Again that phenomenally fat hog that per-
iodically and peripAtetically fasts in a hay
stack as been found. This time it was in
Indiana once more. Notwithstanding that
the campaign was all over long ago the
veracious chronicler states positively that it
weighed $50 pounds. But he varies the
monotony of the story this load O. poles"
by solemnly avering that this hog, which
was fat enough to give Editor Dana a
spasm Of aversion, nimbly scaled that stack
and thea became too fatigued aud CO Mort
able to climb down again or fall off. This
does credit to the bold - of the dis
coverer's genius. If that hog is anything
like as immense as the story he'd be great
prize for dime museum.

Alabama Iron is Ahead.

Although the closing of twenty-three
blast furnaces in Pennsylvania and Ohio
had previously been explained as but one
part Of an agreement to reduce the output
and control the price of pig iron, since the
matter has attained political significance
because of the 10000 people thus thrown
out of employment at the very wosrt season
of the year, the Pittsburg Manu- dcturer
now comes forward with very plausible
story setting forth that the general shutting
down was compulsory because of the sharp
and effective competition Of southern fur
naces.
Manufacturers claim that the Alabama
product is rapidly displacing the product of
local mills, and greatly to their injury, Of
course. They assert that these furnaces 800
miles away manage to pay transportation
on their iron and then sell it in the Ohio
market for less than the home mills can af-
ford to handle it, Since last May they say
that over so, 900 tons of Alabama iron have
in that way displaced an equal bulk of the
home product. They say that a very fair
quality of Alabama iron has bsen quoted as
low as SIS IS per ton
Further they complain that southern rail-
ways take the long haul at much lower
rate than they can get on a short haul. That
is not unreasonable. Neither is the alleged
course Of southern roads in making very
favorable general rates to local furnaces.
They are developing tonnage for their own
benefit.
These furnace men claim that they can
successfully compete with any northern
market. Why not southern also2 Condi-
tions are about equal in both localities-ex-
cept as to the supply of ore. But they can't
compete. It's great pity. They will soon
want protection" against southern mills.
They really ought to be befriended.

Gable advlces from Ireland describe an
agrarian outrage in County Clare that was
positively fiendish in its barbarity. During
a recent night unknown Tindictive enemies
of farmer caught one of his cows and
actually skinned her alive. How they ex-
pected TO punish the farmer any more by
torturing the poor beast in that savage way
than by killing her outright is beyond
comprehension. That sort of cowardly
brutality does not tend to enlist public

Comparison of Election Customs


While Senator Evarts was holding forth
at the habitual length Of his elongated SEN
fences in fierce diatribe against the
alleged wickedness OF what he was pleased to
call the Mississippi method" of apportion-
ment the other day Senator Morgan man
aged to score rather telling point against
the New York senator's rabid republican
rant by suddenly asking him il he remem-
hered that the republicans in congress had
disfrnnchised both negroes and whites in
the District Of Columbia to prevent the in
jury of property interests. But the gentle
man with the mature hat and great poverty
Of periods firmly declined to discuss any
such deadly parallel
III the course Of his Enthusiastically
terse remarks. Mr.. Evarts raved about the
constitution in tones of frenzied fondnsss,
Among the many cruel things he said of
Mississippi was the crushing charge that
there is in the state prevalence Of sub
version of law" Infatuated by the force of
his own ferocity, he proceeded to draw
comparisons of southern depravity with
the various virtues of New York and New
England, distinctly enunciating that in the
gulf states there is nothing but desc-
Gated suffrage without life or circulation"
That sounds absolutely awful Possibly
the savage senator gets his ideas of active
life and animated circulation" from the
conflicts lately raging in Connecticut and
New Hampshire. There is no doubt of
their "life and circulation" Still, they
had rather "desiocated" appearance. Ap-
parently there was also "a prevalence of
subversion of law from an outside view

Fargo ". Northern Pacific.

The interstate commission
met in st. Paul yesterday to hear
the case of Fargo vs. The North
ern Pacific. The charge made is
that the Northern Pacific has made a lower
rate on sugar from the Pacific coast to st.
Paul and Minneapolis than it makes from
the same point to Fargo. and this i'll viola
ton of the long and short haul clause of
the interstate law. The Trans
continental association has been allowed by
the commission to put in force what are
known AS terminal rates. These rates are
for ~consignments from the Pacific coast to
the eastern termini of the roads, and are
made to meet competition with ocean
steamers, without any reference to inter
mediate points. Thu decision in the pres
ent case will have much to do with tie
traffic on all the transcontinental roads.
Commissioners Morrison, Veasy, Knapp
and Bragg are in the party. and after leay-
ing st. Paul. GO to Fargo. remaing there

will be at Spokane. to hear the case OF the
