The Republicans may not have such
an uproariously jolly time at Hunting

they will be much more comfortable
and will dispose of their work in a more

How ABSURD d the Republican argument that
taxing an article makes Il cheaper. -ReIster.
There is no such Republican argu-
ment. Republicans do hold that taxing
the products Of foreign pauper labor is
q protection to the products Of Ameri-
can labor and builds up industries, and
by creating home competition cheapens
the products to the consumers. The
wages are paid to American laborers,
who spend their money in America,
and arc not sent abroad to support for
eisn countries. The tariff is only a tax
to those who prefer to buy foreign
goods. The American article Just as
good is much cheaper and there is no
tax. Many articles are purchased here
at less than the duty.

The report of Hon. FRANK n. MASON,
United States consul general to Ger
many, for the quarter ended June 30,
1892, is an instructive object lesson, but
is only n Of the numerous object les
sons Of the kind afforded by our con
sular and treasury reports from month
to month. They all demonstrate the
utter falsityot the prophecies made by
Democratic free traders that the pas
sage Of the Mckinley bill would ruin
our foreign trade, and prohibit u peo-
pie from buying ~wheresoeycr they
choose.
The 1NrELIroEScER has frequently
presented statistical information to
show that since the passage of the Nc
Kinley bill the balance of commercial
trade ia largely in favor of the United
States, and that our own ports have not
been closed to our European neighbors;
that they have no cause, In fact to com.
plain. Tho report above, referred to
shows that tho total exports from the
German ports to this country during
the quarter named amounted in value
to $e,eO2, 1880, an increase OF s125,639,-
So, over the same quarter Of 1891. Re-
ports from other countries make a sim
liar showing.
All this goes to show that the Bepub-
lican tariff isn't the Chinese wall bar
ring out foreign trade that free traders
would have us believe it is.

ANOTHER FIRE.
Continuation of the Epidemic of Blazes at
milwaukee.

Confirmation of the Epidemic of Blazes at
milwaukee,.
MILWAUKEE, Dec. 2S.-At two O'Clock this
morning bomb was thrown into the main
building of the south side plant of the Mil
waukee Street Railway company and tre-
mendous explosion followed. In mo-
ment the interior of the building was
ablaze. and i'll few minutes the fire was
beyond control, and in less than an hour
the entire plant was consumed, entailin & Il
loss of half million. The plant included
an immense storage stable for the electric
motors. machine shops and stables. The
sixty horses that we're in the stables were
gotten out alive. The company is crippled
by the fire for time. 1t is supposed that
the man who threw the bomb was the fire
bug who started dozen other disastrous
blazes within a month.
Tho mavor this afternoon offered re-
ward of S., 500 for the arrest OF the persons
who had started any fires since the big fire
on Oct. %, or any futute fire for the next
thirty days. He also decided to add 100
men to the police force for night duty. Two
moro bodies were found in the ruins of yes
terday's tannery fire. One was that of
Stephen Treaderl, a tanner, and the other
was unknown.
To-day a number of fire assurances COM
panies gave orders to cease writing insur-
ance on the manufacturing plants of this
citv.
Chief of Police HANSEN, after q thorough
examination, is satisfied that the fire which
this morning destroyed 100000 worth of
the Milwaukee Street Railway company g
property was caused by a car stove which
was overheated.

ARGOSIES NUMEROUS.

Will Fleck the Sen Carrying tho American
Navigation Company's Pennon.
SAN Francisco, Dec. 23.-This afternoon
the directors of the North American Navis
CATION company met and completed their
organization by the election of officers.
Capt. w. l.. Merry was chosen president
and 6snfE. Haswell, Jr., secretary. 10 was
also decided that the steamers OF the COM
pany should begin running Feb. 15 next.
on which date it is claimed that no less
than five lines, all connecting with the
Panama Railroad company, will be put In
operation. These five lines will include
French line. running from Rthe isthmus 30
France; the Royal Mail. connecting with
Southampton. in England; tho Italian line.
running to Italy; the Panama Steamship
Company's line, which will conneot with
New York, and another line of vessels Of
the same company running to New Orleans.
1.-The decision OF Justice Ingrabam. of
New York, in the case of the Pacific Mail
company" said one of the officers Of the
North American company to-day, does
not at all affect the North American Navi-
CATION company. The injunction which
was prayed for. and which has been
granted. restrains the Panama Railway
company from making any local oonneo-
tion with the Chilian line, from Valparaiso
on the south to Acapulco on the north.
This injunction means shat the local buai-
ness of the west cannot be exclusively given
to any one. "

COPIES OF CORRESPONDENTS.

