FKAxris.loii.vsoN. a prominent Democrat of Lafayette, the publisher of Herman paper and a man who has been honored by his party, has renounced free trade Democracy and declared his conversion to Republicanism.: r. Johnson is a man of wide influence, especially among the Hermans and his change in polities has created a consternation iu the Democratic ranks.

Tiik average rate of duty has varied considerably ever since the first tariff was laid on imported goods. In 17SJthe average was rather more than 5 per cent—that was the basic import duty —through various articles of luxury were taxed as high as 1.1 per cent. In -lS16 the average rate was higher, though the highest rate was 20 per cent. The act of 1 -S"J4 levied duties of 33f per cent on cotton and woolen goods, thus raising the average considerably. The average rate was increased by the act of ]SJS, under which some articles were taxed 50 per cent.

The average under the act of 1S32 was :(.( per cent. The act of 1S33 provided for a gradual reduction in the duty on all articles liable under the act of 1S32 to a duly of inore than 20 per cent, until they should be liable to more than 20 per cent. The act of 1*42 raised duties, and the act of IMti lowered them, though it was not a free-trade measure. The act provided for various schedules. schedule A carried a duty of loo per cent: li. one of 10 per cent: C. one of 30 percent: and so on. Iu 1V7 duties were lowered again, the highest duty being 21 percent: in 1S05. with the "war tariff" in full force, it was 47..10 per cent. In 1SS3, by the tariff of that year, it was 40 per cent: and under the .McKinley act it is 4f percent. Two tariffs have imposed a higher average rate than the McKmley :bin,i|I?Y:

Ol lt.MAItJvKTS (iOINO.

Minister Arriaga. of Guatemala, has been oilieially advised by the Mate Department that the new tariff law terminates the reciprocity treaty between the I'nited States and Guatemala and has transmitted the notification to his government. lie said:

It is my personal opinion that the reciprocity treaty was very beneficial to both countries, immense quantities

tiualarnala used of barbed wire

made here. It is chiefly an agricultural country, and the American barbed wire has come to be the only material used in fencing off the farms. It was admitted to Guatemala free of duty under the reciprocity treaty.which greatly stimulated its use. Almost all the agricultural implements used in Guatemala were all brought from the I'nited States, as they wer.' made free of duty by the reciprocity treaty. Other classes of manufactured iron goods, suili as railroad supplies, machinery, etc.. were also bought in large quantities by Guatemala under the reciprocity arrangement.

On the other hand, our country has been able to ship sugar in large qualities to the I'nited States, as that article was admitted free of duty. Now. however, the new sugar duty of 10 per cent ad valorem amounts to an absolute prohibition against all shipments of sugar from Guatemala to the I'nited Stutes. This is the more marked from the fact that the I'nited States treaty with Hawaii admits suear free of duty, so that while Guatemala is on the same footing as l'raz.il, Cuba, and other sugar countries in having an American duty of 40 per cent against thern. yet it and all the other southern countries are at the disadvantage of having a sugar-producing competitor. Hawaii, wtiich lias free access to this country.

It should be borne in mind that it was the I 'nited States that inaugurated the reciprocity policy. It took the first, steps and invited the Southern and Central American republics to enter into closer commercial arrangements. These countries reciprocated the kindly feelings, and many of them entered into the arrangements which the I'nited .States proposed. The I'nited States was therefore the moving power und if it now sees fit to terminate that policy it is not for the southern countries to urge its eontinuaace.

And thus our markets are slipping away from us. The Democratic policy instead of opening the markets of the world is closing them.

JEAN IK'S LOVE LETTERS.

Her Romance Was Certainly a Peculiar Ono.

Jcanie Campbell came back from the tailor's shop where she worked and found a company of boys and girls congregated round the doorstep of the tall tenement house in which she rented one small, back room. They were hootintr and jeering at a man seated iu his shirt sleeves on the doorstep placidly smoking a huge German porcelain pipe. The man did not seem iu tho least disturbed by their jeers and shrieks, but smoked on with his eyes fixed upon tho only strip of sunset sky visible above the grimy roofs.

Jeauie pushed her way in. "What's the matter'.''' '•Yah—Dutchy! Fnt 'e a blooming soft! Give a boy a snillin' to go and fetch 'im something to eat. and is witing 'ere for 'm! I'nt 'c a style: Wonder 'ow long he'll wite!" "Who is he?" "A blooming Dutchy! 'e earnt speak I no English, 'e carnl—'as to make signs —and nobody 'ere can speak nothink else. I'nt 'e a softy'." I The girl paused and looked at the man. There was something in his patient attitude that aroused her pity. I Some softer remembrance of the days before she came to this trreat, wicked I London came over her. The man's eyes, so blue, clear and bright, and the healthy tinge, of his wholesome face, smote upon her with a pang of recollection of the honest Scottish faces she had left with contempt for their content. when she had started forth to see life in London.

