USES OF ADVERSELY.

The New York "Tlmes" in comment
ing editorially upon the reported trade
negotiations between Russia and Great
Britain In respect to the far East, en-
larges upon what 1t considers to be
the advantages possessed by Great
Britain in being a Free-Trade country,
and, after indicating that, in it's judy
ment, a tendency toward Free-Trade Is
developing in other European coun-
tries, 1t winds up with:
In any case, 1t is the plain duty of
our own Government to cooperate in
ell practicable ways with this ten
dency toward Free-Trade, wherever
and by whomever manifested
To whom does our own Government
owe this duty? Is it owed to the ma
lions of Europe, who have long been
looking with eager and longing eyes
upon the American marketf The
American people will hardly see Il
duty in that direction, however, the
"Times" may view it. Or, does the
Grimes" think that THE duty to CO.
operate with the tendency toward
FreeTrade' is owed to the people of
this country 1t has been said we adj
init, that sweet are the uses of adj
versity,' and II may he that the
Chimes" thinks it the duty of the GOV
eminent to give the American people
another dose of adversely such as that
with which they We're surfeited dur
ing the Tariff Reform" administla-
ton of Mr.. Cleveland.
If the "limes" has any such idea,
as would seem to br the case from the
nature of its proposition, it will find
itself one of very small minority.
The American people may believe that
adversely has its uses, but they are
perfectly willing to let the matter end
with belief rather than with fresh
experience. and they can, on the
/ whole. be trusted IN vote for prosper
| ity and therefore for the continuance
of the Protective Tariff.

tus is out of order, no amount of
starvation diet will regulate it, but

with Bakers Mandrake Bitters, and
then eat reasonably of wholesome

Other and Better Ways.

The Free-Trade element is clamoring
for the repeal of the Protective Tariff
as method of stamping out trusts
There is no doubt that the introduction
of Free-Trade as our national policy
would stamp out many trusts; but it
would stamp them out by stamping
out the industries of the country. If
there are no Industries, there can be
no industrial trusts. That's sure.
And Free-Trade has proved itself n
hustler in getting rid of industries.
But however anxious the people of the
country may be to get rid of trusts,
they are not likely TO be willing to get
rid of them at that cost If man has
q boil on his leg he can get rid of it,
beyond a doubt, by cutting off his leg.
But there are other ways. The cut
ting off of the leg would be the method
approved of by the Free-Traders, If
they would be consistent Kill the
trusts, they say, by killing the indus
tries.
The question Is complicated one,
and will need for its satisfactory solu-
ton the broadcast craftsmanship and
the maximum of ability. That it will
be rightly solved in time there can be
little doubt. The American people
have q pretty good record for solving
difficult problems. Just what that So
show. 1t Is safe TO prophesy however,
that the solution will not involve the
wholesale industrial ruin which would
be the inevitable result of an abandon
ment of the Protective policy.

mere is 1iotnlng new in the attitude
of Pennsylvania protectionsts. For
years they fought grand fight for the
home market as against unrestricted
foreign competition. That fight has
been won. and with the winning of it
have come new victories, growing out
of that great victory. The gaining of
new foreign markets was the natural
and logical outcome of Protection
