The TARIFF AND THE TRUSTS.

From the New York sun.
The greatest of all trusts, the Stan
dard oil trust, aud Mr.. Havcmeyer's
company, the sugar trust, two cap
italistic piles So colossal that they
tower far above all others of their
class, are not built upon the tariff at
all.
OF is on the free list, with a pro-
vision for duty u on oil from coun-
tries that tax oil imported from the
United States. Refined sugar has II
duty of only about - per cent nd
valorem, n rate so low that, in Mr.
Havemeyer's opinion, sugar refining
is outside of the protected industries.

Oshkosh Northwestern: There is a
growing disposition among republi
cans 10 deprive those trusts which
are clearly deriving benefit from a
protective tariff OF any further adj
vantage from that source. Not that
an absence of protection will break
all trusts for il is already seen that
haltof them exist without any nro-
,ectiou; but for the double purpose
OF removing any possible govern
mental fostering of trusts. aud to
demonstrate the lalsity Of the demo-
cratic contention chat the rcpubli-
can party is the essential friend and
champion OF trusts. The principal
financial question involved is that
of public revenue. II tariff duties
are reduced to Is point where they
will not produce sufficient revenue
for governmental purposes, the
country must surely resort to inter
nal and more direct taxation for the
support Of our public establishments.
II the people prefer this mode of
,elt-uNatiou they should have what
they call for But il may be safely
predicted that when il comes to
touching the people with more di.
rect taxation in place OF higher tariff
duties. the democratic party will be
the first 70 raise cry against il
The democratic party l. always al
home with that element and in that
philosophy that would make some
thing out e nothing Of thar would
have plsnty with na place from
which 10 get il.

THE MAIDS or LONG AGO.

For The Post.
oh, the photos of the maids we used to
How we pick them out and set them in n
row,
And We gaze along the line
OF the eyes which used to shine,
OF these littlc maidens Of the long ago
Some with hrows as pure as driven snow.
And tresses like the sunsets after glow,
And lips like ruby wine
Whose mem RIGS round us Irvine,
And make our present lives seem dull and
slow.
And some with eyes as dark as any slae,
That cause our sluggish blood to cbb and
flow.
Our foolish hearts beat time,
TO a half forgotten rhyme
Sung by little maiden soft aud low.
And two brown eyes like velvet burn and
glow
AS back adown tho years fond mem'r1es
iiow
To that happy careless time
When young love was in its prime,
Ere the wintry winds of life began to
blow
'Tis with sign we gaze along the row.
The eyes are dimmod with tears that used
to glow,
N has been a dreary time
Since We quaned litos rosy wine.
And our steps are growing feeble, halt aud
slow.
But those scntllatlng orbs along the row
With old-time love and sympathy stlll
glow
And the lips which clung TO mine
Like the twining Byzantine
Seem pouting for a kiss they used TO know.
oh no cruel marks OF time the faces show
Thro' the years which roughly jostle me
aud so
Ger the head so bowed by time.
Their kindly chances shine.
And I'm happy with the maids Of long ago.
