woman's ailments are cured by it. It's le-
gitimate medicine-not q beverage; an in
vigorating, restorative tonic and a soothing
and strengthening nervine, free from alcohol
and injurious drugs. 1t imparts tone and
vigor to the whole system.
For all functional irregularities, periodical
pains, organic displacements and uterine
diseases, it's positive remedy.
And guaranteed one. If it doesn't give
satisfaction, in every case, the money paid
for it is refunded. No other medicine for
women is sold on these terms.
That's because nothing else is just as

Perhaps the dealer will offer something
that's "better."
He means that it's better for him.

care whether he defrauds the importer
or dealer or the American consumer,
if only he can keep hold of the Aneri-
can market until the election of Cleve-
land and a democratic congress brings
a repeal of the tin-plate duty. lie
imagineS that the large contributions
which the democratic party has re
ceived and will receive from foreign
manufacturers will suffice to over
throw the American national policy
and to secure q democratic victory.
If he can hold on until his funds have
borne fruit in q congress and a prcsi-
dent devoted to his interests, he can
then repay himself at his leisure for
all losses.
In precisely the same way foreign
manufacturers of many kinds of wool
len and cotton goods are now lighting
to hold the American market by
fraudulent devices more audaCious and
dishonest than any heretofore attempt
ed. Qualities of goods are completely
changed, even many of which have>
long borne an honorable reputa ton.
The worst material is used instead of
the best, weights are fraudulently alter
ed, and in countless other ways the
manufacturers cOntrive to send hither
goods which can be sold as cheaply,
and which bear the same marks and
pretend to be of the same quality as
WellknOWn goods formerly sold here
at the same prices at which the genU-
inc articles were sold before the new
duties were imposed. The Government
may have something to do in this mat
ter, and the proper officers of the Gus
toms service will not be slow to pro-
tect American consumers against fraud
wherever they properly can. The new
administrative law gives them largely
increased power to that end, and for
that reason it is constantly denounced
by a class Of importers whose profits
depend upon the success of fraud. A
democratic administration, it is I'M
necessary to say, would find officials
who would be careful not to embaU-
Tass large contributors to democratic
funds
But the people will have something
to say. 1t is for them to decide
whether an act which is transferring
great industries to this country shall
be repealed or fraudulently defeated
by the selection of officials who are in
league with importers. If it is not
their choice to be cheated by foreign
manufacturers instead Of buying goods
which the sharp competition of Amcri-
can producers will compel each to fur
nish, in quality and in weight, accord
ing to the expectation Of buyers, they
know how to protect themselves by

PECK'S FIGURES.
They Were q Very Diaa greeabIe Surpris
Eiut They Are Entirely Correct.

Eut They Are Entirely Correct.
Albany, Sept 26-Labor Commits
sioner Peck intends to make things
lively for those who have questioned
the correctness of the figures in his
now famous report.
When asked as to the truth of the
statement that he had burned or cauS-
ed to be destroyed the individual re-
ports from which his report was COM
piled, he said:
"The papers have not been and will
not be destroyed, but Mr.. Anderson
and the other mugwumps, or anu
SnapperS, as they called themselves,
will not get them. [ obtained most OF
those reports on my personal pledge
that no names should be disclosed.
Il could not have obtained the data
otherwise as the law does not give me
power to require facts concerning any
mans private business. The same rule
holds good in all the states where
there are statistical bureaus and also
in obtaining figures for the United
States census.
I'm Massachusetts it is by statute
made Il misdemeanor to reveal such
facts. l wrote personal letters to
thousands of manufacturers who had
refused to send figures asked for in
my circular and on my promise to
keep their names secret they intrusted
me with the facts. l will not break
my plighted word, no matter what
will be the consequences 7 will UO 70
jail first.
LAS to the correctness of my figures
themselves they were a surprise-dis-
agreeable if you will, but a surprise
to me. [ had expected it to be all the
other way, and the first tabulation on
the silk industry was our way but
nine-tenths Of the others, both indi-
vidually and by trades, showed large
increases in both production and the
wages paid
1T was the most searching investi-
cation ever made in this state, and the
figures published are correct. They
are born out by those obtained by
Commissioner Wadlin, of Massachu-
sets, and by Commissioner Peele, of
Indiana, who is a staunch Democrat.
He, like myself, began the investigation
in the expectation of obtaining differ
ent results
Il worked on the line of facts OBJ
tanned from manufacturers, while he
took those obtained from the work
men themselves, yet our figures COIN
cided exactly"

