Heiress Apparent To The Crown.

Heiress Apparent To The Crown.
The probably fatal illness of
Queen Liliuokalani revives the bitter
iealousies between the English resi-
dents and the native and American
elements. Native. distrust Of the
English dates back to 1843, when
Lord George Paulet hoisted the
British flag over the islands and
claimed them as British territory,
until his acts we're disavowed by the
Home Government.
The heiress prospective to the
crown is Princess Victoria Kajulani
Cleghorn, only child of the late
Princess Likelike, sister of Queen
LiliuokaIani. Her father is the Hon.
Archibald Cleghorn, long collector
general. Mr.. Cleghorn has very
judiciously placed his daughter IN.
der suitable instruction in England.
She is very attractive young lady OF
nearly sixteen The Princess IS
looked upon as wholly under Eng
lisil influence.

Why IS III

Why is it that politics are get
ting relegated as an occupation to
an inferior class of men as compared
with the politicians of former years.
Only now and then does q really
superior man appear in our political
ranks We hear the complaint on
all sides that a man of genius or OF
fine education can not succeed in
politics, and it is said the change
has come from corruption in politi-
cal affairs, and the degradation of
social standards. Would it not be
nearer the truth to say that the
reason is not that society has be
come more corrupt than formerly
but that politics have been found to
be so distinctly an inferior pursuit
to commerce and industry that po-
litical fights are left to smaller men.
Superior men are able to do better
in other callings which require lar
ger capacity and more disciplined
intelligence, and the vital interest
is transferred from the field Of poll
tics, where it never belonged, to
the field of production, where it al
ways was, in reality. What poll
teal CONFUSION this country has
every four years. Orators crate,
conventions convene, and such a.
gale of excitement sweeps over the
country that it seems as if it would
destroy everything before it. Then
one of the candidates is chosen, and
everybody goes back to his business
as if nothing of great Importance
had occurred. But if such a con-
vulsion stirs up the business world
it is followed by prolonged pros
tration, which is felt by nearly
everybody. The politics of coun-
try are of occasional and temporary
Importance, while the industries are
Of constant and eternal value. The
very devotion Of a people to indus
try rapidly tends to make men dis
regard politics, and, indeed, the
people of this country have SO far
advanced on the road to enthrone-
ing industry as supreme, that with
in the last five years industrial
questions are taking the place of
political ones. Our contentious are
now as to wages, trusts and taxa
tions. Industry concerns itself
with the masses and not with the
glory of few; it furnishes men
with happy homes and it aims at
elevating the whole of mankind.
But politics could be freed OF its
worser features. It is one OF the
misfortunes Of the times that the
standard of men who are candidates
for Offices of trust has been constant
" falling.

Is TmpIate Manufactured In America?

Is TInpIate Manufactured In America!
1t has been the boast of Democrats
that tin could not be made in this
country, and that the specimens
shown in the Ohio campaign were
made for campaign use only. Am
erican capital does not build plants
and engage workmen for sentiment.
When mandatory is started 1t IS
fair to presume that capital seeks in
vestment and that the mills have
been built for profit. The two firms
engaged in manufacturing tin in
Philadelphia are in the business be-
cause it pays and because it promises
to develop into one of great magnl-
tude. They are shortly to be joined
by third firm, and not only will tin
be made in large quantities, but it
will be superior to that imported.
The plate brought from Wales is
of one size. The plate made in
Philadelphia can be furnished at any
desired length. In fact, the manu-
facture in Wales is primitive, and
Yankee ingenuity is at work to beat
the Welchman at his own game and
to turn out both terne, which is roof
ing tin, and the bright sheets, which
are used for culinary utensils, at a
price lower than any rate that has
yet been known.
1t is hard for the party OF free
trade to come down from its high
horse, but facts are facts, and any
doubling Thomas can see the pro
cess of the manufacture of American
tin with his own eyes if he cares to
do so. If the Mckinley bill has
done nothing else it has opened up a
new industry, which will develop the
tin mines of America, give employ
ment to thousands of workingmen
and add immensely to the wealth of
the couRtry. The thousands of dol
lars that have gone into foreign
pockets will be kept at home. All
this is not mere theory The work
has already begun. not only in Phila-
delphia, but in half dozen other
places, notably at Apollo, Pa, where
the Pittsburg Electro Plating Com
pany is shipping tin plates by the Car
load, from works with capacity OF
six tons a day. Tin has come to
stay.
The work so far accomplished is
beyond the expectations of the most
sanguine friends of the American
policy of protection. It was not te
be expected that the actual manufac
ture of tin would come so quickly
upon the heels of the passage of the
Mckinley bill, but the industry i
already an established fact. In the
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1891-10-15

face of these facts it is difficult to
treat the Democratic denials with
anything but contempt Tin is here
to stay, and the cry that is resound-
ing through Ohio will become the
rallying cry of the nation in the
great election next year.

