Keene, the great grain gambler, went
under one day last week, to the tune of
about 4 millions, while indulging in
speculations in New York. No one feels
anyways sorry about it, and it is the fate
that we would gladly see overtake all
those who gamble in the staff of life and
are the causes of panics to the ruin of in-
nocent parties. When Keene recently
came to New York in a palace car, Jay
Gould remarked they would send him
away in a freight car. The Wall street
blacklegs got away with him.

The delegates to the Republican na-
tional convention are about all chosen,
and the count ns near as can be known

will be nominated-—each one goes in
strong enough to prevent the other from

corned. If he had earned a

With that dollar he went to ]
what he wanied from a Frenchman, bul
the Government stepped in with ils pow.
or and said : “You must not buy from a
Frenchmao, you must buoy from an
American.” He went with his dollar to
the American, who said: “I charge $2
for that article.” He must go back to
his toi! and another day must go out of
his life to get the additional dollar, What
was the significance of that transaction 7
He had been, by the power of law, com-
pelled to work one day againet his will
for an American manufacturer, In oth-
er words, for one day he had become a
slave. Every dollar of increases in the
price of all goods which the protective
tariff occasioned was an hour or a day of
slavery, He rested his whole case on
the proposition that, subject to the needs
of Gevernment, every man had the right
to sell where he could get the best price
for what he had produced and buy where
he could buy the most cheaply. This
was the approved doctrine of political
economy and the plainest teachings of
justice. i :
The present American tariff wasa high
protective one. It increased the price of
articles imported into this country more
than 43 per cent, It was perfectly man-
ifest that its influence on our foreign
commerce conld only be deleterious,
Nothing was clearer to his mind than
that the destruction of the foreign carry-
ing trade waa the result of the prohibi~
tion of an American registry to foreign
built vessels and the high price of raw
material to ship-builders, The oceans
were free to all ; and a person might sail
withersoever he pleased; but in this free-
for-all whore was America? The skill of
every sailor of every nation was there
asserting itself, except ours; fortunes
were being built up for people of all na-
tions except ours, and yet this was an
ocean-bound republic. Every ripple of
the waters on the seashore was an invi-
tation to enjoy the wealth of foreign nas
