Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1894-05-24

Three years ago the French protcc-
Zionist Mclinc betrayed parliament into
the passing of law as destructive rs
the Mckinley robbery. Anarchism had
no namC, 10 adhcrcntS, until the indus
trial torture of that law begun to mad
den the prolctairc, for i'll France as i'll
the United States, it is the rich who
benefit by the tariff CXactions. In all the
industrial towns Of the republic the
same results are seen that followed the
Mckinley law The favored few prosper;
the millions are without work. The pro-
lCtairr-thp workman - always easily
mislcd, were the first to hail the tariff
as an instrument in their favor. They
are now realizing the actual effect
While work was abundant and well paid
mdcr Il nominal tariff, work is at an
end, and idlrncss holds scvcn-tcnths of
the industrial ranks in starvation The
tariff has oblitgratcd great percentage
of the export trade with the rest of Eu-
rope. WailiMg and despair are heard
from every province,
Yet Moline has just carried law to
add an additional tax ON grain to pro
tect the farmer Trade with Spain is al
most cXtiuguishcd Swiss trade with
France has fallen Off oue-half. Italy and
the rest Of Europ" are cutting down ev-
cry day the importation Of French handi-
work, and yet the Mckinley spirit is dc
faint and aggressive 1t is the confusion
of the unCl1Cat,d mi Hon tht rpforp that
gives apparent strength to the anarchist
group, for the prolctairc, having been as
surcd that protection was going to give
him work and high pay concludes that
the present condition Of society j, all
wrong when the laws he has boon made

BIBLE FORAGING.-A farmer being
asked how many acres of land he owned,
replied: IF you multiply the number
of Jacobs sons by the number of times
which the Israelites compassed Jericho
on the seventh day, and add to the pro-
duct the number of measures of barley
which Boaz gave Ruth; divide this by
the number of Haman's sons; subtract
the number of each kind of unclean
beasts that went into the ark; multiply
by the number of men that went to seek
Elijah after he was taken to heaven;
subtract from this Joseph's age when he
stood before Pharaoh; divide by the
number of stones David selected to kill
Goliath; subtract the number of. fur
longs that Bethany was distant from
Jerusalem; multiply by the number of
anchors cast out at the time of Paul's
shipwreck; subtract the number of peo-
pie saved in the ark, and the remainder
will be the number of acres" How
many acres did he own.-Word and
Works.

Fake Sores.
J. X. GIFFEN.

A species of humbug which has not be-
fore struck st. Clairsville was in town
last week. Two hearty, healthy looking
men came in one morning and started
through town in different ways, syste-
matically working the generosity of the
people. One had his arm in sling and
the other his hand tied up in many folds
of wrappages. The first would by dex-
ferrous movement, as he asked for help,
throw off the bandages and peel up to
view most hideous arm, saying that he
had been blown up and scalded. The
other discovered to the curious a most
vile looking hand, which he said the doc
tors called catarrh. The men gathered
in many nickels and dimes from unwary
people, who were really taken in by their
plausible story, or who gave them some
thing, to be rid of the sight Of their sores.
These sores were deliberately self-infict-
ed wounds. They were made with a sort
of blister, which when smeared vito vas
cline, presents a horrible appearance.
The fake is an old one.

A Business Girl.

Father, would like to see you in
the library on matter of business"
Very well, Viola; come along. Now,
then, what is it?''
Father, you are aware that Harry
Noodenhammer has been paying me his
attentions for the last year,"
"Yes, and l have felt like kicking
him. The idea of Noodenhammer
daring to aspire to the hand of Graf

He has asked me to be his wife,"
THE scound-el! Why, I'll maui the
life out of him.
And L have almost promised" she
placiGly continued.
What-what! Ny daughter marry

dollars week? Never! Go to your
room while l seek this base adven-''
Father, want to talk straight bust
ness with you," she interrupted. "As
you are aware, this is the state of Mas
sachusetts.'
Yes
Have you seen the vital statistics of
the state for the last year?"
"No; of course not. The idea of that
Hen NOodenhammer skulking around
here after my"
"Wait! According to the statistics,
this state has 81 ,240 more females than
males. There are 226,890 more mar
riageable girls than can find husbands,
to say nothing of 1924 widows anxi-
out for No. 2. The number of young
men in the state earning over fifteen
dollars week and in the market is only
22,1O7. There are camped on the trail
of these young men exactly 100000
young women and 10000 widows
Three out of every five children born
are girls. Death removes two young men
to every married man or old bachelor"
The old man turned pale and grasped
chair for support, and after pause
she continued:
From June to October over $4,000
marriageable young women visit our
watering places, and it is estimated that
81 ,442 of them catch husbands, thus
further reducing the chances of resi-
dent. Father, take this pencil and figure
on your Viola's chances of catching an
other man if she lets Henry Nooden-
hammer canter away"
"Great Scottw he gasped, figuring for
moment. Why, your chances are
only one in q, 1,S75,947l"
Just as l figured it out myself.
What shall say to him this EVENING""
"Say? Say? Why, tell him you IL
have him, and be mighty glad of the
chance, and don't let him draw a long
breath before you add that the cere-
mony can take place right after break
fast tomorrow morning, and 1 am to
give YOU wedding present of $1,000 in
cash."

A CONSTITUTIONAL Convention is at
work on a new Constitution for the
State of New York. To formulate the
organic law of a great State is no small
matter, since the Convention will have
to deal with many weighty propositions.
Among these are woman suffrage, abo-
lition of capital punishment. taxation,
and many other matters. Then after
the Convention has done its best, the
people have the privilege of adopting or
rejecting their work. While New York
is said to need revision of her Consti-
tuition, so does Ohio, and the experience
of the Empire State people may be of
value to US in amending our fundament-
al law.

LETTER FROM EGYPT.
An American Pump Pumping in the Land
OF The Sphinx

The following letter written some time
ago by the Rev. J. K Giffen, from Tanta,
Egypt, to the Sunday schools in this VI
cinity which helped in the cause men
toned, may be of interest to the many
of our readers, who have not heard it read:
DEAR FRIENDs-Some of you who so
kindly contributed for the purchase OF a
Wind Pump for "The Training Col
Iege." Assioot, may think that l should
have written you long ago, and given
some information as to what became OF
your contributions. l was able to pur-
chase an SIT. a6romotor with p-ft.
Steel Tilting Tower, of the Aeromotor
Company of Chicago. l had it shipped
to Assioot, and superintended putting 1t
all together, doing most of it with my
own hands. With 240 curious students
around it was not always an easy matter
to do the work But finally we got ev-
erything properly to place, but most pro-
vokingly we had dead calm for two
days, while every one was most anxious
to see the wheel go round. And was the
most anxious of all, though with probably
more faith than some. The third day in
the morning, we had a good breeze, and
in the presence of about 300 spectators
we threw the machinery, and had the sat
isfaction of seeing every part move per-
fectly and almost noiselessly. At first
there was a good deal of disappointment
ON the part of many because the stream
of water was not greater. l too began to
think | had made mistake in the pur-
chase of too small a pump. But we built
reservoir that holds near 200 barrels of
water and it keeps full with the greatest
ease.
Now word of explanation as to my
delay in writing you. AS many of you
may know, we were not sent back to AS
sioOt on our return to Egypt, one year
ago, but were sent to new station, so
that we have not been in Assioot except
when / set up the pump. A year has
passed, and every report of the pump is.
that it is doing all that is expected of it.
Those who have the use of it, are doubt
less grateful to those who so kindly con-
tributed to the cost of the pump.
Yours in common bonds,
J. X. GIFFEN.