There is some very active work being done
on the ships now building at the Cramps yard,
in Philadelphia, for the new navy, according to
the statements Of Mr.. Nixon, one of the assist
ants at that establishment, who was at the NAVY
Department today. He said:
THE first frame will probably be raised on
the triple screw ship today if nothing unfore-
seen occurs. After that is up We are ready to
rush the Others along in a hurry. The best ad.
vance is being made on the armored cruiser
number two, the New York, 8, 100 tons.
She now has all the appearances Of a ship

ing being in place. She is getting into such a
shape that We are looking forward to date for
getting her of the ways into the water
unless there are some faults in the
castings or other such unavoidable DELAYS. She
ought to be launched in four months should
say that one-haf of her hull work has been
done. The two battle ships are, of course, not
SO far advanced
Their keel blocks have beer laid and we shall
start very soon on the first steel work. There
are now about z. 500 men employed on these
four ships, but We shall increase this number
to 1000 just AS soon the work progresses
far enough to give that many men something

1T MAY BE A HOMICIDE.
A Stone Battle In Alley Results seri-

Stone Battle In an Alley Results Seri-
ously.
A young colored man known a. kid" Active
who lives in Georgetown. is at present occupy
ing q cot in Freedman's Hospital. He is suf-
fering from wound of the
face, which was inflicted with a
stone alleged to have been thrown by a
companion named William Hall. who is known
among his companions rs Billy" Hall II is
thought that the stone was thrown with force
enough to have caused injury to the brain,
from the effects Of which the patient is likely
to die.
The trouble occurred this morning about
$50 o'clock in Queens alley which opens on
18th street between l. and NJ streets northwest.
Both Hall and Active were employed as cart
drivers by Michael Shea. the contractor. but
owing to the wet weather they could not take
their teams out this morning.
GENERAL FIGHT.
They remained in the alley about the stable
with other drivers and entered into a number
Of discussions about everything in general
until angry words passed between some mem
bers of the party and fight followed.
Stones were hurled for some minutes and
Active and Halls brother became engaged in 4
personal encounter, SO some of the negroes
state.
'Billy" Hall separated them and then Active
and another driver turned upon him. He did
not want to fight and asked men in a black
smith shop in the alley TO drive them away.
but the men, not caring 10 become involved in
the trouble. declined to interfere and the
fight proceeded.
BILLY" Hall was known as a peaceable and
inoffensive young man and a number of times
he told the others that he did not want to fight.
HALL THREW STONE.
They, however, kept up the fight and finally
he was forced to protect himself, which he did
by throwing the stone.
The missile landed against Active's nose and
he fell to the concrete pavement apparently
lifeless. Hall then walked quietly away and
none of the bystanders made an effort 10 APP
prehend him or give the alarm.
Inc injured young man was carried into the
blacksmith shop, where he was kept until the
arrival of the third precinct patrol wagon.
when he was taken to the hospital.
When he arrived in the hospital he was still
unconscious.
This afternoon the patient appeared TO be
paralyzed on one side and he was still uncon-
scious. His mother visited him at the hospital
LOOKING FOR HALL
Az day long the police have been searching
for Hall. but at 2 o'clock he had not been APP
him if he returned home this evening
The police were unable 10 learn much Of how
the affair happened, as the negroes who'were
present were apparently friendly TO Hall as
well as 70 the injured man and they did not
want to implicste their other friends.
HALL ARRESTED LATE TODAY.
Later this afternoon Sergeant Harbinson ar
rested Hall and locked him up a charge of
assault and battery with intent TO kill. The
prisoner claims that he acted in self defense
he Ii held to await the result of Actives injury.
