AS TO TIN PLATE.

The duty on tin plate as provided
in the Mckinley bill went into effect on
July LIST. Although tin plate has been
manufactured in limited quantities
for several months, We can now look
for more activity in this new industry.
Establishments are going up in vari-
Gus parts Of the country to engage in
it's manufacture, and while it will re-
quire the employment of imported
skilled labor at first. in a few years it
will be entirely in the hands of Ameri-
can workmen, and the price of every
article of its manufacture will be far
cheaper than it has ever been i'll the
past, as was the result from the man.
ufacture of steel rails. Says the Min
neapolis Tribune:
"'In 1850 We produced 600, 900 tons
OF steel rails, which sold at S61 a ton;
In 1890, after ten years OF protection,
1000, 600 tons, costing the consumer
but $50 a ton. Only a little over a
dozen years age Great Britain pro-
duced most of the worlds steel, lust
as that country now produces the tin
plate. But during those dozen years
OF protection the production of Amer
lean steel has multiplied five told, and
the United States Is now the first ma
ton on the globe in steel production"
We import S2l ,00o, 900 OF tin plate
yearly, but with the protection given
10y the Mckinley bill "a large part, if
not all, OF that will be made here, Civ
ing employment to American labor,
and an additional demand for the
products of the farm. In twenty
years the United States has spent
$500, 600, OOoto support British labor
and capital in the manufacture of tin
plate. Every nan who believes in
American enterprise and ingenuity
will hail the day when we are depend
ent upon England for nothing in the
line OF manufacture, and there is no
thing in which Americans canno sue
coed if t hey make the attempt.

The attempt ON the part OF the
Democratic press to- create the im'

He was elected Vice President on the

the principal characters in the exciting
events OF the war period. He was a

THE Fort Worth Mail, illustrating
the old proverb about ignorance and
bliss, has the following concerning
the failure of the democracy of Ne
braska to steal the governorship:
The supreme court of Nebraska has
ousted Boyd and 1eseated Thayer rs
governor. Boyd was elected Oh the
democratic ticket to succeed Thayer,
who was not renominated. The
grounds of the decision are not given,
but it is possible that the court holds
it unconstitutional to elect democrat
in Nebraska.
For the information of the Mail, the
supreme court held that Boyd was
not eligible as a candidate not being
a citizen of the United States. Boyd
claimed citizenship on the ground
that he was a resident of the
territory when it was admitted
to the union, and that the act of
admission was an enabling act con-
ferring citizenship on all bona fide
residents of the territory. The court
in it's decision gave statute, showing
conclusively that the act of admission
had no such force, did not confer citi.
zenship, and that, therefore, Boyd,
who had no other claim to United
States citizenship, was not eligible as
candidate. AS under Nebraska's con-
stitution the old governor holds over
in a case like this, where the elected
is not eligible, Governor John M.
Thayer was reseated.
