The increased tariff on tin Will cor
resDondingly affect canned goods. There
will shortly be an increase in the price
of canned fruits. canned meats. canned
fish. canned syrup, canned milk, canned
pickles and everything else that is
canned.
The increase may be only a cent
or so,
But who pays it?
The Workingman.
Always the wOrkingman! 1t is his
household that is the ultimate destiny
of canned edibleS: and, while the quail
| ity of the fruits, meats and syrupS is
the same, he must pay more for them
because the tin monOpolists must be
paid extra profit for the experiments
they are making.
The statement that this increased tar
iff on tin is not paid by the purchaser is
false. 10 clearly show this to be the
case, 1t is only necessary to quote Will

sales for the Horne d DAM Tinware
company, of this city. Dir. Dorr said:
The jobbers to-day are buying tinware at a

months ago. They in turn have raised the
price proportionately to the retailer, and the
latter, In order to make his profit, has ad-

The arrest of Michael O'Kee fe and
John Quill. two West side young men,
last Saturday evening, On charge of
highway robbery, proves to have been
unjust, as indsputable evidence was
secured yesterday of their entire inno-
cence. On the evening in question a
man named Thomas Payn had been
drinking in several saloons on the West
side. and during the evening had met
the two men arrested. After the closing
of the saloons at night, Payn discovered
that he had been robbed, and the blame
was laid at the door of the men in
whose company he had been seen.
Yesterday Sergeant Hanft, of the West
side detail, arrested man named Pat
Shannahan, local crook, and charged
him with completely in the robbery.
The arrest of Shannahan disclosed the
true state of affairs. No sooner had he
been placed in jail than man named
Albert Villaume appeared at the sta
ton and handed over $50 to Capt.
Walsh, stating that Shannahan had
given him the money on the night of
the robbery, requesting him to take
care of it. UKeefe and Quill were in
court Yesterday. and Payn was unable
to identify them withs the men who he
says robbed him. The accused were at
once discharged from custody. Shan
nahan's accomplice has not yet been
captured.

that if Mr.. BaZille presented a petition

Tariff Law.

Every conceivable effort is being made
by the leaders OF the Republican party
TO n0odwlnk the people on this tariff
question. But their sophistries will not
be successful this time. They succeeded
In the past in throwing dust into the
eyes of the laboring classes; but to-day
the Republican party stands charged
and convicted before the people as the
ally of the monopolist. The people
have found them out. The Republican
representatives in congress sold out the
people IN the interests of the money
power. There are few people in st.
Paul who will deny this. Leading Re
publicans like d. 4. Noyes have ad-
mltted that there was too much money
represented dt Washington for the Nc
Kinney tariff law to be altogether salts
factory to them.
just think of it! Republicans having
to confess that money was the sole
means which secured the passage of the
Mckinley bill! What commentary ON
the character and integrity of the Re-
publican congressman! And Minneso-
ia, too, sent i've such men to Washing
ton.
There can be no doubt that the Nc
kinney law was passed more in the in
terests of money than of the whole mass
OF the inhabitants of this country. 1t is
outrageous that this should be possible:
but the people are themselves alone to
blame for it. If they will vote for men
who promise them the earth and betray
them at the first opportunity. what can
they expect? The workingman who
votes for Republican candidate for
congress is traitor to his fellow-work-
ingmen.

There is no tin manufactured in this

A tie-up on the Chicago. st. Paul g.
Kansas City road may occur in very
few days. The employees of the road
have for long time carefully discussed
the question of asking for an increase
of wages, to put them on the same foot
ing as the other lines operating between
st. Paul and Chicago. With this object
in view delegates from Chicago. Kansas
City, Dubuque, Des Moines, st. Joseph
and meny other points have come to st.
Paul, and this week are holding
meetings to discuss the situation.
The men intend to submit two points to
General Manager Egan. The first is
that they be paid for overtime; the
second, that conductors. who now re-
ceive 254 cents a mile, and brakemen
~ cents mile, shall be paid and 2
cents mile respectively, the same
scale being in force Oh all the other
competing roads. A conference has
been held with General Manager Egan,
and on Monday the committees will
again meet that official. The railroad
officials say that the matter will be ami
cabIy settled, and while the men are
courteous in their demeanor, they are
firm in their actions, as they feel they
are asking nothing of the company but
what is just and fair.

Had this increased tariff come out of
the pockets of the well-tO-do, it never
would have been proposed. America is
to-day the largest consumer of tinware
in the world. Whether the country will
continue SO is questionable. Some other
material may probably be introduced to
substitute some of the many articles
now devised from tin. But this in
creased tariff on tin will, for a few
years, have far-reaching and evil eff
feet. 1t will benefit the few to the det-
