A picnic is not a success unless there Is pie to throw away. Most people just drag along until it is time for them to die. A laugh is an awfully good bluff to make when troubles appear. A man never knows what is coming until it gets right on to him. There is one thing to the credit of old maids ; they accumulate no kin. .

There are lots of men who are pretty in society , but who are as absolutely useless as dried currants.

Representatives of the Atlantic coast shipping interests met in Philadelphia July 3 , to take action toward "scouring equitable protection , through national legislation , for agriculture and ship- ping. " Among the resolutions passed was the following : Resolved , That since neither of the two great unprotected industries can derive any benefit from a tariff on imports - ports , we call upon Congress to equalize - ize the protection system by extending to agricultural staples and American shipping in the foreign trade that just measure of protection to which they are entitled , as long as protection is the controlling and public policy of this nation , and that this be done by an export - port bounty on the staples of agriculture - ture and to American shipping in the foreign trade , either by a bounty on tonnage or a differential duty which shall discriminate in favor of American and against foreign ships , all to the end that a restoration may be brought about of our merchant marine and that the independent land-owuing farmers of the nation may not be driven into bankruptcy and ruin by the competition of the cheap land and labor countries of the world. " This resolution is incorrect. Both the agricultural and shipping industries can derive benefit from a tariff on im- ports. It was by a tariff on imports , a 'discriminating tariff , that the American - ican shipping interests were once so prosperous. By a similar tariff on imports - ports , a discriminating tariff , American - ican shipping can again be restored. And we are heartily in favor of the renewal of this policy , which , is so simple and thoroughly effective. To say that the agricultural industries - tries of the country derive no benefit from a tariff on imports is equally un- true. What has been the experience of farmers who grow wool or hops for instance - stance ? The necessity for a protect- Ire tariff on foreign farm products will become more and more apparent with each coming year as the farm supplies of India , Austria , South America and Russia increase in quantity and seek markets for their surplus. We believe in giving both to agriculture - ture and to shipping "that just measure - ure of protection to which they are entitled - titled , " but we do not believe in doing so to the exclusion of the products of our forests , our mines or our factories , all of which were totally ignored by the shipping and agricultural representatives - tives at Philadelphia. Our farm products are the finest in the world , as are the products of our shipyards , the manufactures of our shipbuilders. Mr. Charles II. Cramp , the great ship manufacturer of Philadelphia - delphia , does not believe it would be a good thing if the United States were a manufacturing country alone. We quite agree with Mr. Cramp and we are glad that we are able to produce almost every article of consumption that is a necessity and a comfort to our daily life. life.As As Mr. Cramp well knows , we can build in this country steamships second to none in 'the world. It is equally true of our sailing 1 essels. The idea that we cannot build iron vessels is rubbish. We have the iron and we have the steel in abundance and of the best quality. It was not so much the superiority of the iron and steel vessels that caused the English shipyards to give up building wooden vessels as it was their inability to secure an ahuntl- ant supply of the proper kind of timber needed in shipbuilding at as low a cost as they could procure the iron and steel. The English shipbuilders were looping - ing for cheapness in construction. That was the general reason why they .abandoned wooden ships and gave the preference to those built of iron and steel. Without protection to our iron and steel interests Mr. Cramp would not today be able to manufacture the splendid specimens of naval architect- are of which his shipping yards are capable.-Afllerican Economist. Twenty seven ] vise Men of .Manchester. A wholesome lesson may be learned , even at this distance , from a brief relation - tion of what befell twenty-seven unwise - wise silk manufacturers of Manchester , Eng. something more than a quarter of a century ago. Tariff revisionists ( downward ) may also find a note of warning In the following bit of politico- economical history which has come to us through a valued English contemporary - porary : Prior to the adoption of the Cobden idea in England the silk manufacturers of that country were protected and fostered - tered by fairly adequate duties imposed upon foreign imports , which duties were , about 1850 , made the subject of a memorial by twenty-seven of the principal - cipal manufacturers of Manchester to Disraeli ( then Chancellor of the Exchequer - chequer ) , who , with the strange blindness - ness of the frogs who invited King Stork to come and reign over them , - , x , Arayed that the duty on foreign manufactured - factured