TnE recent speech of Senator Vest on
the Chinese question differs from his
usual efforts in the fact that it contains
one really graceful and interesting par
agrapah a quotation, to wit, from one
of the recent addresses of Hon. James G.
Blaine.
Senator Vest says that "the negroes'
today in Missouri count as nothing in our
political struggles." Dut it is a melan
choly fact, nevertheless, that Jlr. Vest
can not make as good a democratic
p peech as the colored orator. Col. Taylor,
and he may as well acknowledge it first
as last. Globe Democrat.
The democratic papers now concede
that if the falling off of the prohibition
vote noticed in many of the states this
year should extend to New York it would
have a serious effect ou the chances of
Mr. Cleveland. There can hardly 1e n
doubt that the prohibition strtpgih in
the latter state thw year will be mucli be
low that of the election of 1886. But
whether this will or will not be the case,
there is not the slightest probability that
the democrats can carry New York in
J 883. The free trade propaganda of tin
party, combined with the renomiuation
of Gov. Hill, has done the business foi
the democracy in the Empire state, and
thus in the country as a whole. Qlobp

HOW THE WAGE EARNERS
VOTED.
Gen. Harrison in his letter of accept
ance, speaking of the tariff question, very
truly said: " Our workingmen have the
settlement of the question in their own
hands." A little examination of the re
turns from Maine shows that the work
ingmen appreciate this fact, and are de
claring themselves forcibly against free
trade and lower wages. The vote of four
of the chief industrial centers of Maine
LewUton. Auburn, Saco and Biddeford
affords a basis for an instructive com
parison on. this point. Jn 1683 the vote
ot these cities, at the gubernatorial elec
tion, wa3 as follows:

The four citio3 combined give a demo
cratic majority of 58. Ig the election of
1884, which was calculated to bnutf out
the fullest republican vote, these citits
were returned as follows:
-.

Biddeford 1 &70

The totals gave a republican majority

cities voted as follows;

Aulinrn I -jm
Saco Mil MO
J'.iddeford 1 out 1 318
Total 4 8U 4 120
Here, then, we have e republican maj
oeity of 724. or more than double the
majority of 1884, and a gain of nearly
1,000 in the republican vote, as compared
with 1880. Tiuse figures tell their own
etory. They show that American work
ingmen arc thinking for themselves upon
the great question ortho tariff, and that
no "rrayof fallacies oKtheories of college
professors can beguile them into voting
for policy which would reduce tk?ir
wages and bring their condition down to
the level of the ill-paid labov of Europe.

mIO PA VS THE TARIFF DUTIES
William II. Grace, of Brooklyn, on
the question "Who must pay the duty?
will repay cireful pcrsual. It is signifi
cant that the article was excluded from a
Mugwump paper, although the discus
sion had been carried on in the columns
for some time, until Mr. Grace had his
adversary completely cornered, when the
paper came to the rescue by closing: its
columns against his clinching arguments.
By looking at the problem from the
sthandpoint of the foreign exporter, as
well as the American manufacturer and
wage worker, Mr. Grace shows at once
how ludicrous is the proposition of
Cleveland and Thurman that the con
sumer must ultimately pity the tariff
duties in the increased prices of the pro
tected articles. He lays down as an es
tahlishcd principle of political economy
recognized by all the eminent authorities
that "an exporter, trying to compete in a
loreign market witli goods the same as
his own, has to pay all the custom house
charges, cost of transportation, and every
expense incident to separation ot con
sumer and producer." That the home
competition inevitably prevents the keep
ing up of prices to a margin of profit be
yond that prevailing .in other channels
of investment he shows conclusively by
practical illustrations.
Jlr. Grace takes positive ground
against the cry for extra cheapness in
everything produced by labor and shows
that cheapness at the cost of labor is not
desirable for the countrv nor the wag-
worker, as has been illustrated by the
panics aud depressions following former
reductions of the tariff. lie confronts
the free trade allies of Cleveland today
with the testimony of the great founders
of our government who were strung pro
tectionists and predicts the defeat of 'the
present conspiracy against our industrial
svstem. The exclusion of the article un
der the circumstances was nn admission
that its arguments could not be answered.

