Hair a Loaf I* No Bread. Vre have been treated recently to t curious spectacle by certain democratic senators who have subscribed with much unction, to the forcible declara tions of the Chicago platform of that party in 18U2, that a tariff for protec tion is unconstitutional. 1 he gentlemen have suddenly found 1 that there were certain local interests whose very existence and capacity to furnish labor to their communities de pended upon modification of the Wilson bill as it came from the house. 1 In spite of their repeated and vocifer ous professions of allegiance to all the principles a tax being a robbery, and un import tax for protecting our home industries being worst of all, they have been compelled by cold, hard facts to go before their caucus committee hav ing the bill in chnrire and v threaten to defeat it pn the senate floor if they are not taken care of. This is extremely juicy democratic docline, and seems to .an impartial outside observer— a republican, for instance, and one of those who have not been brought up to think protection a sin and an offence against the constitution, as a danger ous breaking away from the guiding strings of the Honorable Larry Neal. There are, however, two other phazes of this matter. One is that it bids fair to make an entering wedge into a crack in the center of that article so often re ferred to as democratic harmony and split that venerable fossil clear up the back, to the shirt collar, so to speak. This is to be depreciated. For as all must know, democratic opposition to a tariff is no high moral grounds, because, don’t you know, its wrong. To allow any question of mere local, . personal, state election, etc., questions of expe diency to be brought in would be des ecration—for a democrat. They must by force of all their logic stand to their guns until they are ready to flop clear over and go squarely and honestly and maintain, as did Mr. Ran dall, that there are such things in the democratic party as protectionists. At presen tt here is the best of authority for stating that no legitimate, lawful democratic protectionists are in exist ence. They are all dead. They were formally decapitated at Chicago when Mr. Neal got in his work and there has been no legal, from a party standpoint, resurrection since. Some one should throw cold water down the backs of their necks or turn on a shower bath so they could see just where “they are at,” when they attempt to graft on, or bud into, an alleged free trade revenue bill special protection for their own localities, because they have‘‘a pull,” and are ready and determined to use it or defeat the bill. Some of the more docile, the more easily satisfied, or who have had their pie from other plates, may also get res tive and do likewise. Some of them may feel that they have risked their senatorial necks for too small a return in patronage and may go on a strike. There is another phase of this question which these hustling democrats seem to forget. They have played hard be fore the star chamber sub-committee ] for a little, for a small duty, or a small increase, so as to appease their constit uencies and save them from ruin. They have overlooked one fact. In matters of tariff it is cheaper to pay a good price and get a good article than to buy shoddy at half price. For instance a duty that is high enough on any article, say calico, will encourage, all over this broad land, in New England and in the south and west, the erection of many factories to supply our vast home market. With an assured duty they have only,to de vote their time and energies to perfect ing machinery, reducing cost of opera tion, freights, commissions, etc., so as to bring the cost down to the people, to the vast mass who use this article, year by year until, as now, the price is lower than ever known, lower than ever ex pected, lower in New York and at the mills than the dreaded import duty wmcn, oy aemoerauc iree trade rules, should raise the price to consumers so that they and not the foreigner should pay the tax. Behind the protection of a reasonable and sufficient duty our people have let themselves loose, have gone into it on a large and more di versified scale, and have pushed it with so much enthusiasm and skill that to day the wholesale price is not a frac tion of a mill higher than the import duty on foreign calicos. That is what a reasonable protective tariff has done. Let us look at sugar. It is an article which enters into the daily life of every one, is an important item of expense in every household, poor or rich. No other question is of more frequent ask ing than that of the farmer's wife: ‘‘Uow many pounds of sugar can we get for a dollar?” Of course the farmer and his wife ask each other ques tions quite as vital in household economy as do the dwellers in and workers in villages and towns They will ask these questions of our esteemed democratic reformers next summer and fall. But to return to the sugar matter. In an article at universal use and necessity a fairly in telligent public spirit would favor any reasonable action which would at oncer make it cheap to the masses and at the same time foster and build up our pro duct so as in time we might become wholly, or in part at least, independent of Cuba, Germany and other foreign countries for our sugar supply. It Is not good national principles to remain supinely dependent on a foreign market when we could by proper legislation become reasonably independent within our own border by the development at our own resources. This is the result obtained by the ,present sugar schedule and bounty. Sugar is free on importation, it is cheap to .the masses and, what is much more to our national advantage, we are us ing the resources of sky and sail and arms,and skill which God has given us to.increase our product in this house hold necessity. We of the north do not begrudge Lou isiana and Texas the bounty paid on their sugar, nor that for once m four decades they are making fair returns on their investment and increasing their output. Nor will he who sees the vast plains of Kausas and Nebraska, tot to mention others, regret that by a bounty these sections may now produce sorghum and beet sugar so as to revolu tionize in a decade if let alone the su gar product of the world. Now' these senators have got a little help—just a little—all they dare ask for and could squeeze at the point of a threat of a hostile vote from the l commit tee and they hug the delusion to themselves that half a loaf is better than no bread and that these In* dustriea will "get along” some way and bot be entirely ruined. They tor get that a duty not large enough to in sure a good start or lair play will not be sufficient inducement lor enough to enter or continue it to keep prices down or the lorelgn article out. There will be no healthy home competition to cut prices ever lower and lower each successive year. On the contrary it will enable a lew—a lavored lew—to hold on by their eyelids, while the bal ance is made up by imports. Trices in the meantime cannot be reduced and that healthy home competition which has so revolutionized prices and busi ness will be conspicuously wanting. It may not be certain death but it will be certain destruction to most in the long run. When these