A HYrElK iirrirAi. exchange observes that Yolapu. the proposed universal language, will never become popular because it calls a newly wedded girl a jiyam. and that no level-headed young man will eve! begin the honeymoon with a ji-gam lor steady company. All observation. however, shows that this is a mistaken idea. When the level-headed young mail loses his heart he loses his head also to such an extent that he would begin the honeymoon with the object of his affections were she twenty times a ji-gam. Nav, he would be proud th.'t she was a ji-gam—his ji-gam—and would be happy in the profo'ind conviction that she was .. little better, and sweeter, and dearer than any other man's ji-gam. That is the sort of a creature the level-heuded young man is,brethren.

In the .Semite Wednesday Senator Sherman opened the discussion of the tariff question in a sound, argumentative protection speech. He attacked the niebhage of President. Cleveland with vigor. Me said:

The. President of the United States departing from tin practice of his illustrious predecessors, dropped ti oni his recent annual message all reference to the foreign relations of (lie country and of the interesting questions of international nfTairs, even omitting the usual recognition of the Supreme Uuler of the universe. and postponing all things, celestial and terrestial. until the surplus revenue be got lid of. In lsill! when Presiident JelTeison was favored with a surplus he preferred to allow the imports to

continue

and apply said surplus to tin

construction of public roads, and to llie purposes ef education and internal improvement. Jucksoii had signed a bill to divide the surplus among tin different States. Other administrations had wisely disposed of large surpluses by applaviiig them t* the reduction of the publie "debt or reducing taxation. Smli a thing as a surplus in the National Treasury has never heretofore been held upas a scarecrow to frighten the public, lie chargi the administration with having covered a portion tin- public debt statement, In order that the surplus might appeal $:U),UOU,OOn greater.

Senator Sherman's speech was listened to with marked attention, and atitsclose lie was congratulated by his Hepubliean colleagues upon his masterly argument. Senator Voorliees took the floor nnd npoke at length in defense of the message. The speech of the Indiana Senator upon this occasion was In .strange contrast with his Atlanta speech of two years ago, when he made a more mbid protection speech than the most radical llepublican pro-

toctionist would iltuo to nmko. Now litis on the other sWlo of the fence nml waving the fivo trado Hog with and main. Soimtor Teller in ttini replied to Senator Voorhoes "t length ntid went into the merits of the Chinese cheap lulior problem. The indications lire that the tiiriiT will be so thoroughly discussed during the present session of Congress that it will lie understood at last liy the innsj.es of the.- people.

Some years ago lioth France and Germany imposed a very high tariff on sugar In older to induce men with capital, in those- count ries,to go into the manufacture of bee!-sugar. Later, both governments offered bounties on all sugar exported to other nations. Under the stimulus these tariffs and bounties millions of dollars weru invested in beet-sugar making in France and Germany. Soon the home demand was supplied and now the qiiaiiitv of sugar produced by these nations is so great that sugar has 1 ii p.-rinanently cheapened all over the world.

Secretary Manning, in his ollicial report for iss in urging that the tariff on sugar lie retained, says: "The price of sugar has fallen to all exceedingly cheap rate," and that our own cane-sugar producers "are tinder the power of beetsugar competition and German bounties, which"(beet-sugar compotition and German bounties) "have already driven our own sugar producers to improved processes, itnil In in red I hr jiiirr of Ktf(/ir more than the removal of the whole tar ifT."

This is. Indeed, a strange argument to come from a free-trader who has spent his life in trying to piovc that a tariff laid on any article always increases the price of such articles to the consumer.

But the fact cannot be denied, that the Gorman and Fl ench tariffs on sugar have cheapened sugar all over the world. The free-trade Secretary not only admits it to be true, but urges it as a reason for retaining our own tariff on sugar. The French mid German tariffs and bounties, he argues, have so reduced the price of sugar that sugar making will be entirely piostrated in this country if the tariff is removed from sugar. Did ever a mail before so completely demonstrate the absurdity of his own theory, as Mr. Manning has done here?

