RELICS AT THE WORLDS FAIR.
The Grant Collection Will Not Be There
What Mr.. Blaine Will Send.

A Washington dispatch says: The
investigation into the management of
the worlds fair is becoming disagree
able, as it shows the desire to make
personal capital out of public trust.
1t is also revealing, incident ally, some
interesting things. Professor Earll OF
the Smithsonian Institute states that
the most valuable articles in the insti-
tuition, such as the famous collection
OF Grant relics, and of the relics of
George Washington, would not he
sent to Chicago, owing to the great
danger of shipment and exhibition.
Professor Earl explained that the
Grant collection was worth over
100000, that amount OF money
having been advanced on it by the
Nanderbilts. Moreover, 1t contains
Japanese gold coins, worth as bullion
over $4,000. There are, also, all
the swords which Grant carried. The
solid gold casket presented him by the
city of Liverpool ard the brass but
tons which had been cut, one by one,
from General Grants uniform by his
wife after each of his successive bat
ties. Thieves would not hesitate to
take great chances to secure such 81
collection of actual cash value. 1t is
guarded here, in Washington, by a
special electrical device, which informs
watchmen whenever a person reached
within certain distance OF it.
Mr.. Henderson stated that the in
vestigation had disclosed that about
one-half OF the citizens OF Illinois were
engaged as watchmen and policemen
on the exposition grounds, and that
there would be no lack OF guardians
for the Grant or Washington collec-
tions. Mr.. Dockery added that there
was redundancy of the number of
policemen on the pay rolls. II the
same force was maintained after the
exposition opened Mr.. Doekery said
he feared that the visitors would not
be able to find room to get about.
The objection of the Smithsonian
officials to forwarding the Grant and
Washington relics to Chicago brought
out the fact that Secretary Blaine has
decided to send some equally valuable
articles to the exposition. These, ac-
cording to letter written by Mr..
Blaine, will consist of the original
Declaration of Independence, the Con-
stitution of the United States, the
Articles of Federation, the famous
protest OF the Philadelphia Carpen-
ters' company to King George Ill,
and other documents which are the
heirlooms of the country itself, of our
national history. Mr.. Blaine adds in
his letter that these will not be shown
by fac simi 2, but by the originals.
The secretary OF state said that
steel caskets of unusual strength are
being made to contain these precious
papers in transmission, while he con-
ditioned their shipment on the detail
ing by the secretary of war OF COM
pany of soldiers to guard the car on
which they are taken and while they
are at the fair.

Cheap Woolen Goods.

Though the bulk of textile goods
which 90 to the masses, it is within
bounds to say that this country is
the cheapest retail country in the
world, and this, too, in spite OF heavy
import duties. In mems wear, a simi-
lar condition is also noted, there being
no other country where a dollar will
go as far in providing clothing as in
this country. There is no other coun-
try with which to compare this in the
matter of ready-made clothing as per-
tains to quality OF cloth, finish and
style OF garment, and cost to the con-
sumner. Those persons rich enough to
patronize merchant tailors would find
a difference in prices favoring the
other side, but the difference in make
up here might go far in offsetting the
difference in eost.-American Wool

w. A. Allen & Co, wool commission
merchants, give the following view of
the present condition and future pros
poets OF the wool market in their late
circular:
A word about the tariff and ''free
wool" We often hear it remarked in
connection with the decline in wool
prices that the tariff hasn't helped
wool values any. Quite the reverse,
however, Is the fact. For many reas-
ons in no way connected with our tar
III, such as the poor grain crops and
generally depressed condition OF Euro
pean trade, and the large increase in
the amount OF wool grown in foreign
countries, wool values have steadily
declined the world over. SO, it may
be added, have all values declined
Unless we had a tariff OH foreign wool
so high as to be absolutely prohibit
tive, il could not but be that values
in this country would be influenced
accordingly. That prices of wool in
this country without tariff duty on
foreign woods would be much lower
than they are must be evident to any
one who will consider the situation
fairly and fully. The statement that
with free foreign woods to "mix' with
ours our wool would be in larger de-
mand and bring better prices is the
sheerest nonsense. Foreign countries
can produce practically the same
woods We do. There are no facts in
history fully applicable TO the present
situation in this country, and in this
year, 1892, OF our advanced civiliza-
ton, and we can only use our reason.
Let us consider the facts we have.
There are millions of acres of unoccu-
pied grazing lands in Australasia and
South America where wages and gem
eral expenses are much lower than
they are in this country, and the
United States bureau of statistics re-
ports that through railroad extern
sions large areas of grazing lands have
been opened and are being used for
sheep raising in the "backwoods" of
Central Asia, where labor is about on
a basis OF ten cents day wages as
compared with ours. The values of
wool in foreign sheep raising countries
rule today on an average about ten
cents per pound grease value, or about
twent twenty cents per secured pound
value lower than in this country.
Yet at this much lower price the last
clips OF Australia and South America
show large increase in amount,
from which we may reasonably infer
that the business in those countries
has been satisfactory.
The course OF the wool market the
past season has been disappoint-
ment to all, but can now be accounted
for in this country by the excessive
amounts OF foreign woolen goods
which were rushed into this country
effect, and which our manufacturers
still feel the effects OF more or less;
and by a general way by the uniform
decline in values OF wool and woolen
goods the world over.
The generally prosperous condition
vorable condition the coming season.

