A REMARKABLE RESCUE.

From the Monitor, published at
Eagleville, Mo-, we clip the following
remarkable statement OF facts. The
Mrs. Brock mentioned is a sister OF
our townsman, Il. b. Mckinney:
~. p. Harold and wife and their
three small children of Bates county
are visiting the Brooks in and near
town. Mr.. Harold was u caller at
the Monitor office Monday and told us
some startling facts. He related that
he and his family had been visiting
out at John Brooks. Last Sunday
the men folks were away. Mr.. Har-
rold's three children, the youngest two
and the eldest seven years old, were
playing in the yard. They finally wont
near the well to play and pulled the
curb over. The two-year-old child
got near the opening and fell in. The
screams of the other children brought
the child's mother and Mrs. Brock to
the scene and they were painfully
sensitive as to what had happened
The child could be seen with its head
Just above the water. They ran for a
ladder. but it was ten feet too short
Mrs. Harold took hold of the vel
rope and discovered that the child had
the rope grasped firmly in its little
hands. She elevated the rope slightly
and her baby came with it. Will
fear and trembling the mother pullet
the child nearer the top. II was al
over. Her darling was saved and sht
carried it to the house where in
little while II was ready to play. Th'
well is Is feet deep, and it is remark
able that little baby should possess
wisdom to cling steadtastly to a rop'
until drawn out of deaths mouth il

Which is Right?

Fred Higgs and Others-!The nine
teenth century will be completed on
the lhe last second Of December 81,
1900.-San Francisco Examiner.
Our contemporary may be in error
to the amount Of twelve months.
There was quite q discussion in 1850
whether the figures denoted past time
or not. It was discussed by the Fac
ulty OF Harvard University, which
decided that figures relating to time
always denoted past time. That is to
say, II mar in walking, does not put a
mile post at the start, but commences
thus: 0-l--2- -3--4, and so
on. Thus it takes twelve months to
make n year, md when those months
have been completed, the yeaI is reg
istered. In this way, when tn year
1900 is recorded. that ends the centu-
ry. and twelve months must elapse
before another year is ushered in.
Harvard University contained among
its professors forty-two years ago
such eminent men as Agassiz, Long
follow, Lowell and others, and the
Chronicle would rather have their
opinions than those OF the Examin-
er's query editor.-Virginis Chron-
icle.

The Western Nevada Immigration
Association has called. q mass meet
ing to be held at the opera house,
Reno, next Saturday evening. The
Journ al in commenting on the object
of the meeting says:
"There are vast undeveloped re-
sources in Nevada to which the at
teution Of Eastern capitalists and
home seekers should be directed.
The soil is unsurpassed in fertility
and productiveness where water can
be procured for irrigating it, and,
save in exceptionally dry seasons,
which only occur once in a decaoe,
there is water enough going to waste
in the principal streams OF the State
to irrigate large areas which now pro-
duce only sagebrush. The climate is
unequaled in salubriousness. There
are moro days on which the u
shines in Nevada than in any other
State in the Union. Consumption is
not q product Of the State and il i'm
ported cannot long Withstand the
pure, in~vigorating atmosphere, which
is more destructive to the bacilli Of
that dreadful disease than Professor
Koch's bacteria destroyer. This, with
the fact that no dangerous malarial
diseases are engendered in the State,
and that contagious diseases, such as
scarlatina and diphtheria are never
epidemic and rarely fatal, ought to be
sufficient if generally known, to in
duce Eastern people to settle in Ne
vada. Cyclones, which devastate
communities in fhe Mississippi valley
instantaneously, are unknown, as are
also destructive floods, which, in
many other States inundate vast
areas in aday."
If these and other advantages pos
sessed by Nevada were generally
known, and one Of the objects Of the
meeting is to devise meal for dis
sen,inatiug the knowledge, thousands
of health and home seekers would
doubtless be attracted to Nevada"

In the last numDef OF the american
Economist appears this letter from
Trump Brothers Machine Company of
this city, in response to a circular ask
ing for opinions on the tariff bill for
mulated by the Reform Club OF Now
York City.
WILMINGTON, DEL, April 10. 1898.
To answer inteiligently the Inquiries
OF your circular letter of 18th instant
relative to proposed tariff bill, as pre-
pared by the committee of tho New
York Tariff Reform Club. would re-.
quire very through knowledge of
the present tariff and careful study
and comparison in detail.
Broadly considered, the object Of q
protective tariff is to build UP and fos.
ter the general prosperity of our
country through protecting our manu-
featuring industries, and, necessarily.
any change which threatens or defeats
this object must be detrimental,
Those manufacturers who have
large and expensive plants must keep
going, aud II such changes In tariff
are made as will make foreign oompe-
titioI stronger. the first relief the
| manufacturer must of necessity seek
| is the reducing of the cost OF his pro.
| ductioD, which. in most cases, Is best
effected through reduction of wages
However, this ls dramatically oppo.
site to the worklngmen's interests and
| the promises made to them by the
Democratic orators last fall, and OF
course. defeats entirely the sole aim,
purpose and ambition OF that great
and glorious party, viz: the benefit
of the worklngman.n
Our business Is largely the manufac.
turing of knitting machinery for UNI
derwear, stockings. ETC., and the de-
mand for our product 10 entirely de-
pendent upon the condition of the
knit Roode market, whion to-day Is in
! very fiourishlng and healthy condt-
ticn.
A reduction In the present tariff will
admit foreign goods which will take
the place OF the domestic supply very
largely. This means shutting down
| OF the mills aud. In consequence, o
| very considerable falling off OF the de-
mand for new machines; to what ex-
tent is simply q matter OF speculation.
In this Que branch OF industry we
would consider any change ill.advis.
cd, as from all we can learn the knit
domestic production with the better
article and at a lower price than ever
before; and under our protective sys-
tenn healthy domestic competition Is
constantly growing and the consu mer
getting better value all the time.
In answer to your last inquiry as to
the purchasing power OF the people,
we can only say, that an article at 10
cents comes high" II you have not
the 10 cents.
| Very truly yours,
TRUMP 6RoTHERs MACHINE Co.
