Milwaukee News: The Mckinley bill
restricts every market, except the home
market. in respect to all our products ex-
eept our breadstufs, which other countries
cannot do without and live; but accord
ing to Mr.. Blaine, it does not afford 4
market anywhere for an additional bus |
of grain or Il barrel of pork raised by our
farmers. Its exaetions in favor of sim
gle class, the manufacturers, have incersed
all countries against us, made them do
what they could to close their markets
against us. 1t has made clothing and
every other thing except sugar dearer, but
it has not increased wages.
Trouble has broken out between the
white and colored population at Charles

Edison's Latest.

II expect TO receive telephone mes
sages from the sun before nett Christ
mas" said Inventor Edison a few days
ago. IL don't mean" he continues
that any son OF the sun will do the
familiar Hello, hello IL that you,
Tom 2 but I do expect TO hear the
boom and bang and general hubbub
that we know TO be constantly going
on rmong the mighty elements there
This II the most audacious thing
that the wizard of invention ever at
tempted. IL is on n level with the
idea OF communicating with the sup
posed inhabitants OF Venus and Mars,
and the trust beQuest OF $4,000 left
last summer by French nun. 10 be
given TO the person who shall discover
such means OF communication.
The mountainous regions OF New
Jersey are rich in iron ore, and Edi-
son II the owner Of a peak. about
mile in diameter AT the base, which IL
supposed to be an almost solid mass
OF iron. For many months the great
inventor has been working TO convert
this mountain into a huge telephone.
The common telephone IL made by
running a wire around the top Of a
magnetic bar and this. when charged
with electricity, enables u to register
the sounds that come In contact with
IL.
Edison has wound many miles OF
wire around the top OF his iron noun
tain. forming an inductive circuit,
which will produce powerful electric
currents. This 10 the means by which
he expects to hear explosions caused
by the gaseous outbursts Ia the sun,
and the gigantic telephone is % near
ly completed that IL will probably be
ready for test within two or three
weeks. Physicists, generally. have no
faith in the practicabiiity OF the solar
telephone. But Edison Is something
OF q physicist himself, and his novel
experiment will at least be awaited
with much interest.

THY WILL BE DONE.

Not in dumb resignation
We lift our hands on high;
Not like the nerveless fatalist
Content TO trust and die,
Our faith springs like the eagle
Who sores TO meet the sun,
And cries exnlting unto thee,
o Lord. thy will be done!
When tyrant feet are trampling
Upon the common veal,
Thou dost not bid us bend and wrlthe
Beneath the iron heel.
In Thy name we assert our right
By sword or tongue or pen,
And even the headsman's ak may flash
Thy message unto men.
Thy will! 1t bids the weak be strong;
1t bids the strong be just;
No lip TO fawn, no hand 10 beg,
No brow to seek the dust.
Wherever man oppresses man
Beneath Thy liberal sun,
o Lord. be there Thine arm made bare,
Thy righteous will be done!

Makes the
Weak Strong

The marked benefit which people in run
down or weakened state of health derive
from Hoods Sarsaparilla, conclusively proves
the claim that this medicine "makes the weak
strong" 1t does not act like stimulant,
imparting fictitious strength from which there
must follow reaction of greater weakness
than before, but in the most natural way
Hoods Sarsaparilla overcomes that tired feel
ing, creates an appetite, purifes the blood,
and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve,
mental and digestive strength.

Free sugar has made the American

Whether it was the removal of the
tariff on sugar, or the war between
sugar combines that has reduced the

fact that that necessary commodity has

sary articles that are intimately
associated with sugar in their uss aud
employment. We mean tin and glass.
The price of tin is three dollars "a box
higher now than it was before the new
tarin law was enacted, and the price
of glass fruit jars is frem % to 50 per
cent. higher, which advances more
than counterbalance the reduction in
sugar in tile cost of preserving and
canning fruits. Aud the burJeusJme
effect of this is not only felt at the

felt throughout the year by the entire
