SETTING NIAGARA FALLS At
WORK.

This unitarian age. Niagara Falls
will not much longer remain simply
spectacular attraction, but will be
made to earn it's own living by actual
labor. Already work has been inaugu
rated on the American side to devel-
OPP and utilize the great water power.
A tunnel is in process Of construction
pected. The news now comes that
the water power of Horseshoe Falls
has been leased by the Ontario gov
eminent. 1t is to be developed by
tunnels and raceways in the same
manner as upon the American side.
Indeed the company that is to under
take the work is practically the same
as the one now engaged in the enter
prise upon this side. Although there
are two companies they have in large
part the same officers and members.
AS result of the newly announced
lease, real estate on the Canadian side
of the river has taken a sudden rise.
Land three Or four miles back in the

chasers for agricultural purposes a
few weeks ago at $50 an acre, is now
eagerly snapped up by American and
English capitalists at $500 or $500 an
acre. The Bentley estate of forty
acres on the river front has been with
in a few days to American buyers for
$4,000 The canadian Power Com
pany" proposes to begin the work on
or before May 1, 1897, and to have
proceeded SO far with it by Novem
Der, 1898, as to have completed water
connections for developing $4,000
horse power, and have actually ready
for use and transmission 10000 horse
power. The capital stock of the COM
pany is not to exceed So, 100000. From
the date set for beginning operations
on the Canadian side it is evident that
the American part of the enterprise
is to be attended to first. That is
wise. A great many people will feel
genuine regret at having picturesque
Niagara Falls compelled to turn mill
wheels and shafting.

cation also claims to separate the

be backed by affidavits of fraud and
violence at the first caucus. At Brat

Atkins made one of his hardest fights,
sending in force of his best workers
and changing off all the railroad men
so as to have all the democrats in the
caucus, he mustered only IS support
ers in caucus numbering 400. The
fight, by order of the head center at
Montpelier, it is said, was made very
ugly and bitter against Davenport,
and the democrats answered it by
giving him rousing reception when
he rose to speak. Captain Chubb and
solid anti-Atkins delegation come
from Thetford. tits plain that one
side or the other is fearfully mistaken
in it's calculations. Having. ALI the
machinery of the organization in his
possession, Mr.. Atkins figures natur-
ally receive the stronger backing
among the outside public. The con-
vention will be swept by equatorial
storms, according to present indica-
tions, and will be an occasion of rare
interest to those seeking relief from
political ennui.

The public debt Of the United States
has been paid during the last ten
years at the rate of 100000, 900 per
year. The greatest proportion has
been paid during President Harrison's
term, the surplus revenues being used
to buy bonds of the Government in
the open markets. During Cleve-

CHEAPNESS.

We do not want it. 1t costs too
much. Every "cheap coat' repre-
sents certain amount of misery and
suffering. The merchant who buys
s|cheap" clothes for himself or family
decreases the purchasing power of
his own customers.
The manufacturer who buys only
"cheap" raw material and necessaries
of life would lessen the market for his
own goods.
Nor is there any inconsistency in
decrying "cheapness" and at the
same time favoring low-prioes.
There a reasonable limit that is de-
sirable, but to go beyond which is
suicidal
The laborer and capitalist should
each have reasonable return for his
labor and risk. Each is dependent on
the other.
The wonderful progress and pros
perity of the United States is due to
it's splendid home market, the pur
chasing power of which depends on
high wages.
The making of "cheap" things
means starvation wages and no pur
chasing power.
Nothing is cheap when we have
nothing with which to buy.
Producers of one article are con-
sumers of another and to cripple one
is too equally affect the other. We
must have good, fair prices if we
would keep up our standard of wages.
The Free-Traders' cry for 'cheap-
ness" is delusion. The "cheap loaf'
becomes stale for want of buyer.
We have no use for "cheapness'' in
this country of high wages, good liv-
ing, comfortable homes, happy fire
sides and general prosperity.
In China they have more simon
pure cheapness than anywhere else in
the world. 1t might be good thing
to ship few shiploads of our Ameri-
can apostles of cheapness over there.
1t would be a sure cure for the mania.
