AN %Incendlnry Fire.

GARY, OAK, Nov. 6.-An incendiary
fire wiped out three of the largest bust
ness blocks in the town. The fire was
discovered In Enos & Bartlett's hard
ware store and every effort was made
to save the adjoining property. The
only mean of fighting the fire was By
the bucket brigade. Several families
living in upper SORES barely escaped
in their night clothes. Many poor
families are left entirely destitute.

The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1888-07-11

The idea of keeping the sewers clean
had not thoroughly penetrated the minds
of the engineers early in the century, and
in none of the smaller ones was it possible
to stand erect. Many were built too near
the surface, and it was sometimes neces-
sary to climb ladder to get into them.
In every case they were of solid masonry.
Until quite lately the Paris sewers were
built entirely of cut stone or partly of cut
stone and partly of soft, excessively
porous stone called meuliere. 1t is in
tended in future to build entirely of meu-
liere. The manner of using 1t is this: A
great trench is dug, in which wooden
frame is placed, the size and shape of the
desired sewer. The meuliere Is placed
about this frame and a concrete made of
the bes cement is applied in such man.
ner as to fill solidly all the cavities of the
stone and make durable wall impervious
to moisture. The frame Is removed and
the trench filled up as soon as the concrete
is sufficiently hardened.-Paris Cor. San

"You seldom see an advertisement for Q

is to advertise for collectors at a fixed sal

factory he is told that he can have the job
as soon as 10 is ready, being made to be-
lieve that he is TO have new route as
soon rs the canvassers have drummed up
enough subscribers.
"In the meantime the man is advised to
do little canvassing himself, He will be
able TO make living wages and familiarize
himself with the business. The man is,
of course, a little disappointed, but at last
consents TO become book agent for the
time being in anticipation of getting a
place as collector ut fixed salary. An
iron bound contract is then drawn up,
for the sake of formality, he is told,
by which he agrees to sell the book on
commission. He is then required to de-
posit so as security for the dummy copy
he is TO carry with him. Time passes,
and the route on which he was to serve rs
collector is as far from completed as ever.
He has found that canvassing is hard
work and doesn't pay his board. He gets
discouraged, turns in his dummy copy
and demands the return of the deposit he
paid on il. The firm refuses TO return the
money, and point to the clause in the
agreement that refers to breach of con-
tract. The firm has the law on its
side, and the man has no redress. The
cost of manufacturing these dummy
copies is not one tenth of the security de-
manded, and many firms pay their run

deposits. New York Evening Sun.

While men who are seeking to break
down the protective policy in the Unit
ed States are destined to encounter
opposition and ultimate defeat, they
are not without the encouragement of
good words and hearty support from
the English press and politicians. The
peans OF approval of the presidents
late message were somewhat hushed
by the warning of the Pail Mall Gdzette
ITO moderate the ecstacy Of their jubi-
lation, as every word spoken i'm com
mendation of the message would be
used as powerful argument against
the adoption OF its recommendations
But repression was no longer possible
when the terms of the ST. Louis plat
form and the denomination of Mr..
Cleveland were made known.
The mere fact of this foreign ecstacy
is suggestive; but when we come tn
read the terms in which it finds express
sion and the reasons given for its exist
ence, patriotic indignation is well-nigh
overwhelmed in amazement at British
arrogance and the turbulence of its
American abettors.
Referring to the shouts of the St.
Louis convention and its waving of red
handkerchiefs woven on British looms,
the London Star said, 1--WE may very
well re-echo that enthusiasm on this
side of the water, for the reelection OF
President Cleveland means the adop-
ton of his programme of tariff revision,
and his ideas on that subject go long
way towards freetrade."
And why this enthusiasm over the
prospect of freetradeg Here is the
answer given by the London Economist:
"On the adoption of freetrade by the
United States depends the greater share
of English prosperity for good many
years To come" And the British HOSierg
RecieW reiterates: 1--WE venture to
assert that England will reap the larg-
est share of any advantages that may
arise from the adoption of the ideas
now advocated by the freetrade party
i'm the United States"
During the recent session of the
English labor convention, it was assert
ed, without contradiction, that England
has 100000 workmen out of employ
ment, and numerous mills and work.
shops closed or working on short time
1t was further asserted that relief from
this unfortunate condition could be
secured in but one of two ways: First
assisted emigration; second, reduction
of the United States tariff so as to Sc
cure free admission of British manufac
tures-a privilege now refused even by
England's own colonies.
Neither of the alternatives here pre-
scented are likely to find many sympa
thizers among American workmen, who
are now called upon to decide between
the English policy Of freetrade and tn,
low wages it entails, and that policy OF
fostering home industries, by which
our country has attained her present
enviable prominence among the nations
of the earth.
