FROM the New Nork Herald.

In the campaign Of 1892, and since then,
Republican journals and ''protectionist ora
tors have flooded the country with assertions
that the free trade tariff of Mr.. Cleveland
would make it impossible for labor TO good
earn wages. and these orators prOphesied ruin.
Now, however, workingmen can Judge for
themselves, as they surely will, But the
present aud fast multiplying increases in
wages indicate only part of the Immense
benefit labor will receive from the Wilson
tariff. The cost of living has been reduced
by the Wilson tariff, and all classes, especially
workingmen, can now buy more for a dollar
than they could ever before buy This bene-
fit of the new tariff seems to be as important
as the increase of wages.

We are certainly blessed with a bountiful
harvest, if what we hear is true. We were in
formed that ON Mr.. Dihel's farm, close 10

grain which yielded so well that Mr. Ii. could
only cut one-fourth the length of the swarth
the selfbinder takes. When they wanted to
haul home the grain they could not get into
the field without moving the shocks.
Is the world getting better or worse is a
question often discussed.
Mary A. Rhodes. Of Hinton, Va, who was
cured by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, is

often we hear of some on week day.

Ten Children in Less than 4 Years,

A family of 10 sturdy children, all under 81
years of age, is attracting a good deal of at
tention in Wauchula, Fla. The mother ofthe
children, Mrs. William Webb, first bore twins,
then triplets, and ON April last she gave
birth TO quintuples, four girls and one boy,
all of whom are said to be thriving remarkably
well. 1t is proposed to introduced a bill into
the Florida Legislature for the relief of the
parents of this large and little family, as they
are very poor. The local paper, which vouches
for this story, thinks Mrs. Webb'sis worlds

Mr.. BAYARD'S DENIAL
There is No Occasion for an Ulti
matum.
TcO Reckless o Use of That Word
Monroe Doctrine I'm
harmed.

The interview with Ambassador Bayard
telegraphed from London, in which he Is
quoted as denying that an ultimatum has
been communicated to England with rela-
ton to the Venezuelan affair, Is in no way
inconsistent with the understanding here
among those who have any Information on
the subject. The use of the term ulti-
matum has been reckless and without
meaning. There has been no occasion for
an p!tmatum.
There is nothing in the situation as yet
warranting such action. The fact is, as
has before been stated, and is implied in
the Bayard interview, that Mr.. Bayard has
been instructed to make very clear to
Great Britain what our position Is with re-
lation to foreign encroachment upon Amer
lean territory; that the Monroe doctrine is
to be maintained, and that the United
States would be glad to see. the boundary
dispute between Great Britain and Ven
ezuela speedily settled by arbitration.
The meaning of this was not to be mis-.
understood but it was not as specific and
direct as an ultimatum. 1t was not In the
nature of an imperative demand that some
thing be done within certain time in a
particular way A similar declaration II
made in merely perfunctory way would
mean very little. The importance of this
communication lies in the fact that it is un-
derstood to mean all that Is said, and q lit
tie more.

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION CITY.
Senator ThurstOn Discusses the Prob
abilities.

abilities.
SAN FRANCISCO, October 16.-'The To-
cation of the next republican national con-
vention lies between three cities-San Fran
cisco, Pittsburg and Chicago" said Nation
al Committeeman John M. Thurston of Ne
braska. Mr.. Thurston is at present on the
coast in the Interest of the Union Pacific
railroad, r. lative to the receivership on two
appeals from orders made from the state of
Oregon. Mr.. Thurston was inclined to be
communicative on matters pertaining to
politics, and stated that Joseph Manley,
the national committeeman of Maine, ex-
pressed the wish to him that San Fran
cisco might be the next convention place of
the republican party, and that many of the
other members of the party from the east
ern states had expressed the same desire.
"As for myself" continued the Senator,
Il have not made up my mind. 1t is sure
to go to either Chicago, Pittsburg San
Francisco, and any one of the three places
named will suit me-
What do 1 think of the probable nomi-
nee of the party? Well. my state is rather
inclined toward Mckinley, but l hear Alli-
sen or Reed of Maine frequently referred
to as available and safe for the party. Har-
rson, did you say? Never. He is entirely
out of the question. 1 believe there was an
attempt to work him in the fight, but it has
been given up. Don't you recall That old
line, Thou dost protest teo much That
applies to Harrison. He will never do"
will the republican party give the west
free coil age plank?"
Yes, 1 think so; one similar to the plank
of the last campaign, but do not think the
republicans, or the democrats either. Will
ever declare for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver without regard to any
other country. think the money question
will have to be settled in such way that
there will never be any great disturbance
in money values"
