Why Wool Was Made Free.

Here is a way of looking at the free
wool question, which may strike home to
some people who have doubts on the pro.
priety Of that move. The United States
now exports less than 100000 worth of
woolen goods, while England, with un.
taxed raw material, exports more than
sl5O, 900, 900 of woolen goods. The House
committee of ways and means admirably
summed up the situation in this report
We say TO the manufacturer we have
put wool on the free list to enable him to
OBTAIN foreign markets and successfully
compete with the foreign manufscturer.
We soy TO the lsborer In the factory we put
wool on the free list 30 that II may be i'm.
ported and he may be employed TO make
me goods that are now made by foreign
labor and imported into the United STATES
We say 70 the consumer we have put wool
On the free list that he may have voolen
goods cheaper. We say 10 the domestic
voot-grower We nave put wool on the free
list 70 enable the manufacturer to imnor,
foreign wool TO mix with his own and inns
enlarge his market and quicken the DE-,
mand for the consumption OF his wool
while Il iightebs the burden of the tsr.
payer. The duty on wool now prevents
nearly all the better classes OF woods from
coming into the country, when the do
meetic product can only supply about one.
hall OF the amount required for home
These are unanswerable arguments.
They meet all objections and appeal TO
pocketbooks of all classes. And they
Will be endorsed by the people.

Two Roads Opening.

In its platform In 1884 the Republican
PARTY said; "The Democratic party has
failed completely to relieve the people OF
the burden Of unnecessary taxation by
wise reduction of the surplus. The Re-
publican party pledges itself to correct
the inequalities of the tariff and to reduce
the surplus"
II we analyze this plank, we discover
three essential propositions. First, there
b unnecessary taxation; second, there
are inequalities Of the tariff and third,
the surplus should be reduced. The
platform Of 1888 adopted at Chicago will
be hunted through in vain for the dis.
covery Of like enunciations. This latter
document takes q wholly new departure,
and afirms that rather than abolish un-
necessary taxation by duties on imports,
correct tariff inequalities, and reduce the
surplus, it is preferable to have free to-
bacco and free whisky.
It is not surprising that this deliver
ance was severe gag to many Republi'
cans who had been led to believe that
the platform Of 1884 meant what 1t said.
Such staunch Republicans in Brooklyn
rs Ex-mayor Low, Rev. DIR. Cuyler and
Rev. DIR. Storrs have boldly come out
over their own signatures to say that
they will not go with their party in this
crab-like movement. Such an uncom'
prising newspaper advocate of the Re
publican ticket as the st. Paul Pioneer.
Press could not refrain from making
these comments on the Republican
change of front
The Republican party In 1884 felt COM
pelled TO favor . judicIous revision OF the
iAriff. In 1888 the national convention,
rising to ita feet AZ one man, with o united
yell OF enthusiastic acclamation, spplauds
the declaration In substance that the tariff
must DO maintained Interchangeable as 1t is,
and that the internal taxes on tobacco, al.
Cohol, and whisky must be swept away
rather than reduce any protective duty one
iota. "
1t is fortunate that the issue this year
ID not clouded by the personalities of the
candidates. The Republican press states
It concisely and at the same time ex'
poses the party weakness on this point
The Democratic position grows stronger
day by day. When November comes
around we will hear less OF the cry o
free trade, because 1t will be shown t
be baseless. The people will be re
quired to face the two roads that vii
open before them. One will lead alonl
the thorny highway OF unnecessary taxa
tion and extravagant expenditures. Th'
other viii point to flowery paths wheI,
taxation is limited to the needs Of thu
government economically administered
and where the surplus will remain in til,
pockets of the people. The voters can b'
safely left to decide the questions whicl
road they will choose.

Exhibition of St. Elmo,s Fire.

A remarkable exhibition of St. Elmo's fire was recently witnessed by the writer on the summit of the Sonnblick noun tain, in Austria, about 10000 feet above the sea level.
 The synoptic weather chart shows that there was at the time ridge of high pressure over central Europe, with light and variable winds at the lower level stations. On the Sonnblick it had rained all day, with a southwest to southerly gale. The pressure, which was high (nearly 20.7 inches, the normal being 20.3 inches), was falling irregularly, and the temperature was about 37 degs. Fahrenheit. About D. m., with sud- den shift of the wind to the north, the pressure rose and the temperature fell to 30 degs. Fahrenheit, causing rain to change to sleet and snow. About this time brushes of violet light were noticed outside the observatory upon the points of the lightning rod, the anemometer cups, etc., and even upon projecting pieces of rock. From the heads of the observers and from their outstretched lands similar brushes of light streamed i Resembling the positive discharge from an electric machine), accompanied by a cracking noise and pricllipg sensation: 1 This continued until the wind, which meanwhile had fallen to calm, changed it's direction to southwest, and the press ure became stationary. The temperature soon rose above the freezing point, but the snow continued to fall for some l hours. Electrical Review.

