Senator Voorhees, advanced as
point against the tin-plate tariff, in his
anti-tar.f harangue, that the increase
was proposed 10 protect an infant IN
dustry yet unborn aud give employment
10 1900 workingmen now IDLE. One
would suppose that the giving of en-
ployment 70 so many idle workingmen
would be q point in its favor, bat the
"tall sycamore of the Wabash" said
that 1t would be far cheaper for the
country to pay the $4,000 IDLE men
average wages than TO tax every square
OF tin, every dinner pail, teapot and
milk can.
Many a wise statesman would not
agree with Senator Voorhees, on his
proposition. Those $4,000 men would
have to be taken care of IN one Of three
ways: In the pOOrhOuses, IN salaried
ldleness or IN productive labor. The
second one Is Senator Voorhees, plan,
and the latter Mr.. McKinley's. 1t
takes but a single comparative glance
-
ter way Of caring for the men.
But this Is not the end OF the matter.
Besides supporting those 24.0O0 men
here, we would also be supporting
about $4,000 more persons employed IN
England and Wales in the manufacture
Of uu-plates for American cOnsump-
ton. We send annually about $40 ,0O0,
600 70 England for TINS one commodity
and many wise statesmen-Senator
Voorhees, not among the number
think it would be good policy to keep
that amount Of money at home.
As 70 the infant yet unborn, thereby
hangs tale. Senator voorhees, would
have spoken more truly If be had called
it an infant strangled at It's birth.
British Manufacturers had possessed a
monopoly Of the manufacture since
1920, and had never supplied cheap tin
plates TO this country. In 1873 the best
quality If tn-2Iates commanded
SlA75 per box. In 1875 a speci-
tic duty of II cents per pound
VAS levied. At once certain
Wolshmen. who bad understood the
business az home. undertook the inaug-
uratou Of toe t.n-piste industry at
Wellsvllie IN ONO and at Leachburg
and I1emier IN Pennsylvania. Did
these Welshmen add the tariff TO the
cost. as Cleveland says By no means;
in 1s7s the prics Of the best tiu-plstes
had dropped from slA75 70 S6.25 per
box As soon as British manufacture
ers felt the competition. down went
their prices. and IL - a remarkable fact
that their prices never do drop until
they meet with competition right here.
Eat the astute Brtons did not drop
their prices for competition only. bu;
fer coid-b.ooded murder By the aid
of cheap labor and the low tariff, they
ssrangled the American infsut, AMI
then put up their prices again-
In further snsver 70 senator N0or-
hees Ist us say that the Mckinley bill
does not iatsnt % levy any tax upon
toe araclas he mentions. The el0nga-
ted statesman can n0t be allowed %

Good Place for Tigers.

A tiger measuring fourteen feet from
the end of his tail to the tip of his nose
was shot during a recent night by a
Chnaman at Passir Panjang, about two
miles in the jungle off Whampoa's estate,
near Singapore, India. The beast was
brought INTO town to the Central station.
This tiger is a splendid animal, and it is
stated that his claws have been cut off to
be presented to Sir Frederick Dickson.
The neighborhood Of the reservoir near
Singapore is much frequcntcd by tigers,
and the Free Press cynicaly obs rves ]:
"This place is at present to be recon-
mended to moonlight picnic parties as
the place to spend, if not happy, at
least an eyentful evening, particularly to
those who think that the dim beauties of
nature are to be best appreciated in a
solitude deux. Two is company, but
three is none, especially when the third
is a well grown tiger whose internal
emotions plainly tell him that it is dinner
time"

Doomed Island.

The island of Heligoland, which the
British Government has bartdred away to
purchase the recognition of its territorial
claims in Western Africa, may be thing
of beauty to the eye of rock admiring
travellers and German strategists, but can
hardly be hoped to prove JOY forever.
A couple OF centuries ago the Unterland
or coast plain below the rock, comprised
twenty-five square miles, and there are
historical records in support Of the ira
dition that A. d. $50 the island contained
three cities and several dozen villages,
with an aggregate population of 100, 600
Its present population has dwindled to
less than 5000, and the remaining por-
lions of the old table-land crumble away
at rate that makes it safe to predict
that with another century the German
Gibraltar" will have shrunk to small
reef with scant fringe of sand bars.

The Cabbage Tree.

One of the most peculiar and most val
liable trees in Florida is the cabbage tree.
"The tree, in fact, belongs to the pal
metto family. 1t grows to height vary
ing from twenty to forty feet, and there
is scarcely an inch difference in the diam
etcr from the roots up to tie leaves The
leaves, or bayonets, all grow in a cluster
at the top. The wood is very porous and
extremely light; it resembles cork. Its
value lies in the fact that it is utterly
impervious to the ravages of salt water
and barnaclcs. whN.s ~. X. tt4stfc} ali
other natural woods. Hence the cabbage
tree is much sought after for posts and
piles for building bridges and wharves
in salt water. Pine piles that are used
in building through salt water have to be
creosoted in order to preserve them any
length of time, and the process is very
expensive one, but the cabbage wood
needs no application of any sort. - New
York Telegram.

CHICAGO, May 3.-The Journal says the
Northern Pacific has completed the pur-
chase of the Chicago and Great Western
railroad and Calumet Terminal company.
The Chicago and Great Western is simply
n terminal company with lines inside the
city limits and valuable terminal facilities
in the business center. Over this COM
pany's tracks the Wisconsin Central Sc
cured entrance To the city. and the North
ern Pacific will come ia over the Wiscon-
sin Central line. The Calumet Terminal
company has docks on the lake shore at
Calumet. just south Of this city, and a
belt line connecting them with the Great
Western tracks. The Northern Pacific
will, IL Is said. issue a new series Of bonds
to the amount of SD.OOO.OOO on these prop
critics. The indications point strongly 10
n close alliance between this system and
the Baltimore 4 Ohio. thus realizing
Henry villaTd's dream Of IA great route
from ocean To ocean.
Ii is stated that the general Offices of
the Northern Pacific will bc removed 10
Chicago as soon az the depot on Fifth
avenue is finished.
