VIcK's FLORAL GUIDE.-This annual

the best of paper, Astounding in handsome
illustrations, it certainly may claim to
rank as sample of the highest typograph-
ical art. It's colored plates, three in num-
Der, are perfect gems, and we are at loss
to discover how this enterprising firm can
afford to lavish so much expense in beau
tifying publication for which they only
ask ten cents, whilst to each of their last
seasons customers they actually give it
as Christmas present. As its name in
dicates, it is a 'sGuide" to the proper
treatment and culture of all kinds of flow
ers and vegetables, each description being
accompanied by an illustration of the
particular plant or vegetable referred to.
We should advise all who are interested
in gardening, whether for the pleasure
obtained from raising flowers, or for the
more practical occupation of raising veg
| etables, to send to James Wick, Roches-
ter, N. Y, for copy of this most instruc-

THE LUMBER TARIFF IN THE
SENATE.

The action of the senate Monday
in committee of the whole in putting
lumber on the free list will prove de-
trimental, if not disastrous, to a very
important interest in three states of
New England-Maine, New Hamp-
shire and Vermont. In Maine alone
more than 1000 men are employed
in the lumbers trade, and its annual
products are worth more than So, 000,-
900. The profits of the business are
not so large that the industry can
stand the free competition of Cana
ola, where labor and the greater part
of the materials which enter into the
cost of the production of lumber, in
Guiding ''stumpage, are cheaper
than in our New England numbering
states. The present duty is not high
and the amount of revenue which the
government derives is not large, it
being 81, 187 ,897 during the last ifs
cal year. The tariff commission has
recommended reduction of about
% per cent, and that feature of the
report is inserted in the bill of the
committee on Ways and Means il

AN OCEAN HORROR.

In Hamburg-American line steam
er Cimbria, which sailed from Ham
burg on Thursday afternoon, for
Havre and New York, with $50 pas
sengers and a crew of 10, came into
collision with the British steamer
Sultan in a dense fog, on Friday
morning, twelve miles southwest of
Borkum, an island in the North Sea,
twenty-six miles northwest of Erndin,
belonging to Prussia, and sank in
fifteen minutes, The officers did all
in their power to save lives. With
out moments loss of time life-belts
were distributed among the passen-
gers, and an order was given to low
Ell the boats. This, however, in con-
sequence of the vessels reeling over
on her side, was found to be very
difficult on one side and absolutely
impossible ON the other. AS the
second officer was still engaged in
cutting the spars loose, so that there
should be as much drift wood as pos
sible for the people to cling to, the
inevitable laundering occurred, and
the vessel went down under his feet.
He seized a spar, but as several 9th
er persons CLING to it, was obliged to
| let 90. and he swan to a boat. This
boat was subsequently picked up by
| the Theta. The second officer steer
ed the Theta to CuXhaven. Seven
teen other persons were saved by the
steamer Diament from the Weser

eleven Survivors have been landed
from another vessel. The passen-
gers were mostly emigrants from

fog then set in, which continued and
increased in density. The engines
of the Cimbria were kept at full
speed until 1.30 o'clock, then halt
speed until 2 o'clock, after which
they were kept at slow speed
About ten minutes past two O'Clock
the whistle of another steamer was
heard and the engines of the Cimbris
were stopped instantly. The Sui
tan's green light was, owing to the
fog, not observed until she was only
$50 feet off from the Cimbria. The
latter was struck abaft the bulkhead
on the port side, and she heeled owe
to starboard and speedily sank.

the house. 1t is not probable that
the tariff on lumber makes its cost
materially higher to the consumer than
if it did not exist, while an abandon
ment of the industry in our New Eng
land states would not only seriously
affect the welfare of those who find
employment in its manufacture, but
that of many other interests. For
instance, lumber is the chief resource
of large sections of Maine. During
the period of business depression,
the industry practically died out.
The result was that many persons
employed in it went West, and both
capital and labor employed in the in
dustry realized the worst effects of
business depression. There was no
trade and no business in the lumber
sections. When business revived
there was demand for lumber, la
Dor again received wages and capital
a fair return. The change in a few
months was marvellous. Lumber
once more had value, men engaged
in the business once more had money
to spend, the retail stores, which had
long been empty, were filled with
goods manufactured in other parts of
New England and with the provisions
which come to us from the West.
In short, the whole lumber interest
became, in fact, a body of consumers
because they had the money to pur-
chase the products of our factories
and the farms of the West. This
proposition to put lumber on the free
list opens our market to Canada
will not take the products of our fac
tories until they pay the same duty
that is imposed upon the same goods
from Great Britain. To the rest O.
New England and the country thu
practical result of free trade in lum
Der is to deprive it of a body of pro
ducers who, because they are produc
ers, are a valuable class of consum
ers. Thus, while the lumber interes
would suffer irreparable loss, othe
industries would lose thousands O
consumers. In conclusion, it ma,
be stated that there is no reason t,
fear that the action of the senate will
stand in any tariff bill which congress
will agree upon.-Boston Journal.

