NO REDEMPTION BEYOND THE
 GRAVE

Time is swiftly passing away and will soon know us no more on earth How many, in the last ninety days, have crossed tine dark river and gone to that undiscovered country, from whose bourne no traveller returns! As We live, so must we die. There is no redemption beyond the grave How is it with us today? Have we put on the whole armor of Christ and ma e our calling and election sure? Are we doing our whole duty as Christrians? Do we let our light so shine that others, seeing our good works, glorify our father in Heaven?
 Jesus commanded his desiples to go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, teaching them to lob serve all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, To, 1 am with you always, even unto the end of the world ?
 The same applies to everyone sswho has been redeemed by the blood of Christ. There is work for Us all to do Are we up and doing while it is day? Night will soon overtake us and then our work is done.
 We are travelling from time to eter- nity, and must reap what we SOW. Only a few more days or years and we will be called to render an account of our stewardship in this world. Shall we hear the good and grand applaudit, well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord :" The nearer we do our duty, the nearer We will get to God. 70 sinner, remember, though flair be

SUREsT WAY TO GET
PROTECTION IS BY.
LOW DUTIES
ANDREW CARNEGIE SAYS GER
TAIN TARIFFS SHOULD BE
ABOLIsHED-Is STILL FOR NEG
EssARY PROTECTION.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 26.-Chair-
man Payne. of the ways and means
committee, has made public Andrew
Carnegie's letter in which he declines
TO appear before the committee TO
supplement the statement made by
him In Il magazine.
In his letter Mr.. Carnegie says:
Thanks for your kind invitation to
appear before your committee upon
the pending tariff changes.
Il have served my full term in
Washington upon tariff matters and
beg to be excused from further ser
vice In that direction.
IL am no longer in business and In
my Century article, companion TO that
OF my experience with railway rates
and rebates. | have said all that | have
to say upon the subject. Manufactur-
ers will appear before you from whom
you can obtain required details.
Realizing the comments upon my
article BY various distinguished gen
tlemen in Washington as published in
yesterdays Tribune, | see they have
not yet read the article itself; but only
a few stringing extracts separated
from the context.
that my faith In protection wherever
IT proves to be necessary is as strong
as ever and that | continue to believe
that the surest way to secure needed
protection is to reduce protective du-
ties from time TO time and finally
abolish them when no longer needed.
Pursuing this policy our party has
already reduced duty upon steel rails
nd .ltattA
greater or less degree. The Mckinley
tariff which made great deductions is
II case in point. II would prove false
to its history and its pledges II II fail
ed now.
In the most critical times the pro-
tective policy has received indispensa-
bic aid from patriotic Democrats in
congress as | have shown.
This is as II should be. Duties on
imports should cease to be party
question. Only what is best for our
common cause should be thought Of
II attach supreme importance to the
of present duties upon
Injuries used chiefly by the rich, not
from the protective but from the rev.
enue point of view. Special attention
is required TO the revenue needs of the
country these days to meet increased
expenditure and as far as | know none
can be obtained with so little pressure
upon the people as the two hundred
and odd millions nov coming into the
treasury from such articles
Yours as true protectionist.

ANDREW CARNEGIE"
Chairman Payne has replied TO Mr.
Carnegie's letter expressing regret
that the ironmaster feels unable TO
appear before the committee.
Willis l.. King. of Pittsburg, a steel
man. who testified before the ways
and means committee yesterday, said
he disagreed with Andrew Carnegie's
that the tariff be
abolished on steel. Mr.. King said
Carnegie had been out OF the steel
business for nine years and is not
entirely familiar with conditions.

Reports received from various parts
Of Kennebec county are somewhat
dubious as to the condition of the po-
tato crop in this vicinity. From all
that can be gathered the conditions
are about uniform throughout the
county Of Kennebec and these uniform
conditions are uniformly bad. While
other parts Of the State may be bet
ter off and others Worse off, the con-
dition in this section is not such as to
give any cause Of rejoicing. The en-
tire blame falls on the drouth, which
came at just the time when rain was
needed most. The potatoes which have
been uncovered to ascertain the con-
dition of the crop have proved to be
understood, and Of IAN unhealthy APP
pcarance. Farmers owning and oper-
ating farms Of different soils and in
widely separated LOCALITIES agree that
the crop will be q poor one this year.
