themselves on record in good time to
have it proven that they do not know
what they are talking about. The re-
cent movements of the steel rail trust
and the plate glass trust have exposed
the false pretenses OF manufacturers in
these lines so thoroughly that no one
will be deceived by an outcry of these
combines made through their head work
ingmen. This tariff is all right so far as
manufactures are concerned, and work
ingmen will get more benefit from it
than any other class. They have been
enjoying the. other style of tariff for
several months mast

Apropos of the ruin OF Indiana indus
tries by the reduction of the tariff We
note an interesting report in the Phila-
deiphia Press that 1.-The dissolution of
the plate-glass trust last week has al
ready caused a decline of 20 per cent
in the price of the product. The Pitts
have been responsible for the brea king
up of the trust because it claimed it
did not receive its share of orders"
The Press is a consistent high-tariff or
gan, but it occasionally prints an item
that must have a tendency to open the
eyes of its readers. The last plate
glass trust was quite as obnoxious as
the old one

POLITICS AND HAWAII

One of our southern contemporaries
the Atlanta National, has become pos
sessed of some unique and rather start
ling views on the Hawaiian question.
In the course of its lonesome occupation
of disseminating republican views in
Georgia it has arrived at the conclusion
that the colored brother is the chief
factor in America, and it sees in the
Hawaiian question the nomination Of
Gresham for the presidency in dS96 by
the democratic party. 1t says:
Secretary Gresham's action in the
Hawaii matter has immensely popular
lied him with the southern negroes; and
the negro bishops, preachers and poll
ticians will favor him, because they
allege Gen. Gresham favors home rule
and government by the native popuIa-
ton in the Sandwich islands, and as the
natives in Hawaii are almost wholly
colored people it touches them very
sympathetically while. under the lead of
the Louisville Courier-Journal, the south
ern whites are appealed to by the cry
against 'carpet-baggism," and that
Gresham opposes 'carpet-baggism,
whether applied to the South or Hawaii.
Gresham takes the position that a mere
handful of imported "carpet-baggers'
cannot set up a pretended republic" in
Hawaii and overthrow a government of
the natives.
This is certainly a very ingenious
theory, and If Secretary Gresham gains
the favor of both the whites and the
negroes in the South he would stand an
excellent chance for the democratic
nomination. But we fear that the
National is not altogether reliable in
for the republican nomination, and it
seems to be using the Gresham popu-
larity as an argument for the nominal
ton Of it's man. 1t proceeds with its
observation thus:
If ex-Minister Lincoln had been in
Honolulu Gresham never could have
made this cutlery against "alien rule and
carpet-baggery, and the man to con-
front him before the American people is
Robert T. Lincoln, who was a model
official, both at home, as secretary of
war under Arthur. and as minister
abroad under Harrison. Gen. Harrison
says anybody could have carried Ohio"
which is true; but the most material in
quiry is who can carry Illinois, Indiana,
Wisconsin and Minnesota In the West,
and New York, New Jersey and Con-
necticut in the East, and the answer is
Robert Il. Lincoln.
If Mr.. Lincoln can carry these six
states all he has to do is to mention the
fact and he will get the republican nomi-
nation. And. in fact. the republicans
could do much worse than to nominate
Lincoln. and the democrats much worse
than to nominate Gresham.

RAILWAY DISASTER IN ITALY.
Thirteen Dead Removed from the
Wreck and Many Injured.

MILAN, Nov. 29.-An express train,
bound from this city to Venice, came
into collision at 3 o'clock this morning
with heavy freight train which was
stationary on the rails at the limits of
the first station between Milan and
Treveglio. Thirteen dead bodies have
been removed from the wreck and twen-
ty wounded people have been brought
to the hospital of this city from the
scene of the disaster.
Later-A dispatch from Milan says
that forty-three persons were killed and
1873 injured by the collision ct Limitro
station. Nearly every passenger on the
train was more or less injured II is
stated that majority of the killed and
injured were emigrants, who were going
to America by the way of Venice.

A contemporary offers valuable sug-
gestion for taxation in this statement:
ITO rich Englishnen the income tax is
not the most irritating form of taxa
tion- No one in England can keep a
man servant without paying a license
of 81 a year. or SIG if the servant is a
gamekeeper. Only the other day the
Hon. George Keppel, a younger son of
the earl of Albemarle, was convicted in
a London police court of keeping a but
Ter without a license and compelled to
Choose between paying a fine of $25 or
going.to prison for a few days" The
city council should make a note Of this.
People with men servants wear out the
streets more than others because these
employees are usually engaged in driv-
ing their employers carriages. A tax
on men servants would be a highly
popular thing in Indianapolis, and would
help the new administration in its COM
mendable efforts at economy.

