REFORM MUST FOLIOW. FARMERS DEMAND INSTANT AND ADEQUATE RELIEF. Artisans Nat Misled by protectionists* Clamor—Glove Maker* ot Gloversvllle Discuss the Tariff—They Itefute the Hilly Talk of the High Taxere. Reform the Tariff. The abnormally low prices of grain and the ebbing markets for cotton, while the prices of all manufactured goods are kept at high-water mark by a class tariff, make a condition of things that cannot last forever. The agricultural interests of the United States and the interests immediately dependent upon and identified with them are strong enough to overthrow any system that opposes them, and sooner or later they will do it Whether the remedy shall come on linos of conservatism and broad wisdom, or with the energy of blind Samson, depends largely on the Democratic majorities in the two houses ot the Fifty-third Congress. If the Democratic party uses the power intrusted to It to wipe out class distinction in the tariff taxes, to knock off unearned profits from manufactured .goods and enhance the prices of fafin products by opening the markets of the world to the West and South to buy and sell in, the whole country will be prosperous and the Democratic lease in Washington will be a tong one. If tbis Is not done, if the tariff is not radically reformed in the interest of the consumer and of wider markets for the products of American farms, the only thing certain, is that the work of reform will be turned over to rougher hands. The election returns of 1890 and 1892 say this much as plain as print Enormous as their yield already is, the farm lands of the United States are not half developed. The men who till them are shut out by their environments from recourse to the devices by which, in many other industries, the output is kept down and prices up. They follow a natural law in sowing and reaping all they can, and their only way of salvation lies in finding purchasers for all that they ■produce. That is an ideal which may never be attained, but the nearest approach to it can be made only by giving -everybody a chance to buy wbat they ■ have to sell; in other words, by throwing down the Chinese wall of protection and allowing people who have anything that we want to send it here and take Viur farm products—our chief exports—ln exchange for it. This was the .principle of the Walker or free trade tariff, under which the United States throve as they never throve before or since, and a Speedy return to that principle is the only way to solve economic and political problems that are becoming graver than some wise men in Washington believe. The emotional era of American politics is closed. Thp era at hand is of dollars and cents, and the problem •it has to solve is to keep mercenaries and parasites from consuming the -substance of unfavored producers by juggling with the treasury and the •taxing power of the United States. This problem will be solved. It is for -Democratic-• members of the Fifty-first Congress to decide in the ■next few months whether it is the Democratic party that shall furnish •the solution. If the Democratic party is to do it at all, it must before the close of the first regular session of the Fifty-third Congress, enact into law the reforms that the people voted on on the Bth of November last. It is not a day too soon for members to begin to think about these things. St. Louis Republic.

Glove Manufacturers Not Soared. Since the Reform Club has made public its proposed tariff bill, with duties of 25 per cent, on the great bulk of dutiable articles, the protectionists have been predictingolreful things if such a bill should become law. The New York Press sets up a calamity howl about, the proposed 25 per cent, duty on gloves. It says: “This would be a death blow to one of the most prosperous industries of this State. In Fulton County alone fully 3,000 persons depend for a livelihood, either entirely or in part, in glove making. The 25 per cent, tariff would drive the industry out of existence. “The labor cost of glove making is something like 150 per cent: more in this country than in Europe. The propose to meet this by a 25 per cent, duty, or one-sixth of the difference between the foreign and American wage rates. Under this schedule the foreign manufacturers would take complete possession of the American markets and close every glove-making establishment,in the country.” As this is a sample of the thousands of howls started by the out-of-power Republicans, it may be well to analyze It to see what truth, if any, it contains. We will let the manufacturers have the floor. Lucien Littauer, the largest manufacturer of gloves in Fulton County and in theUnitedStates, saidin 1888; “We can do just as well, pay our employes just as high wages, and conduct just as prosperous a business under a 40 per cent. (Mills bill) as undet a 50 per cent, tariff. • All this is demonstrable if a man will sit down and think it out for himself.” ilr. D. B. Judson, of Fulton County, th? oldest and greatest manufacturer, and, until within a few years, the largest manufacturer of gloves in this country, said in 1888: “Under a 40 per cent, tariff we shall S' ill have an advarftage over foreign anufacturers of from 60 to 75 cents per dozen. That is to say, we will continue to pay about double the wages paid in England, and turn out gloves and mittens at Trom' 60 to 75 J cents a dozen cheaper than the English manufacturers. As a matter of fact, the tariff does not affect the manufacture of heavy gloves—the gloves for the million, I mean.” Another manufacturer, alsoof Glov- ■ ersville, Fulton County, and one of the five largest there, s»d in 1891: “There is no real foreign competi- j tion on more than ten per cent, of the goods sold here. Fully two-thirds of the heavy goods made in the United States are of a class of goods neither produced nor consumed anywhere else in the world. Gloves to protect the hands of common laborers are un- -

