THAU 10 UNIONISM AND PROTECTION. Tim JoruxAi. _elsewhcre to-day prints an interesting letter from Great •.Falls. Montana, written by A. T. Kellison, in which he speaks of the powerful influence of trades unions in maintaining a high rate of wages for labor in that city. There could be no stronger argument in favor of the principles of protection as opposed to the principles of free trade than that presented by Mr. Kellison. The free trade theory is that of the let-alone doctrine to the effect that you must "buy in the cheapest and sell in the dearest market," and that everything must be settled by the unrestrained and unqualified economic law of supply and demand. That carried to its logical effect would repeal all our contract labor laws,—laws that were enacted by the demand of the laboring men of the
United States that they should lie protected against that form of competion. If the free trade doctrine be sound, by what principle do you step in and say to the employer of the United States, "You shall not buy your labor in the cheapest markets." The underlying proposition of the free trader is that it is idle to attempt to modify by legislation the working of immutable economic laws. Apply the let-alone theory to ttie action of. men. Do workingmen wait and rely upon the operation of these so-called economic laws on which free trade rests, to regulate their all'airs'.' They combine to bring about an increase in their wages, to elevate their own conditions, to prevent by artificial means means destructive competition. Every labor union that is formed flies in the face of the doctrine of free trade. Hut none the less are men going to form them. They wield a vast power, they will keep on'growing, and they exist becuuse they represent the instincts of human nature to unite for self-protec-tion. Every true trade-unionist, therefore fore, must be a sound protectionist. And it ,is to his interest that the imported products of cheap labor shall be shut out by protective duties. This makes it possible for the manufacturer and the employer of labor to pay the wages demanded by trades unions. The law of self-preservation is a higher law than any that political economy lias ever invented, and, although it is the outcome of human nature, it is immutable. The workingmen of the United States
the nation's protectors, and as "Colonel Ingersoll said at one time "the nation that will not protect its prolectors should be wiped from the map of the earth."
OX WITH THE DAXCK. The Star, which claims to be "Democratic tooth and toe-nail." reads the riot act this week to the lion. E. V. Brookshire in language which cannot be mistaken and in manner and style which that gentleman must despise. The immediate cause of this fresh outbreak is a Washington dispatch to the Indianapolis Xcu'n and reprinted in the ./minid/, in which the correspondent refers to the opposition to Mr. Brookfahire in the Eighth district and coupled the name of John K. Lamb in connection with the candidacy for Congress by the anti-Brooksliire wing. This the Star denominates "stupendous idiocy," and gravely makes the charge that Brookshire inspired the dispatch, fcjo for as Mr. Lamb's candidacy is concerned the .Star says he "is not, will not and don't expect to be a candidate." In the matter of appointments the "tooth and toe-nail" organ makes the charge that if Brookshire ever secured one for anybody it knows nothing of it. The credit of Cap. Huff's appointment of the petty job to guard the Treasury cuspidors and the sinecure given to Con Cunningham to get him away from Washington, according to our irritated neighbor, belongs to Senators oorhees and Turpie, and "lion. D. V. McAllister and the .S'tnr." And last but not least the "paper of convictions" charges that "the member in his selfishness did put in a protest against Chairman Johnston getting a position at Washington, which was something far more contemptible tkan withholding his recommendation." It says it "refers thus plainly to Elijah V.
Brookshire because he invited criticism by stating things palpably and notori
ously false. Ho has deceived his friends and treated them with cold indifference born of an egotism which is peculiar to men of small intellects." This is pretty strong language for a Democratic organ to employ in describing the character and calibre of a Democratic Congressman. But to this whip of scorpions the .Star puts on this stinging cracker: "When he began to villify his friends by slandering them he erected the scaffold on which he crucifies himself, and now on the scaffold he dons the ass's ears." All this and what the t. and t-n. organ further says that Mr. Brookshire's "renomiuation means the loss of enough votes to lose the Eighth district and with it the county ticket," go to -how that the Democracy is anything but a happy, united and harmonious family.
Now, if this member [Brookshire] has ever got anybody anything won't that somebody hold up his or her hand! Don't all speak at once.—Star.
What's the matter with Postmaster Voris? And there's Mr. Snyder at Yountsville.
THE Democratic papers are busy now reading David B. Hill out of their party. A good many Democrats have read themselves out judging from the resu Its of the Spring elections over the country.
TUK Republicans this year will stamp in the square that surrounds the eagle and do no more monkeying with it except to fold it up in the proper manner and hand it to the inspector.
