generously Appreciated.

IL Is manifest that the appreciation OF
the efforts Of the Rock Island fire des art.
ment to promote efficiency in itself as IA,
as is possible for a volunteer system, Is
not confined to Rock Island alone. The
Rock Island route having learned OF the
reorganization of the department and the
expense involved in the Improvement, has
generously contributed $50 to the Wide>
Awake Hook and Ladder company to as
sist in removing outside Indebtedness
ms was an act of liberality and kindness
entirely unexpected aud of course all the
more appreciated. not only by the Wide
Awakes themselves but BY all the hose
companies of the city to whose efficiency
require that the hook aud ladder
truck should be so equipped and manned
that 1t may at all times be the first at
fire.
The people of the city probably do not
realize the state Of proficiency that the
ilremen have reached In the department,
by their own efforts. If the taxpayers
and average citizen would take che time
day and night when passing by a hose
house and see how well the members a.
tend to the business in hand and how
well the horses are trained, the tap of the
gong bringing them in place. this good
service should be received by our people
with gratitude and backed BY the city
council with liberal allowances.

Why He Voted for Campbell and Free W Dol
During the recent campaign in Ohio
one OF the largest aockmasters in thai
state produced something like consrer
nation by announcing that he meant to
vote for Campbell and Free WOOL His
high tariff friends demonstrated with
him in vain. Then they asked him W nat
were his reasons for deserving the Ii h
tariff party at such time
"Well," he replied, 81 have been
thinking over this matter for a long
time. Last presidential election aim ost
voted the tariff reform ticket, but could
not screw up my courage at the last mo-
ment. But the more / read and think
about the subject the more / am con-
WINGED that it would be money in every
wool growers pocket to have free wool.
EAT present" he continued, mo coun-
try IN the world which manufactu -es
wooden goods raises enough of the raw
staple TO supply its own manufacturers.
So that England, France, Germany and
the United States have all to buy a
greater or less quantity of wool raised in
Australia or the Argentine Republic.
Now, the effect of removing the
duty on wool imported into this country
would be, in the first place, to send the
buyers of our wooden mills to the London
market. Once there, the competition of
new set of buyers would force up the
price of wool in the European markets
to its present level in this country. Not
only that, but these high prices would
be maintained.
1--WE should begin to pool our woods
along with the other wool growing coun-
tries of the world. At present, insult
able woods are used in our domestic
manufactures on account OF the hieb
price of imported woods. Under a free
wool scheme we would sell these wools
TO other countries which needed them
for the purposes for which they were best
fitted. In return, we would buy wools
which would enable us TO compete with
the English and French cloth makers Il

SOME NEW VIEWS ON THE TARIFF.
By Senator sherman in the Forty-sev snth
Cougresa.

By Senator Sherman In the Forty-Sev entf
Congress.
Senators ON the other side may think
from the vote-I can almost refer 10 il
rs party vote, though it is not entirely
party vote-that they can make politi-
cal capital by reducing the tax on to-
bacco. I do not believe it. l believe
the plain people of this country, as Mr..
Lincoln called them, see through it.
They are willing to pay the tax OF to-
bacco, on whisky and on beer. They
are the only internal taxes they are will
ing to pay, and are willing to let these
three taxes stand as they are until we
can gradually reduce them as the con-
dition of their revenue may allow.
Strip your internal revenue of all OF her
classes even if to do so does benefit some
of the banks, even if it does keep on
taxes that might be kept on little while
longer with no very great injury; yet it
confines the system to those three ar
ticles, which in every country are the
subjects of taxation. Then spread the
balance of your reduction on the ex5er-
nal taxes, and do what little good you
can until the tariff commission enables
US to reduce the whole system of ex5er-
nal taxes.