known outside of this country. Morel than ninety per cent, of the ladles’ gloves Imported are of acla w sufgoods] not made here, nor will they be in your or my time.” There seems to be a slight difference,of opinion between the Press and these manufacturers. What the Press may have meant, and what It should have said, wa« that wages are 150 per cent higher here than in Europe. But wages differ from labor cost as much gs steam differs from a steam engine. . A highly effective modern steam engine, under high pressure, produces greater effects and uses less steam than an old style ineffective engine, under low pressure. Highly skilled labor, with high wages, produces greater results, than unskilled labor and low wages. Hence the highly skilled labor is cheaper. This is evident from the fact that the high-wage labor of England has for generations been more than able to compete with the low-wage labor of the rest of Europe and of Asia. England’s manufactured products sell in all parts ot the world. But it so happens, in the case of gloves, that nearly half of the ®16,■OOO,OOO worth annually consumed, and fully two tbirds of those made here, are men’s heavy gloves, neither made nor worn in any other country. That this part of the industry would not be driven out of existence by a 25 per cent, or by any other duty is clear from what Mr. Judson and many others say. Heavy gloves are, in spite ot high wages, like boots and shoes, actually made cheaper in tills than in any other country. But then this is the year for the Press and other good Republican papers to close up factories, extinguish industries, and lower wages, and If they sometimes become overzealous and make leaky statements, we Should remember that calamity howling is at present their only occupation, as future calamity is their only salvation, and not criticise them too severely. The country must go to the dogs under free trade or the proteo tlonists are lost —Byron W. Holt. Reform the Tariff. If Democrats do not soon give the farmers relief, another party will do so. The abnormally lowprioes of grain and the ebbing markets for cotton while the prices of all manufactured goods are kept at high-water mark by a class tariff make a 'condition of things that’eannot last forever. The agricultural interests of the United States and the interests immediately dependent upon and identified with them are strong enough to’overthrow any system that oppresses 4hem, and sooner or later they will do it. Whether the remedy shall come on lines of conservatism and broad wisdom, or with the energy of blind Samson, depends largely on the'Democratic majorities in the two> houses of the Fifty-third Congress. If the Democratic party uses the power intrusted to it to wipe out class distinction in the tariff taxes, > to'knock off unearned profits from manufactured goods and enhance 'the prices* of farm products by opening the markets of the world to the West and South to buy and sell in, the-whole country will be prosperous and,the Democratic lease tn Washington will'be along one;

If this is next done; :if 'the tariff is not radically reformed in the interest of the consumer and of 'Wider markets for the products of American farms, the only thing certain is that the work of reform will be turned over to rougher hands. The election returns of 1890 and 1892 say this much as plain as print ■ a Enormous as their yield already is, the farm lands of the United States are not yet half developed. The men who till them are shut out by their environment from recourse to the devices by which, i* many other industries, the output is kept down and prices up. They follow a natural law in sowing and reaping all they can, and their only way of -salvation lies In finding panabases for all that they produce. That Is an ideal wihich may never be attained, but the nearest approach to it can be made oinly by giving everybody a chance to buy what they have to sell; in other words, by throwing down the Chinese wall of protection and allowiug people who have anything that we want to send it here and take our farm products—our chief exports—in exchange for It. ThiS was the principle of the Walker or Free Trade tariff, under which the United States throve as they -never throve before or since, and a speedy return to that principle is -the only way to solve economic and political problems that are becoming graver than some wise men in Washington believe. The emotional era of American politics is closed. The era at hand is of dollars and cents, and the problem it has to sdTve is to keep mercenaries and parasites from consuming the substance of unfavored "producers by juggling with the Treasury and the taxing power of the United States. This problem will be solved. It is for Democratic inembers of the Fiftythird Congress to decide in the next few months whether it is the Democratic paity that shall furnieh the solution. If the Democratic party is to do it at all, it must before the elose of the first regular session of the Fifty-third Congress enact into law the reforms that the people voted on the Bth of November last. It is not a day too soon for members’to begin to think about these things. The San Francisco Examiner (Dem.) would like to see an extra session of Congress called before September. “McKinleylsm,* it says, “Is not entitled to one day's grace from the Democracy. It is a thing of small moment to the people who shall be Minister to England or Nicaraugua, who Collector of Customs at this port or that, or who Postmaster in New York, San Francisco, cr Squashopolis, but it is a thing of vital moment to the people that they should be compelled to pay thieving McKinley prices for the necessaries and comforts of life, and that the business of the nation should be confused by uncertainty as to the future. ” What you leave at your death let it be without controversy, else the lawyers will be your heirs.—F.