WHEN the Star speaks of a "nondescript paper in this city which never bad a creditable name" does it refer to the_ Review or the Aryus-Xerc/tt

The question let a bright light of happy relief into the girl's heart and filled her with an absolute reassurance of lier confidence in him. "Yes, it is true terribly true, dear. When did you see it?" "Yesterday morning, just after I had posted my letter to you. Who did it? Is it known yet?" "No nobody knows yet!" "When did it happen? Is anyone suspected?" ho asked in a quick, hurried voice. "Some time on Friday night it happened. It is not quite certain when. He was seen alive somewhere about eight o'clock on Friday evening and when Jake Farnworth went to the mill to fettle up something in the engine shed, he found him dead." She did not answer his second question, bnt he repeated it. "Do they suspeot anyone?" "They've hardly begun to make any inquiries yet," she answered, evading it. "Are you sure of that, lass?" he asked, anxiously. "I thought they might perhaps snspect me." He said this with a foroed and uneasy laugh that grated painfully on the girl's ear. "Why you, Tom? Why should they suspect you? Did you go to the mill that night, as we arranged you should? I have often wondered whether you did." "No, lass, I didn't go. I started to go, but I never went." "I wish now you had," she said. "You might have saved his life. This might never have happened if you'd gone there. Why didn't you go?" "I don't know. I suppose I was a bit afraid of facing him, or I didn't think any good would come of it. He was so dead sure of my having tampered with his money." "Is that why you came away, then?' "Yes, mostly, that and other things." "What other things?" "Oh, I don't want to talk about them.
Never mind them now. I did come away, and ever since I saw what had happened that night, I've been downright afraid lest they should think I'd cut it on account- of—of old Coode's death." "I wish you'd tell me what other things led to your coming away, dear," said Mary, gently. "Why? It can't do any good that I can see," he answered, somewhat sharply. "I've been a fool, Mary," he said, in a low, rather ashamed voice, "but I've given it the go-by now. Don't ask me any questions about that anyway not yet. I'll tell you some day. I've been a mad fool, but it's all over, if you can forgive me. I'm going away, as I told you in the letter, and 1 don't want you to think hardly of me. lass but I'd rather you didn't ask anything about that," he said, dejectedly. "I'll only ask you one thing. You're sure you weren't in the mill that night, Tom?" "Sure? Of course, I'm sure! Who says different? I wasn't far away from the mill, but I didn't go into it." "Then if anyone says they saw you gying into the place that night about ten o'clock from the Watercourse-lane, it wouldn't be true, would it?" "No, it would be a thundering lie, whoever said it," he answered, '?ehemently. Then he added, quickly ani shrewdly: "Then I'm right. They do suspect me, eh?" "What scarf had you on that night, Tom?" she asked, passing over his last question. "Why, just what I have on now, to be sure," he answered, readily. "But what do you mean by such a question as that?" "I'd better tell you plainly. They say you were seen getting into the mill that night at about ten "'clock and that a handkerchief of yours—one I gave you, Tom—was picked up inside the mill, close by the place." "Who found it?" "I believe Beuben Gorringe did." "Curse him he's a traitor, I believel" cried Tom, fiercely. "Nay, Tom he's a friend. Directly the affair at the mill had happened he came round to say that he wanted you at the mill, and that you were not to think anything more of what had happened in the afternoon between Mr. Coode and you. He's a friend. "Does he know you've come to see me?" asked the man, suspiciously. "He doesn't know it but he guessed I should come, and he advised me to tell you to come back to Walkden Bridge and face matters out, but that if not he would do whatever he could to help you to wait until the explanation could be given." "Explanation," cried Tom, "what explanation? What does he say against me? "lie does not say anything against you, dear all he means is that there are matters which will need explanation." She was anxious to let him know what she knew, and yet shunned the task of speaking out plainly. "It may be necessary that you should—should say why you came away and—and what you were doing during the whole of that evening, and how the handkerchief can have come to be inside the mill close by that window." "What do you mean by this, Mary?" he asked, "have you come here just to try and question me as to my doings on that night?" "I have not come to ask any questions for my own sake," answered the girl. "Well, If jrou hare come for mine you make a great mistake. I don't care a straw what people say. I have already told you that I don't wish to speak of the matter."
"It is not what ordinary people think, dear but what the—" she stopped, and changed the form of what she was saying. "It is no time {or beating about the bush. I have been half afraid to speak out. But I had better. I am afraid they do suspect you, Tom, and there are one or two reasons why. Some of these are known to those who are making inquiries— the police—others only to ourselves. In the first place there is the knowledge that you had words with Mr. Coode that day, and that he told you to leave Walkden Bridge." "That's why I left," said her companion, eagerly. "Yes, I know, my dear, but they know you did not leave until nearly midnight or at least they think It, and they think that yon were about the mill and got into the place through the window in Watercourse-lane then that you dropped a handkerchief close by—and if they think that, they ask why you went there? Then, for some reason, I know not what, the papers which Mr.
Coode had, and which he regarded as the proof of what he charged you with having done, were taken away from the office when he was killed." (To Be Continued.)
