AN ALUMINIUM STEAMBOAT.
1t Weighs but Half as Much as the Other
Boats.

1t Weighs but Half rs Much As the Other
Boats.
Some novel and interesting experiments
have recently been made on the Lake of
Zurich with a steamboat built entirely of
aluminium. which claims to be the first of
it, kind. The boat weighs only about half
a ton-viz.. about half the weight of IN or
binary boat Of the same size. 1t was built
at the works at Zurich, the metal having
been furnished by the aluminium works Of
S~haffhausen, where it is obtained by an cleo
trical process, the dynamos being driven
not by steam engines, but by turbines,
which utilize the water power of the cele-
brated falls of the Rhine, 30 that the boat
claims to be exclusively the product of
Swiss labor and power. 1t carries eight
persons, and, with petroleum engine of
only two-horse power, easily makes six
miles an hour. Aluminium not being sub
ieot to rust, the permanent color Of the
boat is a beautiful dull white, whilst the
chimney, being of polished aluminium,
shines like silver. The trial trips of the
boat were eminently successful, and it is
anticipated that the construction Of alu-
minimum steamers, having the same capacity
and only half the weight of the iron ones
now used on Swiss lakes, has a great future
before it.-London Standard.

The Presidents Travelling Expenses.

The National Democrat says that
Mr.. George Pullman has denied the
story that emanated from Chicago
that he was paying the expense Of
the Presidents trip. Both gentle.
men are entitled to the full credit Of
this denial, and we do not intend I'd
cast any doubt upon it when we
say, what will occur to every one
that if any gentleman other than
the President were paying the ex
penses he would inevitably deny it.
He would regard it as private
matter that he was justified in keep
ing a secret, even if it were necessa
ry to take some liberties with the
truth in so doing.
It also occurs to US as not improb,
able that the greater part of the ex,
pense of the tour was bourne by the
railroad companies. They got 8
great deal of advertising out of it
and the crowds that the president
drew furnished a large amount Of
local traffic.
Mr.. Pullman's denial of the Chi
cago story is not the only one. One
was sent from here in a special dis
patch to the Chicago Daily News
1t quotes ''a cabinet officer" whose
name it does not give, as saying
president Harrison expects to pay
the expenses of his trip. 1t was
taken for the recreation of himself
and family and to give HIM an op
portunity to meet the people, have
pleasant outing and incidentally
secure information as to the needs
of the country. The president never
was the,recipient of Improper gratu
| tiles"

PROSECUTED JEWS.

The Russian Jews recently arrived
in Boston relate pitiful stories of
outrages perpetrated upon them by
Russians. One lad who. had made
his escape after he had been SEN
fenced to Siberia says that the Jews
of Slobotky were ordered to vacate
their houses and leave, and that
many of them maddened and hur-
raised set fire to their own property
and burned it rather than have it
confscated by the Russians and that
for this one was suspended to tele-
graph post two hours. Others told
narrowing stories of the general
atrocities practiced upon the race by
Russian soldiers and of extremely
unjust laws in force against Jews.
Any Russian christian, it was stated,
who wished to possess himself of
the property of a Jewish neighbor
can obtain it by paying one-tenth of
its value to the mayor or govern
ment representative, who will there
upon give him authority to expell
the Jewish owner and install himself
as proprietor. It is quite an ordin-
airy occurrence for Jews house to
be burned over his head or Jew to
be stoned on the streets and it has
become common saying in parts of
Russia Kill Jew and pay twenty
roubles (S10)" No other punish
ment is ever inflicted for the murder
of a Jew, and even this fine is sell
dom imposed. Jews in the Russian
army are, it is said, compelled to do
the greatest drudgery and the most
degrading work. One of the immi-
grants said that the day before he
left some Jewish soldiers in the Rus
sian army, among them the son of
the narrator, wanted to rebel because
their families were maltreated by
Russian soldiers. The Jewish SOL
dlers we're all placed under arrest
and to purchase his sons release the
immigrant sold his house and all his
furniture.

MILLS AT STATEN ISLAND.

