FRIDAY DECEMBER 28 1887 Ii tered at the poeteffice at Rensselaer, Indag aeeond-ciass matter.)

Thanks to U. 8. Senator Turpie for favors. Mr. Cleveland favors “cheap blankets.” Jingo Blaine is in lavor of a “cheap chaw.” Our friends, Senator T. ompson and M. F. Chilcote, attorneys, represented the labor interests of Jasper county in the late Republican convention at Indianapolis No wonder laboring men smile.

A few days since a .Republican convention was held at Indian ipolis. It bemoaned the fate of the agr cultural and labor interests, and was loud in advocacy of high taxes as a means of protection.— While the convention was eng ged in these exercises, the managers of certain protected industries in P*nnsvlvanis were employed in devising plans to enable them to evade the United States laws vs. foreign contract labor, that they might fill the places of laboring men, who had struck for living wages, with pauper labor from Belgium mines. At the same time, too, district granges were holding sessions in different parts of this State, and resolved very strongly in favor of President Cleveland’s tariff recommendations.

In a recent interview, at J. N. McCullough, oj Pittsburgh, vice President of the Pennsylva_ ilia Railroad, said that the Presi dent's message has not created tha kind of a stir in Pennsylvania that the outside world seemed to imagine. Pennsylvanians beLeve in a protective tariff because of its great manufacturing interests, but Pennsylvanians also believe that the taxes ought to be redu ed. “I think it can be done safely, and I have traveled over the country pretty entensively I find that the sentiment is with President Cleveland because he has brought the issue squarely before the people.’’

Pennsylvania Farmers and the Tariff.

The Pennsylvania State Grange last week in session at Harrisburg had a sensation in the shape of a very powerful report from it State Overseer, Mr. i. S. McSpar row, of Lancaster county, sustaining roundly and effectively the President’s plan of revenue reform. There is no reason that we know of why this delive .’epee of Overseer Mr Sparrow should have Caused a sensation, except that it occurred in Pennsylvania, and in a body whose platform on simila occasions, has generally been < c cupied by certain very loud and ob'rusivo advocates of a Chinese tariff That these latter do o; represent the views of the ph n dered farmers of Pennsylvania any more than they do those of any other section of the country, 1 s apparent from the reception accorded Mr. McSparrow’s s< nsib’e and courageous report. The Overseer did not, like so many oth ir farmers, haggle and protest at the wool enormity, while anxiously seeking relief from other enormous taxes. A reliable report of his speech says: He appealed to the farmers not to be misled on the raw material, and gave figures to show that to prote t a wool industry amounting to $45,000,000 th people pay as consumers an excess of 146,000,000. TbeD h * quoted from figures showing the ass ssed vUr a tion of farms t</. la tat - o Vi.g'it discrlai

nations, unjust taxations and high tariffs are crippling the agricultural resources. From 1850 to 1800, „nder low tariff, farms increased 100 per cent, in valuation; irom 1860 to 1870, under high tariff, 41 per cent., and from 1870 toIW also under high tariff, only » per cent He opposed the repeal ot the internal revenue tax, and labored tariff reform, but not indiscriminate free trade. The Overseer is supported in his course by the exceptionally able and thoroughly infoimed State Lecturer and Senator, Gerard C. Brown, from York. It was intended by the tariff mongers to induce the State grange of Pennsylvania to pass a resolution condemning the President’s message, and declaring that the farmers were extremely anxious to continue the contribution of all the surplus earnings of their industry toward the maintenance of the tariff monopoly. But the does not seem to have. prospered; tho*e who had it in charge nad not counted on an encounter with farm, ers enlightened upon ther: own int rests, and led by such men as Brown and McSparrow. Those gentlemen have done a good day’s work for their order. — The Grange is capable of an infinite amount of good, but it can accomplish none unless it opens its eyes to the light of the new day which has dawned upon the naturally productive industries of the country. —N. Y. Star.

Theory of the Coal Barons.

Newark (N. J.) News: The coal operators have forced up +he price of coal about SI.SS a ton, but are still una'Je tr to afford an advance of 3§ cents per ton to the miners in tho Lehigh district. The Pennsylvania theory of “prolection to native industry” in that section seems to take the shape of protecting the families of the unemployed agains* the evils of gluttony at Christmas time. The coal barons are determined that the families of labordug men shall ndther over-eatnor •be over-heated this winter.

Official Encouragement of Talent.

A fact noticed in the Belgian correBp mdence of one of the Parisian pa pers affords another illustration of the inefficacy of the official encouragement of talent by the state. The King of the Belgians has regularly offered every year, for the last ten years, a prize of £I,OOO for the best work on some subject of general interest, the greatest latitude of choice being allowed the candidates, provided ‘the work came within the sufficiently comprehensive category of “oeuvres d’intelligence. ” During the whole ten years the prize has only been awarded once. Year after year the jury appointed to decide on the merits of the different essays sent in have had to make the melancholy return that not one of them came up to a decent standard. Macaulay (himself a writer of prize poems) has somewhere said that prize sheep are only fit to make candles of, and prize poems to light them with. Young Ox* ford would probably object to the diotum; but in Belgium, if prize essM’s and prize poems may be placed' on tne same footing, it would seem to be in part true. —Pall Mall Gazette.

Their Business Booming. Probably no ono thing has caused sacb a general r vival of trade at F B. Meyer’s Drug Store as their giving away to their customers of so many free trial bottles of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption.

An old forty-niner says of gold hunfr ing: ‘‘lt’s the fascination of it. Lor’, man, when you’ve struck it pretty rich and can see yer gold right in front of youj when you’re piling it up every hall hour o’ the day, with a nugget now and again as big as a bullet to cheer you, and then when the evenin’ comes and you count it up and find a hundred odd dollars just picked out o’ the earth that day—well, ther# ain’t nothin’ like it. Then, when you don’t strike it rich, you always think you’re goin’ to next day, an’ it’s just as exciting hearin 1 other men tell in the evenin’ what they pulled out as it is countin’ over your own. Why, I’ve been three and four months at a time without making a dollar and without a cent iti my pocket; but, gee-whittaker! the excitement of it don’t give a man twice to think how hard up he is.” Wonderful Cures.

An enterprising tobacconist in Eon don, whose name was Far, advertised himself and his wares simultaneously by writing up in conspirtious lettering cTve'i his store, “The best tobacco by Far.” A rival on the opposite side of the way not to be outdone, at once proclaimed the superiority of his stock by advertising, “ Far better tobacco than the best tobacco by Far. ” This reminds the New York Mail of the story of the miner who, returning from the far West to civilization, saw a sign up outside a show. “ The largest bear in the world.” After paying his twenty-five cents and enj >y mg the sight, he noticed another sicn across the street, “Lager beer,” and at once returned and demanded liis men y back, on the ground that it had bee extorted under false pretences, as ther was a larger bear over the way.

August is said to be one of the tin* lucky months to get married in. A close observer has discovered that the year is evenly divided in this respect, there being just twelve lucky and twelve unlucky months. Some people ascribe the misfortunes of marriage to the influence of the moon; but they are probably less attributable to Luna than to the lunatics. “I’m Jnst Goins Down to the Gale” and <Q/3T* other Popular Ballads, in book form, size CVv# of Sheet Music.
