now going the rounds of the press, says
the New York World. 1t started where
the billiards come from. away up in the
Northwest, and the bar then was valued
at S5S,O00-quite comfortable pile to be
melted down into solid chunk. by
the time it got to the United States as
say Office at Helena, Mont, it had grown
to the value of S101.385, and weighed
1000 ounces. OF course, this was not
pure gold, or it wouldn't have weighed
more than pbout 400 ounces. 1t
was then IS inches long, 10 inches
deep, eight inches across the top and
six inches across the bottom; weight in
pounds, $50. The latest news concern
ing the bar is that it has been remelted
into another and larger bar by "Col.
Broadwater, of Helena" and now forms
part of the biggest gold bar i'll the
world, valued at Sl,0OO,000. Being ten
times greater in value than the second
bar, it must weigh 10000 ounces, or
$500 pounds six tons. If that
bar is to be sent to the Philadelphia
mint for coinage it will not require any
insurance. 1t will be burglar-proof in
itself. The boldest of train robbers
couldn't handle it. There might be

The Gallipolis Bulletin gives the
following: 1.-TWO hundred girls in an
underwear factory in WiIkesbarre,
Pa, struck last Thursday because
the firm wished to charge them so
cents per day for the use of sewing
machines, instead of % cents. This
was an exorbitant tax on the poor
girls and they can not be blamed
for their action. Fifty cents per
day equals over $3.50 per year for
the use of a machine. Two hundred
machines at $3.50 rent per year
makes $4,000 per annum. Quite a
respectable credit on the Profit and
Loss account. The girls are not al
lowed to own a machine but must
rent from their employers. This is
a crust on small scale. but

not be meddled with. Hurrah for

Tho sail Trust DeferresI.

The failure of the salt trust TO
materialize was not due TO an indis-
position ON the part of New York
capitalists TO go into it it they could
see their way to making it pay. IL
was practicable and would have been
very profitable for awhile Bnthow
long2 There was the rub Nobody
could tell whether the next Congress
would not try to win popularity by
abolishing the tariff tax that keeps
up the price of salt in this country.
When, too, If the trust should put
salt up much higher than it now is
it would be met with an immense
production from the various rich de-
posts in various parts of this coun-
try. IL was not enough to buy up
existing works. 1t was necessary
to get possession also of all the best
deposits. That would take time
and Il good deal OF money. There
will be better chance after Con-
gress has reduced internal taxes
and the tariff on sugar to such a
point that freedom from further
tariff reductions seems assured.
Then we shall probably hear of the
salt trust again. Some of our con-
temporaries talk as If the growing
unpopularity of trusts scared the
projectors of the salt trust. Not at
all. Trust-makers do not care for
unpopularity in their corporate ca
pacity. 1t was the uncertainty of
the present outlook that warned
them to desist for Balti-
more Sun.

Oh, Protection, Thou Art n
Jewel!

From sources deemed reliable it
is learned that in the year 1888
there were imported to the United
States two and one-half billion
pounds of sugar. This sugar was
taxed at the custom house 70 per
cent of it's value. =
The amount collected from this
tax on sugar is quoted at s5O,647, :
Ola, or nearly 81 for every man wo-
man and child in the United States.
For family of five the tax would
be So. Then it is said that by rea-
son of the tariff the trusts are ena-
bled to still further increase the
price. But without stopping to com
tend about how much the trusts col
lects or how far the tariff is response
bic for the existence of the trusts let
tho good people note the amount
that they are paying for tariff taxes
alone, and on sugar alone. 1t is
true it is only about So to tho family
on sugar but that is only one item
that he pays on. The items would
make list too long to publish.
On some the amount is more and
on many it is less. The grand total
is about 80 per cent, of all we buy.
This was not disputed by the repub-
lican orators in the last campaign.
But they did say that the tariff was
compensated for by a corresponding
increase of wages for the working
man and increase of prices for the
farmer. On that issue Mr.. Har-
rison was elected President so these
promises of higher wages and higher
prices for farm products the repub-
lican party rode into power in 1888.
Now, when the excitemento of the po-
IiticaI contest is long past we appeal
to the farmer to know whether their
dreams of high protection and good
times have been realized.
Are not the prices of cattle and
sheep and other products on the
farm lower under this administra-
ton of high protection than they
were under the so-callcd free trade
policy of honest Grover Cleveland?
The Ne,0 Dominion noted previ-
ously in connection with an inter
view with prominent cattle-dealer
that cattle are about 20 per cent.
cheaper than they were under Cleve-
lands administration.
Each days dispatches bring re-
ports of cuts in the wages of the
wage-earner. There are strikes
among the laboring men and uneasi-
ness in business generally. And
this is under the simon pure high
protection policy of your Uncle Ben
Harrison.

The manufacturing interests of
New England are languishing and
u strong movement has been started
there in favor of tariff reform. Pc
titions to Congress are being extern
sively circulated and signed by
manufacturersan and workmen. They
ask for free raw material and say
that is necessary to have it to revive
their dropping industries Coal,
iron-ore, wool and many other arti-
cles they say should be free, and the
duty on pig-iron and crude manu-
features should be reduced. The
duty on pig-iron is equivalent to
$500 per cent. ad valorem and the
Mills bill which it was charged was
a free-trade measure-reduced it to
$3.50, but now the New England
manufacturers (most of them Re
publicans) say that 24 per cent. adj
vaIorem is enough of tariff on iron.

IF the current reports arc to be
credited, the Republican family in
this State, is far from happy. Golf
and his friends look with distrust
upon the growing fondness of this
Administrator for EIkins as a
possible candidate for the U. S.
Senate. They claim that Elkins is
an intruder, who has done nothing
to entitle him to any voice in State
politics; yet he has been allowed to
upset all of COTS plans for distri-
buting the patronage. And while
Goff, all alone, carries on his con-
test and foots tho bills, and, more
over, goes out to the new States to
preach the true doctrine to them,
EIkins takes his ease at Deer Park,
entertains Harrison, and lays his
wires to supplant Gof, as the great
and only West Virginia Republican.
