BENNY'S LAST LETTER.
WHAT HE SAYS IN HIS ANNUAL
ADDRESS TO CONGRESS.
Still Clinging to the Theory That the
Tariff IH the CiiUKe of Pros
perity— Cpholils the Pension System as
It Is—Other Points of His Document.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.
To the Senate and House of Representa
tives:
In submitting my annual message to con
gress I have great satisfaction in being
able to say that the general conditions af
fecting the commercial and industrial in
terests of the United States are in the high
est degree favorable. A comparison of the
rxi.iiiiig conditions with those of the most
favored period in the history of the country
will, I believe, show that so high a degree
of prosperity and so general a diffusion of
the comforts of life were never before en
joyed by our people.
i believe that the protective system,
which has now for something more than
thirty years continuously prevailed in our
legislation, has been a mighty instrument
for the development of our national wealth
and a most powerful agency in protecting
the homes of our workingmen from the in
vasion of want.
It is not my purpose to renew here the
argument in favor of a protective tariff.
The result of the recent election must be
accepted as having introduced a new policy.
We must assume that the present tariff,
constructed upon the lines of protection, is
to he repealed, and that there is to be sub
stituted for it a tariff law constructed sole
ly with reference to revenue; that no duty
is to be higher because the increase will
keep open an American mill or keep up the
wages of an American workman, but that
in every case such a rate of duty is to be
imposed as will bring to the treasury of
the United States the largest returns of
revenue.
The contention Ims not been between
schedules, hut between principles, and it
would he offensive to suggest that the pre
vailing party will not carry into legislation
the principles advocated by it and the
pledges given to the people.
1 recommend that the whole subject of
tariff revision he left to the incoming con
gress. It is matter of regret that this
work must he delayed for at least three
months, for the threat of great tariff
changes introduces so much uncertainty
that an amount not easily estimated of
business inaction and of diminished pro
duction will necessarily result.
It is possible also that this uncertainty
may result in decreased revenues from cus
toms duties, for our merchants will make
cautious orders for foreign goods in view
of the prospect of tariff reductions and the
uncertainty as to when they will take ef
fect. Those who have advocated a pro
tective tariff can well afford to have their
disastrous forecasts of a change of policy
disappointed.
We have had in our history several ex
periences of the contrasted effects of a rev
enue and of a protective tariff, hut this
generation lias not felt them, and the ex
perience of one generation is not highly
instructive to the next. The friends of the
protective system, with undiminished con
fidence in the principles they have advocat
ed, will await the results of the new ex
periment.
A treaty providing for the arbitration
of the dispute between Great Britain and
the United States as to the killing of seals
in the Retiring sou was concluded on the
29th of February last. This treaty was
accompanied by an agreement prohibiting
pelagic sealing pending the arbitration,
and a vigorous effort was made during
this season to drive out all poaching seal
ers from t he Retiring sea.
I recommend that power be given to the
president by proclamation to prohibit the
taking of seals in the North Pacific by
American vessels, in case either as the re
sult of the findings of the tribunal of arbi
tration or otherwise the restraints can be
applied to the vessels of all countries.
During the past year a suggestion was
received through the British minister that
the Canadian government would like to
confer as to the possibility of enlarging,
upon terms of mutual advantage, the com
mercial exchanges of Canada and of the
United States, and a conference was held
at Washington, with Mr. Blaine acting for
this government and the British minister
at this capital and three members of the
Dominion cabinet acting as commissioners !
on the part of Great Britain.
The conference developed the fact that
the Canadian government was only pre
pared to offer to the United States in ex
change for the concessions asked the ad
mission of natural products. The state
ment was frankly made that favored rates
could not be given to the United States as
against the mother country. This admis
sion, which was foreseen, necessarily termi
nated the conference upon this question.
There is no disposition 011 the part of the
people or government of the United btates
to interfere in the smallest degree with the
political relations of Canada. That ques
tion is wholly with her own people. It is
time for us, however, to consider whether,
if the present state of things and trend of
things is to continue, our interchanges
upon lines of land transportation should
not be put upon a different basis, and our
ent ire independence of Canadian canals and
of the St. Lawrence as an outlet to the sea
secured by the construction of an American
canal around the Falls of Niagara, and the
opening of ship communication between
the great lakes and one of our own sea
ports. We should not hesitate to avail
ourselves of our great nutural trade advan-
tages.
We should withdraw the support which
is given to the railroads and steamship lines
of Canada by a traffic that properly be
longs to us, and no longer furnish the
earnings which lighten the otherwise
crushing weight of the enormous public
subsidies that have been given to them.
The subject of the power of the treasury to
deal with this matter without further leg
islation has been under consideration, but
circumstances have postponed a conclusion.
I repeat with great earnestness the recom
mendation which I have made in several
previous liiessages that prompt and ade
quate support lie given to the American

