The Russian Heir to Marry.

The czarowitz, the heir of all the Rus
sias, is betrothed to the Princess Alice Of
Hesse-D Darmstadt, the youngest daughter
of the Princess Alice of Great Britain
and granddaughter of Queen Victoria
The young lady is just 81, and though
her father, who died last year, was moi
much of a man her mother will be re.
membered as the princess who died from
diphtheria communicated by kissing her
sick child. When the eldest daughter
of this family was married, the queen
and the Prince of Wales went over tc
Germany to attend the wedding. The
festivities were magnificent. The Grand
Duke Of Hesse-Darmstadt chose that
time to take refuge in a distant corner
Of his palace and contract morganatic
marriage with Russian noblewoman.
The czarowitz is 20, and he is the
young man who was nearly murdered
in Japan about a year ago, owing his
life to the ready sword of his cousin
George of Greece. Besides being heir tc
the throne Of Russia, a prospective su.
preme head of the great Greek orthodox
church, the czarowitz is colonel of 9

The PuzzIing Case of All wing.

"Well, this stumps me-" said Lawyer
G.. w. Stapleton the other day as he con.
cluded the reading of a letter from All
Wing. Chinaman who is serving a life
sentence in the Deer Lodge penitentiary.
All Wing wrote Mr.. Stapleton that he
was in for life, and wanted to know
what effect the Geary law would have
upon him. The law provides that all
Cinnamon should register at certain
time-May g. If they are not registered
at that time they shall be deported. All
Wing says the prison authorities would
not let him out to register, and he will
be perfectly satisfied to go back to China
This is condition which the trainers
of the law hardly looked for, and it is
likely the supreme court will be called
upon to settle the point. All Wing
killed three of his countrymen in Bea.
verhead county three years ago.-Butte

Plumber. R..sntad doks.


At the FIRST session Of the national con-
vention Of master plumbers, held in
Milwaukee recently, Major Middleton,
one of the delegates, before the session
opened hung some decorations on the
wall rejecting in q joking. pointed man
ner on what he seemed to consider the
weakness of his trade. Two of the dec
orations were illustrated verses Eatiriz-
ing the plumber. One showed in water
colors upon large piece of canvas a
plumber in house dividing his time be-
tween his job and the hired girl, the title
of which was Tho Giddy Plumber.
The other showed the plumber after he
had been kicked ont Of the house. Un-
der the gallery in the rear Of the hall
was the third decoration in the form Of
plumbers bill for work, purporting To
show the exorbitant charges master
plumbers make.
Just before the adjournment Of the
forenoon session Delegate Weldon OF
Pittsburg drew the attention of the con-
vention to these features. In bitter terms
he denounced them and said they would
have to be taken down or he would re.
fuse to sit in the hall. "That picture,
he said, pointing to 'The Giddy Plumb
er," is a libelous outrage on this associa,
ton, and will not tolerate it. The in.
tent of the placard in the rear of the hall
is to slur the honesty Of master plumb.
ers and is out of place here. I demand,
Mr.. President, that these decorations be
removed"
Exclamations of approval were heard
on every side, and Immediately after ad.
journment the pieces of canvas were
hauled down.-Cor. Chicago Inter Ocean.

The financial furry, causes, as we
believe, by the single gold standard,
and the government purchases of silver
payable in gold, has not only paralyzed
wool, but almost everything else. The
American Wool Reporter, In the wool
market which we publish, is of the
opinion that tariff does not cut the
slightest figure in the matter. And it
does not, In wool, any more than it
does In the failure of Gov. Foster.
But each community has few "cq D.
pers," who are all mouth, and have
about as much brain as lobster. They
have talked down wool every wear and
are busy at their old "buncon game
this year. They care nothing for the
wool grower. There never was q wear
they would not rob him for the manu-
facturer's gain. People shouldn't sell
their wool to such people, and Just in
vite them to take seat in the big stye
when they open their jaw this wear.
This Is no time to sell wool. The grow
er should hold it until business affairs
become normal,

The PEOPLE TWICE ROBBED.

In the Matter of Hat Trimmings. Who
Should Get the Refunded Duties9
How the protective tariff works loss to
the people is illustrated by the hat trim
mings case finally decided. The law i'm
posed a certain duty on hat trimmings,
and the custom house officials appointed
In the protectionist interest labored to
bring them under schedule that would
greatly increase the duty. The import
ers protested and went to the courts to
get the excess of duty refunded to them.
Meanwhile they sold the trimmings to
the public at prices that covered the in
crease Of cost caused by the improper
ruling Of thecustom house officials. This
courts said the importers were right,
and the excess of duty must be refunded
by the government.
The treasury department under Presi-
dent Harrison continued to look at the
matter from the protected manufacture
er's point of view and kept the import
ers waiting by prolonging legal pro-
ceedings. Some $4,000, 900 has been re-
funded, but there remains $s,000,0O0 to
misunderstanding Foster says $685.
100000. Whatever sum is repaid to the
complaining importers will of course
come out Of the pockets of the taxpaying
consumers, who long ago paid this ex-
cess of duties when they bought their
hats.
The injustice to the consumers is man
ifest. 1t would have been avoided if it
were the policy of the customs officials
to give the consumer the benefit of the
lower rate of duty whenever there is
question as to which of two duties the
law means to prescribe. Such has not
been the policy of the customs sdminis-
tration, because the tariff has been work
ed in the interest of protected manufac-
turers. and for the latter high rate fix
ed by executive order is as good as like
rate made by congress. Protectionists
in the customs service, or officials in that
service appointed at the instance Of pro-
tectionists, are hardly safe custodians of
the public interests as respects rates OF
duty-that is to say, the interests of the
consuming masses Of the people.
1t may be asked whether the millions
of dollars of tariff tax to be refunded un.
der the courts decision. ought to go to
the importer or to theforeigner who sold
him the hat trimmings If, as our Re-
publican friends think. the foreigner pays
the tariff tax, the money ought clearly
to go to the foreigner. II, is money paid
by him improperly into our treasury,
and the American importer has no title
to it. The Republican idea is that the
foreigner knocks the amount of the tax
off his wholesale price, so that foreign
goods are sold here as low as abroad
This being the case, it is hard to see
where the protection comes in or why
the manufacturer wants a tariff. But
the fact, everybody knows, is the other
way. The tariff is to put prices up. and
it does it, and when the importer gets
the excess of duties On hat trimmings
refunded to him there is nothing said Of
his sending the cash over to Europe