The Worrt Thing to Do and (ho Mort ftensible. i ‘•Commenting on a burning caau.ilty in Philadelphia, ty which a young lady lost her life, tho Public Zei/taf ro-akca these pertinent observations: Th* first thing to tench a girl in this matter is that fire makes headway more rapidly in burning clothes when the endangered person is standing up. The difference in progress between a burning lamplighter of twisted paper held in the hand perpendicularly, flame down, and in the same paper laid flat on a. marble hearth can be seen in a moment. The first thing to do when clothing catches fire is to lie flat and cover up the flames, if thqre is nothing within reach to smother it. If, as is probable, there wai a bed in the room where Miw Manship was standing, getting into the .bed, between the blankets, and rolling up in them, would have been a sure way of putting ont the fire in a burning skirt or sleeve. The worst, the very worst, thing to do was to run down stairs. Opening the door made on« draught, the flight down stairs another, and rushing out intq the street, in the last frenzied moment, the worst of all. The impulse to get out of doors is very strange in all such cases, because within the house there are always means for putting out a fire, and outside there are none. Rugs, rag carpet torn off tho kitchen floor, a heavy overcoat, blankets from the beds, even pieces of bedside carpet, put roand the person in the twinkling of an eye, while water pailsand pitchers are there to hand, ready to be emptied. In every case let the person whose clothes or hair has caught fire throw herself flat upon the floor and roll upon 'the flame. If there is anything in the room of thick woolen or carpets to smother it, even a gossamer waterproof cloak, snatch these and smother the fire while calling for help. If the fire has caught in the hair, bury the head in the bedclothes. Fire cannot barn without air, and by shutting out all sir from the flames they must go out. But an open door fans the flames, and a standing position gives them headway. Girls are much more liable, from their long, flowing hair, their cotton aprons, Mid, altogether, thinner and more loosely bouffant dress, to be sat ion tire than boys, whose stout cloth jacklets are not easily ignited. The ruler Ifcr putting out tire in burning clothing may not be taught in the normal school, but every teacher ought to know them, and so thoroughly that even the fright of mounting flames will not drive them out of mind.

Diamonds on Shoes. “Do you know that, when vour shoes glisten with a polish they are really covered with diamonds?” asked a shoemaker tfie other day of oneof his patrons. “This is true,” be continued, “and I will show you why. Bone dust, which is the principal ingredient in shoe blacking, is almost pure carbon. The diamond, you know, is the purest form of carbon. When this paste has been smeared -over your shoes the friction of the polishing brush crystallizes the blacking and converts it iuto millions of infinitesimally small diamonds, and every man with a shine on his shoes mav revel in the knowledge that be wears a cluster of diamonds on his feet.”—Philadelphia Record. The Beteterem Atlantis Is a terror to timid wyaßers, scarael-y less on account ot the perils of tfie deep than the almost certainty ot sea-sickness. The best curative ot mat de mer is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which settles the stomach at once and prevents Its disturbance. To all travelers and tourists, whether by sea or land, it presents a happy tnedium between the nauseous or ineaectual reseuroeaoi the medicine chest, and the problematiowfbeneflt derivable from an unmedlcafed alcoholic stimulant, no-matter how pure. The jarring ot a railroad car-often produces stomachic disorders akin to that caused by the tolling of a ship. For this the Bitters is a prompt and -certain remedy. The use of a brackish water, particularly on long voyages in the tropics, inevitably breeds disorders of the stomach and bowels. Hoetetter’s Stomach Bitters mixed with impure water nullifies its impurities. Similarly it counteracts malarial and other prejudical influences of climate or atmosphere, as well as the effects of exposure and fatigue. Uee it for kidney complaints, rheumatism and debilttv. Toe Practical. “There is but ooe step from the sublime to the ridiculous.” A short time ago, at a penny reading in a small country town, a young gentleman'was reciting, much to his own satisfaction, if not to that of his audience, Macaulay’s wellknown “Battle ot Ivry.” With great military fevor he was thundering out tire lines: “A thousand spurs are striking deep, A thousand spears in rest; A thousand knights are pressing close Behind ” when a voice from the back seats was heard to shout: “Old ’ard, guVnor. Why, that's only one spur apiece for them ’ere knights!’ ” —Loudon Tit-Bits.

An L’ndergronHd Country. Traveler* and scientists are greatly Interested in the recent discovery of wonderful caves on the island of Corsica. A miner who undertook to explore them a few weeks ago found It Impossible to do so. He discovered various small caves close together, which led to a mammoth 'avo some distance from the original openingsThe roof of the mammoth eave was between sixty and seventy feet high. After traveling underground for some time he came upon an immense lake, which made further progress impossible. According to his estimates, the lake is situated under the mountain chain La Revellata, near Calva, and gets its water from the ocean. In support of his theory asinall grotto was discovered on Cape Revellata, on a level with the sea, which is believed to be connected with the caves. Some people estimate the length of the caves along the coast at thirty miles. An Imprestiontat Sketch. One of the good deacons of a certain church is also the superintendent ot the Bunday Schoo), and although he is not an artist he frequently illustrates points in the lesson by the use of the blackboard.
