the United States is greater than from
any other causes, the rate per lO0,oOO
deaths annually in this country from
these diseases is far greater than In the
cold and more damp climates OF Eng
land and Wales.
In 1880 the mortality from consump-
ton in the United States was at the
rate of 1909 in every 100000 deaths
and $3.50 from pneumonia. The cores
ponding figures for the same year In
England and Wales were 9, 141 for con-
sumption and 4,772 for pneumonia.
Certainly the man who wears the
cheap coat, which the high tariff on
wool compels him to wear, is likely TO
become very cheap before ne gets
through wearing it.
Concerning the sanitary influence OF
the excessive use of shoddy in the
United States as material for the man
ufacture of clothing, spirit OF fairness
REQUIRES the statement that when prop
erly prepared, as 1t undoubtedly Is In
most cases, its original earthly
or organic impurities are wholly
or in great degree eliminated
from IL or destroyed by the
processes of carding, spinning. boiling,
dyeing and steaming to which IL IS SUD-
iected In its convention into fabrics.
But as all these processes are costly and
are not primarily undertaken from san
itary considerations, the tendency Is to
regard the purification OF shoddy In lts
largest sense, in the course OF It's man.
ufacture, as an incidental matter, in re-
spect to which any special effort is not
necessary. But be this as 1t may, shod-
DIV is not wool, and If the wearers OF
clothing largely made from 1t and pur-
chased because it is cheap could know
OF It's genesis they wonld one and all be
earnest and uncompromising opponents
of any law or policy, like our existing
tariff, which restricts them from using
wool, cheap, healthy and of far greater
enduring properties, In its plrce.
The experience thus selected and
above set forth as an illustration OF the
influences prejudicial to public health
arising from unnatural legislative re-
strictions on the free use of commodi-
ties that enter largely into the living
and well-being of the masses is not ex-
ceptional Many other similar and even
more striking might be cited.
Indeed it may be regarded as a gen.
eral rule that when the natural and free
supply of any article In common use by
the masses is artificially restricted, the
tendency is to fall back upon and use an
inferior substitute, and for the general
plane of living to be thereby lowered.
Such policy undoubtedly is productive
of gain to a comparatively few, but is
certainly a nemesis of evil to the many.

AN ARCTIC TRAGEDY.
Crews of Two Whaling Vessels Massacred
BY the Natives

Crews Of Two Whaling Vessels Massacred
BY the Natives
WASHINGTON, D. c., August ga
catastrophe IS reported by the Treas
ury Department from the Arctic re-
gions. 1t is said that crews of two
small steam whalers, wintering near
the mouth of Mackenzie river, about
500 miles east OF Point Barrow, have
been masSacred by natives OF that re-
gion. All told the crews Of the two
vessels numbered sixty persons, well
equipped and provisioned for long
siege with rifles and ammunition, not
so much for purposes of defense as for
supplying themselves with game. Here
tofore the natives have been very friend
ly to the whites. Many of them
are well armed, having been sup
piled with rifles by trading
vessels, which have exchanged
whisky and guns for furs. While it is
new thing for whalers to winter so
far east as these Two steamers have,
white men have spent winters on shore
with the natives and have lived with a
good degree of comfort. There are
several thousand natives within the
boundaries described. Reindeer, wild
and domesticated, abound. Fur bear
ing animals are found days journey
in the interior, and game birds are
found in great flocks in the open waters.
Whaling crews encamped on the land
would not be under any such strict dis
cipine as might be enforced on ship
board, and If their intercourse with the
natives was offensive, they have prob
ably been overpowered by superior num-
hers

BRUSSELS, August PA communi-

from Stanley Falls which indicates that
Emin Pasha has been wonderfully sue
cesSful in his operations in Africa Ac-
cording to this dispatch Emin Pasha
was at the time the message was sent
resting at Wadelai, after having inAict-
ed most serious and thorough defeat
upon the dervishes. As result Of this
battle Emin Pasha captured 5000 tusks
of ivory and a quantity of ammunition,
arms, and stores of many descriptions.
In addition Emin Pasha has reoccupied
all the old stations in the equatorial
province and seems to have completely
cowed the dervishes.

