it to yourselves, to the friends of your sleeping

Getting Their Eyes open

The fact that the very disasters
which the tariff shriekers predicted as
certain to follow Cieveland's re elec
ion are coming thick and fast, although
Harrison is in the White House, is
opening the eyes of thousands of peo-
pie to the fact that the present protect
tive tariff is, for the most part, a
humbug and q swindle. Wade's Fiber
and Fabric, an able trade journal,
which supported Harrison vigorously
on the tariff issue, no doubt voices the
curiosity of great multitude of de
1uded victims of monopoly sophistry,
when it wants to know :. where are
the good times that Harrison's elec
tion was to bring.
It SAYS: 1--WE were led to believe
that if the party of high protection
secured control Of the government,
we would then, very soon, have good
times. We are firm believer in pro
tecting American industries, if it could
be done under the guidance of honest
statesmen, but in the hands of quack
politicians, terrible work is made of
protection" 1t is indignant at the
folly of the manufactures and the
growers of wool in combining to con-
Luue the tariff on wool, when any

Ahe faris g. Browna Wreck and Sunk I'm

OF the Crew Drowned.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 6-The sinking Of
inc Cincinnati steamer Paris c. Brown at
hermitage, near Bayou Sara, and 100
miles above New Orleans, makes the
ninth river disaster that has occurred on
the Mississippi near this city in the last
three weeks. About ten minutes after
nine O'Clock last night, when the Brown
was near Hermitage, she was sighted by
Inc steamer Oliver Beirne, then landed
mere, to make landing. The Brown
waited In the middle of the stream
Tor the Beirne to back out. and
when the latter did so the Brown attempted
to make landing, but in doing so struck
a snag or log which projected foot from
the river, Her hog chains gave way and
the boat broke in two, the cabin falling in
amidships, and the entire boat becoming
complete wreck in two or three minutes.
ihe shock alarmed every one on the boat
and created some panic among the pas
sengeis The captain and crew did all
IN their power, but they could do
nothing to save the steamer, and devoted
themselves to using their axes and cutting
loose the boats on the deck. This took
some time TO do, and in the meanwhile the
Brown was sinking deeper and deeper
into the water. Fortunately William
Glass, of Hermitage, heard the crushing
noise made as the snag went through the
steamer sprang into his skir lying at tho
river bank and went to the assistance of
the sinking vessel. She was surrounded
by hogsheads, boxes and other pieces Of
her freight and wreckage, but he
got near enough to take off the lady pas
sengers, chambermaids and others. Re-
turning, he made several trips to the boat
| and thus took off the greater portion of the
! crew. The Brown was within few yards
of the shore at the time of the accident
therwise the loss Of life would have been
much greater The crew got to shore by
means Of floating hogsheads, lumber etc.
A cabin passenger from Nicksburg named
Miller, was drowned, together with seven
| of the crew.
