Salient Poiats of the Speeches, and Incl

RICHMOND, Va, May 30.-There never
was such gathering in this city in all its
history, in point of numbers, as that of
yesterday Old residents liken it to that
memorable springtime of 1861, when the
gray uniformed troops began to gather for
the long and bloody struggle. 1t does not
need a vivid Imagination to see that
the two pictures, if placed side by side,
would bear close resemblance, for then,
as yesterday, the busy thoroughfares were
filled with soldiery and the stars and bars
had already been flung to the breeze as the
symbol of new coDfederacy. But yes
terday there were 100 Confederate en-
blems where then there were but one.
Jubal Early Introduces the Orator.
After the procession was over and the
vast throng had been brought to some
sort of order, Gen. Jubal Early arose and
introduced the orator of the day, Col.
Archer Anderson. Early referred briefly
to the beginning of the movement to build
a monument to Gen. Lee, and in the course
of his remarks said that he was particu-
larly glad to welcome the private soldier
the war; and who had been doing his duty
and remaining faithful to his colors ever
since.
Gov. McKinney's Remarks.
After the statue had been unveiled Gov
ernor Mckinney said it was his desire not
to perpetuate animosity or excite bitter
ness of feeling in any portion of this coun-
try, but to express the love and alteration
of the people of the south for those who
had fallen in their behalf. That feeling
was unconquerable and eternal Zap
plause.l Amid all the southern states
there existed feeling of love for the Con-
federacy, (which" he said "is now dead"
He named each state and the chief repre-
sentatives which it had sent to the exer-
cises. AS he named in succession Reagan,
Longstreet, Gordon, Holt, Hampton and
Johnston, each name was greeted with
prolonged cheering. '"Not with sorrow do
they come" said he "but as conquering
heroes they are here"

TIN-PLAIE MANUFACTUEE.

One of the very worst features Of the new
tariff is that part which advances the rate
on tin-plate, an article that is used in a
great variety of industries that furnish en-
ployment for myrads Of operatives. The
imposition Of the increased duty was at the
instance Of few men who claimed that it
was impossible for the tin-plate manufac-
turers of this country to compete success
fully with the English manufacturers in
the same branch Of business. Now that
the tax has been increased, several cOmpa-
MES have been formed in great haste in
order TO obtain share of the harvest which
is 10 be reaped from this Infamous lesisla-
zion; or probably it would be more cor
robbers who are eager to snatch portion
Of the plumber wrung by the tin-plate tax
from the millions who have occasion TO use
tin-plate.
II is reported that the most extensive tin
plate plant in the world is at once to be
erected in Baltimore by corporation
whose members have subscribed capital
stock of$T, 900 O01, and who are aiming 10
get monopoly of the manufacture Of tim
plate in the United states. In other words,
as if the tax did not in itself raise the cost
Of tin-plate to the consumer sufficiently
nigh already, this new company. supported
bya practically unlimited capital, pro-
poses to slip in, and after driving all com
petitOrs from the American market, raise the
cost to the miserable consumer still higher,
and obtain thereby profit on their article
of manufacture, which will be as iniquitous
in lis way, and probably as great, as the
profit of the sugar or the Standard Oil
Trust.
There is hardly citizen in the United
states who is not compelled to use tin in
one form or another, and who, therefore,
whether he is aware of ii or not, will be
Indirectly driven to contribute his share
to the enormous revenue which this
new corporation is certain to derive
from the manufacture of tin-plate.

pany shall find it impossible TO control
the market by the power of their vast capt.

Web-FOoted lnsbriates.

On big farm near town some men have
lately been gathering tomatoes and extract
ing the seed. The vegetable is frs, ground
and then placed where the mass is allowed
to ferment. Ii is then put through a
washer, allowing the pulp 10 float away.
while the seed settles at the bottom of the
machine. The work is done on the margin
of "A small brook which empties into pond
frequented by handsome flock of white
Pekin ducks.
The ducks have contracted the habit of
coming up TO the mouth OF the stream and
drinking the lermenled juice Of the to-
matoes, which contains the most salient
characteristics OF Jersey lightning" They

most ludicrous manner. They have become

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

At their meeting in Boston, on Thursday.
the members of the National civil service
Reform League, one OF the most patriotic
and admirable associations ever formed 10y
American citizens, seeking 70 promote the
public welfare. openly charged the present
National Administration not only with
having failed TO extend the scope OF civil
service reform, as it was solemnly PLEDGED
10 do. but also with consciously and inten-
tionally violating several OF the most II
portaht of the civil service rules which had
been established when Mr.. Cleveland Was
in control of our National affairs.
The force Of this condemnation is Ver.
much increased when the fact is recalled
that the League is composed of men who
belong TO both parties, and who are active
supporters of their respective party orrani-
cations when ordinary political issues are
to be decided.
The resolutions cOndcmning the Republl-
can party in this particular instance could
not have been expressed with too much
yigor. The whole course Of the late Assist
ant Postmaster-General, Mr.. ClarksOn, was
in the most shameful violation OF the letter
and the spirit of the civil service law, made
all the more 50 by the cool contempt which
characterized his indifference TO It's obi IA
iions. The present collector of Baltimore,

