and extraordinary prosperity has al
ways accompanies tariff legislation by
the Republican party. If the present
tariff. which has been in existence for
ten years a period longer than has
marked the existence of any previous
tariff law, is to be revised, 1t would
seem evident that such revision should
be made by the party which has con
sistently favored the protective princi
pie The revision should be made as
promptly as possible and with as lit
tie disturbance to business conditions
as possible.
Already committees of the house
and senate are at work on the subject
and it is hoped that the revision Is
being largely discounted in manufact.
uring and business circles. On the
other hand a revision by the Demo
cratic party must inevitably mean rev.
olution and disaster. The Democratic
platform declares in favor of imme
diate revision of the tariff by the re.
duction of import duties and generally
states that gradual reductions should
be made in such schedules as may be
necessary to restore the tariff to a
revenue basis. This practically
amounts to a declaration in favor OF
free trade.
"On the other hand the Republican
party declares unequivocally for re.
vision of the tariff by special session
of congress Immediately following the
Inauguration of the next president and
affirms emphatically that in all tariff
legislation the true principle of pro-
lection is best maintained by the i'm.
position of such duties as will equal
the difference between the cost of pro-
duction at home and abroad, together
with a reasonable profit to American
industries.
The Democratic party utterly ig-
nores any reference TO the welfare OF
American labor while the Republican
party in its platform specifically de-
clares that it's aim and purpose is not
only to preserve security against for
eign competition, to which American
manufacturers, farmers and producers
are entitled, but also to maintain the
high standard of living Of the wage
earners of this country, who are the
most direct benefciaries of the pro.
tective system"

An Ancient Firearm.
From the Pail Mall Gazette.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
An interesting discovery has just been
made in Winchester. 1t consists of a cor
roded wrought iron implement which Is
composed of two iron tubes. the inner one
of which projects about five-eighths of an
inch beyond the outer one at the top. The
outer tube is lap welded and appears to
have been shrunk on to the inner one.
The bottom is closed and fiat, and on one
side is a strong hook or catch. while at
distance of about an inch from the
lower end is a hole which perforates both
tubes.
There can be no doubt that this imple-
ment Is q very early form of firearm. In
his Arms and ArmOr'' Boutell says: I'm
the first instance this weapon. the gun and
pistol is not distinguished by any pc
culiar qualities or characteristics of its
own from the cannon-the gun first ap-
pears simply as small cannon. AS there
was culverin which was fixed in a kind
of carriage, so also there was a culverin
which was fixed in a mans arms-in fact
a hand cufverin. Such weapons as these
were in use at the end of the fourteenth
century" The example now described is
a small cannon pure and simple and was
no doubt bound to piece of wood by
bands Of iron or some other material.
The inner tube Is much worn away and
the weapon evidently in its time saw
great deal of use.
