The ass in the lion's skiii was
readily recoarnissed by his ears. The
noble beast's skin could not hide
them. So it is with Mr. Bryan of
this district. His distressing effort
at cheap notoriety as a revenue re
former needs only the passing
scrutin3' of the citizen to detect the
assanine ears. The following pas
sage from the remarks of Congress
man John Dalzell, of Pennsylvania,
during the tariff debate at the pres
ent session of congress full' illus
trates Mr. Bryan's cheap bid for the
farmers' support by the introduc
tion of his binding twine measure.
Mr. Dalzel' said:
"But the wounds of the farmer
are to be healed bv giving him free
binding twine. A more glaring at-
tempt than this to impose on the
uhty of the farmer could not
be conceived. The present law
calls for a duty of seven-tenths of a j
cent per pound on binding twine.
This twine is made from foreign
products, manilla, sisal grass and
jute, and from an American prod
uct, hemp. The raw materials of its
manufacture are free.
"Under the protection afforded
by the act of 1833, '21-j cents per
ponnd, an American industry was
built up, and we now have thirt--five
cordage and binding twine
factories that payout iu wages to
American workmen the - sum of
?2,0C0.000 annually. With what re
8iiK to the farmer? With this re
sult, that whereas, before protection
he paid 17 cents a pouud for his
binding twine, he. now pays. 72
ront?. and his entire "supply is fur
nt -'' :l by American manufacture,
y, even the Mills bill placed a
.ction equivalent at present
to 2 cents a pound on bitid-:-..ine,
but the new apostles of
glish doctrine for American
conditions would make it free.
Why? Because if there are no im
norlations there is no need for a
tariff. A brill'ant idea, truly! To
repeat my answer to the genteman
from Tennessee Mr. McMillin, be
cause your neighbor's hogs do not
come into your clover patch when
the fence is up, you should take
down the fence.
"Binding twine is made in India
at a cost of $5 per month for labor;
it is made in Belfast and Dundee at
half the cost for labor that it is with
us. The present bill is not even
good democratic doctrine. The
democratic platform of ISSi says:
"'The necessary reduction in taxation
can and must le effected without depriv
ing American labor of the ability to com
pete (successfully with foreijjn labor, and
without imposinelower rates of duty tnan
wi'l be ample to cover any increased cost
of production which may exist in conse
quence of the higher rate of wages pre
vailing in this country.'
"And the democratic platform of
1SS8 reaffirms the same doctrine.
"No man asserts that this seven
tenlhs cent duty increases the price
of the farmers' twine. Let me read
you what the gentleman from
Nebraska (Mr. Bryanl, who is the
champion of this bill, said on the
subject:
'We atrree there were consumed in this
country hist yearalout one hundred mil
lion pounds ot l)i nil. u ic t.vme. We agree
that if a tariff of seven-tenths of 1 per cent
i added to the price of the binding twine
that it costs the peoo!e of this country
$7K),IX0 because of that tariff. We agree.
ulso, that no binding twine was imported
and that no revenue was received bv the
rovernment from this source. Therefore,
if this was a tax upon the consumer, it
was a tax of $7 ).0uu taken ' u1 of the peo
ple's iocket, not one cent cfv hich reached
the treasury. According '.o trie repub
lican idea that is an ideal tariR ; it em
braces the maximum of burden with the
minimum of revenue.'
"And the house answered this
brilliant syllogism founded upon
an "ii" with the only replj- that it
deserves with "laughter." The
gentleman's logic recalls the old
fallacy of the school books: If no
cat has two tails, and if every cat
has one more tail than no cat. then
every cat has three tails."
Mr. Bryan may depend on it the
republican farmer, the democratic
farmer and the independent farmer
are all able to detect the sham and
fraud surrounding this type of
tariff reform statesmanship. THE
HEKALD was reliably informed yes
terday that some of the alliances of
Cass county were already negoti
ating with the Fremont twine fac
tory for their binding twine for
1892. Yet Mr. Bryan and eery
snide reformer of his ilk would be
only too happy to drive this little
Fremont industry from Nebraska
territory. The day and the hour
for W. Jennings Bryan statesman
ship has passed away in this First
congressioual 'district.
(Juken Victoria has signed the
Beliring Sea treaty, which indicates
that we have a secrelary of state
who is a better diplomatist than

THE democratic New York Sun
says, "The present congress, with
greedy fingers, has been elbow deep
in the people's money." It might
have added and the democratic
party in New York, which the Sun
boosted and aided, is the most cor
rupt and unscrupulous organiza
tion that ever existed in American
politics, and only told the plain
truth.

