TIE POLICY OF SECTION TWEEN
TY-TWO.

The all important fact about the
NOW famous section % of the tariff bill
is that it is there; how it got there,
whether openly or surreptftiousiy, is
realty matter of secondary import
ance.
The section provides substantially for
a discriminating duty of 10 per cent
upon foreign goods brought into this
country in foreign vessels or by way of
Canada, except where expressly ex-
empted nv treaty or convention

saying it is directly in line with the
Republican policy Of protection. That
can scarcely be disputed. It's purpose
is, ostensibly, to encourage American
shipping by inducing importers to
bring in their goods in American
bottoms. A merchant marine is a good
thing and the way to create one is 80
permit Americans to purchase foreign
built vessels and give them American
registry rights: that would soon
create merchant marine. far more
quickly than the imposition of any
discriminating duty will. Like the
whole policy of protection, this dis
eliminating duty is designed to favor
one class of citizens at the expense of
the other. It gives the owners of
vessels having American registry a
chance to impose a higher freight rate
on goods than other vessels can. and
this increase comes out of the Ameri-
can importer 1t will not cause a

dock yards: but it is in line with the
general policy of protection; this must
be plain to all who regard the matter

M. II. De Long Of Schuyiervflle. n.
Y, writes 10 the New York Press OF
the hating Of the president at the C.
A r. erscampment. as follows: THE
incident at Buffalo of hating the
president was no doubt the result Of
poor Judgment and a misguided am
bition to exercise little authority. In
the army of 1861 and 1865 it was con
sidered the height of Importance for a
private to DE able TO halt 8 general
officer, and I presume the guard at
Buffalo thought he was performing a
ineritorious act when he stopped the
president. The fault lies still higher
in G. A. r. circles. The commander
of the encampment should have dele
gated an aid either to escort the pregi-
dent or to receive him at the gate. And
the guard should not be made the
scgpegoat to bear the odium. The Off
cer. Of the guard knows the orders and
instructions that he gave the sentinel.
Army regulations strictly enjein sen
tinels to obey orders, and although I
do not know VINO the sentinel was, I
will venture to believe that he only
exercised the scldieriy instinct in the
performance Of his duty. The real
trocble no doubt was higher up" This
is precisely the position The Herald
took on the matter; and ii is the right
one.

People who buy books and read them
in bed after the tolls of the day are

spondent of the London Chronicle. He
wants to know why books cannot be

trying to cut and read a book in bed
means a series of gyrations till the bed

Next, he wants to know why books in

are not numbered on the back: and
why reprints in many volumes cannot
state plainly, on the title page Of vol.

be completed. Lastly. he wants TO know
