Opera Nut Weak.
The Bennetblloulton Opera Company
will present a repertoire of popular
operas at Music Hall next week. The
Danbnry Democrat says: “The Bennett-
Moulton Opera Company, who have
packed the Opera House every evening
this week with first-class audiences, fully
deserve the support they have received.
Not only is the company strong numeri-
cally, but also in talent, and there is so
much of this that it is impossible to sin-
gle out one more than another for special
praise. There are no bright particular
“stars," but all enter into the perform-
ance with a view of pleasing the public,
and they do it. The costuming is far
above the average; the music is well
rendered and all in all, it is a model
troupe. There must bssomething in the
air of Danbnry that has enabled a new
company to obtain such perfection in
lhr‘ short time they have, bad for rehear-
sal." ,

The Other Side of the Quastloa In their
to "cum-h"
Editor of Evmrto Saarinen-Tbs
promised and first overwhelming article
in behalf of free trade hats appeared in
your column "Democracy" last evening.
The when of hatttl‘ra’ for are not higher
in this country than in London and the
outside world. Staple furs of domestic
cuttings are cheaper, with the exception
of a few special lines of French cuttings.
But recently, short furs were worth 50
per cent more in the London market than
they were here. The mixture of for for
the mass of general run of bats possibly
may cost $1.25 to 81.50 per pound. This
would make the tariff on the pound: of
for 25 to 30 cents. The pound of for
will produce ll or 7 hats, consequently
there would be 4 cents added to the cost
of the hat by the 20 per cent. duty. Now
this 4 cents per bat is the great burden
the hat manufacturers, and especially
the bat consumers are groaning under.
Yet with this 20 per cent. duty (and this
country's competition in for cutting,)
batters’ fur-s steadily decrease in price,
being cheaper at. the present time than
ever known in the past—(similar to steel
rails.) Let the few for manufacturers in
this country go out of business, competi-
tion on his side of the water cease in
this line, and the hat manufacturers
know very well the result that would
inevitably follow—higher prices and in-
ferior fur from abroad would be the one
rule. The hat manufacturers exhibited
far better wisdom and much kecucr
judgment in petitioning for the restora-
tion of batters’ fur-s to tho dutiable list,
than “Citizen” does when he presents so
flimsy an argument in behalf of free
trade.
Why not the same argument hold good
in relation to other materials that go into
the hati—dyswoods, shellac, alcohol,
chemicals, silks, satins, bands, bindings,
etc. Why not make the application like-
wise to these articles on the same basis?
There are only a few engaged in the
manufacture of them. Close them up.
They are making a living. Remove the
tariff and take their business from them.
And thus go on closing up until we get
things cheap for the consumer. But,
alas, by the time that goal is reached the
poor consumer (for whose welfare the
Democratic party feels so solicitous,) has
Inst his job, he is out of work, his shop
has been closed, and if bats were import
ed at $0.00 per dozen the poor fellow
would be unable to buy a single size
mark.
We anxiously await the next article
from "Citizen” relative to the hat in-
dustry.
The f or cutters are at once all convert-
ed. no doubt. Yours, H. M.

flattliig In Politics—II.
About the time the amendment to the
Mills bill was obtained putting out for
back under a duty of 20 per cent a peti-
tion was got up to have the duty on
bats raised from 30 per cent. to 50.
There was plenty of politics in this but
no business. The republican managers
got it up, began posing as the batters
friend. Knowing that there was no
free trade in the bill they count-
ed on rsiiing such a cloud of
dust that the batters would not
discover until after election that the
Mills bill at first proposed a large benefit
to batting, and that the only reason
they do not have that benefit is that the
batters themselves petitioned that far
might be let alone.
The democrats faced this petition and
said to the hat manufacturers, you
already have a tariff on bats of 30 per
cent. whichis sufficient to give you a
complete monopoly of ‘ths American
market, you can talk once in four years
about imported hats, but you cannot
show us even one per cent. of imported
hats, whether wholly manufactured or
partly manufactured. You manage to
make money enough in seven months of
the year to live on the whole twelve
months, and while you may not be as
prosperous as you would like tb’li’e, you
are yet so prosperous that paying 20 per
cent. more for your chief raw material
isamattsr of no consequence to you.
You have even petitioned not to be. re-
lieved from that tax. You therefore do
not need, on your own theory, any high-
er tariff on bats.
Furthermore, Ehr‘fB was a duty of
draining the heart’s blood out of the
Western farmers, mortgaging their
farms. koopingthoni in a condition of
quasivslavery on their own homostsads,
compelling them to pay out of the low
free trade receipts for their produce two
‘ prices for their merchandise, reducing
them to hopeless penury and forcing
them to go through life with empty
pockets. This system is protection to
them with a vengeance, and had better
not bosubmittod to their sulferugs for
indorsemsnt next November, as the can-
didate depending upon it to sent him in
the White House we four will be
wofully disappointed in the result on
the count of votes.

One on Fred Wardwell.
Sunday morning Fred Wardwell,
one of the horse car drivers, jumped out
of bad and looked at his watch. In his
haste he thought the time was 7:20. when
in reality it was only 6:20. As 7:20 was
the time for him to leave the depot with
his car he threw his ‘clothss on and hur-
ried to the depot, which he found had
not been opened. He thought every-
body elss was late as will as himself and
threw up the doors, went into the barn,
got his horses and drove quite rapidly
down the street as far as St. Mary's
church, when he happened to look at the
clock and saw it was only 6:30. To say
Fred was mad would be putting it very
mild. He drove his car back to the
stable, but it was too late, he had been
seen and many questions were asked.
Martin Kellogg now thinks that “he who
laughs last laughs best."

Dana‘s Sarcasm. i A
The New York Sun after referring to
forty per cent. on hats up to July I,
1883, when as a result of the republican
tariff commission investigations, a billl
took effect, prepared by republicans and;
high protectionism, which reduced that“,
duty from 40 per cent. to 30 per centJ
What want of candor, what a hollow;
mockery of reason and fairness do our.
opponents show, when they dare to give 5
it out that they are going to stampede
tho batten with the false cry of free;
trade, when they themselves five yearsl
ago reduced the duty on hats one quart- 1
er. while the democratic plan is to leave!
the duty on hats as it is, and give manu-I
facturers just what they have been ask‘,
ing for for years, their chiet raw mate- -,
rial free of duty. You republican poli-l
iictans make a bad fist of it when you;
introduce cheap politics into business!
You think you will fool these men and }
catch their votes by proposing to raisei
the duty on hats to 50 per cent. when}
you have not the slightest intention of 3
carrying it out. Have you told them l
that you yourselves cut it down? Do you
dare to tell them that the Senate bill ,
will put it tip again? Does the Senate
dare to propose to put it up. or do you T
honestly think they will propose to
do so? _
Do you even dare to say that putting 1
cut for on the free list will really injure l
the fur cutters themselves, except to‘
withhold from the proprietors of that
business a bonus that but manufacturers:
have to pay them, and get it out of their,
payroll or their customers. Wo say it i
does not cost the fur factories any more i
for labor in this country than in any '
other, and that rabbit skins can be;
counted and fed to a hay cutter here as.
cheaply as in England, or in any other;
part of the world. '
The batting industry is ten times as,
large as the fur cutting and employs
twenty times as many hands, and use»,
lessly increasing the cost of for in habi
ting, reduces wages, or profits, or both, '
or else raises theprics of bats, and thus
lowers the demand, both for bats and
the labor in thorn.

psal lies to him.”

there is not a word of truth in this.
