We look forward TO a time, ana
that not many years in the future, when
the people, restored to political sanity
by stern necessity, wiz place the real
democratic party in power, and thus,
under the operations of a tariff which

REFORMING THE TARIFF.
A System That VIII Not Benefit the
Farmers.

| n system 1nat VIII NOR Beneflf the
| Farmers.
It is now practically assured that the
| republican members of the present con-
gress have laid out the ground for the
passage of a tariff bill nearly identical
with the law of 1890, should special
session of the new congress be called
soon after the Inauguration of Mr.. Nc
Kinley.
The new bill will restore rates of
duty very generally as they were sched-
uled in the Mckinley bill, in some in
stances increasing them, but destroy
ing every distinctive feature of the
present law. It is announced that on
lumber, wool and all agricultural prod
ucts there will be higher rates imposed
than the government has yet demanded
from such imports. So positively has
this been asserted that the state grange
of Pennsylvania at its recent meeting
expressed itself very decidedly upon the
subject of the tariff as applied to farm
products. This body was composed en-
tirely of the farmers in possibly one of
the strongest protective states in the
union, and it could not be called politi-
cal body in any sense.
Among the resoIurlons adopted was
the following on the proposed increased
rates of duties on farm products: 1--WE
cannot deceive ourselves with the idea
that any measure of protection to our
industries offered by tariff on imports
can avail in the slightest degree to bene-
fit the grower of those crops of which
he produces a surplus for export and
whose prices are necessarily made in
the worlds market, where they must
continue to be disposed Of"
1t will be remembered that it was the
farmers more than any other class in
this country that led the revolt against
what became known as ''McKinleyism"
that resulted in the defeat of Mr.. Harri-
son in 1892 and the election of Mr.. Cleve-
land, and in that campaign the farm
ers of the west made common cause
with those at the east against the ex-
ozbitant tariff of 1890. They had learned
that a tariff on those things of which
the farmers had a surplus did not help
them, while the increased duties on
what they had to buy raised not only
the cost of living but the expenses of
carrying on their business.
The much abused tariff we now have
is higher than the Morrill, tariff of 1861,
which was higher than any we had had
before that year and was passed as a
war measure to bring money into the
treasury. The feeling one has in read |
ing the views of congressman on the |
new tariff is that it contains too much |
politics and too little business sense |

ARBITRATION MAY WIN.

st PITTsBURG, July 14.-There is a bare

conference may yet lead to the terlnina-

the '.true uniformity" agreement pro-
posed by President Dearmitt of the New
York and Cleveland Gas company last
year, but which failo Scr the re1,soil
that 81 per cent of the operators in this
district required by Dearmitt could not
be secured. Two sessions of the arbi-

representatives from the states Of Penn

and Illinois being present. At the
AFTERNOON session President Dearmitt
said:
eff the operators of the Pittsburg dis
trict will abolish their company stores,
use a uniform screen, give honest
weight, 1000 pounds of coal for ton,
and pay cash every two weeks, / will
leave it to any committee to settle the.

setts Woman's Suffrage Association.
held in Boston, Mrs. Charlotte Perkins
Stetson, in treating "The economic
basis of the woman question:" held it
to be best for both men and women to
be economically independent in the
marriage relation.
Just how this can be, Mrs. Stetson
did not explain, while regarding the
situation solely from the standpoint Of
the highest and best development"
AS the Boston Globe puts it, mat
rimonial existence contemplates so
much beyond the mere relation of en-
ployer and housekeeper that it is made
subject of special contract, in which,
theoretically at least, there is a lust
division of the working capital involved
in the domestic concern. The matter
of the economic equities involved in
the matrimonial contract has always
been in dispute. 1t is a sort of COM
munal arrangement, settled by a con-
tract which nobody is obliged to ac-
cept, and SO far as the division of Gin
dependence" is concerned, many regard
it as essentially as broad as it is long
But the original and somewhat anus
ing idea of Mrs. Stetson in this matter
is that ''the strain of providing for a
wife and family is really too much to
expect of the modern husband It's too
much of a strain on him, and so in
future he is simply to contribute only
his share for the support of home and
family"
Such tender consideration for the
head of the house" is as rare as it is
touching. 1t will doubtless reach a
sympathetic chord in many a manly
breast. But unfortunately it involves
virtual denial on the part of Mrs.
Stetson that marriage is an equal part
nership before both parties have settled
upon which share of work and rewards
belongs to each.
Discussions of this character are cal

ALLEE SAME PRICE.
Troubles of Chinese Tailor With Big
and Little Lieutenats of the Navy.

