Two men of the gang of about eight saw
the danger in time to escape, but the others
were caught. By crouching close to the
mountain, near the track, they avoided
being struck by the avalanche, but they
were buried and wedged in under thirty or
forty feet of snow. Their two companions,
who escaped, proceeded to the nearest sta

TALKS ON THE TARIFF.

a. BonzauO, vice president and
chief engineer of the PhGnix
Bridge Company, in a published
letter gives this as his view of, the
probable effects of the Mills bill on
wages "Free trade IN the United
States means European pay and
European comforts for American
wOrklngmen it means that not
only the wOrkingmen will have to
labor from early morning until late
at night, but also their wives and
their children. When Mr.. Mills
proposes TO reduce the tariff on iron
SO a ton he means that the Ameri.
can workmen, whose labor pro-
duces the iron, will receive SO less
for making that ton of iron than
they now receive. The material
tor a ton of iron, as il lies in the
ground in the shape of coal, iron
ore, limestone, sand. etc, before
American labor touches it, is
scarcely worth 81. When the iron
is manufactured into bars and
ready to ship it is worth $40 per
ton, representing $50 worth Of
labor When Mr.. Mills wants to
reduce the duty &C per ton he can
not take of the SO from the 81
which the material is worth in the
ground, but it must be taken off
the workingmen's wages. The
only tariff required for the United
States is tariff for the protection
of American labor, and any bill for
lowering tariff should read, "a bill
for lowering the worRingmen's
wages That is exactly what it
means. We have here at Phoenix
vile, nearly $500 men at work
making iron. If the Mills bill bs.
comes q law It will reduce the
wOrkingmen's wages exactly the
amount as the duty per ton is de-
creased.
"If the decrease is sc per ton, it
will reduce the wages Of the men
IN Phpnixville alone $3.50, 900 a
year. Thus the Mills bill will re-
duce the workingmen's wages all
over the United States. If the
wOrkingmen are satisfied with the
lowering of wages, then let them
vote for supporter of a free trade
like Mills. If they want higher
wages, live better and more com
Portable than European working
men, let them vote for men who
will protect American labor with
a suitable tariff. Did workingmen
ever emigrate TO free trade cOun'
tries : Do the American working
men ever emigrate to free trade
countries No, they do not; but
the workingmen from free trade
countries are glad to come to the
United States, where they receive
nearly twice as much wages, con-
sequently have many more comforts
and are much happier."-Nelc York

POLITICAL J0TTInGS.
Philadelphia Press.

The Boston journal calls atten
ton to the fact that the strongest
protectiOnists we have among us
are English and Scottish mechan.
les, who have seen the evils of free
trade at home.
The campaign literature that will
be distributed this year issomethlng
stupendous. The Senate has just
ordered five additional millions OF
envelopes for wrapping Congress
sional speeches, and the House has
ordered 100000 additional en-
yelopes OF the same kind for the
same purpose.
The commercial travellers are 60
ing to be a valuable adjunct tor the
Republicans IN the coming cam
paign. Nearly all of them belong
to that party and are well mp on
the tariff question. They kt 0w
where free trade will effect their
business and will not stand back in
calling attention to that fact.
A letter from Medina, n. Y, to
the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser,
contains this significant paragraph
"Some of the leading Democrats of
Medina have a flag across the street
with Hills name at the top and
Harrison and Morton's below
This proves the statement Of the
Press, made some time ago, that
the Hill and Cleveland factions
would clash before the campaign IS
over. Hills friends are very bitter
in their feeling toward Cleveland.

Not Harrison. but Beecher.