mas in the last few days become very c1r-
spicuOus by his public references to the
civil service law as unworthy of attention.
an opinion which he has illustrated in &C
ton 10y deliberately turning out men who
held office under him, not by his selection,
but by regular appointment after passing
examinations provided for by the terms OF
laws on the National statute-bOok
No subordinate officer Of our government
would have the boldness and the eflrontery
to take such a position as this unless he
was fully assured of the countenance and
sympathy Of his suDeriors. If suci>is the
case, and there is no reason to dosibt but
that ii is. what is TO be thought Of the Ma
tional Administration, which, sworn 10 adj
minister and see administered the Laws of
the land, calmly oyerlooks their wanton
violation.

No one will be disposed to east the shadow
OF doubt on the devotion Of eX-Presidenl
Hayes TO the Republican party or his low
atty 10 its general principles. lie has no
reason TO love the Democratic party, aud
not the smallest motive TO promote its in
,erests by expressing approval of its con-
duct or admiration for any OF its flnda-
mental doctrines, and yet in a recent inter
view with representative Of one Of the
leading New York dailies, referring TO the
Mckinley bill, he condemned ii without
reserve.
II cannot ind words" he said. ITO ex-
press my regrets at the passage OF the mea-
sure. II is rIlinous 10 all our best interests

that party during its existence. can only
say that hope such policy will die out
surely and soon, but cannot shut my eyes
10 the evil that will be done before such
protection as this finds remedy"
These are strong words coming from one
who occupies as prominent and distin-
guished position in the past history Of the
Republican party as the ex-Prcsident does;
and they are entitled to additional weight,
not only because they proceed from man
who has, fOr number OF years, been re-
moved from all the turmoil of active par
iicipatioa in politics. but also because they
are the utterances Of party man, who
nevertheless expects 10 further reward ai
the hands of his political associates.
Independently Of all these different con-
sderations, which are well calculated 10
add to the force of the words quoted, they
are unquestionably true and accurate in
themselves. Mr.. Hayes was entirely right,
in saying that the passage Of the Mckinley
bill will injure the interests Of the country
most seriously, and thereby jeopardize the
prospects of the Republican party. If the
American people shall conteniedly submit
=. ..,c iniquities that will certainly attend
the operation Of the Lew tariff law, and
shall continue the party which framed that
law, in the control of National affairs, then
they are fully prepared to accept supinely
any form Of tyranny that may be imposed
upon them.
We do not believe that the great mass Of
Americans are ready to sink TO such point
Of decrada,ion. and one Of the grounds for
this conviction is the protest which has
been raised by such men as eX-President
HAYES. Republican, whose natural dispo-
si;ion is to act with his party, and TO justify
its course. But it has gone too far for Re
publicans Of his conservative stamp, ard
the secession on this issue Of all the Repuh-
Leans who entertain the same opinions, and
they must be extremely numerous, signi-
lies the future overthrow Of the party be-
yond a reasonable doubt.

She stands Feet 10, and Her Feet IRE
No Incumbrance.
1t may be stated without fear of dispute
that Miss Ella Ewing, of Fairmount, Clark
county, Mo-. is the possessor Of bigger feet
than any other woman in the country. The
Young lady, VINO is now but eighteen years
of age, ordered last week pair OF shoes
from the Tenants tribling Shoe Company,
and they are now very nearly finished. The
shoes are the largest ever turned out IN II.
Louis. The last over which they were con-
strucied measures fifteen aud Onc-tourih
inches in length. and tour and Onp-halI
inches in width at the ball of the foot. There
is enough leather in one OF the heels 10 build
five pairs of ordinary ladies' shoes. and the
leather in each shoe would be sufficient, ii
il all could be utilized, TO make thirty pairs
Of ordinary shoes. A. W. FOOte, who made
the last. states that within the period OF
his eighteen years experience in the shoe
business he has never seen anything 10 quite
equal Miss Ewng's foot. II took him day
and half to look up the timber, and when
he finally secured large enough maple
block TO hew the last from, he was obliged
to ill out the instep with leather.
Miss Ewing, the young lady who will
wear the shoes when they are entirely con-
structed, is the daughter OF "A farmer II

early part of her life in the woods, In the
vicinity Of Chicago. Her height is feet 10