AS The Sentinel predicted. the feat
ure Of the tariff bill which attracts
most criticism is the sugar schedule.
Tariff reformers do not like the bounty
features, or the remaining quarter of a
cent tribute to the sugar trust. Re-
publican papers treat the bounty as a
favor TO the South. and will make
what capital they can from It. 1t would
have been safer 10 enforce democratic
policy. McKinleyism has been con-
demned by the people. Mckinley, took
the duty off sugar and put the bounty
on. 1t is safe TO reverse the Mckinley
method. Republicans will kick. no mat

Colorado is in the midst of another
gold excitement, and the usual ridicu-
lous exaggerations are flying. 1t is re-
ported that twelve assays from the new
district show from $40 to 1920 per ton.
and that the, district" is twenty miles
square. A district is just as large as
the imagination and the rush of pros
pectors make it. If one man finds a
gold mine there is nothing to prevent
other people hunting for gold mines for
twenty miles in every direction, or fifty
miles, for that matter. The probabili-
ties are that one mine has been found
and the assays do not show ii to be
anything extraordinary. Nevertheless
there is an excitement and even Cripple

The chief protectionist objection to an

The report that the ways and means
committee will recommend a heavy in
crease of taxation on cigarettes and
playing cards is a welcome piece of in
telligence. The cigarette business of the
country is monopolized by two compa-
MES, and the cigarette itself is a nuis-
ance, If there ever was one. The tax
would be increased in popularity if per-
soHs who smoke them in the presence of
others could be doubly taxed. The manu-
facture of playing cards also is practical
ly a monopoly, and everyone comedies
that they are proper subjects for high
taxation. AS instruments for gambling
they ought to be taxed, and as the means
of amusement the tax is a small matter
which those who desire to amuse them
selves will pay without grumbling. The
ways and means committee is to be
complimented- on it's righteousness in
selecting these two articles as objects of

A PYTHON AT LARGE.
Villagers Thoroughly Scared at a Ser.
pent Escaped from Circus.
From the Baltimore. American.

n.
Old Saybrook, Conn, Aug 5.-An
eight-foot python escaped on Wednesday
from a travelling show which was exhib-
iting here. 1t has been seen by two per
sons, both of whom were nearly fright
ened out of their wits, and is still at
large. Frank Dawson was returning
from visit on the Bokuni road, and as
he was passing under large tree he saw
what he supposed was rope dangling
from one of the lower branches, and took
hold of it with his right hand The fin
gers closed on a cold, Shiny, squirming
object, and before he realized It
he found himself lifted from the
ground. He recalled the escape of
the big snake the day before. Letting
go his hold, he dropped to the ground
and ran. Miss Hattie Jane heard a COM
motion in the hennery on Thursday, and
discovered the python in the act of swal-
lowing one other Plymouth Rocks. Afraid
to enter the yard, she watched the snake
satisfying his appetite. Then she saw
him curl up and go to sleep. She waited
a few moments, and then threw several
stones at him. They failed to arouse him.
and then she plucked up courage enough
to steal into the yard and place large
box over him. Then she went into the
house. Her father soon arrived and she
told him her story But he found the
box overturned and the python gone.
The Snowman has offered $25 for the
capture of the snake alive.

LYING ON The TRACK.


WArERvfLLE, Dec. 2i.-(SpeciaI) -
This morning as the engineer OF freight
train no. IS, which Is due to arrive 10 this
city at 2.05 4. NJ, vas approaching the sta
ton at Belgrade, he saw something on the
track ahead, which in the darkness he took
to be piece OF bark which had fallen from
some passing train. As the engine ap-
preached nearer he was Mortified 70 see
that it was human body, lying on the
snow with the feet and legs across the rail
and the head and body on the outside. He
at once called for brakes and applied the
air to those on the engine, bringing the
tram TO stop as soon as possible, but not
until after the man had been struck by the
pilot OF the engine. He was picked up and
taken TO this city.
The man was Mr.. Elmer 4. Smith of Mt
Vernon, who was working for Mr.. Harrison
Hill of Belgrade. This morning Mr. Smith
told bis story as follows: Wednesday even
ing he went to Belgrade Mills to attend
dance, starting for his boarding house lit
tie after midnight. II was very cold and he
was very tired. He remembers Of falling
but was so overcome by cold aud fatigue
that be remained on the track where he fell
but remembers nothing more until after the
accident.
The train bringing the injured man ar
rived here little after 1 o'clock and Drs.
Thayer and Hill were called to attend the
suffering man who wss taken to Richard
sons boarding house. An examination
showed the fact that the left thigh was
fractured in two places. while below the
knee the b ne was completely crushed for
a distance of more Than four inches and
the ankle below was dislocated and frac-
tured. The right ankle was also dislocated
and fractured and there were several cuts
and bruises about the face.
When medical aid was called the veins of
the left foot had refused to do their work.
the foot being purple from stagnated blood,
aud the doctors at once agreed that there
vas 40 hope of saving the limb. During
the day Drs. Thsyer and Hill, assisted by
Dr. Stowell, smputsted the limb Just below
the knee and reduced the fractures above it
and on the right ankle. At O'Clock to-
night the patient had recovered from the
shock, and while he is yet very low, the
physicians entertain strong hopes of his re-
covery. Smith is a strong, able-bodied
young man, 22 wears old and is unmarried.
