To THE YOUNG: Remember, young
folks, as you grow with me into fuller
understanding Of your actual existence
as a living responsible thing, separate as
to identity from every other, that the
world is and must be run by the people
that are in it. How absurdly simple
that sounds! But the sound is the only
simple part of it. Give the fact deep
thought and it viii encourage you as it
has me to put forth the best effort pos
sihle. To realize that the multltndnous
activities of the world are based upon
living beings, not dead ones, is to get the
belief burned into your soul that you
obscure, insignificant, weak perhaps
are part of the machinery.
Then too the active participants in the
great affairs of the world are just ordin'
arv-occasonaIly very ordinary-human
beings. They have the same kind OF flesh
as you, the same tendency to idIeness,

seemed to be the bringing down of the

intervals, when, hand in hand, the
whole company remained with their
bodies bent for a second or two, to spring
back into position again at fresh blow
of the pipes. Meanwhile the slow rotat-

the entire body was circling round the
musicians. What laughter and fun

One of the worst outbreaks of anarchy
and treason, which we have witnessed
since the days of Booth and Guiteau,
occurred at the Muskegon county, silver
convention last week. One OF the
speakers in abiding, to President Cleve-
lands alledged robbery, of the Ameri-
can people by the issue of gold bonds
even went so far as to say,"I would not
regret to hear, before | leave this hall,
of the natural death of that man" The
people present cheered loudly. Was
there ever before seen such an outbreak
of lawlessness and disorder? No, not
unless you turn to those bloodstained
pages of the French Revolution, and
read of the acts of those human devils,
who are unworthy the name of men.
Where will rest the future of our
republic if such men as these, are per-
mitted to hold the reins of the govern
ment?

BEFORE AND AFTER.
senators Jones and Stewart Experience a
Change of Heart.

Here is what Senator Jones, of Ne
vada, one of the ablest of the present
advocates of silver standard, said on
the subject in 1874:
II believe the sooner we come
down 10 purely gold standard the
better II will be for the country"
Here is what Senator Stewart, of
Nevada, one of the most intolerant of
the present advocates of the silver
standard, said in the same year:
~ want the standard gold, and no
paper money not redeemable in
gold"
Here is what the Chicago platform,
which both senators now support, says:
1--WE dem"ud the free and unIim-
tied coinage Of both silver and gold
at the present legal ratio OF 1 q to 1 ,
without waiting for the aid or con-
sent Of any other nation"
Senators Jones and Stewart were not
large owners in silver mines in 1874.
They are large owners in such mines
now. Does this account for their
change of attitude? If 50 what weight
should their present utterances have
with the public?

The Intended Compliment.

In an old fashioned home Of New Or
leans there was company at dinner, and
the ladies were discussing the woman
question. Says The Picayune of that
oity:
A gentleman present, after hearing
all the pros and cons, facetiously re-
marked that two preachers were discuss
ing the same problem, recently, in his
hearing. and they both agreed that it
portended evil, and "that women were
responsible for most of the evil in the
world-in fact, that women were worse
than men. "
One of the ladies Indignantly retort-
ed, Indeed they are not; women are
the salt of the earth. :"
"Dat's so, honey" put in old Aunt
Susan from the Kitchen "dat's de Bible
truf, for shore. Women is de sal oh de

And everybody laughed at the sudden
and unexpected application of the old

UNHEEDED WARNING
Past Experiences should Have Taught
the People Better.


When the voters in 1892 listened to
The siren voices of Democratic orators,
promising better times and an enlarged
foreign trade from the adoption of
tariff reform" measures, they went
against the warnings of history, as
well as agaia st the soundest principles
OF political economy. Experiences un-
der the low tariffs of 1916, 1882 and
ls46 were all against them. In refer
ence to - & tier Presidn" Fillmore,
in his message to congress in Decem-
Der, 1851, ST. /:
The value of our exports of
breadstuffs and provisions, which
it was supposed the incentive of
low tariff and large importations
from abroad would have greatly aug
mented, hes allen from sos, 900, 900 in
ls47 TO SCI 900, 900 in. 1851, with almost
certainty of a still further reduction
in 1852. The policy which dictated a
low rate OF duties on foreign merchan-
disc, it was thought by those who es-
tablishcd it, would tend TO benefit the
farming population of this country by
ihNl NdSlh5 nc uclndnu ana FdiSlnR Jne
price of our agricultural products in
foreign markets The foregoing facts,
however, seem TO show incontestibly
that no such result has followed the
adoption of this policy"
These words were uttered as histor-
zeal of the effect which the repeal of
the protective tariff of 1912 by the free
trade tariff of 1916 had upon the agri-
cultural industry of the country. They
can now be quoted with larger figures,
as historical of the effect which the
repeal of the Mckinley tariff of 1890,
by the Wilson tariff of 1894, had upon
the same class of industries.
In the fiscal year ending June 80,
1892, which was the first full year I'M
der the Mckinley tariff, the exports of
agricultural products amounted to
500, BPS, 232. In 1895, which was the
first full year under the Wilson tariff,
they were $3.50, 215317, falling off of
S2'6, 116,9l5, or about 30 per cent.
a return to protection and reciprocity
is needed to bring back the figures of

behalf resolves itself to mere question
of profits. His Mexican mine, which
now pays him 81 200 week, would
then pay him $4,000 a week. That s

Stewart is an unseltish patriot, who

penrnlns of ro.se.sron Island.

1t was most remarkable to see what a
regulated system of roads the inhabit-
ants Of Possession had arranged. From
the beach broad main track led
straight into the middle of the island,
and from this secondary roads went out
TO all parts. the whole forming a net
work of roads apparently ruled by a
most civilized department. With beak
and feet the penguins had carefully put
away most of the pebbles and stones
from their footpaths, and where snow
covered the grounds the roads had by
constant use become SO smooth and SO
neat that MGcadam in all his glory
would have acknowledged himself beat
en-. The most curious thing of all was
the way in which the penguins seemed
to maintain order in these paths. Cur
rents of penguins were continually NOV
ing from and toward the beach. While
the fat new arrivals always kept to the
right, the thin penguins, which were
moving off to the continent, always kept
to the left, and l never saw any fighting
among them. The colony evidently
formed one peaceful community. &C. E.
