Prairie du Chen Union: The
true patriotism of today, like that of
the days of the civil war, is that
which reckons logically with the
internal forces which are periodical
" convulsing our industrial system.
The constantly recurring disagree
ments between capital and labor are
but the surface indications of wide
spread industrial condition. The
solution will not be aided by remov-
ing the government one step farther
from its source of dignity and power

Hon. c. II. Baxter, Lancaster: i
must say that Congressman Bah
cocks position on the tariff ques-
ton is a rational and common sense
one and meets with my endorse
ment. When infant industries be-
come gigantic monopolies the swad-
ding clothes ought to be removed
and they be made to stand on their
own feet.

II was the third day out. The sky
was cloudless and the sun was throw

rows Of passengers in steamer chairs
and rugs on the deck. Mrs Goddard
and her companion sat side by side, An

felt like crying. too, and but for the
smiling countenance he adored he
might have done so. He was the last
10 leave the pier. When the Cleopatra
had vanished from sight he started
nomeward. The difference between
his condition and that Of his wife was
that she felt as il she were Just en-
tering q state of freedom, while he
had sold himself into bondage, Of
body and soul.
1t was five o'clock in the afternoon
when he reached Lyndhurst. He
heard Blanche singing as she sat at
the piano in the drawing-room. and
when he went in he saw Miss Dean
and Ta,ley standing near her. They
Ill came towards him.
1--WE have been waiting tea for YOU,
Mai. Goddard" said Miss Dean, giving
him her hand; land we have planned
not to allow You to get blue, haven't
we, Blanche"
His ward nodded, her eyes on his
face, but she did not speak.
II thank you." he said, smiling;
"but not-not yet. Later 7 shall Join
you, but / am going to my room just
now 1t is good of you to come to us,
Miss Dean"
Pint, really. won't you have one
cup?" pleaded Blanche, all tenderness
and sympathy.
"Not this afternoon, dear" and he
turned from the room
"Oh. isn't he splendid?" exclaimed
Miss Dean. when he had left the room.
HE is one man that rouses the best
emotions that are in me. / could love
Am unmarried man like that
She was speaking to Blanche, but
our heroine had gone to the table and
was pouring a cup of tea.
"You take two humps, Lottie. I be
lieve,' she said, in a voice in which
there was hint of unsteadiness.
Mrs. Goddard stood by her accom-
plice and waved her handkerchief un.
til she was tired. Then she said:
"Do you think he can distinguish
me in crowd at this distance, Lucy?
81 think not" answered Mrs. Nolan
indifferently. "My sight is good, and
