AN ILLOGICAL IDEA.
Republican National Ticket.
Free trade between nations is the
most illogical Men, ever advanced by
political economists. It absolutely
goes on the assumption that a thing
made in a foreign country should be
exempt from taxation, while home
products are taxed. It must be ap
parent to the most superficial ob
server that no manufactory in this
country can be conducted without
bearing Its portion of the burden of
national, state, city and count'
taxation. Yet in spite of this fact
the free traders insist that the
English, French, Germans and
others should be permitted to land
their manufactured goods in tills
country without paying taxes.
There never was a more absurd
proposition advanced. It is so
utterly ridiculous it may be safely
predicted that hi a very few years
the idea of free international trade
in competitive articles will be looked
upon with much derision.

Salt Lake City, Utah, three widows

lui: great men of this age do not
seem to be b.'cst-cri with very good
health. The young emperor of
Germany Is far from robust; the
young king of Spain Is down with
eliohra infantum, and the writer Is
rather indispod.
Tin: campaign Is lively beyond all
precedent in Indiana. The Indian
apolis Journal says that if a notice
is posted on a trea in the heart of the
woods, "there is to bo speaking
here," within live hour a large
audience will bo gathered in almost
any part of the state.
The concluding sentence in the
profneo to (Jen. Sherlihin's Memoirs
isiis follews: "Respectfully dedicat
ing this work to my comrades lit
arms during the war of the rebellion,
I leave It as a heritage to my
children and as a source of informa
tion for tho future historian."
A HMiPMi'.NTof tho K'uson's hops
him already reached London from
this coast. Other shipments are on
tlin Atlantic, and yet others are
eroding the continent. Theplckers
have made unusual wages, and the
money from the crop has already
begun to lloat. The fact Is that hops
in this region mlo much else besides
yeast.
Tins United State Is tho greatest
and most prosperous nation on the
face of the globe. It was made so
by tho jHilley of protection, which
taught tho people that no cectlon of
the union could benefit without
every other section deriving an
advantage. Krvo traders, on tho
other hand, have Invariably ap
pealed to sectional Jealousies. Had
they continued to maintain their
hold on allhlrs the country would
have been In tho same slough of In
dus'iinl despond out of which it was
lifted by the protective tarill'of 1S01.
Mil. Ui.iiVKt.AXt In his December
mcMMgo told us that protection Is
"a bunion ujKm tlioo with moderate
moMiiti and tho poor, the employed
and tho unemployed, the sick and
well and the young and old, and
that It coustltiiturt u tax which with
ivleiittanH kP 1 fastened upon

An incident recently occurrinir
during a Chinese trial at lUtchllcld,
H. C, is reported in the Victoria
Colonist. A Chincio witness who
was examined for the second time as
to his knowledge in u murder case,
was sworn after cutting oil a cock's
head, the form of solemnity observed
in such cases, gave evidence which
varied materially from what he had
before given. On being taxed by
the judge with the inconsistency
ufter being so sworn mid asked for
the reason, he placed his two hands
on the table before him, grew ashy
pale and gradually doubled up, till
he sank at full length on the iloor
and was carried out insensible.
"Ah," said u Chinese merchant
near, "that man tell big lie over the
cock's head tuid the blood. He die
in one month orslx week. Nomore
Chinaman tell lie over cock's head
in Cariboo. Flse he very riuick die.
Chinaman sabbec."
Whatever the reason, this witness
has been sinking steadily over since,
and the superstitious Celestials ex
peel his death within the month or
six weeks as an absolute certainty,
and quote another similar case of
false evidence over tho cock's head,
followed by tho witness's death
within the month, some two or
three years ago.

Capt. Al. Ilartis, of the life saving
service, got buck Tuesday, from u
visit to tho white settlements. He
has taken a run through Xew York,
and says In Pennsylvania, noithern
and western New York state the
people are wild on politics. Every
old farmer has a piece of bunting on
his house or fence, and all that
dipt. Harris saw say that they will
vote for Harrison and protection. A
good many told him that In Novem
ber, '81, eleellon day was wet and
they didn't bother about going to
tho polls, because they were sure
Rlalne would bo elccled anyhow,
but this year they were going to
turn out to a man and get In a vote
for Harrison, if it took a leg. Tho
New York democrats are very con
lltloni anil will slap up money to
cover any proposed bet on Harrison.
In Indiana the people rro plumb
crazy. Tho wholostuto Is a political
battlefield and both parties are mov

My Ship Comet In.
NcHth fummer'H run and Winter's blast
While the lone years swept slowly past,
I waited, looking out to sen,
Kor sure my ship would come to me.
Ah, sure! For with this morning's sun
My clad heart heard her signal gun,
And safely down the sheltering bay
I hnw my ship come In to-day.
And then I learned that she had been
Klcvcn weeks In quarantine.
While yellow fever sunk the crew
Deep in ns complementary blue.
And long before, while tempest tossed,
Her masts and rigging had been lost.
And then the crew, a frightened horde,
Had thing the cargo overheard.
And then a steamer of the line
Lnld hold upon this ship of mine,
And towed her through the wntcra wild,
And tearful claims for salvage filed.
And then I learned the company
That had Insured my ship for mo
Had goue up higher than a kite,
llui-Mcd wide open out of sight.
And o again 1 sit all dnv
Dow n w hero the restless b-enkers play
And wish though nil the pood It does
My ship had stayed out where It was.
And when the evening, gray and dim,
l-'alls on the ocean's misty brim,
With woary heart and quivering lip,
I wish I'd never had no ship.

21 years of age, and she is well
known In Seattle where she has a
large circle of friends and acquain
