Fair Prices And Good Wages.

On Labor Jubilee at South Bend,
Ind, Colonel William Hoynes, of Notre
Dame, was the principal speaker. His
speech was eloquent and contained
much good sense and sound doctrine.
The following, quoted from it, should
be read and considered by the workers
of all grades:
al believe in fair prices and good
wages rather than in unfair prices
and low wages. However, L have
heard some ask: 'sWhat difference does
it make if my wages be reduced, pro-
viding that the prices of the things L
buy be reduced in equal proportion ?''
A great difference, l think. Should a
radical change in wages and prices be
made / would prefer to see them go i'll
the other direction, A man who re-
ceives 50 day quite manifestly has
twice as large margin for saving as the
man who gets only 81. For example,
if / save so cents day while receilv-
ing 80, and all things, including wages,
be reduced one-half, can at the re-
duced rate save only % cents by econ
omizing in like manner. But, aside
from that, | would be very reluctant to
permit my capital to be reduced one
half and that OF the man OF accumu
lated wealth doubled. In other words
there are two kinds OF capital. One is
i'm the Drawn and brain OF the work
man. The other is i'm the accumulated
wealth OF the capitalist-the man who
lives, not by the work of his OWL
hands, but by the toll OF those that
borrow from or labor for him. If you
reduce by one-half my capacity to
earn, or the price of things l produce
by nv labor, you reduce in like ratio
the only capital have-the capital o.
muscle and mind, or Drawn and brain
That is the capital God created. And
surely no capital instituted by man is
SO precious. But while you thus de
crease my capital you double the pur
chasing power and virtually the mas:
. of the accumulated capital possessed
by the man of means. For the 80 ht
once paid me for a days work he nov
gets two days OF my work. Th'

How Marbles Are Made.

Almost all the "marbles" with which
boys amuse themselves in season and
out of season, on pavements and in
shady spots, are made at Oberstein,
Germany. There are many large agate
auarries and mills in that neighbor
hood, and the refuse is turned to good
account in providing the small stone
balls for experts to "knuckle down"
with. The stone is broken into small
cubes by blows from light hammer.
These small blocks ofstone are thrown
by the shovelful into the hopper of a
small mill, formed OF bedstone hav-
ing it's surface grooved with concentric
| burrows; above this is a "runner,"
having level face on it's lower surface.
The upper block is made to revolve
rapidly, water being delivered upon
the grooves of the bedstone where the
marbles are being rounded. 1t takes
about fifteen minutes to finish bushe
OF good marbles ready for the boys
knuckles. One mill will turn out 60,
900 per week.-Cornhill Magazine.

Ohio's Democratic Emblem.

Minneapolis Tribune: "Billy" Ma
son, of Chicago, is doing some stump
ing in Ohio, and spoke at the great
Mckinley rally in Cincinnati the other
night. BILLY" is not always choice
in his language, but he told some
truths in homely way in the course of
his speech that made the big audience
in Music Hall scream with delight.
BILLY" said that the Republicans
were trying to prove that the people
were reasonably successful in this
country; the Democrats that they
were mendicants and paupers. Pros
perity meant Republican success; dis
tress meant Democratic success, prob
ably on the principle that misfortunes
never come singly. We were threat
ened with prosperity this year. That
means Republicanism. Go into n
Democratic audience and the cheers
OF 10, 900 throats will greet you if you
can convince them that drought and
distress prevail all over the country.
| They wanted to hear men with mental
rheumatism and moral erysipelas,
and believe the whole fault with the
Mckinley bill. The music of the
thresher and the dash of the churn
gladden. the Republican heart, but
every time hen laid an egg the Dem.
ocratic heart was thrown into despair
The Democrats had chosen for theiI
emblem that barnyard fowl which
made more noise and did less business
Probably they had chosen the rooster
because he was a non-producer.

Tin Plate Again.

''No tin plate is made in this coun-
try for commercial purposes" says
the New York World. Within a week
the Press published list OF four firms
who are making an aggregate OF 5000
to 10000 boxes OF tin plate per month
for sale on the general market. These
firms are making additions to their
works SO as to produce $4,000 to
80, 900 boxes per month. These fig
ures do not include the large product
OF tin plate made by firms like Med
ringhaus Brothers of st. Louis for
consumption in their own business.
The Press also gave list of four firms
which have nearly completed tin plate
works with a promised capacity oi
900 to 10000 boxes per month
| One of these factories is in Brooklyn,
and it's owners are Democrats. Seven
other business firms or corporations
are known to have ecompleted arrange
ments to go into the same line OF man
ufacture. None OF these fifteen con
Germs is small or petty. Names and
| locations were given, so that there
could be no trouble in ascertaining the
truth about tin plate manufacture
1t reflects discredit on any metropoll
tan paper of whatever politics which
will deliberately declare in the face o
such an array of proof that "no til
plate is made in this country" ant
puts all it's utterances on every sub
ject under the ban of suspicion.-Nsy

He Looked Out of the Window.

