Over one hundred of the teachers of
this county are now here attending
the institute. They make an intel
ligent, pleasant looking audience. A
majority of them are young and
many of them give promise of lives
of usefulness. Like many other
classes ofindispensable workers they
are poorly paid. We never yet
heard of one amassing a fortune at
his profession. Notwithstanding
this they are patient and painstak-
ing in everything. We wish them a
pleasant and profitable week in our
midst.

Senator Faulkner.

We can see no reason why Senator
Faulkner should not be his own sue
cessor. We could give quite num-
Der of good reasons why he should.
Heis such an improvement upon the
usual order of West Virginia Sena-
tors that we owe it to ourselves to
return him for the reputation it gives
us. He has been faithful and eff
cient. and ranks well both as a work
er and talker. Heretofore, the men we
have honored been with that position
have endeavored to accomplish moth
ing save their own return. Senator
Faulkner has devoted himself entire
ly to the promotion of the interests
of his people, and to all seeming has
considered himself of secondary inn
portance. We owe him reward for
his faithful and Jealous fight against
the Infamous Force Bill. His work
in the campaign of 1890, gave us
control of this State. 5
These things deserve our gratitude,
and we can evince it in no better way
than by returning him to the posi-
tion he has so creditably filled. True,
the election is some time ahead, but
it will do no harm to think about
this matter Monroe Watchmdn.

aoue TarfTNotes.

The following are some tariff notes
from the Farmers Alliance Herald
of Cardington, Ohio:
Wool at Cardington, is rs cents
and % cents. Last year it was 30
cents and 80 cents. Mckinley is in
vited 10 explain.
Twenty-four pounds of graduated
sugar can now be bought for one dol
lar. Last year at this time it was
$1.44. The tariff is off sugar.
The tariff tin plate factories, upon
being investigated, prove to be run
by Welsh workmen, working Welsh
tin. High tariff always leads to high
prices and the importation of foreign
labor.
The capitalists are protected, while
the laborer has competition in thu
shape of five thousand Italians every
week who come in free for nothing
and live on carrion.

CASHIER MAPEL
Who was Shot by the Desperate Ohio
Bank Robber
Is Nephew ofOur Own Thomas MapeI.

Many of our readers know of the
desperate bank robbery committed
at Columbus Grove. Ohio, on the
morning OF August Sth. but proba-
bly, few of them know that the wound
ed cashier, Thomas j. Mapel, is a
nephew of our fellow citizen Thomas
Mapel, of Rosedale Simon Mapel,
the owner of the bank is the father
OF Thomas j. and brother of our
Thomas. Thus the desperate deed
is brought home to us.
A dispatch from Lima, Ohio, tells
the story as follows:
One of the boldest bank robberies
and murders ever perpetrated in this
section of the country occurred this
morning at Columbus Grove. town
of about 2000 people, twelve miles
north of here
Cashier L. j. Mapel had just open
ed the Exchange Bank, of which his
father is proprietor, and laid out
about $1,000 near the cashiers win
dow. About $50 man appeared
at the door with revolver in each
hand. He Immediately began shoot
ing. Cashier Mapel was shot twice,
once in the arm and once in the right
side. As he fell to the floor an old
farmer, William Vandemark, aged 60
entered the door, having come to get
his money for some hogs he had just
sold. The robber turned aud shot
him through and through. The old
man fell dead in his tracks.
A third man sat in the lobby oil
the bank paralyzed with fear He
was not molested. The desperate
then grabbed 81, 200 in greenbacks
showed them in the pockets of his
sack coat, and darted out the door
shouting, I'm a second Jesse
James" Quite a crowd had been
attracted by the sounds Of the
shots, but there was scattering
when the wild-eyed murderer APP
peared ON the street, having a gun
in either hand and shooting indis.
criminately.
The desperate is described as
being short and heavy set, with
full face and small black mus
tache. He wore a black alpaca
cap, black sack coat, blue pants with
white stripe and no vest He APP
peared to be about 80 or 35 years old
One of the bystanders, Henry Buck
failed to get out of the way fast
enough and was struck down by {
bullet from the rapidly-speaking re
volvers. The fellow ran to the out
skirts of the town and disappeared
in corn field.
A posse was quickly organized
and started in pursuit. Another pos
Sc started from West Cairo, and a
this time Sheriff O'Neill and Chic
of Police Aplas are organizing al
armed band here to assist in tn,
search. If found the fellow will b,

The Fatal Oil Can.

