THE BLAINE M'kINLEY reel
PROCITY.

Clinton Heraid.-Governor Cummins
advocates a change in some of the
present tariff schedules. He is in ia
yor of reciprocal treaties with Cam
ada and other nations. The stand
patters" in Iowa are criticising him
for advocating reciprocity. of which
Blaine and Mckinley We're able ex-
ponents.
Burlington Hawk Eye.--If the Her.
aid had been more careful reader of
current tariff discussion in the Iowa
republican papers. instead of being
guided by its prejudicas, it would have
noted the fact that the stand pat press
has not antagonized. the reciprocity
of which Blaine and Mckinley We're
able opponents" but rather the per-
version of it by Governor Cunlnins
and his followers. When Mr. Blaine
was secretary Of state the Canadian
government sent commission to
Washington to negotiate another reci-
procity treaty, the former one having
been rescinded because hurtful to the
United States. The Canadians wanted
conditions similar to those which Gov
ernor Cummins now proposes to give
them. Mr.. Blaine refused to negotiate
a treaty on those terms. President
Harrison in reporting it to congress
said: The benefits of an exchange of
natural products would be almost
wholly with the people of Canada" Mr..
Mckinley held to similar views and
said reciprocity must be confined to
on-competitive products; such trade
relations as will not harm American
industries.
There is the whole question in a
nutshell. How does the Clinton Her
aid pretend to justify it's new depar-
ture from republican tenets, by quot
ing Blaine, Mckinley, or any other
prominent republican, except Cover
nor Cummins? Is it not time for that
paper to get back to the true doctrine
as laid down in republican national
platforms, presidential messages and
tariff acts? A.

HAVE DONE RIGHT

NJ There is even greater unanimity
among the republican members OF con-
gress against molesting the present
tariff law this session than there was
"a year ago. This is directly in line
with the will of the people expressed
in most emphatic manner at the
polls last November. Public opinion,
the governing authority of the nation,
has decreed that changes in the tariff
policy Of the United States are not
wanted at this time. They are not
wanted now because there is no neces-
isity therefor and because any such agi-
tation or change would injure the
business and industry of the nation.
The country is now settling down to
a normal basis for the transaction of
business and it would be the height
of folly, to disturb the economic ,condi-
ton at this. time.
The republican party stands today
on the ground which it has long occu.
pied in regard to the economic policy
of the United States. 1t advocates
those policies. which make for the
prosperity of the, country. The protec-
tive tariff law enacted in 1897 has
built up the present prosperity out of
the disaster and restitution caused by
the free trade administration from
1893 to 1897 1t is. making possible
the continuance of that prosperity
which a return to the policy of free
trade would destroy.
Since the Dingley law was adopted
old deserted factories have been re-
opened. new factories have been erect
ed and put into operation, the work
ingmen of the country have been CIV
en- employment at good wages, the
home market has been enlarged CIV
ing the farmers a place to dispose of
ther products at good values. The
prosperity has not been that of fav-
oritism, but has extended Its ,bene-

HOLD ONTO A GOOD THING.

Oskaloosa Herald.-In reviewing his
speech in congress the Register and
Leader says:
Major Lacey quoted John Charl-.
TONS statement at Detroit, The call is
with the United States. Canada has
definitely and deliberately retired from
taking the initiative He might have
gone much further for Mr.. Charlton
did not half state the situation. Cam
ada has not only retired from taking
the initiative, but Canada has fully
decided not to enter into any
trade relations with this country that
are not distinctly to Canada's advan-
tage."
Then why in the name of common
sense should this country wish to
make any agreements that shall in ev-
cry case rebound to the benefit of Can
ada and the disadvantage of the far
mers and manufacturers in this coun-
try. When you have good thing,
hold to it. A bird in the hand is worth
all the reciprocity and other pet the
cries that the Des Moines incubator
can hatch"

WOULD REPuDlATE FREE SILVER

In a recent speech in the house Of
representatives Congressman Williams
of Mississippi, floor leader of the demo-
cratic party, emphatically repudiated
the doctrine Of free silver. To this ex-
tent he has put himself on record as
opposed to the Bryan element of the
party Since the beginning OF the
present session Of congress Mr.. Viii
liams has shown himself to be one Of
the strong men of democracy and his
attitude against the reamrmation of
the silver plank of the Kansas City
platform will doubtless have its influ-
ence.
Mr.. Williams is not alone in this po-
sition. Many of the recognized lead.

same position that it would be folly

Oh, / want to let go.

For more than half a century John
Muir had plunged into the vortex of
human life. He had always been act
i've and was always to be found in the
thick of the fight. He was success,
as measured by the world. While he
did not leave great fortune he spent
every year more than most men are
able to accumulate in a lifetime. He
was envied by many of his fellow be-
ings.
All this came to him, yet, stricken
down in an instant by the grim
reaper, a chance discovery disclosed a
secret, which he living had never re-
,vealed to living mortal. His life, ap-
parently a success to outsiders. had
been to him failure. While appar-
emily free and active his mind, soul
and life had been held in lease by the
desire, ooh, | want to let go!" How
many thousands of men strive for sue
cess, and in their attempt to attain it
lose their nerves, their health and
their happiness? Who could call such
a life success? The man who lives
thus cannot enjoy such an existence,
and when he finally drops out of the
harness, where is he benefited?

The death of John A. Muir, who
spent most of his life in the service of
Coils P. Huntington in the Southern
Pacific railway, has brought to light a
pathetic incident, indicating that his
HE was not as satisfactory as the
world thought. At the time of his
death he was connected with Henry E.
Huntington's street railway system in
Los Angeles. Shortly there
was found in his desk clipping from
some unknown paper yellow with age,
which bore the following poem.
Tagged Out.
I want to let go,
To drop the whole thing,
The worries, the frets,
The sorrows, the sins; :
Just to let myself down
On the bed or the ground
Anywhere so it's down
And let myself go.
And the folks? don't care.
And my business? The same,
Hell and Heaven? Too tired.
/ want to forget,
And | don't want to think
What want to forget.
Just to let down my nerves,
Just too smooth out my brain,
Just to sleep, and that's all.
Please leave me alone
With your pillows and things;
Tisn't that that want!
Nor a doctor nor folks.
just want to let go.

There are persons at the present day
.-and not all old women either-who
believe that killing a robin will bring
bad luck. According to ancient belief
the stormcloud was a huge bird. The
Arabians represented his wings as
measuring 10000 fathoms. This bird
lived on worms, the latter being the
streaks Of lightning accompanying
storms. The Germans remodeled the
fiction by creating the god Thor. whose
bird was the robin. Consequently to
kill a robin first meant death by light
ming, then bad luck.
