VIM Z. Curtis, in the Chicago Dufly

1883. said:
"This year, they the distillers will sup
port Post Republican against Worihing-
ton Democrat for, although Post comes

Again, WOrthington would have voted
for the Mills bill, and Post fought it as hard

Tho Disastrous Consequences.

Four years ago the Democrats, as now,
were accused of being the free trade party
by their Republican opponents. Free trade
was predicted certainty In case OF Cleve-
lands election; and to frighten timid and
uninformed voters In the last hours Of the
campaign In New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut, numerous manufacturers gave
IL as their "opinion" that should Cleveland
be elected, the closing of their works was
certain to follow the Inauguration.
Well, all the world knows that this dire
result did not happen. On the contrary,
business revived, and for two or three years
the whole country enjoyed "boom," which
continued until the enormous productive
capacity of our industries, confined neces-
sarily, by the action of high tariff, to a
"home market for their products over
stocked that market, leading to strikes,
lock outs, shutting down of works, and the
erection of trusts to limit production and
maintain prices .....
1t would be an interesting task to exam
anime into the condition of the works
whose owners predicted ruin for them.
selves In case of Cleveland's election In
1884, though the task would be an endless
one, perhaps. The New York Evening
Post, however, has partially undertaken the
work by re.pub.ishing interviews of that
nature published in the New York Tribune
on Nov. 3d-the eve of the 1884 election
and sending a correspondent to find out
how they have prospered In the past -four
wears. OF all the Is factories whose own
ers predicted ruin, only two have failed to
do prosperous business: The Bridgeton

Killed by "A Waterman,


StreatOr was again the scene of brutal
murder, on Monday evening last, when Pat
rick Collins was shot down in cold blood by
william Rosenhonse, Waterman at the San
ia Fe depot.
Rosenhonse is Swede, and had resided
in Streator about two months, during which
he had been employed by the Santa Fee
road, first as section hand and of late weeks
as Waterman at the depot. Since the tenth
OF the present month about one hundred
construction men of the line, had been in
and about the depot and yards. Most of
them we're partial to liquor, and on Monday
night dozen or more, who were intoxicated
were hanging about the depot. Rosenhonse,
who is alleged to have been intoxicated also,
was on duty, and shortly sfter midnight
shot and killed Patrick Collins. He called
up the patrol wagon, gave himself up, and
wac locked in the city Jail pending the cor
oner's inquest,
Deputy coroner Bullock impaneled jury
on Tuesday morning and proceeded to in
vestigate.
The first witness. young man named
Conner who works rs laborer in the Santa
Fe yards, was present at the shooting and
saw all that transpired. He was at work
about the yard and heard a disturbance. The
watchman had Patrick Collins down on the
track and was beating him. He then pick
ed him up and showed him into the depot.
Collins asked why he was arrested, and the
Waterman said he was drunk and had walk
ell across the tracks. Collins denied that
he was intoxicated and started several times
to get up, but WAS each time pushed down
by the watchman. He then got up and
walked across the room, and the Waterman
told him to sit down, or he would knock
him down Collins refused and the watch
man knocked him to the floor. He got up
again and was again knocked down. Here
man named Foley interfered and remon-
strated with the Waterman for his brutality,
and the latter claimed that he had arrested
Collins because he was drunk. Foley said
that Rosenhonse was much the more intox
icated of the two. The witness had his back
turned just at this juncturs. and some one
struck Rosenhonse in the mouth, making
his lips bleed. he thereupon walked out
Of the door to the platform, threatening to
shoot Foley stepped out followed by Col
Inns, and the watchman walked away with
his revolver in his hand. Collins called to
the watchmsn and going up to him, said
something which the witness did not hear
when Resenhonse raised his revolver and
fred. Collins fell to the ground, and all
ran away, fearing that Rosenhonse would
continue his murderous work.
Foley and others subtantiated the state
ment of Connor, and the coroners jury held
Rosenbronse, without bail to the grand jury,
for murder in the first degree.
Collins was employed on the road as q
section hand for many years, and bore an
unusually good reputation for sobriety and
truthfulness, and was one OF the most peace
able and orderly men On the line. He had
worked on line all summer la the water
service department at Joliet, and work be-
ing dull there, was transferred to Sireator

The Origin of Potter Warn.

Every man, no doubt, used his Gourd as
gourd alone. But as time went on he
began at last, apparently. to employ it as
model for pottery also. In all proba.
bility his earliest lessons in the fictile art
were purely accidental 1t is a common
trick with savages to put water to warm
on the camp fire in a oalabash or Courd
with wet clay smeared over the bottom to
keep 1T from burning Whenever the
clay thus employed was fine enough to
form mold and bake hard in shape, it
would cling to the gourd. and be used
time and again in the same way without
renewal, till at last it came to be regarded
almost as component part of the COM
pound vessel Traces Of this stage in the
evolution of pottery still exist in various
outlying corners of the world Savages
have been noted who smear their dishes
with clay; and bowls may be found in
various museums which still contain more
or less intact the relics of tho natural OBJ
1ect on which they were modelled. In one
case the thing being imbedded in the clay
bowl is a human skull. presumably an
enemy's.
In most cases. however. the inner gourd
or calabash, in proportion as 1t was well
coated up to the very top with a good
productive layer of clay. would tend to
get burned out by the heat of the fire In
the course Of time; until at last tho idea
would arise that the natural form was
nothing more than a mere mold or model,
and that the earthenwalo dish which grew
up around 1t was the substantive vessel
AS soon as this stage of pot making was
arrived at, the process of firing would be-
come deliberate, instead OF accidental.
and the vessel would only be considered
complete as soon as it had been subjected
to a great heat which would effectually
burn out the gourd or calabash imbcdded
