The Me ,rinr of protection.

In my opinion, the word protection
should be studied as to its meaning and
application. 1t is word that should be
held dear to the hearts Of every Ameri-
can, man, woman or child. 1t means,
as have been taught, defense, shelter
from evil, a passport exemption from
being molested 1t is very hard to ex-
plain to a man that is not informed
what cartel of commerce is-that it is
a writing containing stipnlaticns, that
gives aid and comfort to him i'll his ev-
eryday transactions. 1t covers his head,
shoes his feet, clothes his back and feeds
his stomach. Protection is the only safe
guard to American liberty. The man
that will vote against protection who is
a laborer and agrioulturist is certainly a
deluded man. 1 am now almost 70 years
old, have always been protectionist
and expect to be until time is no more
with me.-Logan Williamson.

''What figure docs the Indian work cut?'
VIRTUALLY none Of late There used to
be considerable sale for Indian work about
holiday time, but the aniline dyes they
used faded quickly, and their baskets,
which are all made of the lightest sort of
splints, became unpopular The scope of
the basket business is growing every year.
There is great demand for fancy work, es-
pecially with celluloid strips plated in to
relieve the silver and gold and colors with
which we wash tho willow work.
Here arc some things made to order
for gifts. This basket for silver Is q gem
for looks, and it will outlive any family.
The trade in trunks is getting to be great.
A basket trunk, covered with sole leather,
is one thing that q baggage smasher can't
phase at all. In Europe they are popular
because they are light. All the luggage
there is carried by weight"
"Are there any gypsy basket malsers?"
''No, but the gypsies arc great users Of
baskets. And 1 suppose it is because they

That Dollar Wheat.

Farmers may well remember the fall
Of 1892, when, during the presidential
campaign, they were told by the free
trade party that all they need do in or
der to secure dollar wheat was to vote
for Grover Cleveland and for every 9TH
er candidate of the same political faith.
Some farmers believed this dollar wheat
promise and voted as they were direct
ed. They are now reaping their harvest,
as the March IL report of the Stats
tician of the department of agriculture
points out in the following words:
The returns of the correspondents of
the department throughout the great
wheat surplus states indicate new fac
tor in the consumption Of whoat-viz,
the feeding of the Same to hogs and 9th
er stock, fact due, as declared, to the
unprecedentedly low prices, the claim
being made that this mode of disposing
Of the cereal is profitable as compared
with marketing it for human food.

The Fruits of Protection.
"When Freedom from her mountain height
Unfurled her banner to the air.
She vowed to keep Homes hearthstone bright
And to protect the loved ones there.
Beneath these starry folds" she cried,
18Th oppressed Of all the world shall meet,
And rich and poor shall, side by side,
Learn Liberty's allegiance sweet"
Lo! at her word across the land
The FORCES fires infiamed the night,
AND Capital, with kindly hand,
Led eager Labor to the light.
Each infant industry built up
It's home and homes for all whose skill
And faith and toll filled Plenty's cup
And bade the Nation drink at will.
Peace smiled above the smiling scene,
Contentment wreathed the matron's face,
While boys and girls of sturdy mien
In virtuous knowledge grew apace.

OF. we shall become nation of physical
bankrupts But one in twenty-five of
our young men can pass examination
for appointment to West Point or An
napolis. The gymnasiumns and ath-
letic fields of the Y. M. G. A. have been
the means of almost saving the lives of
thousands of the youth of our land, and
their usefulness has not yet reached it's
highest point.
The supreme aim of the Y. M. G. A..
is to lead young men into the church.
1t is, with many, the first step toward a
better life. "Only five per cent of the
young men of our country are chris
tians," was the lament of the clergy a
few years ago. Wisely enough, the
church fathers sent the few christian
young men out to reach the young men
who were not christians. They have
thus done work that could not have
been done in any other way, and in our
own state, last year, through the direct
influence of this one agency, over five
hundred young men were brought into
the church. But more than this, is the
moral influence it exerts over hundreds
who frequent the rooms. Longfellow
wrote:
81 shot an arrow into the air,
1t fell to earth knew not where;
For, so swiftly 1t flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight
breathed song into the air,
1t fell to earth, knew not where;
For who has sight so keen and strong
That it can follow the fight of song.
Long, long afterward, in an oak
found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
1 found again in the heart of friend.'l
And so many convincing arrows en-
ter the hearts of young men, that bear
fruit in leading to stronger and better
lives.

THE DEATH OF "PIE FACE"
An Engine He Rode for Years Cut the
Peor Fsilsw In Two.

'Pie Face" is dead. When the engine
he had been riding In and about the
Montana Centrars Helena yards for
years cut him I'm two yesterday, every
passenger who has been using that
road constantly, every hsckman who
has carried people 10 and from the de-
pot, every newsboy and every child
whom business or curiosity had ever
taken there, lost friend; but none lost
better friend than did the railroad
boys. For PIE Face" loved everybody
but Cinnamon, and everybody bIVed
"Pie Face"
The late "Ple Face" was a brindle
bun dog. Unlike other dogs OF that
breed. he was playful and gentle and
had never exhibited the least Sign OF
viciousness. Children petted him ard
older folks plagued him a little Just 10
hear him bark; pie Face" liked the
caresses OF the little ones, and never re-
sented the good natured chaffing OF the
bigger ones. He knew he was ugly, else
he would never have answered 10 the
name OF pie Face" and the knowledge
seemed 70 make him good nntured.
Barney Crowley brought pie Face"
from Butte some four years ago. As
his master was employed about the
Montana Central yards. "Pic Face"
soon took TO railroad life. His daily
duty consisted OF riding up and down
the yards on the switch engine and he
always tried to get as near To- the front
as possible so as to bark. II mnttered
little TO pie Face" what he barked at
man, dog. horse or car-and he did It
in such a good natured way.
II was this habit which led 10 his
taking of. Foreman 4. J. Fennell. with
his assistants, Barney Crowley and M.
J. Ford. started with the switch engine
yesterday 10 throw two cars ON TO an
other track. Having gotten a good
headway on the engine cut loose and
started off at full speed TO make the
switch and throw II for the cars. PIE
Face" was on the rear end OF the en-
gine, on the tank, and as the engine WAS
running backwards. the men did not see
him. They heard him barking. and then
the barking ceased. PIE Face" had
ventured too near the edge OF the tank.
He slipped and fell across the track,
and the wheels cut him in two. The
cars following passed over him also.
When the men reached pie Face" he
was stlll breathing, and as the engine
came slowly toward him he raised on
his fore legs and took last pitiful look
at the big mass Of iron that he had
loved SO long, and which crushed his
life out. Then he lay down. and 20 put
him out OF his misery he was dispatched
with pick.
pie Face" will be buried to-day with
honors. and II is safe 10 say. with tears.