Yeno at Freeland.
The wonder-worker is doing quite a
business in Freeland. He leaves on
Monday morning for Hazleton. He
opened here on Monday night to a
crowded house.
An old man named Mr. Ptrouse, IGG
Second street, Drifton, was publicly
treated by Veno for rheumatism in the
shoulder. The old man was so had that
he could not raise his left arm to his
head and has been unable to work for
seven weeks.
One physician had attended him, hut
failed to give him any relief. After
Veno treated him with his electric fluid
the old man was able to raise his arms
above his head without pain and with
perfect ease. This was done while the
audience waited to see the result.
The old man was interviewed yester- 1
day and seems to be all right now.
There can he no doubt about Veno's :
cures. He possesses about 2000 remark
able testimonials, including a large num
ber of sworn declarations from well
known people in this neighborhood.
Veno is not a faith healer or a mag
netic healer. The cures are performed
by his liniment and medicine, and
everybody can cure themselves by fol
lowing his instructions.
He came to America six months ago
and has had remarkable success. His
medicine is made from the Llaudrindod
water, obtained in South Wales.
His liniment contains the elements of
positive and negative electricity, which
makes it entirely different from any
other liniment in the world. His
remedies are for the cure of nervousness,
dyspepsie, liver complaint, kidney,
female weekness, rheumatism ami
several other complaints, and can he
obtained at the Cottage hotel during this
week.
Want* to Fight Dodd.
In answer to the sweeping challenge
issued by Jack Dodd, of Forest City,
Lackawanna county, but who has been
claiming Freeland as his residence, to
meet and man in Luzerne, Schuylkill or
Carbon counties to decide the welter
weight championship, James Doran of
Wyoming, states in the Nanticoke New*
he will meet him in a contest with the
regulation gloves before the Nanticoke
Athletic Club, the contest 10 come off as
soon as the arrangements can be made.
The club has decided to put up a
purse. This, besides the side bets and
the title of welter-weight champion of
the coal fields, will tend to make it one
of the best contests held in this part of
the state for years. Both are very
clever men. Doran's friends feel as con
fident as can he that their man will best
Dodd in six rounds. However, Dodd is
now champion and his friends are will
ing to hack him
Kxtraordlnary Accident to a Diver.
A diver named Jones, residing in Car
diff, was engaged yesterday in attempt
ing to raise the steamship Accrington,
which was beached at Penarth some
time since after being in collision. She
had several holes in her side, which had
been plugged while the vessel was
pumped out. Jones accidentally pushed
in one of these pings with his right
hand, and the suction of the water be
came so great that his arm was drawn
into the hole to the shoulder, and he
could not withdraw it.
A message was telegraphed to Cardiff
docks for another diver. Nearly two
hours elapsed before 110 reached Penartli
with his diving apparatus, and in this
time Jones had become so exhausted
that he was found hanging by the ves
sel's side on his arm. When rescued,
which took some time, he was so ex
hausted that he had to be lifted 011 board
the steamer. —St. James Gazette.
A New Overcoat for Full I)reHH.
A new overcoat for full dress is vouch
safed by the swell Londoners. It is a
most diplomatic innovation, and seems
to belong to another regime of manners,
when men of fashion met on Fleet street
and courtesied elaborately and strode
magnificently through the minuet. In
these days of skirt dancing and serpen
tine high kicking and ta-ra-ra booin
such a vogue seems untimely.
But it is really a most engaging type
to contemplate, consisting as it does of '
one single cape of black material. It
hangs in military grandeur so far down
as to cover the coat tails. The especial
feature is a very high velvet standing
collar that comes tight together in front,
and is held in place by an oxidized silver
clasp.—Clothier and Furnisher.
Petrilieil Watermelons.
A valuable specimen of petrified vege
tation may be seen in this city. It con
sists of pieces of rock which have the
exact shape and appearance of water
melons. There are two of the speci
mens, the larger one being about sixteen
inches long and eight inches in diameter.
The small one is about nine inches long.
The end of the larger specimen is broken
oif, which appears to plainly show the
rind, the seeds and the red core. There
are also specimens of what appear to be
petrified pine cones. They were brought
to Auburn by Jacob Roll of Rocklin.and
were found between Rocklin and Rose
ville. —Placer (Colo.) Republican.
The World Has Progressed.
One of the earliest telescopic discov
eries by Galileo was that Jupiter is at
tended by four moons; one of the latest,
by Professor Barnard, with the huge
Lick telescope, is that our largest plan
etary neighbor has a fifth satellite. The
first discovery was received with deri
sion by even the philosophers of the Sev
enteenth century. Professor Barnard's
announcement is enthusiastically hailed
by the multitude as one of the greatest
achievements of the age. The world
has moved. —Ohio State Journal.

liery, also operated by the Reading Com-!
nany, took fire on Tuesday and is still 1
burning. About 500 men are thrown j
out of employment.
The lire in the Honey Brook slope j

of the Record they had the following
vote: Young Men's, 220; Pioneer Corps,
207; St. Ann's, 192.
The voting will continue until March, ■
and if the voters of this section wish to 1
I win they should centre their strength on
I one society and it would surely come
out ahead, as the vote of the three here
| is 625, or 110 more than St. John's of
| Scranton, which leads the list.

Perfect Health within the reach of the poor

An original discovery that electricity will
cure disease by causing ozone and oxygen to
be transferred into the system. Safe! Simple!
Absolutely certain! No treatment, no device
has ever before been constructed or used that
compares with it in usefulness for
HOME TREATMENT.
Diseases of horses and other animals are as
quickly cured us those of persons.
Such cures better satisfy the public than
yards of testimonials.
