Mr.. Wilson's Canras.'

The New York World says The enthu.
siasm with which Mr.. Wilson has been well
coined to his home in West Virginia and
the spirit in which he has entered upon his
canvas for reelection to the House serve to
explain the confident faith of his friends
that cannot be defeated
Mr.. Wilson's defeat would be a national
as well as party loss. In the elevation of
his character, the honesty of his purpose,
tue breadth of his knowledge and his gift of
clear and eloquent speech he is an honor to
his State and an ornament to the national
legislature. His leadership on the floor of
the House has been in the highest degree
successful. His party associates have loved
and trusted him aud his opponents have
paid him the tribute of admiration and re-
spect The importan. measures intrusted
to his management during both sessions OF
the present Congress have been prepared
with care, advocated with skill and passed
with promptness.
Mr. Wilson's intelligent and faithful lead
ership for genuine tariff reform has earned
for him the interested enmity of the pro-
tected trusts and the men who make politics
part of their business. They will pour out
money freely to compass his defeat. But
we mistake the patriotism, the principle and
the loyalty of the voters of his district If be is
not reelected by triumphant majority.

But canst thou wait in patience, make no

And where in power thou failst-oh, not in

See sore need served by other hands than

And other hands the dear desires fulfill,
Hear Others gain the thanks that thou

Representative Wilson Abroad.

Our English brethren have just been af-
forded the opportunity Of hearing a speech
from another American statesman Of whom
the American nation is proud. William l.
Wilson, who has spoken to them, is one Of
the best examples of American production
in its politics. He is alike thoughtful and
broad minded citizen, an accomplished
scholar and fascinating orator. He has
come into prominence at home purely by the
force of his talent, aud he has secured uni
yersal respect here from the intelligent sim
cerity with which his principles are held
He represents the best kind of progress
among our people The nation has been
fortunate as rule in the kind Of mon who
have spoken for her in foreign Countries
We have public men whom we are less COM
placent in claiming as the product of our
institutions, but fortunately their tastes do
not often lead them to display their talent
to foreign nations. Men who get into Office
by their riches alone have very little that
they desire to say in public as American
representatives when they are away from
their country, and those among us who are
devotees to machine politics and apostles Of
the spoils system might as well talk in for
eign tongue as to advocate their views in
audiences where it is simply incomprehen-
sible that craftsmanship should take this
form of manifestation. Mr.. Wilson's speech
in England was one of his ablest, and he
has attained by it, we do not question, a
reputation fully consonant with that he
enjoys in his own country He is one Of
the school in craftsmanship of Everett, Low
ell, Bancroft and Bayard, and he sdds to the
estimation into which they have brought
the public men Of the United States.-BOs-
ton Herald.

Democratic majority of the present Houses
of Congress did not do all that we hoped
There were sins of omission and there were
sins of commission But let Us dwell less
upon the little in which we have failed and
more upon the great and enduring work
that was accomplished.
/ Let us try to realize not only the great
ness of the work but the immense Difficult
ties which were eloquently described by Mr..
Wilson himself in memorable speech
"When the eyes of the prophets servant
were unsealed he saw encamped around the
prophet mighty hosts and chariots invisible
to other eyes. So when the servant of the
people comes to deal with the tariff question
he sees with a clearness of vision not grant
ed to others those mighty hosts, the powers
of wealth and combinations; of monopoly
in all of its odious and defiant forms; great
corporations aud monster trusts, all formed
in linked phalanx around the protective
system"
This was the struggle which the Demo
cratic Hercules was compelled to maintain
And when the battle was over and count
was taken of the results whatever might be
said about the details Of the engagement,
this one thing above all other things is Ger
tain, that the old Dragon of Protection has
been pierced in vital spot and that hurt
ful economic falacies, touched by Wilson's
Ithuriel's spear, are rapidly assuming their
true aud odiOus shapes
And we can all rejoice and take courage
in this conviction that high protection,
the taxation of the many for the benefit OF
the few, that McKinleyism and all that the
name implies has fallen like Babylon, the
wicked never to rise again.
The false gods of protection have been
tumbed from their shrines, and the intel
lect and thought of the people has been
freed from the tyranny Of false ideas. No
matter with what rites and with what sol
emnities Mckinley and the other high
priests of protection may again eudeavor to
devote the American citizen upon the altar
of this intellectual slavery, the altar and the
god sinks together into the dust while he
stands redeemed, regenerated and Olsen
thralled by the genius Of Democratic eman-
cipation.
So much we can truly claim as the result
of twenty months of power.
To the continuance of this work the DEM
ocratic party has dedicated herself She
has nailed the flag of tariff reform to her
mast. She has drawn the sword of Equal
Rights and she has thrown away the scab
bard and you can trust her.
You can trust the party of Jefferson, of
Madison, of Jackson, of Cleveland, and of
Wilson.
Now a word more. 1t has been said that
the streets of Jerusalem were kept clean be-
cause each man swept in front of his own
door, and | say to you that the success of
the Democratic party in this district de-
pends upon the labor and fidelity Of the in
dividuals who compose it.
Let each of you to-day dedicate himself
to the high purpose that he will spare moth
ing of his individual effort to the end that
those priceless principles which are embod-
led in the personality Of William L. Wilson
shall live and give yet fuller iruition to
the peoples hopes.

PrOrinG His Identitv.

Nathaniel Hawthorne was a kind hearted
man as we'll as great novelist. While he
was consul at Liverpool, young Yankee
walked into his Office. The boy had left
home to seek his fortune, but evidently
hadn't found it yet, although he had crossed
the sea in his search. Homesick, friendless,
nearly pennyess, he wanted passage home.
The clerk said Mr.. Hawthorne could not be
seen, and intinated that the boy was no
American, but was trying to steal passage.
Tie boy stuck to his point, and the clerk
at last went to the little room, aud said to
Mr.. Hawthorne: Heres boy who insists
upon seeing you. He says is an American,
but know he isn't"
Hawthorne came out Of the room, and
looked keenly at the eager, ruddy face Of the
boy ''You want passage to America ~
"Yes, sir
"And you say you're an American"
"Yes, sir"
From what part Of America"
United States, sir"
"What State ?"
"New Hampshire. sir"
Town"
Exeter, sir"
Hawthorne looked at bin for a minute
before asking him the next question.
"Who sold the best apples in your town ?"
"Skim milk Folsom, sir" said the boy,
with glstening eyes, as the old familiar by
word brought up the dear old scenes Of home.
"It's all right" said Hawthorne to the
clerk, give him passage"

Effects of Free Wool.

These are tough times for the Republican
calamity howler. He was was dead certain
before the passage of the Wilson bill not
only that free wool would knock the bottom
out Of prices and ruin the wool and sheep
industries, but that the great reductions Of
the duties on woolens would close up all Of
our wooden mills His position is now most
pitiable Facts seem to refuse to submit to
his pessimistic theories; moreover, they
stand out so plainly that he cannot possibly
deceive the voters until November. While
prices Of foreign woods have fallen about 40
per cent.-just as the Democrats promised
prices of domestic woods have advanced
fully 10 per cent over Mckinley prices Of
three months ago Forty mentions of new
mills, 70 of engagements and improvements
sc of mills starting up, aud onlv two Tor
possibly fye) of mills idle because Of lack
of orders is the record for the first month
under free wool. Protectionist croakers can
find no such prosperous record, with 80 few
shutdowns, during any consecutive three
weeks of the four years Of McKinleyism.
Free wool has caused the change from
idleness to activity. 1t is setting the old
spindles to turning and bringing thousands
of new ones into existence.