On board one of her majestys large
corvettes employed on the China sta
ton in 1867, the first lieutenant was
then one of Gf not quite) the heaviest
and StouteSt officers in the navy, while,
on the contrary, the navigation lieu
tenant was one of the smallest. 1t
was the custom on the arrival of the
man-o'war at Hong Kong, or any
other port, for the principal tailor, ETC.,
to come on board for orders during
the ships company's dinner hour. On
one occasion the liliputian lieutenant
wanted suit of clothes, and Attick,
the principal tailor of Hong Kong,
came on board, and was requisitioned
to measure and make terms with him
for suit of the best blue flannel,
when, after making the required meas
urement in the ward room, the naviga
ton lieutenant asked the price.
Attick-How muchee? No. / cloth,
No. l piece work, my Charge you 80
dollar
Navigation lieutenant-Haiyah! You
all the same twice eye (scoundreD, me
smallee piece man, my no pay so
muchee big man.
| After lot of bargain driving, dur
ing which Attick had kept reiterating
"Largee man, smallee man, alice same
price" he agreed to make the suit for
$25.
Then the vast first lieutenat appear
ed on the scene: his cabin leading
into the wardroom, he had heard the
colloquy, and said: 'Attick, l want
chez suit of clothes, makee measure -
81 III l.,
muchee largee, no can makee meas
ure, no can gettee arm round.
First Observation-Disclosures measure,
chop chop (quickly).
Attick thereupon struggled to obey
the command.
First lieutenant-Now, Attick, how
muchee?
Attick-Halyah! you too muchee
largee; you wantchee too muchee
cloth.
First eutenant-Masquee all that,
(never mind)-how muchee?
Attick-My takee you true. Suppose
charge so dollar, my makee losee.
First lieutenant-My wanchee pay %

Attick-How can? Other nan too

First Lieutenant-Attick, you talkee

less price, because my always CHARGE

Attick-My no savee, man all same
size as you. No can gettee arm round

Subsequently. however, poor Attick
was compelled to stick to his own as
severation Of "Smallee man, largee
man, all same price," and went away
muttering, my no talkee same talk
another time! Halyah! My losee too
muchee."
An amusing sequence to the above
took place 20 years after, when the
same first lieutenant met one of the
attaches of the English legation in
Japan in the Kings road, Chelsea,
who, on being greeted by the former
first lieutenant. shook him warmly by
the hand and said: How are you, old
fellow? forget your name this mo-
ment, but you are 1argee man. smallee
man, ~ same price. Gentlewoman.

MISSING PEOPLE.
The Great Mystery Which Sur
rouds Their Disappearance and
What becomes of Them.

Scarcely day passes that we do not
read In the newspapers of some man or
woman who is reported missing and N
the majority of cases these people for
sake happy homes without any earthly
reason for doing SO and their tate often
becomes mystery
'The cause Of these disappearance
has excited widespread discussion Of
late, and some OF our best novelists
have founded thrilling romances on this
strange subject. But no one has vet
been abe TO find an answer to the cues
ton, What becomes Of these missing
pe0ple?'
Perhaps the best explanation of the
mystery may be found in The words of a
New York physician who is keen OBJ
server. According to his theory, these
people are sufferers from various dis
astrous maladies from which they gain
no relief. Their surroundings eventu-
ally become unbearable to them. In
their diseased imaginations they fancy
everybody is an enemy although sur
rounded by friends. Driven to despair,
they at last forsake their homes and be-
come wanderers on the face of the earth
or else-which is very probab,e-com-
nit suicide"
Any person who is not IN perfect
health is liable to meet with this terri
bic fate. Even those who fancy them
selves strong, well and mentally sound
may become unhappy, morose and de-
spairing. The seriousness of these facts
should cause every man and woman to
stop, consider and see if he or she is
really well. There are so many dread
fuI diseases that come upon the system
unaware, that show no symptoms but
ruin the life even before we know it.
The worst of all troubles of this kind
arises from uric acid poison, which, be-
ing in the blood, not only causes rheu-
matlsm, neuralgia and govt, but often
affects the mind or vital organs. Now,
the cause of uric acid in the system or
in the blood is because the kidneys are
either too weak or too diseased to throw
it from the system. When the uric acid
is not discharged it rema 8 in the blood,
poisons the body and often the mind
and causes disease and too frequently
DEATH
rs it not plain and simple then, that
in order to avoid moroseness, pain and
often worse things, it is necessary to get
rid Of this uric acid? This can only be
done by helping the kidneys, which
may have been weakened, to throw it
out and that quickly.