She went up to the man and signed to him to follow her indoors. She tried to make him understand that he had been robbed. The soft, gentle tones that ans'vered her were quite unintelligible he smiled, shrugged his shoulders. spread his hands and looked at her with that calm trustfulness one sees in dogs and children.

She smiled, nodded, pointed up the stairs and then ran out of the house. She returned with a loaf of bread and a half pound of sausages for him aud a roll for herself she would make that do he was a stranger, alone aud friendless.

She put the things iu his hand, pointing down the street as if to indicate that she had brought the things from the boy. lie seemed to understand, took her hand and raised it to his lips the action was so simple, so grateful, that she felt ashamed and ran up the stairs to her own room.

Her comfortless breakfast of a dry roll the next morning made her a little regretful of her charity the night before. "He must shift for himself as I have to do,"' she thought, and she went out to her day's work.

When she returned in the evening she found him standing outside the door, lie bowed and smiled, opened his door and showed his various purchases on his table. He had evidently found his way round to shops.

She went lip the stairs, feeling the least little bit disappointed that he did not require her help any more, lie seemed different from the jaded, vulgar men and women she came in contact with in her city life. The air of the fields seemed to cling to him still. She thought as she toiled up the weary stairs how sweet the country must be looking now. Was the sun shining on the hills at home and making the waters of the loch sparkle—the bonnie hills that she would never see again? Friends were dead, and to a tailoress at twelve shillings a week it was indeed a far cry to Loch Awe.

Something was on her table, a little sketch of a sweep of wide hills, with fir forests clinging to their sides, a little cluster of houses with, wide overhanging roofs, and shutters in the windows. A figure was standing in the doorway of one of the houses. "This is his house," said Jeanie to herself. "What a funny thing to do, to give me a picture of it! 1 wish I could send hiin back one of Loch Awe, and our house up on the braes."

The next day was Sunday: she usually passed the morning in bed, tired out with her week's work. When Hhe came down about the middle of the day she met him coming In, evidently in his Sunday best. Could he have been to church? Well, it was clear he had not learned the manners of Kureka court yet

She tried to express her thanks by looks and smiles. He seemed to understand, and laughed, and then she. felt with a quick touch of dismay that he glanced in surprise at her untidy dress and towzlcd hair. Jeauie did not "tidy" herself until afternoons then in an enormous hat and feathers and much-becurled head she perambulated the adjacent streets in company with girls of her acquaintance, not yet vicious, only ignorant, vain and craving for a little of that happiness which seems all girls their birthright.

That same hair was in wrappers now —she blushed as she recalled the fact— her hands were grimy, her face unwashed His eyes noted it.

They did not meet again during the week, but next Sunday morning found Jeanie with her hair out of papers and her hands washed she was loitering at the street corner when he cainc back In his spruce clothes. She gave him a pert nod she felt annoyed with him for some unknown reason, and that evening made herself as resplendent as possible in hor cheap, gaudy finery. "lie shall see that I can be smart, too," she thought, and tossed her head as he approached. lie stopped, and, drawing a notebook from his poekcb, rapidly sketched a church front upon it. She shook her head. lie looked puzzled then his quick fingers drew the outside of one of tho commonest typo of meetinghouse. She shook her head agaiu, and moved off. Somehow she did not like

to show him how she spent her Sunday evenings. The weather became very hot. Jeanie drooped more aud more in tho unhealthy workroom and stuffy streets, He seemed to notice it, for on Saturday night she found a drawing of trees and a path and figures walking about, and I underneath the figures 2:"0. Could lie, be asking her to go for a walk? Stio waited in to see. I At 2:30 a knock came at her door,

There he was, with his square, ugly, good-natured face smiling at her. Slio felt awkward going down the stairs with him. What could they do during the whole walk if neither could speak to the other? Hut that walk did not take place. Tho smart tie around her neck had been tho prico of her dinner: I she turned faint and reeled, then sat down on the stairs and burst into tears.

She hardly know if she was vexed or pleased to llnd herself picked up like a baby and carried up to her own room and laid upon her bed. She sat up and drank some water, while he stood looking perplexed at her, and she blushed that he should see lier untidy, disorderly room. lie went out In a few minutes she heard her door open, and something pushed along the floor. It was a little jug of hot coffee and milk and a plate of German rolls.

