Last Friday night the Alpha Sig
ma Literary Society gave an excel.
lent entertainment to q crowded
house. The program was carried
out as follows:
Mr.. Frank King, of Cincinnati, o.,
gave the address Of welcome and
for one Of his age 1t was a superior
address. Then came one of the
best Productions Of the evening, an
GRAFTON by w. ID. Malcolm, of Uceba,
entitled "chains." This was full of
good advice for old and young and
was well delivered by its author.
The next was defamation, "The
First Sunset" delivered by the
young orator, w. d. HammOntree,
Greenback. Resolved, That the
Flirt is a greater nuisance to the
human race than Is the Mosquito,
was the subject discussed by Dead
rick Parker, of knoxville, on the
affirmative and Linton Tedford, Of
Maryvllle, on the negative. Mr..
Parker said some very witty things
but at the same time gave some
very serious thoGghts on his side of
the question. Mr.. Tedford then
came on the stand, and in his q ace
full and easy manner kept the house
in an uproar of laughter the whole
time he was speaking.
j. r. Burchfield, of Maryville,
then gave the young men good adj
vi on the subject, "rhe Choice of
an Occupation" Mr.. Ralph Lever
ing, Maryville, discussed "The Eco.
nomic Aspect of the Prohibition
Question:" in an interesting and
able manner. His speech showed
that he lad thoroughly studied hi
subject. In the absence of Rev

the benediction. Capt. w. o.

FalIacious Proof of Mckinley Prices

AS we predicted, the "McKinley
prices" humbug quickly died as
soon as the election was over.
Here and there Frec-Trade paper
in general terms feebly reitera es
its ante.electiOn falsehOOds, and a
few, very few, continue to specify
articles on which the duty has
raised the price. No doubt they
spend much time in searching
through lists of articles to find
something that will bear out their
absurd assertions, and in their des-
peration are driven to the absurd
device quoting imported articles
such as cigars, foreign wines. i'm
ported laces, and pointing to them
as proof of the truth of the McKin-
lev prices SANDERS. They effect to
believe that their absurd charges
have been made good when they
have shown that the price of Hava-
ma cigars has advanced, when the
fact is that there never was any
controversy over the immediate
effect that the Tariff would have on
imported goods. If an American
insists upon consuming foreign
manufactures, Protectionists insist
upon his paying something for the
privilege. No intelligent friend of
the Tariff denies that the Mckinley
bill temporarily raises the price of
imported goods. The object, of
course, is to induce Americans to
use American goods instead.
What the mckinley prices" hum
bug meant was that prices of do.
nestle products, from which the
wants of the great majority of our
people are exclusively supplied
have greatly advanced. To show
that the price of Havana cigars has
advanced is merely clever attempt
to deceive the unthinking ard tC
dodge the real issue.-EcOnomist.

Who Pays for Cheapness?

When the workihgman is tempt
ed bs the Free-Trade cry for cheap
err goods, he should sit down and
think out where the cheapness is
going to come from. The following
extract from the Dry Goods Chron-
icle of January 3, which by the way
was not written with any thought
of the Tariff, but to illustrate some
thing far removed from either Pro-
lection or Free-Trade, will assist
him in tracking the cheapness to
its final resting place on the Shout
ders of labor:
Wealthy (Free-Trade) customer
to retail merchant: "YOur prices
are altogether to high. If you
want my trade you must sell cheap
err" Retail dealer to jobber: "You
must sell me at lower prices; my
best customers complain about the
high prices of my goods. ! must
buy cheaper or lose my best trade"
Jobber to manufacturers: sunless
you quote me at lower figures, l
shall be obliged to transfer my pa
tronage to another house." Manu-
facturer to fOreman: "We can't
place our goods on the market at
present quotations. Cut down the
wages of the help twenty per cent?
Can the workingman afford to
buy cheapness at such a price,
