PROTECTION A BLESSING

Protection has effectdally done its
work in. this country. It has called
into existence industries which, with
out. its. stimulus, - would never have
taken root on our soil, and the result
has, been g distinct gain to, the United
States and to mankind: generally, if
there is any foundation for the claim
that the. cheapening> of products is a
blessing. Had it not been for the vast
steel plants of the. United States and
Germany, both the outcome of protec-
tive laws, the world would have still
been paying tribute to the. English for
the privilege of being supplied with
steel and nufactures of steel. And
what is true of the steel industry is
also true in large degree of all the
great staple industries.-Sdn Francisco

| Mills House MOI is. constructed on
the plan Of giving at very cheap rates
accommodations equal to those which
cost in the upper part Of the city 81 a
day. The building3is more beautiful ar
chitecturally than almost any Of the
hotels for. the rich. It is built Of Indiana
limestone and white brick and is ten
stories high. There is a magnificent
staircase Of Italian marble. A body of
brick, stone. glass and marble, immacu-
late, clean and shining, is built upon q
skeleton of steel. Brilliant electric lights
illuminate the sceneat night A double
courtyard is in the center, full Of light,
air and beautiful sunshine. 1t isadorned
with palms ard other plants. A library
and writing room are free. So are the
so rain baths with hot and cold water
on tap and the 20 footbaths, likewise
the laundry with dozen washtubs,
where the economical or impecunious
clean man may renovate his own linen
and be as pure in his belongings as the
millionaire Excellent meals will be
furnished at 10 cents up.
The building accommodates 1864
persons. It is heated by steam through
out. The beds have the best quality of
mattresses and coverings. Queen Eliza
beth herself was not housed so luxuri-
ously as the man will be who, can pay
20 cents per night in Mills House.

Lord Salisbury had the name. of; be-
ing firm to hepoint of stubbornness.
Yet Salisbury has pursued a vacillating
policy throughout the whole of his pres
emit term as premier For instance, he
declared first that Great Britain would
never consent to arbitrate the Venezue-
Ian boundary as requested by the Unit
ed States. Then he changed his mind
and consented. Again, he took a position
in regard to Greece, from which he re-
coded at command Of the continental
powers Once more, he refused to arbi-
trate the seal question with the United
States. Again, he turned about and
promised to do so. But lie did not stay
in that mind. Now, under pressure
from Canada, he sees. the matter in a
different light and. declares England
will hold conference with the United
States on tie seal question, but not in
connection with Japan and Russia, al
| though they are as much interested in
the seal settlement as England herself:
Canadians say they fear that in a con-
ference of all these nations they will be
outyoted.. This is flat confession that
Canada knows she is claiming more
than her just rights in the sealing wa,
tiers. ~
