eft both the sheepgrower and the
wooden manufacturer, and therefore be
of profit to the whole nation.
Appearances are often deceitful.
There is no greater deception in polit-
lical argument than the assertion that
prospective free wool ruined the wool
market of 1893. The Republican hum
bug has been: THE Democratic party
went into power; wool declined in
price; therefore the fall in wool was
caused by the Democratic party" A
ship started on a voyage; a storm i'm
mediately arose; therefore the sailing
of the ship was the cause of the storm.
Conclusive logic, or the argument of
appearances. The treasury report on
wool and woolens is trustworthy as to
facts and it is irrefutable in its con-
illusions. The decline in wool prices
was caused by something other than
the tariff.

Republican papers are elated over the
turning down of a consulate appoint
ment made three times by President
Cleveland, the Senate rejecting the
nomination. 1t was the case Of Ben
jamin Lenthier, of Massachusetts,.
They may now exult over the rejec-
ton of Judge Peckham. nominated for
the Supreme bench. This following the
rejection Of Hornblower is all the more
significant.
What is the inference of these refus-
ais to confirm the Presidents nomina-
ton? Whatever other conclusions
may be drawn, there is one that is
too plain to be disputed. That is, the
Senate is not "bulldozed by Cleveland
as alleged by some of his maligners.
Pear Of the President was put
forth by some local observation-disclosures
as the cause for the votes in either
House of Congress on the silver ques-
ton. The convictions of men on the
merits of the question were not believ-
ed in. Only improper motives could be
conceived by certain silver fanatics
According to their theory members
were "bribed or bulldozed by Cleve-
land into voting adversely to the sill
yer interest. That they had opinions
of their owr seemed to be out of the
question with their detractors.
These repeated failures to confirm
ought to open the eyes Of the blindest
partisan Republican to the fact that
the United States Senate is not run
by the administration. Each depart
ment of the national government takes
its own place. The dictation of Cleve-
land is all in the eye of his maligners
He has acted in his own place and has
not been led by the nose. either by the
Republicans or by members of his own
party If he makes mistakes he alone
/ is responsible for them and will be
judged accordingly. Most likely he
will be pictured as '.in rage" over the
action of the Senate. AS a matter Of
fact he will quietly make another Sc
lection and keep on until he succeeds
in finding man who will suit the
Senate as well as himself.
Van Aliens confirmation by the Sen
ate was declared to have been brought
about by the orders of the President.
Was the rejection of Hornblower
Peckham and Lenthier brought about
by the Same cause? And how do these
instances comport with the ''bulldoz-
ing" theory offered in the former case
and in other actions of the Senate and

towns or even villages being made in
this territory except possibly in the
| Henry mountains, if the mining inter-
ests sufficiently develop, and in that
case doubtless a new county will be
created to meet the wants of the
people. If there was a possibility of
towns being built there, no convenient
communication, or commercial relation
of any practical value could exist be-
tween the people of the eastern and
western parts of Garfield county, be-
cause of the nature of the country.
If it was practicable for the people OF
Garfield to use this territory, or if
they had an equitable claim by possess
sion and use of even a material por-
ton of it, we would not seek to dis
turb the existing lines only for much
smaller portion of territory, but such
use is not practicable to them.
! Fifth-The petition of those incon-
venienced by the present division of
this territory, who are residents of
the eastern part of Garfield should not
go unheeded, as they are now taxed

LESSONS IN SWIMMING.
Suggestions for Feminine AspIrants to the

The woman who can not swim has
just one advantage-she does not know
the delight she is missing. Only those
who have experienced the bliss of
cleaving the waters with steady strokes
and of feeling themselva as borne up by
the waves know anything about the
joys which non-swimmers miss. To
learn to swim the first requisite is con-
tidence-almost reckless confidence.

best school is the sea, and the best
teacher some sl1illful companion.
The pupil will not find the arm

an awful tendency IN her part To let
her legs drag behind her motionless.
An excellent way To countcract this
tendency is To have a piece OF board
small enough to he lightly clasped at

PROTECTION A SAFEGUARD.
A Reliable Source of Revenue for Govern
mental PurDoSes

A Reliable Source of Revenue for Govern
mental Purposes.
The Canadian parliament has been
CONFUSED with the question of protec.
tive duties, almost equal to that of the
national congress of the United States.
Very truly have the friends of protec-
tion in Canada said: ut should not
be forgotten by our electors of Canada
that when the liberal party ask them
to abandon protection to home indus
tries, they are asking them to do a
thing which the people of every other
country in the world. with the single
exception of Great Britain, have re-
fused to do.
Sir John Mcdonald is quoted as hav-
ing said, upon a certain occasions:
THE American farmer raises his one
hundred bushels of barley and starts
for his market and receives one hun
dred dollars. The Canadian farmer
raises his one hundred bushels of bar
ley and starts for the American mar
ket and is met by the government of
ficer to whom he must pay fifteen dol
lars, before he can put It upon the
market, where he receives his one hun
dred dollars, so that he returns home
with only eighty-ive dollars, having
left the other fifteen dollars with the
American custom house officers" Pro.
lection compels Canada to pay
tribute to the United States.
What is said in the foregoing aptly
illustrates the workings and methods
Of protection throughout the world.
The people of the United State are
now beginning to realize the truth of
this practical method of raising reve-
nue., since the whole country has been
thrown into a panic for nearly two
years by the promised change In the
bill now before congress-.

A PARTY WITHOUT BRAINS.
Democrats Lack Even the Elementary
Principles of Statesmanship

Democrats Lack Even the Elementary
Principles of Statesmanship
1t is becoming very evident, if there
was ever any doubt about it, that
there is not room in the United States
for two protectionist parties at the
same time. The democratic party
must have discovered this before it
framed and adopted the Chicago plat
form, and by various devices, some of
them not particularly reputable made
their opposition to protection win in
1892. No sooner, however, had they
undertaken to put their free trade
theories into practice than they
found nearly the whole coun-
try arrayed solidly against them.
The very fear of what they
might do created a paralysis of
domestic industry, a withdrawal of
capital, and shrinkage in the de-
mand for labor, accompanied, neces-
sarily, by reduction in wages. Then
the democratic party grew frightened
at the demon il had involved and fed
for refuge to the fortress of protection.
But instead of knocking at the gate
and demanding entrance, it climbed
over the walls and sneaked through
the wickets, and even when inside de-
MED that it had asked shelter of pro-
lection aud asserted that it still adj
hered to the banner of what it called
tariff reform.
We are strongly in favor of educa-
ton, but we maintain that congress is
not the place to teach would-be states
men the elementary principles of
craftsmanship. Some little knowledge
of everyday affairs, some little power
of reasoning, some modicum of com
mon sense is necessary in congress.
The proper place for this party of inn
becility is the lower grades of the pub
lie schools. They need some little
foundation of brains before they at
tempt to handle serious questions
