The True Issue.
From Hdrper's Weekly

Among the many public utterances
of President Cleveland none has been
more characteristic than his recent let
ter to Mr.. Catchings, in which he gives
his reasons for permitting the so called
German tariff bill to become law with
out his signature, and in that letter
there is no sentence more pregnant
with weighty meaning than this: The
trusts and combinations-the commu-
nism of pelf-whose Vaccinations have
prevented us from reaching the success
we deserved, should not be forgotten
nor forgiven. We shall recover from
our astonishment at their exhibition of
power, and if then the question is
forced upon US whether they shall sub
init to the free legislative will OF the
peoples representatives or shall dictate
the laws which the people must obey,
we will accept and settle that issue as
one involving the integrity and safety
of American institutions" In this SEN
tence MIR. Cleveland has touched a
phase of the protective tariff question
which the American people have been
only too much inclined to overlook, but
which has been set forth in a glorious
light by the recent occurrences in the
Senate.
We have seen in the Congress of the
United States members of the party,
put in power for the very purpose OF
reforming the tariff, stand up for pro
tected manufacturing Interests, and
use in their behalf the identical argu
ments with which the Republican pro
tectionists had been in the habit of de
Tending the principle of protection
Those renegades were SO shameless ir
their zeal for those protected interests
as to throw overheard the whole theory
upon which the party TO which they
pretended to belong had made the figh
against the protective policy, thus
virtually branding that fight as a wick
ed attempt to injure the public welfare
for if the arguments used in behalf o
the protected interests were right, al
efforts to disturb the protective system
were wrong. President Cleveland Ger
| tainly did not go too far when he de
bounced such conduct as treason to TIN
| party and its cause.

Passing tariff bills seems to prove dis
astrOus to parties. The law of 1883 was
passed just after all elections; but the
election, which was an overwhelming
defeat of the party then in control of
Congress, followed the declaration that
the tariff was to be revised and the in
vestigation of the subject for months
by commission. The revision did not
imply any change in general policy, but
the Congressional election went strong
ly against the party that was making
a new tariff, and so did the Presidential
election next following. The tariff was
again revised in 1890, and again with
out any change of general policy,
though it involved more extreme APP
plicatien of the policy. Again the par
ty that passed new tariff law was de
feated in the Congressional elections
and the ensu Jig Presidential election.
Now third tariff law has been made,
but this time ostensibly on principle
nof applied before for nearly 40 years.
The elections in Vermont and Maine
do not look as if the presidents of 1882
and 1890 were to be departed from. As
compared with two years ago, the Re-
publican vote in Vermont shows an in
crease of A. 791. and the Democratic vote
decrease of 2,205. The full returns
from Maine are not yet in, but in 1e9
towns the Republican increase was 1, 1913
as compared with two years ago. and
the Democratic loss 25.756 The Presi
dents + olicy in Hawaii and Samoa was
more likely to be unpopular in Maine
than in any other State, and may have
have had something to do with the re-
fusal of more than two thirds of the
Democrats to vote.-N Y. Journal OF

Thunder Doesn't Sour Milk.

Science has disproved the rural belief
that thunder sours milk. 1t is now
known that the souring results from a
fungous growth, and that this fungus is
peculiarly fatal to nursing children.
The old time rural belief was that the
conclusion from thunder acted mechan-
ically upon the milk and first soured and
then solidifed it. The theory is a plaus-
ible one, easily derived from observing
one set Of facts without knowing the
existence of others more important to
the situation. 1t happens that milk
sours during or just after thunderstorms
because the atmospheric conditions then
prevailing are usually of kind favor
able to the rapid development of the
fungous growth that sours milk.-Phil-

The Relations of Japan and China TO
Korea.

The relations of Japan and of China
| to Korea date back to very early times
Both have conquered her, and she has
successfully recognized each as a suze
rain power. 1t would be idle, how
ever, to attempt to define these claims
to suZerainty, whether arising from
conquest or from mutual arrangement
| They were of a peculiar character and
possess no practical significance under
the rules by which states now govern
their relations to each other. Japan's
claim lapsed long ago. China has vir-
tually abandoned hers on several occa-
sions. To the United States and to
France, respectively, when they de-
manded reparation for injuries sustain
ed by their citizens in Korea, China
expressly disavowed any responsibility
for the actions Of that country, and
looked on without protest while each
of those powers in succession sent mill.
tary expeditions against Korea. China
made no objection when in 1876 Japan
concluded treaty with Korea, which
in distinct terms asserts the indepen-
dence of the Korean kingdom. Nor
did she interfere when several years
later first the United States. and then
other Western powers in rapid success
sion, entered into such treaties with
Korea as could only have been con-
Guided with an autonomous state
And, finally, in 1885 China agreed to
the Tientsin Convention with Japan,
than which there could not have been
more complete surrender of what
ever alleged suzerain priviles she might
up to that time have still claimed the
right to exercise. To these examples,
and to others that might be cited, the
only answer ever made is that China
has long maintained relations of be-
nevolence" toward neighboring weak
er states. which cannot be precisely
explained by the definitions of inter
national law, but which nevertheless
gives her the right to assume certain
supervision over the affairs of those
countries. Whatever may have been
true of the past, when the West had
not come into close contact with the
East, and when China claimed suzerain
rights over all the world within the
limits of her geographical knowledge,
such pretension to day is a manifest
absurdity. 1t is more !; it is an offence
against the laws of nations when, as in
the present case, the claim is at times
openly disavowed, and then surrep
titiously utilized to the injury of limo
cent nations to which the alleged sub
ordinate or tributary country is bound
by covenants and obligations assumed
as an Independent state. - From

White Woman as an Apache Warrior.
The following story is told by one Of
Arizona's early pioneers:
In 1864 Dr. Alsap and Lord Duppa,
well known pioneers, were prospecting
with party in the Bradshaw noun
tains on the Hassayampa creek. One
morning the party separated for the pur-
pose of hunting. In going up canyon,
in which they were separated from their
companions by high mountains, Dup
pas detachment was attacked by large
band of Tonic Apaches. The whites
gradually fought their way across the
ridge with the hope of rejoining their
companions. During the advance Dup
pa, who was stationed behind rock,
noticed that he was the particular mark
of an Indian with bow. Several ar
rows had fallen at his feet, and one
struck him in the arm. Raising his rifle,
he took aim, and just as he was touch
ing the trigger the supposed Indian
cried, Don't shootI" in good English,
but it was too late, and the body fell
over with life extinct Soon after the
two parties succeeded in forming juno
ton, and the Indians retreated, leaving
their dead.
Out of curiosity the party returned to
the place where Duppa killed the sup
posed Indian and found that it was a
white woman, evidently about 80 years
of age and dressed in all the parapher

the artist NJ Casimer- Perier, Jr., was
an intimate friend of Corot. On visit
which he made to the great artist in

forest of Fontainebleau, he found Corot
putting the last touches on his ''Biblis"

Frenchman.
In Chailly, where Millet lived, the
butcher and baker were asked to make
out their bills and send them to M.

Millet had lived ON credit for ~ years.
and that the bills amounted respectively
to %, 900 and $4,000 francs-over 50,

to agreement and carried home the
