Minnesota Soldiers Home.

Henry A. Castle, president of the
board of trustees of the Minnesota
Soldiers Home, sends us the follow
ing circular:
The Minnesota Soldiers Home is
now prepared to receive all worthy
and eligible applicants for admission.
The new buildings authorized by the
last legislature are approaching COM
pletion, afisEfor the first time in it's
history the Home will have room for
all who are likely to apply within the
next six months. 1t is reported to the
board that many ex-soldiers are now
inmates of almshouses, or dependent
on public charity. All such, if with
out families, are entitled to apply for
admission to the Home, and diligent
search and inquiry should be made
for them, as their continuance in their
present condition is disgrace to the
state.
No insane patients can be received.
But for all sick Or disabled persons,
especially such as require delicate sur
gical operations, there is now fully
equipped hospital at the Home, ample
for all prospective demands. To this
hospital may be sent eligible ex-sol-
dlers who have families, for operations
or medical treatment, to be discharged
when cured.

of trustees to make the home, within

The Anti-Sub-Treasury Alliance Will
Hold q Convention.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 21.-Chairman
w. s. McAllister, of the anti-sub-
treasury Alliance executive committee,
has issued call for national conven-
ton of all anti-sub-treasury Alliance
men to be held at Memphis, Tenn, Dec
16. This is the first move to organize
an opposition to the Alliance, F. M.
B. A. and Peoples party, and is the di-
rect result of the refusal of the Alliance
to hear the protest of the McAllister
faction. The course of all the parties
for the future has become well defined,
There will be no formal Endorsement or
cooperation between the Alliance and
F, M. B. A. and the Peoples party.
The executive committee of the last
named was in session during the morn
ing and Ignatius Donnelly spoke for a
long time, and the committee, upon his
advice, decided not to push its demands
for Endorsement at this time. The COM
mittee thinks that at the national con-
ventional of the party next summer a
platform can be built that will serve
the common political purposes of every
industrial organizat ton in the country.

made at the Exposition. In explana-
ton of his idea he says: Il want an
exhibit of every weapon and utensil
used in hunting, fishing and trapping
since the discovery of this country
down to the present day. We have
the greatest hunting country on the
earth. The Boone and Crockett
Club, of which I am member, is en-
thusiastic over an exhibition of the
kind, and we want nothing in it but
what is American. For instance
know where the rifles of Davy Crock
EFT and Daniel Boone can be secured.
The exhibition should embrace the
heads of all kinds of American game
of the larger sort, and specimens OF
the smaller game, animals, birds and
fishes; the old wigwams, hunting
shocks of pioneer days, all kinds of
weapons, and all conveniences that
go to make up modern hunting

Probably there arevery few men who
go as far as we do in the matterof pro
lection. We are not only in favor OF
tariff on all goods that are manu-
featured in our country in sufficient
quantities for our own supply, but we
are in favor of tariff on all imported
labor. Free traders claim that they
are opposed to importing laborers,
while at the same time they are in IA
vor of admitting to our markets free
of duty goods manufactured by for
eign laborers. To this inconsistency
we object. Home competition, but no
-oorrpe.ieaon with the pauper@ aes,or Of
the old world, is our doctrine. As to
the matter of cheap goods, it is an I'M
disputed fact that any article manu-
featured in this country in sufficient
quantities for our own use that has
had a steady protection for two sue
cessive presidential terms, has gradu-
ally decreased in price.

Duluth Correspondence.
DULUTH, Mimi, Nov. %, 9

DULUTH, Mimi, Nov. 70, VI.
EDITOR TRIBUNE An event of much
more than usual Importance to Duluth
and the entire Northwest is about to
occur. 1t is the starting of the first
coke blast furnace in the Lake Superb
or region. This might be taken for a
boom item, but it is not, for it is not
only for Duluth and her iron men
who are looking forward to this event,
but the iron interests of the country.
It is so importatn because the sue
cess or failure of this first blast furn-
ace will determine for many years to
come the question whether iron and
steel can be mado in this region in
competition with Pittsburg, Cleve-
land and Chicago. This is why it
means so much. For if the success
come that is expected, Duluth's flu
ture as great iron manufacturing
point is assured. Not only Duluth,
but all surrounding points will be the
gamers, and the Northwest will get
iron cheaper than ever, for there will
be hundreds of freight saved.
The Iron Age, the leading journal
of the iron and steel interests of
America, recently said: "The move
cannot fail to be regarded as of very
great interest by an important section
of the trade. 1t will be the first at
tempt to establish coke pig iron in
dustry on strictly modern principles
directly in the Lake Superior region.
Considering the proximity of the
Minnesota iron ore mines on one hand
and the low freight on coal on the
other, it would not be surprising if
the expectations are fully realized
and Bessemer pig iron should be
made at Duluth as cheaply as at
Pittsburg. If this be the case on an
actual furnace run, an impetus will be
given to iron and steel production on
the shores Of Lake Superior that
theoretical essays and cost estimates
would never have accomplished" At
ter this winter the company will make
it's own coke. This winter it buys
from one of the coal companies which
has cooking ovens at Superior. It
might be added that the expectations
are that the experiment will show
that it is cheaper to bring coal here
and make the pig iron at Duluth than
to send the ore to Chicago or Pitts
burg. It will certainly be so for the
Northwestern market.
The furnace is at West Duluth,
completed some time ago by the Du-
luth Iron & Steel Company, and late
ly leased to Chicago company. It
is the latest built furnace in the
country, and as fine as there is. It's
capacity is 12O to $50 tons day,
but for the present will make about
100 tons of pig iron day, employing
100 men. It will sell most of it's out
put to the steel plant at West SUPERB
or, which has plate mill completed
and will make speciality of plates
for the McDougall barges. When
this plate is made, all the McDougall
barges will be the product of the head
of Lake Superior, as the Marinette
Iron works at West Duluth will fur
nish the engines and boilers for fu-
ture steamers. HAYS.
