its entire editorial space to pushing Nc
Fetridge's candidacy. 1t reserved space

help elect Ben Harrison. Not doubt of

The secretary of treasury recently sub
mitted to the attorney general the question
whether the terms ''forgings of iron and
steel as used in the tariff act in the pro-
vision for 'forgings Of iron and steel for
vessels, steam engines and locomotives or
parts thereof, weighing each twenty-five
pounds or more covers only forgings of
the two metals combined, or both forgings
of iron and forgings of steel. The attorney
general gave it as his opinion that term
applied to both forgings of iron and forg-
ings of steel.

Hong Kong From Japanese papers of
july 10, the particulars OF the emeute in
Seol, the capital of Corea, on June 90, are
