'KKK TltAIII! VS. PROTECTION. Eviry ro'lon ought to lookout for Its own peculiar liitoiests. "Who can ill.Hputo IhutV Wull thou!

Jn that case wo need only to load ourHhlps or any Hhlps with our crude oro and Ico to get back overy artielo wo dcHlrc. Wo need only to roll up the Ico and Iron to become possessed of all tho comforts and luxuries of life In exchange. If any onowcro to propose to put a pro tcctlvo taritr on Imports and thus Interfere with our leo and Iron trade wo would hiss hint out of our country.

Hero wo can produce, all tho raw material for manufactures, but our mild climate can sustain countless munlcrH of people. Our cheap lauds guarantee high wages to labor. With all our advantages and Invitations to diversified indus tries shall wo allow ioor and crowd cd regions to pour Into our country tho clothing and machinery and other comuiodltlca produced by them at a price for labor that will be starvation here? The question is an absurdity. Hero wo are, we map suppose, living In comparative luxury. Our farms produce throe Union inoro or atsro than lauds elsewhere-, ami therefore bread Is cheap. Even If farm pn iluetsarelow the high production por aero pays the farmer well, for our agriculturists who got thirty bushels per aero on cheap lands have Infinite advantages over the wuitorn farmer who at intst can make only twelve bushels on $ftO lir aero land. For this very reason moohanloal laltor Is high.

Foreign imports arc taxed by our tarifl and their prices raised. Wc are doing well. Suddenly all tarifls are taken off. Infinite quantities of clothing, leather, shoes, harness, glass nnd queonswarc, matches, quinine, in fact everything wo are making and selling here, is introduced at prices so very low that at one fell sweep every factory ami shop and mill must close. Such a revolution might be tolerated if the causes were slowlv introduced. When labor saving machinery was first intro duced and the factory workmen saw machines taking the places of laborers, one machine often doing the work ofiifty or a hundred men, the workers knew well that they were injured. All the cunning arguments of politicians were of no avail, when men saw blind niecliuii im driving them by the thousand from their places in factories. They see the wune cll'ccts in vast cargoes of goods Introduced here at starva tion prices. Whatever may be the ultimate good of labor saving machinery, or of frco trade low prices, no one can deny that the remedy, if remedy It be, is short, sharp, severe, generally destructive to tho very lives of millions. And therefore it is utter madness to argue for such destructive reforms. We tell you, free trader, that even if your theory bo ever so plausible and its practice, in time, even if it shall become benign and kindly, it is a cut-throat, a robber and a murderer at the first and gets its place by destructive methods. THIS REDUCTION THICK. There are various ways of playing the average reduction trick says the Philadelphia Press. This is ono of them: "My bill is not a free trade bill," says Robert Quixote Mills, prancing around while making n speech; "It provides for an average reduction of only 7 per cent." "Will the gentleman allow me to ask a question'.'" said a quiet man in tho audience. "Of course." "Your salary as a congressman, I believe, Is WOOD a year?" stated the quiet man. "It Is," replied tho great orator. "And tho president's is $50,000?" "Yes, sir." "iMaking together $o.r,,()00?" "Of couise," replied the great orator emphatically. "Now," continued the quiet man, "if we put you on I ho free list with out disturbing tho president's pay Just as you have done with wool without disturbing rice that would be an average reduction ot only a trifle over 0 per cent. How would you stand that kind of average re duction?" "Oh, you go home and soak yo' head," felicitously replied tho great orator. A peculiar case is that of Levi Smith, who lives near Lentncr, Mo. lie Is afflicted with maggots lu tho nose, and has been under treatment for a week or so. How they got there, he cannot say, but Mrs. Smith thinks she can account for It. Sonic time ago, she says, while Mr. Smith was at work in' tho field, he was taken with tho nose-bleed. He quit work, went totho house, washed his face and laid down on tho bed and went to sleep, with his face to an oHin window. Shu thinks that while asleep a blow-lly deposited Its eggs in his nostrils. Physicians have been treating him, and have succeeded In removing upward of 1100 maggots from his nostrils. At last accounts ho was thought to be Improving. It is stated that a compositor on the New York World set up 000 ems from the dictation of Edison's new phonograph. Tho machine was arangvd with two small tubes fitted to the compositor's cars and connected by a largo tubo to the Phonograph. Tho latter was run by a small electric motor ami a pedal attachment so regulated. It that It could lw started and stopped nt the compositors pleasure. The Phono graph would talk oft a scntonco In the printer's listening car and then be stopmnl until ho had put the words In tyins.