gress-Cause of Reinnch's Death.
PARIS, Dec. 29.--The Figaro says book
containing copies of the correspondence
with Herr and Arton relating to votes in
the senate and chamber of deputies in be-
half of the Panama canal scheme, were
found in the Office OF the Panama Canal
company. 1t is said they compromiss a
largo number of senators and deputies.
There ara letters demanding money, to-
gether with dates on which payment was
made. They will be made the basis of ad-
ditional prosecution. The documents es-
tabl;sh the fact that the blackmailer was
the go-between in the corruption OF legis-
lRtors. The extreme socialists are again
active. meeting of leaders decided to
summon the people to meet when the
chambers reRssembe and appeal to the
army not to take arms against the people.
The official report of DIR. Bouardel who
had charge of the autopsy on the body of
Baron Rsinach was made public to-day.
He declares that the analysis of the stom-
ach reveals not tho slightest trace of Ioi-
son. The conclusion reached is that death
was due to natural causes. The report is
regarded with suspicion from certain quar-
ters.
Many persons openly express the belief
that Baron de Reinach was murder ed and
the official report to the contrary does not
shake their belief. Against all these. how
ever, stands the reputation of DIR. Brouar-
del. those who know him declare that
nothing the government could offer him
would induce him to attach his name to u
false report. and if such report was secretly
decided upon he would not in any way be a
party to it. The report was eagerly dis
cussed and is taken to end the question as
to the baron's death. DeReinaon's family,
it is supposed, will accept the report as
final, us it removes from the baron the
stigma of suicide.

would Have Been a Fake.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2s.-There isa sensa-
tional rumor going the rounds of the sport
ing fraternity of this city to the
effect that the mach between McAu-
life and Burge, for which the Coney
Island club recently offered u $45, 600 purse
aud subsequently withdrew it, was so be a
gigantic fake. The story has created no
end of gossip here and is apparently based
on facts. The superstition that the contest
was to be a prearranRed affair is strength
ened by the fact that Judge Newton, the
match maker of the club, has inti-
mated TO some persons that he
heard that Burge was to ''lay dawn to
the American champion. ana for these
reasons he refused to have anything to do
with the men. Newton. when interviewed
this evening. refused to either confirm or
deny the rumor. He. however spoke as
though he had suspected something was
suspicious about Burgess actions, and for
this reason alone he had withdrawn the
purse, TO save the reputation of the club
and the public from being imposed upon.

MONTANA EDUCATORS.
A Large Majority in Favor of One Gre
Unfveysity.

Large Majority in Favor of One Great
University.
MrssouLA. Dec. 2S.-TSpecial. AT to-
days session of tho State Teachers asso.
citation the question of the advisability of
consolidation of all state educational insti-
tutions came up. The question has been
discussed among members of the associa-
tion for two days, and it is evident that the
friends of consolidation are largely in the
majority. This afternoon Prof. Temple
ton was assigned to open the discussion on
tie subject, and state the relation of normal
schools to state university. He argued
that normal school should be classed with
other state institutions and located at the
same place. President Ried. of Deer Lodge
college. took the same position. The only
opposition came from Prof. Riley, of Butte;
J. M. Simpson, of Deer Lodge, and N. D.
Leehey. of Butte.
President E. A. Steere, of Dillon. deliv-
cred the annual address, taking as his SUBJ
ject. Better Education and How 1t May
Be Secured" He compared education in
the United States and Europe, and made q
point in favor of compulsory education.
More money should be supplied and longer
time be given. Teachers should have paid
instructors. Higher qualifications and
progressive certificates should be demanded
of teachers. He held that female teachers
should receive the same pay as males when
they held the same grade of certificates and
performed the same duties. Provision
should be made for city superintendents,
and county and state superintendentss should
have special qualification other than polit-
ical influence.
President Steere was followed by Prof.
A. g. III. Frazer, of Deer Lodge, on the sub.
jeot. THE Claims of the Classics" He
ad vocnted at length close study of the
classics. Throughout the history of the
past mans nature has been essentially the
same. The sane questions have agitated
the people, though perhaps in less com
plex form. thus giving a better opportu-
nifty for their study. The study of the
classics gave an opportunity to better I'M
derstand and compare the different types
of character in the human family.
The discussion that followed was inter-
esting and instructive. VIM. NJ. Weeks. of
Miles City, took rather different view OF
the subject. He thought that Prof. Frazer
magnified things somewhat; that while ad-
mitting classical education in many re-
speots good adjunct to higher educa-
tion. it is not a necessity.
At the close OF the discussion committees
were appointed. The committee on reso-
lutions is composed of Prof A. l.. Stone, OF
Anaconda; Prof. J. @. Mahoney. of Silver
Star, and Prof. H. G. Ostein. of Livingston.
