TI'KSDAY, NOV KM HKR 1894.

Tii*c great apostle of free trade. W illiam L. Wilson, lectured in Baltimore the other nipht to about three hundred people. This is one of the evidence* that free trade in this country is as aead as slavery.

One county in New York. Niagara, has adopted the Myers ballot machine system for use at all general elections. It is safe to say that others will follow until it {lias been adopted by every county in that State. Good lawyer* have given it as their 'opinion that it could be adopted in this State without '•any amendment to the constitution.

If so counties should be given the privilege.

FKKS AM) SA1.AKII.

ThK CHAWFOHDSVIM.K «1 Ol'RN A I.. a representative organ of the most virulent type of Kejjubhcan reactionary legislation, demands the repeal of the fee and salary law with its provision for fixed salaries, which, of course, means the old system with its thousand and one constructions of fees not intended by the law-making power. TIN-: .Joi'iiNaL, no doubt, voices the sentiment of its party.—Frtmkfort

Cnwnt.

The Crescent is mistaken. What Tin-. •Journal did say was this /. "Thcrcwill doubtless be. and ought to be. some changes made in our fee and salary laws. The present Democratic law is a badly botched job. Hut in saying this, we do not mean to be understood as favoring the old law under which men in some counties made fortunes in a single tertn. The. law ought to be. so amended as to give every county otYieer a fair and reasonable compensation for his labor and the responsibility for his trust. Fees should not be so large as to make any position an object of heated contention. Unusually large pay attached to any office begets corruption as surely as troublesome weeds grow from seed scattered on the ground. A fair compensation for faithful services is what the people will receive with favor." The practical working's of the present law are such as to do a great injustice to many /county officers by making their compensation too low. Another injustice that should be remedied is in the enormous fees that some of our State officer* receive under the present law, particularly that of the Attorney-general, who according to his own showing has been enabled to pocket nearly $70,000 during the las' two years of his term. Tiik .INI iiXAi.*position is right and all the .misrepre sentations of theV .--'--CVc-?coi/ cantio! swerve it from its course. The Ov*

acts upon the principle that the king can do no wrong, and as it was Democratic Legislature that enacte.il the present \uw, in its blind partisan ship, it is unable to see any of its in corigruities.

TIIK OLD. OLD STOJM

One Uepublieon paper has turned up the Crawfordsville .loruNAi.. which ad mitt* that a low tariff does reduce 'the cost of articles to the consumer. Thi admission necessarily carries with it that a high tariff increases it.be cost of the same to the consumer, a propoM tion which has all along been persistently denied by the Republican press and stump.—ISmzU

Kinley law, In 1**7*. in-«|uarter. ^'Housekeeper." white, all wool blankets sold at wholesale for [S3.10 a pair: the duty was as much as the import cost of the blankets. In ISM. with an increased duty, enough blankets were made in the country to supply the demand. and the same quality of blankets sold at wholesale for a pair. These are the standards, and all other blaukets were reduced in price in like proportion. And blankets are no cheaper now under the orman law with wool on the free list. And so we might go on through the list of protected articles which are produced in this country and show that the most satisfactory road to cheapness is through domestic competition. The recent elections have shown that the people take no stock in the poll parrot ory that the "tariff a tax.':

Tiik Jotknal has never been guilty of makiug such fallacious admission* It could not admit that a low tariff it duces the cost of articles to the. eon sumer when it is not true. Kach com moditv affected by a tariff ta.\ differ in some degree from every other com modity in the tariff schedule in the mode in which the duty will affect it price. If the article be producible only abroad and must- be imported, and if the demand for it will compel its importation. as in the case of tea. coffee and tropical fruits, the whole duty will be added to the price, Vint if it has been more largely and cheaply produced here than elsewhere, like hay. potatoes and grain, the duty will not affect the price in the least. Prior to we imported all our steel wire nails: the duty was one cent a pound, and the nails cost the people seven and eight, cents a pound. In 1 the duty was raised to vfour cents a pound, and now,we are exporting them to all parts of the world.and notwithstanding the duty of four cents, our people have been buying them at about two cents a pound. And notwithstanding the reduction of vhe duty on wire nails in the Gorman law wire nails are no cheaper than they were under the Me-

Naval architects are credited with, saying that highest speed in navigation could be obtained by submarine boats:.!.-. The principle is illustrated in the div- j? lug birds, which are capable uf shoot-j lug through the water with amazing velocity. While these birds live by catching fish in deep water far be*» low the surface they present inany.j differences in outer appearance. In! the collection at the London zoological gardens are black-footed penguins, 1 guillemotes. "darters." a puffin and a! cormorant. The penguin cannot fly inj the air. can? w.ilk, but hops as if its feet were tied together, and cannot Bwiin. and can only with any grace lly under water. When the keeper of their quarters appears to feed the birds they each behave in their characteristic way. The tish thrown into the water, the penguins instantly plunge beneath, when an astonishing change takes place, thus described by a writer in the Spectator

The slow, ungainly bird is transformed into a swift and beautiful creature, beaded with globules of quicksilver where the air clings to the

Iom- feathers, and living through the clear and waveless depths with arrowy speed and powers uf turning far greater than in am* known form of aerial flight. The rapid and steady strokes of the wings are exactly similar to those of the air birds, while the feet float straight out level.'with its body, unused for propulsion or even as rudders, and as little needed in its progress as those a wild duck when the wing. The twists and turns necessary to follow the active little tish are made wholly by the strokes of mowing and the cessation of movement in the other: and the lish are chased, caught and swallowed -without the slightest,/relaxation of speed in a submarine flight which is quite as rapid as that of most birds which take their prey in midair. .The head and boulders may be 'brought' above the urface for a second and then disappear: but any attempt to remain on the surface leads to ludicrous splashing and confusion, for the sul.marine bird cannot float.

The movements of the cormorant are quite different- It does not plunge headlong, but launches itself on the surface and then "ducks" like a grebe. Its wings nre not .used as propellers, but- trail unresistingly level with its body, and the speed at which it courses through the water is.wholly due to the •uvimming powers of its large and ugly webbed feet. These' are set ouitc at the end of the. body and work incessantly like a treadle., or the floats of a stern wheel steamer. .Yet the condi* tions of submarine .motion'are so favorable that the .speed of the bird below the surface is three or four times jrenter than that gained by equally rapid movements of the feet 'when it has risen/and is s^vimining on the top.