ture tor instance. Thij wfttk is regarded
as :. Lrcmelv hazardous by those im fam
ilial with it, but the men who have been
ensured in it for years do not look upon
it in that light. As a matter of course, a
persy:i nut bepoino accustomed to the
work before ha can leinnin in a caisson
for any length of time. Fresh air is, of
course, constantly forced in the caissons,
while the foul air is sent out through the
blow pipe that carries out the eand de
posited under the water. Still the old.
est caisson men or 'mud hogs," as they
ore often termed, cannot remain at work
more than two or three hours.
We arrange the shifts when working
these men so as not to keep them down
more than an hour or two at the most.
Even then they get what they call the
Ii"r;j" t times. The hens" is a form
of 'asphyxia, and I can assure you it i? a
very serious ailment. Some time ago
one of the caisson men working on the
Omaha bridge, which our company is
now building, was prostrated as soon as
lie came out, and it proved io be one cf
the worst attacks seen by the men ac
customed to witnessing such sights in a
long time. When he reached the ground
ho fell, with the blood streaming from
his nose, ears and mouth, and wag w.el
nigh dead when the physicians reached
him. He finally recovered, however,
but had no further desire to go 'mud
bogging," as ho called it. I have been
in caissons on many occasions, but as I
do not remain down any length of time
I do not meet with severe consequences
Taken all in alL it is not tho healthiest
occupation a man can follow, but with
out caisson workers we could not have

The Iawi Governing Trices.
Pressor Leone Levi's literary execu
tors are preparing for publication a, grefc
deal of manuscript which the late pro
fessor left behind him, some of which
trill. I am told, create quite a sensation
Lri both scientific and financial circles.
Levi was for years a leading fellow of
the Statistical society cf London, and
perhaps taking him upon all" subjects he
was one of the foremost statisticians in
the world. I am told that for many
year pa& hp ha been investigating the
curve of probabilities, especially as. re
lating to prices of different commodities
and the laws governing the recurrence
of commercial crises, and that his work
upon this subject is so nearly complete
that it will shortly be given to the world.
Levi was a keen and accurate student
and a very conservative scientist, bo that
if a book of his upon thia subject appears
it will be received with a weight of au
thority which will make it a standard.
Levi is not the first student who lias
attempted to solve the problem of the
fluctuation of prices. Ricardo, who was "
also a Jew, is said f Q have made his large
fortune by hi3 mathematical work on the
problems afforded by the stock exchange.
Profossor De Morgan gave the subject
som tme, and Mr. Edgeworth worked
out a yery complicated forecast of "prob
able mercantile error," which, runs side
by side with the same problem. Some
time in the Twentieth century I suppose
mathematLs will be so advanced ttutt a
clerk will not be able to secure a- position
in a pork house until he can figure out
for his prospective employer what the

-The
Fate of "SupMU"
Mr. Borodin, a well known writer for the
Russian magazine, "Annals of the Father
land," was banished to the province of Ya
kutsk on account of the 4 'dun serous" and
"pernicious" character of a manuscript
found in his house by tho police during a
search. This manuscript was a copy of an
article upon the economic condition of the
province of Viatica, which Mr. Borodin had
sent to tho above named magazine, but which
up to that time had not been published. Mr.
Borodin went to Eastern Siberia in a con
vict's pray overcoat with a yellow ace of
diamonds on his back, and three or four
months after his arrival in Yakutsk he had
the pleasure of reading in the "Annals of the
Fatherland" the very same article for which
he had been exiled. The minister of the in
terior had sent him to Siberia merely for
having in his possession a "dangerous" and
"pernicious" manuscript, and then the St.
Petersburg committee of censorship had cer
tified that another copy of that same manu
script was perfectly harmless, and had al
lowed it to be published, without the change
of a line, in one of the most popular and
widely circulated magazines in tho empire.
A gentleman named Otchkin, in Moscow,
was exiled to Siberia by administrative pro
cess in 1885 merely because, to adopt the
language of the order which was Issued for
his arrest, he was "suspected of an intention
to put himself into an illegal position." The
high crime which Mr. Otchkin was "sus
pected of an intention" to commit was the
taking of a fictitious name in place of his
own. Upon what ground he was "suspected
of an intention" to do this terrible thing he
nover knew.
Another exile of my acquaintance, Mr.
Y , was banished merely because He was
a friend of Mr. Z , who was awaiting
trial on the charge of political conspiracy.
When Mr. Z 's case came to a judicial
investigation ho was found to be innocent
and was acquitted ; but in the meantime Mr.
Y , merely for being a friend of this in
nocent man, had gone to Siberia by adminis
trative process.
In another case a young student, called
Vladimir Sidorski (I use a flctious name),
was arrested by mistake instead of another
and a different Sidorski named Victor, whose
presence in Moscow was regarded by some
body as "prejudicial to social order." Vladi
mir protested that he was not Victor, that
he did not know Victor, and that his arrest
in the place of Victor was the result of a
stupid blunder; but his protestations were of
no avail. The police were too much occu
pied in unearthing "conspiracies" and look
ing after "untrustworthy" people to devote
any time to a troublesome verification of an
insignificant student's identity. There must
have been something wrong about him, they
argued, or he would not have been arrested,
and the safest thing to do with him was to
send him to Siberia, whoever he might be
and to Siberia he was sent. When the con
voy ofllcer cUed the roll of the outgoing ex
ile party Vladimir Sidorski failed to answer
to Victor Sidorski's name, and the officer,
with a curse, cried: "Victor Sidorski! Why
don't you answer to your name?"
"It is not my name," replied Vladimir,
"and I won't answer to it It's another Si
dorski who ought to be going to Siberia."
" v hat is your name then f
Vladimir told ' him. The ofllcer coolly
erased the name "Victor" in the roil of the
party, inserted the name "Vladimir" and re
marked cynically: "It doesn't make a d d
bit of difference i'' George Hennan in The

