King Edwards Ways.

King Edward, it is generally admit
ted, possesses the admirable faculty or
saying the right thing in the right way
in his public utterances. His recent
replies from his throne in st. James
palace to the congratulations of repre-
sentative bodies were tactful and judi
cious, as we'll as characterized by felic-
ity of phrase and a lack of ambiguity.
Long ago the King first eyinced his ca
pacity in this direction. His speeches
have always been distinguished for
their lucidfty and sincerity. His Majes-
ty closely resembles his father III this
respect Though Mcknight forty years
have passed since the death of the
Prince Consort, his addresses might, il
several respects, serve to-day as models
for public speakers. The Speeches and
Addresses of His Royal Highnes5
Prince Albert" were issued in two edi-
tons by the Society of Arts i'll 1887.
No one is fonder of animals than the
King, but he intensely dislkes keeping
those which are neither useful nor orna-
mental, nor even companionable. This
is why the ugly and unsociarie wild
boars have been banished from Wind
sor Great Park, and it is probable that
a herd of Persian goats will also leave
the pleasant surroundings of Gran
bourne chase. At the same time, the
King is very fond of horses and dogs.
His hacks are quite friendly with their
master, and his dogs, generally Scottish
terriers, are given privileges not oftea
accorded to human beings. One Of the
Kings dogs is an ardent yachtsmaD.

A dispatch from DeS Moines, pub
lshed recently in the Minneapolis Jour
nal, reports that from the statement
issued by the Iowa State Auditor CIV
ingareporto of the condition of State and
savings banks in Iowa, it appears that
since the middle of December there
has been an increase in the bank depos
it's in that State of $14, 1888 The
dispatch characterizes this as ''unprec-
edented in the history of the State, and
goes on to say that the total amount ON
deposit in the State and savings banks
of Iowa is SIP. 49,, 2J4, and that during
the last year the increase in the amount
of deposits has been over $21, 100000,
while there has been an increase of
twenty-four in the number of banks
transacting business.
Manifestly there has been no falling
off in Dingley law prosperity in the
State of Iowa. Uncle Horace BOies
may still find it in him to write calam-
ity-breathing articles for the free-trade
syndicate, but his articles will exert as
little influence on the opinion of the
people of his own State as on the opin-
ions of the rest of the people of the
country, and the amount of that infiu-
ence is not startlingly large. Printed
articles holding forth on the disastrous
results which must inevitably come out
of the policy of protection do not carry
very much weight with people whose
pockets are already loaded down with
the abundant fruits of the prosperity
which they owe directly to that same
policy of otectiOn.-EXchange.

Want Hard Times Aea;n

The Ohio Democrats in their State
convention Wednesday declared for the
suppression of the protective tariff
and for tariff for revenue only.
These words have a familiar sound TO
the American people. What a tariff
for revenue means, the present genera
ton has not forgotten. 1t has had one
experience with such a tariff. If is n
declaration of preference for foreign
manufactures and Of war against home
Industries. 1t is in effect a surrender
OF the home market to foreigners.
Six years ago this country was going
through a period of financial staena-

were idle and hundreds of thousands
OF men were out of work. There were

Not a Democrat.

Senator McLaurin has right to feel
complimented by the action Of the
South Carolina Democratic State Com
mittee in voting to fire him out of the
party. Not to be considered a Demo-
crat of the South Carolina type is in
deed an honor. When a man votes for
the industrial and commercial upbuild
ing Of his State they call him a rene
gade and expel him. He cannot do
such things and remain a Democrat in
good standing. That sort of politics
will bear good fruit in the South some
day. The South Carolina Democratic
Committee has furnished precisely the
object lesson needed to illustrate to
progressive, thinking people what n
man must and must not be in order
to be classed as an orthodox Southern
Observation-Disclosures Economist.

there, to go to New York, and bring out
another cargo by way of the Cape Like
a prudent man, he had insured his yes

loss was trivial.
"Ah," he said, on parting with conn

tIemen were sailors instead of soldiers.
I'd take you along with me and make
YOU my first and second officers, and give
YOU an interest in the trade. But If |

Communication was carried on between

womanly impulses, Mrs. Capt. Phelps as
regularly told the young soldiers of the
welfare of the young ladies, as we'll as

letters always contained.
Many weeks passed without any break

Mai. Germon watched them like a
hawk, and he frequently called on them
to perform duties that they might have
refused without any breach of military
discipline; but both Colin Morton and
Robert Bracebridge had pledged them
selves to give the major no shadow OF
cause for complaint, anad so they obeyed
with willingness, if not cheerfulness.
The major still gambled, and Mr.. Keyn-
Odds still won-wOn so much indeed, that
he refused to play longer, for he was
risking his cash, which was valuable,
against the majors honor, Of which ne

Discussing the corn and wheat crops,
one of our free trade contemporaries
here in the city, which can find no con-
ISOLATION in anything except the aboli
ton of tariff duties, has announced it's
conclusion that if we have had any
prosperity in the last few years it has
been due almost entirely to our fine
corn and wheat crops, and that a fail
ure of these crops, or either of them,
would throw us into the old time dis
tress Now, let us look into SONIC facts
and see if that is true,
AS a matter of fact, the total value
of all the corn crops since 1894 has
been $500, 100000 less than for the same
number of years preceding that date.
Likewise the total value of all the
wheat crops has been $20O,O00,O0O less.
For the seven years preceding 1894 the
amount Of money which the farmers
got out of their corn and wheat crops
was almost one billion dollars more
than they got out of the corn and wheat
crops for the next seven years up to and
including 1900. Yet we do not suppose

For Whose Benefit?

Russia does not like our tariff and
therefore, say the tariff thinkers, the
tariff must be changed. Other coun-
tries do not like some provisions of the
law and therefore these must also be
changed. 1t might be worth while to
stop a minute and discuss the question
whether we make our tariffs for the
benefit of other nations or for our own
benefit. If for the benefit of Russia,
Germany and England, we might as
well turn the work of making the tariff
over to them and save the expense of
congressional labor on it. But there is
little prospect that the tariff thinkers
will induce the people to listen to them.
Conditions are pretty Yair now, and
there are not many who want to go
back to Democratic times such as we
had in 1893 to 1S97.-Moline Qll) Dis

Doctrine of Tariff Re formers.

"What the friends of tariff reform
will continue to urge, without regard to
reciprocity treaties,' says the Philadel-
phia Record, lis such reduction Of du-
ties on imports as is obviously demand
ed, by the interests alike of American
consumers and producers. The official
returns of commerce have shown for
years just what protective duties might
reduced or wholly repealed without any
disturbance to American industries"
What the tariff reformers have hereto
fore is urged that all protective duties
are pernicious and immoral and ought to
be wholly repealed without regard to the
effect of American industries. This is
one reason why the country became
panic stricken when the tariff reform
ers got into power in 1898, and why the
country has shown an eagerness to
keep them out of power since that time.
