the nations bonded debt.
Fond du Lac Commonwealth: A
wealthy farmer sold his wool clip re-
GENTLY, 900 pounds for Is cents a

cents a pound. He voted for Mr..
Cleveland and now has the satisfac-
ton of knowing that he contributed,
not only his vote, but 40 per cent. of
his legitimate income to educate"
the dear people and make wool free

Tin Plate an Accomplished Fact.

By Special Agent Ayers report we
learn that more than Al, 100000
pounds OF tin plate have been made
in the United States during the last
quarter OF this fiscal year. About
half oftnis has been made upon Ameri-
Gun 'ac> plate" which is to say it
has been wholly OF American make
from American produced material,
except as to the tin metal, which is
imported from Australia and Malac-
ca alike by British and American
makers OF tin-pIate.
But for the threat of repeal of the
tin-plate duties every pound of tin
plate made in the United States
would DOW be made on American
black plate" There is no trick or
secret in the manufacture of "black
plate" 1t is made just as the thick
iron or steel plateused as the founda-
ton of zinc plate, or galvanized iron,
as lC OFTEN Is called, Is made; 1t re-
quires machinery of a finer gauge;
that is all. But such machinery is
expensive. consequently those tin
plate factories that had, not prepar-
ed for the manufacture of "black
plate prior to the disastrous election
of 1892 refrain from ordering cost
~ plant until assured of protection
to their trade.
Nevertheless, 100000 pounds
and more ofAmerican-madet tin plate,
half oft wholly an American product,
Is fine showing for three months of
an industry that had no existence
until he Mckinley law called it into
being Inter OceUH.

Perhaps some Of our readers would
like to know in what respect Chambe&
lain's Cough Remedy is better than any
other. We will tell YOU When this
Remedy is taken as soon as a cold has
been contracted, and before it has become
settled III the system, it will counterfeit
the effect Of the cold and greatly lessen
it's severity, if not effectually cure the
cold in two days time, and it is the only
remedy that will do this. 1t acts in per
feet harmony with nature and aids ma
ture in relieving the lungs, opening
secretions, liquidfying the mucus and
causing it expulsion from the air cells
Of the lungs and restoring the system to
a strong and healthy condition No other
remedy in the market possesses these re-
mark able properties. No other will cure
a cold so quickly or leave the system in
as sound a condition. For sale by John

Alleged Cleveland "Surplus."

At frequent and constantly recur-
ring intervals Democratic politicians
and newspapers, commenting on the
condition of the treasury, assert
that Mr.. Cleveland left a surplus
there at the end of his first term and
that it was deliberately squandered
by the succeeding administration Of
Gen. Harrison. This is, indeed, one
of the Commonest of the numerous
political falsehoods by means of
which the Democratic party sue
ceeded in impressing upon the
minds OF voters a prejudice
against the conduct OF the govern
ment during the last four years. 1t
is about as complete and unfounded
a falsehood as the human magma
ton could invent. In the first place
there never was legitimate surplus
during the Cleveland administration,
except as there had been a surplus
very many times before. 1t was in
creased by Mr.. Cleveland by impro-
per devices for the purpose Of Great
ing a public sentiment in favor of a.
free trade tariff. But at the end of
his administration, owing to the ex-
travagance of Democratic congresses,
it amounted to no more than the
sum of SIS, O96, 1880, and this sum
six times over was expended by Gen
Harrison, as it should have been by
Mr.. Cleveland, in the redemption of
bonds, Atthe end of thefscal year of
1892 bonds had been redeemed to
the amount Of $296,316,9S1, and
the government had saved through
these purchases precisely $55, 352,-
493-nearly seven and a half millions
more than the so-called surplus
which was left in the treasury by Mr..
Cleveland. The annual interest
charge when Mr.. Cleveland left Office
was S34, 100000. When he came
back to office it had been decreased
to the sum Of S22, 500, 900.
The talk about?a Cleveland surplus
in the light of these facts is the silliest
kind of nonsense. So far as such a
surplus ever existed, it was artificial
ly created by Mr.. Cleveland's refusal
to redeem outstanding bonds, S194,-
100000 of which were outstanding
and redeemable at the will OF the
government on the day of his inau-
guration. 1t had always been the
policy of previous administrations
to devote whatever money there was
in the treasury over and above it's
current necessities to the reduction of
the public debt. Mr. Cleveland sus-
pended that policy at a cost to the
American people of many millions,
and for the simple and obvious pur-
pose of creating all idle chatter about
a surplus on which he could build up
an excuse for the passage of free
trade tariff bill.-NeaO York Tribune.

We rejoice that Hurd and Neal are
mailing free trade colors to the mast.
We are glad that in Ohio there is no
evasion of the real issue Of the cam
paign. We congratulate the Demo-
cratic candidate for theg overnOrship
OF Ohio on the possession OF honesty
and courage far superior to the quail
tiles displayed by the Democratic
candidate for the goyernorship of
Iowa, who is endeavoring o skuIk be-
hind a barricade of whiskey barrels
Free trade means-there no longer
IS room for argument on this point
lower wages.
It means also a duty on sugar, tea,
AID coffee. Mr. Hurd has acknowl-
edged this.
It means also an income tax to
make up the deficiency caused by a
vast addition to free list. The
Chicago Herald admits this, and re-
joices in it.
TO these outcomes then, Messrs.
Hurd and Neal are committed:
Tariff for revenue only, which is
an impairment, possibly destruc-
ton Of the means by which millions
Of workmen now earn living
2. Increase Of the cost of living by
taxes on sugar, tea, and coffee.
3. Decrease of the funds available
for charitable aid to the sufferers by
the calamities already mentioned by
imposition OF a tax on the incomes
OF those fortunate enough to escape
serious loss by tariff changes.

A STRANGE CASE.
A Man Who Lived Sixteen Years With
Hole Through Ills Head.


Rutland (yt) Letter to New Orleans Times. Demo-
crat
The recently reported narrative of man
who died in a Newark IN. J.) hospital with
knife blade protruding into his brain since
his boyhood (his death having been pro-
duced from entirely different causes) calls
attention To a remarkable occurrence in
Vermont. In the New Jersey case an
autopsy revealed that the blade Of the knire
extended nearly one inch beyond the out
side OF the brain, while its broken extrem-
ity was on line with the interior surface
of the Uranium.
A still more remarkable accident of a
somewhat similar nature occurred more
than forty years ago. and is we'll authenti-
Gated. Phiueas c. Gage, the victim. was in
one way the most remarkable man who ever
lived. so far las is known, the New Jersey
case being the nearest to parallel on rec
ord. 1t Is certain that Mr.. Gage was the
only man who ever had tamping-ba bar shot
through his brain and who recovered.
The circumstances were such that the at
tention OF physicians and surgeons Of both
continents was attracted, not only while
the man was suffering from the effects OF the
wound, but after he recovered. Surgeons
refused to believe the assertions of the at
tending physicians, and required attested
statements from prominent clergymen, law
yers and others who actually saw the case
before they would accept the statements
made.
The accident which made Mr.. Gage IA
nous occurred at Cavendisb, W.. Septem-
Der Is. 1S48, while blasting was going on in
a cut in the rocks through which the Rut-
land division of the Central Vermont
Railroad now passes. Phineas Gage. aged
