(ikorok W. Atkinson has finally collared an opportunity to un bosom himself upon the tariff in the toii.it Ifccoivl. It was impossi ble for him to do it during a daylight session when all the members wen* present, so he accomplished the feat during a night session—an institution al lowing members who cannot otherwise deliver speeches t«« the House to inflict them on each other, or simply have them priuted in the Hti-ont. Mr. Atkinson, taking advantage of this, lias worked his 1**** campaign speech into an eulogy of the McKinley hill, and the faithful Intilli'irnnr repro duces it. After au introduction, the West Vir ginia statesman proclaims himself a •protectionist from principle.” and dives hcadloug Into the bill. He goes -mack against a snag in the first sen tence. If he had his way he “would restore the wool tariff of 1***V7." Here he runs foul of Mr. ISueink aud his own home organ which endorsed III..vine's policy of trade reciprocity or free trade with South and Central America, whence comes the bulk of our uu|>ortcd wool. Nothing daunted, how ever. the able statesman caroms off and butts Mr. McKinley hard in the region of his wind by declaring that he “would place a duty high enough on sugar to encourage the grow th of cam* and beets out of which to produce every pound of sugar that could be possibly consumed by the American people.” The Hon. Hkokue W. declares that the tariff isn’t a tax and valiantly defies any IVmocrat to dispute it. Mr. McKinley, in his report, declares that the tariff is a tax on every American who uses sugar, which should In* taken off and a direct bounty on home-made sugar of two cents a pound substituted, to lie paid to the sugar trust, and tin* American people allowed cheaper sugar. Wc leave the bold West Virginian and Mr. McKinley to fight it out on the question whether the tariff is a tax or not, and juiss on the next proposition of Mr. Atkinson. After ineorjairatlng three-quarters of a column—in the fit tellbl'-m'er's type—of his Ns speech, go ing hack to 17s*.i. to show that this coun try ha> always been prosperous under a high tariff, and poverty-stricken un der a low tariff, which lias been so often shown to In* not only false, but tin* very reverse of true, that the subject has grown to be a wearisome chestnut, the Hon. liEom.E W. makes this . rushing statement: I hold in mv hand a price list takcu from the ledger of'Hewitt, Kuffucr A Co., a mer cantile tinu in the llreat Kanawha Valley of my State, as far buck as l SC. a time when we were living under revenue tariff. Prices iu that old ledger were given upon forty - one different articles, which were needed then as now in every home. Then Mr. A. proceeds to quote the prices, which, of course, were far above those of to-day. We wouldn't accuse so nice a man a> Mr. Atkinson of know ingly and pro meditated I y acting the demagogue, so that we can only assume that he is ignorant of the world's com mercial evolution since is.'tT. Then our manufacturers had nothing like the facilities they have to day. * either for manufacturing or transjiorting their goods when manu factured. The tariff did not cause the astonishing improvements that have boon mad* in machinery since 1*37. Science and inventive genius did that. The tariff did not cause the old road wagon of 1*37 to be supplanted by the fast freight train of to-day. The inven tor of the locomotive did that. To charge the reduction in the price of I manufactures since 1*37 to the tariff is to say that our vastly Improved ma chinery. which enables one man with its aid. now to do what 100 men could not do tiftv years ago. and our equally vast-, lv improved, cheapened and increased transportation facilities all go for naught. Mr. Atkinson doesn't believe that. or. at least, he wouldn't if he would stop ami think for one brief moment. This is the chief argument of the blind worshippers at the high tariff shrine, and the average sehool-bov of ten year of age who looks into the matter cau see that it has not even the shadow of foun dation. To •‘how more fully and com pletely the falsity and absurdity of the thiug we Mini only point out the fact that our present system of tariff tax ation was not begun till 1*,;1 and then not for protection but to raise money to carry ou the war. The Hon. Mr. A. sticks to it. how over, that it is all owing W> the tariff ■ and after dilating upon that absurd notion he flies off at a tangent and cites an instance to show that the tariff is not a tax paid by the American consamer. He says: Onlv a week or so ago tw* schooners sailed into New York harbor They were loaded with fresh mackerel One of these U hlMawri was a Canadian veanel—the other an A men. an Bcfnte the Canadian isvuld unload hi« .VM barrels of mackerel be was re^uiml to pay a duty of fci on each barrel for the privileged competing withourown fl»h**nnen in the New York markets. The American. of course, was not required to pay anv duty Now. if the consumer pays the tariff duty the Canadian must receive for hi* mackerel *i more per barrel than the American Is this corrts-t or falsef The fact i*. the t uaad.an received slo a barrel for his mackerel, which is precisely the amount the A men.-an ns-eired for his the prtie be-.ng fixed by the American market N.*w. then, did the Canadian take away with him Its a barrel <*r h* a barrel. f«*r hi» product • Kverr man who has as much seusc as a peewee knows that he would take only m a hamd with him. be cause tw*. and not the consumer. had to par the tariff duty of K a barrel, t- r the privi lege of the American market. We confess to not being ou very iu I tun an- U-rtu- with tin* “pnwm*.” tmt if tIh- "peewee-* 1. a - ito more sense than n> !»