TARIFF FOR REVENUE.

In fine, we reafiirm the historic
Democratic doctrine for revenue only.
We demand that henceforth modern
and liberal policies toward American
shipping shall take the place of our
imitation of the restricted statutes of
the eighteen century, which were
abandoned by every maritime power
but the United States, and which, to
the nations humiliation, have driven
American capital and enterprise to
the use of alien flags and alien crews,
have made the stars and stripes an al
most unknown emblem in foreign
countries, and have virtually extin
guished the race of American seamen.
We oppose the pretense that dis
eliminating duties will promote ship

vitation to commercial warfare upon

light of our great commercial treaties,
offering no gain whatever to Ameri
can shipping, while greatly increasing

\ pretty story of the young empress
Of Russia is going the round. Before
leaving Tzarsko-Selo her imperial maj
esty gave a reception at the palace to
some ladies who had taken part in a
charitable bazaar in which she was so
much interested. One of the ladies. it
seems, was mother to a baby exactly
the same age as the empress lovely liz
tie daughter. When it came her turn
to speak to the empress, although
hitherto stranger, this motherly
young woman inquired suddenly, with
irrepressible interest: "How's your
baby?" The empress smiled, and was,
1t is said, delighted at the uaivete. She
told the woman all about the royal tot.
Apropos of the Russian baby, her little
highness when dressed for an outing Is
held up at the window every morning
