It la entirely too long to be pre sented here, but the vereoa used are among the moat atrlking and tend te show Us graphlo style, and particularly refer to the crime depicted. The poem first appeared in an annual called The a em, of which, in the year 18, r he composed ' a short poem in defense Of eulolde, and opened a vein In his arm, , but waa discovered before life war extinct, and the aentenoe of the law was duly carried out. ; -. The case excited e good deal of at tention throughout England. Numer ous allusiona to it may be found In con-1 temporary literature, end besides melodrama by W, O. Wnila, it supplied the subjects of a romance by Bui war ana tne-Doom by Hood. . Bulwer represents the hero as a high- minded student, who Joins Houseman in ths murder of Clarke only that he may obtain money to prosecute hie own lofty I spaoulatlone Id virtue. Clarke le the as sumed nam of Goeffrey Lester, and af ter the murder Aram unwittingly takes up his abode next door te the brother and aon of his vlotlm, and commits the further imprudence of falling la love witn tne latters niece, Madeline Xyster. The son of the murdered man con-1 oelvea an unaccountable . loathing for I thla mysterious stranger, which la In creased by dlscoverlhg .that hla counaln J MBueuns, v wnom ne passionately tovea, no less ardsntly loves Eugene. Young Lester grows moody, and to distract bla mind, commenoee an Inquiry after his I father, who was generally supposed tel nave died in the East indies. At laat.1 to hla utter astonishment, an accident rsvaaia tne irutn. He hastens to bis uncle's and seises the murderer when dressed to lead hla bride to the altar. At the trial Eugene -makes a brilliant plea In his own defense, but is con victed, and eubaequently makes a full oonfeaslon, opens hie velna in a slovenly I way, is borne oreatmng to tne gaiiosre. and expires while the Hangman la fitting tne noose. ' Bulwers story haa been imitated by I tna Russian Dostovlosky In ma novel, "Crime, and Punishment." where ra young atudent kills s miserable old hag I with the Intention of using her money for praiseworthy objects. "George de Barnwell," the ' best " of Thackeray'a "Prise Novels," Is an exceedingly clever burlesque- of Bulwer, at whose romances I of crime he had already had a fling in tne -awryor catnenne.

They play such sad havoc with theories I Do T mean to nay there is no a-ettins at the root of this matter? By no means. I am writing about products of tha soil. Now in all products of farm or factory the ' great expense is for labor. In those of the soli nearly all a labor When the subject of transportation Is approached Is it not the same? What but labor and wages is Involved? The roadbed of the railroad, the rails, thi rolling stock, the motive power, the coal and the operation of the train are held at least 75 per cent labdr to 25 per cent capital. If this view. Is right then the measure of protection Is well fixed hv the difference in the cost of labor in each country ws consider. If one orch ard hand In the Pacific states is paid 1.60 to I2.B0 per day and the same ser vice is to ba had in Spain for 18 cents to tl, than tha protection is In the same ratio as tne labor. The average rate for orchard labor In the states of the Paoiflc coast is probably at least $1.60 day. The average wage in Soaln is about S5 centa. Transportation from the Peclflc statea to eastern markets costs about one cent per pound, $1 per I'M pounds. Fruit can be landed down in our Atlantlo porta from Spain at a cost of 26 to $0 cents per 100 pounds.
