A black Cigar.

The reader who remembers his first
cigar. and how it affected him, may be
able to sympathize with the young sol
der in Cuba who lately narrated one
Of his war experiences. Il had learned
to smoke before l entered the service,
but was not an extravagant smoker, by
any means. and easily fell victim to
a job which one of the officers put up
on me. He went to one of the shops,
and ordered large cigar made of the
very strongest tobacco to be found.
Did you ever see Cuban smoker OF
that description? 1t is almost as
black as ink, and has the strength of
whole smoking car. boiled down. There
is tradition that Gen. Grant got sick
on one of that kind once. Well, the
officer casually pulled that cigar out
Of his pocket one day. and said he
would give silver dollar to anybody
who could smoke It. Like fool took
him up. Now, understand he said,
you've got to smoke 1t to the last
gasp" We'll. did your" asked one of
the listeners. YES" replied the young
soldier, Il smoked 1t to the last gasp
and the first paroxysm. But 1t cured
me. l have never been able to look

Farmers Son Din ~ Tee Cure Himself of
Insomnia.
Frank Hooley. farmers son, has
confessed to being the one who bored
holes in the buildings all over the lit
tie hamlet of Montville, Geauga county.
and in SO doing surfeited that part of
Ohio with mystery and no end OF SUI
perstitious fright. and incidentally OF
causing the suicide of one man to
whom circumstantial evidence pointed
as the perpetrator Of the deed. Hooley,
who is 10 years old, appeared before
Justice Case and swore to the follow
ing story: About one year ago be-
gan to be troubled with insomnia
Later the trouble became worse and I
passed night after night without Sleep
When I shut my eyes I could see au-
gers. To the right augers and to the
left nothing but augers. l felt an IN
comfortable desire to bore holes. and
was so nervous that thought should
go crazy. One night. after trying in
vain for several hours to go to sleep.
1 arose, went to the barn. and bored a
hole in one of the doors. Immediately
i experienced change of feeling and
my nervousness disappeared. ] went
to bed and slept soundly all night. I
had found remedy for my ills, but 1t
did not last long, and soon found
that boring holes In the barn would
not bring sleep. felt that must try
tie house. and did. About one hole to
each house. and the virtue was gone.
l make this confession because ! am
sick OF the business. and wish to be
taken where can be treated for this
nameless disease" The announcement
OF this strange statement has made
sensation second only to the discovery
OF the holes. For weeks after the dis
covery was made the little settlement
was In a fever Of excitement. Resi-
dents were utterly at loss to explain
the purpose of the borings. A hole
had been bored through the outside
wall OF every dwelling in the village
except two, and in few houses two
holes were bored. Hooley is six feet
tall and unusually thin. His shoulders
are bent and his eyes sunken.-New

be that the former party will lose and
the latter gain at the next general ex-
preston of popular sentiment AS la
Dor has been one of the chief benefi-
Charles of this changed condition, it is
natural to suppose that there would
be an especially large gain to the Re
publican party from the labor vote
particularly in the manufacturing dis
tricts- The ripe student of political
history, however, will not accept this
view implicitly.
When President Harrison was de-
feated for reelection the country was
in a prosperous condition Nearly all
the mills were running full time and
wages were good 1t was difficult to be-
neve that the wage-earners in any
number would vote for a change But
they did The Democrats piled up
some of the largest majorfties in sec
tions dotted with mills and farnaces-
A great many wage-earners listened to
promises that times for themselves and
everybody else might even be better
and they voted to usher in a condition
of things which, instead of helping
them, swamped everybody
Again in Ohio last year. Golden Rule
Jones, on a platform wholly theoretical
and unsubstantial, drew almost his en-
tire support of over a hundred thou
sand votes from the manufacturing
cities of the state An almost uneX-
ampled business boom was in progress
Everybody with the will and the
strength to work were hard at work
and prospecting. The state campaign
was generally regarded as a skirmish
line fight for advantage this year, and
hence the wage-earners were adjured
to stand by the party of sound money
and protection. But, nevertheless, Mr..
Jones made what, in the circumstan-
ces was a surprisingly large inroad on
that vote.
This unnatural and unreasonable
course on the part of labor is due to
two causes. Demagogues make their
appeals specially to the labor vote, and
1aboring men are too often suspicious
of the party which makes business
good because of an absurd belief that
whoever helps capital to prosper is an
enemy of labor. The Republican par
tvs gains this year, therefore, may be
expected to come chiefly from business
men and farmers, who know the adj
vantages of living under a sound mon
ey and business stimulating admins
tration, and are not willing to take
chances under any other kind-and
from Democrats who cannot indorse
their own party's narrow sighted pol
icy against national expansion--Kan-

There is very little doubt that the

Wilson law free trade had closed our
factories, put business at a standstill
and thrown men out of work. Men
with work to do haven't time to hang
around looking for trouble, and our
policy of a protective tariff sees to it
that men have work to do-al1 they

Right Sort of Reciprocity.

1t is true that as the chairman of
the Ways and Means committee and
the author of the Mckinley bill'' of
1890, Major Mckinley did at that time
report and doubtless favor f'reciproc-
ity'' clause but the reciprocity which
he favored in 1890 was a very different
article from that incorporated in the
present law. The reciprocity of 1896
was a manly notice to all nations that
if they did not treat us fairly we
would raise the duties certain OF
their products. There was no proposal
to lower our duties in any case By
the Mckinley bill raw sugar, molasses,
coffee tea and hides were upon the
free list, our sugar growers being com
pensated by bounty on production.
but the President was empowered,
whenever satisfied that countries ex-
porting those articles were imposing
on United States products duties which
under the circumstances were unfair,
TO promptly impose reciprocal
duty on those articles imported from
such country That is not bad kind
of reciprocity, and it is the only kind
which Mr.. Mckinley advocated when
in Congress.-San Francisco Chronicle.