And besides making sugi.r cheap the world over, the French ami German tariffs have introduced a new element into agriculture, that of beet-raising on an extensive scalt and they have also made demand for thousands of laborers who before were without profitable employment. The German and French tariffs, however, only adds one more to a thousand practical experiences which demonstrate the beneficial effects of protection and ihe absurdity of free trade.

THK Tnlttl'F (IX WOOL.

J. tie Democratic party as a whole, is in a quandary somewhat like that of tin old woman who told one of hei neighbors the way to tell whether an egg was rot ten Wits to put it in a pan of water and it would either sink or swim, she didn't know which.

Mr. Cleveland argues that tlie tariff on wool makes the price of wool higher and thei ubv increases the cost of the poor man's clothing while a Democratic friend of the President writing to the New York U'oi /f/, from Columbus, Ohio, in rep'v to Mr. Delano's wool manifest, shows from a quotation of the Boston market reports for a long series of years, that wool has always been higher under free wool, than when there was 11 tariff on it. The price of wool was very high before 1

SI 1. went

down as soon as a tariff was put 011 it, went up again when the tariff was removed. and down again when it. was increased.

The President and this friend of his taken as one mail have (or has.) come to the conclusion that a tariff 011 wool either makes wool higher or lower. They are (or he is) not certain which.

Mr. Cleveland thinks that the poor man ought to oppose the tariff 011 wool because it makes wool, and consequently woolen clothing, higher and his friend over at Columbus, thinks the farmers ought to oppose the wool tariff because it makes wool cheaper.

Verily the tariff is a dangerous weapon in the hands of men who remove the breech pin and lire away out of both ends at once.

In Pennsylvania tlu' new liigli license law is causinK an enormous reduction in the number of saloons. The necessity of pro, iiriiiK bondsmen who will becom# stiretv for the law-abiding conduct of tlios.) takliiK out licenses is in its way a great restrictive inlluenee us the high Tee. In order to keep a liquor-store in Philadelphia, for example, under the new law. a man must pay a fee of :~.00 in advance. Then he must get two reputable freeholders of the ward in which he wisiito open his saloon, each of whom must own unincumbered real estate worth over and must not be engaged in the manufacture of li(|tio1s, logo on his bond. Next he must have his petition for a license accompanied ly the certificate of twelve reputable electors of tin ward that they have known him for six months, that theyindorse his'application and that they have signed no other similar petition within a year. Their bondsmen must, be among these indorsers and must take oath to their indorsement. It is not surprising that, in the face of suoh requirements in two of tlu1 worst wards

The wife of Samuel Page, 21 Austin St., Lowell, Mass., was, for along time, subject to severe headaches, the result of stomach and liver disorders. A perfect cure has been effected by Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

Frank Roberts, 7'27 Washington st., ttostou, says that he formerly had terrible headaches, and until he took Ayer's Sarsaparilla, never found any medicine that would give

I suffered from headache, indigestion, and debility, and was hardly able to drag myself about the house," writes Mrs. M. M. Lewis, of A St., Lowell, Mass. Ayer's Sarsaparilla has worked marvelous change in my case. I now feel strong and well as ever."

Jonas (tarman, Esq., of Lykins, Pa., writes: For years I have suffered dreadfully, every Spring, from headache, caused by impurity of the blood and bilousness. It seemed for days and weeks that my head would split open. Nothing relieved me till I took Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This medicine has cured me completely."

When Mrs. Genevra Polanger. of 24 Uridge st., Springfield. Mass., began to use. Ayer's Sarsaparilla, she bad suffered for some years from a serious affection of the kidneys. Every Spring, also, she ww atllicted with headache, loss of appetite, ami indigestion. A friend persuaded her to use Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which benefited her wonderfully. Her health is now perfect.

It woulil certainly relieve 11s of the terrible strain of thinking how to dispose ol' our surplus, and might at the same time help the English llnanciors in their arduous task of raising sufficient, revenue to conduct the Government without exciting a rebellion against excessive taxation.
