FRANKLIN, N. H., September s.-New
Hampshire industries favor the reduction
of the tariff as proposed in the Mills bill.
Many Republicans have been converted TO
Mr.. Cleveland's policy since last winter,
they will undoubtedly vote for him in
November. Mr. Walter Aiken who owns
and operates the largest knitting mill in
the State, has hitherto supported Repub-
licans, but he separates from them on the
tariff issue. Being a practical man and
even an inventor of knitting machinery,
he realizes the vast benefit the Mills bill
proposes for his business. and he declines
10 accept campaign 'gnff" in lieu thereof.
He says that when he is told the Mills bill
will hurt him he regards it rs an insult to
his intelligence and experience.
"Free wool will do whatP Lower the
price of wool here? Not bit Of it. 1t
will only advance the price of wool abroad.
It will make our foreign competitors pay
Just as much for wool as we do. 1t will
open the markets of the world to us, and
we can then buy as cheaply N anybody
and all will have to pay the same price
I remember paying more for wool in $50
aud go than am paying to-day, with the
duty much less.
docs any sensible manufacturer pr'-
tend to say that we cannot manufacture
hosiery with protection Of 40 per cent
wqen all parties pay the same price for
raw material? Let us see about this
make goods worth 81, 81 and 81 per dozen,
no matter what they weigh or how much
the wool coats, 40 long ns the cost is the
same TO all. Now, my protection ia 30
cent, 81 20 and 81 90 per dozen on these
goods under the Mills bill. 1t does not
cost over 60 cents per dozen to make them.
/ have an advantage Of 20 cents, 90 cents
and 81 per dozen over the foreign manu-
facturer, provided IL costs him nothing to
make his goods. Provided II costs him
one-half as much to make his goods AZ II
does us, which is a. low as any body claims
he can make them, then my advantage
over him is so cents, 80 cents and 81 30

The Story of Great Storm French Fish

The Story of Great storm-FrenCh Fish
ermen Lost.
GLOUCESTER, MASS, September s.
Captain Ryan, of the schooner A. D.
Story, which arrived from Iceland, last
night reports great destruction among the
French fishing feet during April on the
the South coast of Iceland. As this is the
cod fishing ground for the French the
whole French fleet were concentrated in
this locality when a-terrible storm came
up, witch engulfed six vessels and their
crews. One other vessel lost her captain
and three men. As near as could be as
certained the number lost was 1877.
Many of the vessels were so badly
damaged that they had to be abandoned.
Three hundred men were left in desti-
tute condition in Iceland until q steamer
carried them away. They endured many
hardships while there, the supply of food
being limited. The American vessels
have done fairly and suffered no serious
mishaps.

pOtism is impossible in this land, for that
party will not endure il
''Now, my friends, passing from these
general observations, allow me to come to
some of the issues that are most sharply
marked in this campaign, for / have no
doubt you want to hear about that. And
first of all, because il is most discussed and
attracts public attention ths most, let me
say something to you upon the
tariff question, so-called. Our oppo-
nents are endeavoring to alarm
the whole country by the cry Of free trade.
They are saying that the Mills bill as is
called the tariff bill introduced by Mr..
Mills, and which has passed the House OF
Representatives is but free trade meas
ure. Why, my friends, they must have q
poor opinion of the intelligence Of the
American people, who take in that
manner. Why, what is free trade? Free
trade is the unrestricted intercourse be-
tween nations in which there are no Gus
tom house, no duties and no taxes paid on
the goods imported for sale. This is free
trade. You have an illustration of free
trade in the United States.
WHAT IS FREE TRADE?
There are thirty odd States in the Union
-thirty-eight, is it not, Mr.. Mcpherson ?
Yes, thirty-eight There is thirty-eight
States in the Union. Between these States
there is free trade. When goods are taken
from New Jersey, from this great manu-
featuring and fiourishing city Of Newark
into New York, you pay no duties, and
the New Workers pay no duties on
them. If you take them to Maine
to California, il is exactly
the same thing. Between these thirty
eight States and between them and the
Territories that belong to the United
States there ia free trade, but there is no
such thing a. free trade between the
United States and foreign countries, and
nobody in this country advocates
such free trade. Great applause.
81 say that between the United States
and foreign countries there is no such free
trade. Applause. There is no free trade
properly 80 called, except that free trade
to which have alluded and which exists
between the different parts of the United
States. That is the only example of free
trade we have here. When man talks about
THE MILLS BILL
as free trade bill either he talks without
wisdom or he talks with intent to deceive,
the one or the other. Either he is an ig-
noramus or he is 3 rascal, the one or the
other.
Judge Thurman then entered into an
exhaustive discussion of the tcriff ques-
tion, showing that the Mills bill was not
a free trade measure and would affect the
industries of the country benefcially.

