SEWING NEEDLES MADE FREE

Bscause They Are Not Manufactured b
This Country-A Companion with tn
Plate which Can b Made Here.
Do you know why 70 put sewing needles on
the free listl We did II upon the great under
lying principle Of protection because We didn't
manufacture them Ut home.-McKinley, In New
York
Why, then, esteemed sir did you put duty on
tin plate, which was not produced In this coun'
try any more than needles. In order to have
been consistent you should have clapped duty
Of one hundred per cent. on needles, and then
We would hear the Utica Herald assuring US
that In the course Of . couple OF years needles
would be produced In this country and that the
duty was grand good thing; and We would see
American needles distributed among the dele.
gates to republican conventions amid the howls
Of the faithful
The Utica Observer puts the above as
a real poser. 1t essays to believe that
because needles were put upon the free
list for the reason that we did not man
ufacture them at home, therefore tin
should have been placed upon the free
list for the same reason. 1t might as
we'll be said that as tea Is free because
we do not produce 1t, therefore tin
should be free, as we did not six months
ago produce IT, The manufacture OF
needles has been attempted in the
United States and has failed; and it was
represented to the committee on ways
and means that no rate Of duty, how
ever high, would encourage Its com.
mencement, growth and progress. Tho
duty on needles was purely revenue
duty, a democratic duty, and was,
therefore, paid by the consumer, and
largely by the poor and underpaid
working women employed as seam
stresses, shirt-makers, etc. As the rev
enue was not required, and the bill was
framed upon protective principles, to re-
lieve the people, sewing needles were
put upon the free list.
Not SO with tin. We had demonstrated
in this country over and over again that
we could successfully manufacture tin
plate. That was no longer experimental.
The only need was sufficient duty. II
was made to appear to the committee
on ways and means that we had pig
tin in the United States which would
be developed If a duty was given SUI.
ficient to encourage our people in the
business of making tin, and thus the
increased duty. That it was justified
is already shown by the fact that
twelve tin making establishments ara
either erected or in process Of erection
capable Of making one-sixth Of all the
tin we consume, which is about $4,000
TONS This has been accomplished in
anticipation Of the increased duty, which
J does not 60 into effect until July lst
J next.
, The trainers Of the bill believed that
needles could and would not be made
in this country, and were SO advised
Nobody was proposing to make them.
, They believed that tin could be, would
, be, and, in fact, knew had been, and SC
, made needles free, and increased the
, duty on tin in the interestof the Ameri
I can mines and American labor.
: Whenever II shall appear that needles
can be made in this country successfully
r by adequate duties the protection party
Q will give it.

The Most Profitable Kind Of Exports.

There is very little profit to any peo-
pie in the export of crude products. The
exporting nation must pay all the costs
of transportation to market. Trans
portation charges on farm products,
iron ore, coal and similar crude prod
ucts would leave but beggarly profit
to their producers if they had to be car
ried for sale across the ocean. This
truth was clear to the founders of the
government, who had witnessed the ills
incident to the exclusive production of
raw materials in the early history Of
the colonies. To change this deplorable
state of affairs was their desire, so they
instituted the American system Of pro-
tecting and encouraging manufactures.
Items like the following from the Iron
Age of May 81 are the result:
LOCOMOTIVES FOR EXPORT. = The Rhode
Island locomotive works Of Providence, r. L,
recently shipped twelve locomotives from their
works three Of them being for export to South
America The number included three ten.
wheel locomotives, with lsxe4 inch cylinders
s4inch boilers aud 54-inch wheels, for the Bos.
ton & Maine railroad The total weight Of the
engines loaded is l0a 400 pounds and the weight
Of the driver 5000 pounds
This is the profitable form in which
to export our wheat and iron. Our owl
working people have received tn,
money paid for making these locomo
.ives, W lille the producers of coal ant
food hav e saved ocean transportation
charges and disposed of their product
] at the locomotive works at for bette
prices than they could have Hoped 70

RIa Q in Farming Lands.

Nothing is more evident than that the
west-particularly the northwest-is on
the eve of q great business revival.
And, as if to even things up, it looks as
though the agricultural interests
which were the first to decline when the
hard times Of the past few years came
upon us-were to be the first to revive.
1t is certain that the great country ly-,
ing west of Minneapolis never before
promised so well as now. Taking North
Dakota as an illustration, it can be con-
fidently predicted that revival of pros
perity is at the door. All kinds Of farm
products are bringing a good price, and
the outlook for great crops-not alone
of wheat, but of everything raised by
the farmer-never was so promising.
In the last few years, too, owing to the
low price Of wheat, farmers have gone
more or less into stock, and almost be-
fore they have realized it themselves
their sheep and cattle and horses have
multiplied until the stock interest has
become gigantic one. And with this
and the prospect now opening up, the
price of farming lands has begun to ad-
vance. 1t will only be a few years till
all the available agricultural land will
be settled; when once the tide again
turns toward the northwest the states
containing these farming lands will be
filed with class of people who will go
to stay and go also to prosper. The re-
suit will be doubling, trebling or
quadrupling of prices, and the man who
has retained his land through these
years of depression will have his re-
ward. -Minneapolis Tribune, May -.

Frank Braun. Dead.

The entire city was shocked, Saturday evening,
TO learn that Frank Braun had just died. 1t
seems that Tuesday morning OF last week
Frank arose from bed feeling ill., chilly and still
and pain about the lungs, and remaining about
the house that forenoon rested upon :; bed in
the afternoon, and that evening Dr. Quick was
called. But Frank got no BETTER ii becoming
constan more lilcult for lm to breathe the
breath beng short, and the pam more severe,
the doctor pronouncing the difficulty plcurisy,
but thought there was no danger. Saw him
Saturday morning ana thought that lie was
doing well, and about noon went into the
country and returning in the evening was
dumbioundcd to learn that Frank was dead
DR.. TruaX had been called that morning and
Thought the proper course was being pursue d.
In fact Doctors TruaX and Quick were there to-
gethcr to see Frank.
1t seems that when Frank was 20 years of
age he had very severe run of lung fcver,
winch left his lungs and health impaired and that
six years ago he had another severe siege when
he raised IL great deal of blood, Sc, from the
lnngs, but finally pulled through, and although
not robust, Mrs. Braun says to TIE TIMES that
Frank seemed to be growing more robust OF late,
and they were congratuating themselves upon
this fact--and right down 10 the last day before
This fatal attack, there was 10 idea OF him
becoming ill,-much less dying so suddenly!
Frank was born the 10th of March, 1855, at
! Calumet, Fond Du Lac county, Wisconsin
! making him but sc years and five days of age
Deceased removed with his parents from Wis
