The inquest on the body Of William L.
Buck, the cashier OF the Darby National
National Bank, who was killed on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, near Holmes,
on Monday night. will be held to NOR

Mr.. .lBuck was murdered and his body
placed beside the railroad track. All the
facts, however, show that he was killed
by the fast express train No 506, Mr..

named Andrew Fubmile was given charge
of the boat until the next season. This
he did, and then claimed the boat for

SOME IMPROVEMENTS.

Mr.. L. P. HUNT, who is attending
the annual meeting of the Editors
and Publishers Association at St.
Paul, has purchased for the FREE
PRESS trimming, FASTING and fold
ing machine, which will be put in as
soon as it can arrive from the factory
By this means the weekly edition of
the FREE PRESS will be cut at the top,
pasted through the center, and folded
ready for delivery. The increasing
mailing list has long made the neces-
sity for this machine felt in this of
flee, and the consolidation of the REG
IsTER with the FREE PRESS makes it
absolutely necessary to enable us to
handle the large edition. The new,
form of the paper will prove great
convenience to subscribers in looking
over their papers, and they cannot
Pfail to appreciate the change.
To-day the first issue of the WEEK
LY FREE PRESS since the consolida-
tion with it of the REGISTER, is put
out, and as stated in both papers last
week the FREE PRESS will be sent to
all subscribers of the REGISTER. We
hope that the patrons of the REGIS
TER will feel that they are just as well
served as they have been hitherto.
We shall devote our energies to the
accomplishment of this purpose, of
the fulfillment of which we hope to
give weekly proof.
We have taken the subscription
book of the REGISTER, and where
both papers have hitherto been re-
ceived by the same party, the uneX-
pired time on the REGISTER will be
credited to the subscribers account
on the FREE PRESS, whether daily or
weekly. Those knowing themselves
to be in arrears to the REGISTER will
confer favor on us by settling their
accounts promptly. Those. who do
this can take advantage of the one
dollar year in advance rate made by
the FREE PRESS.
| The WEEKLY FREE PRESS will be
sent to any address for one dollar a
year paid in advance, where nothing
is due in arrears.
The FREE PRESS proposes to con-
tinue, as it has been in the past, the
best county paper in the state, and
hopes that the REGISTER subscribers
will soon be SO convinced, and con-
tinue their patronage and good will
to this office. To deserve this, we pro-
pose to leave nothing undOne.

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.

Mr.. Wyman, the agent of the free
trade English party WHO'S very earnest
ly advocating reciprocal free trade be-
tween Canada and the United States
makes this statement as a strong ar
gument in favor of his pet scheme,
and thinking the farmers are so stup-
idly wild for free trade they will Jump
at the bait like trout at a live worm.
He says Canada, on the western and
northwestern boundary of the United
States, has several million square miles
of the most fertile soil for wheat and
other agricultural products, which we
could draw upon for food products, and
which is only waiting for free trade
with the United States to be rapidly
settled by British subjects, and the
trade in farm products would be large
ly increased thereby, and products
cheapened as natural result. What
Mr. Wyman says of the grain produc-
ing in Canada is doubtless true. Cana
ola has doubtless greater area Of
wheat lands than the United States,
and as productive in all other small
grains. But does the intelligent
American who comes on our frontier
think the best thing for him to do is
to adopt policy which will not only
build up the waste places of foreign
country, but by foreign competition
with his own products, naturally de-
preciate the value of his own products?
The only class of American farmers
that can see anything attractive in
that argument, and that species mot
very numerous whose gushing philan-
thropy all goes out to foreigners, while
niggardly parsimony ruins their home
dealings, and too enyious or jealous Of
their neighbors prosperity, not to pre-
fer witnessing this of the farmers, and
too unpatriotic not to prefer the pros
perity of the foreign country to their
own. Among the farmers of the from
tierof Ohio and New York in the old
udyS Will VIC udu IOCIplOClUy "lUu
Canada, Mr.. Wyman will find very
few advocates for his measure. For
IA years the writer owned and operat-
ed farm near the mouth of Lake On
tario, only about thirty miles South
west of Kingston, our Canadian mar
ket, and part of the time during the
Reciprocity period, and never met
farmer from Buffalo to Quebec that
liked the measure, or that desired it's
continuance. The importation of
French, or as they were commonly
called, hammock horses, was thousands
of dollars damage to the horse breed
ers of my native county, who had gain
ed so fine reputation for good fine
roadsters, carriage horses and breed
ing, as well team and farm horses that
horsemen from New York, Duchess
and Albany counties came every spring
and fall for horses for those markets,
but the prices on farm horses was
greatly deprecated, pair of Kannuck
horses would do little more blowing

and could be bought at the same, and
sometimes at a little less price, so
that ordinary farm horses which could

that after it passes these the measure
will be somewhat distigured, and it's

be taken as sound and logical, even
by some of his own party.

THE New York State Senate has
passed a resolution charging their
delegation in Congress against free
SaeJJInage. One of the soundest argu-
ments against the free coinage act is
that businessmen, as rule, are OPP
posed TO it. They being, from train
ing, more or less conversant with
economic and financial questions, their
Judgment is worthy of weight in the
deliberations of the general public. 1t
is but recently that the public at, large
began to reflect on this important
issue, and it cannot well withstand
the scrutiny of unbiased minds. Free
coinage seems to be doomed.