A thin, delicate looking woman sat
in horse-car oneevening recently and
next her sat a native OF the queens
realm, says the Argonaut. The win
dow behind the Briton was open and
the cool wind blew in on the woman
making her shiver. At last she said in
a lady-like way: won't you be kind
enough ito close the window, as it
makes me cold?" 1t would hardly
have caused the man any inconven-
ience to grant the request, but he re,
piled, harshly: "I prefer it open; you
Americans can't stand anything; you
all seem to have consumption" The
other passengers in the car were as
founded at his incivility and there
were many angry glances cast at the
royal subject. Finally, gentleman
rose on the opposite side OF the cal
and approaching the Englishman with
about two hundred and twenty
pounds adverdupois leaned over hin
and grasping the window slammed i
down with vigor. Then he remarked
"Now my friend, if you think all Amer
leans are afflicted with consumption
YOU lust raise that window again.

blushed, the other passengers smiled

Back Comes the Gold.

Shipments of gold to the United
States from England have been fire.
quent in the past ten days. Yester-
day 100000 was shipped-half a
million dollars. The Press predicted
when gold was flowing out OF this
country last spring that as we began
to send breadstuffs abroad this fall
the tide OF yellow currency would
turn.
We are shipping about million dol
lars worth OF products to Europe
daily at this time. Corn, cotton,
wheat, pork, beef and oil are the prin-
cipal commodities, and they have
turned the golden stream our way
again.
The aggregate amount of gold
shipped abroad in the last year has
been estimated at S75, 100000. At
our present rate of shipments three
months will see all this returned, with
S1O,OOO,OOO to SIS, 100000 more
added to it.
An English financial authority, Mr.
Edward Giffen, declares that the Bank
OF England will raise their rates OF dis
count and thus check the drain of golG
to this country before they will allow
even f1O,OOO,OOO to be sent ovel
here. Mr.. Giffen cannot have taker
into account the fact that Europ
must have our breadstuffs at almos
any price and must pay for the sam
regardless of the rate of discount, tn
increase OF which would be merely al
additional expense to their own citi
zens.
The United States, in other words
holds the key of the worlds financia
situation through its vast crops an
invaluable supplies of cotton, mea
and oil.-New York Press.

LITTLE, BUT OH, MY.
A Girl Baby Born to Mr.. and Mrs. Grover
Cleveland.

New YORK, Oct. 3.-There is an
heiress to the house OF Cleveland. The
ex-president's beautiful wife presented
him with a daughter today at their
home No. 616 Madison avenue. Little
Miss Cleveland was born at six min
utes after midnight this morning. She
tipped the scales at six pounds, and
after testing her lungs fell into a quiet
slumber. DIR. j. b. Bryant was in at
tendance. Mother and child are doing
we'll.
The important news did not become
known down town until nearly noon.
Then it spread with the utmost rapid
ity both in the city and to other parts
of the country. During the afternoon
many flowers were sent to Mrs. Cleve-
| land, and both father and mother re-
ceived hearty congratulations. Then
the messenger boys began moving up
the avenue with telegraphic messages
from all parts of the country. The
ex-president bears his honors easily.
He said today: 81 don't want to brag
| any, but this baby now is as stout
and as good as most babies are when
they are three or four days old"

Protection Insures Prosperity.

