THE fierce iron war that e. w. Clark,
president Of the Thomas Iron Company
has begun, shows two things. viz; That
the iron mills OF Pennsylvania did not
need the protective tariff and that they
are just as much opposed to allowing the
people to buy cheaper iron from the
South as from England. Ii is said that
he intends to make this a fight to the
death. The producers Of pig iron in the
South must retire from the market and
allow Pennsylvania to rule or ruin.
Meantime the men who have in
vested in mills at the South
which can produce pig iron at less than
IS per ton are not ia a state Of great
anxiety. They can hold the market
against England Pennsylvania and all
comers That is what they propose to do
and they do not ask the government to
make tax laws to assist them to do it.

PREsI DENT HARRISON has done we
in the Civil Service Commission appoint
ments The high character Of ex Gov
ernor Thompson Of South Carolina, to-
gether with the fact that he had been
selected by OK President Cleveland, makes
his appointment particularly grateful to
Democrats and TO all honest and patriotic
men everywhere Mr.. Roosevelt, the
other appointee, is a Republican
politician OF the better class in
New York He cut a ridiculous figure in
the campaign Of 1884 by first joining the
Curtis crowd Of mugwumps and after
wards Topping over to the support Of
Blaine. He has repented OF that folly
and is now thoroughly in unison with
the best element OF the Republican party.
He is young, honest, able and full OF
energetic ardor He will discharge the
duties Of the office fairly and
efficiently. Ex-Governor Thompson
is man Of unquestioned ability integ-
rity and fitness. His nomination was
not confirmed by the partisan Senate
upon the nomination Of ex President
Cleveland Nothing could be urged
against his character or his ability 70
discharge the duties of the Office. That
made no difference to the Senate. II will
be interesting to observe the action Of
the Senators on the same nomination by
President Harrison. They will either
have to reject or accept the nomination.
Either action will place them in an awk
ward position.

NOTWITHSTANDING the steady decline
in the price Of pig-iron and the decline in
wages, the price Of beams, girders and
other forms OF structural iron has not been
reduced Intrenched behind duty OF
$2S per ton the combinations of manu-
facturers have control OF the home mar
ket, and they need not make any
reduction whatever unless they
quarrel among themselves. Builders
who are forced to use structural
iron must buy from these monopolists
and the people must pay any price that
they demand. Mr. Andrew Carnegie re-
Gently boasted in a public address that he
employed more men than the whole force
Of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
The operation in which Mr. Carnegie EN-.
ploys the largest number OF men is in
the manufacture Of structional iron, and
for this iron he obtains higher prices and
much greater profits than for the moro
costly steel rails produced at his mills.
If the duty on structural iron
were reduced onehalf there
would not be any change in
wages, the mills would still have theil
home market and the cons 'mers would
have the benefit OF the reduced price
The people would keep in their pocket:

SALVATION BY CHRIST.

Oh. no man who has ever held the Cross,
and found in it the refuge that he sought,
can ever preach it down. If you are not
sinner you can do without the Gro s. But,

A Natural Inebriate Asylum.

Cured of intemperance in three days!
How many people know that the State
of Georgia owns natural inebrlate asy-
lum?
And, nevertheless, such is the fact.
sIt is the most wonderful spring in
the United States" said Special Officer
Broderick, of the Atlanta police force.
"To what spring do you refer"
"Indian Spring. 1 have taken three
men to that spring who were so far gone
on the liquor habit that it looked as if it
was impossible for them to quit, and
every one of them were cured immedi-
ately. One of them had been practically
drunk for four months. I took along a
supply of whisky, as people said that it
would kill HIM to quit off too suddenly"
"Did he taper OFF,"
"He took one drink after he got to
Indian Spring, and after that he declined
to touch drop. He said he did not
want it at all. He remained there three
days and you never saw such transfor-
nation. He was as sober as judge, his
face was cleared of its bloat and the red
LIQUOR look, and he was himself again.
Since that time he has been at work
steadily and has not touched a drop.
That was six months ago, long enough
to efectually settle the matter"
"Does it prove equally eficacious on
others2"
81 have tried three cases, and with the
same happy results in every case. be-
lieve that that little spring, which does
not hold over gallon of water, is one of
the most valuable in the country, and
worth all the hospitals in the land for
the cure of inebriates."
"Why don't somebody ship the water2"
"In the first place, the spring belongs
to the State of Georgia, and is just as the
Indians left it, long ago. The State
Government has never permitted anybody
to lease it, or to attempt to enlarge the
flow. The water is free for everybody.
In the second place, there is volatile
gas in the water that escapes after few
hours, rendering it fiat, and robbing
the water of its extraordinary qualities.
For these reasons no attempt has ever
been made to export it, and people are
compelled to 60 to the spot to enjoy its
benefits. 1t is a wonderful spring in
many other respects, but it is the king
of all liquor habit cures that I have ever
seen. ."-Atlanta Constitution.

The Wonderful Flying Squirrel.

Among the small animals which are
quite a rare sight to city folks, and even
dwellers in the towns, is the cunning lit
tie flying squirrel. This is really won
derful creature, and seems to be a sort Of
compromise between bird and an ami
NAL. It is about five inches long as to
its body, which is black and gray and
white beneath, and carries bushy tail
quite five inches in length, having pc
culiar construction which assists it in its
flight from tree to tree, but the main ap-
paratus used in flying, or in reality leap
ing, is a loose membrane connected to
the front and hind legs on each side,
which the squirrel has the power to ex-
pand at will, thus increasing the surface
presented against the air. When they
desire to go from one tree to another
they first ascend to the topmost branch,
and boldly leap off into space. Then it
is that their kite-like appendages make
themselves useful. They spread out and
the little animal, guiding itself by the
tail, takes a downward, circular fight
toward another tree. When it arrives
within six or eight feet of its intended
landing place it changes its position so as
to light upon its feet against the tree,
when the membranes become greatly re-
duced and are not at oil in the way.
They live in decayed' trees, where. If
not disturbed, they become quite numer-
Gus. They are difficult to catch, and
bite viciously when captured, but they
are easily domesticated and make admir-
able pets, and soon become an unfailing
source of amusement to the children.
They live upon nuts, acorns, insects, and
are said to eat small birds.
Every evening a family Of three or four
of these interesting surviving denizens of
our suburban woods, who make their
home in giant oak, sail across the
street, one after the other, to tree at
the residence of the writer, where they
scamper about the limbs searching for
their favorite food. 1t seems from their
actions that they are nocturnal in their
habits and pass the day snugly curled up
in their home in the old oak, which prob
ably accounts for their survival long af-
ter the dainty gray and fox squirrels
have disappeared.-st.Lo Louis Globe Demo-
crdt.

A CURE FOR ALCOHOLISM. !

One who has had much e1perie hce in re-
formatory institutions for drum kards hal
lately given his testimony as to the curabil
coholism is not disease, and that it is posi-
Bile for every man, no matter how long hs
has been drunkard, to recover from the
habit Reformation requires q cultivation
of the moral sense, q strengthening Of the
will, cutting off of all evil associations and
all bad habits, and total abstinence from the
use of liquor. 1t will never do for drunk
ard who is trying to reform to stop short cs
absolute denial Of alcohol; it is simply de-
lusion for one like him to think he can limit
himself to moderation. 1t is the opinion Of
the expert i'll question that the most marked
results of inebriety are not physical but
mental and moral They do not produce dis
case to. the extent ges::cc..:lly believed.
