at all disturbed by the project Of Earl
GREY and the favorable consideration
given TO the experiment by the phi
losophers of the City Club. A few sa-
looms, relatively, may be established
on his philanthropic principles, but
their competition with those run on
purely business PRINCIPLES, or for the
distinct purpose of making money.
and with the consequent incentive Of
elf-interest to attract and crafty the
popular taste and demand, can never
be more than insignificant. If the liquor
saloon is ever made blessing instead
Of curse the transformation will
have TO come from the discovery by
the dealers themselves that it is desira-
BILE or necessary as a matter of business
policy. Philanthropy and the liquor
trade, and any trading. for that matter,
are not practicable partners.
Earl GREY deserves credit for his
motives, but he has contributed nothing
toward the better settlement of the
saloon question, though in very limi-
ted sphere his plan may work success

No House OF Cards.

The political economy Of the United
States has created and maintained many
industries. But Protection was under
taken for the benefit Of the nation as a
whole, and never will be upheld for any
other purpose.
It il inconcevable. therefore, that
any single industry will be permitted
TO thwart national policy so important
as the Americanization of what was
formerly European territory on this
side of the Atlantic Readjustment of
our relations with Cuba must como as
matter OF course.
Neither is il possible to imagine that
a single industry upon which the read
justment may bear with special severity
will be permitted, in the spirit of retail
iation, to tear down the Protection
house. That is not made Of cards. to be
toppled over by the blow Of any angry
tenant that may be sheltered therein.
