KILLED BY THE TARIFF.
Failure of II Norway Iron Compan
Due to the Is Per Cent DUTY

Failure of the Norway Iron Company
Due to the As Per Cent Duty.
BosToN, Oct. 25-Albert Geiger, treas
urer of the Norway Steel and Iron COM
pany says regarding the contemplated
liquidation of the company, that the
step has been forced by a long rccog-
nized and insurmountable inability to
compete with western iron companies
such as those in Pittsburg where their
close proximity to both the iron and coal
mines gives them an enormous finan-
cial advantage over the eastern COM
panies which have to pay freight rates
on both coal and iron a%ggregating large
sums. The tariff of about IS per cent,
on railway iron is another reason which
has led the company to take this action.
Mr.. Geiger expresses the opinion that if
iron--the raw material could be import
ed free of duty, the company would be
able, despite the competition with
Pennsylvania. to continue its business
successfully.

The fact most prominent in the
election this fall is that the great ma-
jority OF the business me and those
having interests in the county are
sick and tired of the ullceasing lying
abuse which has been heaped upon
the best men in the county by such
men u Aud, Wilson and Starr. They
have been persistent viliiiers of the
very men who have ut all times been
to the front to do everything for the
good of the country, While this loud
mouthed trio have not only done moth.
ing to increase the general prosperity,
but have done everything possible to
prevent the men who have been try.
Ing to keep up the good name of Stark
county. from advancing it's interests.
Look ut the names of the men who
were delegates to the two conventions
to nominate county officers. Will any
sensible man believe that the men
who were delegates to the Republican
convention are likely to uphold IL cor
rupt ring! That they are so lacking in
intelligence and regard for their own
interests as business men. that thev
do not know by this time who are the
safest men to trust with the conduct
of county affairs! The very large ma.
jority Of the business men throughout
the county have awakened to the fact
that the county is likely to have Il ring
fastened upon it that will make them
groan in the future if the gang is not
showed under at the coming election.
