II General Weaver had been frank
with the crowd of fishermen who stood
and capped IN cpen-mouthed wonder last
night al his remarkable revelation Of the
wrongs and injuries they have sustained
since coming TO America at the hands
OF the wicked men the people have from
time TO time, during the past twenty-five
or nfty years, appointed to run this gov.
eminent. instead ~ the stale Jokes and
coarse abuse he uttered against Grover
Cleveland and John sherman, he would
have told his hearers that the low price
OF fish and other evils which they are
now enduring, in common with all classes
and grades OF their fellow citizens, are
due more to the way he and other
enemies OF social order have abused
the tolerent laws relating to human
liberty and free speech, which Old Sher-
man and his despised ik helped 70
make. than any coinage or tariff act ever
passed by any congress. II Weaver lived
In any other country, or under any other
system OF laws than the one which he
tries so hard to bring into disrepute,
he would have been Jailed for repeating
his old stereotyPed harangue OF last night
many years ago, He knows better than
to believe the things he says, and the
sooner it is made a penitentiary onense
for such men to run about the country.

EASTER MORN.

The glad day OF the year is here Once
again the proclamation echoes through
cut the earth. Christ Is risen" and
hack comes the answer, and hath APP
peared into Simon" Bright flowers, and
emblems OF the S~aviOur's smiles, and
joyous music celebrate the one chief
event of sacred history, the resurrection
OF Him who shall draw all men unto
Him. New life Is given unto the spiritual
world; the lame. the blind and the halt
may walk. II he will, in the light OF the
new day. The dark shadows of the tomb
have been swept away by the brightness
Of Easter morn and the JOY OF all true
disciples is unalloyed by doubt Redemp-
tioa is accomplished and salvation assur-
ed. Il go to prepare a place for you"
and that We not become discouraged. He
says. Peace I leave with you. my peace
i give unto you. Let not your heart be
troubled. neither let it be afraid"

No committee that ever started out to
raise a subscription for some popular
movement ever complained on the first
day, yet the result OF yesterdays WORK
by the committee was not only most
satisfactory. but is really remarkable.
That body OF hard workers deserves the
utmost praise as well as the thanks Of
all. Everybody is coming into the pro-
cession In some shape or other, and the
success OF the movement is foregone.

GODS ALI.

Am | my brothers keeper?-Gen. iv.9.
Upon every man thai lives is imposed
a double responsibility-ne is definitely
and sharply responsible for himeslf, and
10 a certain extent for every one who
comes within the sphere Of his influence.
The man who wants everything Is apt
to end by being in want OF everything
while he who gives freely is apt to grow
richer in heart, though he grows poorer
in purse.
IL Is curious TO note our dependence
on each other and how impossible 1t IS
TO be sufficient INTO ourselves. The
world may get on very well without us,
but not for a day can we get on without
the world. II furnishes US with pretty
nearly all the materials out Of which
we build character and SUCCESS. II do
mates "A thousand physical comforts n
conveniences which We could not fashion
for ourselves. It surrounds US with GER
tain moral Influences which are the
growth of ages, and presents for our
Imitation the careers OF its noblcst heroes
in every department OF life. You are
but one thread in the great fabric, and
would be counted as nothing out for the
other threads which give you your i'm
portance.
Out Of these facts certain duties grow,
~@N
and these duties. properly set in order,
make up what we call practical religion.
II is a system Of religion that can rouse
our deepest enthusiasm, for it is based
on the fatherhood Of God n the
brotherhood OF man. 1t goes oack TO
the time when shepherds fed their fiocks
on the everlasting hills and 1t goes for
ward as far as the millennium. Men
may speculate as they please about the
nature Of duty and the various methods
by which salvation can be attained, but
their creeds may all be whistled down
the wind like so much thistledo'yn, for
over and above all creeds and all specula-
ton, even as a giant bendeth over a
child. these two facts tower in rplendor
and majesty-namely, that religion con-
sists in love toward God, a love that flies
Upward to the stars. and love toward
man. a love that makes each sufferer our
neighbor, or, better still, our brother

Alexander Hamilton. whose creative
mind brought the financial system OF
this country out OF choas, would rise up
from bis grave to dsnouAce the practice
Of this decadent administration. He
laid down as the essential and funda-
mental prescription for he preservation
Of our public credit that the creation
Of the debt should always be accom-
panied with the means OF extingulsh-
ment' Adherence to this principle has
been the well-selected policy of the ma
ton for a hundred years Of uneGampled
progress, but it has remained for the ad-
mszistraion OF Grover Cleveland TO fall
away from It In a time Of undisturbed
peace with no palliation except a per-
version Of the truth and its unmatched
capacity for laundering.
During the Hayes administration the
Democratic majority in the mouse Of rep
resentatives refused to pass the ordinary
and necessary appropriation bills, except
with the attachment OF irrelevant politi-
cal riders, affecting the federal election
laws. This and unpatriotic
course called forth the memorable de-
nunciation Of General Garfield To CO.
cree the defeat Of Abraham Lincoln at
the polls, the Democratic party threat
ened TO shoot the government TO death;
today, after eighteen years Of defeat, II
declares that it will starve the govern
ment to death If it cannot coercc an In
Sevendent branch Of his government
against its will. Shooting and starving
having failed as Democratic policies, the
latest resort is nov TO the policy OF
bleeding. The national credit has been
Slapped for two years past by the policy
of suffering expenses to exceed the in
come. Running into debt is the only
memorable achievement OF the Cleveland
administration.
At the close Of the first year and a
half Of operation. the Wilson-Gorman
tariff imposition has fallen seventy-aye
million dollars short Of meeting the cur
rant expenses OF the government. II has
cut down the receipts, both in customs
and internal revenue II has reduced
the quantity Of goods brought into this
country free OF duty. 1t has largely
increased the -importations Of goods made
in competition with American labor.
Roth in what it has lone and left I'M
done, 1t is condemned by The exhibit Of
its operation and the voice Of the Amori-
can people.
Even the specious pretense that 1t
would open the doors Of foreign coun-
tries TO our own explorations has been
stamped false by the actual record Of
facts. The exports Of our agricultural
products during the first full calendar
year Of this pretentious Measure were in
value S5l5, 1885. while under the abomi-
mated Mckinley tariff our agricultural
exports averaged ;lOO,9N,oG a year
greater.
Yet IN the face of this exhibit and
patent deficit the administration has
gone on supinely borrowing money and
denying, in the face OF the derision OF
all competent ananciers, at home and
abroad. that 1t needed money except TO
sedeem national obligations in gold.
For monumental laundering in running
INTO debt and ~wriggling about under the
burden Of debt, this administration IS the
mock OF the world.

II is clear that the tariff cannot be re-
moved from politics while politics re-
main a concern Of the people. The ex-
perience Of the past two years has plain
Iy demonstrated the danger Of tampering
with the Republican principle of protec-
tou. 1t has brought home 20 every
voter the fact that protection protects,
and that the American w~orkingman and
the American home are the chief bene-
hciarics of genuine protection, as they
chiefly suffer when protection is unduly
lowered or withdrawn. It is true that

According TO a Washington exchange

HE IS RISEN.

He is risen. From the belfries
Sweetest harbingers Of peace
Are proclaiming to the nations
That mankind has his release.
He is risen!' saith the angel,
Standing near the vacant tomb,
Where a superhuman halo
Has absorbed the solemn gloom.
He is risen! and the flowers
Send their fragrance from The earth
To the throne where He is reigning-
Where Of pain there's utter dearth.
He is risen. and creation,
With its thousand varied creeds,
Bows as one vast congregation,
Like a field OF bending reeds.
