PROTECTIVE
TARIFF
SYSTEM
Ernest Augustus HamiIyn Max.
Ing an Investigation Of Its
Operation In This Country.

Chicago Oct. 21.-As representative Of
Joseph Chamberlain, for whom he is in
vestigating the results OF the protective
tariff in the United States, Ernest Au-
gustus Hamlyn. of the Honorable Artil.
lery company OF London reached Chicago
last night.
The results OF Mr. Hamlyns inyestiga-
tions thus far are embodied in prelim-
mary report which he forwarded to Lon
don from Chicago. In II he declares the
commercial greatness OF this country is
due to the tariff, adding that IL would be
the salvation OF England"
Mr.. Hamlyn summarized his report to
Mr.. Chamberlain as follows:
Your protective tariff policy will be
the salvation OF England. The manufact-
urer and tradesinen I have seen during
5000 miles OF travel, while visiting the
trade centers in this country, frankly ad-
init that English tariff will be detrlment
to the continued Industrial prosperity OF
America. They admit that II would be
best for England"
The report concludes with an offer by
Mr. Hamlyn to contribute $500 TO a fund
with which TO bring 10 America one hun
dred English workingmen from 30 manu-
featuring cities to study the effects of a
tarin on the wages and living expenses OF
the working classes.

iHooE tAmfAiGN PAMPHLETS,
Editor Providence News
In view OF the statement which has been
industriously circulated that the pam.
phlet containing articles originally printed
by the New York Evening Post. and re-
feTring to political conditions In Rhode
Island, was prepared and IN being cir
culated In the interests OF one political
party. and that Bishop McVickar. whose
name alone has appeared as responsible
for the publication, has been imposed
upon by designing politicians, IL seems
necessary that some one concerned In the
matter should state frankly the facts.
They are as follows:
Al the time OF the publication OF the
original articles. Bishop Mcvickar, being
desirous OF making the conditions which
they disclosed as widely known 10 the
people of the state as was possible AMI
OF taking the most effective steps 10
change them. requested a numb sr of
gentlemen 90 advise with MIN TO this
end Among those thus invited wers RE
publicans, Democrats, professional men
and business men. The first step decided
upon was the printing and circulation
of certain of these articles In pamphlet
form. The selection or compilation Of the
articles 10 be published was made BY
Professor William MacDonn'i u Brown
university, Mr. William Gammcll and my
self, a subcommittee appointed by sishcp
McNickar.
Bishop McNickar wrote the Introductory
article TO which his name Ia appended.

Nat ,ral Affection of SEALS.

Natural affection of seals Tin their
wild state) is well shown in the follow
ing anecdote: A gentleman living in
Oregon, on the ocean shore, one day
caught in very simple manner a
young seal. 1t had been stranded on
the plank wharf by a receding tide, and
left high and uncomfOrtabiy dry as
well. 1t had not strength to waddle
into the water, and no one to teach it
the tricks of it's tribe. The gentleman
kept the little glossy creature for sew
eral days, and then in pity turned it
into it's native element. 1t came. to the
wharf every night and whimpered SO
that he was obliged to- takeit out again
and keep it in small tank, the seal
giving every demonstration of affec-
ton, after the manner of young dog.

Might Have Been Done for Less.

When Roscoe Conkling first began
the practice Of law in New York he
lost most important murder case on
which he had worked very hard. not
only for the fee, which he needed bad
Iy, but for reputation, which he had
to make. Despite his efforts his client
was hanged. Later, when he presented
his bill to the mans family they re-
fused to pay it on the ground that it
was excessive. He took the bill to
Charles O'Conor, the great criminal
lawyer, asking him to pass judgment
as to equity of his charges. O'ConOr
scanned the account very closely, and
then, turning to Conkling, very grave
ly remarked: ''Well COnkling, taking
into consideration the enormous
amount of energy and time you have
devoted to this case, the charges are
reasonable, but see here, Conkling,
don't you think he could have bee=a

The wild nature of Cherry, the pet

Nest, in Tiffin, O., has at last mani
tested itself. Strangers are no long
er allowed in it's presence, unless one
of the family is near by, and, much
as the owner prizes her pet, she has
decided to dispose of it. Many peo-
pie in different cities will remember
this catamOunt as one of the main at
fractions at the cat shows, where it's
frequent growl made it's attendants
stand in awe. 1t is seldom one of
these ANIMALS is tanned. even when
taken as young as was Cherry. When
wild they are very savage, attacking
their victims with both teeth and
claws.