senatorial democratic trimmers get hold ol (he whole situation and when their constit uents arrive at the same point in the study and operation ol this mill tor there will be a grand lulling out and the truth ol the heading* “A Hall Loaf is No Bread.” will be made so plain that they will have to go clear over to republican protection or stultily them selves in the minds ol all thinking pec plo. Protection Which Do**# Not Protect. The democrats of the senate commit tee have been compelled by the insis tent pressure of certain southern indus tries, and other industries which could command democratic votes in the sen ate, as coal and iron ore and coke in West Virginia and Alabama, lead ore in Missouri, collars and cuffs in New York and pottery in New Jersey, to either restore these to the duitable list or increase the duty Used by the house. Much of this will make a fool’s para dise for those trusting constituents who return home thinking they have saved something at least out of the general wreck and ruin planed for the rest of the country. These gentlemen will, however, find that there is a sort of protection-so called, which does not protect. The fundamental idea of imposing a duty for any purpose other than for produc ing a revenue is to lay such duty so as to enable home manufacturers to build up home production. As a general rule, it may be stated that only a high duty offers sufficient inducement to enough people so as to obtain a healthy and active home campetition and to re duce the home selling price so as to en able our own buyers to get the advan tage. If the duty is just about the differ ence between the original home cost and the foreign cost only a few special ly favored will go into the manufacture. If, however, it be ample and have prom ise of stability, many, and in different sections, will eageraly embrace the op portunity and in a short space of time the fierce domestic competition will put the price away below what it sold for before the imposition of the duty. The obvious point of the above is that a tariff to protect must afford sufficient margin to tempt many to embark in the enterprise so as to, by stimulating inventions of labor-saving machinery and more economical processes of man ufacture, enable our people to produce these goods at a reduced price and still gain a fair return from their invest ment. In the new tariff bill, frantic democratic senators have insisted on some, even if slight, duties or increases on certain articles such as coal and coke, iron ore, lead ore, etc., hoping that thus they could retain their local support, save these industries and be returned to congress. They may get south; a few may from the north, but before this is definitely settled, they will have to face a few awkward facts. Whenever the. duty is reduced to, or nearly to, the danger point, the sur plus. stock now held abroad will be dumped on our shores .under the facile interpretation of the ad valorum duties in such a way as to put the usual fair home profit out of sight. These indus tries may Survive for awhile, may run for a time at a loss, but not always. The day of balances will soon come and when these are struck and show a posi tive and prospective loss, a halt will be called; production will be stopped; hands will be turned out from work shops, and we will all get sick purchas ing cheaper foreign shoddy goods and sending out wheat and raw cotton and gold abroad to pay for them. While our operatives are idle, the mills will deteriorate and after a year or more of this fool's paradise, we will wake to find that prices of our beloved foreign goods are stiffening; not at once, nor in all lines, nor in all places, but little by little as the traffic will ad mit. if in one section longer purses or more hopeful owners keep up the struggle, these will lower prices and increased imports consigned to order, swamp our home products. To illustrate—Sugar is now a profit able industry in Louisiana and its future full of hope if the present bounty was to be retained. All through the northwest sorghum is making rapid strides and beet root production bade fair to make us wholly independent of Cuba and Germany for our immense sugar supply. The Louisiana senators have put a small duty on imported sugar, thinking, perhaps, that this may save their planters from ruin, while the sorghum and beet root producers of the west may shuffle for themselves Their expectations will be found vain nod the result of the small duty will simply be aa aggravation. It will be . too much hair for good soap, and not enough for plaster. The small revenue will not help the government much. Jit will be of uo value at all to th« sugar industry. They will find a loss not so great as with no duty, but enough to curtail their output and force them to abandon their costly planta tions with machinery, etc., and let the American people look wholly to the outside world for their future sugar supply. No one can defend such a proposition. It is not enough tariff to protect; it is just enough to produce a small revenue to the government and bring to our sugar industry, lingering instead of speedy death. The ultimate result will be the same in either event. If free trade is right and is demo cratic doctrine, jet them stand by their guns. If protection is needed, then do it so it will protect and not damn with faint praise. A Georgia undertaker has adopted a novel method for increasing his busi ness.

Some wiseacre proposes to rend worn* «n’s character by tier mouth. Here are the rules to be observed : If her month is very small there is not much mind, but overmuch shallow sentiment. If she has a very large month she will pos sess a good brain, but the trouble is in kissing it. Large mouths put a man to an artistic test; he will be driven to his wits’ end whether to begin at one corner and conclude on the other, or to make a heroic dash at the middle and endeavor to reach both corners. But if you are a kissing ortiBt it con be covered nicely enough. If your sweetheart has a coarsely formed mouth she will be sens ual and full of strong, coarse points of character, and will raise a row in the familv. if she has a delicately formed mouth, with rounded lips and of a vel vety color, she will have much sensibil ity and perfection of character, but will not astonish by her brilliancy of concep tion or execution. It is a good mouth because it is kissable and submissive. Shun blue-lipped or thin-lipped women; they will bore you to death with litera ture or woman's rights, theorize while you want your dinner, or spoil your tem per by their red-hot scolding tonguea. E.

When I began taking your medicine I could not sit up, only a few minutes at a time, I was so weak. I took Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription three times per day, I also took his' Golden Medical Discovery’ three times per day and one of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets every night. I have taken seven bottles of the ‘ Discovery,’ seven bottles of the 1 Prescription ’ and five bottles of the ‘ Pellets.’ I took those medi cines seven months, regularly, never missed a day. These medicines cured me. I feel as well as I ever did in my life. Four of the hot doctors in the land treated my case four years.
