N ouwamm'fikzm ‘Truth above all things.” FRIDAY. OCTOBER 13, 1893. [Entered in the Post-Ohice_as a Newspaper-:3 “ Tinkering With the Tariff.” .. It is justly charged that the appre- hension of a repeal or material modifi- cation of the McKinley tarifl‘ act has - had a good deal to do with bringing about the business uncertainty and de- pression of the past few months. It had much to do with it, but not so much as the politicians would have us believe, perhaps. It is well known that for the greater portion of the last twenty'years the country has been fairly prosperous. Our Democratic friends insist that it was so during Mr. Cleveland’s first ad- ministration. Bepublican friends tell us it was unusually so during Mr. Har- rison’s administration. Times were good under the tariff of 1883, and equally good under that of 1890. Are they bad now entirely, because of the fear that changes may be made in the present law? The times are certainly too bad to admit of revision calculated . to diminish the revenues of the Gov- ernment. -~ Since the close of the war there have been nineteen tariff acts passed, main- ly in the direction of lower duties. These enactments naturally followed the eight acts that were passed between March 2, 1861, and March 3, 1865, for the purpose of augmenting the reve- nues. Yet no serious revulsions in commerce or trade occurred that could be chargeable to our tariff legislation. The country has been gradually adapt- ing itself to changed conditions. It may not be that the proper adaptation has yet been reached. At any rate, it is not reasonable to hold that the general lack of confidence had all its origin in the tariff plank of the Chicago platform of 1892. There would be no lack of confidence at all on this score, could the tariff question be removed from the domain of poli- tics and settled on a non-partisan, busi- ness basis as it ought to be. Whatever mischief its agitation produces is whol- ly owing to the fact that the agitation is conducted on narrow partisan lines. 011 one point of protection there can be no dispute. A bill -ought to be at once introduced into Congress and passed, without partisan division, pro- hibiting the enormous influx of Euro- pean cheap and destitute laborers, while our own American citizens are unable to find self-supporting employment. no. Our Day at the Fair. Wednesday was Connecticut day at the World’s Fair. The day was clear and beautiful, and a large crowd was in attendance. Gov. Morris and a large crowd of prominent citizens of our State took part in the interesting ex- ercises incident to the occasion, several from Norwalk being of the number. Thelittle Nutmeg State had good cause to be proud of her day at the Fair. ThelGovernor and Senator D. M. Read addressed the assembled multitude of the‘sons and daughters of Connecticut at our State Building. Speaking of} the Connecticut Build- ing there, Senator Read said 2, “A commission of 32 members,_16 1a— dies and 16 gentlemen was appomted, and from their number an executive and building committee. A design sub- mitted by Mr. Warren R. IBriggs, of Bridgeport, after the colonial style of architecture,was selected, as best repre- senting sturdy Connecticut. Its inr- nishings are in perfect harmony, such as the Pilgrim Fathers would GHJOY. Our building is not the largest, nor are our furnishings the most elaborate, but they represent Connecticut, and Within is a hearty Connecticut welcome to all her sons and daughters, and those of her sister States. Thousands of her bone and sinew have wandered away from home to develop the resources of the newer States. We bid you all wel- come to “ Our Miniature Home in the West.” ' The building was adorned with- the flag? of the Nation and State, as well as foreign flags, both inside, and out. At noon Gov. Morris, with his staff, sur-. rounded the Colombian liberty bell, which was rung by his Excellency in honor of Connecticut’s admission to the Union in 1776. It is stated that at the close of the Fair Connecticut’s building is to be sold to a Connecticut resident of Chi- cago, who intends to keep it as a mu- seu ' u historical headquarters for our tate. The house is noted as the _ bestwconstructed at the White City, and can easily be removed. Its architect and builders are Connecticut men, and have received several orders in conse- quence of their attractive edifice,among which is the Tiffany Booth'in the Arts building. In the evening Senator Read ad- dressed“ the Chicago Boy’s Club, at which he said : . . “This work was practically begun in organized form at Bridgeport, January 21, 1888. with 177 boys enrolled the first night. Other clubs soon formed, and the work has progressed steadily from that time until to-da . Although the public is not yet awa ened to the great benefit such work is to a commun- ity, we make this showing : Clubs in operation Jan. 31, ’93, 10. Members registered since January, 1888, 14 000. Present active member- ship, 5,033. ' New members received during the past year, 2,150. Boys helped in the prlTOe court, 187. hwfi. .vment found for boys, 380. N muber of Penny Savings banks, 8. ii.--positors in Penny Savings ba/nks, 1,249 Total amount deposited by members of the clubs, $2,131,28.” And so gloriously ended Connecticut’s day at the Fair with a superb reception and banquet.

There are no werds so strong as those spoken by the true minister Of the gos- pel. One knows and feels instinctively that such words come-from the heart, and are prompted only by the earnest purpose of doing good to humanity. We" do not wonder, therefore, at the great influence withthe public of the strong and ringing words Ofupraise which the eminent divine, Ben-C. D. R. Meacham, gives that most wonderful of medicines, Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. ‘ When he was run doWn in health, weak in nerves, prostrated in strength,“ and with his blood badly impaired, “he was restored to sound and vigorous health by this marvellous health renewer. Here are the 'e’x'actfacts‘in his own words: -' “I am glad tosay in regard to Dr. Greene’s great remedy, that when my blood was badly impoverished by an old scrofula humor, and my nervous sys- tem was greatly impaired, Dr. Greene’s medicine gave me wonderful relief. “At the present time my health Is as good as at any time in my life, and my confidence in Dr. Greene’s remedy is constantly increasing. ’ Rev. C. D. R. MEACHAM. Pastor Baptist Church,Town Shend,Vt. ” Doubtless the same heartfelt sympa- thy and great deSire to see the sick made well inspired the Rev. Dr. J. W. Walker,Presiding Elder of the Meth- odist Church, Fort Dodge, 121., to also recommend Doctor Greene’s N ervura bloodand nerve remedy to the sick and suffering.
