A Rumor That He MAY Succeed Father
Heinrich as the Head of the Fconomites.
CHICAGO, December 27.-Dr. Cyrus Il.
Teed, the head Of the Koreshan Society
here, stands fair show, II is said, to sue
coed Father Henrici, chief Of the Econ0-
mites in Pennsylvania. II will be remem-
bered that DR.. iced visited the Ecoro-
mites last summer lectured 70 them and
remained as their guest several weeks.
While lie was at Economy reports were
circulated that Teed was working among
the Economics to be placed az the head Of
the society. iced never acknowledged
nor denied these rumors. 1t was said that
Heinrich was so bitterly opposed TO iced,
however. that be had TO leave the colony.
Now that Heinrich is dead. the story OF
Teed's taking hold of the affairs Of the
society are revived. Teed is not at his

They Need No Tariff.



The manufacturers OF aint-glasS bot
ties have closed their factories for two
weeks, ana an officer of the combine
ton or association has attempted 70
convince the public that this action was
taken because of their fear of an i'm
pending reduction Of the tariff duties
on such bottles. But now come two
prominent Observation-Disclosures
Park, OF the North Wheeling CIV. Va
Bottle Works, and G.. w. Gost, or the
Bel!airs Bottle Works, Of Bellaire, Ohio
and assert that this was not the cause
o! the temporary suspension. THE
reason" these manufacturers say. was
overproduction. Consumption Is greater
than ever before, but production has
grown more rapidly"
At the same time these gentlemen
agree tn making the following very IN
teresting statement for the enlighten-
ment of the public concerning the tariff
as affecting their industry;
"As 20 the tariff on flint bottles, we
would not find fault 70 its entire removal
We ara in no wise affected by II one way
or another We make bottles for less than
they can be freighted 70 this country from
abroad. leaving out the cost of fOrelg IN pro-
ductiou. If we had free raw material we
could send bottles across the water and
take the markets Of the world"
It should be borne in mind that these
are the words of the representatives Of
TWO large factories They say that the
entire cost OF their bottles is less than
the freight charges upon similar goods
brought 10 this country from Europe.
That is 10 say, the freight charges alone
afford protection greater than the en-
tire cost OF production 10 their factories.
This being admitted, 10 naturally fol-
lows that they need no additional pro-
lection in the tariff.
Now let US see what the tariff duty IS.
Uuder the old law it was 40 per cent;
under the Mckinley act IL IS much
higher, ranging FROM l cent a pound 20
50 cents q gross. The Treasury reports
show that for the fcal year 1891 the
new duty on bottles holding from one
gill 70 one pint was 6l]5 per cent, and
that the duty on smaller bottles was
lO2 per cent. These changes were made
at the request OF certain manufacture
ers who told the ola story 10 the COM
mittee.
These duties were not required for
the protection o. the industry, but to
enable the manufacturers TO make
prices high and 10 enact these high
prices by means OF combination agree
ment. No part OF them is needed, these
two manufacturers say, to restrain COM
petition from abroad when fair compe-
tition prevails at home. They go fur
Their aud assert that with untsxed raw
materials they can not only sell their
goods IN foreign markets 10 cOmpeti-
ton with foreign goods, but can beat
the foreign manufacturer everywhere
and take the markets OF the world for
their own use. All this should not be
forgotten when the new Congress re-
vevlseS the tariff.

sailed from Liverpool December 18th,
from Queenstown for New York on De-

from Queenstown about nine days, which
is at least two days in excess of what was
expected The great storms on the Allan

the apprehension felt is so serious that re-
insuring has already commenced. The

Of the above. How can the public take
any stock in such statement after dis
covering that it is the receiver OF stol-

States mail? Sure, it pleads innocence
in this, that it was not aware that the
letters were surreptiously taken from
the mails. Admitting even this, and
still it knew the letters belonged TO
other parties, and they (the letters)
were not turned over to the i,telligencer

And by the way, our neighbor has

how those letters fell into its possession,
something its readers are very anxious
to know all about.
TIE fact that the stealing Of six cleo

THE "MARRIED wOMEN's ACT"
The next Legislature will remove one
Of the most unjust provisions on our
statute books by radically amending
the married Woman's Act" so that a
married woman may have some control
of her own property. As it is, she has
practically none, or a merely nominal
control.
Il is so tied up by law that neither
she nor any one for her can use 1t, ex-
cept ia very narrow and restricted
manner. 1t is hers, yet she has none of
the privileges. powers or liabilities OF
ownership. If her husband is huan-
cialy embarrassed, she cannot help
him; she cannot even borrow
money except to improve property in
her name; nor 20 into business, nor
do anything else another property owner
may do.
Originally designed for the protection
OF married women in the use OF their
property, it does the opposite thing aud
deprives a married woman Of all use OF
it. Under this law she is treated as al
irresponsible person, an imbecile.
The law is a bung.iuz abortion, the
