lucky last year." said q prominent
New York lawyer to reporter for
the Evening News, and I was very
much surprised at the liberal use of
money.
Way out there one hundred miles
from Louisville and one hundred and
twenty-five miles from Cincinnati could
be found handsomely dressed young
men and old men, who showed that
they had never been accustomed to
hard work, fourishing th~ir bills like
SO much paper. They were not city
chaps, but country born and bred. l
could not understand it. There are no
manufacturing interests there to speak
of, no mining, nothing but agriculture,
y pursuit which requires the hardest
of manual labor; yet thee men sported
as soft palms as the highest bred city
folk. Further than that, they hal
plenty of money and used it literally.

problem until one day my host took me
behind his house, pointed to large fields

work very hard for it either. The prin-

''The problem was solved. Where

But that which surprised me tho
most was the amount of gambling that

men at those county fairs shake money

hundreds, offer their bets and take tho

STEEL COTTON TIES.

"A Industry That Democratic Tariff
Tinkors Would Like to Destroy.
Eep York Press
American manufacturers OF steel and
iron cotton ties are not worried over
the bill introduced in Congress to place
these articles on the free list, as they
have no fear that the bill will become
law. Should such an une expected event
happen, however, it would destroy an
industry which employs thousands OF
men and circulates millions OF money,
and would result in benefiting not a
single American citizen. for the ties are
sold cheaper hero now than they arc
sold abroad, and their price has oven
been reduced since the Mckinley Tariff
bill went into effect,
"Stcol cotton ties" said Mr.. A. R.
Whitney, one OF the largest dealers in
them in America, "camc into this
country first under patents owned by
McComb. They then sold as high as
I cents per pound. Prior to the Nc
Kinley bill We sold the tics for 2-l0
cents per pound. The duty. was then
IS per cent ad valoren, equal to about
Sll per ton. The Mckinley law adj
vanced the duty to $33 per ton, and
since its passage wo have reduced the
price to 2 cents per pound,
"This is lower than the imported ties
were ever sold in this country, and
lower than they arc laid down in any
OF the marketa whore they are used. II

THE TRUE INwARDNEss

or tho Democratic Kick Against Hill.
Clcvoland's 8I!stnIte.
N7u YORK Pnss
The Press was the first newspaper to
call attention to the impudent attempt
OF the Cleveland managers to humbug
tho public with the protense that tho.
present revolt against Hill was inspired
by great "moral influences" 1t thor
oughly exposed tho ridiculous sham OF
the Cleveland contention that tho action
OF the Democratic malcontents was in
any sense real protest against party
bossism and corruption; and 1t has had
the satisfaction OF seeing the exposure
repeated In the columns OF the Republi-
can press OF the state.
No testimony has been uttered, how
ever, which condemns the Cleveland
fraud moro explicitly and strongly
than tho following words from Harpcr's
Weekly, which has long been one OF tho
ablest and most courageous OF Mr..
Cleveland's advocates:
with incredible blindness, from tho
party point OF view, Mr.. Cleveland and
his friends united at the last election
with Tammany Hall and Governor Hill
to secure result which enormously
strengthened tho Hill-Tammany power,
and by all received party rules and Gus.
toms lott Mr.. Hill and Tammany Hall
misrepresentation Of the regular Demo-
cratic party in New York. II is strik-
ing fact, however, that the first conse-
.quenco OF Democratic success-thc mon
strous outrage OF Hill upon free govern
mcnt in the theft OF the senate OF the
state-did not apparently. distress the
Cleveland wing OF tho Democracy. 1t
was tremendous blow at fundamental
rights, n crime against the people, but
it was an apparent party advantage,
and not only was no emphatic Demo.
cratic protest made, no indignation
meeting called and no "revol:" begun
against the boss whose power tho cleo
ton had confirmed, but he was proiuse-
ly and publicly praised for his great
services to tho party by at least ono OF
