from hauling coal by refusing to mine it,
and the public has no remedy The present
situation in Chicago illustrates even more
strkingly the privilege OF labor unions TO
infict wholesale damage on property and
business without mourning any liability.
The union Of freight handlers, striking for
a small increase of wages after having
three months. has succeeded in bringing
on sympathetic strikes by other unions
which have crippled business to an extent
almost unheard Of and caused great loss of
property. Yesterdays dispatches said that
tons OF perishable matter were rotting on
railroad tracks and in the freight houses.
Freight handlers would not touch it, team
sters would not haul it, and ice delivery
drivers would not bring ice to save it from
destruction. Carloads of fruit consigned
through Chicago 10 other cities were left
there to rot. Immense loss had occurred in
butter. cheese. eggs and all perishable
goods. The railroads, responsible as COM
mon carriers to the public and TO shippers
and consignees, were ready to receive and
able TO handle freight, and if they refused
or failed to do so through their own neglect
or wrong they could be sued and held in
damages But this paralysis of trade and
loss of property was caused by organlza-
tions which, not being incorporated, have
no legal existence and are irresponsible
Railroads and express companies are re-
sponsible for the prompt delivery of perish
able goods. and may be held in damages
for failure to do so, but their employees
may arrest transportation and laugh at the
sufferers. There is no trust in the country
that enjoys this privilege because they are
all incorporated and are answerable under
the laws for their acts. The franchise of
responsibility is the greatest franchise
of all

MIR. CLEVELAND ON THE TARIFF.

The Hartford Comm Times in an attempt
to explain the cause of the hostility of
Colonel Watterson to ex-President Cleve-
land, discloses an important secret If it is
true Mr.. Watterson. says the Times, was
at the Chicago convention in 1892 for the
purpose of defeating the nomination of Mr..
Cleveland. He did not draw the Cleveland
men into a controversy. The platform, as
reported, the Hartford paper says, was
such a platform as Mr. Cleveland wished.
On the tariff question the expression was
vague. Mr.. Watterson, as the maker of
the phrase, ''robber tariff baron was in
favor of a declaration for out-and-out free
trade When the platform was reported
Mr. Watterson and few other free-traders
demanded the substitution of an out-and-
out revenue plank for that of the COM
mittee He offered, and after debate the
convention substituted the WattersOn
declaration of "a tariff for revenue only"
This, says the Times, was not what Mr..
Cleveland and the Eastern Democrats
wanted In their CONSERVATION some of the
Eastern delegates went to Mr.. Whitney,
who was the manager of the Cleveland
candidacy, and urged him to do something
to prevent the Watterson substitution. Mr..
Whitney declined. saying, ''let them pass
it; it will make no difference; Mr.. Cleve-
land is his own platform
This bit of recollection is of no conse-
quence in itself except that from that time
until the present, when the Democratic
conventions in most States have had a
word to say about the tariff in their plat
forms, they have Endorsed the declaration
of Mr. Watterson-"a tariff for revenue
only'-assuming that it is the proper
Democratic declaration of faith The
Wattersonian expression became a part of
the platform of the last Democratic con-
vention in this State. The United States
has never had such a tariff, the Wilson
bill before it was manipulated by the DEM
ocrats in the Senate, led by Mr.. German,
being tariff based upon incidental pro-
lection, but utterly inadequate so far as
the leading industries were concerned. Mr..
German had the iron and steel schedules
changed so that the duties imposed were
nearly the same as those Of the present
law. 1t this State. however, the De-
mocracy for this campaign, in which it is
announced that the tariff will be made a
leading issue, must fight for "a tariff for
revenue only" To be true to their avowal
the leaders must oppose a tariff on any
article that will give even incidental pro-
lection. If held to their platform the
orators will find the tariff for revenue
only a very embarrassing affair on the
stump.

The RusseIls in Chicago.

This story. by Emily Wheaton, contains
pictures OF life in Chicago which are cal
culated TO interest those who think them
true to life and 10 amuse those who
will recognize them as caricatures. The
story has not much plot. and its plan is
very simple. 1t relates the experiences of
a Boston married couple, cultured anc
well-to-do people, conservative. convention
al and aristocratic. who went 10 Chicago
to live. The husband, a young lawyer
knew something of the city and liked It,
but the young wife prepared to be
Mortified and Disguised with everything
Their experiences with hotel life, club life,
social life, housekeeping, society, etc, fur
nish material for a passably clever story
The young wife becomes partially es-
tranged from her husband by reason of
her refusal TO adapt herself to her en-
vironments, but this incident has a happy
conclusion and the story ends by her be-
coming enamored with the West and de-
claring: Dear, dirty, beautiful Chicago,
splendid in your youthful strength, love
YOU and this is home forever The story
first appeared as a serial in the Ladies'
Home Journal and is published In book

The kindred of the Wild.

Animal stories an one form or another are
as old as the beginning of literature, and
no doubt they preceded the earliest at
tempts at literature. for animals must have
played an important part in the life-drama
of primitive man and furnished large ma
terial for his thoughts and narratives. And
they have always been a subject OF inter
esting and instructive study, both TO
their points of difference from human be
ings and their points of resemblance This
study has gone on until, as far as mental
intelligence is concerned. the gulf dividing
the lowest of the human species from the
highest of the animals has been reduced
TO a very narrow psychological boundary.
The animal stories contained in this vol
ume THE Kindred of the Wild" by
Charles c. u. Roberts, are not mere stories
of adventure. They treat Of the psychology
OF animal life and OF their personality,
their individuality and their mentality. In
this respect they introduce the reader to
q new world and a wider life by opening
his eyes to the kinship of all animated ma
ture. The stories, twelve in number, are
notably well written and are characterized
by peculiar originality and interest, as
might be expected of the author of that
other charming book, THE Forest Lovers"
The illustrations are numerous and strong.

A Way of Escape.

Margaret Todd, NJ. D., or. as she writes
herself, Graham Travers," author of this
book is evidently deeply imbued with the
pUritanic sentiment which forbids a sinner
ever to forget his sin, no matter how deep
ly he may repent or how free from offense
is his later life, and which encourages a
tenderness of conscience which would pre-
vent a concealment OF the sin should any
one suspect and charge the offender with it.
The truth at all hazards, and at Whatever
cost, even to those innocently involved
seems to be the central idea sought TO be
conveyed by this tale. 1t would be more cor
rect TO say, perhaps, that to the author
mind this rigid rule applies only TO women
for in the instance under consideration
the man who is an equal, if not a greater
sinner than the woman is not called upon
TO confess in the market place his early in
