HOW CLEVELAND INJURED EVERY
AMERICAN INDUSTRY.

Under this heading the Manufac.
turer's Record mentions some Is
steamers Advertised to sail from one
Southern port for European ports, and
it is undoubtedly good thing 70, the
producers of grain that it finds new
avenues for shipment, as any increase
in tho means of transportation in.
evitably leads to lessened cost OF
carriage; cost which in the matter
of grain amounts to a large percent
age Of its value.
But all of these vessels are foreign
vessels. Their value, which Is prob>
ablya quarter of q million dollars,
will (nnless the owners of the lines
have staked some American railroad
presidents and directors with stock)
pay dividends to foreigners, who may
or may not invest their savings here !;
they employ foreign captains and
crews and rs far as possible buy their
supplies aud have their repairing done
at foreign ports. II only two or three
Southern Representatives had voted
for the Farquhar Shipping bill the
shipyards at Baltimore and at New
port News would now be full of work.
Not only the quarter of million dol.
lars represented by the feet mentioned,
but several million dollars for other
fleets, would have been distributed
among American mechanics and
laborers, and tho wages earned by
them would increase the money in
every truck growers pockets from
New Jersey to the Mexican line.
When the Cleveland Administration
committed the Democratic party to
the British interests for the sake Of
British contributions to its campaign
funds, it did every American industry
an incslculable injury.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
In his annual message President
Harrison states that the work Of the
State Department during the year has
been characterized BY an unusually
large number Of important negot,a-
tons, and diplomatic results of 4
notable and highly beneficial char
actcr.
The Rering Sea question was finally
settled by Great Britain agreeing to
join with the United States in prohib.
iting the catching Of moro than $500
sealsk,ns between June Is, 1891, and
May l, 1892.
Germany, Denmark, Italy, Austria
and France have opened their ports
to American hog products; and re-.
ciprocal arrangements have been
concluded with Brazil, Spain aud San
Domingo. Like negotiations with
other countries are expected to be
concluded before the close OF the
year.
The Chilean outrage is to be con-
doned il the government Of that
country makes ample and prompt
reparation. Otherwise, otherwise.
Tho Nicaragua canal is justly re-
gsrded a. the most important subject
now connected with the commercial
growth and progress Of the United
States; and the President recon-
mends that the United States guar
antee the payment OF q 3 per cent.
construction bond to be issued bv the
company ~ it may need funds to
complete the canal.
There are conclusive evidences that
the new tariff has created several
great industries which will, within a
few years, give employment to several
hundred thousand Am ,rioan working
men and women. Under its operation
tho total value of our foreign com.
merce dnring the past year was greater
by over $l0O,O00,0OO than ever bel fore,
and even the free imports increased
over $l1S,O00,0Oo during the same
time, while our merchandise export,
increased about *63,00O,OOO during
the same period. Tho tariff is there,
fore operating very satisfactorily.
The producers of silver, the message
states, "are entitled to just considera.
ton, but they should not forget tina.
the government is now buying and
putting out of the market what is the
equivalent Of the entire product of
our silver mines. This is more than
they themselves thought OF asking a
few years ago. l believe it is the
earnest desire Of great majority OF
the people, as it is mine, tina. full
coin should be made Of silver just as
soon as the cooperation Of other ma.
tions can be secured and a ratio fixed
that will give circulation equally to
gold and silver. The business of the
world demands the use OF both metals
but do not see any prospect of gain
but much OF loss by giving up the
present system, in which full use is
made Of gold, and large use of silver,
for one in which silver alone will cir
culate. Such an event would be a,
once fatal to the further progress of
the silver movement. lSimetallism is
the desired end, and true friends OF
silver will be careful not 10 overruu the
goal aud bring in silver m,nomc.al.

