Judging from the earnestness display
ed by the promoters OF Merchants Day
in Wheeling, and the liberal response OF
the merchants and others in the raising
OF funds for expenses, the project is pref
~ sure to be notable success and will be
OF great benefit to the business interests
OF the city. This much assured, there
only remains to arrange the programme.
10 fix date and to ascertain the number
of guests likely to accept the invitations
to be sent out.
The discussion at Wednesday nights
meeting OF business men developed some
difference Of opinion regarding a date for
the entertainment. The suggestion was
made by some that Fair week be fixed as
the time for Merchants Day, and others
opposed the proposition M impractical
bic. While the city. and its business
men especially. owe much to the enter

Governor Plngree. OF Michigan. who is
something of freak. free silvsrlte and
a free trader but who poses as Repub4
llcan for the sake OF office, Ia denounelng
the new tariff bill and his words are be-
Ing 1ubllantly quoted by the Popocratlc
press as follows;
Burrows and Mark Hanna will hear from
the people. The Idea OF lot OF million
aire senators passing law to tax the un-
property, That isn't Repuhllcanlsm and
Il ISN'T Christianity The worst crack
Christianity ever received was when Presi-
dent Mckinley signed that tarin bill, with
It's tax on sugar and leather, When a
millionaire senator sits down to a meal,
says grace and puts sugar In his coffee,
| wonder how he thinks the poor man Is
going 10 get money to pay for his sugar
This Is similar demagogic rot to that
which is being INDUCED in by the Popo-
cratic press, and is an ebullition of the
silly rancor Characteristic OF the opposI-
ton TO every Republican tarift bill that
has been passed, We heard even more
OF It after the passage OF the Mckinley
bill, which the people are sorry they ever
voted to repeal.
Pingree talks of the Dingley law,
which allows a mere quarter OF a cent
pound protection on sugar, as II that
quarter OF cent pound were going to
prevent the poor man from using sugar
in his coffee. and berates Mark Hanna
for placing this enormous tax" on
sugar. as though 1t were not a fact that
the sugar schedule adopted was the
house rate and not the senate rate want
ed by the sugar trust. and was fought
for by leader OF the PopocratIc cause,
Pingree. like all the other croakers
against a protective tariff. doesn't study
the tariff question. and simply joins In
the general croak because 1t Is the only
thing left for him to do, There is only
one way to bring articles OF general con-
sumption into the reasonable reach OF
the poor man. and that is TO encourage
the home production Of them by 2rotec-
tive laws. Such laws naturally induce
home competition and insure lower
prices. As to sugar, the retail price
now. and the poor man buys at retail, is
about the same that It was year and a
half ago under the Democratic tarlff, and
during the prevalence of the Democratic
tariff the price Huctuated according TO
conditions OF the market, Just as 1t does
now, as Il always has done, and as 1t al
ways will do Regrettable as it
is that trust largely controls
the price OF the staple, 1t must be admit
ted that the price of sugar has not al
ways been high. but has otteRer reached
very low figure A glance over the
Wheeling wholesale market reports for
the past several weeks shows that'the
range OF prices for sugar is about the
same now as before the passage Of the
tariff bill. the advance, where advance
has occurred, being only very small
fraction OF cent per pound.

burglar and in momentary risk Of fall
Ing lnlo the hands OF an unsentlmental
ohicer OF the law. "He who hesitates Is
lost" He wayered for awhile between
the sentimental dictates Of his suseepti-
BILE heart and his more practical duty 10
his calling, and he was lost. STOPPING
over the fair sleeper he stole hearty
kiss, and, not satisfied with one, he took
another.
Then the burglar realized his mistake
in not conhning his steaiings to the theft
OF inanlmate things, The beauty awoke
with scream that aroused all the other
sleepers of the house. The sentimental
burglar tried to escape through a win
dow. but 1t was too late, The now wide
awake beauty saw him so well in the
moonlight that her description led TO his
arrest.
In the future, as he sits in his prison
cell, the sentimental burglar will have
time to ruminate on the foolIshness of his
unprofessIonal conduct. No self respect-
ing burglar would have allowed the sight
OF pretty face to throw him off his
guard In that manner
