
difficulty Indeed, all the evidence in
the case seems to negative any such
intention. But there seems to be no
doubt that the American minister, Mr..
Stevens, did use force, or make dis
play of force, in overthrowing the
Queens government. Persons who
hint at the impeachment of Mr.. Cleve-
land in this matter, might consistently
suggest that the attorney general OF
the United States proceed against Mr..
Stevens for his high handed and ultra
constitutional course.-IlldeC-A appeal.

HIGH TARIFF A FAILURE.-The
high tariff excludes competition and
thus enables manufacturers to form
trusts and other combinations for put
ting up prices by restricting produc
ton, closing factories, &c. Business
has thus been strangled to great ex-
tent, and many workiugmen have been
reduced to idleness by the operation of
the Mckinley act. A decrease of pro-
duction and wages began soon after
that act was passed and continues still
In a document sent out by the Pro-
tective League it is confessed that in
the past year the labor employed in
manufactures in the United States has
decreased go! per cent; wages, SO per
cent; business, 47.2 per cent. The
hands out of work number 101. 1893; the
loss of weekly wages, 81, 202, S51. Brad
streets puts the number of idle hands
at 801, 900. All this after the country
has been for over three years enjoying
the blessings of the Mckinley tariff!
Relief is wanted speedily from this
state of things in the passage of the
Wilson bill. Protectionists wish to
charge the effects of the Mckinley tariff
to a bill not yet passed, but the trick
is too thin The present situation
results from what is in the past, not
from what is in the future.-Balto. Sun.

The usual treatment of catarrh is
very unsatisfactory, as thousands can
testify. Proper local treatment is posi-
lively necessary to success, but many,
if not most, of the remedies in general
use afford but temporary relief. A
cure certainly cannot be expected from
snuffs, powders, douches and washes.
Ely's Cream Balm, which is so highly
commended, is a remedy which com
bines the important requisites of quick
action, specific curative power, with
perfect safety and pleasantness to the
patient. The druggists all sell it.

In his minority report from the Ways
and Means Committee Mr.. Reed
assumes, at the beginning, that the tariff
duties are paid by foreigners, and then,
in the paragraphs relating to manu-
features of wool, he speaks of the I'm
terva! allowed, after wool becomes free,
before the duties compensatory for the
wool duties are removed from WOODEN
goods" But why are those duties
called compensatory" Simply be-
cause they were imposed to compensate
the manufacturer for the duties he pays
on the wool, which is his raw material.
The foreigner does not pay those duties;
the "uuties compensatory for the wool
duties" to repeat Mr.. Reeds words
are not imposed to compensate the
foreigner for his payment of customs
dues. The domestic manufacturer
pays these duties. as Mr.. Reed very well
knows. His reference to the compensa
tory part of the wooden goods schedule
disposes of his earlier and utterly alb
surd assumption that the tariff duties
are paid by foreigners.-N. y. Times.
