does not have high opinion OF the

one OF the leading Democrats OF the

Chicago telling US that Cleveland
could not carry New York, but he
was nominated and elected. Tan
many went to St. Louis united and en-

Tammany does not represent the

Facts Versus Theory.

valuable contribution to the tariff dis
sussion in calling attention to the adver-
visement of reliable and long establish
ed business firm in all the local papers.
both Republican and Democratic. in which
occurs the folio wing truthful ststemo MT:
1.-THE present tariff has so stimulated
production among American mnDufac-
turers that nearly everything 10 the dry
goods line is offered much lower than
ever before. Foreign manufacturers Of
dry goods, rather than lose hold on our
market are offering their ine goods. duty
paid, 10 per cent lower than former
prices. In view Of these facts and anti
eipaiing a larger trade thaa usual. We
have bou ;ht largely all along the line.
aud will sell nearly all dry goods from
10 to 20 pes cent lower thaa former
pr.ces."
There is the actual working Of the
tariff on foreign manufactured goods
The foreigner. rather than give up
American trade. eats dewu his price to
the importer, thus practically payiag the
duty himself. in order to compete with
American manufacturers in the sane
line. The treasury gets the daty, the
American consumer the benefit Of the
reduced price This is a condition. not

The editor Of the St. James Gazette
Of London should have consulted the
American free trade organs before he
printed the following:
In your issue Of yesterday cores
pondent draws attention to case in
which the poisonous effects are attribui-
ed to the ac'ion Of vinegar on the solder
Of the tin case; and have noticed that
10 most instances this view has prevailed.

chief is 70 be found 10 the tin so called
case Itself for the following reason. II
the material Of which the cases are made
containing sal non, lobster or fruit be
compared with good tin plate Of English
manufacture a great difference will be
observed. The tin plate referred to is
presumably Of American make. and it is
we'll known that this article had taken
the place Of English to large extent.
No doubt it would be much cheaper on
account of the heavy duty on the Eng
lish goods.
The author Of the above. in bis anx-
iety to uphold the British as against
American tin. appears to have forgotten
that according to the pro-British free
trade newspapers over here no American
tin is manufactured. The writer in
question, who is evidently well acquaint-
ed with the conditions Of tin manufacture
admits that American tin "has taker
the place of the English to large ex'
tent" for the reason that "no doubt it il
much chaper on account Of the heavy
duty on English goods"
There is more truth in this statemen
of frank and open British enemy o
American manufactures than in all tb'
thousands Of columns Of duplicity ant
deception that have ap ,eared in Ameri
can free trade newspapers on the sub
ject. The Britisher honestly admit
! that American tin is taking the place 0
. British tin, and that the Mckinley la,
has made it possible. He then appeal
to his countrymen not to use article
D lnned in American tin. on the groun
e that it is Of inferior quality. On thi
! we take issue with him. The America

= to be superior to the British article. an

its superiority.

Marriage Under Dimcu1ties.

A. M. Phillips and Mile Burns, of
Coleridge, Neb., had to visit three states
before they were married
The couple first went to Harrington to
be united, but the bride was too young
to meet the requirements of the Ne
braska law. On Sunday they started
for Yankton, being assured that they
could meet with no obstacles. Arrived
at the Missouri river they found the
bridge had been washed out only an
hour before. It was night before they
finally found boatlnan to take them to
the South Dakota bank where they
found themselves two miles above the
town in willow thicket.
Late at night they reached town and
were obliged to wait till morning before
calling on justice of the peace. On
Monday they learned to their disgust
that the laws of South Dakota, although
more liberal than those Of Nebraska,
did not sanction the marriage of one so
young as the would be bride. They
were told to go to Iowa, which they did,
and there met with better success

Land. : Rich Duke ovnaa.

The late Duke of Devonshire owned
land in fourteen different counties. The
estates extend to $4,000 acres, and the
annual rental is something over e17o.-
900. Much of the land in and about
Eastbourne was the property of the
duke, and, like that in the vicinity of
Barrow-in-Furness, has increased enor-
mously in value of late years.
The duke possessed no fewer than
seven seats, the cost of keeping up
which alone must have been consider
able. The duke had the patronage of
over forty church livings, the annual
total value of which exceeds e1O, 900 per
annum.
The founder of the house was William
Cavendish, commonly supposed accord
ing to Mr.. Evans .sOld Nobility'9 to be
identical with that Cavendish who wrote
the Life of Wolsey," and who has been
immortalized by Shakespeare The fifth
duke was the husband of the duchess
whose portrait was painted by Gainsbor-
ough, and about whom there is a story
similar to that of one of the duchesses of
Gordon of her kissing tradesmen to OBJ
tain votes. 1t was the sixth duke who
formed the famous gardens at Chats
worth. The family motto, "Safe by
being cautious" applies, most people
will think, very ftly to the new duke

Two scared Indians.

Two Indians from the La Pointe reser-
walton arrived in Bayfield, few days
ago paralyzed with fear. They told a
wonderful story of adventure. They
had started on a hunt on Madeline island
and intended to visit some friends They
camped on a spot about four miles from
the village. At midnight the Indians
were aroused by a fearful struggle. Be-
fore them We're two men and woman
battling, the contestants being covered
with blood.
The Indians say the forms disappeared
afterward, but the sounds and groans
were kept up all night. People in that
vicinity claim there has been a terrible
murder committed on the island some
time in the past. and that the ''ghosts'
of the parties were seen by the Indians.