Novels That Are Not Published.

Chicago Mail: "About 9S per cent
of the manuscript novels submitted
to our house for publication are una
vailable," said reader employed by
one OF the leading Chicago publishing
firms recently.
''There has been a marked change
in the nature OF the manuscripts, too,
within the last two years" he added.
"They show a growing tendency to-
ward morbidness. The two avenues
which seem to be most attractive to
the inexperienced writer nowadays
are sensationalism and psychology.
because Tolstoi, Ibsen and Others
of their class have won fame by books
of questionable moral coloring,
every publishing house is flooded with
manuscripts which range all the way
from bestial RIGHTEOUSNESS to inane
Stiffness. Because Robert Louis Stew
enson produced n successful psyche
logical novel, imitation Jekylls and
Hydes are springing up at every other
crossroads throughout the country.
"There is still another field which is
quite attractive to the beginner-so-
ciology. Progress and Poverty and
Looking Backward were emoney-mak-
ers which gave rise to a perfect deluge
OF worthless works on socialism and
social questions, and the manuscripts
continue to roll in.
''It is not an easy matter to Judge
the worth of a work in manuscript
form. Looking Backward was re-
jected by one well-known and long es-
tablished house, but another firm has
sold about n quarter OF million
copies OF it. For the past six months
have averaged two manuscript
novels per day, and / sometimes read
a half dozen in as many hours"

CARS FROM A BIG TREE.
California Will Make an Astonishing Rail-
way Exhibit at Chicago.

California will astonish and interest
visitors to the worlds fair of 1898
with two elegant railway cars made
entirely from the trunk OF a single
tree. The work is in progress, and
not only is the scheme perfectly prac-
ticable, but the trunk must be pared
down a little to bring it to the right
size for the passenger cars.
1t is OF the famous sequoia ggantea
species, is one OF the big trees of Tu-
lare county. and the organizers and
managers of the scheme are Messrs.
Doyle, Meyers and Bachman OF that
county, says the Los Angeles Herald.
The tree is to he bored and sawed
down. according to the method in
use, precautions being taken TO have
it fall so as not to splinter: then out
of the best part of the trunk sections
are to be sawed OF the length OF pas
senger cars. The work is then to pro-
ceed by making one side flat for the
bottom, cutting in the doors and
windows, then boring, saving and
AIDING out the interior, rounding the
roof, polishing and finishing.
The bark and all the part cut out
will he made into souvenirs.

STEALING HENRY GEORGES THUNDER.
Free Trade Essay Printed as Part Of
congressmen's Remarks"

A recent issue of the Congressional
Record was the bulkiest number OF
that lively journal ever printed. 1t
numbered several hundred pages, a
vast majority of which was the repub-
lication OF such well known protection
pamphlets as From Plymouth to
Mckinley" The reason for this sud
den development OF the house into a
republication bureau lies in Congress-
man Burrows discovery this morning
that the Democratic members of the
house had been sending free, under
their franks, to voters all over the
country, hundreds of thousands OF
copies of Henry Georges free trade
pamphlet, Protection and Free
Trade
Their scheme was very ingenious.
During the tariff debate a general
leave to print was given. Congress
men Washington, Enloe and several
others, believing that the Henry
George free trade pamphlet would
prove a better campaign document
than any speeches they could grind
out, deliberately divided the pamphlet
up between them. Each member took
three or four chapters ofthe work and
inserted them in his remarks" After
they had all been printed each men,
ber ordered large number of copies
of his own speech. The speeches were
then bound, so that, when bound, Mr.
Georges pamphlet was obtained in
full, and having appeared in the
Record and being thus part OF the
document, the pamphlet was entitled
to free transmission in the mails.
Mr.. Burrows promptly called the
attention OF the house to this fiagrant
violation of the spirit ofpermission to
print, and offered resolution in
structing the committee on rules to
investigate, with view to preventing
repetition. The Republican members,
therefore, decided to do some printing
themselves. Mr.. Milliken, OF Maine,
started the ball rolling by sending up
a pamphlet OF eighty pages to be
printed in the Record as part of his
speech, and number of other mem
bers obtained an array of excellent
Republican literature, all OF which ap-
peared in the Record OF the following
morning.

