Armour Guarded by Twenty Policemen.
Five Thousand Men Idle.
CHICAGO, August 25.-Nothing def.

the stock yards this morning. The re.

heavy and Armour is killing a few for
the city trade aud to Gil orders from
Boston, Philadelphia and else where.
Swift and Nelson Morris arc not killing.
Their houses have shut down and 5000
men who went expecting to work this
morning were forced to remain idle,
There was nothing for them 10 do. This
morning Armour applied for police pro.

his house. Morris also received guard.
1t is expected that some OF the roads

TIN ROMANCEs.

The only justification attempted of
the confessedly burdensome increase of
duties upon tin plate is that it will in
few years result in the removal of some
OF the plate factories of the old world to
this country and the development of a
new industry. 1t is conceded by lead
ing Republican papers that this will in
volve an annual tax upon the consumers
of tinware in its multitude of forms of
from six to eight millions of dollars for
at least ten years. This creation of
tin industry in this country is to be one
OF the signal achievements of the pro-
tective system as illustrated i'm the tariff
bill. Tin plate manufactures are
springing up like magic all over the
land. One who glows with this en-
thuslasm enumerateS seventy-six fac
tories to be established at a cost of S40,-
OOo,OOO. 1t is surprising that any 10
cality with a Republican club or COM
mlttee does not resolve to establish one
OF these institutions. In Ohio Republi-
can politicians have even gone so far as
to nominally, at least, open stock books.
This is all for effect. 1t is exceedingly
doubtful that even one tin plate plant
Will be established. 1t has been under
stood that English capitalists were ar
ranging for the initial manufactory in
the country, to be established at Pitts
burg on a vast scale, transferring thou
sands of their skilled wOrkmen from
over the water. This has been the only
substantial promise of this new in
duStry. But it begins to recede. The
English and Welsh tin plate max
ers were largely represented in
the gathering of foreign scientists
in steel and iron work who have
been looking over the country of late.
These parties visited Pittsburg last
week, and compared notes as to the
practicability of establishing TIN plate
plants there. They figured out the ele-
ments o. cost of the block plate. gath
eriDg from the local firms the value of
the raw material. After compiling all
the data to indicate what the plate
could be developed and made into tin
ware for, comparisons were made with
the cost at their manufactures in Wales,
and the statement is that they all agreed
that they could not invest, and that the
inducements of the MCKINLEY bill are
insufficient to introduce the manufact-
ure. Their statement was that ''tin
plate could not be made in America un-
der less protective ta,iff than four
cents pound" The interviews with
local manufacturers of block tin pub
llshed Ill Pittsburg paper agree that
no manufacture Of plate can be made
with the bonus proffered in the Nc
KINLEY bill. They assert that 31S cents
per pound is the least that would allow
of competition with the plants in Wales.
Perhaps the taIiff manipulators will add
the 10 per cent or so to the present duty
at the next session if the voting indi-
Gates that the people will stand it. But
the consumers will have the oppressive
burden to carry in any event. The pol
ltlcIans will go on erecting tin plate
works III their minds until after the
election. and the people will squeeze
their emaciated pocketbooks for the
further eXactionS.

STATE POLITICS.

The outside figures claimed for Owen

10000 pluraity.-Sauk Rapids Free
Press.
A very remarkable change has taken
place in the Republican campaign in
Minnesota within the past few days.
SIhe great change noticeable is the diff
terence in the utterance OF the Repub-
Iican press and speakers ON the McKin-
LEY bill. The state convention adopted
one OF the most unmeaning platforms
on the subject any party has ever made,
and until lately the campaign managers
have been silent on the subject. Now,
however, they are all shouting prOtec-
tion and the Mckinley bill.-Duluth
Times.

1t is significant fact that the five
congressman from this state can only
find time when they appear before the
people and ask reelection to apollo

foisting that iniquitous measure on the
working people of the country. This
one act is so damaging to them and
their constituents that they do not find
time to mention the force bill, the turn
ing out of Democrats to make room for
Republicans and several similar acts.-

WHY THEY HOPE.

The hope of the Republicans to over
rome the l,500 or more Democratic ma
Jority in one of the Ohio congressional
districts and eject ey-Gov. FOSTER is
encouraged by the fact that there are in
the district about twenty-five glass
works. These institutions have been
making large profits. but the new tariff
gives them opportunity to greatly raise
their figures. The Republican expecta-
ton of gaining votes among the wol kmen
is not likely to be met, as the great ma
jority of them are said to be foreigners,
probably not naturalized, who have been
brought over because they would work
at less than what Americans can live
decently on. The high tariff does them
no good. Trusts are formed to raise
prices to consumers. not wages TO warK-
ingmen. The glass trust is one of the
most complete of any of the lines COM

WLLMAR, Minn., Oct. 20.-Hon. S.

was principally on the tariff. which he
handled in good style, and it is safe to
say he made good many friends here.

evening, with delegations from Litch-
field, Atwater, Grove City and Kandi-

Los ANGELES, CAL, Oct. 20.-The
seventh annual convention of the Ma
tional brotherhood of Railway Train
men opened this morning in Labor hall,
the majority of the railroads of the
United States being represented. Grand
Master S. K. Wilkinson, of Galesburg,
ILL.,, presided, and in his annual address
congratulated the delegates upon the
present prosperous condition of the
brotherhood. The annual report of w.
h. Sheehan, the grand secretary and
treasurer. show an increase IN the men,
bership of the organization of 600 dur
ing the last year. its present strength
being now 14,057. There have been or
ganized during the year siXty-three new
lodges. making a total of 367 now
in existence. The organization has
been steadily enlarging its field of
work, aud now embraces all the states
in the Union and territories, as well
as Canada. Ireland and Sweden. Two
hundred and seyenty-fve disability and
| death claims to the total OF nearly $685.
00O have been paid during the year. Of
the total claims, over 200 resulted from
railroad accidents. Particular stress is
laid upon the fact that 1870 of the deaths
resulted from the coupler now in use'
and that the remainder of the accidents
were almost entirely traeeable to the
fact that the post of duty of the brake
man is on top of the cars The report
of the grand secretary will deal at
length with the recent conference of
the Federation of Railroad Employees
to consider the strike OH the New York
Central. and will justify the decision
arrived at in favor of non-interference.
The convention will be in session for
over week, and the delegates will be
handsomely entertained during their
stay in the city.