The next day another picture was left It represented a large workshop, with men sitting at tables, all busily engaged over some mechanical work underneath was written the figures 80s.

With unskillful fingers she drew an outline of a coat and waistcoat and a needle and thread and posted it at his door as she went out but she had to come back again, she was so ill, and all day she lay there alone, waiting for what was the only friendly signal in the world to her, the scrap of paper of the foreign artist

She heard it pushed under the door at last, and feebly rose and groped for it Her head was throbbing so that she could scarcely see that it contained a whole line of portraits—an elderly man and woman, and younger faces, among which was his own. Ilis family doubtless.

She made a rough outline of her hat, with a sharp oval for a face underneath. She was too ill to get it down to him. She pushed it out and trusted that he would get it She heard him in the morning come up again, and then she heard no more, for the fever seized upon her, and when next, she woke to consciousness she was lying on a hospital bed. For days she was too weak to speak or think, but, when she was able, one of the nurses asked her if she would like to see some papers which had been brought to the hospital for her, and the nurse spread them out before her.

The first was of a man following a stretcher through the streets, then the same man sitting alone in a solitary room with his head bowed upon his'hand and weeping. The next, the same man at a door, evidently asking questions of a porter within. The next, the man was beside a bed on which lay a deathlike figure. "Has he been to see me?" "Yes. it was when we thought you were dying he came every day. but we could not tell him anything, no one could speak his languasre, but at lust we found It was Wendish, from the borders of Saxony and Hohemia. and one of the doctors here got him a book In it, by which he could study English. You will see by the sketches."

The next one represented the man with the book in his hand. The next showed the man in a train, aud then on board a steamer, and then in another train.

Jeanie dropped the papers. "He is gone!" she said, with a little weak erv. "Oh, whv have I got any better?''

There is another picture," said the nurse, and she unrolled it for the trembling girl.

The man had arrived at the little village Jcanie remembered in his first sketch, then the interior of a house was shown, a coffin lay in the middle of the room, an old woman, two girls and three men knelt around it.

His father is dead." said Jeanie, aud sae turned to the next. The man was at the hospital door.

Oh, he is coming hack!" she cried. See, this is the last," said the nurse, and as she held it vip she laughed. It was the man on ono knee before a girl—Jeanie in her outrageous hat hut there was in a little sketch, up in the right-hand corner, as if it was yet in the distance, the same little village with the pine forests around, the two figures, the man and Jeanie, walking arm in arm up the village street

The nurse held her sides for laucrhing. "It's the funniest tiling I ever saw in my life!" she said.

Jeanie gathered her papers together with some dignity. "I don't call it funny." she said. "1

I think it was just, the nicest tiling that ever was done to a girl." "My loofe!" said a voice at her side, and there was the man. Jeanie gave a little cry. "My loofe!" said the man again "it i« my first Engleesh to you, and it will be my last. My loofe!"

And Jeunie, with all,the dreams of her girlhood back upon her, put her arms around his neck, and sobbing, said: "And I don't even know your name, but I don't care for anything in the world but you."—N. Y. Tribune.

An Epidemic Of Enthusiasm

That's what it is. It broke out last week when we made our fall announcement

and placed on sale our new fall stock at about 20 per cent less than same quality of

goods were ever offered in a regular line of merchandise. Every reader of our ad. came to see u-\ Everybody passing stopped. Some folks thought it was a mistake—

wrong placards over the goods. Others didn't stop to ask any questions, just quickly

said: "I'll take eight yards of that." "Give me that pattern," etc., etc. It was not "just a bit of luck" on their part. It would not be "just luck" 011 your part. There is

no "just luck" about our business. Everything we say, everything we show you as

bargains are premeditated, are natural results of certain causes. Those causes are strict adherence to our business principles, viz: Close watch over the markets, careful

buying that we may not have undesirable goods to oiler, uj ing of first hands for cash selling for the very least we can, believing in the motto, "Large sales and small profits"

and last but not least, thoroughly advertising our offerings, and then always having just what we advertise. In this way we have gained the confidence and good will

almost every man, woman and child in Montgomery county and many in adjoining

counties, which enables 113 to do the largest business in this section and that in turn not only enables but compels us to buy more goods than all our competitors and we

buy them cheaper. Therefore it is not "just luck" but results of sound business prin­

ciples lhat enables you to buy goods of us cheaper than from any house in the county.

It Pays to Trade at the Big Store.

We have watched the markets close enough to secure the following bargains in Dress Goods and Silks. They can not be duplicated and will not last long, so don't

put oil" vour buying until next week, it may be too late, come at once.