A Rain of Mud.

On April 4th there was a shower OF
mud along the Union Pacific railway
at Onaga. The rain commenced early
in the day, and soon the south and
east sides of all houses were covered
with yellow clay. The windows re-
ceived such a coating as to shut out
the suns rays.
A Union Pacific train which ran
through the storm had its windows
covered, and the headlight was so
completely plastered that the light
was shut in and the train ran in dark
ness to Rossville, the next station,
where the mud had to be scraped OFF.
The storm lasted until after day
light. As far east as Topeka the win
dows showed that the edge OF the
mudstorm had extended this far. 1t
was more severe about fifty miles
northwest.

Why Harrison Can Be Elected.

Indianapolis Journal: As to the
President Harrison is
much stronger than he was in 1888,
because he is much better known.
Cleveland is no stronger with his own
party, and not as strong outside OF
it. Four years ago he had the united
and enthusiastic support OF the DEM
ocratic party and a considerable fol-
lowing OF mugwumps. Now the De-
mocracy is divided, and the emugwump
contingent has dwindled almost to
nothing. Hills friends will give Cleve-
land only a cold and perfunctory sup
port, while the free silver men will
hold their noses as they take the dose.
Harrison, on the other hand, will
have the united and enthusiastic sup
port OF all true Republicans OF all
shades OF opinion. Without doubt
he can carry every state that he car
ried four years ago, including New
York and Indiana, with probably all
OF the new states-Idaho, Montana,
North Dakota, South Dakota and
Wyoming. AS political events are
shaping themselves there is everything
in the situation to encourage Republi-
cans and make them look forward to
the approaching contest with entire
confidence as to the result.

The Democratic Yesterday.

For Gods sake let us 60 back to
yesterday" is the scorching rejoinder
of Tom Reed to David B. Hills recent
southern speeches. Nothing finer has
been uttered since Senator Hoar's re-
partee on the floor OF the house of
representatives to Sunset Cox's AFRO
gance, when he demanded that the
Hector OF the Massachusetts delega-
ton should answer his accusation.
''It is not necessary" said this classic
tongued orator, "to summon Hector
when Thersites raves" A better
poised lance was not hurled round
Troy In her ten years fighting.
The snuffing out of the New York
politician by the cynic OF Maine
awakes long roll OF echoes. The
yesterday" OF the Democratic party
is a FOOLS Paradise and the coun-
try's shame.
Who denounced Washington in the
interest of the French Jacobins, and
accused him of embezzling the public
funds in terms SO coarse, to use his
own language, Gas scarcely could be
applied to Nero, a notorious de-
faulter, or a common pickpocket ?''
The Democratic party. Who was the
author of the Kentucky and Virginia
resolutions of 1898, that contained
the seed of notification Jefferson
himself. Who flung out the rattle
snake flag over the doctrine OF those
resolutions and attempted practical
notification in 1892? The Demo
cratic Calhoun.
Who sent the "Border Rufiians" in
to bleeding Kansas and made her the
victim of the torch, the bowie-knife,
and the shotgun? Who Broderick oi
California son the field of honor"
and why? The Democratic assassin,
Terry; because-to use the words oi
his victim as they brought him from
the field: "They have killed me be-
cause / was opposed to slavery and a

the witch's dance at the Charleston
convention of 1860? Who stole the
Indian trust funds from the safe of the
interior department Who attempted

country, and sprinkled blood in the
face OF the people? Who, during the

party.

Tariff Pictures.

The Republican party is never so
strong as when it appeals to the peo-
pie on the protection issue. The con-
trast OF the results in Rhode Island in
1891 and 1892 is instructive. Last
year the fight in Rhode Island was on
a local issue. The Democratic candi-
date for governor had a plurality OF
1851.
This year the issue was protection
against free trade. The Republican
candidate for governor had a plural
ity over the Democrat of 5000
and a majority over all the candi-
dates combined of 229. This shows
what New England voters think OF
free trade.
