LAST DITCH PROTECTIONISM.

The cause of protection must be
in its last ditch if it is to stand like
a brute force athwart the path of
reason, international trade, our
own highest self-interest, and
humanity itself. Was there ever
such a confession as that which
Chairman Payne made to the Mas
sachusetts delegation which appear
ed before him to argue for free
hidesg He agreed with them that
"the duty does not protect any
body nor anything, and that not
only is it perfectly useless, but it
Is a burdensOme tax, injurious to
foreign trade; :" yet he would "nOt
take any action to have it removed.
for the simple rerson that it would
be dangerous precedent" This is
surely protection in it's dotage. If
Mr. Payne's idea is correct, pro
lection has become a toothless old
giant, powerless to do anything ex-
cept obstruct the highway. Any
law of which it can truthfully be
said that it is useless, burdensome,
and injurious ought to be repealed
by common consent. All, but we
see in Mr.. Payne's words the kind
of consent which led to the enact
ment of the law. 1t was the strik-
ing of hands by selfish interests;
it was mutual agreement to divide
the spoils That is why it is "dan-
gerous precedent" to take away
any ones part of the plunder. The
danger would be that the whole of
the booty would have to be given
up. This is protection doing its
perfect work this is its nature
fully revealed. But in this very
effrontery of tariff beneficiaries, in
the very steps they are taking to
make protection absurd and hate
full, we see the promise of a speedy
reaction, which will compel the
monopolists to loosen their grasp,
and infiict one more deadly wound
upon fiscal system which is en-
bodied selfishness, the height of
and never more clearly
than now national folly.-N. Y.

UndemoCratic Folly.

Who is to pay the hundreds of

of course. The government cannot
get a dollar except by taking it
from the pocket of the citizen by
taxation. Every citizen, the very
poorest, will have to contribute to
the fund which it is intended to
squander in taking part in the
circus performance which King Ed

himself for having done the British
people the deathless service of being

During the month of March. 10
bankruptcy cases We're brought before
+. J. G. Little. referee for Kennebec

IL in February. The March cases rep
resented a total of s10,403.O1 on the
debit side and 1922 on the credit
side, or a net loss to creditors OF
$9,l11.ol. The net loss for January
was Sl2.122.9S and for February
S5.3f119. In each case the net loss
will be increased somewhat by the ex-
emption of certain assets reported. In
il out of the 13 cases the liabilities
were less than $1,000: in 10, less than
$500 while in 6. almost so per cent. Of
the total number they We're less than
5000. The largest assets reported Were
S1l5, while in two cases they were be
tween slG0 and 5000. and in ten less
than 500. The liabilities in the larg-
est failure footed up to $685.. In the
smallest failure the liabilities were in
excess of assets by s131.SO. The city
of Waterville had a larger number of
bankrupts during January and Feb
ruary than any other places in the

dent to Gardiner which had three.
