Congressman Campbell's Frank Con.
fesslOn.

Among the Democratic Congressman
who are already confessing their mistake
in voting for the Mills bill is the Hon.
James E. Campbell, Of Ohio. This is the
candid confession:
1 voted for the Mills bill, and, it is
true, we passed it by a larger majority
than we anticipated when the compila-
ton OF the measure was begun. 1t is
true, also, that we secured two Republi-
can votes and lost but three Democrats; !;
but have premonition that we have
made bad job Of it. You see, I sit on
the floor Of the House right in the center
of the Democratic members OF the Com.
mittee on Ways and Means. I have
been telling them for months that it was
fatal error to put wool on the free list,
and to make such small reduction Of
the duty on sugar. I can 60 to the map
and put my thumb on all the territory
| in the United States which produces
sugar, while there is not a county that
does not grow wool. don't understand
how otherwise long.headed men on our
side of the House have been demanding
free wool as the great panacea of Tariff
reform. / do not expect to see more
than four or five Democratic members
returned to the next House from my
State.
lam not a candidate for reelection
and do not believe I could be bere-elected
1 am what you would term mild Pro
tectionist, and yet I have voted for 9
bill with strong Free-Trade tendencies
If this bill means anything it means 9
long step toward Free-Trade, because i,
has put many Of our leading produc
tions on the free list. There may be
nothing in the fact that we passed the
bill by a majority of 13-an unlncky
number-but I have general feeling
that the Mills bill as a whole will be un
popular before the country and that j,
is mistake.-Tarig League Bulletin.

under free trade, and which ceased to
prevail when protective tariff went
into effect"

Could He Have Done More.

A few years ago when General Harri-
sons present residence was being built the
contractor, who had been paid In full, abb
seconded, leaving his workmen unpaid TO o
considerable extent. General Harrison
was under no legal obligations TO pay them,
and most men would say that he was under
no moral obligation, but he did. Ho had q
pay roll made out, and paid every ono OF the
workmen, seventeen In all, the full amount
due them from the dishonest contractor.

Rope Power Transmission.

Large electric light stations have given a
distinct impetus to the Use of wire, hemp, or
cotton rope running at high speed over a
grooved wheel instead of leather betting on
fat faced pullies. Among the advantages
claimed for the rope transmitters is economy
the rope costing about one-thirtieth as much
as the leather belt; while the former obviates
the noise at high speeds, is very much lighter
in weight, demands little attention compared
with a belt. The lstter requires man in the
business to put one on right, and sometimes
they don't always do it right; any deviation
ont of line of the shafting affects the belt,
while it has no effect on rope; the rope re-
quires less room, and will pass through
round hole little larger than its own diam
ater-Chicago News.