silks might be at once abol- ished. They complained in their memorial - morial that their trade was in a depressed - pressed condition and their workpeople not fully employed ; regrettable facts which they ascribed to the limited nature - ture of the foreign demand for their goods , "and that this limitation is attributable - tributable to the protective duty imposed - posed on foreign silks imported into this country , the effect of such duty being to create an impression in the markets of the world that England is unable to compete with the Continental manufacturer In the production of silk goods , and thus to throw the export trade almost entirely into the hands of their French and Swiss competitors. " The frogs were hotly impatient to be ruled by King Stork. The twenty-seven Manchester manufacturers were no less Impatient for their doom. They begged in the same memorial that the duty might "be not partially and gradually but totally and immediately repealed , and thus to proclaim to the world that the Manchester silk manufacturer denounced - nounced the so-called protection and every aid a government can give ; that 1 he is prepared to depend solely on his own merits , and that he avows himself ! capable of taking a higher position in I the race of competition , unfettered by = protection , than he has hitherto attained - tained under Its fostering care. " Quos Deus vmilt perdure , prius de- mentat. This memorial was presented 1 in 1852 ; the duty was totally repealed 1n 1860 , and one of the most remarkable 1 results was that every one of twenty- ' seven firms was extinguished , not one being left to tell the horrid tale or to draw a parallel between the fate of the t malcontent manufacturers and that of I the fretful frogs.-The American Silk i Journal. The Tariff on Barley. I In 1832 a duty of 15 per cent ad va- lorem was placed upon foreign barley , and it was fixed at 20 cents a bushel in 1842. It was subsequently lowered Ito 10 cents , but advanced to 30 cents in 1590 , and the result was that our imports of barley fell off from 10,000,000 bushels to less than 2,000,000 bushels. The 30 per cent rate given barley in 1894 is only 14 cents specific. The production - duction of barley in the United States increased nearly 118 per cent in the past twenty years , from 32,000,000 bushels in 1873 to 69,869,000 bushels in i 1593. 1593.The The result has clearly proven that our protective policy In favor of this i important agricultural product was ; wise in the interests of the farmers I wi o were annually increasing the domestic - mestic output. By increasing the duty , on barley in 1890 we lost only about half a million of revenue , in return for which our farmers increased their products - ucts 15,000,000 bushels over the average for eight years. This increase in one year was worth at least $ G00,000 , making - ing the loss of revenue of trilling comparative - parative importance. I The tendency was to draw farmers away from wlieat and corn , just as t'he raising of beets for sugar would draw them away from cotton in Kentucky , Georgia , North and South Carolina and t Alabama. The gain in domestic barley - ley product , since the extra encouragement - ment given it in 1890 , ought to have guarded it. Was the duty lowered in 1894 in the interest of Russian and Canadian producers ? It certainly was a piece of legislation that the farmer's cannot regard with ftivor. i This subject was of concern to those who framed our first tariff law in 1789. At that time , when the subject of placing - ing a proper rate of duty on alebeer and porter was under consideration , Mr. Fitzsimmons thought the manufacture of those Iiquors "highly deserving of encouragement , " as calculated to inh- prove. the morals of the people as fos tering home manufacture. Mr. Lawrence - rence favored a duty on them high enough to give a decided preference to American beer , as it "would tend to'en- courage agriculture. because the malt and hops consumed in their manufacture - ture were the produce of our own soil. " Mr. Sinnickson favored a protective duty in order to increase the manufacture - ture and lessen the price , and inasmuch - much as the raw material was produced in this country , the agricultural interests - ests would be advanced. Mr. Madison moved a ( luty of S cents on beer. He did not think this would give a monopoly - ely , but hoped it would be such en- couragernent as to induce the manufacture - facture to take deep root in this country - try , in which case it would produce the collateral good ( agriculture ) hinted at by Mr. Sinnickson-the increase of barley - ley and hops. Not a word was said about revenue from agricultural prod- ucts. That was never a consideration with the true democracy.-American Economist. Mrs. Brice gave a garden party at Newport Wednesday to which there were trick dogs , a hypnotist , acrobats , and fortune tellers. Mrs. Brice may I have furnished excellent entertainment for her guests , but it was not to be compared to the garden party given by Senator Brice at Springfield , Ohio , the same day. The senator seems to have played the part of Svengali himself at the Ohio convention and the silver men were the fortune tellers predicting defeat - feat November. There were many democratic acrobats present to turn double somersaults.-Inter Ocean.
