Earl Fitzwilliam of England, who
began his 87th year a few days ago,
has sat forty-four years in the house
of lords and received his training as a
parliamentarian in the house of com

ago as a young man of 22. The earl,
who is active in spite of his great age,
has been for some years the oldest of
the Knights of the Garter, which dec
oration he received from Lord Palmer
ston early in the '60s. and he is also ,
in years the oldest knight companion, i
although he has not held that decora

When is a cigarette not a cigarette?
When it is a pipe. The answer to the
conundrum was given by English
magistrates. The taking of a tobacco
pipe into a certain mine was prohib
ited. A partly smoked cigarette was
found in a workman's pocket. The
man was arraigned and fined. The
Judges held that a paper charged with
tobacco was a pipe within the mean
ing of the rule. It was an instance of
applied common sense. Human life
is of more value than literal construc
tion. The petty court was merely il
lustrating a working principle observ
ed in tribunals of a more august or
ganization and a larger jurisdiction.
The American boy is ahead of the
English boy. in the judgment of Sir
Thomas Lipton, because he gets a bet
ter chance to show what is in him. In
America the managers of large con
cerns are often very youthful. In Eng
land the'r youth would be a disqualifi
cation, since there a man must look old
before he is thought to look wise. Sir
Thomas believes that to be "a great
error of policy in the affairs of a na
tion, a business firm or a family.” He
himself came to this country when he
was fifteen years old. He declares his
experience here “the best commercial
training I ever had.” and holds that “it
would be a good thing to send every
English boy to America when he is
seventeen, and to keep him there for
a couple of years.” This is generous
and even flattering to us, but Sir
Thomas' countrymen may find a flaw’
in the argument, reasoning from their
point of view—that after the English
boy had been here two years they
might not be able to get him back.
Arizona is interested and the camp

A QUESTION OF TIME.
TARIFF REVI9ION WILL COME WHEN
NECESSARY.
No rndoe Haste Will He Taken That
Might Injnre American Industries—
Great Care Will Me Taken to Sets That
Our Smaller Capitalists Are Protected.
From American Economist: The
Schenectady Star exhibits astonish
ment at the statement of the American
Economist that the time will come
when it will be necessary to revise the
tariff. It thinks that:
“When sane folks read the admis
sion in the Economist that there ever
will arrive a time when it will not be
sacrilege to tinker the blessed Dingley
bill, they will pinch themselves to see
if they are awake and will surely con
clude that the millenium Is i sight.
‘Every one agrees that the tan.'. • ill
have to be revised in time.’ Wh.it
time? Babcock says, ‘Now is the ap
pointed time; now is the day of sal
vation,’ and invites sinners to repent
ance. The Economist admits that it
must be done in time, but belabors
poor Bab for setting the time prema
turely.”
This shows how difficult it Is for the
average free trade intellect to correct
ly grasp the true principle of protec
tion. It is, in fact, impossible for the
free trader to understand that there
Is a wide gulf between the rash and
reckless ripping up of a tariff in the
interest of free trade and the conserv
ative. level-headed adherence to a tar
iff that has thus far produced a pros
perity unequaled in the world's history
until such time as experience and the
development of events shall show' the
wisdom of changing that tariff. The
Star is right in one thing. It is, in
deed, a question of time. Unlike Mr.
Babcock and his revisionary brethren
who would tear open the tariff sched
ules as a means of attacking real or
imaginary evils which did not grow out
of the tariff, do not flourish because of
the tariff, and would not be remedied
by the removal of the tariff, the Amer
ican Economist says, Go slow, let the
tariff alone; give business a chance;
and when It becomes clear that the
greatest good of the greatest number
will be conserved by revision, then the
work of revision will be undertaken by
the only party to which tariff legisla
tion can be safely intrusted, the party
of patriotism, progress and protection.
But not until then.
WHY THE MILLS RESUMED.
The Washington Times says editori
ally. referring to the Dingley law:
"We may concede that there was
not a general reopening of the mills
until after that measure was passed;
but that was merely because the man
ufacturing interests were desirous of
pointing to the idle mills as an argu
ment in favor of the tariff which they
wanted.”
When so rabid a free trade organ as
the Washington Times is willing to
concede even such a self-evident fact
as that the mills were closed under the
operation of the Wilson law and did
not reopen until the Dingley law was
enacted, there is hope. The only thing
which can account for the free trade
delusion is the failure to recognize in
dustrial facts. The second part of th'’
sentence quoted Is so manifestly ridic
ulous as almost not to call for com
ment. Men are in business for the
purpose of making money. They are
not so blindly loyal to any economic
theory as to let good business oppor
tunities go by for the sake of bolster
ing up their theories. If the mills were
Idle, as they were, it was because it
would not have paid to run them. The
pleasure of being able to point to the
Dingley law as a restorer of prosper
ity would hardly have been sufficient
Lo make up for the lost dollars. When
the free traders are driven to take ref
uge In such absurd statements as this
in order to support the claims of the
policy they advocate, they but make
more evident the weakness of their
position.
BABCOCK MAY NOT PUSH HIS BILL.
Mr. Babcock of Wisconsin, author of
the bill to put Iron and steel products
and some other things on the free list,
which he introduced in the last Con
gress and which he has said he would
introduce in the next house, seems to
be changing his mind. Asked today
as to whether or not he intends to
push the bill at the coining session he
replied:
"I won't develop my plans until 1
confer with my colleagues, but I may
say that this is recognized in th
Northwest as a principle that will gc
on, regardless of whether it is pushed
by me or not. The people of the North
west are with me on this question
and I would not have the least fear ol
stumping my district on this question
alone."
Some of Mr. BabcocK’s discreet
friends have been saying all along that
he would, when he had fuller informa
tion on the subject, abandon his prop
osition to destroy the protective tariff
as that would be the result of the pas
sage of his bill, and they now asser
that he has secured that knowledgi
and will drop the subject.
If senators and representatives fron
the West are any guide to public sen
timent there the Babcock hill has n<
support In the Republican party In the
West. The Senators from Wisconsin

