Fought About Harrison.

IN%DlANAPoLIs, Ind, July IA serious
shooting ARRAY occurred here tonight, In
which William Dunn, q married Imam employed
at Kingan's pork house, was probably fatally
wounded. Four men were engaged In con-
versation, when Dunn approached the group
aud made . remark about Gen. Harrison.
One Of the men, Frank Ernshaw, remarked
that Sunday was no time to talk politics,
whereupoh Dunn responded that he could
whip Ersnhaw or any man In the crowd. ROB-
err Hardpense took exception to the remark,
when Dunn struck at him, but missed, and.
upon a second attempt, Hardpense drew a
revolver and fred, the ball entering just
above Dunn's right eye. Dunn was removed
to = hospital, where he lies unconscious.
Hardpense was arrested. Both men were
under the influence Of liquor, and no cause is
assigned for the shooting, except sudden
anger. Geo. w. Frcerrand, q farmer, resid.
ing eight miles south, this morning shot and
killed William Naples. The latter was drunk,
and Selling q rail from a fence, rushed upon
Freerrand. The latter retreated, at the same
time warning Naples to desist, but he con.
tinued to advance, and Frecrrand drew q
revolver and fired two shots, which struck
Naples in the breast just above the heart,
causing death in a few minutes. Frcerrand
gave himself up to the authorities.

New York Tribune: So long as the
Democracy was deprived of Southern
leaders it was silent respecting the tariff.
From 1860. when both wings of the party
reafflrMel the Buchanan declaration in
favor of progressive free trade through
out the world,' until 1876, there were no
assaults in its platforms OH home indus
tries. In 1876 The presence of Southern
leaders from all the reconstructed States
was indicated by the adoption of a ssrong
anti Protection plank, condenining th6
tariff in unmcaslrel terms, and den1add-
ing that s.all Custom House taxation
shall be only for revenue" In 1880. tile
Democracy again stood ''for d tariff for

Protection That Protects.

The statement that go per cent. pro-

true as it stands alone unqualified. 1t is
merely an assertion that does not contain,

tration will he convincing. If the water
in a poor mans cellar is ten inches hiyIl
and his rubber boots are only eight inci,-
es tall, he is not protected at all, for the
water fills his boots and they arc utterly
useless asia protective quality. If there
be no water in the cellar, then an eight
inch boot is n protection to that extent.
but even then if the water rises eight
inches the man can't move. without an
overflow. The safest way is to keep the
boots always higher than the water. So

An Eloquent Protest.

The carpet manufacturers, In their
recent protest against the reduction OF
tariff. expressed themselves Id a letter
to the Ways and Means Committee Of
the House of Representatives, as follows:
The undersigned, carpet manufacturers
of the United States. respectfully. repre-:
sent that the carpet industry Is = branch
Of manufacture which requires the most
technical skill not SURPASSED III the whole
range of textile industry; that the pat:
tcrns must be changed every season 0r
oftener to meet the demands of fashion:
that its execution requires the most pro
found knowledge of the principles of dec
orative art and of the mysteries of dyeing;
adopted by the very mills in Europe with
which it completes, and the American pro.
ducts of these inventions are admitted to
be the best Illustrations of American
achievements and of the textile art; in
sideration for which protection is ordi-
narily claimed, to the highest measure of
National encouragement.
Yet. In a bill now before your honorable
body entitled. IA Billto Reduce Taxation
and. Simplify the Laws in Relation to the
Collection of the Revenue" this industry
Is unjustly dlscriminated against. mas
much as, under said bill, manufactures Of
wool (Other than carpets) n cotton are
subject to a duty of 40 per cent nd vnlOrcm,
while carpets are put Mt 30 cent nd valorem.
Notwithstanding that flax, hemp, and
jute yarns, also dye-stuffs, which enter
into the manufacture of carpets, are still
subject to duty.
This country is the largest consumer of
carpets in the world, using more than all
the rest of the civilized world; and car
pets which were formerly, on account of
their great cost. q rare luxury, have now
| nACOm0 an article Of 20 nlnOn npcpSyitv
aud 1t is owing to the Am, ricnn develop.
ments OF carpet machinery that the cost
OF carpets has been SO reduced as tai en-
able the people of this country to use them
all but universally.
Without discussing tile merits of the
system Of protection. or of any special
tariff measure, we protest against the pro-
posed discrimination.
The protest was signed by sixty manu-
featuring firms representing nearly or
quite all engaged in the manufacture of
carpets in this country.

Last Wednesday VIM. Flannery finish.
ed threshing his crop of $50 acres on his
farm seven miles north Of Bozeman on
the East Gallatin river. 1t was threshed
by the Brown Bros, who has the largest
machine in use here. There was "a ,O37
bushels exclusive ofwhat was fed to the
stock and $50 bushels threshed off of the
farm by the Davis Bros. machine. The
4,037 bushels was threshed in seven
days. There was 35 men and from So to
40 horses used by Mr.. Flannery, to fur
nish the feeders in grain from the shock
stack tbs straw and put the grain when
threshed in the grainery 1t was all
threshed in two settings, which were
near where the grain was stored and the
men and teams were fed. This required
more teams than usual to haul fion, the
field, there being from IA to 16 used for
this purpose, but Mr.. Flanncry says that
the work was done cheaper near where
the men was boarded than it could be at
any other place. This was the largest
amount of grain raised in this valley, by
one man, this year.