SECOND GAME.

1t was at least 4:30 o'clock before the
second game got started, and only five in
nings were played Phalen was put in the
box for the visitors and the home team got
onto his delivery in the second and kept
up the pounding for three innings, bring.
ing in eight earned runs. The Jacksons
could not hit Frank Knauss with any effect
and the only run they got was unearned.
In the first of the fifth they began to SOL
dier, as they had to catch train, and they
believed that if they did not play ont the
five innings the game would not
be given to Wheeling. Phalen did
not want the record of such pounding
to 20 against him and he made every at
tempt 10 let the batter hit the ball, so
that the game would be delayed until
train time when they would refuse to 20
in and play out the half inning
But Yak succeeded in striking ont aud
Nicholson did the same. Phalen then
threw balls as high a. the grand stand
and West was sent to his base on balls.
He walked around the bases but the Jack
son players threw the ball all over the
field. Then West walked In from second
to the players bench and was called ont
for running out of line. or course the
boys disliked to do this but the Jscksons
had started it and they only gave them q
dose of their own medicine. The score Is
az follows:

New YORK, September S.-Cotton
weavers of Liverpool, England, are on q
strike for higher wages, and yesterday,
when the steamer Germania arrived here,
it was discovered that among her steerage
passengers were a number Of strikers.
Superintendent Simpson, at Castle Garden,
set about investigating the matter. and
succeeded in Identifying eleven OF them,
whom he detained. They say that the
union gave each OF them $50 on condition
that they would leave the country, and
they decided to come over here, because
friends who were already in this country
had found profitable work in the mills
near Boston. They said that there were
twenty-five Of them altogether, but de-
clared that they were under no contract.
They all have little money, and it's q
question whether the collector can refuse
to let them land.

CANTON, O., September s.--A political
sensation was created here to-day
through the announcement by DR.. A.
J. Douds, QUE of Canton's leading citizens
and lifelong Republican, that he had
decided to abandon the Republican party
and high protection and vote for Cleveland
and Thurman, whom he says he considers
far superior to Harrison and Morton. DR..
Douds is man of high standing here, and
q prominent member of the First NJ. E.
Church He considers after several years
study of the subject, that high protec-
tive tariff is wrong and detrimental to the
best interests Of the country, and that
Cleveland's record as President is one to
be proud of. The Doctors action in re-
pudiating the principles has fallen like o
bomb in the Republican camp here.

CHICAGO, September 6.-Dr. John G..
Ames, of Palstka, Fla, who is in the city,
expresses the gravest views concerning the
yellow fever situation at Jacksonville, and
believes the most stringent means of quar-
antine should be enforced.
He thinks the epidemic at Jacksonville
will continue TO spread through the city
until the November frosts nip it. The con-
dition OF temperature and atmosphere, be-
sides the general state of health, are favor.
able for the epidemic.
Dr.. Ames thinks Surgeon General Ham.
ilton deserves the highest praise for the
way in which he has handled the fever in
rected districts. But little choice is af-
forded to the afflicted citizens. They must
90 where they will be received, and they
don't like it. He believes there is no
danger whatever of the plague in any parts
of Florida except Tampa and Jacksonville,
because the condition necessary for the
spread Of the fever is absent.
