Hon. A. L. CoNGER, of Akron, is the
Ohio member of the national Republi-
can committee, connected with all the
manufacturing trusts and combines of
that prosperous town and bowling
dervishe of McKinleyism. With all
this, he is loud for protection to olabor''
just as Blaine once was and as Nc
kinley now is-but he develops his
love for labor by cutting down the
wages of the men In his cutlery manu-
featuring works 1915 per cent. This cut
reduces the wages of 700 men. This
concern is one of the number that made
the popular BARLOW jackknife" sold at
% cents, but they now make an article
but little better and sell it at 80 cents,
because of the duty on the imported
article. The above comments from the
Youngstown Vindicator, tell the whole
story of protection; not only in Akron,
but everywhere else. The trust, owing
to higher tariff is now able to advance
prices on cutlery and having free trade
in labor they have labor at their mercy.
The men must either submit or be
turned adrift as tramps to join mil
lion other tramps, made by the same
internal policy.

THE Mckinley meeting at Lima
which was advertised as an immense
affair, turns out the same as the ones al
Carrollton and Steubenyille; very
tame. A dispatch from Lima to the
Chicago Herald says:
"The Mckinley meeting was tame af.
fair, and there is great dissatisfaction on
the part OF the Republicans over the fail
ure of more farmers to participate, and
they more than fear the result of the ALI
ance vote in November. In this county
as they have found elsewhere in the State
the Farmers Alliance is drawing largely
from the Republican party"

On Wednesday last the great house
of,Armour & Co,of Chicago,receiv at
the custom house an invoice of 2,723
boxes of tin plate. 1t weighed 100000
pounds, and it took asmall freight train
to transport it from the seaboard. The
Mckinley tax on the tin plate made the
total duties $4,000. Armour &. Co. en-
tered the tin plate under the drawback"
clause and will manufacture all the tin
plate into cans, fill them with meat, and
ship the meat to Europe and then re-
ceiye back from the government all the
duty paid on the tin plate with the ex-
ception of per cent of the duty, or $50.
All tin plate manufactured into
cans for meat for sale in the United
States will have to pay the regular
duty. Here is powerful object lesson
on the Mckinley tin tariff. First Ar
mour & Co. can buy no tin OF Ameri-
can manufacture. They are compelled
to import sll they use. The reported
tin plate factories are not in existence.
Now, just see how it works. The Amer

The wonderful Louis Hanback, OF
Kansas, who came to Ohio to give
moral character to the g. o. p. cam
paign, the same man who held McKin-
ley's Carrollton meeting up, after Nc
Kinley left, spent Saturday and Sunday
at Columbus, o., as the guest of the Re.
publican State Executive Committee
Saturday night he went on a bowling
drunk. Late in the night when the
high taxed product of the still began to
work itself into his g, o. p. venom, ne
got into an alteration with John Y.
Flanagan, o real estate dealer. Han
back was spelling for a fight and fol-
lowed Flanagan, striking him twice
The second blow caused the latter to
resent and he quickly landed on the
distinguished Republican orators nose,
cutting his face and telling him hard
to the marble floor Of the Neil house.
Several gashes were cut in bis head by
the fall. The patrol wagon conveyed
Hanback, to the scity prison. If a
Democrat had behaved in this unpretty
way what a loud and agonizing howl
the Rep. organs would have made over
it. But Hanback,, being a Republican
and a great oratorical helper of great
moral ideas, the episode is suppressed.

An Indian Legend That Sounds Like the
Biblical story Of the Flood.

An Indian Legend That Sounds Like the
Biblical story Of the Flood.
The American Indians, especially
those of the lake regions of southern
Canada, relate a curious tradition to
account for the fact that all lower
animals are dumb. In very, very early
times, they say, the father of all tribes
lived in a beautiful country over against
the rising sun. His form was perfect
and his face was handsome in the ex-
IRENE, his descendants being all superb
specimens of humanity. Knowing of
their accomplishments and being much
given TO fiattering one another, they
became very naughty and arrogant.
As a punishment for their bigotry the
Great Father warned the father Of the
tribes in a dream that a deluge would
be sent TO drown them off the face Of
the earth. In the dream which fore
warned the father or the tribes of the
great calamity impending, there was
presented 10 his visionary view the
form and outlines of a raft, which was
to be used in saving a remnant of this
bigoted people. In those days all ami
mails talked as men do; and, when the
father Of the tribes informed the beasts
of the field of his dream, and of his in
tentions concerning the building of the
great raft, they protested, declaring
their unwillingness to accompany him
on any such expedition.
But the mans superior intelligence
prevailed. He built the raft. and lol
had hardly finished when the great
flood came. The mans family and
pairs Of every beast took passage and
foated for many months on the sur
face of the deluge. The clouds cleared
away on the second day after the EN-
barkation, and for seventeen successive
moons the man used the sun as a guide.

against sailing TO the west, declaring in
one voice that they preferred steering

These murmurs had been going on

Of the man who had been holding q e
fort against this horde of creatures who
had the voices of men and the reason
of beasts, great spots Of dry land began
to appear. Finally this rudely con
structed ark grounded, and the man
and his family and the beasts were
again permitted to press the face of the
earth with their feet. But a great and
lasting calamity had overtaken the an
imals. For their murInurs against the
man while on the water. they were de-