SILVER COINAGE.

On the I'd of January the Treasury
held 1925, 006, 727 in silver and SILL
504,56S in gold. One year ago it
held only 500, 161 ,40S in silver and
SIP, 617 ,467 in gold. Nearly the
whole of the silver dollars coined in
the year 1882 lodged in the Treasury,
in spite of especial efforts made by
the department to push them into cir
cnlation. A year ago it held $685.
100000 of these coins for which no
use could be found A.; now it holds S94,-
900, 900, and yet it continues to coin
at the rate of 100000 each month.
Can there be given any good reason
for this course, so long after the
amount that can be used in this coun-
try has been supplied?
1t has sometimes been claimed that
the silver dollars, though out of use
directly, serve useful purpose as a
basis for the issue of certificates.
But this can no longer be reasonably
maintained. Prior to the issue of
gold certificates, there was some ex-
cuse for the feeling that the larger
supply of paper circulation met a
public need. But the amount of sill
yer certificates in use was hardly
greater October l, when the gold GER
tiicates began to come out, than il
had been January 1. Moreover, the
silver certificates are in fact not re.
deemed at all in silver. but only in
gold by the payment of duties at the
custom houses. The real security
for that issue of paper would there
fore be exactly as great for all prac.
teal purposes if no more silver dollar:
should be coined. AS the gold Ger
tificates in circulation can be indef
nitely expanded, in answer to an,
public demand, and the silver certifi
Gates serve no better purpose, Their
is no reason for continuing to issu
them or to coin silver dollars. Blu

ARREST OF A DEFAULTER.

Monday night, shortly before the
11.20 accommodation train from
Newport, Sheriff Sullowey received a
dispatch from Sheriff Bowley of New
port, to arrest one Enos McMaster.
who was on the train, an alleged de-
faulter to the sum of from $4,000 to
10000. Accompanying the instruc-
tons was partial description of the
man and information to the effect
that he had bought ticket to New
York and was on his way to San
Francisco. When the train arrived
the sheriff found his man occupying
the rear car, being the sole occupant.
He called McMaster by name and
told him that he would have to get
off the train and come with him. To
this McMaster demurred, and de-
manded to see the papers upon which
he was apprehended. The sheriff
quietly informed him that he would
see the papers in due time, and TAX
ing him by the coat-collar led him
out. the conductor shouted "All
aboard! p and the train passed out of
sight, leaving the discomftted pris-
oner standing on the platform. The
man gave vague and unsatisfactory
answers to all inquiries. Officer Bow
ley and H. Cleghorn of Montreal
came down on the express train
which, being two hours late, did no
arrive here until about three o'clock
but in season for them to take th,
express train for Newport with thei
prisoner.

THE BASIS OF THE NATIONAL
CONVENTION.

The National Republican Commit
tee has decided to retain the old basis
of representations, and that the dele
gates shall be elected not less than |
thirty nor more than sixty days be-
fore the meeting of the Convention,
and that the district delegates may
be chosen either at local district con-
ventions or by the district delegates
in State Convention. This decision
changes the present situation only by
preventing such performances as
those of the New York and Pennsyl-
vania conventions of 18S0-which
were held about four months before
the assembling of the National Con-
vention-and by the option of local
district convention.
The basis of representation is left
as before, and exposes the nomina-
ton to the chance of decision by the
''rotten boroughs." Mr.. LOGAN as
serted strenuously that there was a
principle in basing the representation
upon population, but no principle in
basing it upon the vote. On the
contrary, the only principle in the
matter is with the latter proposition.
The object of selecting delegates is
to ascertain the preference of the
party. To that end the delegate
constituencies must be reasonably
equalized. But to give thousand
Republican voters in one place the
same representation with five thou
sand in another is not only to choose
a false basis, but it is to subject the
the nomination to the chance of being
decided against the wish of the ma
jority of Republican voters. If
therefore, it be considered wise to
give every Congressional district IL
the country representation, nothing
is palmer than that the increase OF
representation should be determined
by Republican voters. and not b,
mere population.
But another result could hardl,
have been expected from committe
in which Territories and non-Repub
lican States were largely represented
The district gain is that the absurdit
of the unit rule is abolished. Tn
Republican sentiment of every dis
trict will be heard and respected
This would have been still more as
sured by requiring the delegate elect
ton to be held in the districts. BIZ
the old tyranny yielded as little 9
possible Meanwhile it is well
remember that Republican success
depends, not upon the manner
which delegates are elected. impo
tant as that question is, but upc

party. 1t is Congress, and not Il

and the mail, express, and baggage
cars, were dashed against high bank
and then thrown back, rolling down
an embankment. The lamps and

it, thereby saving the lives of some
forty occupants of that and the smok-

capped with their lives lay bruised and
bleeding in the darkness, shivering il

persons were killed, and the bodies
of eleven were burned beyond recog

to the culpable carelessness of those
in charge of the train, and fixes the
responsibility with peculiar force upol
