THE OPENING BOOMERANG. UR GOOD but unretlective friend the World says, with a sigh for the worker, that Mr. Morton's employees, recently gone to other fields, got only thirty-five dollars a month, So? Why! twenty years ago men by the half million voluntarily risked their lives and fortunes for only thirteen dollars a month; and lots of farm laborers—" found” and rent-free, however—are quite glad to get that amount now.

THE JUDGE will have pleasure in presenting the faces of Mrs. Ben Harrison and Mrs. Levi P, Morton next week, AS to strength, purity id beauty, added to dignity and grace of feature, there are not more typical American faces among the many lovely women of this continent whohave won respect as well as admiration. Nobody has ever questioned the beauty or the wholesomeness of Mrs, Cleveland, who will always be one of the JUDGE'S favorites, and whose assumption of the duties of first lady has been so amazingly successful in view of her tenderness of years and experience; but there is nobody who would not involuntarily take off his hat to the good, honest, handsome face of Mrs. Harrison, and shoot it to the upper atmosphere with the first glance at the splendid countenance of Mrs, Morton, It is to be regretted that Mrs. Cleveland—may the Lord bless her always and everywhere !—is not to have a second term; but the white house will be as well graced by Mrs. Harrison, and the society of Washing- ton could have no fairer woman than the wife of the next vice-president. That much for the speeding as well as the coming guests of the nation, though the sky fall and the general judgment arrive before the votes are put in the ballot-boxes. ONE OF THE ADOPTED. THE JUDGE acknowledges with peculiar gratification the reception of a printed address on the tariff question by Mr. Alfred Dolge of Dolgeville, N.Y. Mr. Dolge is. as his name indicates, a German or rather he was a German, for he has been an American citizen for about twenty years. Mr. Dolge invented the sounding-board for pianos which is in use the world over, and his enterprise, added to his ingenuity, has built up a village in Herkimer county, north of Little Falls, which is made up of about 2000 souls—or, to be more correct, of about that num- ber of individuals, The address is thoughtful, clear, simple, prac tical—and therefore protective Mr. Dolge is one of very many who have come here to develop themselves because they have small chance to do so on the other side of the Atlantic. The country needs such men as Mr Dolge, and there is no“ Ameri- canism” which does not include them quite as much as it inad- vertently included them when, coming from Holland, or Prussia, or France, or England, or any other part of Europe, they gave us all the Americanism that we enjoy year of our Lord 1888, I want you to understand DEMOCRACY AND LABOR. SINCERITY of the Democratic claim to lessen the load of the laboring man is well shown in its legislative policy. No family in the country, no matter how limited in resources, but is a consumer of sugar HE 1 Its use is universal. It pleases the palate and replenishes the muscul: waste of sixty million people. Yet ninety-five pounds out of every hur dred pounds is imported. The tariff nearly doubles its price. Reduce the duty, or make sugar free, and it would touch every tooth, stomach and pocket in the land. Sugar is an important item of expense to every laborer, It cannot (any more than salt) be more largely used by a wealthy than a working man. The partial or total abolition of the duty would he! in far greater proportion the poorer than the prosperous man, Prem Mills, however, while weeping over the “ Republican robbery of the poor. mits his philanthropy totears.