other states ha" e declared that tie

of the Babcock 1 11. Every Republlcai
member of the 'ays and means com

SENATOR HOAR S WISE WORDS.
American manufacture, as its friends
predicted, has outgrown the American
market. Now' the manufacturers of the
country are girding their loins for that
! struggle. I see it is proposed to begin
: operations by making reciprocity trea
ties with leading manufacturing na
tions of the world, especially with our
manufacturing rivals.
Now I do not wish to be understood
as opposing altogether and in all cases
such commercial arrangements, when
made carefully and wisely and in a
constitutional way. I shall pay the
highest respect and deference to the
conclusion wh.ch the president, a great
authority, perhaps the greatest living
authority on that class of questions,
j may deliberately form.
But I am bound to caution the man
ufacturers of the country not to enter
upon this great struggle with all rnan
i kind for an antagonist by placing any
i fetters upon their own limbs.
The possession of your own market
j is what has gained for you the power
i and the opportunities to enter upon
foreign markets. Be careful that you
do not throw' away that vantage
ground. Remember that nearly every
i considerable reciprocity treaty we have
ever made, especially our old reciproc
ity treaty with Canada, has been a
j source of unmarked vexation, and you
were eager to get rid of it as soon as
its term expired. If you make a mis
take in this matter the mistake is ir
reparable. The national faith becomes
pledged.
A FREE-TRADE STAR GAZER.
/V/y / \ /
An astronomer used to walk out
every night to gaze upon the stars. It
happened one night that as he was
wandering in the outskirts of the city,
with his whole thoughts wrapt up in
the skies,he fell into a well. On halloo
ing and calling out, one who heard his
cries ran up to him, and when he had
listened to his story said, “My good
man. while you are trying to pry into
the mysteries of heaven you overlook
the common objects that are under
your feet.”
THE FARMER S HOME MARKET.
If there are any farmers who im
agine that their branch of industry is
not benefited by the tariff on steel, and
in fact by all tariffs that tend to pro
mote the establishment of manufactur
ing industries in this country, let them
reflect what would happen if all the
workmen now engaged in turning out
domestic manufactures wTere removed
from this country and set to work, say
in England. Would not the home mar
ket for foodstuffs and other agricultur
al producers be curtailed by such de
portation? Instead of selling such a
large percentage of farm products to
home consumers, the farmer would be
obliged to sell them abroad, and would
be mulcted for the freight and charges.
The home market is the most profit
able market for the farmer, and any
thing that tends to increase the home
consumption of products is of benefit
to the men on the farms as well as to
the men in the workshops and the
stores.—Minneapolis Tribune.
FREE-TRADE AND SAVINGS.
There is no better way to judge the
future than by the past. From their
experience, the people of this country,
especially the “middle class” and the
workingmen, can readily foresee that
the abolition of protection, which has
enabled them to increase their savings
a billion dollars in the past four years,
and the adoption of free trade, with
the idleness and want which followed
that policy before, would not present
any necessity for postal savings banks.
During free trade in this country the
"middle class” and the workingmen
were more interested in and had more
use for free soup houses than savings
banks, and the same conditions would
obtain if free trade were again inaugu
rated.—Helena (Mont.) Record.

