titled to make pleasure for himself at

There have been times when the Christ
mas observance In Richmond was marked
by rcgrotable indulgcnces on the part Of
tho,lghtlcss young men. or lato years,
VIC arc glad to say, matters have I'M
proved much, and wo hope they Will con-
tinlc to improve. Let JOY bo unconfned-
provided only that due regard and respect
hc paid to tho rights and welfare Of mems
bers OF tho community generally:
The police authorities havo al, cxcocd-
ingy difficult part to play at Christmas
They are expected to discriminate,
whom it is not always easy to do so. a
good rule for them to follow is to DO as
lenient as possible to tho children, but
10 keep a tight rein on noisy, frolcsonc
young men. Children can be very exas-
peratlng, too, and can do much mischief
with their firecrackers and tin horns.
Public worship can be easily. disturbed by
them. Horses can be run Oft IN mad
fright, property can be burned, tho ttnid
and sick can be scared out their lives
almost-all by mere children" Right
here the police should be aided by parents
Ind guardians.
Z, However, We are not pleading for a
Christmas with all the ''fun" taken out.
Oh, no; not that, but for q good whole

How the Queen Shops.

Queen Alexandra OF England is one Of
tho largest shoppers In the world, but
she gets very little fun out Of It. For OBJ
vious reasons tho Queen does not go into
the shops and make her purchases as
ordinary mortals do. II she should do 50.
she would be tho observed OF all OBJ
servers, and would be embarrassed no
/ little by tho starcsy 1of ;ssth he { multitude.
Therefore tho Queen does her shopping
at homo. Sl1o notifies the sllopkeepers that
sho is preparing for Christmas, and orders
them to send TO the Palace the choicest
OF their wares. Tho order is obeyed with
out question, and soon a room In Buck
nghum Palace, set apart for that pur-
pose, Is filled with jewelry. silks, bric-a-
bruc and Christmas novelties of all sorts

Nor does the Quean :alloY herself 10 be
troubled by snlcspeopie: : the shopKeepers
display thir wares and then go away: no
ono dares to solicit the Queens patronage.
In the quletude Of tho Palace, without any
statesmen whatever, but only with her
ladies In waiting. the Queen looks over
the choice goods and purchases according
| to her taste.
This sort of shopping has It's advan-
| tagcs TO be sure, but it Is utterly lacking

and a. shopper. she would rather DO a

How different 1t is on this side of the
Atlantic. When our Queen gets ready
for Christmas she goes into tho crowd
and elbows other women, and does exact
ly as other women do. and enjoys herself
as other women enjoy thmselvcs in tho

Tariff and Trusts.

II is explained that the United Statos
steel Corporation has determined to cut
tho wages OF Its employees 90 per cent,

In position where they can offer their
goods for less money without loss. They
will DO enabled to compete moro offec-
lively at homo and abroad with foreign
rivnis. l$J. sy, .t;t
1T does appear to. be tho policy of&tfe
steel Corporation to encourage domestic
indugtry, although It believes strongly In
that policy 80 far as its own interests
nro concerned. 1t is cutting down wages
and lowering tho cost OF production SO
that It may DO in position to SUPPLY
railroads with cheaper stocl.
There is a pitiful exposure Of the pro-
tcctive policy. Tho Steel Corporation Is
tho largest and strongest corporation in
the United states. yet, 1t enjoys the same
protection Of government that. was given
originally to tho "nfant Industries"
which were weak and young. It Is con-
tossed BY this protective Newspaper that
1t would be OF great benefit to the small
manufacturers, and, indirectly, to the
people at largo, at tho United states
Steel Corporation to come down to u
competitive basis with tho foreign man
uiacturers. (. BUTT Is for this giant cor
3poratlon to-. say whether or motif Will
do SO. If there wero no protective tariff,
it would DO compelled to meet foreign
competition. AS there Is protective
tariff, 1t may or 1t may not do 50, as It
elects. 1T expects to cut wages and in
this way sell It's products abroad In cot1-
petition with foreign manufacturers. but
the foreigners will get the benefit Of the
reduced price while Americans will pay
a higher price, and American workmen
will have their pay !, cduccd. Yet the
protcclonlsts tell, the ,worllstEngmlan that
protection is for his benefit, and operates
to keep him out of competition with for
eign workingmcn. 5s.
The whole system IS wrong and fraud
,ulent, aud sooner or later tho American
people will abolish It. We are able TO
compete with the world and It IS to Our
interest to make international trade as
free as possible. .s9, 4