Treatment for Weak Eyesight.
Near sighted, small or blinking eyes should
have special treatment, the first care being
never to expose them to trying light. Small
bonnets and front light pouring into the face
from window or lamp are responsible for the
inferior, peering, uncertain eyes which
abound. To enlarge the cyo and to give it
a noble steadiness of glance it must be ren
dered strong and the general health im
proved. Dyspepsia weakens the eyes, and
good treatment for this is "liquid food" for
six weeks, with coarse toasted crackers, meat
broths, and grape juice or lemonade if it can
be borne. The use of grapes, lemons, and
sab rosa, of garlic and onions, has great ef
fect on the eye. Tuscan and provencals,
indeed all southern nations, owe their
smooth skins, rich hair, and large liquid eyes
to their diet of fruits, light wine, olive oil
and the great regulating food, onions and to
matoes. Chilly surroundings contract the
eyes with the rest of the flesh and injure ex
pression, '
Weak eyes and disordered stomach or kid
neys exist together, and these must be set
right before the eyes are good. The cool
douche across the loins and constant use of
green parsley are the best remedies. A jet
of weak salt water ateaspoonful of salt to
a half pint of water playing on the eyelid
or spraying the closed eye with a vaporizer,
strengthens and enlarges tho eye. Holding
the eyelids apart at the corners with thumb
and finger will enlarge the size of the eye in
time, being careful not tp ftet or inflame it.
Outdoor' work and uso are 'indicated for
every one with small, inferior looking eyes.
Open air pursuits, not carried to extremo
fatigue, will restore the balance of the sys
tem, which shows its Lent ia contracted or
gans and limited force. Jskiilful manipula
tion and training will cure near sight or far
sight to the poiDt of doing without glasses.
When books and papers are printed in pica
type, as they should be, much worthless mat
ter will be dispensed with, and poor sight
will be' almost unknown. ! True distilled rose
water is the best soothing lotion, and, next
to that, dew off the grass. Shirley Dare's

Gas for the Cash.
'They have a strange new kind of gas
meter in Paris,? remarked Gen. Hicken
loopci 1
"What is it likeP
"It is somewhat on tho principle of these
chewing gum boxes at the centennial, where
you drop a nickel in the slit and a stick of
gum Is measured out to you. In this meter
you drop a certain number of pennies in a
box and then that amount of gas is at your
service. If you want more gas another sou
must go into the box."
.'Xhat is a good Jdaa,"
Yes, it is an 'odd' trick. People are so
economical in France and so many of them
live from hand to mouth that I supposo that
such a meter just fills the bill. There is such
a large, floating population that if the gas
companies were not thus paid day by day for
the illumination furnished they might find it
hard to find any one at the end of a month to
present with a bill.'
"Going to try that kind of a meter heref
"Can't tell; still, I do not think we want
such a thing just yet in America. But it
wouldn't be a bad thing in some ways," and
the gentxal paused reflectively as be doub
less thought that with such' an automatic
cash receiving' meter there would be no un
paid gas biHs. Cincinnati Enquirer.
