How Free Trade Works.
To The Secretary The Home Market CLUB
pnofo1.

=
Boston:
DEAR SIR:-Thanks for the napers
you have sent me. | was in America
for about two months last summer. sent
over by our association, to see for NV.
self whether the working classes OF
your country were better off under pro-
lection than we are under free trade.
and the conclusion came to was this:
That any person who has to earn a
living in America as producer must
first become crazy before he becomes
free trader, and the formers must be
the craziest of the whole lot to think of
such thing. Before any of your work
ingmen (either engaged in manufacture
ing or agriculture) talk about free trade
let them send one of their number over
here to see what it is doing for this
country; let him walk about for six
months looking for job until his coat
gets ragged and his shoes get thin. and
he gets thinnest of all, and everywhere
he asks for work he will be told that the
Germans and Belgians are doing it
cheaper than he can do it, then let them
send for him home again and hear what
he says about free trade.
If it is the surplus revenue that is
causing the trouble, send it to som,
free trade country. You never knew
them to have surplus, or, if you don't
like to do that, take it out to sea and
sink it, or bury it, or do anything in
fact rather than adopt free trade; that
is to say, if you do not want foreign
competition to ruin your manufacturing
industries, and by so doing ruin your
farmers by robbing them of their home
market.

Runaway.

We have had a rest for come time,
from the somewhat frequent occur
renee known as runaway. Yesterday
however, the record was
broken by Tom Bsller's light wagon.
tearing round Jennings corner and
turning south along Main Street at a
rapid rate, wagons and other vehicles
were hastily pnlled to one side so as to
allow the runaway full swing. Just be-
fore reaching the old postctfice build
ing, the rig narrowly missed buggy
which was crossing the street to escape
a collision. The horse had to turn to
one side to avoid a meeting with the
aforesaid buggy and naturally
had to slacken its pace q
little; Jos. Harbetson, who had seen
the wagon round Fourth street corner,
and had taken a position in the middle
of the street. now dashed forward and
seized the lines, bringing the animal
after some difficulty to stop. The
horse, it appears. had been left united
by Mr.. Hell 'er, while he entered e. & N.
Fairs store on Fourth steet, and the
beast becoming restless, startad on a
trot. Heller started from the building
and the animal, doubtless seeing him,
struck out on a wild gallop, which
terminated in the above manner. No
damage was done, and Mr.. Heller after
thanking Mr.. Harbertson, took his seat
in the runaway rig.

Mr.. Dupaix, who owns this property

brought with him l08 pounds of bullion
which he had worked out of Star Dis
trict ore. The mill is being run night
ana day on low-grade ore from Mr..
Dupaix' own mines in Star. He has
also promise from Mr.. A. G..
Campbell that he will let him
work up all his ore. Mr.. Dupaix
has a bonanza in his Monte Cr:sto.
which will materially aid in reviving
business around Minerssii!e. He has
the only water on the Beaver in that
section of country; the dumps at the
mlnes, all picked over, are rich with
milling ore, which can be hauled to his
works and proitably crushed. Ore 60
ing less than $40 can not be
shipped to this city, but can
be handled by DR.. Dupaix 10 abvan-
tage both to himself and the mintrs
as he csn reduce it for S. q ton and gets
$l5 thus making a clear profit of $40.
