Tom Phillips Waylaid and
Assassinated.

Thursday of last week, tho lth.
inst, Mr.. Thomas B. Phillips was
waylaid at Bartield Point, and killed
by one of his tenants, named Hamp.
ton.
1t appears Hampton aud la man by
the name of Cooper, both tenants
on Phillips farm, sought to evade
the payment of their rent notes OF
contract, from which dispute arose
between them and their landlord
Phillips. When they parted, Harnp-
ton and Cooper went in the direo-
tion of the farm, Phillips to Rucker
4 Co.'S store at Baricld, there 10
make arrangements and consult his
friends as to the best way to collect
his rent and settle the trouble witt,
his tenants. Leaving Rucker's store,
he was accompanied by Mr.. Col
Inns, an engineer in the employ of
Mr.. J. J. Carr, on the way to the lat :
ter's store, short distance below
Barield landing. When about half
way and to one side from the path
they were travelling, Hampton raised
up from the weeds in which he and
Cooper were concealed, aud called
out to Phillips TO throw up his hands,
and Immediately fired; the fire was
reneateL tho seconl and third tino
The first shot pierced Philips body,
aud struck Collins who was behind
him, in the arm, shattering the bone I;
the second hit Phillips in the leg.
Phillips lived but IA few moments.
Hampton surrendered, and his nc-
complice was arrested. 10th are
now in Jail, while not undergoing a
preliminary examination before a
Justices Court, which began Thurs
day afternoon.

Why Pennsylvania operatives pay

when English operatives get cot

How protection protects working

come in duty free.
Why cotton operatives in Massa-
chusetts work sixty hours and in
other New England states sixty-six

English operatives work only fifty
six!

Why wool averaged rs cents in

Mr.. Blaine Makes o Free
Trade Speech.


"What's the matter with James
q. Blaine:" asked Gov. Alger, when
he introduced him to Michigan au-
dience the other day. What, indeed,
is the matter with James &. Blaine
when he makes an address like this:
"The principle of protection can.
not be applied in every country with
the same value and the same profit,
and will tell you why it has become
OF lasting profit to the United States.
1t is because the United States is a
world within itself. Now if we were
II little narrow country that only had
one or two products, probably if we
sought to protect those products we
would only raise the price upon our.
selves; but we have country that
extends from the Atlantic to the Pa
ciiic, from the Gulf to the lakes, from
latitude %, on the borders Of the
tropic of Cancer, to latitude 40, away
off on the borders Of British Colum-
bia. We have the semi-tropical pro-
ducts in Southern California, and in
the Northern attitudes we have the
cereals; we have the fruits, we have
cotton, we have wool, we have hemp
we have world within ourselves"
What an argument that, in favor
of free trade. ave have" he SAYS,
ga world within ourselves" What
then have we to fear from any other
nation on the face Of the earth.
None can make so splendid boast,
none except ourselves. Does Mr..
Blaine think then that because we
have world OF our own we should
surround it with an impenetrahle
barrier, and that, pent up we shall
remain, sitting all desire to go forth
and conquer other worlds:-- Mem
