Fres-trade journals and opponents
OF the Mckinley tariff have advanced
many specious arguments against the
tariff generally, and the tariff on wool
In particular. The tact that wool 10
cheaper today in tho United States
than it has been in past years. is
charged by them - direct result of
The imposition Of the Mckinley tariff.
Aud on this most singular neon
listsncy they weave many fairy
,ales for the benefit Of the farmer.
An examination Of statistics bearing on
The subject would reveal 70 them that
The price paid for wool in England, the
yreatest wool consuming country in the
world, Is less than one-half the price
paid . decade ago, and lower than ever
before. That the sheep-raising indtfs-
Try of Australia has mounted from .
comparatively Insignificant figure until
It now overshadows any other nation;
that she alone furnishes 1000, 0O0, 900
pounds OF wool, or about one-haif Of
he worlds production, and that her
facilities for sheep raising are such that
no other nation can compete with her.
Without . protective tariff sheep can
not be profitably raised in this country,
except for mutton. They seize on the
fact that nineteen per cent OF tho wool
used in this country in 1867 wa i'm
ported, whilo Hxty-two per cent was
imported IN 1891, and in this fud an
other argument against . wool tariff
ignoring. however, the more significant
fact that in the decade from 1860 to 1870
with only three years Of protection to
the industry, the number OF sheep in
the United States increased from o.
6oo, 600 to g, SOC. 900. or twenty seven
per cent, and that from 1870 TO 1880 the
increase Was forty-four per cent, and

creased from $50. 900 900 pounds 70 $685.

also forget to say that Ia four years,
from 1884 10 and including 1888 under
The Cleveland Administration the num-
her Of head VI sheep in the United
states decreased over 10000. 900. These
sgures are Of greater significance than

A Horrible Story from the Kentucky
Mountain Region.

"A hofrDie story from the Kentucky
Mountain Region.
BRISTOL, Tenn, April 22.-News has
reached here of terrible double tragedy
which occurred in the mountain region Of
Kentucky. Syl Harwell was q very we'll
to-do farmer of that section He had been
married about three years and had lived
comparatively happily with his wife. A
few days ago, however, he made the start
ling discovery that his wife was too iuti-
mate with young man of the community
named Alex Brady, and vehemently and
necessarily abused her for her infideIity.
Burned Her Husband and Baby.
Monday night Mrs. Harwell thoroughly
saturated with kerosene oil the bed on
which her husband and infant were
sleeping and threw a firebrand thereon. and
then darted out at the door. The build
ing was soon wrapped in flames. Among
those attracted to the scene by the light
was Brady. After looking on a few mo.
ments he and Mrs. Harwell started away
together across a field, and were attacked
by savage bull and gored to death Mrs.
Harwell lived a few hours and acknowl-
edged the facts as related above

he appeared upon the stage after some de-
lay. 1t was apparent that he keenly felt
his defeat, but he told the convention that
he would wave aside the cup of bitterness
that had been placed to his lips; that there
would be no bitterness in his heart; that
he would not be found sulking in his tent.
but foremost in the campaign to the end
of the fight. Nominations for lieutenant
governor were next in order NiblacS,
Nye and Samuel W. Axtell, of Green coun
ty, and Isaac P. Mcdonald, of Whitley
county, were named.
No Second Place for "Gii."
Somebody in the center of the hall nomi-
mated Shanklin, but it was met by shouts
OF mo" from hundreds of throats, and half
dozen of his friends were on their chairs
to demand that his name be not considered
in connection with the second place on the
ticket. So much confusion prevailed at
this point that the sergeant-at-arms and
his assistants were powerless, and the aid
of u sergeant of police and half dozen Of
fcers was invoked to clear the aisles and
drive the interlopers into the corridors.
Two ballots were necessary to make the
nomination, the contest being principally
between Nye and Mcdonald, and the for
mer finally won by 73s to 494.
The Ticket Completed.
After this it was pretty smooth sailing.
Captain W. R. Myers, of Anderson,
member of congress in 1875 but beaten by
Godlove S. Orth two years later; secretary
of state from 50 to 'S6, and defeated for
lieutenant governor in 'SS, was nominated
for secretary of state by acclamation.
State Treasurer Albert Gall, Auditor J. o.
Henderson, Attorney General Green
Smith, Statistician WILLIAM 4. Peele,
superintendent of Public Instruction
Harvey d. Worries, were renominated
by reclamation in a bunch. Sidney
X. Moon was nominated for SUI
preme court reporter. Senator
Smith called attention to the fact that
the Australian law required the party to
place device at the head of its ticket,
and suggested that rooster would be an
appropriate emblem. The idea was ap-
proved with chorus of cock crows, the
band burst out with "Auld Lang Syne,"
and at SIS the convention was declared at
an end

THE GREAT FIGHT OF THE DA'

One Ballot and Stampede to Claude
Matthews.
Much to the disgust of goodly section
of the convention it required three ballots
to dispose of the nomination for the ap-
pellate jadgeship of the Fifth district,
George G. Ross, of Logansport, finally
capturing the prize. 1t was not until 4:3O
that the great contest Of the day, there
fore, the gubernatorial nomination, was
declared in order Speeches were tabooed,
and the candidates were named: John G.
Shanklin, by Captain J. NJ. Mahoney;
Mason J. Niblack. by Sam II. Taylor;
Claude Matthews, by W. Fairbanks, and
Mortimer Nye, by delegate who was too
modest to announce his name. When the
calling of the roll had been completed
Matthews lacked less than thirty OF the
total number necessary to choice,
while Shanklfn was nearly 300 in the rear.
Allen County Leads the Break.
Allen county led off with change of its
vote to Matthews, and the Shanklin dele
cations proceeded to tumble over each
oaher in their eagerness to get on the
winning side. The chair ordered q second
roll cali, but at this juncture the names of
all the opposing candidates were with
drawn and Matthews was declared the
nominee by reclamation. The successful
candidate was escorted to the platform
and briefly expressed his thanks, closing
by saying; "This is but the preliminary
work, the throwing out of the skirmish
