THE Associated Press dispatches of
yesterday report an interview with q
prominent English tin plate manufac-
turer now looking up a plant in Pitts
burg, Pa, to the effect that Sl7 100000
have been placed in the Washington
lobby to defeat the tariff on tin plate.
This manufactures says that if the
senate bill passes, the tin plate manu-
facture in England will be wound up.
This may be bald-headed lie, or it
may be an exaggeration. or it may
have the elements of solid truth. In
any event, the question is admissible
-ifit is worth Sl7.OOO,OOO to defeat tin
plate duty in the United States SEN
ate, how much is the tin plate indus
try under national protection worth
to this country? Also-if SIT 200, 900
have been placed in the senate lobby
to defeat this one item, how much
English money was expended in the
late election to return Cleveland and
endorse his free trade policy?

THE New York Sun would make
grand splurge over Harrison's inaugu-
raj, inasmuch as it is the centenary
of that of Washington. To this sug-
gestion of the Sun, the Day refers as
follows:
"The New York Sun says that as
President Harrison's Inauguration
will be the centenary Of that Of Wash
ington, there ought to be present on
that occasion a group of veterans,
composed of men still living who had
seen the father of his country in the
flesh when they were children, and
believes that many such could be
found in the United States. If the Sun
fails to find these veterans, it might
send down south for a few hundred
danes who used to 'nuss' the great
and good G. w. when he was a
baby"
The good old days loom up again
under republican return to power
There is something eminently proper
and fitting in the celebration of the
centenary of Washington's inaugu
raj by the Inauguration of a republi
can president, the chosen chief of the
party which represents the pure
Amerlcanism of the fathers, anC
stands most distinctively for thos,
principles and policies of government
they so successfully established. Tn,
old coIored nurses are not needed
The republican party is nursing tn

Probably no one thing has caused such a
general revival OF trade at Dreiss, Thompson

their customers of 50 many free bottles of DR..

Their trade is simply enormous in his very
valuable article from the fact that it always

Following Up His Prayer.
From the Leaviston Journal

Elder John Stephens held pastorate in the
Free Baptist church at Gardiner forty odd
years ago. Nature hsd dealt generously with
Elder John. His big heart was cast in an iron
frame of mammoth proportions, aud when he
lifted up his voice in prayer or praise, listeners
were sometimes at a loss to tell which was TIE
stronger, his zeal or his lungs. Remarkable
alike for sincere piety and genuine humor the
good man so tempered his teachings as to make
them equally acceptable to saint or sinner.
Riding one day along the road to West Gardi-
ner, he overlook an OK team that was stuck in
the mud. The discouraged cattle had refused
to pull, and the driver, who had sworn till the
air was blue and smelled of birthstone, was
preparing to reel off another string of oaths
when the parson stopped his horse and said:
TRY prayer, my friend. Try prayer"
Try it yourself retorted the vexed team
ster.
I'm do it, said Elder John, and without
further ceremony he dropped on his knees in
the wagon.
For awhile he prayed around his subject as if
afraid to touch it. Gradually, however, his
faith strengthened, and in a voice which babe
fair to arouse the neighborhOod, he besought
the owner of the cattle on a thousand hills to
move the hearts and legs of those stubborn
oxen. The prayer was Internationally long,
and no sooner had it ended than the impatient
driver prepared to start his team.
Stop" said Elder John, descending from
his wagon. LAS l have done the praying,
feel that had ought to do the driving You
hold my horse and give me the goad-Stick.''
Inc man COnSeute1 TO the arrangement, and
with grin waited to see the parson worsted.
At that moment another OK team was seen
approaching from another direction.
"Halloo, neighbour the practical parson
shouted to thenew-comer. Lend me your cat
tie for a moment"
Hold onY' cried the owner of the mired cart,
That's not fair. If you can handle this team
better by praying than ] can by swearing
want to see you do it; but no doubling up, mind
you no doubling up
Elder Johns robust figure was drawn to its
fullest hight and his voice was like the roar of
the ocean, as he answered:
MY friend, the Master serve is abundantly
able to move this load with single yoke OF
oxen-or without any oxen at all; but when, In
direct answer to prayer, he sends me an extra
pair of cattle, I'm going to hook EN- oni''
No further objection was raised and with the
aid of re-enforceinents the loaded cart was
easily drawn out of the mud.

Senator Allison seems to be man who
believes in following instructions from his
constituents, and during the recent cam
paign in Iowa, he said ''The issues this
year are the same as those of last year. If
there were good reasons why the Republican
party should succeed last year the same
reasons hold good this year. Our opponents
say in their platform and on the stump that
the protective tariff is wrong. The vote in
Iowa will be taken as an instruction to its
representatives in congress-" Now, what is
Mr.. Allison going to do about it? He
framed and defended the Senate tariff bill,
a bill which would help the monopolists at
the expense of the people; he told his con-
stituents substantially that unless they
elected the republican ticket in Iowa by as
great a majority as Harrison received last
fall, their action would be taken as decla-
ration that they wanted tariff reform. Not
only was the republican majority of 1888
not maintained, but democratic governor
was elected, and the legislature which will
elect Mr.. Allison's successor came very near
being democratic. Mr.. Allison has his in
structions. What is he going to doa

No Change in Her Weight.
From the Sd. Paul Pioneer- Press.

Naturally, when lady puts nickel in the
slot and steps on the scales, she is anxious to
ascertain her live weight as near as may be.
A few days ago the Listener was standing in a
hotel corridor where there is one of the nickel
devices, when party of ladies came in. They
were out making some purchases and were
loaded down with bundles of various sizes,
shapes and descriptions. They thought it would
be great fun TO have weighing bee then and
there, and began to fish deep down into their
pockets for scent pieces One of them, the
first to get upon the scales, had a pound pack
age of saleratus In her hand. ''Why, Laura -
exclaimed one of the others, you'll weigh a
pound more than you actually do; you've got
that saleratus in your hand" "Oh, la, how
stupid of me" exclaimed the woman on the
scales. And she slipped the saleratus into her
pocket. A puzzled look came into her face, and
in an injured tone she said: Il don't see that it
makes bit of difference; the old scales are not
good for anything; / weigh Just the same as |
did before" The other ladies' laughed and said
nothing. and it was fully five minutes before
Laura realized that pound in the pocket is as
good as pound in the hand.
