The present duty on tin plate is one
cent a pound. American manufacturer
and workingmGn have asked to have II
increased to q cents. Mr.. Randall pro-
posed q cents. The Mills bill put tin
plate on the free list, although sheet
iron, which Is coated with not more and
generally less than five per cent Of tin
to make tin plate, was to pay a duty Of
one cent per pound. The Senate bill
places the duty at . cents,
At the rate proposed by the Senate,
and which it is thought the new House
will accept, a new Industry wouldspring
into life, giving employment to at least
10000 men. Already a company with
$l,OOO,0OO capital has been organized 10
establish works in Pittsburgh. The tin
will be brought from North Dakota,
where there are large deposits. To reach
these deposits it is necessary to build
about twelve miles Of railroad, which
again represents home labor employed
by reason Of a new industry.
No business man would do in his own
business what tho people OF this coun.
try, by act Of Congress, have forced
themselves to do in tho matter OF tin.
plate-a folly almost great enough to
brand the American people as a horde Of
idiots.

SANKEY'S account of his journey into
the heart Of Africa Ia 50 thrillingIy sug'
gestive US to cause us to wish that the
tellingof the story had fallen to ono who
WIS not the leader Of the hazardous ex.
petition.
The details of the attacks by natives,
the pursuits, the retreats, the dismal
march on short rations through the
dense and almost interminable forest,
would have been given by another pen
than Staple 3 with much more OF the
heroic which belongs to it all.
As we read SANKEY'S simple story of u
great achievement VIC naturally wonder
what all this is to lead to, and whether
it is not in fact, what every human heart
must hope it is, the shedding Of the
first rays Of civilization into that dark
quarter Of the world.

At dinner, not long ago, Wilke
Collins related instances proving how
impossible it was to introduce into
a novel descriptions of places and
things wholly imaginary. In one of
his works he described house which
he had never seen and which was en-
tirely the offspring Of his magma
ton. A few days after the publica-
ton, a man called upon him to protest
against the introduction of his house
into his novel. Strange to say, the
pages of the novel contained perfect
description of the mans property.

John Bush, who, up to the time Of
his death, was probably the Oldest white
settler in Minnesota, died at ST.. Peter
last Wednesday morning. He was one
of the historical characters of the state
from the mere fact of his long residence.
His exact age is not known, as he was
found when but a child in,the woods of
Virginia during al outbreak, but he
must have been nigh onto centenarian
in years. He came to this state in 1885,
settling on the present site of St. Paul,
and living here continually ever since.
About the middle of the century be To-
Gated in Lafayette and became proprie-
tor of the Lone Cottonwood Inn, resid-
ing also at short intervals in New Ulm,
where he was well known. During the
Indian Outbreak he fled to St. Peter
Tor refuge and made that his home for
the past quarter centuary.
The republicans of Virginia appear
to have put up Billy Mahone merely for
the sake of knocking him down and
out, At any rate that was the result,
and for two more years at least the Old
Dominion will have to experience the
Bourbon rule. Whether his de.
feat is to be regretted or not, is
hardly a fair question. Malone
is not an Appollo Belvidere repub-
lican by any means, and, although it
would have tickled the party hugely
to break up that old Bourbon strong
hold and hornets nest, it is not worth
while to be sorry because Malone
couldn't do it. The task will be left to
time and better man. Rid of Riddle
berger and Malone. Republican Virgin
ia, thank the Lord, is not far distant

The Sleepy Eye Herald was surprised
last week to see an editorial in a Min
neapolis evening paper championing
the idea of prayers for rain The even
ing paper referred to is Republican
paper of coarse, for Republican editors
believe in going to headquarters with
their petitions. A Democrat like the
Herald editor never thinks of going
back further than jackson or Jefferson,
hence its surprise. Had the Minneapo-
lis paper championed a pilgrimage to
the tomb of Jefferson, it would have re-
ceived a strong endorsement from the
Herald.-St James Journal.
