A Married Mans MUSINGS.

All the worlds a stage, and most o;

women.
1t makes a woman sour to have to
wait 10 years for chance to say:
This is so sudden
An old maid finds it very hard to be
friendly with widow who's had -four
husbands.
When an old bachelor dreams he's
married. and an old maid dreams she's
never going to be, each talks the next
morning about the dreadful night
mare they had.
1t is not on record but it is probable
that when Noah told his wife it was
going to rain for 40 days, she began to
throw out hints about how dreadfully
questionable her old macintosh was.
The day he's married a fellow is 80
happy he says it must be all a dream:
year later he wishes somebody would
come along and wake him up.

Most people who embark on the sea
Of matrimony get seasick before the
voyage is half over.
When they get engaged the girl re-
CARDS him as the light of her existence.
After they get married the light begins
to go out nights.
Since brevity is the soul of wit, mar
ried men ought to feel funny. They
are generally short.
Like most men nowadays, Adam
went into matrimony with his eyes
shut.
One reason Eve got out of the Gar
den so quickly was that she didn't have
to wait to dress.
When he talks in his sleep is about
the only time a fellow can get his

Our Next ROYAL Visitor.

Our next royal visitor of distinction
Will be the crown prince of Siam and
he is coming in September. He viii
not be given any Prince Henry kind of
time but hospitable welcome awaits
him and ne will be afforded fine op-
pOrtunity to see something of the
greatest country on earth. Incident
ally his visit will cause general
brushing up on Asiatic geography and
lots of we'll informed Americans will
suddenly realize that they know little
or nothing about the little kingdom
over which this young man will some
day reign.
And Siam isn't such a very little
kingdom, after all. In size it is almost
equal to the great state of Texas and
it's population is twice as large as that
of Texas. And what is it's capital?
Probably not one in hundred of the
Journals readers could name the city.
1t is Bangkok and it is as large as
Washington. The language, laws and
customs of Siam are it's own, though
it was for centuries under Chinese in
fuence. The scale Of civilization is
not very high-there is little education
slavery prevails, and Buddhism is the
religion where there is any-but in re-
cent years decidedly progressive steps
have been taken. The French have
been establishing a sphere of infiu-
ence" over part of the original terri
tory; the courts have been recognized
by Belgian lawyers, the legal code is
being shaped by a japanese lawyer.
the finances, police and educational de-
partments are in English hands, and a
number of Europeans are employed in
administrative positions in other de-
partments. Siam possesses one adj
nations may envy. 1t has no public
debt.
The visit of the crown prince is not
official nor does it have commercial
bearings, being merely educative. We
hope the young man will get a good
impression of the country. 1t will
make it easier for this country to have
part in the development and modern
ization of Siam. At present the trade
of Siam is comparatively insignificant.
the exports amounting to something
over $15,000,O0O and the imports to
about $13,0O0,000. American trade
does not rise beyond few score thou
sands, but with the development of the
country there will be a fair opening
for American enterprise and goods and
they may want few railroads built
over there.

KipIinu and His Neiuhbors.

The best friends of Rudyard Kipling
are evidently those who read his stories
and poems and do not come in contact
with the man himself He doubtless
has his good points, lots of them, and
is probably jolly good fellow at times
but he seems to have the faculty Of
keeping in constant stew with his
neighbors. 1t was so in India; it was
so in Vermont. and now it is so in Eng
land. 1t seems improbable that it is
always the fault of the neighbors
When he was tired of India he came To
America. the home of his wife, and
built a fantastic bungalo on an old
farm just out of Brattleboro. Vermont.
He expected to have dignified
and independent literary seclu-
sion. After he had been there
a While the Brattleboro people voted
unanimously that his coachman seemed
found that the inhabitants of the ''pie
belt" as he called the section, We're too
curious and intrusive to suit him.
Moreover. he had an unhappy row
with his brother-in-law.
So he moved to England and estab-
lished home in the village of Rotting-
dean. near Brighton. All was well for
q time and the village seemed to APP
preciate the proximity of genius. But
it had an awakening, or several of
them. There was trouble over drill
hall. and then more trouble because he
defended his aunt for hanging out a
pro- Boer flag. He had row with this
neighbor and that, and now he has
folded his tent and departed for an
other section of England, on the quiet
border land between Kent and Sussex.
We hope there are no neighbors within
a league, that no relatives will estab-
fish themselves in that vicinity. and
that he will be able to give the world
some such literary productions as came
from his pen in earlier years before
vexatious neighbors put him i'll a mood
to write only trash.

The Tariff and the Trusts,

A reader of the Journal, evidently a
Democrat, who listened to Bryan when
he visited this city, writes us an
anonymous letter in relation to our ed
itorial utterance of yesterday morning
in relation to the coal strike. He says:
"If the tariff We're removed from coal
the operators could not combine to
prolong the strike and thus keep up
the price to their own profit. 1t is
only one of many examples of the way
in which the Republican tariff fosters
trusts and monopolies."
This is rich, very rich, AS there is
no tariff on anthracite coal the utter
absurdity of our unknown friends ar
gument is at once apparent. He has
fallen into a common Democratic delu-
sion, which is encouraged by Bryan
and men~of his stamp and tries to
blame the tariff for every combination
of capital or trust which exists This
anthracite coal combine is one
of the most absolute monopolies
known, and yet there is not one cent
of tariff duty on anthracite coal. There
is no tariff on petroleum, and yet the
Standard Oil company is the creates;
trust in the United States. How can
n reduction of the tariff possibly affect
these concerns? There is no relation
whatever between the Republican pol
icy of protection and the great trusts
trade country of the world, is pas-
tered with trusts.
The tariff smashers will have to
guess again. The tariff is not perfect,
but the trust problem will never be
settled by an indiscrminate slashing
of import duties. That a great meas
prosperity in the past few years is due
to the policy of protection as exempli-
fled in the Dingley law. cannot sue
cessfully be disputed. Our working
people appreciate the difference be-
tween these times and the days of the
Wilson bill. Then there was no work:
now there is work for all at good
wages. Then savings bank deposits
were decreasing; in the whole country
they decreased S37.000.000 in 1S93-94.
The estimated savings banks deposits
of the country for July l are more than
$2.750, 900. 000-an increase since 1894
of more than n billion dollars. The
protective tariff fosters trusts in the
sense that it makes good times, in
creases business. gives confidence and
stimulates commerce. Uuder a free
trade or low tariff policy there would
doubtless be fewer trusts: there
would also be fewer men at work, few
er dollars in the savings banks, fewer
business opportunities. fewer busy fac
tories, and, after a brief and unhappy
experience. fewer tariff smashers in
the country. II is good policy to
keep on letting well enough alone.
