AS a harbinger of the millennium
and panacea for all the ills of labor
ing humanity the Mckinley bill Is fiat
failure, a "delusion and a snare" There
have been hundreds of reductions of
wages under its operations and not one
instance of increased compensation for
labor, skilled or unskilled. There have
also been strikes, lock outs, mobs, loss
of life and military interventions. In
fact, under Republican protection this
blessed land Is in a condition to afford
great comfort to effete despotisms.-

THE ministers of Toledo united In a
request to the newspapers, not to print
the news of the prize fights in New
Orleans. But the wicked newspapers
paid no heed to the request. Literature
is the product of civilization. If our
civilization dotes on prize fighting
then literature that does not treat of
it, would not properly represent the
people Of that civilization. Our civil
ization is made by the school house, the
university, the pulpit, the stage, the
platform orator and the public journal.
If all these produce nothing better than
prize fight, it is the duty of the press
to public the news.

Mckinley is on the stump talking about
our increased exports, as an evidence of
increased prosperity under his tariff,
but of course he never mentions that
this increased value of exports is made
up largely of gold, which If it continues
will result in financial disaster. With
his usual Pecksniffian hypocrisy he
conceals this fact.

G.. A. X. Troubles In the South.

ALBANY, N. Y, May 21.-General Palmer.
commander-in-chief of the G. A. R., when
shown dispatch from New Orleans stating
that the division of Mississippi and Lou
lsiana G. A. r. had surrendered their
division charter on account of what
they allege is an attempt on the part
of General Palmer to force the division to
admit colored veterans, said: "My knowl-
edge of this question obtained in the public
press. The officers in the louisiana depart
ment are fully aware of the action of the last
national encampment. Eight white posts
object to admitting nine colored posts in that
division. 1t is not reasonable to suppose
that the representatives of eight posts can
override the voice of nearly a million of men
represented at the national encampment,
where, at the last meeting in Detroit. they
tried to have two separate departments in
the division, one for white posts and one for
colored, SO that each could hold separate
meetings. This proposition, however, was
rejected. The colored posts recently notified
me that they had rendered their dues to the
Louisiana department headquarters, Which
refused them. ordered the department
commander to recognize these posts and re-
ceive dues. He refused. Nothing was then
left for me but to suspend him. The CON-
mand of the department then devolved upon
Senior Vice Commander Durkee. who Or
de,ed should report to me by May Is. whether
he carried out my instructions to recognize
these posts. having failed to so comply, an
order will be issued suspending Durkes and
designating the junior vice commander to
take charge of the affairs of the department.
IT he declines to obey orders, then | shall be
obliged to place some one else in command
Of the department."

II 1. One story Of Destruction.

Sioux Crr1, May N.-The scene which ID
disclosed by the recessl on of the flood is one
which besgars description. Throughout the
flooded district it is one story of destruction
aud damage. The flood, 1t its height, ex.
tended from Court street to Floyd Bluffs, and
from the suburb of Lynn to the Mississippi
river. This comprises q district 1--WE miles
long and a mile and half wide. For the
distance of q mile and a half above the mouth
of the Floyd, the bottom is densely popu-
lated. A large portion Of the inhabitants are
poor people who are employees of packing
houses, railroads, etc. At the height of the
hood the current struck straight through the
residence streets. Along these nearest the
river scores of dwellings were swept from
their foundations and carried long distances
and either smashed or turned bottom side
up. 1t 10 no uncommon sight to see . dwell
ing turned over on it's side or roof. Many
two story buildings were swept away. The
buildings which are twisted or carried q short
distance are innumerable.
The water was far above the second stories,
with q swift current and the wind blowing .
hurricane. Everywhere fences, outhouses,
sidewalks, wooden pavements, railroad tiee
and timbers and lumber yard debris is scat
tered about among the contorted and over
turned dwellings.

CHICAGO, May 16.-Abram Fell, OF Buffalo,
~. Y, agent of the Wabash & Lackawanna
Dispatch, freight line composed OF the
Wabash. Grand Trunk & Delaware, Lacka-
wanna 4 Western railroads, has been indicted
for conspiracy by the federal grand jury here.
The case against Fell is the outgrowth of a
recent investigation which resulted in the in
dictment of every member of the stock yards
firm of Swift 4 Co., for receiving freight
rate rebates from The Lackawanna. The
evidence against Fell is said to be convictinG.
This 10 the first case ON record where the
feoeral laws covering conspiracy have been
applied against railroad officials.
The punishment is tenfold more severe
than for violations of the interstate commerce
law. Conviction implies a fine of not less
than 5000, or imprisonment at hard labor
in the penitentiary for not less than two years.

The prospects are that the one hundred or

of extremely muddy road to contend with
during the thousand mile ride, but this will

LONDON, May 21.-LOrd Salisbury, in q
speech, which he delivered at Hastings, coun-
seled the workingmen to follow the example
set them by nations and substitute arbitra-
ton for the violent methods which were
sometimes adopted for settling labor dis
putes. He said that grave matter in which
the prosperity of the country was involved
was the question of free trade. England"
he declared, "only maintains the position
which she occupies by the vast industries ex-
isting here, but danger IS growing up.
Fifty years ago everybody believed that free
trade had conquered the world and prophe-
sled that every nation would follow the ex-
ample of England. The results, however, are
not what had been expected. Despite the
prophesles of the free trade advocates, for
eign nations are adopting protection. They
are excluding US from their markets and are
trying to kill our trade. And this state of
age of war tariffs. Another important point
is that while nations are negotiating to OBJ
tain each o hers commercial favor, none Is
anxious about the favor of Great Britain, be-
cause Great Britain has stripped herself of
the armor and weapons with which the battle
is to be fought. The attitude which We have
taken in regarding it as dlsloyal to the glori-
Gus and sacred doctrines of free trade to levy
duties on anybody for the sake of anything
We get thereby. ID not business like. Cheers.
On these terms you will not get anything If
you inteno to hold your own in this conflict
of tariffs you must be prepared to refuse ma
tions who injure you according to your mar
kets. We complain most of the United
States, and it SO happens that the United
States maintains and furnishes Us with arti-
cles which are essential to the good of the
people, and with raw material which is essen
tial to our manufacturers. We cannot ex-
clude either without injury to ourselves.
am not prepared, in order to punish other
countries, to intict dangerous wounds on
ourselves. We must contine ourselves to
those matters wherein we will not suffer
much whether importation continues or
diminishes. While We cannot raise the price
of food and raw material, there is an enor
nous mass of articles, such as wine, spirits,
silks, gloves and laces from countries besides
the United States which are merely luxuries,
and of which a diminished consumption
could be risked in order to secure access to
the markets of our nelghbors. shall expect
to be excommunicated for propounding such
q doctrine, but l am bound to say that
think the free-traders have gone too far"
