Retaliation Tliroatenctl.
While our diplomats have been working
to eflUt a treaty with Spain, which is so
favorable to that country as to make it
unpopular in this, they have neelected to
take any steps to insure to the agricul
turists of America the continuance of the
most valuable markets for our breadstuffs
and provisions.
The history ot the prohibition of the im
portation of American pork into
Germany and France is still fresh in
the minds of our people. England has
laid restrictions on the importation of
American beef cattle, and the Indications
are that both France and England will
soon inaugurate a retaliatory protective
policy that will practically rule American
breadstuffs out of the markets of those
countries. The narrow-minded policy of
the protectionists, which has placed pro
hibitory import duties on English and
French manufactures ir. order to benefit a
small favored class at the expense of fifty
millions of our own people, is about to
produce its legitimate results, and mate
rially irjure, if not almost destroy, the
great agricultural interests on which the
prosperity of the country really depend.
When the principal markets for American
produce are cut off from us what will
become of the boasted home market for
American manufactures? This is a ques
tion that may well command the atten
tion of the manufacturers, as weli as the
agriculturists, of the United States.
It is a well known fact that within the
last few years France has been anxious to
make a commercial treaty with our gov
ernment, and no doubt had the councils of
the nation not been in the hands of the
robber tariff men treaties could have been
made not only with France but with the
other European powers, which would
have secured our agriculturists a fa
vorable market for a generation to
come. The trade of Cuba and
South America is small compared with
that of the European markets. It is not
I | possible that England may one day
tpt an antagonistic policy even in re-
C-d to th Aaportation of American cot-
B in of her own cotton pro-
King dependencies. No doubt she will
Rpt such a policy as soon as her cotton
Foaucing interests equal her cotton
manufacturing interests. Give our agri
culturists some chance.
Blaine’s Irish Vote.
What percentage of the Irish vote went
to Blaine in the last election is a question
that will never be accurately answered.
It is pretty certain now that it was very
much overestimated by both Republicans
and Democrats at the time, and while
there were a few notable defections of
Irishmen from the Democratic party, the
great body of Irish voters stood solid for
the party that they have always support
ed and wt : ch has always stood up for
them.
Mr* Delia T. 8. l’arnell, mother ol the
great Irish Parliamentary leader, has
letter to the New York World , in
which she vindicates Irishmen, especially
the National Land League, from the
charge of desertion. Mrs. Parnell is a
woman of great information, particularly
about Ireland and Irish attairs, aud her
estimate is that Blaine did not receive
more than 2 per cent, of the Irish vote.
When the immense and unscrupulous
efforts made by the Republicans to cap
ture a portion of the Irish vote are re
membered, resulting as they did in the
converting of ’Egan and Sullivan and a
few others prominent in the councils of
the League, the Democrats of the country
can appreciate the expression of Mrs. Par
nell when she says: “1 was deeply af
fected by the sense, character and devo
tion of our foreign-born citizens as shown
by their faithfulness to their first love.
Such traits should be venerated.”
The effect of President Egan’s attitude
in the late campaign on the League has
been often commented on. Mrs. Parnell
sustains the view that it did not meet
with the sympathy of any considerable
number of Irish-Americans, and that it
greatly injured the organization. She
says;
So far from the Irish National League
not being almost, if not entirely Demo
cratic, its apparent apathy is not due to
want of faith or sympathy for the Irish
movement, but to a loss ot harmony with
the Executive, who have done nothing
since the Boston Convention. Mr. Egan’s
letter so soon after appeared to iudicate
a desire to induce the Leaguers to adopt
hi 9 views, but they felt themselves better
qualified to form an intelligent opinion on
the politics of this country and in no case
would accept any sort of dictatorship.
“The Irish-Americans have not steered
through hidden rock® and shoals. They
plainly discovered their way. They haye
had to’pass by Scylla andCharybdis.for the
appeals to their love for the old country
were a ll nut overpowering, but tempta
tions have proved them to be among the
best and truest of our voters, of whom a
free government has made statesmen.”
There is no doubt that all the Irishmen
who could possible be induced to leave
the Democratic party did so, and itiscer
tainly a matter ot congratulation that so
few deserted, and that the great body of
Irish Americans stands solidly for De
mocracy. As Irishmen have been tried
and found faithful they can be implicitly
trusted.
The Negro vs. the Chinaman.
The emigration of several hundred
negroes from the Southern States to Cali
fornia was noted some two or three weeks
ago, and it seems that the Chinese farm
laborers in the southern part of the State
will be supplanted by negroes as rapidly
as possible. Since it has been ascertained
that cotton can be profitably raised there,
negro laborers, who are familiar with the
cultivation and harvesting of the staple,
are in great demand, and several thousand
of them will, no doubt, be induced to go
there before spring.
The most successful experiments in
cotton growing have been in Kern county,
and several very large plantations will be
devoted to its culture next year. In a
very few years there will be, doubtless,
enough cotton raised in Southern Cali
fornia to add considerably to the total
number of bales produced in the United
States.
The Californians appear to be delighted
at the prospect of having negroes to take
the places of the Chinamen. The China
men live on nothing almost, wear nothing
to speak of, and hence buy
nothing of consequence from their
employers or the merchants. They
save nearly all their Wiges,
and when they have accumulated a few
hundred dollars, go back to the Celestial
Kingdom and live in ease the balance of
their lives. With the negroes it is differ
ent. They will do more and better work,
it is alleged, than the Chinamen, and
while they get better wages, they will
spend all the money they receive. Their
trade, ol course, will be quite valuable to
their employers and the merchants near
where they locate.
The Republicans of California are espe
cially glad to have an influx of negro
voters. The Chinamen have been as un
profitable to the politicians as to the shop
keepers, unless the politfcal capital made
out of their presence is taken into the ac
count. There are some rough characters
in California, however, and if the negroes
should get some of the rugged Westerners
and the Chinamen arrayed against them
they will have reason to wish themselves
back in the safe and solid South. It is to
be hoped, however, that they will prosper.
Infection ami Cremation.
Cremation appears to be slowly gain
ing advocates throughout the country.
Those who favor the incineration of the
bodies of persons who die of infectious
and contagious diseases are becoming
quite numerous. It is as yet a practically
unanswered question how long disease
germs may be preserved in dead bodies.
There are said to be on record instances
of infection from the bodies of victims of
small-pox anil other disease^ja^^ave
the health authorities of
’ Mi
year- >- • I‘i:-- a;q-iivati“ti
to the Secretary of the State bIH'
Health, and the reply of Dr. C.
say, of New Haven, the Actiig Secretary,
is of a nature that creates surprise
among non-professional people. He ad
vised the granting of the request only on
condition that every precaution should
be taken to prevent the spreading of the
disease. The method prescribed for con
ducting the exhumation, removal and
reinterment was as follows: “To have
the labor performed by someone who had
recovered Irons the disease, or had been
recently vaccinated, then to excavate
down to the coffin, and place a pan filled
with live coals of fire upon the coffin,
and pour thereon not les9 than a
pound of sulphur (broken roll
brimstone), atterwards immediately
cover the open grave closely and allow
it to remain over night before removal
of the remains. Whatever was found for
removal should be wrapped in sheets
saturated with a 50 per cent, solution of
chloride of zinc, then placed in a tight
coffin; the coffin should be then packed in
sawdust in a large box, the sawdust being
saturated with the same solution. It
should not be unpacked, but cairied with
reasonable speed and immediately buried
at the place desired without any gather
ing of people or funeral ceremonies.
Other disinfectants besides, or instead of
the chloride of zinc, may be used if pre
ferred.”
There are indications that there will be
considerable discussion of the question of
the persistence of infectious disease
germs, and no doubt the cremationists
will use Dr. Lindsay’s letter to back up
their arguments in support of their
hobby. As crematories continue to
increase in number the question will soon
be brought home to the inhabitants of the
larger cities in this country, as it
already has been presented in Bra
zil and portions of Europe. Compulsory
cremation (without regard to the w ishes
of relatives and friends') of the bodies of
those who die of infectious and conta
gious diseases, is now advocated by many
influential physicians. This is not likely
to become popular with the masses, at
least not in the near future, and attempts
to enforce it during this generation will
provoke, probably, powerful if not
violent opposition. It is proper,
therefore, that those charged
burial of the bodies of persons who die of
such diseases should not only be instruct
ed and required to exercise great caution,
but removals of such bodies should rarely
be permitted. This subject is especially
important to the people of communities
where there are no officers whose duty it
is to look after burials and disinterments.