Repudiates the Chicago
Tariff Plank.
Though a Democrat He Can't
Stand Such a Rank
Declaration.
He Cannot, He Says Unlearn
the Lessons of His
Whole Life.

To the Editor OF the American Econ
OmiSt: In common with many other
democrats | cannot follow the Leaders
of the party in denouncing republican
protection as 4 fraud upon the labor
of the great majority of the American
people for the benefit of a few; nor can
| subscribe to the doctrine that pro-
tectiye tariff is unconstitutional. L have
no pecuniary interest in manufactures,
but | know what protection has done
and is doing for this country. L, it
operates for the benefit of a few, [ am
not one of that few. I am one of the
many; one of the great majority bene
fitted by it, including those who Ic-
nounce it for the sake Of obtaining
political power.
If the leaders Of political party as
semble in national convention for tic
purpose Of nominating candidates fT
the presidency and yice-presidency
choose to stultfy themselves by faIsify-
ing history, they cannot expect to be
allowed by others who have any habits
of Independent thought and action.
The leading pundits who were lately
venton of the democratic party, adopt
ed by a tWo-thirds vote and against
the report of the committee on rcsOlI-
tons, the following us a plank in the
democratic platform.
I'VE denOunce republican protection
as 4 fraud upon the labor Of the great
majority Of the American people for
the benefit of Il law. We declare it
to be 4 fundamental principle Of the
democratic party that the federal GOV
eminent has no constitutional power 80
impose of revenue only. We demand
that the collection of such taxes be
limited to the necessities Of the govern
ment when honestly and economically
administered"
In drafting and voting for this resoIu
ton the members either showed denS
ignorance of American political history
or they manifested Il purpose to WIZ
votes by deceiying the voters. l can
not, at the bidding of these gentlemen,
unlearn the lessons of my whole fife.
The greater part of my long life has
been in the study of American political
history and constitutional law. If |
cannot claim to be an authority on
such subjects, | can point out to others
the true sources from which to devise
interpretations of the constitution.
Those sources are not to be found III
recent congressional speeches, whether
made by members Of one party or
another They are to be found in the
interpretations given to the constitu-
ton ny the first congress, by Washing
tons administration, and by the SuC-
cceding administrations of Jefferson.
Madison, John Quincy Adams aud
Jackson.
/ have been requested by the secre-
tary of the American Protective Tariff
league to give my views of the pro-
tectiye issue, as it has been made by
the two parties in the present cam
paign. This | shall Go in 4 communica-
ton addressed to him, of which he will
make such use as he sees fit. | am.

AMERICA VS.. EUROPE.
Richfeld Springs, Sept. 10.

