JOHN T. DENvIR's CRITICISM.

There is nothing that so manifests the
character of a man as his attempt at criti-
cism. He would like to pose as the great
authority of the game, since Al. Dunlap has
Joined the majority. We have shown con-
clusively and furnished data to prove that
he is not capable of that high position.
before the public in his true character he
seeks to belittie us with the poorest attempt
at criticism that any man who had respect
for himself would stoop to. As to our ac-
ceptance of Mr.. Johnstone's challenge we
have this to state to the great champion of
the Northwest: That Mr.. Johnstone was not
the author of what appeared over his name.
Denvir used his name, and jackson in turn
throws it on another friend Very few have
much confidence in any statement coming
from such q source

the earliest news Of this contest that is

CHARLES F. BARKER's POSITION.

In a letter to Mr.. Joseph Brown, of Woon-
socket, R. l.. the American champion states
that it was not his place to challenge Mr..
Wyllie." Mr.. Brown and some others inter-
pret the above sentences: ''That Mr.. Barker
is the champion of the world and as such it
is not his place to challenge anyone. If Mr..
Wyllie wants the title he must address him.
self to Mr.. Barker" We do not believe that
Mr.. Barker's position can be so defined. In
February of 1888 Mr.. Barker addressed a let
ter from Boston to Robert Mccall, of Glas-
gov, q reply to challenge from Mr.. Smith,
the late English champion. In putting his
signature to that communication he added
"Champion Checker Player of Great Britain
and America" We have yet to see an in
stance where Mr.. Barker assumes the title
which belongs in justice to another. What
meaning could he give to his statement In
conversation to the DISPATCH representative
at the match in Chicago, in September, 1891?
When asked il he would challenge Mr..
Wyllie he (Mr Barker) said: 81 will not
challenge the old man. l will let him wear
his well-earned laurels to the grave" etc.
We interpreted that sentence, not as assum-
ing the title of worlds champion, but of al
lowing Mr.. Wyllie to hold the honor Of the
title while he lived. If Joseph Brown &
Co.'S definition of Mr.. Barker's position is
correct, we have our opinion of the kind Of
spirit that would make such an assumption,
based on such injustice as the Wyllie for
feiture. The true American spirit was that
which prompted our fellow citizen to make
good the loss Of the 500 to the aged veteran,
James Wyllie, who is we are proud to ac-
knowledge, the draughts champion of the
world.-Checker Editor.

The Tin Plate Industry.

The next move of the Democratic House.
in its policy of attacking American indus
tries, will be the passage of bill to remove
the protective duty from American tin
plate. The proposed measure provides for
reducing the duty to one cent pound after
Oct. /, 1892, and that tin plate shall be
admitted free of duty after October, 1894
This movement reviyes the stereotyped
Democratic assertion that no tin plate is
made or can be made in this country.
The facts, however, show that as much
progress has been made in the manufacture
of tin plate since the new tariff went into
effect as could have been expected from any
industry requiring so large an outlay for
buildings, machinery, and manufacturing
plant in general The Manufacturer and
Iron World, a reliable, non-partsan trade
paper, states that the production OF bright
tin plate in the United States last year was
not less than 100000 pounds, this being
exclusive of the production OF dull tin or
terne plates, for roofing purposes, which
reached a high figure. Under date of Jan.
9 last the Timed Plate Manufacturers
association published "A list of no less than
33 American concerns which are success
fully making tin plate When in full oper-
alton these factories will have a capacity
of 10000 boxes a week 4 Republican
Senate and President fortunately stand be
tween these manufacturers and those who
would kill the new industry before it has
had square chance to get on its feet.
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1892-04-15

The House of Representatives passed
last Saturday bill putting cotton bagging,
cotton ties and cotton gins on the free list,
thus giving the lie to the Democratic claim
that it is the policy of that party to remove
the duty on raw materials, leaving manu-
featured alone till this is accomplished.
The Rev. James +. Spalding, whose jump
from Episcopalianism to Catholicism and
back again has lately excited comment was
a school teacher in Northampton, Mass,
about the year 1869. The school was the
Round Hill school for boys and the chief
master was Prof Josiah Clarke, who for
many years was the honored principal of
Williston seminary. 1t was in Northamp-
ton that Mr. Spalding was converted to
Episcopaliansm.
In the Jersey City municipal election,
held on Tuesday the corrupt ring, which
has long ruled the city, was routed after a
hard fight, and the Republican candidate
for mayor was elected by majority of
1900. At the charter election held in Rah-
way, y. j., the same day the Republicans
swept the city, carrying all four wards and
gaining complete control of the city for the
first time in Is years. There is no doubt
about this being Republican year.