Lon in rilie Courier-Journal [Dent.).
Come, let us reason together, farmers of
America. You are the deluded victims of llie
protective tariff. England wants your wheat,
corn and cotton, and is willing to give fair
prices in exchange, but our government in
sists on protecting vou against the debilitating
effects of England's generosity. If free ex
change were permitted you would live in de
moralizing luxury; you would have clothes
too good for vou, and better implements than
you ueed and warmer houses, and under these
influences might grow indolent and lose your
sturdy virtue aud vigor. So the tariff “pro

prosperity.

The speech from the throne with which
Emperor William recently opened the Reich

A minor incident of Kossuth’s visit to this
country in 1851 illustrates the way in which
fashions in dress are sometimes originated.
The eloquent Hungarian wore a soft felt hat,

being reproduced in the shops under the
name of the Kossuth hat. Until that time
felt hats were almost unknown in this couu

po’inted out, they were worn only by a few
political agitators.

HEMORRHOIDS.
Blind, Bleeding and Itching Positive
ly Cored by Cotieura.
A warm bath with Ccticcra Soap and a
single application of CrTiCCBA will instauily
allay the intens- itching of the most aggrava
ted case of Itching Piles. This treatment,
combined with small doses of Cuticura Re
solvent three times per dav. to regulate and
strengthen the bowels, overcome constipation
and remove the cause, will cure B ind, Bleed
ing and Itching Piles when all other remedies
and even physicians fail.
ITCHING PILES.
The Price of Cuticnra No Account.
I was taken, for the first time in my life,
with Blind Piles, so severe that 1 could hardly
keep on my’ feet. I used various remedies for
three weeks, when the disease took the form
of Itrhing Piles, and growing worse. By ad
vice of an old gentleman i tried the Ccti-
CURA. One application relieved the itching.
and I was soon cured. I wish to tell the world
that in c. sci of Itching Pi es the price of the
CUTICUKA is of no account. From an uno
licited quarter. O. C. KIBBY.

PILES 20 YEARS.

and hope permanently so.

prominent a feature in this Department—a feature remarked by ajl who have examined our

it is most noticeable in our Finest Grade of Goods, and can be re idily understood when wt*
