The Situation Reversed,

The customs receipts for May, 1899,
we're some $5,O00,O00 more than those
of May, 1898. This is what was to be
expected, and the fact is very good
Indication of the way in which Pro
tective Tariff, while its main object is
to Protect American industries, is yet a
better producer of revenue than is So
called "Revenue Tariff" With bust
ness at standstill, with mills shut
down and people out of work, we have
less money with which to buy either
American-made products or goods
from abroad. A Revenue Tariff, there
fore, by destroying American indus
tries, destroy olso our import trade and
cuts down revenue. A Protective
Teriff, on the other hand, by making
American industries prosperous, by
giving work at high wages to the
American people, enables them to buy
freely both at home and abroad. Dur
ing the four years of depression intro
duced by the election of Cleveland, we
bought very sparingly of foreign pro-
ducts of our own factories. Now
with the country prosperous and with
money plenty, the situation is reversed

Science and SpirituaIl,m.

We have recently been entertained
by the daily press with accounts Of
spiritualistic investigation of the i'm
mortality of the soul, which is remark
able, not so much for the novelty of
the results obtained, as for the promi-
nent position occupied by the chief
inquisitor as a professor in one of our
foremost institutions of learning.
That Prof. Iyslop believes that he
has found in spiritualism additional
and complete proofs of the souls
Immortality can hardly be questioned.
He states that he has arrived at his
conclusions only after amost thorough
and palnstaking examination, in which
all possibility of fraud was carefully
excluded. Indeed, it is the very meth
cd of investigation employed which
Prof. Hyslop so strongly emphasizes;
for ne lays great stress upon the scienitf-
ic methods, the care, and exhaustiveness
which characterize his inquiry and dis
tinguish it from previous work in this
direction.
Prof. Hyslop has asked the public
to Withhold its judgment until he has
published a full account of his expert
ments and submitted the facts which he
has gathered to the scientific world. AS
matter of mere courtesy and justice
we should wait. But in the meantime
we can not help remarkinR how puerile
and PruitIess have been the results of
previous attempts, how dispropoFtion-
ate the time and efforts expended.
Such men as Marsh, kebble, DIR. HOdg-
SON and Prof. James have also at
tempted scientific investigation of
spirltualisttc phenomena. Mr.. Marsh,
we are told, talks with Adam and Eve
with Methusaleh and other biblical
parsonage. Mr.. Kebble conVersed with
Washington, Bonaparte, Byron and a
host of equally distinguished men, and
both Hodgson aud James have brought
all the undoubted critical acumer
of their minds TO bear upon the case Of
Mrs. Piper. The actual results, judged
from a dtspassionate, scientifice stand
point, ara disappointing. Even in the
case of HodgsOn and James, they arr
vague, trivial and inconclusiYe.
The many newspapers articles Whicl
have appeared on Prof. Hyslop's ex
perments give us (chiehy because 0
his rettcenee) no coherent account o
