ru,n,,msnt Exceed. Promise.

The country's experience with the
unfulflled promises of the Free-Trad-
ers and with the unpromised fulfill
ment of the Protectionists affords a
tural parable of the two sons, one of
whom said, Il go, SIR and went not;
the other, of whom said, Il go not
and went. The Wilson law supporters
promised to give us the markets of the
world through their Tariff changes in
the direction of Free Trade. Instead
they gave our markets to the foreign
ers and struck death blow to Amer1-
can industries. The supporters of the
Protective Tariff policy have never
made many promises in respect to
the securing of foreign markets. They
have advocated Protection chiefly as
a means of preserving to us our home
market. They have kept their prom
ises, but they have gone far beyond
any promises Under Protection Am
erican manufacturers have kept for
themselves the American market, with
its marvellous consuming capacity, and
they have won much beyond that.
They have a large and constantly
growing share In the markets of the
world.
One of the most recent evidences OF
the entrance of American manufacture
ers into foreign fields is the announce
ment that the Baldwin Locomotive
Works has recently had, in addition tc
many other foreign orders, an order fol
ten Atlantic type passenger engines
for the state railroad of France. 1t is
also reported that the Jackson anC
Sharpe company have received a Iargt
order for tramway cars from Alexan
dria, Egypt. These things. amont
thousands of others like them, wer,
neither guaranteed nor promised bu

nign regime of Mckinley and Protec

rvpe as Ammunition.

At the time of the Maori war in New
Zealand a newspaper correspondent
had a. strange experience. The pub
fishing Office of a newspaper was close
to the scene of some of the hottest
fighting. During the struggle the
Maoris ran out of ammunition for their
guns and, raiding the newspaper Of
fees charged their guns with type and
stereo blocks. This novel ammunition
proved very effective One of the
white invaders was severely wounded
with a patent medicine advertisement
and another was crippled for life by a
church bazaar announcement, and the
editor who had taken refuge with the
British troops, had a narrow escape
from being hit with one of his own
poems

A medical authority claims that bad
spelling is caused by a disease. In
certain conditions of brain and nerves
the patient frequently writes -<ot'' in
stead OF to. In another slightly
varying form, instead of tthe," the
first letter is omitted, and so in many
other short words. The malady usual
Iy affects the brain only in connection
with words of one syllable, but cases
have occurred where longer words have
been SO distorted that 1t was difficult
to get their sense 1t is question
whether one would be comforted by be-
ing told that bad spelling was caused
by mental disease, or whether one
would prefer to have this lack of ac-
curacy set down to ignorance or care

The Philadelphia Ledger does not
believe that Congress can do anything
directly to overcome the trusts It
says: There is one method however
of coping with monopolistic trusts
without attempting specific legislation
Dronouncing them unlawful 1t would
effectually cripple the power of oppres-
sion exercised by the practical monopo-
lies which are the benefciaries Of
an excessive tariff. Should congress
lower the rate of duties on all products
that are the subjects of monopoly in
the home market the competition of
Europe would compel extortionate
trusts to deal justly by the American
consumer. This is eminentIy prac-
teal plan, which is in complete accord
with the protective tariff principle as
deemed by the last national convention

1t has been limited that even SHOULD
Mr. Bryan come east, perhaps he could
not stem the tide of increases in wages
which seems to be affecting all lines
of industry like a panic One of the
last advances reported Is the an
nouncement that January L the cotton
manufacturers of Augusta, Ga will
raise the wages of their employees, and
it is predicted that other southern
manufacturers will follow suit It is
estimated that when the first of Janu-
airy has come, there will be in the
northern states about LAG. OGO cotton
mill operatives working under increas-
ed wages, and that the advance in the
south will bring the total number OF
employees in that branch of industry
who are receiving higher wages up to
more than 16o. ooo--Oswego IN. II

The Boston Herald finds in the pend
ing reciprocity treaties and in the prop
Dsition to bring Porto Rico into the
American tariff system a convenient
occasion for venting its free-trade
spleen Lapsing into Cobdenite dia-
srfbe, this irreeonciIable protestant
against the facts of history and the
logic of events savageIy assailS the
whole system OF protection to Ameri-
can labor and Industry as the product
Of 1ogrolIing and lobbying Thus:
"A used his influence to secure IA
Fors of b, G, D and E, on the under
standing that these latter were to use
their influence to help him pull certain
rhestnuts out OF the congressional fire,
but under these reciprocal trade treat
les A and 3 think that they are likely
to lose a part of their ilI-gotten spells,
and hence they call upon G, D and E,
and the whole remaining alphabet OF
interests as well, to assist them in de-
tending themselves against this inva-
sion. AS there has to be loyalty be-
tween 1ogrolIers well as honor
among thieves, the others are likely
to respond to this appeal by doing what
they can to defeat the Objectionable
proposition
There you have the typical free trade
conception of an economic system
whose results are the marvel of the
civilized world. The men who sup
piled the information which enabled
congress to frame successful tariff laws
are characterized selfish conspfra-
tors against the general good, and by
fndirection are stamped as thieves
OF course the Boston Herald has a
remedy to propose. 1t is to abolish
protection absolutely and get back to
the platform of free trade pure anc
simple:
I'VE are thus in our policy, both in
ternationa1 and national, the slaves o
these industrial tyrants which tbs
Protective system has built up. APP
parently, the only way that we are tt
relieve ourselves of these "o1d men o
the sea- is to hur1 them from on
shoulders by a sweeping Tariff enact
ment which shall drive every vestig
of Protection out OF our fiscal system
and impose taxes only upon those com
modities from which we hope to OBJ
tain a revenue, and on those at sucl
a point, high or low, seems bes
calculated to bring about the desire

