1t was when she was in deep grief for the
death of Mr.. Carson that she first met Mrs.
During, who had just set up in the "spook
business" She really is a wonderfully
magnetic and attractive creature, and soon
convinced Mrs. Carson that she could raise
the spirit of the late lamented brewer at
will. She also called up Joan OF Arc and
Others to console the widow, and went on
at great length, till on various pretenses
she had secured from the wealthy lady the
sum of $4,000. There is no telling how far
this thing might have zone had the Dur

had the audacity to concoct a scandal" on

natural Appearances. The controversy is
as old as written records at least. All
sacred writings, the Bible included, cite
instances and give to their narratives the
authority of inspiration and the testimony
of witnesses Therefore it is little to be-
wondered at that even In this age of exact
science and widespread doubt there should
still exist as a remarkable and potent force
a s~huddering but reluctant acquiescence in
the general proposition hat disembodied
spirits sometimes revisit earth.
Nearly always it is noticed that some
tragedy precedes the spectral phenomenon.

WEDNESDAY OCTOBER rs, 1891,
..Thc Tariff Is a rax p

Major Mckinley declared IN n recent
speech, and hs challenges contradic.
ton from any quarter, that there is
not manufactured article in this
country to-day that Is manufactured
BY the American people uuder a pro-
tective tariff that has not been cheap
ened to the American consumer from
25 to 80 per cent" All the answer the
Democrats have TO make to this is the
same old croak, that the tariff Is Il
tax" and there the argument ends.
We have repeatedly asked the Every
Evening to explain TO the farmers OF
New Castle County. how binding Irvine
became so cheap, but 1t somehow
makes out to pass over our request,
as II 1t either did not hear us or heed
lis. 1t is continually telling the PEG.
pie that 'the tariff is tax" and it
ought to show wherein it Is tax. On
Imported binding Irvine, be fore the
Mckinley bill went iuto operation,
there was duty Of cent a pound
This was called q tax by the Demo-
Gratis, a duty by Republicans. The
Mckinley bill Increased this tax as the
Democrats call it, to u cent and half
a pound.
Everybody will recollect how the
Every Evening rang the changes of
taxation on the binding twino question
until some farmers actually thought
they would be ruined, especially II
everything else the farmer used was
to be taxed in the same proportion.
Senator Gray made eloquent speeches
In the Senate on the binding Irvine aud
tin questions, for the listening ears OF
Delaware farmers, and the Every
Evening reiterated the speeches. Oh,
the farmers, the poor farmers. here
binding Irvine was to be taxed higher.
the laborers would have to give up
their dlnuer pals, agricultural nipple
ments would kite away out of sight
in price. and the sweetness OF lie
would turn sour In the increased
price Of sugar, Such waiting as came
from the Democratic press was actual
ly distressing. Amongst the chief
walters was our contemporary the
Every Evening. The Mckinley bill
has gone into operation, but we see
nothing OF the terrible times predicted
Binding twine has fallen from 10 cents
down to s, but the Every Evening ha,
never yet had the courage to say:
Farmers, we beg pardon, we were
mistaken about the binding Irvine
matter" lturalimplements are
twenty-five per cent. cheaper and yet
the tariff is tax lin cans are cheap,
er, and yet no apology has been madt
to the consumers of tin for misleading
them. Itwould at least be maninese
on the part Of the Every Evening, Il
apologize and say frankly that it wa.
mistaken. hut instead OF doing SO, i
keeps up the cry that the tariff is
tax"

The REPUBLICAN Office is open to re-
ceive contributions for the Garfield
monument. Contributions from ten
cents to ten dollars and more will be
received II offered, and we sincerely
hope many will I've offered. The execu-
tive committee of citi2ans having the
matter in hand have come to the very
wise conclusion that monument cost
ing less than $1,000 or 5000 would
hardly be credit to Wilmington in
perpetuating the memory of 30 great
q man As Garfield.
To meet the amount required there
are some $500 on hand. leaving over
$4,000 still as the minimum amount to
he collected TO insure a monument.
The task left to the newspapers by the
committee is big one, and yet it is
indicative Of the faith Of an Intelligent
body OF men in the public press. With
out in the least censUring the action
of the committee, it would, perhaps,
have been MS we'll to have appointed u
committee TO call personally upon our
leading business firms for cOutrlbu-
lions. However, the press. so far as
tho REPUBLICAN part OF 1t Is concerned,
accepts the task and is ready to open
out its subscription list, Now let all
who revere the memory of the lament
ed Garfield come along with their sub
scripti0ns. Let us have that monu-
ment up In short order.
