SATURDAY, NOVEMBER "A, 1885.
The price of nails has advance

The price of nails has advanced
so rapidly within the past two
weeks as to cause much alarm
among contractors and the trade.
The strike of nailers which occurred
in June last, seems to be the cause
of the advance, as the demand now
is far in exceeds of the supply. If
this was the case in other manufac-
turers, what a beneficial effect it
would have on the depressed condi-
ton of business. We want no boom
but we want a steady and strong
demand, and the channels of sup
ply will then have a duty to per-
form that will bring about a healthy
state of affairs generally. Over
production will soon be buried be-
meath the flood of demand. 1t can
not come too soon.

peddled sweetmeats and who is known
probably to every business man in the
city. For years it has been his custom
to visit the newspaper offices at all hour
of the night and supply the tired worker
with lunch. Sam is very religious
man despite the fact that his pies some
times are short in weight, and nothing
shocks him half so much as to hear
profane word. He is wont to deliver
solemn warning of the fate which await
those we do not embrace religion. Hi

In THIS issue, under the head of
Peoples Column, appears an article
over the signature of "One of The
People" which cannot fail to attract
the attention of many ofour worthy
citizens. The writer makes several
suggestions in relation to giving en-
enlargement to enterprises, and
making inducements to warrant
such to locate in our midst. While
Zone of The Peoples" views may
not meet with the approval of those
whom he names in his letter, yet
they cannot fail of some little recog-
milton, because the theories advanc-
ed are practical and easily possible.
No other town on the Peninsula
has such railroad facilities and GER
tainly no more desirable place
could be selected by a manufactur-
er. Here everything is in his favor.
Encouragement is what is most
needed. Substantial encourage
melt and not that kind which bears
no fruit. The Peoples Column is
always open for the DISCUSSION on
subjects of interest and it is our de-
sire that those interested will ex-
press themselves in this way.

THE Philadelphia Sunday Press"
of the Sth, contained a letter from
New York, written by Howard, in
which he employed considerable
space to the subject Of boys and
their chances in life. He said the
life of the average telegraph messen-
ger was fraught with anything but
good, and as they have to visit all
classes of people and places, the
morals they encounter are far from
elevating. They are compelled to
run the streets, day and night,
amidst storm and sunshine, and
their opportunities for gaining an
education are meagre in the extreme.
In speaking of tho various trades
which boys might profitably learn,
he placed first that of type setting.
Surely no branch of industry so
benefits boy in after life as that
Of printer, if he only applies dill
gently and studiously as he adj
vances through its many depart
ments. And yet how very few
boys seek place in a printing of.
flee. You ask why? Well, in the
first place, the money compensation
is very limited and in the second
mills and factories draw very large,
ly from the boyish ranks, where
more money can be earned in two
weeks than in a month as a print
er's devil. But what Howard wants
to impress upon parents most is
that it is far better for their boys t.
learn some useful trade, than t,
drag away the best part of thei
lives in some capacity that ncithe
elevates or instructs.

A RESUMPTION of work at the
Roach shipyard, Chester, Pa, on
Monday last, must naturally have
gladdened the hearts of many work

claimed for months. 1t is the i'll

continue work after the steel cruis-

and it is to be hoped that hundreds
will find permanent employment
there for many years yet to come.

WILT ABOUT 81. JOHN?
Did He Offer to Uittdrdtc From the Prest-

Did He Offer to Uiadra,U From the Presi-
Dental Race for a Money Consideration?
The following letter from J. S. Garrison,
editor of the iowa Register and member of
the republican national committee, was sent
by him to the Chicago Tribune:
In reply to your direct inquiry if knew
personally as to whether or not John P. St.
John offered TO withdraw as a candidate for
president for money consideration, can
answer now only as the fact. without yet being
at liberty to make public the details. To my
knowledge. he did have overtures made
through a friend from his own state. by which
he offered. if paid $500 in cash, to withdraw
as a candidate altogether or to stay in the
field and feather his speeches, as it was
put in the Kansan's phrase, to the help of
the republican party. He was asked, in
order to prove the sincerity of his offer, to
Withdraw from Ohio the last week before
the October election in that state. He did this
under the plea, which he said he would give,
of getting sore throat. and, with the frieRd
have mentioned, went first to Pittsburg, next
to Philadelphia and finally to New York where
he hoped to meet some one on the part Of the
republican national committee who would be
ready to make the deal and pay the cash. On
the goth of October, through his friend. in
letter still in existence, he alleged Ohio to
have been carried by him in getting sore
throat one week for the benefit of the repub-
lican party. This letter and other facts of de
tail, which will convince any fair minded
person of the real character of st. John and
show to the country what thrifty Christian
he is, will be given to the press whenever he
shall ask and persuade his friend. who was
the medium of his Overtures, 10 give his con-
sent to have them made public. L may add
that neither the national committee, or any
one acting for it, ever made an overture or
proposition of any kind to st. John. All that
it did was to listen to and discuss the over
lures and propositions made to it through
the medium which he employed to reach 1t.
Several other members of the national COM
mittee and some other gentlemen connected
with the Ohio campaign had frequent CONVEX
sations with this friend of st. John and are as
converSant with the facts and details of it as
myself. They know that St. Johns friend
was in constant telegraphic and frequen. per-
sonal consulta ion with him, and that things
which were demanded of st. John as to his
movements in Ohio were pledged by that
friend and carried out by St. John in many
ways. Ample evidence was thus afforded US,
including he exchange of Geographic CORE
spondence between them and shown to sew
eral persons. proving that this friend was act
ing with st. John aud under his authority.
One other pc on is in possession of more
written evidence than l have.

NEWS OF NEBRASKA.

THE HAZEN MYsTERY.-Uncle John Morri
son, says the Lincoln Journal, who went to
omaha yesterday for the purpose of COM
pleting, IL possible, the identification of
the body of his son-in-lav, James e. Hagen,
returned last night. Hesays he identified the
body as that of Mr.. Hagen beyond doubt.
and that the coroner and others who were in
terestcd I'm the matter are all satisfied that the
identification is as complete as need be. The
1denttfication of the ring and the keys which
were found with the body when 1t wss FIRST
discovered. were a reasonably sufficient proof
OF the identity. In addition to this Mr.. Nor
rison learned from Mrs. Hagen that
her husband had lost most of his back teeth,
while the front ones were yet good. An ex-
animation of the skull show that the teeth
correspond exactly to the description given
by Mrs. Hagen MIR. Morrison says that,
while the Fl sh was nearly rome from the
head, he yet cognized the size and shape of
the head very distinctly.
Mr.. Hagen disappeared on March A. and
his body was found on June q. Mr.. Morrison
thinks that he was doubtless murdered by
thugs ard thrown into the river. He says
that several men have disappeared from Oma-
ha within year or so past, and some OF them
have never been heard of since.