MOSBY's MUSCLE.
Aided by Three Women He Does Battle on
n Cable Car

SAN FRANCISCO, August .24.-Colonel
John S. Mosby, the old guerilla chief
tain, demonstrated yesterday to the sat
isiaction of cable car conductor that
he has not lost all of his old time activ-
ity. He arose from his seat on the in
side of a cable car to make room for a
lady, and seeing vacant seats on the
grip end went out. MAY cross TO the
dummy?" he asked the gripman.
lyon can't and you know it," said
the official. Hot words followed, the
conductor taking a hand. The Colonel
knocked the conductor down and ham
mered him. The car was stopped, and
the gripman, large powerful man, at
tackled Mosby.
Three lady passengers assisted by pull
ing the gripman's hair. The gripman
got up and bolted; so did Col. Mosby; so
did the battered conductor, and the lat
ter chased out to see the police. Mosby
bears few marks of the encounter.
His knees are peeled and his thumb is
scratched. The conductor, however, has
face that is unfit for publication.

WHERE THE DEATH COMES IN.

as the Lltle Oh InlS dTJlCle ueIe IN
Death in the Pot?" Just here: The
tariff taxes imposed on that proportion
Of the wool consumption of the country
about 100000, 900 pounds-which the
country does not produce, and which it
is needful to import, augment the price
OF all icool clothing to the American
masses TO a degree that they cannot af-
ford, or are unwilling to pay. Let any
one who desires to test this matter for
himself inquire at any respectable furn-
ishlng store the relative prices of un-
doubted all-wool fabrics, and of the fab
relations that ordinarily pass under the
name of woollens, and he will be abund-
antly satisfied. The result is that the
masses buy at some popular price some
thing for their clothing which is called
''woollon" but which is not rightfully
entitled to any such designation-Some-
thing like the fabrics before referred to
produced in Philadelphia, and analysed
by the Dry Goods Economist, which were
composed of seventy-two per cent.
of cotton and shoddy. The climate
Of the United States, especially of its
northern portions, Is, as everybody
knows, liable to sudden and extreme
changes IN temperature, aud for the
practically six winter months OF the
year, it is most essential that all expos
ed TO such changes should be warmly
and substantially clad. Noone in their
senses, would knowingly venture into
an atmosphere charged with conditions
favoring grip" pneumonia, and the
varied throat and lung ailments or dis
ease, clad in cotton garments. And yet
this is exactly what the workingmen
and poorer classes Of the country do
habltually under tariff system that
prevents the proper and healthful use
of wool for the most ordinary clothing
purposes. Does not this condition of
things also suggest a possible explana-
ton OF the fact that while the mortality

gift to the church, and each bears this
inscription, ''To the glory of God,

and were cast at Troy, New York.
The large bell weighs about 1900
pounds and the other two each about
500 pounds. These bells replace the
old bell, which was purchased in 1898,
and whose weight is $40 pounds. The
old bell will be retained, and placed
on pedestal in the corridor of the

their full and lawful possession. Re
marks were frequently heard that none
OF those men incarcerated would ever
see their homes again, and still many
Others would meet the same fate, which
gave rise to fearful apprehensions that
were not reissurlng, and many desert
ed their homes to seek shelter in the
woods and under trees during the night
to avoid arrest in the morning. But
for the position OF the United Senator
snip, could even the Hon. Charles X.
Buckalew have accomplished anything
towards the vindication and release of
our citizens? Very doubtful indeed.
Tyranny undoubtedly would have run
Its course until expended for lack of
physical force.
Providentially for our locality, in the
year of 1903 the Democrats in the
Legislature, fortunately had bare one
majority on joint ballot and on the 9Th
OF January elected the Hon. c. X.
Buckalew to the United States Senate
for term of six years. No other
Democrat in the State Of PENNSYLVANIA
selected to the United States Senate
at this particular time would have
been in a position to have given any
material aid TO our people for want Of
acquaintance of locality, personal IN
terests and general habits of all our
citizens Buckalew devoted all his
talent, energy and power to redress the
grievances of our people. Should this
great man in the United States Senate
even, have accomplished nothing of
national importance, the restoration of
the prosecuted citizens of Columbia
county is star of unfading glory in
the crown Of his rejoicing that might
be envied by the friends Of any states
man in any period who may have bat
tied for our institutions and liberties in
all the history of our beloved country.
Under all the circumstances the
citizens of Columbia county owe Mr..
Buckalew a debt of gratitude that they
can neither appreciate nor have the
ability to repay. Yet we cannot give
Buckalew all the credit for what was
done for our citizens during their mill
tary troubles. Col. John G.. Freeze,
than whom, no truer man can be found
stood shoulder to shoulder and side by
side with Buckalew and therefore is
entitled to a fair share of the peoples
gratitude.
