WM. MCKINLEy JR., the Trainer Of
the tariff bill. ia one of his recent
speeches, has THU to say, rs to the pur.
poses Of the law.
The chief complaint against the
tariff hSll comes from importers and
copsignees her ON the one hand, and
the foreign merchants ard consignors

MaDifestly because In some way this
bill will check their business here and
increase the business If our own msu-

sumptio Of our own made goods.

The Fourth Finger.

II is a generally known fact that the
fourth or ring finger of the human
hand is not on n par with the other fin
gers, it being the weakest, the least
flexible and the most rebellions In ac-
ton. Scientific men explain this feeble
ness by the theory that the lateral ten
dons joining the ring finger to the 9TH
ers composing the hand in a measure
paralyze its movements. To the ma
jority of people it matters little that
one of the fingers should be inferior to
the rest in strength. As a scientific
oddity, however, 1t is worthy Of note.
To the pianist Oh the player of stringed
instruments it is a source of consider
able inconvenience.
As art can in the present day remedy
most defects which incommode us a
medic"l man has thought that some
thing might be done to free the ring
finger. He informs those interested In
the matter that il they wish to have a
strong, flexible fourth finger they have
but 10 submit to a surgical operation.
which consists in dividing the tendons
OF the hand. The operation, which is
very simple, scarcely deserving the
name, has recently been performed on
several New York, Boston and Brook.

Foreign Dolls at the capita,.


Very neal so,ne cradle cases In the
National museum dre hundreds OF
dolls, and l see that the children of all
the world are alike in their love for
toys. Some Of the finest dolls come
from Alaska. and nearly every tribe has
its different kind of doll. Many OF
them are carved FROM ivory, and they
are made to represent dhe people who
make them.
The doll of the Eat headed Indian
has a tia, head, and one from southern
Alaska will have a hole through its
lower lip with an ivory pin in it to rep
resent the cust,im of the ladies Of Alas.
ka who pierre their lip in this way.
The dolls OF the Indians are of both
sexes. and not n few of them are tn
tooed.
One Of the Alaskan dolls has a ring
in his nose on which are strung red,
white and blue beads, and other dolls
are made of straw or grasses. The
prettiest doll in the world, perhaps, is
the Japanese doll, and from the doll
you can study the customs of the coun-
try. The little punches of hair on the
different parts of a japanese dolls head
enable us TO tell just how old it is, and
you can tell a japanese child's age by
its hair.
Some of the babies have their heads
entirely shaved with the exception of
two little wisps of hair under the ears.
These are very young babies. After
they grow a few months old a ring of
hair is allowed to remain about the
crown and so they keep or adding un-
til the whole of the head is covered. 1t

the singular plea that their object was

to establish peace and good will in the
world by removing all obnoxious per-

wives and so IN. The authorities
could not e the case exactly in that

vent further traffic in the poison, but

MR.. E c. BEDDING IELD.
The Secretary of the State Alliance
Speaks IN Winston.

sPSdkS III tSihStOus
Mr.. f. c. Beddingfield, Sec'y of the
N. C. Farmers Alliance, made good
| talk TO the farmers and the general
public in Browns Opera House last
Saturday evening.
He said he was there to talk to
his brother farmers without preju-
| dice or passion.
He knew there were some very de-
| cent, good men in the Republican
| party in Forsyth county and the
piedmont section but he did not un-
derstand how they could stay there
Down in Wake county the Republi-
| can convention met a short time ago
and there were not a dozen respecta-
BILE men in it. They were nearly all
revenue Officers and negroes. He
knew there were some men in the
Democratic party not fit to live out
side of the penitentiary, but when
you come to look at those in the Re
publican party there was no compar-
iSOn.
The State Democratic convention
met few weeks ago and he, us Sec'y
of the Farmers Alliance, had handed
the committee on platform one of
the demand cards. And the con-
vention put every principle which the
Alliance specially favors into their
platform. What had the Republi-
cans done? They had not made any
concessions to the Alliance.
A short time since, the Democrats
of Wake county met and they gave
more than half the Offices to the AL
lance men. Every Democratic can
didate in Forsyth, except one, is an
Alliance man.-Ed.
The Alliance was specially anxious
for a railroad commission and it pro-
posed to work for men who would
deal justly by the people. While he
had not one word to say against
the character of Mr.. .Chas. Price,
whom the Republicans had nomina-
ted for the Supreme court bench, yet
it was true that Mr.. Price was paid
railroad attorney. If he were selected
to Judge between the people and the
railroads, his sympathy would natu-
rally be with the latter and he would
not be able to give an unbiased opin-
ion On the other hand, the Demo-
Gratis had nominated Judge Merri-
mon, who was spotless, and against
whom no man could bring a charge.
Mr.. Beddingfeld appealed to his
brother farmers to lay aside preju-
dice. The war is thing Of the past.
We are here to vote for the party
which does the most for the people
He then showed how the Republican
party had oppressed the people and
that the Democratic party was their
friend.
Throughout his speech, Mr.. Bed
dingfeld was moderate and fair. He
showed that he was talking to broth
er farmers in a kindly spirit and not
as partizan, and they listened at
tentively andapplauded him heartily.
He is an earnest, honest man and
every farmer ought to take Mr.. Bed
dingfield's advice and vote the DEM
ocra tic ticket, because it is to his in
terest do it.
