KEEP UP THE FIRE.

II the press throughout the State
continues to keep up the fire at our
tardy, inactive State officials who
are alone responsible for all this
di.graceful piratical proceedings on
the Chesapeake Bay and it's tribu-
taries, by lawlcss dredgers, it will
soon bring them to account at the
bar Of an indignant people not
many months hence. A great hur-
rah was made two weeks ago that
the Secretary of the Navy had con-
sented to loan the State commons
enough to blow up the Chesapeake
Bay. Stand from under o, ye dred-
persl A counsel of war was immedi-
ateIy called by the State Board OF
Public Works, at which Brigadier
General was appointed, whose duty
it was to appoint two practical as
tistants, whose duty should be to
open a school in gunnery in which
the green crews of the oyster navy
might be taught the art Of handling
great guns. In the meantime the
oyster pirates apply their avoeatlon
and defy the laws of the State. They
have become emboldened by these
threats, and not only attack and
put to flight our poorly equipped
oyster navy, bat attack merchant
marine and passenger steamers
that eneronch upon their stolen re-
serves.
Well, out of all the cannon that
was promised but two have arrived
and been placed upon the two
steamers. Whether the instructors
have arrived with the cannon we
have not been able to learn. The
dredgers have so completely demon
allied ouroystcr navy that IL is DIM
cult to get crews to gil the places.
1t is no wonder these pirates are
bold and defy the laws when they
know they are backed up by a pc
litical element in Baltimore city
who invariably come to their rescue.
Until this prop is knocked from
under them by the honest citizens
of the State, they will continue to
carry on their lawless game.
Another disgraceful scene was
enacted last night between the Nc
Lane and the oyster pirates OF Ches
ter river, in which one sof the Me-
Lanes crew was wounded and sew
eral of the billigrantsscaptured. 1t
is enough to make our officials hide
their face in shame.

four-fifths OF human diseases have their
source in Impure Blood, medicine
which restores that fluid from a. de-
PRAYED to healthy condition comes as
near being universal cure as any that
can be produced. Ayers Sarsaparilla
affects the blood in each stage of its
formation, and is, therefore, adapted to
greater variety of complaints than any
other known medicine.

The largest item of expenditure
of the national treasury is the sum
Of $50, ssS, 500 paid for pensions
during the year past. This is a
greater sum than is paid by the
governments of Great Britain,
France and Germany combined, and
shows that the promises made to
the soldiers at the outbreak Of the
war have been religiously kept.

BoiIs and CarbuncIes,


which defy ordinary treatment, yield to
Ayers Sarsaparilla after a comparative
ly brief trial.
Mr.. C. K. Murray, of Charlottesville,
Va, writes that for years he was af-
flicted with boils which caused him
much suffering. These were succeeded
by carbuncles, of which he had several
at one time. He then began the use Of
Ayers Sarsaparilla, and after taking
three bottles, the carbuncles disap-
pcared, and for six years he has not had
even . pimple.
That insidious disease, Scrofula, is
the fruitful cause Of innumerable COM
plants. Consumption being only one of
many equally fatal. Eruptions, ulcers,
sore eyes, glandular swellings, weak
and wasted muscles, q capricious appe-
tite, and the like, are pretty sure indi-
cations of . scrofulous faint in the
system. Many otherwise beautiful faces
are disngured by pimples, eruptions,
and unsightIy blotches, which arise
from impure blood, showing the need of
Ayers Sarssparilla to remedy the evil.
All sufferers from blood disorders
should give Ayers Sarsaparilla . fair
trial, avoiding all powders, ointmenfs,
and washes. and especially cheap and
worthless compounds, which not only
fail 70 effect . cure, but more frequently
aggravatc and confirm the diseases they
are fraOdulCntly advertised to remedy.

not the Nation save just that sum- less the trine
it would have to pay for the tin used in coat
ing? That would occupy not tenth OF inc
wasted days labor. But if the foreigners should
offer us tin plates at a quarter of the present
price. which would be the cheaper the import
ed plates costing only Si,250,000 or the do
mestic tin plates costing days labor now vast
cd? The Nation has to support somehow all
these unemployed men, as it stands; it gets
nothing for their keep, and it could get tin
plates. Which is the cheaper, to use labor now
idle, or to keep the idle labor alive and send
S17,0OO,OO0 TO England for tin plates
Then there are left moro than 40 million
working days going TO waste. Last year we
bought from abroad S16,OO0OOO worth OF
wool. because it was " cheap" and S44,OOO,oOo
worth of woollen goods for the same reason.
That is why good many Of the men are not
employed. Which would be cheaper, to pay
s6O,OOO,OOO for "cheap" wool and wooliens.
or to produce them with labor now wasted
"But il would cost too much to grow wool here
or TO make woolens" Just the other way; II
costs too much TO keep in idleness people VINO
ought to be making wool and woollens, but who
are deprived of work by large imports. Let II
be supposed that GO,OO0,O00 days work, the
years labor of 200, 900 men and women, would
produce what we import. Somehow, they now
eat nd and otherwise consume what costs Sl25
yearly for each person. or S25 100000. and we
now pay $50 100000 for what they don't pro-
ducc but gladly would. That is not cheap
wool, nor cheap clothing. If Europe would
send as the goods, and Australia the wool, at
a cost of S2O,OOO,O00 instead Of 100000 00O
the entire cost to the Nation would still be
10000, 900 for things bought and S25,O0O00O
for the keep of idle workers. Made here
the same things would cost the keep of the
100000 workers now idle, and enough besides
TO make them self-rcSpccting American citizens.
That would be cheaper wool than any Aus
tlalia can ever grow.
The dearest goods the Nation can possibly
buy are those for which 1t pays the keep of idle
men and women who would gladly work. The
foreigner who wants to send goods here to take
the independent manhood from an American
ought to be required at least to contribute what
it costs to feed and clothe him. But when
President Cleveland proposes to increase the
army of idle men and women in order to get
cheaper wool and woolens from abroad, he
does not know the meaning of the word

CHEAT" "

Cheap things, the tariff reformers want. Well
if a man can make his pair Of shoes for him
self, better than any he could buy and in spare
time that would otherwise be unemployed, can
he possibly buy cheaper shoes at any price
Why, he would be just so much out Of pocket,
if his neighbor should sell him fine pair of
shoes for sixpence.
Why should the country throw away its
money, buying things nhich its own unem-
ployed labor could produce? The whole Ma
ton, like one man, has so many hours for work
every year, with which it must pay for all its
purchases. Part Of them are not employed Some
men are unemployed all the year, some have
work part of the year only, some are on strike
because their wages do not suit, some are idle
because people do not earn enough to buy all
that certain factories could produce, working
full time. Altogether, let it be supposed that
the unemployed labor is equal to the full time
of one man in an hundred say 100000 men.
each 800 working days. Then 1S0 million
working days go TO waste in year. II part
can be put into the making of tin plates which