Edward Everett when at Harvard Col lege went home etery Sunday on foot, carrying the soiled cotton of tho week, and bringing back another bundle of clean clothes on the return trqi The students then swept their rooms, trimmed their own lamps, carried their own water buckets and sawed their own firewood. An exchange noting these tacts remarks: "Since then the time ha? changed." Ami, we may add, the men fitve chauccd still more than the times. The boys v of fifty years ago, who literally (ought againstc poverty for an education and who after wards loved labor and laughed at hard ship, became mighty workmen in all pro fessions, a race of mental giants, mentes sans in corporibus sanis, not afraid to me their minds nor ashamed to work their muscles. Cass was rocked in a sugar trough for lack ol a cradle, but he wnikcd hard for an education, and while yet a boy, in the first year of this century, walked all the way from Exeter, New Hampshire, to Marietta, Ohio, then a wilderness, whero he studied law. He was afraid ol no kind of work. Quelling conspiracies, fighting Indians, governing a wild terri. tory, conducting the War Department, representing his country in a foreign Court, tilling a seat in the Senate or man aging the complicated affairs of the State Department weere nil alike to the hold, strong, great men who had learned to work when a child and w.ho loved work all his noble life lime through. And while young Cass was carrying his peck across the Alleghany mountains another New Hampshire farmer boy, Daniel Web ster, was spending tho last dollar of his own and his brother's earnings in complet ing his term at Dartmouth But he had been a hard working lad and had fortified his frame by (oiling among stumps, rocks, drifts and weeds on his father's farm, tie never afterwards shrunk from work, and the impress of his hand will never be removed from the legal records and the civil history of this country. The times have surely changed siuce Everett, Cass ai.d Webiter were boys. Thero was a perpetual freshness, vitality and enemy about these sons of toil, a spirit of selfcon lidence, a cultivated lovo for overcoming hardships and solving difficulties, for which they were indebted to the rough loro of the corn field and threshing floor, and all the rugged tutelage of labor. From tlis N. O. Picayune. A Modern Job. A certain old New Hampshiie farmer preserved his constant good nature, let what would turn up. One day one of his men came in, bringing the news that auc of his oxen was dead, "hi lie?" said tho old man "Well, he was always a brcachy recall Take his liiilu off and take it down to Fletchers; it will fetch the cash." An hour after the man came back with the news that Linrhack and lii mate was dead. "Are they!" said tho oldmanj "well, I took them from Iiroun to save a bad debt that I never expected to get. It is lucky it ain't the bundles. After the lapse of another hour tho man came again, to lell him it. e nigh brindle was dead. ' Is lie." said tho old man. "Well, he wos a eiy old ox. 'lake off Ins hide, and take it down to liilclioi'; it is worth cash, and will bring mora than any two of the others." Hereupon, his wife, ho was n very pioussoul, reprimanded her husband Be verly, mid asked him if he was not aware that the loss was not a judgment Irom heaveu for his wickedness. "Is ii?" said the old man. "Well, if they will take the judgment in cattle, it is the easiest way I can p.y it." A Sound Legal Opinion. E. Balnbridgo Mttnday Esq., County Atty., Clay Co., Tex. says: "Have used Electric Hitters with most happy results. My brother also was very low with Malarial Fever and Jaundice, but was cured by tho timely use of this medicine. Am satisfied Electrlt Hitters saved his life." Mr. 1). I. Wllcoxson, of Horse Cavo, Ky., adds a like testimony, saying: Ho positively believes he would have died, had It not been for Electric Hitters. This great remedy will wnrd off, as woll as cure all Malaria Diseases, and for all Kidney, Liver nnd Stomach DlsorUors stand uuequnlcd. Price 60o. and $1. at Dr. H. W. Cox's. Mrs. Koulston was drowned Fri day about six miles above Florence. She was a couslnlof Mr. Stiles. Mrs. Koulston was stopping with Mr. and Mrs. Stllos; Mr. Stiles and wife being away from homo sho went across tho river to milk. In about half an hour aftor,?sho was found nearly a hundred yards below the wharf, caught In some brush. How It happouud no ono knows. Sho had !nUhcd milking and tho milk was on the wharf, audlhor boat was tied as she had left it. Lore-Making In Holland. A curious method prevails in Oud Beirland, Holland. October is the au spicious month, and on the first Snnday, known as review day, the lads and lasses, attired in tbeirbest, promenade the village separately, stare each other out of counte nance and then retire to make up their minds on 'he second Sunday, which is called Decision day. The young men go up and pay their compliments to tho fair ones of their choice to learn it they are regarded with favor. On the third Sun day, or day of purchase, tho swain is ex pected to snatch the pocket handkerchief ot his adored one, and if she submits to it with good grace, he understands that his chances of winning her aro flattering. The captured pledge is lestored to the fair owner on the fourth Sunday, the "Sun dav of Taking Possession," and it rarely happens that the damsel refuses the lover for whom she has indicated a preference. On the Sunday following, the suitor, oc cording to custom, calls at the house of his inamorata, where he is asked to tea. If a piece of the crust of a gitieer-bread loaf is handed to him, there is nothing loft lor him but to retire. If, on the other hand, the parents offer him a piece of crumb, ho is allowed to come again and is admitted into the family. The Epoch.
