Despite all Democratic efforts to
befog the issue, the political battle OF
1896 will be In the cause of piotec.
ton. Complicated questions of cur
rency that cannot be settled by cam.
paign, but rightly belong to confer
ence Of expert f1nanciers, capable OF
separating the false from the true,
cannot displace the great policy from
the American industries.
This assertion is purely dispassion-
ate and logical. Since 1892, the time
OF the present administrations rise ia
power, disaster has involved the en-
tire country throtlling enterprises
and stagnating prosperous business
ventures on every hand.
A healthy treasury has become an
empty one and the national debt has
been increased by millions Of dollars.
Not only this financial distress, but
every day adds an appalling quota to a
monstrous Treasury deficiency. Gov
eminent receipts lag far behind gov.
eminent expenditures and revenues
have decreased to an alarming ex-
tent.
Common sense tells the people that
the tariff policy OF the dominant ad-
ministration is at the root Of all
these commercial and ind ustrial woes.
Under protection everything flourish
ed exceedingly; under moderate free
trade everything has deprecated. -

THE JUNIORS NAPOLEON SERIAL.

The Junior begins with this issue series
of sketches of the boyhood and youth or
the great Napoleon. The story OF the life
OF no other mortal man is so thrilling ana
interesting as that of Napoleon Bonaparte
Particularly is ii interesting 10 young peo-
pie, and il is with pleasure thai we an
rource to our young readers that for the
next few weeks we viii publish regularly
short sketches of the boyhood and youth of
this remarkable man.
The sketches are written by Professor
John Clark Ridpath, one of the most pop
ular of American historical writers. and the
Illustrations are taken from the best known
and most famous pictures. Some OF the
great American magazines are now making
special features of lives and portraits OF
Napoleon, but none OF them are more eX-
cellent or charming. than the series OF
sketches by Professor Ridpath, which viii
appear in The Junior
These sketches should be read by all the
readers OF The Junior.
They combine both instruction and pleas
urc, and we fell sure that they will be read
with unusual interest not only by the
BOYS and girls, but also by older people.
The first sketch which appears in this is
sue deals with the family of Napoleon and
his birth. 1t viii be followed by the story
of his early boyhood. his education, and
some of the most important and noted
events in his early career as soldier The
sketches viii be illustrated with pictures
OF Bonaoarte at various age, and with some
OF the notable scenes in his history. Taken
altogether they viii form most enter

MANY FORMS and gave rise to some dis
cussion and confusion afterwards. One
story ran to the effect that Napoleon Bona
narte was born January z, 1868. and Joseph
about nineteen months afterwards, that is
August Is. 1863. 1t was believed at one
tsme that the father interchanged the
dates of the birth of his Two eldest sons
,r order to get Napoleon into the military
academy before his tenth year--a thing
necessary under the law. But 1T is now
known that no such thing occurred. The
onIv Ground for the invention OF the fiction
vas the fact that Joseph's middle name
vas originally Nabulione. and that this
name. in a modified form. was afterwards
conferred on the younger SEN. True, the
Corsican Jacob was destined from birth to
clutch the heel of ESau, and to supplant
him i'm history. The elder was to serve
the Younger, but this was to be effected,
not by a trick of the father, but by the
eternal law OF the strongest!

augmented by his intermar1age with the
Ramolino family. was unequal to his tastes

About the birth of great men cycles Of
fiction grow. Friends and enemies alike
invent significant circumstances. The
traducers of Napoleon have said that he
was nlegitimate-that his father was the
French marshal Marboeuf. They also
say, on better grounds, that the marriage
of Letitia Ramolino to Carlo Bonaparte
was not solemnized until 1767-that the first
two children were, therefore. born out OF
wedlock. On the other hand, the idol
worshipers would fain have Napoleon born
