PennsylvanIan on Protection.

Hon. John Dalzell, M. c., Of Penn
sylvania, recently said: What this
country wants is more revenues
through the custom houses, more men
in the mines, more blazing furnaces,
more factories, more mills, the music
of more spindles, more and cheaper
transportation facilities, wider field
for labor, an enlarged home market,
more consumption to stimulate produc-
ton, to increase wages and to decrease
the hours, of labor" These necessary
and much desired conditions can only
be brought about by return to the
policy of Protection to American In
dustries, such as we enjoyed in 1891 and
1892, when our industries were pro-
tected and our treasury receipts were
adequate to meet the requirements of
the government.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1896-06-05

never was q time In the history OF the
United States when there was greater
demand for Republican statesmanship
than there Is now. Whether this Con-
gress will be able to achieve anything
do not know, but do know that the
House of Representatives. with its great
Republican majority, has already made
an impression upon the business of the
country" This is true. Whatever the
present Congress shall be able to do.
the people are confident that the Free
Trade party in this country has reached
the end Of it's power to work destruc
lion to American industries. The Cor
man Tariff act may remain for the
present inviting ruinous competition to
American industries, but its doom is
sealed; the hours of its life of destruc-
tive work are becoming less and less.

Not for Carriage Wheels.

1t is not generally understood as it
should be. perhaps, that bicycle wheels
seldom or never are subjected to lateral
strains. They need to resist only those
strains which pass through their own
plane and in this plane only have they
any strength worth speaking of. This
is worth remembering when the use Of
wheels of this type is being considered
for three or four wheeled vehicles, where
the conditions are essentially different
and where, in turning corners rapidly,
or in going over ground that causes the
vehicle to be inclined sideways, very
considerable lateral strain may be
brought upon the wheels-a strain
which the ordinary bicycle wheel is,
very properly, entirely untitled for.
This is to be considered also in eonnec-
ton with devices for attaching two BIZ
cycles side by side to make a duplex or
four-wheeled machine of them. Neither
the frame, the bearings, nor the wheels
of a properly constructed bicycle are
adapted to such use without injury.

effect Of the deadly blight" Of Demo-
cracy upon American farms.
Farmers are we'll aware Of the dis
aster that has befallen them since 1892,
and the cause of 1t. They have looked
back with regret to the era Of our
greatest prosperity under the Protec-
tive tariff that bears the name Of Hon.
william Mckinley. They have felt the
effects of lower tariff-a Democratic
tariff, with its touch" Of free-trade up
On our sheep and wool Industries. They
know that they need a restoration OF
the Mckinley tariff rates upon their
own products, and upon all other prod
acts and manufactures Of the United
States. Nothing less than this will
restore to the farmer the conditions of
1890 to 1892. They demand; they in
sist upon; and they will vote for, next
November, a restoration Of a tariff
policy that will not give less Protec-
ton to American farmers than the Nc
Kinley tariff did, because they want,
and are in need Of, return to the
Mckinley protection period and Its
prosperity. They demand similar
American craftsmanship. Nothing less
will satisfy them.

there were not enough to go round.

surprise those Michiganders were over
the fence and at work on us with their
sabers and siX-shooters. We concluded
that we had made a mistake-that we
didn't want any yankees after all.