Recently Hon. r. @. Mills made a
speech in Prohibition Park, and a
large crowd from New York and
Jersey went down to hear him, and
the following is culled from the re-
port:
"a big decanter of clear spring
water occupied a prominent posi-
ton on the table in the center of
the stage, and back of the stage was
big map of the states where prohi-
bition is in vogue. They were
blazoned forth in gold and white.
Those that are denominated SWEET
were of an inky blackness. Texas
appeared on the map as big black
triangle. Mills, however, was not
disturbed over that.
Mills took for his subject the
Democratic creed, and when he
arose to speak, there were 1000 peo-
pie in the big tabernacle. Mills in
terested his hearers at the start by
apt Biblical quotations, which
showed him to be as familiar with
the works of the apostles as the ma
jority of his audience claimed to be-.
He did not say much about prohibi
ton, but he said a lot about old
fashioned Jeffersonian Democracy,
drawing many illustrations from the
Bible. Of course Mills did not let
an opportunity pass without some
reference to the subject which had
first brought him prominently before
the country at large. His reference
to the tariff, however, came in regu-
lar exposition of the Democratic
faith.
Government" SAID Mills, has
no more right 10 tell me what I
shall buy, and where 1 shall buy it
than 1t has to tell me what / must
eat or drink" This peroration
startled some of the prohibitionists,
who for a moment showed signs of
dissent. 1t was all remedied, how
ever, when Mills went on to say that
one of the fundamental doctrines OF
Thomas Jefferson was that right
would surely prevail. Then the
! prohibitionists cheered. There must
have been many Democrats in the
audience who listened with interest
to what Mills said, for they cheered
for Jefferson and Tilden and other
great leaders of the party as they
were mentioned They laughed oc-
casionally when Mills told some
droll story of Southern life to illus,
trate his meaning, and the ladies
smiled and applauded when he paid
the sex handsome compliments.

CONTRACT LABOR.

The Mckinley tariff bill was de-
clared a measure to protect Ameri.
can workingmen, that protection to
come by raising the duty on pro-
ducts of European pauper labor.
Among the articles of most common
use is tin. The tariff on it is tax
on every man in America. There
was no tin manufactured in this
country worth speaking of, the G. o.
p. declared tin manufactures would
spring up all over the country, and
furnish Lew field of employment
to American labor.
What has been the result? Let's
see. The Contract labor law" for
bids the importation of laborers
into this country under a previous
ly made contract to labor. A few
days ago the secretary of the treas
ury ruled that some tin plate work
ers who came over, that had been
contracted for abroad, to work in a
tin plate factory about to be estab-
lished were not debarred by that
law, as it was intended to protect
American labor and no American
were engaged in manufacturing tin,
and they landed.
The New Orleans New Delta,
commenting on these facts sums up
the situation in a clear and suscinct
manner in the following, which we
adopt. 1t says: GIN the first place
it is an admission that the claim
that American labor was to be pro-
tected by raising the tariff on tin
was false one, and that the whole
American people were taxed for
some other purpose. Its practical
working is that American citizens
have had a most onerous burden
laid upon them for the protection of
the ''pauper laborers" of Europe,
who the secretary of the treasury
has ruled may be imported under
contract in direct violation of pro-
hibitory law. This is the result of
the Republican party's pretended
love for the American workman, I'M
der guise Of which it laid tax on
every one of them for the benefit of
one or two men who desired to
start tin plate factories manned
with foreign workmen. And in or
der to balance the increase in the
revenues by making a correspond
ing reduction somewhere else, they
took all the duty off sugar, an Amer
lean article, in whose production
thousands of American citizens
were engaged, most of them Repub-
ican voters. But, sure of the blind
following of the deluded Southern
black man, it withdrew protection
to his industry in order to give it to
a few men who might contribute to
the campaign fund.

DEMAND An APOLOGY.

The recent attack of American
citizens in Durango, Mex, by Ro-
man Catholics while the former
were laying the corner stone for a
Methodist church, was not only an
insult to the protestant churches OF
the world, but an insult to every
American citizen, who believes IN
the Justice of the constitution which
guarantees to every citizen the
amalienable right to worship as he
pleases. 1t is said that the attack
was by the ignorant and supersti-
tious element of Mexican catholics,
but as no apology has been forth,
coming from the learned in the
church or from the church as an or
ganization it can only be presumed
that the Catholic church by its ST.
lence tacitly endorses the persecu-
ton of American citizens. Not a
word of disapproval have they spo-
ken, and just to teach them a lesson
an apology should be demanded. A
stone weighing a pound knocked
one Of the officiating devines, Rev.
Klgore, senseless before the police
dispersed the crowd, who say that
no services shall ever be held in the
church. We have no doubt but
what the Americans will go right on
with the church and if they are
again set upon by these minious Of
the Vatican, the American govern
ment should demand some better
excuse for it than was apparent OIL
the.occasion of the former attack.
When Uncle Sans children leave
his heathstone (the United States,
and are playing around in the neigh
bors yard, its all right for them tc
be governed by the regulations Of
the neighbours household, but he
should not allow them imposed
upon or brutally beaten up without
