Prosperity Await. ProtectIon

There are some complaints by the
doubling Thomases that the election Of
Mckinley las transported US back at
once 70 sneh prosperity as we bad IN
1891 and 1892, under the Mckinley
law. That is about as reasonable as to
expect roses to bloom out Of doors in
December because june is coming. Be.
sause we know June is coming. We
may order rose trees. but we don't ex
poet the roses to bloom until the De
cember snow is gone. While the Wilson
German bill is the law Of the laud we
eauno, expect any great measure of pros
perity. The most that we can hope for
is that we may be spared from further
disaster Merchants have the same iu-
iucemeuts to buy abroad that they have
had from tho the beginning Of the law
tits true that many mills which were
closed have started up, and that many
others which would have shut down in
case Of McKinley's defeat have cootin-
ued So much substantial good has
come from the mere prospect of Pro;ec
ion in the near future But these mills
have gone on with work in expectation
Of future or iers. when Protection to
American industries will once more be
established. rathersthan to meet present
demands Confidence has been restored
aud futher disaster prevented by the as
surance of the establishment of the
American system; but real or widespread
prosperity cannot come until Protection
to American industries is reality of
the present and not promise Of the
future.

wanted a wheel, "you'll find one in
in the front end of that wheelbarrow
and there Is big pile of coal ashes
back of the house that will have to be
moved. The handle bars are OF
white ash and are adjustable, SO you
can get any style OF hump on that
suits your fancy. 1t 10 regulated
largely by the load you put on. The
The bigger the load the more you
have to hump yourself Be careful
and don't mar the enamel on the
frame, and keep the ball-bearipgs
well-oiled, SO they won't cut into the
cones. The tirs is absolutely puncture-
less, so you wont have to take pump
aud repair kit With you. BY the time
you have removed that pile Of ashes

Of the torpedo boats draw oyer six
