Unoonsciously Apropos.

A neighboring Episcopalian church
was divided into two factions, one
favoring the high church and the
other the low church views. The high
church faction wanted to introduce
vases and other symbols, and with a
view to having these adopted pur-
chased a set of vases which was plac-
ed in the altar.
In some way this set mysteriously
disappeared. OF course those who
had purchased it were strong in the
belief that the other faction had stOl-
en- it. The other faction was as mucA
mystified over the affair as the own
RS. At this juncture a well-known
clergyman Of New York was invited
to occupy the pulpit, and consented
to of1ciate on a certain Sunday.
Imagine the surprise of the congre-
cation when he announced as his text.
my house shall be called a house of
prayer, but We have made it den of
thieves" He was entertainer by the
high church party, and on the way
home one of the members told him of
the incident and of the surprise over
the text he had used, and all joined
In hearty laugh over the occurrence.

THE DANGER OF RECIPROCITY.
Charlotte News.)

The retaliatory tariff levied against the
United States by Russia, when Secretary
Gage placed the differential duty upon
sugar, has opened the eyes of the Ameri-
can people to the dangers of reciprocity
Reciprocity. like the Sherman act, for
the purchase of silver, was a makeshift
wrapped in the garb of political cow
ardice
When it was demonstrated that the
Mckinley tariff law would pass both
houses of Congress, the late James G..
Blaine was in one of the committee rooms
at the capitol at Washington.
That far-seeing politician, realizing the
detrimental effect, that the proposed
prohibitory tariff would have upon our
foreign commerce, lost his temper and in
a towering rage, sent word to the Repub-
lican leaders, in the House that "by
your snivelling idiocy you will wreck the
Republican party"
He knew that the cry of home markets
was a farce, and finally prevailed upon
the leaders to attack the treciDrocity
clause to the Mckinley tariff bill.
This clause of the Mckinley bill was
and is direct violation of the Constitu-
ton, for it places in the hands of the
President and his Secretary of State, a
POWER that was originally intended for
Congress alone to exercise.
The Constitution clearly states that
Congress is the nue-creating branch
of the government, but through the re-
ciprocity clause. that power is trans
ferred to the executive.
Under this clause the tariff acts origi-
mating in the House and duly enacted in
TO law according to the Constitution, can
be set aside by the executive department
of the government, whenever it sees fit
TO do so.
Our schedules of tariff can be changed
and new ones formulated, by the State
Department. to suit the taste or demands
of the various foreign countries, with
which the President may see fit to treat
Through the power given by the recipro-
city clause the State Department may
concoct tariff laws to suit its fancy.
How detrimental this power may prove
is demonstrated in Mr.. Cages attitude
towards Russia, wherein he, at the behest
of the sugar trust, placed the differential
duty on sugar, and caused Russia to re-
tallate to the great detriment of numer-
Gus American industries.
To show the effect that Mr.. Cages at
titude had upon American products ex-
ported to Russia only few figures are
necessary.
Commencing with March 1st, Russia
increased her duties on American pro-
ducts as follows:

NO LONGER a GRAVEYARD.
The Government Has Provided Lightship at
Cape Hatteras.
Washington Starr


Sailors say that there are two grave
yards in the Atlantic, ono off Sable Is
land and the other at Cape IIatteras.
The wrecks that strew the sea bottom
around the little piece of land between
the Grand Banks and the mainland are
mostly caused by the dense fogs that
Prevail most of the year, misleading skip
pers westward and eastward bound until
too late they and themselves. upon the
rocks. Fog is only a lesser peril Of the
IIatteras weather. The cape is known
the seven seas over as the worst of
storm centres. The fury of it's winds, the
sweep of its terrible cross-seas and the
treachery of it's lurking shoals are by
word in the mouth of every deep-sea sail
or. 1t is here that the government has
just set the new and powerful lightship
No. y, stanchest of its kind, to warn ships
from the invisible perils Of the coast.
No. 72 is III feet in length, and quite
shallow, being about 20 feet in depth. The
hull, made of the best steel, is divided
into five watertight compartments by
bulkheads of the same material, so that
il the water should fill three of these
the other two would keep her afloat.
Partly to strengthen her hull she is
as strongly as those of warship, in or
der to resist the tremendous strain when
rocking in the waves. hTe qarters for
the captain, officers and crew are on the
main deck, while the coal bunkers and
ether supplies are below. AS the officers
and men must remain sometimes for five
and six weeks without seeing any one or
being relieved, the government has tried
to make their surroundings as home like
rs possible.
Steam heat and electric lights are pro-
vided in each cabin and the furniture,
carpets and fittings would be a credit to
mansion. The ship is equipped with
refrgerating apparatus, and has also q
Plant for distillng water so that an
ample supply of ice can be maintained in
the summer months as well as an album
dance of pure water.
To hold the lightship on her station
powerful apparatus was provided She
has what is known as harbor. anchor
weighing 1000 pounds, large enough for
an ordinary liner. This is connected by
a chain whose links are 1k inches thick,
calculated to stand strain of 70 900
pounds. Besides the harbor anchor,
there is what is known as a kedge an
Choir weighing $50 pounds. which works
as sort of steering gear to keep the
vessel head on to the waves in heavy
storm. In order TO give her plenty Of
room to ride the waves, 100 feet of an
Choir chain is provided The anchors
are raised and lowered entirely by steam
the ship being equipped with special
engines. Electricity furnishes the illum-
iuation for the lanters which are ar
ranged upon two steel masts at a height
of fifty feet above water line. Each mast

In addition to this there was added from

The real danger of the Republican
policy of reciprocity is here displayed,
1t proves that there is too much power
given to the executive department, ana
virtually puts the power in their hands
! to make or unmake the revenue prodac
ing branch Of our government.
If our great industrial enterprises ARE
so solieitous about the possibility of is
turbing our tariff laws why do they not
raise objections to, this arbitrary power
placed in the hands of the executive?
1t is true that the executive has it in
his power to change the entire tariff
laws and to take from the House of Rep
resentatives it's constitutional right to
and the duty of initiating revenue laws
| as we'll as robbing the Congress of its
constitutional duty of regulating COM
| mercc.
Perhaps Mr. Babcock has realized this
danger and hopes to save his party from
| the wrath 10 come.
| We believe, however. that the people
will not be gulled by this new move, and
| will realize that the only path of duty
| lies along the lines of a tariff for reve-
nue. only, as taught by tho Democratic
| party from it's birth.
The dangers of reciprocity are more
apparent every day, and so much power
should not be placed in the hands of tht
executive branch of our government. i
