Do Not Salt your Sidewalks.
It has been observed recently that |
many of our business men use salt to
remove the snow and ice from the
pavements in front of their stores. An
exchange cautions its readers regard
ing the matter as follows: "I)o not j
salt your sidewalks. Snow is prefera
ble to a mixture of salt and snow, the °
temperature of which is fifteen degrees ;
lower than that of the surrounding j
air. The brine slush is a prolific pneu- !
monia breeder and is prohibited in i
cities. Use sand or ashes on the walks
instead of salt."
Responsible For Soup Houses.
Since the starved years of 1894, j
'95 and '96, when Tariff reform j
and soup houses were concomitants, j
the remark that Free-Trade was!
the cause of soup houses lias been
a favorite one with many news
papers and public men. The Louis
ville "Courier-Journal" the other
day tried to wipe away altogether j
the causal relationship posited for j
them, asserting in substance that
the reasoning which joined them !
causally was utterly fallacious, .
being in the nature of propter hoc I
reasoning. We discussed in this'
column a short time ago the rela
tionship between Tariff revision
and soup houses. We repeat what
we held then, that the Wilson act
ol 1X94 was not the cause of soup
houses, but one of the causes. It
might be termed the occasion or
the final cause. It would be
demagogic in the highest sense to
put the entire soup house burden
on the back of Free-Trade.
'1 lie Democratic party during
1892 and 1893 did everything pos
sible to help precipitate a panic.
Gold exports were the order in
1892. The currency was becoming
dangerously inflated by the 850,-
000,000 annually put out under the
silver purchase act of 1890. The
Argentine crisis and the failure of
Baring Bros., the Londan bankers,
in the following year, brought
about a collapse. British capital
was withdrawn from this country
to meet the demands occasioned by
the Baring failure. After thegreat
wheat trade of 1891, which had
temporarily relieved the situation,
reaction set in. The bottom fell
out of the speculative market, and
in sympathy with a fresh move
ment abroad to get rid of American
securities, holders of gold on*this J
side began to hoard the metal. It I
would have been impossible toes-
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 23, 1902.
I cape the consequences of the Bar
i ing j>anic and the silver purchase
act, but it would not have been
' outside of possibility to mitigate
the effects. The Democratic party I
1 had the opportunity of a lifetime.
Yet it proceeded deliberately to
' pile on all the irritants it could de
vise. In the spring of '92 the
; Democrats, who had a plurality of
| 149 in the House of Representa
| tives, passed by large majorities a
series of bills removing import!
I duties on wool and woolen goods, I
cotton bagging and binder twine. ,
I The Senate, being Republican, j
checked these attempts to reduce j
the revenue.
The Democrats were blinded by
the worship of principle, principle !
founded in theory at that. It was !
a line time to talk Free-Trade when
even the high Tariff act of 1890
was beginning to show signs of in
ability to produce a safe revenue.
Cleveland was elected in 1592 on
the Tariff reform issue. No sober
minded disputant will deny that
this election gave to the fears of i
the business community an addi- '
tional filip. (Jreat stress is put on :
I the fact by the Free-Trade advo-i
cates tl\at the panic of IX9.'? began
I a year before the Wilson Tariff bill
was passed. Promises, where the 1
' promisors are able to carry them ;
out, are as effective as acts. The
: Democrats mado a promise to lower j
the Tariff, and after the success of j
the Democratic party in Nov em- ,
her, 1892, the business community j
was as much disturbed as if Free-1
Trade had actually been establish- j
j ed. Moreover, the Democratic j
i platform of 1592 condeuied the '
j silver purchase act of 1890 as <'a j
; cowardly makeshift," thereby inti- i
j mating that Democrats stood for ;
free coinage. Free coinage would
i have been the crowning folly of the j
: Cleveland administration. Better j
: sense prevailed in '93 and the act j
lof 1890 was repealed. Of the 43
j votes cast in the Senate for repeal, ;
! 23 were Republican votes and only '
j2O Democratic. In '94 the Wilson 1
| act was passed. Trade was pros- j
} trated, credit shaken and there was
j a deficit in the Treasury. The need :
| for more revenue was pressing then ;
if it ever was. Secretary of the
[ 1 reasury Carlisle had devised an !
J income lax to make up the estimat- 1
ed deficiency under the Wilson
! act, but the law providing for the |
i tax was declared by the courts to I j
• 7 \
be unconstitutional. Even if the ;
law had gone into effect, there j
would not have been money col- 1
'
lected sufficient to meet the ex- 1
penses of the Government.
The cause of soup houses were j
many, but Free-Trade was among !
them and it stood pretty well up. — I

Children Poisoned.
Many children are poisoned and made
nervous and weak, it not killed outright,
by mothers giving them cough syrups
containing opiates. Foley's Honey and j
Tar, is a safe and certain remedy for
eoughs, croup and lung troubles, and is j
the only prominent cough medicine that
i contains no opinates or otlur poisons. L. !
