Thousands of men III every walk of life
all over the world are playing a desperate
game with Death for an opponent. They
are playing with an opponent who has every
advantage, and the outcome of the game is
as certain as-Death The man i'll any walk
of life, who is too hard worked, too busy,
to take care of his health has only himself
to blame when the final break down comes.
1t is easy to keep health while one has it,
but uphill work to win it back when it is
lost A man ncglects a slight indigestion.
Then his appetite gets poor That's tritic
and he pays no attention to it. Then he
complains of headaches and it is hard to
work or think. His sleep becomes restless
and he only gets troubled spells of it. He
gets nervous and irritable. Everything goes
wrong both at home and at business. He
persists in paying no attention to his
health. Then some day he breaks down.
The doctor says nervous prostratlon or con-
sumption as the case may be. He has been
playing a game with death and has been
checkmated at the weakest point.

Who Pays the Tax?

The Republican claim that 'the for
eigner pays the tax" is amply proved
by the following letter, which will ap-
peal to the people of Nebraska and Iowa,
as it interests them particularly:
OMAHA. April 10.
The Albion Milling Company, Albion. Neb.:
MISUNDERSTANDING your inquiry OF the
7th inst. The explanation Of the recent marked
advance in the price Of burlap bags is in the
prospective changes in the tariff. Under the
Wilson bill they are on the free list, but the
Dingley bill provides for duty which would
amount to something over / cent per bag on
the GO inch eight ounce burlap The price made
you on your recent invoice is the lowest which
we can offer on the present market. Yours
truly, BEMIs OMAHA BAG COMPANY.
NJ. c. PETERS. Manager.
The consumers Of burlap bags who
live in this section of the country need
not imagine that the increased price Of
bags concerns them. The foreigner has
to pay it.
Congressman Champ" Clark, in his
speech on the Dingley tariff bill, said
1.-THE passage Of the bill will force every
merchant in the land to make tariff
for revenue only speech every time he
sells bill Of goods across the counters.
The above letter is only one Of the tariff
speeches referred to by the eloquent and
witty Missouri congressman
Herald.

Sugar Trust Profits Cinched.

The trusts have cinch on Dingley
bill profits. OF course they will make
many times more if the bill becomes
law in anything like its present shape.
but they are already engaged in taking
part of their profits,
Sugar has risen considerably in antic-
ipation of greatly increased duties,
and merchants all over the country are
laying in stores because still higher
prices are expected. The Sugar trust is
consequently busy and rolling up profits.
In April it imported 757. 799, 527 pounds
Of raw sugar, valued at $14, 747, 1879. An
extra profit of one-half cent per pound
on this amount-which is already real
lied or guaranteed-means nearly $4,-
900, 900 to the trust.
If the bill is two months longer in its
passage, the trust will surely pocket
$40, 100000 extra profits before the bill
becomes law. Who says protection is
not a good thing? And why shouldn't
Senator Aldrich push it along and in
turn get his street railway syndicates
pushed along by the Sugar trust? Isn't
this reciprocity? Wouldn't Aldrich be
an migrate if he should desert his friends
and hackers when he has an opportuni-
ty to help them?

The specific charge by a responsible

Elkins on Wares.

Wages must go down." says Senator
Eikins i'll q recent interview published
in the Cincinnati Enquirer. "Wage
earners," continued the senator, do
not wish to see it or believe 1t, but 1t
is So" And again he said, "Wages in
America stand against any revival Of
business.
He was discussing the coal trade. He
said, "We do not export coal to Europe
because we have wages against us, and
that is the whole kernel of the coal
trade"
Being asked whether black labor was
settled in the mines Of West Virginia,
he said:
Firmly. 1t is as effective as white
labor and dots not combine and con-
spire, and the negro spends all he
makes, while the Italians and Poles
send every cent out of the country"
The senator has just as decided ideas
on the tariff question. He is firmly con-
WINGED that protective duties, especially
those on coal. should 60 up. Tariff up,
wages down. That is what happened
under the Mckinley bill and is what
will happen and in fact is happening
under the Dingley bill. It is all done
in the interest of labor.

Revising the Sugar Schedule.

This cartoon is from the New York
Press, one Of the most partisan Of Re-
publican newspapers. which always ad-
vocates protection to any and every in
dustry. Like hundreds of other Repub
lican papers, its disgust at the action of
Aldrich in writing the sugar schedule
at the dictation of the trust is so great
that 1t is daily denouncing the sugar
schedule and the senate committees

custody. On the next day the man
was drinking as freely as before.
