THE WOOL QUESTION ~ BRIEF


Free wool has been made an issue in the
Presidential campaign by the nearly unanimous
vote OF Democrats in Congress II makes no
difference now what they say in their platform :;
actions speak louder than words. The wool
growers who prefer to abolish the duty will
vote for u Democratic President next Novcm-
Der, knowing that he will be prepared to sign
any such measure which his party demands with
substantial unanimity. In several journals rca-
sons are given at length for opposing free wool
but they do not place stress upon tho two rca-
sons which seem to TIE TRIBUNE most impor-
tant Of all.
It is urged that at least "a 900 900 sheep
out Of 44,OO0,O00 in the country are of the
merino blood, which are not proitably raised
for mutton. and would be slaughtered and no
longer raised at all if duties on wool were re-
moved In effect the destruction of wool-grow-
ing rs an American industry would inevitably
result. No doubt this is true, and it is strong
reason for retaining duties. Wool of The same
quality, costing not more than 30 10 81 cents
secured. is imported largely now. the American
merino costing in secured condition about twice
as much. Such wool can be grown in any ouan-
tity in Australia, and other countries where
land is valueless and labor cheap and it is sheer
folly to suppose that the American grower can

Congress has been in session dose to five
months, and the record which the House has
made in that time is not one to which anybody
can tluthfulIy point with pride. Any Demo
cratic platform which makes use OF this time
honorcd phrase will be merely ndulging in the
most transparent buncombe. The truth is that
the present House has been characterized by
nothing so much as by ineilciency and total
absence of business sense. The trouble has
been that the big Democratic majority is a
bjndranee instead of a help. 4 small majority
is necessarily on its mcttle: but majority of
$50 is dead weight, which in this case has
proved fatal. The term DoNothing Congress

Respect.

The committee appointed by the Worthy
Master to draft resolutions on the death of
our worthy sister, offers the following:
WHEREAS, the all-wise Creator has seen
proper to allow death for the first time in
many years to visit our Grange and take
from us our worthy sister, Mary Brown, who
was so very faithful in attending all our
meetings SO long as her health would permit,
and her devotion to society and Grange ex-
celled by none; and,
WHEREAS, During the dark years when
Harrison Grange seemed to almost break of
its own weight, Sister Brown remained as
firm and steadfast as the Rock of Ages, had
the satisfaction of seeing this Grange rally
and take its place as the live Grange of Hen
ry County; therefore,
ResolUed: That though her bodily pres
ence meets with as no more, yet we hold her
in memory and have reason to believe that
she has gone to meet with the Great Grange
beyond the shadow of death with all the
good who have gone on before her;
RESOLVED: That we cherish her in our mem.
ory and our charter be draped for thirty
days, and copy of these resolutions be
sent to the Bulletin and county papers fol
publication, a copy to the family of the de.
ceased, and also copy be filed with the pa.
pers of the Grange. @. N.B.

TAX ON CIGARETTES.
Possibly 1t May Be Increased to $40
Per Thousand.

Per Thousand.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The ways and
means committee of the house of repre-
sentatives will be petitioned to prepare
bill invoking the paternal condemnation
of the government upon the cigarette
habit. Representatives Cochran, Cum
mings and Stahlnecker, of New York, all
have in their possession bills which they
have been petitioned to introduce, pro-
viding for the suppression of cigarette
manufacture by imposing an internal
revenue tax of $40 per thousand on all
imported or domestic cigarettes sold in
this country. Accompanying the me-
mortal is statement which says:
Clippings taken from papers throughout
the United States show that during the
past year there have been about one
hundred deaths of young men, mostly
under sixteen years Of age, from the effects
of smoking paper wrapped cigarettes. In
some cases there has been an analysis of
the stomach and in most instances there
has been found acid, phosphorus and
arsenic, wL4eh is largely used in the
I
the same clippings will show that about
one hundred men have been consigned to
insane asylums from the same cause.
There has been in about forty of the
different states a law passed prohibit
ing the sale of paper-wrapped cigar
cites to minors under sixteen years
oflsage. There has never yet been a
chemist of any responsibility who
has examinined paper-wrapped cigarettes
who has not most decidedly pronounced
them injurious. The internal revenue
tax is now fifty cents per thousand for pa
per-wrapped cigarettes of less than three
pounds weight per Thousand cigarettes.
70 accomplish what the different states
have and are attempting to- ido--protect
young people by prohibiting their smok-
| ing paper-wrapped eigarettes-a law
should be passed by this congress making
the internal revenue tax $40 per thousand
on all paper-wrapped, imported or do
nestle cigarettes. This would place
them at price that children could notpay
and go further than any state legislation
can do, and meet with the approval OF
every man and woman in the country.
Following this statement are the
names and former addresses of over two
hundred people of the various sections
Of the United States who have, during
the past year, died or grown 'hopelessly
insane as the effect of the cigarette
habit. Representative Cochran will file
his bill with the ways and means com
mittee, of which he is member. fol-
such action as that committee may deem
| necessary.

selves by Shooting Negroes.
MOBILE, Feb. 16.-A case of unpro-
voked murder was developed here Mon
day. Three negroes, John Lewis, Jesse
Miller and Mack Knowles, who lived in
Baldwin county, were on their way to
work on the turpentine plantation Of
Hughes, Grimlar & Company, in Escam-
bia county, Fla Last Saturday night
they camped in the woods near Canoe
Station in hut, before which they built
a fire. Hearing some shooting after
they had lain down to sleep, one of the
three arose and went to the entrance Of
the hut, when he was fired upon and shot
down, several bullets entering his legs
and one perforating tho artery of the
lower leg. His companion, Miller,
hearing his groans, arose to go to his as
sistance, when he, too, was fired upon
and severely wounded in the hip by a
Winchester bullet. Another volley was
fired at the hut and Knowles was also
wounded. Lewis lay until Sunday
afternoon without medical attention.
The three were put aboard Louisville
and Nashville train and brought to this
city. Lewis died on the way from
hemorrhage. An inquest held developed
the fact that number of white lumber
men had got drunk Saturday night. It
is known that they were armed and were
firing their guns from the time they
filled up on mean whisky at Canoe Sta

negroes, expects to bring the murderers

FUEL GAS SHUT OFF.
Consumers at Dayton, o., Must Go Back
to Wood and Coal.


DAYTON, Feb. 16.-Natural gas was
entirely shut off from the city shortly
after o'clock Monday morning, because
of the refusal Of the council to allow the
price to be increased 100 per cent. The
contract at ten cents per thousand cubic
feet has eighteen years to run.
The company has been fighting for
the advance for year past, and the sup
ply has been so unsatisfactory that gen
eral belief prevailed that the pressure
was being manipulated. Latterly the
service has been a nuisance, but hun
dreds of people held on hoping an ar
rangement would be reached, or at least
that even a limited supply would be con.
tinued until nearer spring. However,
the company gave public notice Satur.
day that the gas would be shut off from
Dayton.
The gas was shut off, and nine tenths
of those who have used no other fuel fol
three years are already glad that the end
has come. Hundreds of small homes
are built for gas fuel only, and occu
pants of that class of houses will suffer
the greatest inconvenience. All will
manage to shift along until spring. Ii
the meantime the coal dealers will rear
the harvest.
