THE M'KINLEY BILL.
What 1t Il, What 1t Seeks to Accomplish.
How It viii Affect the Revenues.

In accordance with it's pledge the
Republican party has passed what is
called the Mckinley bill, a comparison
of which with the Mills bill reveals at
once the economic difference between
the two parties. The Republican bill
places duty on wool, the Democratic
bill places wool on the free list. The
Republican bill places protective
duty on all animals, vegetables, bar
ley. hemp, tobacco, flax, and all
products OF the soil; upon cotton
goods, woolen goods, crockery, glass
ware, iron, STEEL hardware, and cut
lery. The Democrat C bill places veg
etables Oh the free list. leaves but n
revenue duty on all animals, OH
barley, and tobacco; moves toward a
revenue duty on cOttons, woolens,
crOckery, glassware, iron, steel, hard
ware and cutlery. The Republican
bill places sugar on the free list; the
Democratic bill placed the duty Oh
sugar at 90 per cent. 1t will be seen
that these measures are most mar
velously unlike. 1t is not accident or
chance. 1t is because one bill favors
the protection of American agricul-
ture, manufactures, and labor and
the other bill opposed this policy.

scHwErNFuRrH BEFORE A JURY.
Inmates of the Rockford Heaven" Brought
Into Court and Questioned.

ROCKFORD, Ill.,, Oct. 13. - George
Jacob Schweinfurth, Father Weldon
and about a dozen other disciples and
angels OF the Winnebago county
''heavsn" were before the grand jury
to-day. Mary Weldon said that she
had been a follower of the faith since
she was q child. She had never had
any knowledge OF man, and had ever
been a seeker for light. She had had a
child, but it came without sin, and
she rejoIced to think that she had been
chosen worthy to bring it into the
world. The entire Weldon family was
examined, with practically the same
result. There are none of the inmate
OF ''heaven" who do not appear to he
anxious to give their testimony.
Father Weldon himself, with his ven-
cradle and handsome face, soft voice
and patient bearing made a deep i'm
preston upon the jurors. His two
daughters, five sons and Apostle Smith
all gave their testimony, and none OF
them varied an iota. The sleeping ac-
of "heaven" were dis
cussed, and all their evidence went to
show that they lived happy and blame
less lives. Ii is not thought possible
that the grand jury will be able to do
anything toward breaking up Schwein
iurth's business.
