Look at These Figures.

Detroit Free Press: If the work
ingman goes to the figures Of com
parative increase under low tariff
and protective tariff, he will find
that the protectionist claim is lie
and cheat. According to the statistics
compiled by Labor Commissioner
Corroll d. Wright, the average in
crease of wages from 1880 to 1860, a
period mostly OF low tariff, was 50.6
per cent. The increase in prices
was 12.7 per cent, and the net in
crease IN wages, measured by their
purchasing power, was 37.9 per cent.
How was it under the protective
tariff which has been in force since
1861? From 1860 to 1883 the aver
age advance in wages was 24.4 per
cent. The increase in prices was
l4.5 per cent. The net increase in
wages was therefore 90 per cent.
Thirty years OF low tariff therefore
gave tho workingman four times the
increase that be got in twenty three
years OF protection.

In gathering wild flowers, autumn
leaves, or picnicking in the woods we
are more or less exposed to danger from
poisoning by Ivy or other wild vines
and shrubs. The poison is under cer-
tain circumstances readily absorbed
by the blood, and painful swellings or
eruptions are caused. Such affections
Hoods Sarsaparilla readily cures, as II
expels all impurities from the blood.
Even in cases Of poisoning by Paris

OBITUARY.

Died at his home in Holly Bend,
Pope county, Arkansas, on Septem
Der 6, 1856, Alexander W. Dickey.
The deceased was born Sept. Is,
1866, therefore lacked few days of
being twenty years OF age. Although
80 young he was a model of piety and
gentility, and might we'll have been
taken for model by many OF the
boys Of the present day, considera-
bly, to their advantage. As boy
his obedience to parents and teach
ers, was always faultless, to whom
he never gave trouble or bother in
any way knowingly. In his inter
course with his associates he was the
soul OF honor and good humor. He
was a consistent member of the
Presbyterian church, also u member
Of Mt. Zion Sabbath school, and a
strict attendant to his religious du-
ties. In his death the society Of his
neighborhood lost an honorable and
dignified member, whose place would
be hard to fill; and the dear parents
q dutiful son, whose affections for
them knew no bounds. Though lost
TO his parents, friends and associates,
he yet liveth in home brighter by
far than any earthly tabernacle, look
up dear parents and mourn not as
those who have no hope. A few
more days of earthly care, and you
shall again see the genial face of the
dear departed one, shining brighter
by far than in days of yore, when
father. mother, brother and the dear
sisters shall meet in that Heavenly
Canaan where parting is no more.

New congressman.

Now COnSFcSSm0n.
New Orleans Times Democrat.
The next congress will contain an
unusual number Of new members.
There have been regularly nominat-
ed to date, emitting nominations ten
dcrcd by factions without any
strength or following, 372 candidates,
of whom 1913 are Democrats, LAG Re-
publicans, % Prohibitionists and 10
belonging to the so called Labor
party. The excess of Democrats 10
due to the fact that the Democracy
makes contest in nearly every dis
trict in the country, whereas there
are hundreds of districts without any
Republican organizations whatever,
and In which no party nominations
will be made.
OF the candidates nominated 70
date more than half are new men.
II this proportion keeps up, aud al
lowance is made for the fact that
some of the renominated candidates
may meet with defeat at the polls,
the next Congress will have decid-
ed majority OF new men, something
very unusual.
The Democratic members are suf-
fering most at the hands Of the peo
pie, bling held responsible for what
ever errors and shortcomings Con.
gress has been guilty of. Many Of
those who have been beaten are very
sore. on the subject and are disposed
to lay some Of the blame on the ad
ministration, the refusal to carry out
the popular desire in the matter Of
appointments having been visited
on them. Indeed the question OF
Federal appointments has played no
little part in several of the nomina-
tions, and in Michigan has already
succeeded in defeating for renomi-
nation four of the seven Democratic
Congressman from the State.
A great many old members will
retire from the present Congress-
some voluntarily and Others at the
request OF the people. Hanback,, OF
