PLUMBERS TIE FARMER.
Policy of Protection Places a Heavy
burden ON His Shom:elera.


The policy OF protection las, from
the beginning OF our government, been
a burden, and heavy one, upon the
farmer. 1t is n pity that our farmers,
who are the backbone OF protection to-
day, could not read and learn the les
sons Of history. What Congressman
Smith of South Carolina SAID in our
first congress. In 1850, is as true today
as it was then. lie said:
at has been said, and Justly said, sir,
that the states which adopted the con-
stitation expected its administration
would be conducted with favorable
band. The manufacturing states
wished the encoura cement Of manu-
features, the maritime states the en-
enlargement OF shipbuiid.nE and the
agricultural states tie encouragement
Of agriculture. We have laid heavy
duties upon foreign goods to encour-
age domestic manufactures, we are
now about to lay tonnage duty for
the encouragement Of commerce, but
has any one step been taken to en-.
courage the agricultural states? So
far from it that all that has been dOue
operates against their interest, every
duty we have laid will be heavily felt
by South Carolina, while nothing has
been done to assist or even encourage
her or her agriculture"

But one Of Corse's officers caught

SPORTS
BARNEY JOY HAS
REAL HARD LUCK
BRAND OF BALL DISHED UP BY
THE HONOLULU sPEED-BURNER
SHOULD HAVE WON GAME.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 19-Barney
JOY is the original hard-luck kid. Yes
terday he lost his game through t
temporary slump in the seventh in
ming, and was also helped along in his
desire to establish a straight string OF
lost games by the Seals behind him,
who, after practically having the game
sewed inside their vest pockets, play
ed ball of the town-lot variety and let
the Angels get away with the long
end of the score. In the very first
inning the Seals started off with a
whizz. Moriarity laid own a nice hit
to center Williams followed with a
Texas Lacquer to the same spot.
Shaughnessy then saw his chance and
responded with a resounding whacK
over second. Moriarity ambled home,
but Williams stepped on his own feet
on the way around and so arrived at
the pan about two seconds after the
ball.
The Seals brought over another in
the very next inning, and it looked all
San Francisco. But wait, my child.
This is where the part played by the
Angels is introduced Turn the lights
low and give us a few strains of that
sobby give muh back nah cheild"
music. For it really was a painful
event, to lose a game through such
dummy playing. In the fifth the An
gels brought over one, and so it went
until the last spasm. Then the An
gels got down to business, and by
playing the right sort of ball sent
across enough TALES to win the game.
Observation-Disclosures 2NNNNNNN
either of these capacities, or in an en-
tirely unofficial capacity. In either
event the form of the reception must be
made to conform. The flag which the
Monmouth will display will advise the
local officers on this matter
1t is understood that the fireworks
demonstration to be given the prince
| by his fellow countrymen will be one
of the most notable elaborate things
of the kind ever seen here; while the
lantern parade on the evening of the
Bird of July, will be an event charac-
teristically Japanese, and of especial
interest to Americans.
