Trade between the states and terri.
tories Of this Union is entirely free. No
tariff duties are imposed in taking
commodities from one state to another.
And there is no good reason for I'M
posing tariff taxes upon the trade be-
tween Canada and these states, or be.
tween Mexico and us. Why should not
trade be as free with them as with our
selves2
A free interchange Of commodities
with our neighbors would be beneficial
all round. There would be no need Of
custom houses or custom house officers,
which are always expensive. Besides,
it would put a stop to smuggling, an
other nuisance. A reciprocity treaty is
urged, but this is not worth consider
ing. There is nothing in reciprocity,
being a mere selfish bargaining arrange
ment without change of principle in
tariff denominations.
Annexing Hawaii bring those islands
within our tariff arrangements, free
trade to us, but to other nations trad.
ing there our tariff exactions. When
Cuba and Por.o Rico are brought in
they will be in the same position, as
also will be Manila should it become
ours. 1t is very evident that these ad-
ditions will, in all likelihood, render i'm.
perative modification of tariff duties.
No narrow Dingleyism will be admissi.
BILE. 1t must give way before liberal
ideas and expansion with the modern
that are constantly
changing conditions and situations.

lust after he had attained to his major

Soon after this promotion he made

Confident that the father must have
noticed his attentions to the daughter,
been aware of what they imported, ana
no objections thereto, he easily found
courage to say to him:

roll of bills, requesting him to see if
they represented the specified sum, as
the accountant found they did.
William Dow resided nearly two miles
from Merton village, on a 6esolate
road, and it was so dark that evening
that Walter was inclined to avail him

at least, to take a lantern along with
him. But he decided TO do neither of
the two.
He had gone on lis way somewhat

With these words, he mounted his

that led from Merton.
As he started, something dropped to
the ground-apparently from his pocket
which, STOPPING to see what it was,
Walter found to be a plethoric pocket
book, and placed in his own pocket.
Reaching the village, he went to Mr.
Parker's and narrated to him his adj
venture. Then, producing the pocket
book, he opened it, to find therein quite
an amount of counterfeit money, a
large number of check blanks, repre-
senting various banks, nearly $1,000 in
good money.