An Illustration Showing for Whom the
Democrats are Working.
An Illustration of the kind of compe.
tition which American industries have
to meet, and of the frauds to which
consumers in this country are exposed
when dependent upon foreign work,
discloses at the same time the convic-
ton of foreign manufacturers regard
ing the tariff on tin-plates. 1t is quite
unnecessary to say that the hard-head-
ed WclShmen do not cheat themselves
with the ideas which free trade news
papers in this country ureteDd to en-
terrain.
The Metal Worker, q trade journal
conducted by the publisher of The Iron
Age, explains clearly why it is that
American consumers of tin-plates have
had occasion for some months past to
find so much fault with conSignments
from abroad. Not only is the quality
changed, so that in answer to orders
for plates of a certain grade an in
ferior grade with the accustomed
brands is often sent, but there is de-
liberate fraud in the weight. The
Metal Worker says:
We have before us a letter dated in
Wales, in which the proposition is
made to reduce the weight of one of
the guaranteed ternes from 100 pounds
to the box to 10S pounds. and to re-
dice its quality in other particulars as
well. ''In this way" says the manu-
facturer, eve could reduce the price"
SO much; land as we are gradually to
lose the trade, we may as well supply
the cheaper grade of plates while we
can"
This manufacturer does not fool him
self with the notion that American
plates can never be produced under
the new tariff. Nor is this proposal
an empty one, for it is stated in regard
to recent importations that:
Plates are supposed to weigh 112
pounds to the box, for example. are
being sent out by the manufacturers
weighing only 10S, 1O4, and even as
little as 100 pounds to the box. An
extreme instance to which our atten-
ton has been called shows bright
plates at so pounds to the box, and
another $50 pounds for 20 by IS,
equivalent to rs pounds to the common
box. A statement that reached
us only few days since from an i'm
porter who is thoroughly conversant
with conditions in Wales at the present
time was to the effect that all but a
very small percentage of the plates
that are at present being imported
are of the Hght-weight variety.
The Welsh manufacturer does not

GENERAL PROSPERITY.
Cold Facts Found in Dunn's Commercial
Report.

The commercial agency of r. G.
Dunn & Co. adds its testimony to the
general evidence of the prosperity of
American manufactures, by saying in
its weekly report:
Manufacturers in this country have
never been in better condition on the
whole than that which reports now
indicate. All textile branches are pro
ducing more and consuming more ma
terial than ever, and the demand has
rarely pressed so closely on the supply.
Most wooden mills are running night
and day to meet orders, and cotton
mills are crowded, while stocks OF
goods in sight are phenomenaIy low
1t is enough to say of the wooden manu-
facture that sales at the three chief
markets since the middle of May have
been 1O4,453,OOO pounds Of wool
against S3,O05,0OO last year, an increase
of 25.S per cent

RIGHT AT HOME.
Madison's Democratic Council Forced to
Advance Wages.


Wisconsin State Journal: Democrats
in Wisconsin who are wondering
whether the report of Labor Commits
SiCner Peck is true should bear in mind
the fact that the unanimous report Of
the senate investigation committee sub
Stimulated everything Mr.. Peck's re-
port said. More than that, the report
of the democratic labor commissioner
of Wisconsin will tell the same story
OF increases in wages, Of course it is
not expected that the report of the
Wisconsin commissioner will see day
light until after election, but the figures
will show increases when the report
does come out. Facts all about us
warrant everything that the reports of
increased wages ard decreased cost of
living show. The democratic common
council of the city of Madison found
it necessary this season to increase
the wages of laboring men at work on
city improvements from 81 so to 81 *
per day, and then men could not be OBJ
tanned to do the work Talk about no
increases in wages! Why, how long
ago was it that workers in this city
were paid Sl.25 a day and We're plenty
at those figures? Now S1.75 a day is
paid, aud 81 day is demanded for
short time jobs.
But democrats say scarcity of men
does it not protection" But what
causes the scarcity of men? 1t is in
creased industrial activity and increas-
ed production of wealth, which protec.
ton to home industry brings.

Its Manufacture in This Country Estab-

1t is no longer to be denied that the
manufacture of tin plate is successfully
established here, and for a new in
dustry its progress has been remark
able. The HaZen company of Cincin-
natl, according to the Times-Star of

ly the largest order thus far given for
American tin plate. 1t is for 5000
boxes L. G. bright coke tin plate, 1 *
20, and 1000 boxes of the same quality
20x2S, suitable for the manufacture of
cans. The plate is to be manufactured
at Elwcod, Ind, and will require a
train of 26 cars to transport it to Chi
cago, where the firm ordering it does
business, The manufacture on such a
large scale must give employment TO
a great many hands.

has written to the East Africa com

the evacuation of Uganda by the COM

dangers that would arise from an i'm

government was swilling to give the
company pecuniary assistance in order
that it might prolong the occupation
for three months.
The responsibility for the measure
of evacuation, however, would entirely
