AS to the political responsible
ity for trusts there is none. Trusts
are no more Republican or Dem
ocratic than are ordinary bust
ness combinations on a small
scale. Their friends and enemies,
the bene6ciaries aud victims, are
in all parties, and they thrive in
England and Germany as well as
in America. In the eastern rural
districts, where the heaviest Re-
publican vote exists, the warfare
upon trusts is waged with more
vigor than is eviden ced in Demo-
cratic cities, where Tie
bulk of the labOring popula-
ton is in some way dependent on
industrial pursuits. Produce a
remedy for the evil and the Re
publican party will be as quick to
take it up and press il as any 9TH
er. Nor will it be less assiduous
in search of a remedy. With
things in this condition how is It

ties are equally solicitous to

property rights Of all kinds
are more generally respected by
the married than by the single.
The graver offenses against prop
erty-robbery, extortion, fraud,
etc.-are committed by the mar
ried man with comparative infre-
quency. When he is driven to
the unlawful requirement of
wealth or of material goods, he
generally chooses some of the
less dangerous methods of so do
ing. Receiving stolen goods,
breaking of laws relative to trade,
commerce, and public health, for
chile detention of pieces Of prop
erty, bankruptcy, etc, are the
forms which offenses against
property usually assume among
married men. Among those
married at an extremely early
age eighteen to twenty-fve)
trespasses against the rights of
property are much more common
than among the unmarried at a
corresponding age. This is
probably explained by the fact
that in such marriages poverty, if
not a concomitant, Is frequently 4
result. Incendiarisrn iS most
largely found among the unmar-
ried, the greatest proportion fall
ing to the account of widowers
and single men between the ages
of thirty and sixty years. SO
In the sphere Of crime and ofense
against human life, the unmarried
are greater sinners than the mar
ried, tho not so markedly so a. in
the offences against property
rights. Only in the matter of
careless and negligent killing and
wounding do the married surpass
the unmarried, The difference
in the criminality of the married
and the unmarried grows less
with advancing years. Between
the ages of fifty and sixty years
it is small: after that period it is
less " The criminality Of
widowers decreases with advanc-
ing age. Their share in crime
between the ages of thirty and
fifty is notably greater than that
of either of the other classes men
toned 1t has been said, in
attempted explanation of this fact
that widOwers are, as a rule, i'll
situated, financially, but there APP
pears to be no satisfactory evil
dence that this is true. Statistics
do not prove that widowers be-
long to the poorer classes in any
unusual degree. Widowers are
especially prominent in offences
against property; but they also
stand first in the series Of those
guilty Of other classes Of crime.
The loss of the wife very fire.
quently leads to mental derange-
ment, and it is probably true, as
well, that certain types of self
control are peculiarly difficult for
this class to exercise. "Zeitschrif

Ths TarIfI !, a Is,ue.

used this language:
"The tariff is not an issue of the
same importance as in the past.
The policy of protection aimed to
build up our industries to a point
where th.y could stand independ-
ent on their own feet. This OBJ
jcct has been accomplished. Pro-
tecton has established the COM
plete industrial independence of
this country, More than that, it
may fairly be said that it has sub
stantially established our indus
trial supremacy. The truth has
been demonstrated within the last
two years, as we are now beat
ing the products of the Old
World on their own grounds.
with this development Of our
home industries to the point where
they completely possess the home
market and are able to reach
abroad, the protective issue has
not the same vital force it had
during the period of struggle and
development"
This prompts the Chicago
"Chronicle" to ask: "Then why
not abolish protection, all that has
been accomplished would be de-
stroyed. While here and there
some industry has under its egis
so thriven and developed as to no
longer require the paternal as
sistance of the Government and
should be placed upon the free
list instead Of being an argument
in support of the abolition of the
policy under which the manufact-
ures of America are fast reaching
the happy stage of independence,
this happy result rather stands as
an object lesson calculated to i'm
press every lover Of his country
with the wisdom of that policy
which has brought to wealth,
happiness and prosperity an en-
tire people.
The tariff can no longer be
made the all-absorbing issue of
political campaign because the
benefits of protection are so uni
versally recognized that its most
persistent enemies have no long
er the courage to assail it. Four
years of contrast under the OPP
Grafton of each of the two oppos-
ing systems have been fraught
with an experience which the peo-
pie are unwilling to unlearn. Suf-
fering, beggary, starvation and
bankruptcy, which have settled
on the nation like a pail, have
given way to the most phenomen-
al era of universal prosperity that
ever glorified and uplifted an af-
hicted continent, and the masses
refuse absolutely to exchange the
material benefits of a safe and
salutary policy for the promises of
an Elusive chimera which had
brought in its train but disaster
and ruin.
This is the truism that POST
master General Smith announced,
and that his declaration is to go
unchallenged is made evident by
the solicitude with which the
leaders of the Democratic party
jealousy avoid all reference to the
tariff issue. Four years of a de-
velopment which has firmly es-
our industrial supremacy
affords practical illustration of
the virtues of protective tariff
which even Mr., Bryan is content
to respect. In this sense, not only |
is the tariff no longer an issue of
the same importance as in the
past, but it is in every essential
a dead issue.-New Orleads |

Mistakes VIII Happen.

A coming engagement at the Burtis,
Friday, Feb. 10, which will appeal
strongly to all fun lovers is that of
Jacob Lifts company, which will pre-
sent Grant Stewards roaring comedy,
Mistakes Will Happen There is
not, "says one of the best dramatic crit
les in the country, "a single slow mo-
ment from the rise of the curtain until
its final fall. The action never drags
and the lines fairly bubble with spark
ling and witty sayings" The company
which Mr.. Lift has engaged is one of
exceptional strength. 1t is headed by
Charles Dickson and Henrietta Cros-
man, two people whose connection
with any company is sufficient to
guarantee an exceptionally fine per-
formance. The company carries, every
thing, even to the smallest properties,
and the production is most elaborate.
This engagement of Mistakes Will
Happen" will be one of the comedy
events of the season.

seems salvation Isn't Free.

Up in Clinton it seems the weary
toilers of the press and the good peO-
pie who labor in the Lords vineyard
have reached the conclusion that sal
walton isn't free after all. Not
alone is faith without works dead
on the Wapsie bottoms, but faith
without donations as well. Hear
what the Herald, speaking of local
contemporary, says: "A certain pa
per that makes business of running
church advertisements free, has
boosted, through its management,
that it runs such notices free to tickle
the women, aud then always over
charges merchants connected with
the same church sufficiently to more
than make up the donation. The
Herald never charges for notices for
entertainments strictly for charity,
but we do not think the 40 or more
churches and the dozens of lodges
should expect the papers to give them
free advertising. When the people
think of this in the right spirit they
will cease to ask or expect it. The
Herald is very religious, but it cannot
worship ut 40 churches. To adver-
tise free for 40 churches would be
an expensive way of getting to
heaven

less Wanderers.
Senator StubbIetield, of Blooming
ton, has bill which he designates as
his tramp" bill. 1t is designed to
keep track of the wanderers who go
from town TO town. The bill pro-
vides that every lamp or vagrant
shall register his name with the town
clerk in every town he may visit,
whereupon he will be given Il certi-
iicate OF Identification by the town
clerk. This certificate will entitle the
holder to proceed upon his way
without molestation. Under Senator
Stubblefield's bill the knight of the
road who happens to forget to reg
lister with the town clerk will be sum-
marily dealt with when he does alight.
The fine for this neglect is not less
than $50 nor more than 5000, to be
worked out in improving the public
streets at the rate of 81 per day.
