So Congressman Hines is no longer
Postmaster General Bissell's friend.
This may be more alarming as a fact
than appears at first sight. Mr..
Hines is credited to the Luzerne dis
trict, county having POI, ,2O3 popu-
Iatlon at the last census, and that
gave Mr.. Hines 1,4G2 majority in a
total vote Of 31,O3G two years ago.
This vote was cast in 240 election
precincts, in which there are 134 post
offices, ten by presidential appoint
ment. Here is the cause Of Mr..
Hines break with Mr.. Bissell The
situation up that way is importunate
and important. Mr. Hines claims
that every nomination should have his
Endorsement, and unless this is the
case no number of peace commits
sioners can maintain harmony, anG
without harmony and the offices nc
Democrat can hope to carry the elec
tion precincts that gave the majority
in 1892. Mr.. Bissell does not sc
think with Mr.. Hines on the subject
and there is the nutshell and the nut
Perhaps Mr.. Hines will revise his
views as more offices come DUE

In the debates on the tariff, both
IN the house and senate, the Repub-
ilcans have stood up gallantly and de-
tended the principles Of their party
and then own convictions. There is
nothing that is more admirable in a
man than to see him upholding what
he thinks is right, and whether his
opinion in the matter is correct or
not, he deserves commendation for
his courage in expressing it. Con.
trasted with the faltering and piteous
appeals that have been made by
many Democratic speakers in con
gress, the arguments of Republicans
Tor a continuance of the protective
policy are superior in every respect,
simply because the men who now
control the Democratic party will not
stand up and speak out the real
meaning Of their last national plat-
form. The position in which thew
have placed the organization is a
humiliating one, for with every de.
partment of the government under
their control they are afraid to reduce
the tariff; yet, like Billy Hines .
large number of them will have the
audacity to ask for a re election
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-04-26

If man tells you that protection
increases wages, ask him to explain
why it is that free trade England
pays higher wages today than during
the days Of her protective policy.
Ask him why it is that she pays high
er wages than any of the other old
countries, which have protection.
Ask him why it is that right here in
this country, where the tariff is the
same in every part, wages are higher
in the west than in the east, and
higher in the north than in the south.

And. somehow. with that little prayer
And that sweet treble In my ears.
My thought goes back to distant
years.
And fingers with dear ono there;
And, rs | hear the chlld's amen,
My mothers faith comes back 10 me,
couched at her side 1 seem to be.
And mother holds my hands again.
OH for an hour In that dear placei
Obi for the peace OF that dear timcl
OH for that childish trust sublimol
OH for glimpse Of mothers facet
Yet as the shadows round me creep.
do not seem to be alone
Sweet magic OF that treble tone
And NOW 1 lay me down to sleep"
