cratic platforms, aud is frequently seen

Congress was in session most Of the
time, and It's a1thority extended to
every source OF mischief But nothing
was done. The republican legislation
10 which the panic Is now being at
trlbuted was allowed 20 stand, and the
prevailing distress was prolonged.
AS n matter OF fact, however, the
country was never more prosperous
than at the time when the democratic
party wns restored 20 power. Repub-
lican legislation had put every form OF
business and industry upon aprohtable
basis, and had preserved tho public
credit, maintained the gold reserve,
and kept surplus in the treasury. IL
was the apprehension OF the reversal
Of these conditions by the substitution
of democratic for republican legisia-
ton that paralyzed trade, reduced
employ ment, and introduced general
confusion and uncertainty where there
had been general stability and happi-
ness. The trouble began as soon as
republican influences ceased to- control
the policy OF the government, andgrad
ually grew worse MS the fear increased
that the democrats would carry out
their threats against the doctrines and
processes under which the country had
gained unprecedented prosperity. This
fear was not allaycd until a repuo-
lican house was elected last fall. and a
guarantee thus secured that no law
could bc passed without the consent Of

Excellence With Protection.

The First Travels With Free Trade and
Excellence With Protection.
The workings OF the German tariff
show In an unmistalSnblc manner that
cheapness and free trade are as firm
allies as are protection and excellcncc.
Taking the case of free wool, an inves-
tigation OF any market In the United
States win show that the quality Of
the wooden goods now being offered
for sale throughout the country Is
vastly inferior TO the quality and finish
of the goods that were sold here few
years ago. The foreign manufacturers
of wooden goods have determined TO
secure as much of our trade as they
possibly can under the lower tariff now
In existence What they cannot get
by the differentiation fraud they win
get by fraud In the admixturc of the
component parts 0f the goods Arti-
cles that they offer TO sell us as being
made OF all wool are either part wool
and part shoddy, or all shoddy.
There is no disgrace In wearing gar
ments that are made OF shoddy, only
let them be sold as shoddy. Everybody
understands. of course, that they win
not wear as long as goods made of pure
wool and nobody expects that they
will--they cost less. But when wages
are lower than their former high level,
and when the number of earners is less
than Il used TO he, the question Of a few
dollars forms considerable factor in
the cost Of purchase Of wooden goods.
The shoddy article can be furnished
for the smaller outlay and the buyer
will often console himself with the fact
that ne may be able to afford better
material later ON when times have inn
proved. Thus II is that shoddy gar
ments arc mt present regulating values
for all our woolens. In order TO meet
this competition the American manu-
facturers have, in some instances, at
tempted TO supply the market with
goods made from shoddy in this coun
try, though the shoddy itself may all,
or part, have been imported. In this
way the demand for pure wool is cur
tailed and the sheep farmer suffers.

free traders were so anxious that we

rents from tis tenants. There
was a certain man with a large
family, who had occupied a
part of one of his houses in the

The man was thoroughly non

landlord bore the loss OF his
rent with considerable fortitude
until he thought it was some
one else's turn to help the fell

him one day and told him,
with all seriousness, that he
was intending to give the house

pair, and he had decided to ex
pend a little money on it and
make some important altera
lions, and, as it would be some
expense for the man to move,
he generously offered to order
Il team for him and settle the
bill himself.
The matter was arranged
with the utmost friendliness on
both sides, and the landlord
went his way, feeling quite a
little like the celebrated Phar-
isee. A week later be asked

had been empty for a month or
