CROPS IN FOUR STATES.

TOLEDO, o., July 7.-Duriug the past

the wheat crop in these states will be I'M

third say an average crop, and the other
sixth indicate about co per cont. of a good
crop. Most of the Illinois crop is raised
in the central and southern counties.
where the prospects are very favorable:
southern Indiana has nearly as large a
crop and southern Ohio not quite as good.
The Promise I'm Michigan
Michigan promises more than an average
crop, but the northern half of Indiana has
the poorest outlook. the northern half of
Ohio nearly as bad, and the northern half
OF illinois has only fair prospect The
shortage in winter whea5this year as COM

not quite as favorable in the four states as
they were month ago Illinois has i'm

worst in the northern halt and the outlook
Is trifie worse in the northern half of
Ohio, while Michigan also promises less

upon the barges contain ing the Pinkerton

To them tariff taxes are all loss and no

the land, who are not in any way bene
ficiaries, or even claimed as benefciaries,
under a protective tariff.
Now let us look at the protected in
dustries of Philadelphia. OF these the
wooden industry is one of the most i'm.
portant, and if Governor Mckinley will
turn to Superintendent Porter's census
bulletin No. 139 he will find that the
following average wages are paid in the

Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1892-10-13

On this point / challenge successful
contradiction, and it is not only true in
this country, but it is true in every other
country Of the world. In Europe every
leading nation, excepting England, main
tains some form of protective policy.
OF course they do not fall into such
quagmires as the Mckinley tariff, but
they are careful of their own indus
tries, and when they propose to pro.
tect them they protect them without
oppressive taxation upon the people. 1t
is fact also that Governor Mckinley
must know, for he has studied the ques-
ton in all its variations, that wages in
manufacturing industries in free trade
England are much higher than the
wages paid in the same industries in any
of the protective countries of Europe.
There is no need, however, to theorize
on this question nor to go from home to
ascertain facts. Philadelphia has the
largest proportion Of manufacturing in
dustries and skilled labor Of any city ON
the continent and it also has an equal
proportion of skilled labor in nonpro-
tected industries. Here is where pro-
tective tariff should exhibit its benef-
cent results in the highest degree, and
if it fails to be beneficial to labor in this
city 1t must be failure everywhere.
The way to ascertain the truth is to look
at the wages of labor in our protected
and in our nonprotected industries un-
der our own eyes.

BLACKS AGAINST WHITES
A Bloody Insurrection on a Mississippi
Plantation

Bloody 1nsurrection on a Mississippi
Plantation.
CLARKsDALE, Miss, Oct. 4.-Sheriff
Harris, of this place, on Sunday, with a
posse of twenty-seven men went to
Friar's Point to j. K. Wilkinson's plan
tation and put down an insurrection of
the negroes against the whites. Two
colored men were killed outright and
nine captured.
In addition 10 the two men killed,
several are said TO be mortally wounded.
The blacks took to the brush and are
still out, all armed. None of the whites
are reported hurt. From confessions
made by some of the prisoners it is
learned that they have organized an
order among themselves, comprising the
whole neighborhood, with passwords
and grips, with the avowed purpose of
killing the whites. The greatest excite
ment prevails. The colored men are
thoroughly organized, and fears are en-
tertained that the end has not been
reached. Mr.. Sessions, manager of the
plantation, was fired upon three times.
but was not hurt. The town is without
telegraphic facilities.
