for that principle because it believes in
America: it believes in the United

done abroad We want it done in the

people. and we don't want any European
conditions here or the wages of the
European labor here"
He further said: If we elect re-

year then the democratic party can do
no harm after the 4th of March next.
II we elect democratic house of rep

this country will suffer in its invest

will suffer in the price paid for the pro-

lican delegation in the national house

The fact is well known that large
minority of democrats, in Maine fully
forty per cent, are opposed to the ex-
listing tariff and to any further steps
in that direction, and prefer the act of
1890, whether improved or not. If these
democrats, or only moderate proper
ton of them, agree with the repub-
licans in the election this fall, the act
of 1890 will be substantially restored
without any serious delay or contro-
versy, and tariff agitation will be
stopped for years to come. To some
this may seem improbable because the
president may resist, and perhaps the
senate also. But the power of an edict
Of the people has not often been re-
sisted with success. The present SEN
ate embraces a majority of members
who would have defeated the tar
iff exactly as it stands if they
could have found a chance The
changes to be made in March will
probably increase the number of it's
opponents in that body. If the people
legislatures which have senators to
elect, the president will be confronted
very early with a measure repeating
the offensive act of ''perfidy and dis
honor" which he refused to sign, and
it is not to be assumed that he would
in such case defy the declared wishes
of the people.
That is the only way conceivable to
end tariff agitation for years to come.
Business men who are childishly pratt
ting about suspending controversy
until the present law has been tried
are shutting their eyes to the fact that
all the republicans and nearly all the
democrats want some change without
delay and will make desperate effort
for it as soon as congress meets again.
They can no more avoid this than they
can prevent the rising of the sun to-
morrow. Absolutely the only thing
they can do is to decide whether they
will have the tariff of 1890 restored or
such tariff as the democratic party,
strengthened by successful appeals to
the people, may see fit to enact as
further step in the progress toward
free trade. They can choose when they
vote, but they are unspeakably foolish
il they imagine that's democratic vote
will mean anything except further
progress toward free trade and trusts,
servitude to foreigners and servitude
to mOnopolies-N. Y. Tribune.

THAT is what we object to- II we do not de,
fend our home markets against the products
of the cheaper labor of other nations, who
will: Is it any wonder that the gentlemen OF
the chamber of commerce of London applauded
Mr.. Wilson when he uttered such a senti-
ment?'
Gov. Mckinley, Congressman Wilson
and Sir Alfred Kaye Rollitt all agree
on one point, that the protectionists of
America tried to keep the home mar
ket for Americans, that the tariff re-
formers are breaking down these de-
lenses and that Europe is the country
to profit by the change of policy in
America Gov. Mckinley has for years
claimed that this would be the result
of free trade, and when the Mckinley
law was enacted he was the one Amer
lean most hated in England. because
it made more difficult the efforts of
English manufacturers to secure the
American market for their goods. Mr..
Wilson now agrees with Gov. Mckin-
lev, and admits that the tariff reform
ers intend to break down all the pro-
tective defenses around the American
market, a confession which demo-
Gratis have not been willing to make at

prophecies by admitting that 1.-The new

and Englishmen testify to benefits
they have received from the demo-
cratic legislation? AS Gov. Mckinley
said at Findlay, the new tariff law is

party mend to carry on the war I'M

STARTLING STATISTICS.

Lunacy is increasing at an extra
ordiary rate in England according
to parliamentary report just is
sued and which contains an exhaust
i've report from the commissioners
in Lunacy. The report says that
there were in England and Wales
on August /, nearly $4,000 lunatics,
idiots and persons of unsound mind,
According to various reports made
to the commissioners, this number
was 2,245 in excess of the CORES
ponding returns for the previous
year, and showed the largest in the
number of officially known lunatics
yet recorded. The report proceeds;
"This large increase calls the more
for special consideration because it
follows an increase Of 1,794 in the
preceding year, that being far
above the average for the ten years
from 1882 to 1892 which was only
10000, The increase seems to be
fairly general throughout England
and Wales, but the predominant fea-
ture of the figures is the great in
crease in the county Of London, its
pauper lunatics numbering on Jam
uary /, 800 more than they did a
year previously. 1t is, perhaps,
right in this connection to point out
that for the administrative county OF

there is shown for last year an ex'

of the famous mare La Fleche, by
whom the greater portion of the
above named large sum was won,
had displayed great generosity in
giving away all his winnings for
charitable purposes without sub
tracing his expenses. What is to
be said, however, when, as in the
present instance, the example set
by the Baron in 1898 is not only fol
lowed but duplicated in 1894? Dur
ing the racing season which closed
in November last Baron de Hirsch's
horses won in public stakes about
$37 900. This seemed to him, and
to the kindly almoner through
whom in both cases the Baron's
bounty has flowed, to be but a small
sum for distribution in comparison
with the noble contribution to Lon
don charities made on the previous
year. Under these circumstances
the Baron remarked that, without
establishing precedent, he had
made up his mind to double the sum
that his gross winnings amounted
to in 1898, and accordingly he drew
a check for $75, 900, which he hand
ed to his friend for distribution. 1t
was his wish that the sum should
be divided up among London hos
pitfalls and charitable institutions,
and 500, 800 was thus disposed of,
the balance remaining having been
reserved for sundry calls.

A GENEROUS BARON.

The London (Eng.) Telegraph,
commenting on the generous nature
and many charitable deeds, of the
world famous philanthropist, Baron
Hirsch, has this to say;
Rather more than a year since
we gave a list Of the charitable do
nations bestowed by Baron de
Hirsch in 1898 upon the hospitals
homes and benevolent institutions
which he had selected as recipients
of the large sums of money won by
him upon the turf by public stakes
in 1891 and 1892 In the first of
those years the Baron won about
$25, 600 and in the second about
$l75, 900, including such small items
as moneys paid to the second in
selling races and the prizes attach
ing to second and third places in
general races, Altogether the sum
amounted to about 100000, and
this munifcent gift represented
the Barons gross winnings in public
stakes, from which no deduction
was made for the expense of train
ing a large stud of horses, for trav-
cling charges, forfeits, stakes, jock
eys, fees and other items comprised
in the large aud swollen bills with
which owners of race horses are
but too familiar 1t was universally
admitted that the fortunate owner
