called to account. Our consul has

in rendering hisresignation, if Cong.
continues to turn a deaf ear to the
entreaties coming from the people
that the American government
claims to protect.
Whatever may he the theories
in respect to free trade and pro-
lection, there are certain signif-
cant facts that cannot be overlook
ed. For thirty years, from the
early '60's to the early '90's, this
country did business under a pro-
tective tariff and was prosperous.
During that time the nation fought
one of the most gigantic and de-
structive wars on record. Two
millions of men were under arms.
Billions of dollars worth of prop
erty were destroyed, and nation
al debt of about three billions cre-
ated. But under the protective
system the nation carried this bur-
den of waste, destruction, loss and
debt easily. After the war closed
the debt was put in the way Of
liquidation. The interest was
promptly paid and a portion Of
the principal was wiped out each
year, the national treasury in the
meantime accommodating a surplus
that became cause Of fierce par
tisan complaint. It was charged
by the opposition to republican
rule, that it was a wasteful impo-
sition upon the people to keep a
surplus of $l0O,O0O,O0O or more
lying idle in the treasury.
But in 1898 the edict went forth
for change Of policy and in 1898
the change was enacted. The
tariff REFORM bill was passed.
The policy was shifted from pro-
lection to tariff for revenue only;
the specific duties imposed by re-
publican legislation were changed
wherever possible to ad valorem
duties.
| What was the result? Has any
Of the national debt been paid off
since the change of tariff policy
went into effect? Is there any
longer surplus Of revenue? Has
the country been prosperous?
The answers to these questions
are SO obvious and palpable that
they need no elaboration. Mr..
Cleveland's administration, the
administration under which the
"tariff REFORM policy was intro
duced, is just going out Of power.
It leaves legacy of added debt, a
deficit in the revenue amounting
to $50,000,000 during tho past
year, and trail Of business dis
aster, ruin and devastation that
appals the stoutest heart. It is
estimated that the shrinkage in
values and the losses to the com
munity under the three years of
'tariff reform exceed many times
over the awful waste and destruc-
ton Of five years of civil war

A Careful Mother.

A contributor to The American Sports
man tells an interesting story ola hum
ming-bird. ''In front OF a window where
| worked last summer" he says, was
butternut tree. A humming-bird built
her nest on a limb that grew near the
window. and we had an opportunity to
watch her closely. In fact, we could look
right into the nest. One day when there
was heavy shower coming up we
thought we would see if she covered her
young during the rain. Well, when the
first drops fell she came and took in her
bill one of two or three large leaves
growing close by, and laid this leaf over
the nest so as to completely cover it;
then she flew away. On examining the
leaf we found hole in it, and in the side
of the nest was small stick that the leaf
was fastened to or hooked upon. After
the storm was over, the old bird came
back and unlocked the leat and the
nest was perfectly dry"

And all their days are eladness,
And melodies prolong.
