Mrs. Mary Slraliane departed this life
in her SStl year ut ! l.53 am. on May LIST,
lSSS. The deceased WAS born in ireland
in the year 1900. She cmisrlte,l to
Canada in the year 1910 with her lns-
band, and resided in the county of GRAY,

removed TO Dakota and resided with her

A Woman's Discovery.

Another wonderful discovery has been
made, and that too by n lady in this coun-

her and for seven years she witl,stood
its sevcrest tests, but her vital organs
were undermined and death seemed
imminent. For three months she cough
ed necessarily and could not sleep. She
bought of lis "a bottle Of DR.. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption and was so
much relieved on taking first dose that
she slept all night, and with one bottle
has been mlraculously cured. Her

Tariff on Farm Produce.

A correspondent of the Detroit
Tribune wrote to that journal asking
it to publish a list of the farm pro-
ducts that are protected by the tariff.
Response was made by publishing the
following, which are the principal
productions thus protected, with the
rate of duty on imports:
Wool at 80 cents a pound OF less,
10 cents at over 80 cents pound,
II cents.
Beef and pork, 1 cent a pound.
Ham and bacon, 2 cents pound.
Butter, cents pound.
Lard, cents pound.
Cheese, cents pound.
Grapes, 20 per cent. ad valorem.
Wheat, 20 cents a bushel.
Oats, 10 cents bushel.
Corn, 10 cents bushel.
Rye, ID cents bushel.
Potatoes, Is cents a bushel.
Barley, 10 cents bushel.
Hay, 50 ton.
Live animals, 20 per cent. ad va
loren.
Beeswax, 20 per cent. adj valorem.
Vinegar, 10 cents a gallon.
Honey, 20 cents gallon.
Fruit, shade and ornamental trees,
shrubs, ETC., 20 per cent. ad valorem.
All vegetables not otherwise pro-
vided for, 10 per cent. ad valorem.
To the above might be added other
protected farm products such as hewn
timber, sugar, tobacco, rice and
fruits.
These items and figures are found
scattered through the tariff compila-
ton of 1884, and is possible that a
few articles have been overlooked,
although we think it practically COW
ers the list of farm products protect
ed. 1t really covers about all the
products of the farm-although on
some productions the protection is
not sufficient-wool especially should
have twice the protection it now has.
Farmers will perhaps find this list
handy for reference when confronted
by free traders who tell them that
their products get no protection.

industries of Eastern Pennsylvania.
The furnaces, one after another, are
going out of blast. Some other es-
Establishments, such as steel works,
rolling-mills, ETC., which depend upon
the furnaces for their iron, having
their sources of supply cut off must
close down also, and the loss to the
community by the closing of so many
mills and factories can hardly be es-
timated in dollars and cents. Before
the strike the iron business was good,
every furnace and mill was running j;
now more than one-half have shut
down because their coal has run out.
Within radius of few miles from
this CITY a sufficient number of men
have been thrown out of furnace work
to support 1000 to 5000 people. As
for the strike, that is still going. The
men show no sign of yielding. The
company says it has a few mines
working, but it is only with small
forces, and they are not as a rule ex-
perienced miners.

The majority of the house of rep
resentatives committee on elections
received a merited snub Tuesday in
the rejection of its report on the
Lowry White contest and the adop-
ton of the minority report by a
considerable majority. James b.
White, republican, was chosen TO
represent the twelfth district of In
diana by plurality of nearly $500
over Robert Lowry, democrat. Not
withstanding this, Lowry sought TO
obtain the seat for himself, alleging
that White, who is an Englishman
by birth though many years a resi-
dent of this country and a Union
soldier during the war of the re-
bellion, had never been naturalized.
White was able to prove, and did
prove his citizenship by oral testi-
mony, but in the absence of any
official record of the transaction the
democrat members of the committee
proposed to unseat him. Their har-
dihood was not equal, however, to
the feat Of pronouncing Lowry's
claim valid. They reported that the
election was void. The republican
minority report declared White en-
titled to the place. There was a
great deal of debate in the house on
the subject. Several democrats in
Guiding w. Bourke Cochran of New
York, vigorously espoused Whites
cause. On the final vote no less
than forty-six democrats voted to
substitute the minority for the ma
jority report, and White retains his
seat. One hundred and five dem
ocrats voted to deprive him of his
right. The question was so clearly
one of justice and right that is amaz-
ing to find l05 men willing to record
themselves on the negative side.
Mr.. Cochran and the forty-fve dem
ocrats who had the courage to speak
and vote according to their honest
convictions deserve great credit.

and other articles of general use S15.-
100000, sugar 20 per cent, making
about $40, 900; steel rails reduc-
ed to SIP ton, pig iron 81 80 a ton !:
chemicals large reduction by arti-
cles enumerated. To the free list,
besides wool, will be added, coal, iron
ore, salt and lumber. Democratic
members of the committee are not
strongly in favor of the sugar reduc-
ton. If the bill should be accepted
as whole they will permit it to re-
main, but should contest be made
they will not insist on a reduction on
sugar. The reduction of the tax on
manufactured tobacco, exclusive of
cigars and cigarettes and other min
or items, is expected to make up the
$25, 000,0 900 from that source.