| Our country's steady and recog
nized advancement through the devel
opment of all natural resources within
reach, is essential to the acquisition
OF that standing among nations with.
out which no government can long be
maintained. This progress and devel-
opment is possible only so long as en-
ployment is furnished to every man at
wages by which he can earn enough to
properly feed and clothe his family
and still have something to lay aside
for the time when age compels him to
give place to younger blood and
stronger muscle.
The worlds history assures us that
power cannot be secured or independ-
ence maintained by the nation that
fails to accord more consideration to
the interests OF it's citizens than to the
people of other nations; for citizens
of rising nation, like the members of
an immature family, must be defended
| against innovations by those who
stand ready to reap where they have
not sown, to profit by keeping Others
in dependence upon them for such
things as necessity or preference may
Indicate.
This is the object and result of pro-
lection. Practiced by every house
hold, Incorporated into every village
charter, affirmed in the constitution
OF every commonwealth, the right
| the solemn duty-to look after the
welfare of ones own, stood unchal-
| lenged through the ages until the mod
ern "reformer" begun to insist that
there shall be no discrimination
against outsiders when extending COM
mercial privileges by law.
One OF the statutory rights OF the
American citizen, old as the govern
ment itself, is to have such taxes as
| are laid for purposes of revenue pur-
posely so adjusted as to give him q
better chance than any foreign rival
to gain profit from the business of his
country. In return for this he stands
ready to discharge jury duty, to de-
fend the country in time OF war, and
| to add the proceeds of his industry
and economy to the general prosperity
in time OF peace.
As a result OF this equitable arrange
ment the worlds greatest republic, in
the single century of Its existence, has
| forged to the front OF nations-with
an internal commerce that exceeds in
| tonnage and value the worldwide
| trade of the haughty mistress of the
seas. One by one the great industries
OF the old world are overshadowed by
those here made strong by the foster
ing hand OF domestic protection; while
wages have been kept up and prices
| forced down in the only legitimate
way-competition between employers,
the ingenuity and intelligence of work
men, and skill and energy in bringing
to the support of these the unparal-
leled resources OF farms, forests and
mines.
Every attempt to improve upon
this condition by discarding the eco
nomic policy under which it has been
attained, is to stultify history, ignore
past experience, and to bring down
chaos and disaster upon every indus
try now contributing to the comfort
and support of our people, and the
power and influence of our country.
All such attempts are repudiated by
American voters whenever the propo-
sitIon is placed squarely before them.

Bound Not to Be Used.

The American Economist of August
21st contained the following from the
Oskaloosa Herald. 1t illustrates the
mulish obstinacy of some men. and
also demonstrates a very important
truth in current politics:
One of our former friends whose only
fault is that he is a Democrat-and he
is not to be blamed for that, for his
father before him was dyed in the
wool, and he never reads the papers
came to town one day this week to
buy some sugar. His good wife was
putting up fruit and she needed about
fifteen pounds of sweetness. The dia-
logue in the grocery ran about as fol-
lows:
Farmer-"What are you doing young
mani"
Clerk-'Waiting on you. Weighing
out your sugar"
Farmer-"How much are you giving
me?"
Clerk-"A dollars worth"
F'armer-"Yes, / know; but how
many pounds?"
-"Twenty-four."
Farmer = "Twenty-fourl Why it
used to be only fourteen"
Clerk-"Yes, but Mckinley did it. !"
Farmer-"Well, run her back and
give me only fourteen pounds. IL
took home twenty-four pounds of
sugar for a dollar the old woman
would make me vote the Republican
ticket, and I'll be hanged If I'll do
that"
In the Economist of September 4th,
William Commins, of Union City, Ind,
gives the following experience of
another Democratic farmer:
The anecdote given in your issue of
August 21st, as taken from the Oska-
loosa Herald, may be supplemented
by the experience OF a Democratic far
mer of this place. This man, usually
forehanded with his business, not
given to reading the papers, whose po-
litical doctrine is to believe all the
Democratic teachers say, and to plump
it straight for the Democratic nominee
every election day, had last fall been
stuffed full OF hign Mckinley prices.
Thinking he would be ahead in one
thing at least he laid in q supply of
binding twine, for which he paid four
teen cents per pound, wholesale, for
medium grade article. The harvest of
this year being about over, he brought
his wife to town to get supplies for
threshing. At the same time he
brought load of corn which he sold
for sixty cents bushel. He sold his
wheat for 81 per bushel, and bunch
OF hogs for S5.6 per hundred pounds,
live weight. He then hunted his wife
up and paid her bills. She had bought
three tin cups for dime; good calico
at four cents per yard; and the best
granulated sugar for five cents per
pound. He then stepped into a hard
ware store and bought a keg of nails
for 81. 80, and needing few pounds of
binding twine for late harvest he was
given the best MANILA twine for ten
cents per pound. This knocked the
old fellow clean out. He contemplate
ed the ceiling for a few minutes and
then communed with himself thus:
1.-The best MANILA binding twine for
ten cents a pound, three tin cups for a
dime, good calico for four cents a yard,
twenty pounds of white sugar for one
dollar, a whole keg of nails for S1.S0;
corn sixty cents bushel, and 1 sold
300 bushels at that price and got the
cash; hogs, S5.65 hundred on foot;
wheat 81 bushel and thirty bushels
to the acre; if only Cleveland was pres
ident this would be a h-ll of a fine
time"