• taken in by such an illustration, we ha\< no desire to form a closer in timacy with it for |»nr|»nsc> of intel lectual improvement. Will Mr. Atkinson pleas*- step upou the atand and again inform us how much the «'anadian*' barrel of maekeral costs before the custom* bou«e ofliccrs levy on it? Eight dollars. Verv good. How much docs it cost after passing the custom house? Ten dollars. Very good. If it were not for the duty it would cost but ss, would it not, Mr. Atkin son? Yes, but then, the American lislier erman couldn’t compete That’s all very well and possibly true, Mr. Atkinson, but we arc naw speaking of who pays the tariff tax, the Canadian fisherman or the American consumer, if it were not for the tax the American consumer could buy his mackeral for >■> barrel ! from the Canadian. With the tax lie must pay *10. So. Mr. Atkinson, does i not the American consumer pay that *? tax. and not tin* Canadian fishermen who simply adds it on to the price of ids barn-1 of mackeral? You bail better step down Mr. A„ , and consult your "peewee" again oil , this point. Tln-re i> a great deal to Mr. Atkin son-' speech, which we have not space this morning to consider. H<- does up the tariff in all colors, from the brilliant and startling Vermillion to the sublimely sad and sombre drab, winding up with a quotation of standard poetry beginning: Sail ou. thou glorious ship of State; popularized by M< (Ji'kfy’s reader. Hut perhaps the most poo tic and soiil stirring portion is that which the Inhl l*lin<*i * telegraph editor sub-heads "A Picture of Wheeling’* Industries," which begins; Mr. Speaker, not long ago I stood upou the summit of Wheeling Hill. It was 10 o'clock at night. The s.t-ne before me was indescribably grand. To my right, across the maguificent Ohio, as she swept by in her ever-wandering way to the sea. Hashed the flames from factories and forges as they kissed the skies Down through the thriv ing citv of Wheeling the Nail City of the West I could hear tin- rattling roll of ma chinery, and could see the bright Humes belching from the tops of tali chimneys, which have given that citv a first rank among the manufacturing' cities of the con tinent. it might he pertinent to ask what on earth tie- honorable gentleman was do ing on the top of W heeling Hill at Hi o'clock at night, but we shall not in quin- into that; if any middle-aged gen tleman wants to risk catching his death of cold by roaming about the top of Wheeling Hill at l<» o’clock at night, j that is his business. The scene from there is certainly “indescribably grand,” especially tin- inde-, scribable part. which could better be described, perhaps, iu day light when it could be seen. We have j only one uitkiai to make upon Mr. Atkinson's (tooth-ally stirring descrip tion. That about the maguificent Ohio sweeping iu her ever-wandering course to the sea is all right, and so is that j about the Hashing flames from fac- , lories and forges kissing the skies; but what sort of ear-trumpet ; did this honorable night wan derer us.- to “hear the rattling roll of machinery” at 10 o'clock at night from the top of Wheeling hill? I rue. the crematory may have been iu opera tion at that time, but that is one of our noil-protected industries, and this Con gress would not be interested in the question whether its machinery rattled and rolled, or not. The next time Mr. Atkinson makes a night Journey to the top of Wheeling Hill he should take a dark-lantern and a policeman along and beware of watch dogs. A night-glass might bo servicea ble. too. Hut we would advise Mr. A. to make his next trip iu the day time. SCIEXCK OK HALL! CINATIONS. Almost every person has had some time during his career, to a greater or less extent, mental deviations, common ly known as hallucinations, lltesc in dividual manifestations are frequently recited with fervor by the favored ones, but like ordinary dreams, “lictitious and full of contradiction," seldom have much weight with Others not in sym pathy with the cause, unless there are certain coincident features or contem poraneous dates to substantiate the story.

With a view to analyzing j this Interesting psychological problem, j the following letter from a well known educator, which ha* been sent over the world, will he read with interest by our reader*: To 'h* Editor of the fUguttr: l>r*n Sir:—May I ask for the publicity | '•t vour page* to aid me in procuring co oix-ration in a scientific investigation for which I am rotqxinsibie' I refer to the i , ■ HathK tnothau, which was begun v,-ur* ago by the “Society for Psy . •. cwl Ke*earoh," and of which the lnter nati,.nai Congress of Experimental Psy chology at Paris, last summer, assunnsl th<- future responsibility, naming a commit- | t,,. ,n . a, h oountrr to carry on the work.

Until the average frequency of j hallucinations in the community is known, it can never be decided whether the so- i called -veridical" hallucinations (visions or other “warnings" of the death, etc., of iRMple at a distance* which are so froqucxit ly reported. are accidental coincidences or j something more. . Some t\i*JO or more persons in England, I Prance and the United States have already returned answers to the question which | heads the jiension slieets, ami which runs j as follows: ••/birr you ever, when completely awake, hint .t rit id impression of beiny touched I'll a liriny loiny or inanimate object, or of heariny a voire: uliivlt impression, so jar as yon could discover, was not due to any external physical eaufit" The “Congress” hopes that at its next meeting, in England, in 1'irJ. as many as aO.OOU answers may have been collected.
