Having learned from previous lessons
how both the ten tribes and the two, with
but few exceptions, wander from God and
worship idols, we are now for few weeks
to consider Gods efforts to win them beck
TO Himself by His servants the prophets
And we begin with the first Hebrew
prophet or missionary ever sent to the Gen
tiles.
l. "Now the Word of the Lord came
urto Jonah Che son Of Amittai, saying"
He prophesed about 500 years before
Christ, and is one of the earliest, perhaps
the very first, Of the so called prophets
whose writings exist
O. "Arise, no to Nineveh, that great city,
and cry against 1t; for their wickedness is
come up before nc"
Nincveh was on the Tigris, nearly 400
miles from Canaan. Its walls were about
60 miles in length and 100 feet high, with
1900 towers, each 200 feet high. According
to chapteriy, II, there We're 100, 0OOlittle chill

We reluctantly ascrlbe any sinister

knows that the P, w. & B. 8 guarantee

amentable and inexcusable Ignorance by

mind of q sensible, earnest and impartial
man. There is nothing difficult or com

point to command the attention Of man

twelve hours, namely, the financial
standing Of the p, W. & 3. railway.
The state holds mortgage on road
which has not paid, which has been

from which, until lately, no income was
derived by the state. The state
has no business with a railway

THE TIN STEAL

We have positively liableinformation
that one Of the largest purchasers Of tin
plates in this country has lately signed \
contract with foreign manufacturers for
his supply Of tin plates with the new
duty deducted from the price. The for
eigner does pay the tariff, doesn't he2-
American Economist.
It is difficult to treat such statements
as the above calmly One only Of three
things can be truthfully said of the
statement that the foreigner pays the tax
1 1t is lie
2 IL is steal.
It shows that the duty on tin plate
was not necessary,
The duty on tin plate under the Nc
Kinley bill is 2 cents per pound and the
normal price Of tin without duty Is about
3 cents per pound; hence. II the exporter
reimbursed the importer for the Gus
toms charges, the exporter would have
less than cent net left, as the price pei
pound for his tin.
II that Is not the solution Of the above
statement, then there is some arrange.
ment by which the customs duties arr
to be avoided and the government
cheated by short weights by false invoices
or by some one Of the other many
schemes to beat the custom house know
best to the importers.
II that Is not the case and It is tru
that the British manufactures can sci
tin at A o Of cent per pound, then tn,
duty OF and Id cents per pound i'm
posed in this country is absurd It is I
robbery, plain and simple.
Meanwhile this tin, for which the
English exporter realizes four tifths of 8
cent per pound, sells here to the whole
sale dealer at $1275 per box, or about
cents per pound, aud to consumers at
aud 10 cents per pound.
1t does not matter what explanation
the proteetionists make Of the above
statement; If IL is true, they have put al
enormous and unnecessary duty on tin
II it is not true, then it serves as anothe
exposure Of the manner In which the,
make statements to promote a robb ary
as shameless ignorance or infamou
/ dishonesty.

the state are at stake In this matter, and
It is encouraging to see the first rush Of
blind and needless partisanship has about
spent its force.
This matter has been in contemplation
for more than two years, the bill was
drawn two years ago, the specific reform
was discussed and well-nigh universally
agreed upon fully one year ago; hence
there has been no needless
rush of partisanship in abolishing
in the Levy Court system. That
was universally agreed upon, and the
Five Commissioners bill was recon
mended by the best minds in TIE Demo
cratic party as the specific way OF
accomplishing IT, What has made the
two or three members OF the Legislature
hesitate nobody knows.
We are not inclined to impHie I'M
worthy motives to anybody, but the
popular indignation here among calm anC

bend the cause Of this inexplicable ant

COMMENTING on the findings Of the
juries in the cases Of Fsgan and Free
man the Morning News says:
The general result Of these proceedings
ought to be very satisfactory TO decent
people Our local Democratic news
papers are so full Of partisan fury that
they give a very false color to every
Judicial attempt made in this state to
deal with frauds upon the franchise or
the ballot-box.
The record Of the Republican iuries is
that they have never con victed Repub
lic3n or a negro. There are the notorious
cases Of Neal, which has come down as q
public infamy, and Of Coney which should
bring the blush Of shame to the cheek OF
every self-respeeting man. If the News
will take the calm and impartial retro
apect which 1t recommends it will
fad that the Republicans woulc
do well to initiate the fairness, the
scrupulous care and the Justice
of Democratic courts and Democrati,
juries It would find that those courts
and aries had put on the sacred and IN
sullied mantle of Justice and laid asid,
partisanship at the door Of tn,
Court House. On subject o
this sort it is despieable 70
the News to draw an unfavorable an
untruthful comparison between the tw
political parties when fairness or eve
common deeency would require moder
