The Lincoln and Reed Platforms

The Reed platform favors that Repub-
lican policy of protection taught by MI.
Lincoln, illustrated BY the signal pros
perity of the country for thirty years, and
rounded out by the reciprocity of Mr..
Blaine This was the tariff plank of
the platform on which Lincoln was nom-
mated in 1860:
That while providing revenue for the sup
port of the general government by duties on
imports, sound policy requires such an adj
Justment OF these imports as to encourage
the development OF the industrial interests
OF the whole country; and to command that
policy Of national exchanges which secures
to the WOrklngmen liberal wages, to agricul-
ture remuneratlVe prices, to mechanics and
manufactures an adequate reward for their
skill, labor and enterprise, and to the nation
commercial prosperity and independence.
Lincoln stood for a moderate tariff, so
adjusted as to discriminate in the favor
and encourage the development of the
and not any particular class. Extreme
protection he doubtless would have OBJ
posed as unwise. AS to ''the reciprocity
Of Blaine, it will be remembered that the
insertion of that into the bill of 1890 was
secured with considerable difficulty II
cost Nh. Blaine hat but it was worth a
good many hats. The gold standard and
q reasonable protective tariff combined
with reciprocity-th is the platform on
which Mr.. Reed stands. Portland Ad-

Literary News and Notes.

SIS the Power of Christianity Waning?
No'' is the title of a paper in the May
Forum by Dr.. H. K. Carroll, who had
charge of the religious census.
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge has written
stirring article for the May Forum en-
titled ''Our Duty to Cuba, painting in
dark colors the story of Spanish tyranny
in Cuba and advocating the recognition
of Cuban belligerency. In the same num-
Der of The Forum, Professor John Bias
sett Moore, professor Of international law
and diplomacy, Columbia University,
New York, contends that the Cuban in
surgents are not entitled to bellgerent
rights.
A Lincoln paper in McClure's Magazine
for May tells the story of Lincoln's nomi-
nation and election to Congress, a story
very curious and characteristic in it's Incl
dents; describes, from new material, Lin
coins life in Washington, social and po-
litical, during his term in Congress; and
tells of an important campaigning tour
which he made through New England in
1S4S. A lately discovered report of a
speech delivered in the course If this tour
is given, and there are number of i'm
portant letters Of Linco MS that have
never been published before. The illus
trations are numerous and interesting.
In The Youths Companion for April
23d Andrew Carnegie tells how he served
his apprenticeship as a business man, in
an article which will prove stimulating to
every boy and stirring to every friend Of
boys. Mr., Carnegie started in life. rs 50
many other successful men have done,
without penny; and has amassed a great
fortune, which has been wisely ana gen
erously drawn upon for scores of public
purposes, designed to benefit his fellow
men. In this article he has told the story
Of his early struggles and successes in
delightful manner, which will make his
paper an inspiration to every boy who
reads it. The Companion for April 30th
will contain an article on Arbor Day by
Hon. j. Sterling Morton, Secretary OF
Agriculture who first conceived the idea
of setting apart one day in the spring as
time of general tree planting. Each issue
of The Companion contains one or more
articles of exceptional value written by
the ablest and best known men and women
of the age.

paJama suit, getting up has no terrorS Ii
the night has been restless, there have
been opportunities for change of position,
or for half an hours perusal of some
familiar book, and fits of sleeplessness
have lost all their terrors. 1t requires
none of the resolution needed to take the
plunge out of warm bed into cold at
mosphere. With these arrangements,
sleeping has no discomforts and rising no
terrors.
But now comes the bath. In the ordi-
nary households the bath has it's own ter
rors. The bathroom is usually uncom-
Portable, not warmed, or i'll warmed, and
the bath itself is a disagreeable appara-
tus, either in metal or in marble. The
cold food is often made more uncomfor-
table by kamptulicon or tiled covering,
either of which is the height of discomfort
in the winter in this climate. Why should
the bathroom not be place of luxury
and OF artistic decoration? One should be
able to step down into the bath and not
have to climb up into it. 1t should have
flowers and pictures and palms and shrubs,
singing birds and books. 1t should be as
warm as any apartment in the house, and
have a divan or couch, with soft rugs, and
a man should be able to smoke his cigar
cite there after taking his bath, with ease
and comfort. l have perhaps said enough
to explain why, in my view, at the end Of
1000 years, it may be truly said that we
have neither learned how to go to bed nor
how to get up with health, grace and
pleasure. If these desiderata are mpor-
tant for the healthy and the young, they
are certainly not less so for those in ad-
vanced years and of delicate health, but
how rarely they are found in the ordinary
household.

vote went almost solidly for the Citizens

SPAIN NOT HUNTING TROUBLE.
With the Employment or Little
Diplomacy 1t Can Be Avoided.

Madrid, April 14.-With the en-
ployment of a very little diplomacy
by the United States the impending
trouble with Spain can be avoided,
Your correspondent is able to state
this almost authoritatively after
conversations with the leaders of
the two important political parties
inSpain If the United States'will ap-
proach the Spanish government in a
friendly spirit and ask exactly what
condition OF autonomy the Spanish
government will grant to Cuba be-
fore the former government re-
cognizes the insurgents on the
island as belhgerents, the Spanish
will meet such overtures half way.
Senior Sagasta, the Liberal leader
and former prime minister, said
that the Spanish government was
certainly not trying to force on a
war with the United States. 'lt
has taken" he said, 'the utmost
precaution to protect tie lives and
property of American citizens in
Spain since the trouble began. All
anti-American demonstrations have
been promptly stopped, and no
American up to the present time
has suffered the least harm.
