UPON THE SAME PRINCIPLE.

Hon. VIM. Mckinley spoke last
week in Atlanta on the tariff. 1t
was a strong, clear-cut talk. We
give below a good putting OF a
phase of the question not often men.
toned, but full OF Importance to
every town in the United States.
We quote from the Baltimore Amer.
lean
"The itinerant yender is taxed III
every city of the land. II he would
expose his wares upon the streets Of
Atlanta at public auction, | doubt
not the city government compels
him to pay a tax for the privilege of
doing it, and that tax is added to
the ordinary revenue of the city to
assist in meeting its obligations.
Now, why is this done I? Upon exact
ly the same principle that we tax
the foreign competing product under
the system of protection. 1t is done
to protect and defend the resident
merchants of your city, who are with
you always, within your jurisdiction,
subject to your laws, contributing
to the wealth and progress of your
city, paying taxes to adOrn and
beautify it, paying taxes to support
your public schools and make i'm
provements. The itinerant vender
has no such relation to your CON-
munity. He is no part Of your
political organism. He comes and
goes; he is not a tax payer he
shares in none of the burdens of the
people; he is a free.trader, who looks
upon your market as much as his and
as open to him as TO your own
trades, people. Your city govern
ment takes him to diminish the
burdens borne by your own citizens
This is protection, simple, land is the
pure, and is the exact character Of
that which we would apply to for
eign nations seeking our markets.

Startling Discovery.

The discovery by the inhabitants of a local

Not any one step hath chance fashioned

1t must be wrought out through the

He giveth not to be unworthy, the weak

Who giveth but chaff at the seed-time

VEsTIBULED TRAINS ON THE B..
& O. r. R.-The first of the Balti-
more and Ohio CompaDy's new vesti-
buled trains has been out of Mt. Clare
Shops and an experimental trip was
made with it August 10th. The train
was run from Baltimore to Keyser,
2l5 miles, in five hours. On the line
between Baltimore and Keyser are
some of sharpest curves on the B. &
o. Road, but Notwithstanding the
high rate of speed maintained the
swaying of the train was scarcely per-
ceptible, the oscillation at.the top of
the car not exceeding six inches.
This test fully demonstrates what
has heretofore been claimed for the
vistibule device and that is, that it
effectually obviates the swaying mo-
tion impaired to train in rounding
curves at high speed. The new train
will be i'm mediately placed in regu-
lar service between Philadelphia and
Chicago.
All other through trains on the B..
g. O. will be fitted with the vestibule
appliances as rapidly as possible, and
within the next sixty days it is
thought to have the work completed.

FARMERS MADE HAPPY.

Dollar wheat last week, the first
time in four years, will fall on the
farmers ears like the gentle rain
upon parclled ground. With wheat
at dollar bushel and fair crops
there is profit for the grain-grower
but anything below that figure
brings care and doubt. Many Mary,
land farmers have already shipped
their crops, and will be unable to
reap the benefit of the rise in price
but should it be maintained for any
considerable period, they will de.
rive hope and encouragement for
more vigorous exertions hereafter.
While the present jump in wheat
may be only temporary, there are
good grounds for believing that il
will command higher price before
the winter sets in. The estimated
shortage of this years crop is fifty
million bushels, while what is known
as the invisible supply THAT
which is held over in the hands OF
the producers, sometimes a large
item-is thought to be at present
little or nothing: The crop in Eng.
land has been almost a total failure,
nor will the French yield any great
er. India will export an average
crop, while Roumania is largely
short, and in Russia only was there
an abundant yield. Experts claim
that the average of European crops
will DE the worst during the century.
Ordinarily, the failure of wheat
forces the poorer classes in Great
Britain and Ireland to fall back upon
potatoes and rye, but they are this
year deprived of this reliance. Pota-
toes have failed in both England and
Ireland, and rye in Germany and
there will be demand for all surplus
wheat raised in America. There
must be added to this the constant
dread OF war which prevails in Eu.
rope. With six or seven millions of
men under arms, to be provided
with rations at moments notice,
and Russia, the power most to be
feared, bountifully supplied, it would
be folly for the other possible COM
batants to neglect provisions for a
rainy day.

THE ANARCHISTS CONFESSION.
One of The ConspiratOrs Turns States
Evidence.
Edison's PhOnograph Sold For One Million
Dollars.
ESPECIAL TO THE AsToB1AN.) }

CHICAGO, July 19.-Frank Chebowa,
one OF the three anarchists arrested
by inspector Bonfeld for conspiracy,
has made full and formal confess
sion. 1t was that Kronck had un-
folded to Chebowa, the plans of the
anarchists for revenging Fieldep,
Parsons, Spies and other Haymarket
offenders; and had told of the bomb
which he (Kronck) had invented. 1t
was no larger than a baseball and
was to be be loaded with dynamite
and bits of broken glass. It was de-
MED by Chebowa, that there was a
plot to murder the judges and the
inspector, that is, he heard of no such
definite scheme. They were talked of
as was Capt. Schasck and he under
stood that he was to pay more atten-
ton to the captain than to any one
else.
There was no concerted plan of
action, but it was agreed that when
all preparations were made he, and
two Others were to be informed by
Kronck, who brought him two bombs
OF broken glass and two sticks of
dynamite from which he was to make
bombs of gas-pipe after the usual
pattern. The other two men were
supplied with bombs and dynamite.
He had the stuff in his house for
about week and then grew so afraid
that it would he discovered, that he
threw it in the privy vault. This
was the substance of the confession,
which inspector Bonfeld will use in
| court.
The confession is much more in
detail and covers about 80 closely
printed pages. By his confession il
is understood Chebowa has virtually
secured immunity from prosecution.
He is really much less guilty than
either Wolf, Kronck, Chepak, or any
one Of the men not yet arrested. He
has agreed to give his testimony in
open court, where it will corroborate
with other evidence secured by in
spector Bonfeld, against the con-
spirators. Two other men are still at
large but they may be arrested at any
time.