The lie so freely circulated i'm
mediately after the nomination OF
Harrison, that he had uttered the
sentiment, "a dollar a day is
enough for any wOrkingman," has
been dropped by the Democratic
papers of the better class, as 1t was
an admitted falsehoOd. We find,
however, that it is industriously
circulated in some portions of the
country, especially in the South,
by the small country papers.
In this connection We give a let.

sets and Maine that their con-

Goldfish on the banks of New Found
land was not worth consideration
in the National Congress, and that
if they kept annoying the country
about it they would, in the end,
drive Congress into giving the full
markets of the United States to all
fishermen of the dominion.
Mr.. Blaine then cited the Ala.
bama Claims Treaty which was re-
jected by the Senate, and then
went on at great length to show
that whenever the country when
under Democratic rule had had
any dealings with Great Britain it
was made to suffer by the incapac-
lty or partisan action OF the De.
mocracy. But for the blunders of
the Democracy who backed down
from the cry of "j4-40 or fight,'
the American flag would now be
floating from the Gulf Of California
to Behring's Strait. President
Cleveland Is exactly following in
the laundering footsteps of his
party's Presidents. He closed as
follows:
On Wednesday the President was
still urging the Senate through the
entire body of Democratic Senators
to surrender all our rights in the
fisheries by agreeing to the treaty
and on Thursday he put those Sen
atOrs TO shame by directly revers-
ing the position he had strenuOusly
held for three preceding years. |
do not believe the American poo

that they will commit the Govern
ment to the great party which,
from the day of Llncoln's admins

dent Arthur's, has maintained the
force and prestige and right of the
Union against rebellion at home

An Epidemic Of Black Measles.

CHARLESTON, S. O., Aug. 26.--
The Secretary of the State board
of health has received additional
and important information concern
ing the alarming epidemic OF black
measles which is prevailing among
the colored people on plantations
along siantee river, in Georgetown
county. On the plantations OF Mr..
Hazard alone over thirty colored
people have died from the disease,
and it is SAID to be spreading so
rapidly that al entire cessation of
work on growing crops is feared.
Efforts will at once be made TO con-
troll the disease by segregating the
sick. The infected section is in the
extreme northwestern section Of
the State, remote from cities and
trade centres.

For the chaps that do the voting are COM
mencing now to mutter
That however much they love you, they
care more for bread aud butter.
You may tell me through your journals
that free trade is not intended,
That IT'S not among the great reforms
that Cleveland recommended.
That the wisest statesmen of the land
have come 10 the dicision
To give the tariff as it is most complete

There ID not strong free trader in the

But who Endorsed your platform with the

And we'd like 30 know the magnet which
has caught their prediction,
And makes them chuckle at the thought
Of Cleyeland's reelection.

THE FALSE WORK FOR BUILDING
THE c. & o. BRIDGE OVER THE
OHIO SWEPT AWAY.

THE FALSE WORK FOR BUILDING
THE c. & o. BRIDGE OVER THE
OHIO SWEPT AWAY.
CINCINNATI, o., Aug. 26.-At
10 o'clock this forenoon the false
work for building the superstruc-
ture of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railway bridge over the Ohio be.
tween Covington and Cincinnati
was swept away by a great raft OF
drlftwood that had accumulated at
its base.
This trestle work was of wood
and was over 100 feet above low
water IN the river. A V.shaped
protection of coal barges had been
formed on the upper side of the
trestle to keep of the drift, but
the drift sucked under the boats
and made an immense raft. AT
ten today this great raft, propelled
by 80 feet of water in the river,
moved and pushed the lofty trestle
work off its foundations, dropping
three hundred and fifty feet of the
iron bridge distance Of 100 feet
in the raging stream below. No
person was injured.
The trestle, with the great raft
OF driftwoOd and AatDoats, went
down the river 10 or l2 miles,
where some of il was stopped and
anchored. The iron work, OF
course, lies in the river near the
Kentucky pier of the channel span.
The losers are the contractors
the Phoenix Bridge Company.
They estimate their loss at nearly
100000. Two weeks more low
water would have made them safe.
They say that If they choose to go
to the extra expense of working
both night and day the accident
will not delay the completion OF
the bridge.
