called 'niuepence,' York shilling and bit

enabled him 10 make crowning triumph in the
way OF a close trade.
"A farm boy came along one day with q loAd
OF pumpkins which he was peidling about the
village at a cent apiece. Mr.. Putterby, Aftes
examining them, thought he would invest bat

slaughter in winter, that In many States fishing
through the Ice and spearing have been restrict

the New Jersey lakes. culver's Lake, Budd's
Lake. and Lake Hopatcong are favorites, the

superior accommodations.
The best way to enjoy day or two Of sport II
to arrange by letter with q local guide or resi-
dent to receive notice when there is q good, frm,
clear coat of ice on the lake. Otherwise the
angler will run the risk of arriving on the
scene Just a snow storm has covered the lako

IL not an insu 2erable obstacle, for 1t can be
swept away. but rain or q thaw is fatal. It's
of no use to try to plan an outfit. II you have
been on similar expedition before, you know
that none is needed save q warm suit Of clothes,
a fur or q knit cap to draw down over the cara.
and pair of real Scotch woollen gloves. homely
as can be. but the only truly warm hand cover
ing made that is not too clumsy. No winds are
colder than those which sweep the Jersey
hills In winter and drive the sleet down her ice
clad rivers and lakes, and so the angler will end
that the above advice is not to be disregarded,
except at the risk of chilblains or frost bites.
Fer tackle you will find that residents Of the
locality can Mt you out far better than any city

summer season tackle Is OF service. unless per-

fishing are heavier than those employed In sum-

A Bad Lesson Quickly Learned.

n bhd Lesson Quickly Learned.
The roitipz Polish laborers Of Detroit
may be taken as fair specimens of q GER
tain class OF foreigners, who have been
quick TO learn a bad leszon. Since they
have been in this country they have
heard preached and seen pr~acticed the
doctrine that a man may decline. to
work and smash the head OF another
man, who work or tries to work; aud
that men may band together and use
force 10 violate the right OF other men
10 work.
The water commissioners OF Detroit
resolved to pay By the yard for digging.
The Polish laborers .hon in their en-
ploy demanded pay by the day at the
rate Of 81 so. They declared tina. they
would not work and would not per-
nit other men to work on any other
;erms. The effort to mnster the sisua.
tion has cost some lives and a few
broken heads. Tho fight was furious
while it LASTED, the sheriff aud : few
deputies being confronted by about
four hundred madtencd Poles.
The rioters seem TO have though. that
the sheriff and his men were intcrier-
ing with their rights to quit work and
to prevent others from working. So
much false doctrine has been spread
through the country that it is not sur
pris!ng that newcomers have taken up
with it.
The fact is that every mans right to
work without interference is SO sacred
that he should be protected in il il it
take the whole force OF the state power
and all that the government Of the
United States can command.

Wide.Apart Ideas of..Tarir reform

Hidc-Apart Ideas of''TariH reform
In the past fiscal year this country
imported dutiable merchandise valued
at s4G0.069.85S. This, OF course, was
under the Mckinley tariff. If tie VII
son bill az it passed the house had been
in operation, the value OF dudsble i'm
ports would have been abou. $4,000
900 les.. II the Wilson bill With the
proposed senate amendments had been
in operation the value Of dutiable com
modities imported would have been
S7s,ooQ,OO0 more than under the Nc
Kinley law.
That ia to say, the house bill takes
from the dutiabIe lis. the sum named,
the senate amendments propose 10 add
10 that list By the amount given. The
difference between the house idea and
tie senate idea With regard TO the du,ia.
BILE list IL the sum Of Sl27,.
100000 of value. Both ideas are Demo.
cratic, and supposed to be based on the
platform declaration.
The Mckinley tariff produced last
year a revenue of sl93, 1000, being
49.5S per cent on the dutiable list. The
house bill would yield s47.Oo0,0oO less,
and average Of 1852 per cent on. the
dutiable list The senate bill would
bring in s35,0O0,OOo less than the BIC,
Kinley law, az average Of 2+.I5 per cent
on the dutiable list.
The house bill admits sugar free, the
senate bill makes it dutiable, which &C.
counts for the vas. difference in the
gross value OF dutiable imports. This
difference is radical.
How two ideas 60 variant can grow
out Of the game tariff plank ia not easy
TO understand. When Democrats show
the courage TO hurrah for the tariff bill
it is worth while to know which one
they are hurrahing for.

The Ba,tleahip and tho Torpedo.

Tho sinking CT tho Brazilian rebel
battleship Aquidaban by government
~torpedocs, is another reminder OF the
constant danger tho great war shipa
run OF being disabled or destroyed by
submerged machines.
Tho Aquidaban is . comparatively
new battleahip OF the fret class. She
was one Of the most admired OF all the
great war craft assembled in New York
barhor in the naval review a year ago.
Nothing seemed wanting to make her as
formidable as anything ~aflcati yet she
was rs powerless ;sainst torpedocs as
though she had been n cookie shall.
No armament withstands the destroy
ing torpedo, which goes quietly to its
work and makes known Its presence by
tho destruction it has wrought. There
are devices to ward of the torpedo, but
the little destroyer nevertheless gots in
its deadly blows.

The idea OF the Pennsylvania senators
is, that If the Democratic party passes 8

should have money go inferior tina: it
would no: be accepted abroad IN ez-
change for commodities. By this means

maid Of protection.

for inferior money but they have never