crisis In Moses' life when he came to be
49 years old. In some way there came
Into his heart the desire to help his suf
fering brothers (Acts 7:23). It was a call
1 from God to be their deliverer. He felt

to water their father’s docks. Some of the

work to muk- the Egyptians free two mil

12. Certainly I will be with thee. My
power, my wisdom, my protection, shall
be in and around you. Those that resist
you must overcome God himself. So to
the ancient Persian Academy of Silence
strictly limited to 100 came Zeeb. a most
learned man. But the number was full.
To show this the president tilled a glass
full of water, so that it could not hold
another drop. Rut Zeeb floated a rose
leaf upon it. as a modest token of him
self. They elected him. When he signed
his name to be added to the 1UU, he put a
i cipher before the I'M, Unix tnou. St til tne
i number was 100 only. But the president
changed hix cipher Into o 1, anil made it
read 1100. Ills simple presence multiplied
the 100 ten times. Second Answer. The
! visible assurance of God's presence as an

you know that I can do this great work
in you? Here is a miracle by my own
hand. I will be to yon as the ilame to

a darning glory by my presence, and yet
unharmed as a bush. Another token was
the mountain itself. It bore witness to
the promise, it should bear witness to the
fulfilment, for ye shall serve Ooil upon
this mountain. Third Answer. The ap
pointment of Aaron to be his spokesman,
for like many a great thinker and work
er he was not a natural speaker (1:10-16).
The people had to be prepared, and made
willing to run the great risk. How would
they know that God would do what Moses
said. First Answer. The ever-living Je
hovah. personal, self-existent, eternal, in

was the God who had made the promises
to Abraham. Second Answer. The prom
ises renewed. Third Answer. Visible tok
ens. The miracle of the rod changed into
a serpent. This was continued in the
miracles of the plagues, which were done
not merely to make 1 naraoh willing to
let the people go, but also to make the
people willing to go. This required faith
and courage. Indeed, this was a great
deal to expect. It is hard for even the
most Christian nations of the twentieth
century to do it. This obstacle was re
moved by the series of plagues which we
study in our next lesson.

The American home market (of
dairy products Is the one that should
engrave the attention of American cow
keepers. We have the best market In
the world and a market that is con
tinually Increasing Its demand. Many
of our states and territories do not
make enough butter to 6'ipply their
home demand. In a recent report of
the dairy commissioner of the State
of Washington we find that last year
that state imported from other states
t.400,000 pounds of nutter and 1,413,
500 pounds of cheese. Though there
ire 200 creameries and 100 cheese fac
tories in the state, the supply of dairy
products is that much short. The
copulations in these western states is
increasing at a greut rate, as well as
are the populations in the great cities
of the country. Although some of the
western states that import dairy prod
ucts are really so situated that it
would bo possible to produce the dairy
foods needed, yet the habits of
the people are such that no
great and rapid advance in that di
rection can be looked for. They are
absorbed in other pursuits that they
de«m more profitable. These markets
are susceptible of great development,
and with proper methods of distribu
tion the amounts consumed would be
very much greater than at the pres
ent time.

Wylie, Kapunda, South Australia,
makes a rather remarkable statement
as to the gain arising from the cover
ing of his cows. We have seen cows
covered at night in the stable and
have heard of dairymen that even per
mitted their cows to go into the pas
tures with the blankets on. More
over, it is well known that in some
parts of Europe the dairy farmers
cover their cows in the pastures. But
as a scheme that brings profits we have
not seen it generally recommended. It
looked like carrying the care of cows
to the extreme. But the Australian
In question believes that he reduces
the cost of making butter nearly one
half. In fact, he says that before the
use of blankets the cost of making a
pound of butter was 22 cents and after
the practice had become well estab
lished the cost was only 12 cents per
pound. We doubt if this remarkable
decrease in cost was due to the con
servation of heat, but the Australian
seems to have no doubt on the matter,
n part he says: “It took me two
years to get the whole of my twenty
six cows under cover, because I want
ed to proceed cautiously, and see what
the result would be, and I was so sur
prised that I had to go over the work
again and again to be sure that 1 was
making no mistake. Every cow that
was put into a cover gave the same
satisfactory results, by increasing her
produce on a smaller quantity of food,
and getting into better condition. The
effect of the covers on the cows was j
marvelous. My system of managing
the covers is to keep a record of the
outside temperature, and when the
thermometer goes above 60 degrees I
take the covers oft. When it goes be
low CO degrees I put them on, and al
ways keep them on in wet weather.
The material I use is grainsacks, two
of them sown together, forming the
cover, with a rope round behind, fast
to each corner to keep It from going
forward, and a leather strap fastened
in front, behind their forelegs to keep
; it from going back. I thought at first
that I would have to oil the covers, but
was surprised to find that after a cow
had worn one for about a month, the
grease and hair from her skin made
the sack waterproof underneath, so
that in the heaviest rain we have had
I have never known the cover to wet
through. To see cows feeding in the
rain with covers on when it is blow
ing a gale and taking no notice of it,
is a surprising sight, and gives me
great satisfaction.”
