The Mass Meeting on the 31»t

Free Trade.
The most ineonleslible evidence
•>f tile length, breadth, depth, anrl
strength of lire tariff relonn move
ment may Ire seen in the prompt
and wonderful enthusiasm ere
a tell by Grover Cleveland's
message, and the absolute una
nimity with which the Democ
racy of the Union, without doubt
or hesitation, end.weed bis views,
and rceoinmended him to the St.
Louis convention as the choice of
tile people for President of I he
United Stales. Another very sig
iiiiicant evidence is found in the
wide spread dissatisfaction among
republicans with their own plat
form which results in daily defec
tion from that party. Protection
is wrong and false in principle,
and in its operation is nothing
more tor less than legalized roh
bei£. Tlie majority of lire people
of this country are honest, and
they are not willing that such a
monstrous outrage should become
a permanent policy of our govern
ment. What they demand, how
ever, is not “free trade," notwith
standing the labored efforts of the
republicans to make it appear so.
There are a few so called demo
eratie journals in the country
which are also doing everything
in their power to create the same
impression. But these falsehoods
and misrepresentations do not de
ccivc the people to any great ex
tent. The object of these so call
ed democratic journals is exactly
the same as that of the republi
cans, viz: to defeat Mr. Clcicland
and tlie great party he represents
The recent campaign in Georgia
upon this question demonstrated
the utter inipolency and futility
of their gigantic efforts to lead
the people into the support of a
shrewdly devised system of public
robbery. In sp:te of all their
sophistries and highly colored de
ceptions,the people of the counties,
almost without exception,declared,
in no unmeaning terms, for honest
taxation. Tariff reform is as far
from “free trade” as the east is
from lire west, and no one knows
it better than the greedy prolcc
lionist. Ilis arrogance has grown
with his wealth, and to day he is
almost powerful enough to defy
the people, and force them to con
tinue their annual tributes. But
as the campaign progresses, infor
illation will be diffused among tlie
masses, and the democratic ranks
will swell, and democratic enthu
siasm will increase until Novem
her, when a great triumph of tin-
people will guarantee the relief
which they now demand of the
government.

Effects of Aieiilal Overwork.

Some interesting, though not
novel, observations on the symp
toms of menial Fatigue were dis
cussed at a recent meeting of the
Anthropological Society. The re
sult lit" these investigations goes
"o prove that weariness of uiind,
the result of work, like other forms
of exhaustion, is recognizable un
der tlie two different though rcla
ted aspects of irritability and in
capacity. Further careful inqui
ry into the same subject would
probably show that here, ns else
where, the Homer of these condi
lions is introductory to the latter,
and is the natural sequel of that
stage of apparently successful
ovcraclinn w hich is seen when an
organ still fully capable is uuiiuly
stimulated.
The observations referred to
were culled from a series of reports
by school teachers, and included
details ol their own sensations as
well as of the children under their
care. The signs of mental irrita
bility were apparent in sleepless
ness ane nervous laughter; of la
liguc. in sleepiness and incapaci
ly for task work. Lolling, yawn
mg and a languid manner told
that tlie will was flagging. Head
ache suggested overstrain in study
combined with defective ventila
tion, and perhaps a too sparing
diet; while some curious facts
bearing on the causation of color
blindness and somnambulism were
also noted. Thus, in one case the
blue-color peiccplion was for a
time obliterated, and the suffeier
from this defect found herself

Nonsense.
The Evening News, of Alacon,
in its every issue characterizes the
Democracy as a “free trade” party,
ami reiterates daily tlie statement
that the republicans will make a
bold and aggressive campaign,
while the democrats, standing up
on Cleveland's “foolish message,”
will have to receive the terrific
onslaughts of the enemy. The
truth is. as every Democrat
knows, the Democratic party are
tlie aggressors, in favor of the just
and righteous demand for a re
duction of tariff taxation in the
interest of the common people of
this country. The “foolish mes
sage" is tne Democratic platform,
and if the News can't accc|R it
and support it like a man, why
don't it exercise its unquestioned
right to get on the republican
platform, which it evidently pre
fers?
lo which we are liable in the pres
ent age. Do what we may, it is
next to impossible to escape from
it; but there is, at all events, a
certain satisfaction in being able
to recognize its features. We
must not forget, however, that it
is also to a considerable extent a
preventable evil, and it is certain
dangerous surplus. But this year's ! | v a I11:illL . r r „ r satisfaction that