As di&gree:ibte a dnty probably ae
any that ever falls to the lot oi a re
porter ia tbo getting of facts for tbe
obituary notices of puyons who are not
especially pr-ininwt. Newspaper men
always shrink from the work and are
loath to enter a house of niouraint;.
The exigencies of the prof ewsion dein-ind
it, however, ad strange as it may seem,
sometimes the men actually liave con
ical experiences.
This is bet illustrated by the narra
tion of a recent occurrence ir Xe-w
York. A death notioe had been re
ceived late in the evening, and to the
trained eye of tLt- night city editor b-ro
alUTthe earmarks of a "good obituary
These are indicated by the penmannhi
of the notice, the location of the horn?
of the deceased, the name, the wording
and numerous other minor details, such
as one unfamiliar with newspaper work
would scarcely notice.
The reporter assigned to the task pro
ceeded to the residence given with a feel
ing akji to a desire to exchange place
with the corpse. In response to the ring
of the bell an airish young woman, pre
sumably the widow of an elderly man,
opened the door of the house, which wa
in a good neighborhood. The reporter
introduced himself and the subject a
delicately as possible.
"Oh, I'm delighted to see you," replied
the woman effusively, in answer to th
deprecating words of the man. "I've
always wanted to see a reporter," she
added, looking curiously at the specimen
before her, as though astonished at see
ing a respecfcibly appjaring individual.
Then followed the ordinary question
by which the reporter found out when
and where the man was bom, where he
was educated, the list of chilis and fra
ternal lodges of which he was a mem
ber, whether he had fought in the war.
and a dozen other things.
"It does seem so strange," remarked
the woman. "Here I am telling you all
these things, and he will never read
your article. He would have been so
pleased. You know, he was a literary
man himself."
"Indeed?" said the reporter, brighten
ing up at the prospect or swelling mi
stickful of matter to at least a quarter
column. "I had forgotten to ask the
occupation. Will you kindly furaish
me with a list of his works?
"Oh, he didn't write books!"
"Magazine articles?" queried thw ro-
porter, with wavering hopes.
"No," said the woman.
"Newspaper man perhaps?" ikerl the
reporter sadly, for his imaginary qnar-
ter column had again shrunk to an ac
tual stickfuL
"He did not write at all," remarked
the woman, at last brought to baj.
"What!" said the reporter, his curios
ity at last thoroughly aroused, "not
even for trade papers, advertising liter
ature, theatrical posters, pro&rammes."
"No. His father was an editor.
though," exclaimed the woman, with a
pleased smile, "and he worked for a
publisher. He had the agency for Long
Island of the Cyclopedia of Useful In
formation.' Of course you need say
nothing about that. Just write it dow
that he lived a simple. Christian life and
was engaged in literary pursuits. "

And Yet Be Gave Him Six Month.
A fine, stalwart man, with a frank,
open expression, was arraigned for steal
ing s pair of shoes from a dealer. "Did
you steal the shoes?" asked the judge.
"He caught me, judge, with the shoes
and the box in my hand. Ill tell you
how it was," began the complainant,
but he was cut short and reminded that
the prisoner had pleaded guilty. "How
did you come to steal the shoes? You
look like a hard working man," re
marked the court. "Well, I stole them,
judge, and he caught me," was the re
ply, lie was committed for six months.
The judge remarked later: "I was rather
taken with that man. He came up to
the bar like a Marc Antony, not with
the sleek expression, 'Your honor,' or a
whine of any kind. Had he given me
any good excuse I would have been very
lenient with him, for if I am not very
much mistaken in my judgment he is no
thief, but an unfortunate fellow who
was pinched by poverty." Brooklyn

Carlyle's View of Aprons.
Carlyle in his "Sartor Resartns" was
able to find a deep philosophy in aprons.
"Aprons are Defenses; against injury to
cleanliness, to safety, to modesty, some
times to roguery. From the thin slip of
notched silk (as it were, the emblem and
beatified Ghost of an Apron), which
some highest bred housewife has grace
fully fastened on; to the thick tanned
hide girt around him with thongs,
wherein the builder builds and at even
ing sticks his trowel; or to those jingling
sheet iron aprons, wherein your otner
wise half naked Vulcans hammer and
smelt in their smelt furnace is there
not range enough in the fashion and
uses of this vestment?
