A Lower DeDth.

Milton, in Paradise Lost, describing
some of the devils, spoke of them as
having reached the lowest depth. and
then going to a lower depth. We
thought Gould had touched bottom
some time ago, but in the following,
which we clip from one of his edito-
rials Of last week, he has reached a
still lower depth. He says:
Now, two or three days before the
flight of Keenan,, Judge Longbon,
whose personal integrity is beyond
question, made an inspection of the
Treasury; the money was there; two
or three hours afterwards it was not
there. Keenan, in some way learned
of, and prepared for the inspection
Thus the safeguards thrown about the
peoples money are destroyed, and the
law either evaded or defeated. This
covering up Was done once,it may have
been done many times.
The idea attempted to be conveyed
by the above is, that either Judge
Miller or Judge Longbon, or both,
gave Keenan, notice of the intended
inspection.
Now the fact is, every word of the
above is lie. Judge Longbon made
no inspection Of the Treasury until
after keenan, had fed. That report
was published in the Herald, as we'll
as in the Journal and Standard, and
Gould knew that he was lying delib-
erately, Intentionally and maliciously.
Again. He was paid $40 for pub
fishing Armstrong; Report last week.
That report showed that the county
fund had been over drawn $16.24.
Gould had it S1624.00 in three places.

1t could not have been mistake. 1t
was deliberate fraud
Again. He sad last week:
"NOW DON'T YOU FORGET IT,
Under Boss rule, with increased val
uation and increased taxation, the
thirty thousand dollars have van
ished, the Treasury is empty, and
the county several
THOUSAND DOLLARS IN DEBIT!
The following is an extract from
the report Of Inspector Armstrong,
published in the same number of the
Herald in which the above lie appears
''In compliance with the law requir-
ing certificates of such examination,
hereby certify that fourteen thous-
and, two hundred and eighty-four and
43-100 Dollars was the exact amount
of money so found and counted in the
County Treasury"

Of money as he did then. Then a

And for two years past, although
the currency remains largely inflated,
the average rate of wages in manufac-
lures, mechanics, and mining, through
out the country, has been decidedly
lower than in 1860, although the rate
of so-called protection is now rarely
less than twice, and often thrice, the
amount afforded by the tariff of 1860.
There has been larger proportion of
years of distress, short work, and low
pay, during the existence Of the pres
ent tariff, than there ever was under
the low tariffs of 1916 and 1851"
The statements in the above ex-
tracts are equally as false as the first,
as every man who is of sufficient age
to remember, can testify. Take the
books of any furnace, or other busi-
ness where laborers have been en-
ployed. and they will show that the
wages os labor have been more than
doubled within the past thirty years.

Again, Mr.. Shearman says:

THE average advance in wages has
always been far greater under low
tariffs than under high ones; while
to-day, after twenty-three years of
high protection, wages in the protect
ed industries are much lower, on the
average, than they were under the
non-protective tariff of 1860.

Free Trade.

The North American Review for
September, contains articles in favor
of free trade, written by four different
persons. We never saw so many false
statements in the same amount of
matter. One Thomas g. Shearman
is among these writers. Is this the
lawyer who figured so prominently in
the Beecher-Tilton trial? If so, he
probably learned to lie by hearing so
many lies sworn to by independents"
in that Infamous case.
Mr.. Shearman says:
To-day multitudes of protected
American miners and mechanics are
working for fifty to- eighty cents a
day, without steady employment even
at those rates"
We publish in another place the
wages Of coal miners in some Of the
counties in this coal region. In Ath-
ems County, instead of so to so cents
per day, the average daily earnings of
coal miners is ................S2 80

THE LATEST IN WRAPS.
Fur 10 be Fashionable and Black
the Prevailing Color.

II Is gratifying TO DO able TO report that all
furs Will DO fashionable, and many OF tho
cheaper furs are among the most beautiful
The sales in wraps Of all sorts are enormous.
Those that are not entirely fur are almost In.
varlably black In material and trimming; but
even these often betray the general tendency
In their Innings OF wool surah or glace silk or
the brightest tints. There Is something pecu-
liarly attractive In these sombre outsldes, with
their glowing, wealth of color disclosed, as 1t
were, by accident.
Wraps are almost without exception long
and suggestive of the dolman shape, with the
end OF the waist adjusted In the back. Gray
and enunbrown plush Jackets are short, on
tho contrary, and are trimmed with fringe
OF worsted balls or OF chenille. Some loose
mantles with hoods, and almost like circular
cioakB in form, are trimmed with glede
feathers and lined with crimson silks. Like
many other subjects OF speculation and anttc-
ipation, bonnets have not realized in all par
ticulars the predictions concerning them,
based thus far on the shape OF the round hat
which mako them higher to all appearances
than last season, but their shape Is not ma
terially altered.
Among tho new fabrics are the Mascot silks,
with canvaslike surface and high lustre,
and armure silks In cloth shades. Brocade
and satin are favorite combination bro
cade In several shades, the satin matching
one or them. New buttons have q hook at the
back, and are hooked into eyes or loops. The
bro ades oflyelvet and satin, In patterns sum.
GENTLY large to furnish q palace with hang.

worked with pearls, gold beads and jot; tulle
worked In colors TO represent peacocks aud
birds most gorgeous In plumage, with ribbons
half yard In width, with designs OF butter
flies on ground Of bright scarlet or dark
green, are among novelties FOR trimmings.
Opera cloaks are magnificent. One expen-
sive design is OF brocade, blue and silver, bor-
dered with white lace and fringe OF pearl and
crystal beads, and lined with creamy satin.
Shot silks and satins are as much In favor as
ever, especially In evening shades, to BIO coy
cred with lace draperiee. Pretty tea aprons
are now made OF the white aud cream tinted
canvas, which, cut on the bias and plated or
puffed, is now used for neck frilllngs. Nothing
can exceed the magniflcence OF some of the
new brocades, showing gold and silver grounds
with raised designs upon their surfaces
OF plush and velvet flowers In rich contrasting
shades OF wine, olive, gendarme blue and royal
cardinal.
Some OF the new outside garments are very
mannieh in style, and won't do at all for girls
who are none too feminine in aspect at the best;
but when worn by creatures dainty and sweet
as 10 exterior, they are effectively plquant.-