On Saturday last Retta McCor-
mick, the Ia year old daughter of
William G. Mccormick, who lives
between Cassville and Mt. Morris
attempted to build fire in the
kitchen stove with oil. An explo-
sion occurred and the blazing oil
was thrown all over the unfortunate
girl burning her in dreadful man
ner. Her injuries were thought to
be fatal but at last accounts she
was still alive. Mrs. Mccormick
had been very i'll for some time but
the screams and agony of her daugh-
ter caused her to spring from her
bed and attempt to extinguish the
flames, and no doubt but for her
help the girl would have been burn
ed to death on the spot.

AT Shelby, Ohio, yesterday, Major
Mckinley tried to explain to the
farmers at picnic that constantly
increasing war tariff in time of peace
is good thing for the agriculturist.
Let us earnestly try to believe that
the Major is an honest man; but
what blooming lunatic he must be.
Everything that the farmer uses
costs him more everything that he
produces sells for less.
He bears the burden, and, in addi-
ton, is forced to listen to those who
seek to persuade him that he is bene-
flied.
II is probable that we shall get a
fair price for our grain this fall, be-
cause Europe is short. But the price
would be much larger if our tariff
system had not driven France and
Germany to retaliate with heavy du-
ties upon American wheat and corn.
Our pork products for the same
reason, are practically excluded from
the greatest of European markets,
and our beef is subjected to all sorts
of restrictive inquisitions.
Meanwhile the bogus tin business,
the bogus pearl button business and
the bogus woollen business continue
to flourish for the benefit of the ia
vored few-Cincinndtz Enquirer.

HE MUST PAY.
That is the Farmer Must Pay More for
Articles Than They are Worth.
Cumberland Times.

Under the Mckinley bill agricul-
tural machinery is taxed in the
schedules act 45 per cent. That is
to say, the protected home manufac-
turer.is enabled to get nearly half
as much again for his goods as they
could be had for abroad.
This is shown in the fact that our
manufacturers sell their agricultural
machinery abroad at a heavy dis
count. The Engineering and Mn
ing Journal, of New York, publishes
regularly a list of articles which our
manufacturers sell abroad for less
than they will sell at here. 1t gives
the wholesale prices for Americans
and then the discounts off for for
eigners. Preceding the list are the
words: discounts are for wholesale
export only"
OF course, if our manufacturers
sell abroad with profit at the low
prices fixed by English competition,
they could, if they chose, do the
same here. The discounts given be-
low show, therefore, the extra profit
they make out of the American far
mer by meansaof the Mckinley tariff.

mats illustrated list, and is authen-
tic:

Business is about to take boom
in this country, and it is doing so in
spite of the Mckinley bill. The fact
is that for the first time in ten years
the country has a very large grain
crop and we have foreign market
for every bushel of it. The tariff on
wheat does not figure in the trans
action at all, because we have to
send our wheat abroad to sell it.
We do not know that the price of
wheat will be much higher, but it is
the brisk demand that encourages us.
Within the next few months the
railroads will be taxed to their ut
most capacity to carry grain to the
seaboard and the coal companies
will no doubt be somewhat restrict
ed in their operations for want of
cars. This will to large extent
bring back the gold that has been
recently taken to Europe and will
have a very good effect upon the
business of the country. Some fear
that the country will gboom to such
an extent that there will be re-
lapse and thus cause stagnation
within short time. Let US not pre-.
dict such dire result, but rejoice
in the coming prosperity. But while
we rejoice we can be amused at the
Republican claim that the bright
prospects are the result of their high |
protection tariff. Everybody knows
that the high tariff has nothing to
do with it. 1t is simply the result
