A DESPERATE EFFORT.

The statement is made on good au-
thority that the Republican manufac-
turers of Pennsylvania have contrib
uted large sum of money TO be used
in this district for the defeat OF Hon.
VIM. l.. Wilson. These beneficiaries
of high tariff recognize and fear the
able and courageous efforts of our
brilliant Congressman in the service
of tariff reform, and they are deter
mined to crush him if possible. Four
years ago, we think it was, these same
tactics were successfully used to de-
feat William r. Morrison, of Illinois;
two years ago they almost succeeded
in defeating Mr.. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky. Are the voters of this district
to be bought like sheep by these mo-
nopolistic Pennsylvanians? We don't
think so. The warning is given. Let
every Democrat use his influence-all
his infiuence-to prevent this foul out
rage from being perpetrated upon us.
Come to the polls though the heavens
fall. Try and convert your doubtful
neighbors Argue the cause of tariff
reform with your Republican friends.
Watch, fight and pray.

rial district have nominated Hon. T.
j. Farnsworth, of Buckhannon, for
the State Senate.
All the passenger conductors on the
kanawha and Ohio Railroad were
discharged last week. No reason was
given by the company for the dis
charge.
Early one morning last week burg

Huntington, blew up the safe, and
robbed it of 500 in cash and papers
valued at 200. No clue to the rob

A Powder Magazine Blown Up.

About 7 o'clock last Saturday even
ing Browns powder magazine, near
Roanoke, Va, blew up, giving the en-
tire city a terrible shock, breaking a
great number of plate-glass store
fronts and hundreds of panes Of glass
i'm private residences. The magazine
was situated about a mile from the
city, and contained 400 kegs of powder
and $500 pounds Of dynamite. The
entire population was terribly scared,
and much excitement prevailed. The
amount of damage caused by the eX-
plosion will, perhaps, foot up in the
thousands. The house Of Mr. McClan-
ahah, near the scene of the explosion,
was badly shaken, the lamps thrown
down and nearly all the crockery
broken. Portions of human body,
some clothing, a watch-case, a pistol
containing three uneXploded cartrid-
ges, and SLIT in coin were found scat
tered over the hillside several hundred
yards distant. The man is supposed
to have been William Brown, a native
of Tennessee, who was EN- route for
his home, mile beyond the maya
zine. Two young men left the city
with him, and as they have not been
heard of since it is feared they, too,
were killed. There is much specula
ton about the cause of the explosion,
many believing it was caused by
Brown firing a pistol-ball through
the corrugated iron casing.

THE SENATE TARIFF BILL.

The more the tariff bill promulgated
by the Republican Senators is studied,
the less pleasing it is to the great mass
of people Forced by public opinion
to present some measure TO reduce the
surplus, it apparently yields to this
demand while at the same time it is
really doing more harm than good.
1t viciously attacks the sugar indus
try of the South by reducing the duty
about one-half, while it increases the
opportunities for robbery In the North
bv increasing the duties on wooden
goods and metals 1t maintains the
duties on raw materials. 1t keeps up
the prices on the necessaries of life
such as wearing apparel and the tools
and articles of every day use. 1t Of
fers to the tax-ridden people free to-
bacco and free whiskey, when there Is
a cry for cheap necessities instead. 1t
tells the people that the war taxes
must be kept up, and plainly shows
that the rich must not be deprived OF
their hundred per cent, even though
the poor starve. it has few redeem
ing features, and fortunately will
never become law.

THERE ARE NO TRUSTS.

Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, eminent Re-
publican, chum of Mr.. Blaine, especial
pet of the high tariff laws, and bull
dozer of dependent laborers, made a
few remarks on the subject of trusts
the other day. He says there are no
trusts. And if there are such things
they don't harm anybody. Well, we
will mention a few examples of what
have been generally known as trusts,
and our readers can judge for them
selves as to the good or evil effects OF
them.
The straw board trust shut down
the paper mill in Shepherdstown, so
as to limit production and keep up
prices of their product How do the
fifty laboring men thus thrown out OF
employment regard this?
The sugar trust, besides closing a
number of refineries and depriving
hundreds of men of work at the be-
ginning of winter, has put up the
price of sugar two cents pound III
the last year or so. Who foots that
bill?
The coal combination have their
affairs in such fine working order that
not one ton of hard coal can be bought
except at the exorbitant prices that
they levy on the consumer.
The typefounders have formed a
trust and put up the prices about 70
per cent, while all the envelope max
ers have combined to add 20 to 30
cents a thousand on envelopes.
If you try to buy a coffin, even, you
will find that every coflinmanufactory
in the United States, except two, are
members of a trust
Take the steel rail business. What
would Mr.. Carnegie call the agree
ment which he has recently consum-
mated with other manufacturers for
the purpose of putting upprices andre
stricting competition?
Take any article you please, trace
its history back to the beginning, and
see if its price is not in some way af
fected by greedy scheme of the man
ufacturer or the man who furnishes
the material Mr. Blaine, Mr.. Carne-
gle and the advocates of a high tariff
may deny the existence of trusts, or
call them by any name they please,
the fact remains that the people are
being Systematically plundered i'll
thousand ways-in ways that they
can see for themselves unless they are
blind and deaf.
The victory for tariff reform in No
vember means death TO these upright
eous combinations.

Death On the Rail.

A fearful collision occurred about
midnight last Saturday near Dicker-
sons Station on the Metropolitan
Branch of the Baltimore 4 Ohio Rail-
road. The Cincinnati and st. Louis
express going west collided with
freight train going east, on short
curve in a deep cut. 1t seems that the
freight train had orders to lay on a
siding until three passengers trains
passed. The entire crew went to
Sleep, as they claim that they were
worn out with SO hours continuous
work. When the second passenger
train passed, they awoke, and think
ing it was the third they pulled out.
The freight train had scarcely gone a
mile, when the express train dashed
around the curve in front of 1t at the
rate of 40 miles an hour. There was
a sudden flash of headlights, and the
trainmen on the two engines were APP
palled at the coming disaster, which
they Immediately saw could not be
avoided. The two engines were al
most upon each other, and the engin-
GERS saw that nothing could be done,
and that il was useless to apply the
brakes Jump, boys" shouted En-
gineer J. f. Welch, of the freight
train, as he sprang from his cab to
the side of the track, but his fireman,
j. b. Virts, had no time TO get from
his place at the furnace, and John
Ridenbaugh, a brakeman, was so
paralyzed with fear that he was una
BILE to heed the engineers admonition.
In an instant the two engines came
together with such fearful velocity
that they stood locked together on
the track, and formed base upon
which was piled in confusion pyra-
mid twenty feet high, consisting OF
three wrecked freight cars, two eX-
press cars, the mail car and baggage
car. These cars acted as buffer for
the passenger coaches attached to the
western-bound express, and though
the passengers were violently thrown
forward, they all escaped uninjured.
The passengers Immediately set to
work TO eXtricate the trainmen from
the debris, and a wrecking train ar
irving few hours later assisted in
work. Those who were killed were
VIM. H. Wiley, of Fairmont, w. Va,
postal clerk; j. a. Casey, of Washing
ton, postal clerk; John Ridenbaugh,
of Berlin, freight brakeman. The in
jured are j. l.. Jetfries, engineer eX-

A Murder in Frederick.

Charles A. Baer, better known as
August Porter. was shot and killed in
Frederick, Md, Tuesday night by
John g. Van Fossen. The trouble is
said to have been caused by a woman
named Julia Lidie, about whom
Porter and Van FOssen have had sew
eral quarrels: Tuesday night Van
Fossen heard that Porter was in the
woman's company and went to her
house in bad temper He kicked in
the doOrto gain an entrance, the noise
of which attracted the attention of
Porter and the woman, who came in
the hall TO find the cause. Just as
Van Fossen crossed the threshold the
woman, it is said, ordered Porter to
put him out, whereupon Porter seized
some article and threw it at Van Eos
sen, striking him on the head. Por-
ter next made a move as if he was
about to draw a pistol, when Van Eos
son drew his revolver and fired three
shots, two of which took effect, one
striking Porter in the head, killing
him instantly. Shortly after the af-
fair Van Fossen surrended himself TO
police
