A SURPRISED DRIVER.

A big rack Of bones, namely, a horse
attached to a peddler wagon, made an at
tempt to run away yesterday afternoon
while the driver was in a house on Ocean
avenue. He evidently thought better of it
after he LAT run about two blocks down
Ocean venue for he steered off into a
vacant lot and began to chew grass.
The driver on coming out of the house
almost had a fit, when he saw that his
horse and wagon had disappeared. He
cast a look up and down the street and
heavens. this must be the age of miracles
when a skate like that will run away"
He found him later quietly eating grass
in the lot at Ocean and Winfield avenues.

ii would be as reasonable to compel a

POTTERY Schedule Piracy.

The Newark Sunday CAR does q
good service this week in exploding the
falsehood of General Sewelrs recent re-
marks in the Senate upon the pottery in
dustry and the tariff. 1t shows clearly
ana forcibly that recent depression IN the
business is due to the too great pr~otectioh
which Senator James Smith secured Tor
1t in the Wilson Act in defiance OF the
pledges made by his party. The "Sai
very justly ascribes the failures which
have taken place in the trade to its be-
ing overdone. 1t says there have been
reckless ventures with inadequate capital
and there has been much carelessness IN
manufacture. The consequences have been
disastrous. and a low tariff has scarcely
been among contributing causes"
This is the universal and inevitable re-
suit of protection. It offers a prospect
of artificial and inflated profits. which
tempts unwary investors. The result Is
over Investment, over production, over
competition, depression of prices, failure
of the weak investors, combination OF
the strong ones into a trust, artificial re-
striction of production. artificial xagger-
alton of prices. and. perhaps, If the pro-
lection lasts long enough. the repetition
of all the steps over again.
The "State Gazette has epileptic fits
today over the Calls severe arraign-
ment of General Sewell and the potteries.
The potteries are among the combina-
lions which suborn the State Gazette"
and the little gentleman from Red Dog.
or somewhere, does his best to give his
masters the value of their money. He
bowls for a specific duty on pottery be-
cause it makes the importation impossi-
bic. of cheap wares, which are in great
est demand and on which most money is
made. He pictures the potters, too. as
sheroically'' keeping their establishments
In operation. This is rather straining
credulity. if he means by "heroically"
that they rave been operated at a loss.
Indeed, we do not believe any such
thing, and the State Gazette does not
believe it either.
The Red Dog luminary 1apses into
two incautious utterances. In one place
he asks;-"Was pottery ware ever as
cheap in this country as now?" To the
mind of a logical man, this would settle
the whole question. If the Wilson tariff
has. made it cheaper than ever before,
why let us keep the Wilson tariff by all
means and give the seventy millions
who use pottery products of all sorts low
prices. no matter what may be the fate
of a thousand people or SO in Trenton
who, it is admitted. lave been able to
keep their establishments in operation
right along.
The other unwise remark is this:-
If the potteries of Trenton could have
been operated to their full capacity dur
ing the last three years at a profit
millions Of dollars were ready for invest
ment in them.
Is not this a plain admission of wha1
the Cali says: that the establishment
Of protection instantly results in over in
vestment and over production.
