PROTECTION WILL RESTORE CON
FIDENCE.

Right in the midst of the alleged hard
the calamity hunters would have the
people believe, we find our export trade
to be nearly % per cent. greater than in
any former year. Even the Philadel-
admits this. But, it is asked, if without
protection to American industries there
is an increase in exports what is the
need for protection? The San Francisco
Bulletin replies that there As no proof
that the exported goods were sold at a
profit; they may have been forced out on
clearance.
But this is perfectly clear, that the ex-
port under reciprocity would be ample
If we had protection that would enable
us to control our own market and give
American artisans fair wages and
steady employment. That they cannot
have SO long as they are thrown into
competition with the cheap labor of Eu-
rope. That which we buy abroad which
we might make at home, we ought to
make here; the conditions should be
such that these manufactures can be
produced at home for the home market.
But as it is this cannot be done. For in
stance, wool is admitted free of duty,
and as a consequence foreign wool
drives the home product out of the mar
ket.
But it is said that the consumer gets
the manufactures of wool that much
cheaper But If that were true, which
is not demonstrated, what becomes of
the American workers who cannot be-
come consumers because of low wages
and no employment?
They cannot indulge in woolens with
out the means of Indulgence. Moreover
what we want most is a civilization that
will meet the demands the American so
cial system makes upon it's worker citi-
zens. Better a higher state of living
and comfort and plenty among Ameri-
can artisans at even a higher cost for
manufactures, even if the concession be

and then we will be able to consider the

needs is restoration of confidence that
will put idle capital into Industrial ac-

wheels of industry, and this it will have

| The period of our greatest prosperity
and advancement was the period when
we maintained the higher tariff. Under
| the Walker tariff from 1916 to 1862

we ever had, and which had its nose
pointed towards free trade, the exports
| of the nation exceeded theimports in but

export trade is not necessarily promoted

power to fix prices for us.

CONTEMPORARY OPINION.
A PECULIAR STATUTE.

In the State of Indiana they have a
peculiar statute directed against per-
sons who endeavor to prevent others
from voting by hiring them to remain
away from the polls. Under this law
the person thus induced to stay away
from the voting place has a right of
action to recover penalty of $500
against the man who has hired him to
refrain from going thither. In the
presidential election of 1892 voter in
the city of Vincennes went to a polling
place there for the purpose of casting
his ballot, when he met a person who
paid him s. to leave without voting.
The voter left at the time, but later in
the day he appears to have voted.
Nevertheless, in a suit to recover the
penalty of $500 in Appellate Court of
Indiana, by a decision rendered only a
few weeks ago, holds that he was en-
titled TO maintain the action. The Of
fense denounced by the statute is de-
clared to be complete under such cir
cumstances, even though the voter sub
sequently goes back to the polling place
and actually deposits his ballot This
construction of the law was inevitable
unless the court was prepared to holC
that one who actually yielded to the
briber so far as to stay away from the
polls altogether was to be placed in Z
better position than one who repenteC
of his nefarious bargain and concluded
to vote after all.-New York Sun.

THE DEMON OF HURRY.

HE ROBS THE GREAT AMERICAN
PEOPLE OF FLESH, ENERGY AND
GOOD DIGESTION
The one thing the American people
never do is to rest.
Nearly everybody we meet seems to be
in a continual state of nervous excite
ment or possessed o. feverish energy
to finish what they are about and get on
to other work; that Is why so many peo-
pie lose their health, energy and ambi-
tion, become thin and dyspeptic or fall
victims to nervous exhaustion.
We live in a hurry, eat in a hurry, and
sleep in hurry, and it is not surprising
that we finally break down. It is for this
reason the most of us stand in constant
need Of something to build up the system
and enable us to stand the severe strains
TO which we are subjected.
As a means Of preventing the debiitat-
ing effects of worry and overwork, many
eminent physicians recommend the use OF
a pure stimulant at meal time. Pure malt
whiskey has been found to give the best
results, and experiments have proved that
the safest and best of all Whskies is
Duffy's pure malt. This is because il Is
no ordinary whiskey, but a pure medici-
nal stimulant which gives stmuatiVe
nourishment to the whole body. It's
health-giving effects are speedily shown

increased strength.

find how many friends of yours are also
friends of Duffy's pure malt whiskey

before, and which has not since been
accepted by the government Of any
other country"
1t may be remembered also that fol-
lowing upon Lord Salisbury's protest
against recognition of the Monroe doc
trine some American commentators on
the Venezuelan dispute we're most loud
In their protestations that President
Cleveland was totally wrong in appeal
ing to the Monroe doctrine as having
any force in such a connection. 1t is
unnecessary, and il would be unkind,
to refer by name to certain more or less
prominent Americans who took occas-
ion last Winter to pooh-pooh all refer
ences to the Monroe doctrine, and to
throw their own influence in favor of
Lord Salisbury's view of the case.
All references to the details of the
mistake made by those Americans, who
rallied so unanimously to the assist
ance of Lord Salisbury, may be omit
ted, therefore, 1t is only necessary to
refer in any way to the events of last
Winter to show what a complete vic
tory has been won by President Cleve-
land in securing a striking recognition
Of the validity of the Monroe doctrine
in modern international law. The whole
arbitration arrangement is in itself a
complete admission of the right of the
United States to interpose in such mat
ters as the Venezuelan boundary dis
pute.-Boston Advertiser.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.

In whatever light Lord Salisbury's
present attitude in the Venezuelan case
may be viewed, there is no question as
TO the important fact that England has
practically admitted the full force and
justice of the American policy, which
is generally known as the Monroe doc
trine. Yet it is not so very long
ago that the British premier protested
against any acceptance of the Monroe
doctrine. by insisting that "interna-
tional law is founded on the general
consent of nations, and no statesman
however eminent, and no nation, how
ever powerful, is competent to insert
into a code of International law a nove
