He Astonished MT. Reeds Tools.

Mr.. Macbeth is not a relative of the
Scotch King whom MacDuff fought to q
finish. He is manufacturer of lamp
chimneys at Pittsburgh. He was wit
ness the other day before the committee
on ways and means-to keep up tariff
taxes-and he gave some interesting
testimony. Among other things he
said: ssGive me free material or free
trade, such as England has, and give
me the proper products of my labor. and
defy any competition ON the face of
the earth" Asked if, under free trade,
he could compete against foreign COM
petition without reducing wages, he
asserted that free trade would opsn new
markets for his wares and enable him
to employ more labor 1t better wages
He was dismissed rs an unsatisfactory
witness, for the committee. as organized
by Speaker Reed, was, in search of no
such information There is no doubt,
however, that what he says Of his own
business is equally true of almost all

Reeds Anarchis tic Reign.

Mr.. Reed has given the whole snap
away. He has undertaken to avoid a
light over the adoption of new rules for
the House by running the House with
out any special rules In his opinion,
the interests of the Republican party at
this particular juncture can be best sub
served by visiting upon the country a
legislative reign of anarchy. In such
an event, the construction of broad
system of parliamentary law will be
made by himself to suit the various
special occasions and purposes to which
it will be applied during the session.
In other words, the new Speaker pro-
poses to rise serene and allpowerfu1
above the chaos that will follow House
without rules and play the role of an
absolute autocrat. He wants to be the
First Consul of the American Govern
ment, its Napoleon. From all appear
ances, the Republican party is in set
OF desperate straits, and Tom Reed is
its false prophet Such methods will
not appeal very strongly to thinking
people of the decade of the nineteenth
century.-Nashvile American.

tea, coffee, fish, oysters and many other
articles not the product of American
agriculture. OF purely agricultural prod
ucts these classes will not consume
more than $3.50, 600, 600, estimated at the
price paid for them by the consumers,
which includes all charges of transpor-
tation and profits. For these products
the farmers receive not more than $780,
OOO, 600, which is but trifle over 2
per cent. of the annual products of ag-
ricultural industry. This is the whole
value of the home market which pro-
lection gives to the farmer, in exchange
for which he pays Al per cent. profit on
all protected products which he is COM
PEELED to buy.
Senator Cullom laid great stress on
the reduction in the price of steel rails
since 1867, and described it las typi-
cal case of the working of protection"
Mr.. Carlisle shows that the reduction is
due to improved processes and the ex-
piration of patents: that there has been
corresponding reduction in free-trade
England, where the price is still lower
than in America, and that there has
been a similar diminution in the prices
of non-protected products. He then
takes the Senator's own figures, and
after reducing them to a gold basis,
shows that protection cost American
consumers $1SS. 514, OO4 in the price of
steel rails alone in the twelve years
from 1871 to 1882.
Instead of attributing whatever prog
ress agriculture has made to protection,
Mr.. Carlisle urges that it is far more
reasonable to conclude that, if our
farmers had not been compelled to pay
so much to insure profits 20 others, they
would now have more money and fewer
mortgages.-Louisvil Courier-Journal.

GENERAL NEWS.

A big carpenters strike took place
April It'll at Chicago, according to pro-
gramme. 1t is estimated that between
5000 and 5000 men are out. Carpenter
work on nearly all the large jobs has
been brought to a stand still. The strike
Is for eight hours as days work with
wages at 40 cents per hour. great
many of the nop-uplon men quit work
out of sympathy with their union breth-
ren.
The women's ticket won the day In
Edgarton, Kansas, after one of the most
holly contested campaigns eyer known in
that city.
1t is estimated that about 900 men are
out on strike in Chicago. In some
places the bricklayers went out with the
carpenters out of sympathy. Nearly all
of the other building trades will have to
stop work soon unless terms are reached
between the carpenters and bosses. In
that event $4,000 men will be idle. No
disturbance during the day. Some con-
tractors who must complete the work
they have on hand to-day, offered an ac
ceptment Of their terms the brotherhood
refuse to let anyone return to work until
the Builders Association recognized the
Union.
At the city election in Hartford, CT,
Monday, Henry c. Dwight, republican.
was elected mayor by l05 plurality. The
democrats elect four aldermen and seven
teen councilmen. The republicans elect
four alderm en- and fifteen councimen.
OF the eight aldermen who hold over
from last year six are republicans. The
city government Ia republican on joint
ballot by majority of two. This is the
first city election under the secret ballot
law. The polls closed at and the result
was known before ..
The cyclone has been causing vast
amount of destruction in the west, of
late. 1t has just been learned that
Harper's Ferry in Henry county, Ky,
was almost completely destroyed by the
tornado. The village was composed Of
less than two dozen houses. Every house
was directly in the course of the tornado.
Not house remained standing and the
surrounding country was covered with
wreckage. The property loss amounts to
$40, 900. 1t is also reported that Pro-
phetstown, H., has been swept away by
a cyclone. There are no particulars ex-
cept that twenty freight cars were blown
to atoms and whole town had been
wiped from the face Of the earth and
many people killed.
The lumber market at Boston and New
York is firm and trade is good in several
lines, particularly spruce. The outlook
is that the northern mills will have all
they can do to keep up their orders at
strong prices. Indeed, extravaganza fig
ures are mentioned in some instances for
early cargoes.

The Rosetta Stone.

The key to the Interpretation of Egyptian
hieroglyphics was first given through the
means of the Rosetta stone, which was dis
covered in 1888, by NJ Boussard, French
officer of engineers during the French occu-
patton of Egypt, in an excavation made at
Fort ST. Julian, near Rosetta, on the Bolbi-
tic branch of the Nile, about four miles above
the mouth The ''stone" is IA triingual in
scription in hieroglyphic, Roman and Greek.
1t i q black balsalt, about feet inches in
length and feet 6 inches in width. 1t con-
tains in its present state about one-third Of
the hieroglyphics, and nearly all the Roman
and Greek parts, the upper part and portion
of the side having been broken away.
The contents are decree in honor of Pto-
lemy Epphanes by the priests Of Egypt, as
sembled in synod at Memphis, on account
of his remission of arrears of taxes and dues
owed by the sacerdotal body. 1t was set up
b. c. 1876, and it is the only one of the nu-
merous examples ordered to he placed which
has been brought to light. The stone was
delivered up to the British on the cnpitula'
ton of Alexander, and was taken to England
In 1902 and placed in the British Museum.
