CAUSES OF HARD TIMES.

There was a time when, with a much
smaller population and much less
wealth than we have now, we had no
difficulties ir the treasury-no deficien-
cy Of revenue and, what was Of much
more consequence, Nc distress among
the people. If the causes which pro
duce the present difficulties with the
people can be removed, we certainly
will return to the old condition of pros
perity and happiness. 1t would seem
that there should be no difficulty in
finding out what changes have occur
red and in ascertaining beyond ques-
ton the cause of our present troubles.
There must be something radically
wrong somewhere if the richest and
freest nation on the globe is in such a
condition Of absolute belplessness and
dependence as the President of the Uni
fed States seems to consider us now.
In this country the people are the
source not only of power, but also Of all
wealth and prosperity. When they are
prosperous business will flourish, all
branches of commerce will be active,
and no financial difficulties will come
to the treasury except as the result OF
insufficient revenue laws; but no rev.
enue system, no matter how wisely or
judiciously formed, can provide reye-
hue unless there is commerce and active
business 4 time Of industrial depres-
sion and commercial Stagnation must
. be and ought to be a time of embar-
rasSment for the Government. The
laws we now have on the statute books
will, with the revival of business, pro-
vide ample revenue. The change need
ed is not in the revenue laws, but in
the financial condition of the people at
large Whatever embarrassmentS the
Government may now have TO encoun-
ter are the result of the depressed con-
dition of all branches of business and
the unsatisfactory condition Of the peo-
pie generally. If we can devise a
means of relieving these, there will be
no difficulty about the condition Of the
Government or OF the revenues.-From
James II. Jones speech. in the United
States Senate.

The Trusts Are Prosperous.

1t is poor sort of a day that does not
witness the formation of trust of
huge proportions. Among the late born
into the family is the wall paper trust,
thirty-five or forty millions dollars cap
itaI, and it is boldly stated that prices
OF wall paper will advance % to 80 per
cent. The plug tobacco trust is now
expected to make its appearance in a

Col. Roosevelt, with immaculate
gravity, warned the audience he ad-
dressed in New York City the other
night that the United States, in contin-
uing to act on the advice Of George
Washington as regards the expansion
Of its territory, were in danger of
lapsing into the condition of China. We
are inclined to wonder if the Colonel
thinks he makes votes by this kind of
talk or if it is only the exhibition of
that erratic quality in him as a man of
him public confidence in his previous

Why Restricted Free Trade:

At banquet recently given by the
Illinois Manufacturers Association,
resolutions were adopted in which the
national government is asked to estab-
lish free trade between this country
and Cuba, the Philippine islands and
Porto Rico. 1t is not explained why
the Illinois Manufacturers Association
drew the line there. Surely if free
trade is a good thing it should not be
confined to few islands, where our

A NEW HALF-BREED,
Part Horse and Part Zebra aud IL
Called u ZcbrOiI.

The mule, says Cosmos, partalxes of
the qualities of the ass and the horse.
The zebra having now been domesti-
Gated, 1T has been asked whether we
can obtain from it an analogous half
breed. Baron dc Parann has obtained
cne and calls it the "zebroid" The
young animal IS now six months old;
1t is male of bay color with stripes
similar to those of the zebra. These
stripes are well marked on the neck,
the head and the legs; those Of the body
are not visible, because Of the thick
winter coat. The name is black and
resembles that of the zebra; the tail
looks like mules, but has longer hair.
The cars arc small with rounded points
like the zcbra's. The haunch is well
formed, rounded, and quite large; the
chest is long and high, which makes the
animal hold it's head high. and conse-
qucntly gives it n good carriage The
eyes arc large and full Of feeling; the
nostriIs large; the lips small and much
like those Of Arab horses (the mare,
the mother Of this zebroid, was one
quarter Arab; the head is small; the
legs muscular, but delicate, showing
that he will be very agile; the hoofs
small, black and very hard. lie is very
lively but very gentle, and loves to be
caresscd. Ee eats very well. not only
in the stall, but in pasture. These
facts, we arc told, are from communi-
cation made by the breeder to the M
tional Acclimation society, which IL
