wisdom From mckinley.

Major Mckinley in his masterly in
PRODUCTION to the great work on the
tariff, PROTECTION AND PROSPERITY"
says
The world knows of the wonderful
progress we have made. The expert
ence of the United States in diversity
ing. industries and developing its home
market has contributed more or less to
the growing disregard for the maxins
of schoolmen and theorists and in
caeased the value of the unimpeachabl BILE
testimony of trade and experience.
The scope of Mr.. Curtiss' work practi-
cally covers the history of the worlds
trade and commerce. The author has
undoubtedly devoted years of patient
research to gathering and arranging
his material and presenting his argu-
ment. After a careful examination of
the results of this stppendous piece of
work the fair-minded American student
and reader will close the book with
the conclusion that in our own Ameri-
can policy we have nothing to take
back, nothing to apologize for. Under
similar conditions our experience has
been precisely the same as the expert
ence of other nations. In some ways
it has even been England's own expert
ence. A low tariff or no tariff has al
ways increased the importation of for
eign goods until our money ran out !;
multiplied our foreign obligations; pro-
duced balance of trade against the
country /; supplanted the domestic pro-
ducer and manufacturer impaired the
farmers home market without improv-
ing his market abroad undermined
domestic prosperity; decreased the in
dustries of the nation diminished the
value of nearly all our property and
investments and robbed labor of its
just rewards. The lower the tariff the
more widespread and aggravated have
been these condition which paralyze
our progress and industries. This is
the verdict of our history, and, as the
author of this valuable work demon
strates, with clearness that should
carry conviction, it has been the verdict
of history in the case of other nations,
if facts and figures may be relied upon
to point out such results.

"colN" HARVEY WANTS GOLD.

A Silver Advocate Uses o Pretext to
Hoard the Yellow Money.
By advocating silver Mr.. Harvey has
reaped a harvest in gold.
Yesterday morning W. H. Harvey.
commonly known as "Coin" Harvey,
because of his authorship of series of
alleged economic papers under that
name, left his Office at 362 Washington
boulevard and came down town. He
was accompanied by Miss Josie Hix, his
stenographer and confidential clerk The
two went to the Metropolitan National
bank at LaSalle and Monroe streets.
They went to the window of the paying
teller and Mr.. Harvey handed in mar
row, long slip of paper, partly written,
partly printed. It was q check. 1t was
Mr.. Harvey's check. 1t called for
$1,000.
II want it in gold" said Mr.. Harvey.
And SO. because he was good
fellow, and because he had more money,
and was nice and didn't demand all in
gol5, and because it seemed best all
around to do it, Cashier Hitchcock made
mark on the check, and the paying
teller counted out l25 gold pieces.
Each was little smaller than a silver
dollar, but good deal heavier. The
whole $4,000 made glittering yellow
column somewhat over nine inches
high.
The silver prophet swept that much
of the detested metal into the canvas
bag and walked out of the bank with
his stenographer.
He was destroying the power of gold
as other men have attempted to destroy
the power OF rum He had proved his
antipathy to it by absorbing sorle of it
by taking that much out of circulation.
Then he took it over to Dearborn
street and put it in the safety deposit
vault.
The place from which he took it and
the place to which he removed it are
precisely two blocks apart. But that
short walk Of Coin" Harvey with his
bag of gold meant more than Thousand
speeches.
The bank is good Mr.. Harvey had
no fear of its suspension. But he pre-.
ferred to have the money where he coulc
lay his hands on it at any time without
asking leave of any cashier, paying tell.

it in gold. Harvey claimed thai
he wanted the gold to use as an object

THERE have been more than thirty
candidates for the Presidency in the
last eight quadrennial campaigns, but
Bryan is the first of them all to call
himself second Abraham Lincoln. Is
it colossal egotism or is the man daffy ?

McKINLEY's majority must be so
large as to settle the fate of free silver

still, confident that Bryan is already
defeated. That defeat must be made
so crushing that the men who desire to
promote dishonesty and repudiation

TEMPERANCE BAR" STORY.

A seedy, red nosed individual
sauntered into what was formerly a
West side Temperance bar Satur-
day, and placing a dime on the
coulter said:
"Give me some cold tea"
Don't keep it any more, said
the white-aproned barkeeper.
Have you any Aop ale, Rice ex-
tract, or, mayhaps, you have some
phosphate or deodorized or creoso-
ted water
Nothing of the kind, replied
the tender hearted barkeeper.
"Then," said the seedy looking in
dividual, what do you keep on tap
in this blasted town to take the
cobwebs out of the throat?"
WHIsKEY!" sir, "whiskey.'
The woe-begone look faded at
once, from the owner of the dime,
and he exclaimed: "Why did you
not inform me of this before; here,
take the dime, and get a move on
the bottle, and | am going to sit
right over in the corner and take a
nap, and | have a few more dimes
left, and when you see the blossom
on my nose take on a sickly look,
call me up for another one.
