suddenly attacked by large body of
Arabs. numbering 1000, who were
hidden in the detiles close by. The
English formed a square as quickly

and mules were driven back and
stampeded, and in the confusion and

Mn. JoMN JARRETT has written strong
pamphlet in advocacy Of protective tariil
on tu.p!ate-an industry which it is well
worth while to foster. Mr.. Jarrett, aa
quoted by Pittsburgh newspaper, makes
the curious mistake OF saying that "thc
home manufacturers could not compete
with foreign manufacturers paying on an
average 12O percent lower than in this
country" This cannot be, OF coure,
unless the foreign workman not only giytf
his labor for nothing, but pays something
i1r the privilege Of working for nothing.
Mr.. jarrett knows very well that II
wages are l2O percent higher in this coun'
t y than in England, it would not ho
nathematically correct to state the prop
osition conversely, as he has done. He
has allowed his pen to slip, and some tai
enLed free-trader will find joyous COM
f,rt therein. There are, however, many
p,rsons who do not note the essential
difference between working percentages
forward or working them the other way.
For easy example, il We add fifty cents to
a dollar We increase the amount by 50 per-
cart; and if we take of the added fifty
cents tho whole sum is diminished by 80!

THE ARMY AND THE INDIANS
General Pope Urging an IncrsaSe of tn
Military Strength Of the Country.

WAsHIXaToN, D. c., Dec. 4.-Bngadier
General Crook, commanding the Depart
ment Of Arizona, in his annual report, de-
clares that the want OF harmony between
the Generals Of the Interior Department
and the military makes Indian outbreaks
possible.
Major General Schofeld, commanding
the Division OF the Missouri, in his report
says: Nothing short OF the immediate
presence Of q superior force can be relied
upon to restrain the Indians from out
break until they have advanced far be-
yond their present stage Of civilization.
OF course, troops could soon be concen-
trated TO subdue any rebellious tribe. But
the damage which might be done, even in
the time required Tor this purpoae, would
be enormous, as compared with anything
in our past experience OF Indian wars.
II desire TO pointedly invite attention
to the fact that while our present force
can, by concentration, subdue any rebel
lious tribe, as has so often been done
heretofore. the warlike tribes are no less
prepared for war now than they have
been at any former period, and that our
present military force ls manifestly insuf.
hcient to prevent or promptly suppress In-
dian outbreaks. | beg 10 submit that in
q country Of 5O,000,0O0 people $4,000 men
would be small army to bs maintained
with sole references to possible foreign
wars. But when the country has con-
stant daily use for nine-tenths Of that force
to protect its people and their property
against destruction by savage tribes in
their midst, it is extremely unwise to
limit the army to its present strength"

represented at the hearing. A committee
Of the Pittsburgh Chamber Of Commerce
argued in favor Of the use OF granite, ana
the committee from Indiana and Ohio
urged the adoption OF sandstone and
limestone respectively. There Is differ.

granite and those for sandstone aud lime.

however, that the people Of Pittsburgh
want granite, notwithstanding its greater
cost, and will not be satisfied with either
OF the other two stones. The Assistant
Secretary reserved his decision.