PERSPECTIVE.

sometimes tornadoes, and the structuN
must be constructed so as to withstand ths
shocks which it is liable to receive. A brisk
wind travels at the rate OF about twenty
hive miles an hour, a strong wind at the
rate of thirty miles an hour, high wind az
forty, storm at fifty, violent storm at sixty,
hurricane at eighty, violent hurricane ss
hundred miles an hour. From this il
will be seen that the wind pressure is an
important item which must be carefully
considered and calculated in designing any
important structure. In q prairie country
a high building or roof should be avoided.
as it offers too large surface for the press
ure of the wind, which in a storm is shout
eighteen pounds to each square foot Of sur
face, neither should the building have wide
projections of cornices for the same reason,
as it would be in danger of being unroofed
at any time during 4 storm unless extra
and expensive precautions have been taken
in construction, IL follows, then, that q
low building with but slight projections Of
cornices is best adapted to prairie coun-
try, as being most economical and safe.
The cottage shown in the illustrations
represents a sensible, conveniently ar
ranged and substantially constructed cot
tage or prairie farm house in the Queen
Anne style of architecture. The founda-
ton walls are of brick laid in ceynene
mortar, plastered on the outside with
cement, and the cellar has concrete floor
three inches thick. The sills arc built OF
two pieces of plank, one, Sx6, laid fiat upon
the walls and securely anchored in place
by wrought iron bolts set in the brick
work, the other piece, 2xs is set edgewise
upon the wall aud securely spiked to tho
plank beneath. The studding Is notched
on thelower end to come flush with the
outside of the brick wall and sill and
spiked to both pieces, thus securing tho
framework of the entire building from be
ing torn from its foundations by the most
violent storms,

The framework should be hollow, with
tongued and grooved sheathing nailed on
diagonally. In the cottage shown the
sheathing was covered with waterproof
building paper and clapboarded with six
inch beveled siding. The roof is also
sheathed and covered with waterproof
paper and shingled. Single lath should

quented by high winds, as the shingles
bend under the pressure Of the wind be-
tween the laths, and the rain or snow Is
driven into the building.
The building is one aud one-half stories
in height. The main roof over the second
story chamber extends down over the front
of the parlor, thus forming in a most
economical manner n small veranda
which protects the front entrance. If de-
sired, in the winter time this porch could
be inclosed with glazed window sash as an
additional protection. The staircase hall
extends through the middle of the build
ing, with door at the rear leading to the
yard. Upon the right of the staircase
haliis parlor 12x16, lighted By a window
in front and rear, and two windows in the
sides. 1t is heated by CRATE designed for
burning soft coal-or it is so arranged that
stove can be used if desired. In the front,
at the left side of the hall, is the dining
room, 13I15, with windows in front and
on the side. 1t is also provided with an
open fireplace and CRATE for burning coal
The dining room communicates with the
kitchen through the pantry. The kitchen
is connected with the main hall by door

Afraid of the Wight Doctor"

Law, sab, he jes did miss cotchin' me

The speaker was an ancient NANNY"
who in the past sixty -four years had nursed
eleven of her own children, and no one
really knows how many white ones,
and in the mind of every one she had in
stilled her belief in might doctors"
She had been startled by nearly running
against reporter as she hurried home
about o'clock the other evening. He re-
assured her that he was no might doctor, /"
but plain, inoffensive citizen, and as che
left him he pondered upon the strange
superstition which, in spite of thirty years
of comparative enlightenment, still hovers
in the minds of colored folks of the older
school.
Though no one Of them has ever been
kidnapped in this way, most of them have
had very narrow escapes. almost as narrow
as that of old ''aunty." and every one has
had friend disappear in this way. The
method of their capture is about as fol-
lows, according to their belief: The night
doctor meets them in lonely spot, and,
without a word, claps peculiar plaster
over their faces. This stiles their cries,
and ultimately suffocates them. Their
bodies are then carried to the medical col
lege, where they are dissected and valu.

ored people particularly.
Where did this belief originator Per
haps in darker Africa, in days when an.
cestors of the race in this country were
changed from Africans to Americans
through the medium of the slave ship,

explanation is to be had in studying the
effects upon the colored people in this

is abundantly lighted by two large win
dows. In addition to the pantry the kitchen
is provided with large store room-an
essential feature, especially in farmhouse.
1t is also fitted up with portable range
and suitable iron sink. In the second
story are three good sized chambers, with a
closet for each. At the front of the hall
in this story is large closet which may
be used as trunk room or linen closet
The side walls and ceilings throughout
are hard finished on two coats Of brown
mortar and lath. The steps and risers OF
the stairs are Of yellow pine; newels, rails
and balusters Of ash; all other woodwork
of white pine; all painted in two coats
both exterior and interior. This building
can be erected, under favorable circum-
stances, in thoroughly substantial manner

ira plumbing, cesspool, ETC., would cost
