Look Forward, Not Backward, and Prepare
For the Coming Victory.
Seven southern senators and congress-
men, with one northern senator of
southern sympathies, have been intrust-
ed with the industrial destinies of TO-
600, 900 of people. Jones, Wilson, Nc
Millin, Turner and Montgomery come
from villages with less than a combined
population of 10, 900. What can north
ern industries expect from these men?
Not one of them knows anything of the
needs of labor and industry, and yet
they are to shape tariff bill that must
overthrow our whole splendid network
of industrial activity and progress. And
where lies the blame? With the north
ern Democrats who in 1892 voted for
Grover Cleveland and Democratic free
trade congress.
The lesson must be learned, and it will
prove bitter experience. 1t is too late
to look back. We must look forward and
repair the wrong as soon as we can. We
must begin at once and labor necessarily
till the bill which seems destined to be-
come law is replaced by law Of pro-
lection. Our country must recede, our
laborers must be idle, our factories
closed, our savings withdrawn and
spent, our splendid progress, national
and individual, checked, but nex5 No
vember and again in 1896 we can right
the wrong, and we must do it so en-
phatically that the Democratic party
will not again come to the front for a

The Liverpool Mercury comments
editorially upon the position of affairs
in the United States and says, "The
shackles of protection were strengthened
to an unprecedented extent by the Nc
Kinley tariff. " With this opinion we
cordially agree, and if it were to apply
this one fact to the case of our recent
labor troubles it would find that it was
the very fear of the loosening of "the
shackles of protection" that has result
ed in the unfortunate condition of our
items of thousands of men, who have
not yet been ground down to condition

Americans and not for foreigners.

An Object Lesson In Free Trade.

In search of some employment, but my efforts

clothes and homes,
Our song of joy was drowned by the music OF
the looms.
To the old mill every morning we marched in

The free trade plague is coming; we must shut
down at last.

had made

My clothes are in the pawnshop. 1 am now
ashamed to meet
In the happy hours of daylight the friends
used to greet
The home that had furnished with many a
fond device
The free trade scourge has robbed me of that
humble paradise.
i have nothing now to live for but a duty to

My hopes in life were buried with the closing

But 1 cannot leave dear grandma. She took

And nursed me in my infancy when my own

How the Word ..ridbits, Originated.

The word "tidbits" is derived from
two Anglo-Saxon words, tydder, It'd or
tit, meaning delicate, tender, nice, and
bita, a mouthful or morsel. Thus in its
full original sense tidbit is delicate
morsel of anything eatable, while by
custom it has come to mean anything
smart. interesting or pithy.

after the most desperate kind of struggle
was captured. Yesterday morning he
pleaded guilty in Judge WalIace's court
and asked for mercy. He got twenty
years in San Quentin. Ten minutes later
he made a desperate but futile effort 10
escape, while his poor wife stood by and
cried as sne saw his attempt frustrated.
When brought over to court from the
G ounty Jail yesterday morning the pris-
oner announced his intention of pleading
guilty, and when his case was calle1 he
was as good as his word. He arc Sc and
said he had robbed Montgomery as the
latter stepped out of the church, but
pleaded that he had been driven To IL by

to the City Prison, where the prisoner was
to be left awaiting the arrival of the

Mrs. Thomas. the prisoners wife, was
following behind, and as the twain reached
the court in front of the prison door she
gave Shrek. Her husband had made his
first effort for freedom.
With his disengaged hand he swung
around and landed as hard az the position