Congressman Hopkins was right l.
contending in his Forum article tina
the Tariff is still a live issue. 1t
true that there are not at present
very large number of Free Trad
propagandists who are so frank an

writer above quoted. There are, how
ever, many who believe as he does, BIT

THE HOUSE WAS HAUNTED.
Wondered unrentabIe by Merry
spirit Of In-Timed Mcr-
rimenf.

A wsl-known local real estate man
lately told Of what he termed "a nervy
display of humor." He rented house
in Diamond street, near the park, TO a
woman and her small family, the wom-
an having declared that she was an
artist. The real estate man, says ehe
Philadelphia Record, had displayed the
sign For sale or rent" on the outside,
and his preferencewas for the former.
However, he consented to lease the
house for year, and in a jiffy had II
fixed up with new appointments OF the
latest improved styles, including
heater, bathtub, range and handsome
chandeliers. The family moved in, and
everything went along smoothly until
two months later, when he received a
letter inclosing thedoor key. The wom-
an wrote that she had moved out be-
cause she could not keep up Che rent.
No previous announcement was made
on account of the lease. Again the
siga was put ON the house. Two women
soon asked to see the house, and were
SA'Nh biiN N.Y. LHN9 lNbuiuCD W lAlt
real estate man, and laughingly said
they did not care to rent the house.
Others looked il over, and also laughed
as they returned the key. One day later
the real estate dealer decided to see
what was so funny, and made "trip to
the house. He soon found out. On dark
brown cardboard signs that hung on
the many improvements he had put in
the house he found reading, in white
paint letters, that was far from pleas .
ing. On the bathGub the sign read:
Enamel peels off," Hanging from the
parlor chandelier was the following in
formation: Lovers delight-no gas
pressure" The cellar heater was la
beled: II require two tons OF coal

a witneau of Waterloo.

Lady Medway has brought to the no
tice of the queen of England the facts
connected with the life of Mrs. Barbara
Moon, Of Rolvenden, Kent, the. only
woman alive who was present at the
battle Of Waterloo, says the London
Chronicle. Mrs. Moon, who is 90 years
of age, was the daughter Of color
sergeant in the Third battalion rife
brigade, who fought in the battles of
Badajos, Salamanca and Waterloo. In
the last named he received his death
wound. Mrs. Moon was then four years
OF age. She remembers leaving the
field OF Waterloo with her mother in
baggage wagon. At the age Of 10 she
could neither read nor write, but she
learned to accomplish both these tasks
at the village Sunday school. Her
majesty has accepted Mrs, Moons pho
tograph, and has sent her contribu-
tion "to assist in making her comfort
able during this somewhat trying sea-
son of the year.

TEACHING A CHILD NUMBERS.
II Is a Mistake to Allow Little Folks
to Count Indiscriminately
when Learning.

1t is unwise to teach the child to run
over the names of numbers without
associating the names with any mean
ing. ''He can count to five--to ten"
boasts some thoughtless parent, when
the baby tongue has repeated the
string of one, two, three, etc. And but
little more useful is the plan now fol-
lowed of having baby count objects,
such as spools or pennies. All this,
says Florence Hull Winterburn, in
Woman's Home Companion, "is artif-
cial training, sure to disappoint our
expectations in the end. For some day
when baby is displaying his little ac-
cOmplishment he makes sad blunders.
He puts five before two; leaves out four
altogether; and when questioned
thinks three is more than six, and
shows utter ignorance of any power
of genuine counting. This is not at
all surprising. The words one. two and
SO on mean absolutely nothing to him
until there kas grown up in his mind
the sense Of quantity. When he re-
alizes the distinction between little
OF thing and more Of 1t, between a
few objects and many Of the same kind.
he is beginning to grasp the great gen
eralization implied in the power Of
measurement. He must get an indef-
mite sense Of the difference between
large masses and small masses. many
objects and small objects, before he
can at all comprehend that there are
definite degrees Of value. Intelligent

1t is amusing TO hear the differ
ent opinions expressed upon the
question of advertising in dull
times. The merchant says, Take
out my ad. l must reduce my ex-
penses. The people have no money
to buy with" The shrewd small
advertiser says, "Now is.my time.
The customer has more time to
read now. He may have less
money to spend, it is true, but he
has the time to read my ad now

can save nickel or a dime" The
fact is, judlcious advertising pays
all the time, whether in good times
or dull times.