The A. O. U. ".

The growth of the A. O. U. W. has indeed been marvellous. Twenty years ago in the village of Meadville, Pa., little band of thirteen men were gath cred together to found a society to help their fellow men. Their leader was a locomotive engineer, and they organized a society which is now known in every village and hamlet, and from the modest beginning of thirteen mem bers has now grown to include over 450,000 souls. On the 27th day of October 1868 this beginning was made, and to-day its members are enjoying the fruits of the labor of these thirteen men. The character of the man at the head of this movement had great deal to do with its success. He was a locomotive engineer with all the name implies-devotion to duty, un- Tagging and irresistible The institu- tion has nothing to do with labor or laborers per SC, politics or religion di- rectly, but is concerned with the pro- lection of the family and the benefit of all mankind. It is called ancient because the principles upon which it is based are as old as the everlasting hills. All are workers and earn their bread in one way or another, always giving the world the equivalent of what they receive. The A. o. U. W. lodges are found throughout the country doing the work for which they were established.-Optic.

prexico.s "cradle of Ianartx. .,

Alter Cortez conquered the Aztecs and established himself in the valley of Mex. ico, the Tarascans sent ambassadors to him and asked for teachers who would instruct them how to approach and make terms with the all powerful Christian gods. The Spanfard forwarded mission. aries, who turned the Tarascans by thou sands from their idols and baptized them into the Catholic faith. The Tarascans became allies of the Spaniards, paid tri- bute and were loyal. When Nino de Guzman, the first president of the first andeacia, as the Spanish form of gov ernment was called, started out to con quer the country of Jalisco on the west ern coast of Mexico. he called on tho calzontzin, the king of the Tarascans. to furnish 10000 warriors and a vast amount of gold and silver. The ealzontzin promptly supplied the men, but told the president he could not furnish all the gold Guzman affected to disbeieve him and burned him, at the same time torturing many subordinate officials of the Tarascan dynasty to make them reveal the sup posed hiding place of the treasure. The Tarascan dynasty fell; the affrighted Indians hid among the hills and noun tains about Lake Patzcuero. They have never forgotten that awful persecution.
 The good Bishop Quiroga spent his life trying to undo the mischief wrought by Guzman. He won the Tarascans back to the faith and to great personal love of himself, but the portion of the country they inhabit has been the breeding place of so many revolutions that it has become known in Mexican history as ''the cradle of liberty.

The Sample Mine.

The San Pedro company received yesterday returns from a shipment of four tons and half of ore, sent in to Tucson as return freight for the wagons which had brought out the timber That part of the ore taken from the rich chute at the 175 feet level, ran 400 ounces to the ton. That taken out in straightening the old shaft near the surface ran 175 ounces. The superin- tendent writes that he has about 8 tons of ore, running from 30 to 50 ounces to the ton, which he took out of the shaft and levels before reaching the rich ore chute, and besides this large body of milling ore of about the same grade was previously on the dump. The shaft has been strengthened and timbered, and the work of sinking to the 300 feet level is being pushed as rapidly as possible. A depth of 200 feet has now been reached. At the 300 feet level drift will be run to the rich ore chute or chimney.-St. Louis Mining News.

The indiscriminate discharge of fire

The indiscriminate discharge of fire arms within the limits of the town should be absolutely prohibited. It is not unusual for nervous people to be startled with several shots fired in sue cession near by, although the fact that they were the mere emptying of a gun after days hunt, or fired in target practice, is not apparent to the timid listener. It is far better that the prac- tice be suppressed entirely.
 A fatal accident occurred at Silver King on Thursday evening of last week Joseph Costa, miner work ing on the S00-foot level of the mine, attempted to get into the ascending cage and only partially succeeded ill doing so. Other workmen in the cage tried to assist him in, but he was caught between the cage and the tim bers and his head was crushed, causing instant death. It also tore him loose from the cage and the body fell to the 900 level where it was picked up,
 Almost every town in the Territory except Florence is taking steps to cele- brate in an appropriate manner the coming Fourth of July. There cer- tainly ought to be a sufficient spirit of patriotism in the people of this place | to make some sort of demonstration on that holiday and it is suggested that the initiatOry steps be taken the coming week to consider the subject. Globe is doing itself proud in this re- spect and its handsome posters have found their way into all adjacent towns and settlements, and surely Florence ought not to permit the day to pass with indifference.

It is believed he was stung il an artery by a scorpion, as his body turned blue and yellow in spots i'm mediately after death. He was { bright little boy and would have beer four years of age on November 2d next. The afflicted parents have the sympathy of the entire community il their sad bereavement.
