Bell-making is one of the greatest
industries in this country, yet how
seldom we hear of it, observes the
Chicago Record. Foreign countries
recognize that our bells are superior
in tone to any other make, and even
the Japanese are sending orders to
this country for bells. The Japanese
have long been regarded as famous
bell makers, but they do not hesitate
to apply to American manufacturers
when they find it to their advantage
to do SO. There is grim humor in tho
fact that the fre-alarm bells to be
used in Toxic have been ordered OF
a manufacturing firm in Jersey City.
The largest bell in America is in the
cathedral of Montreal and it weig hs
$4,000 pounds. The bell in the pub.
lie building at Philadelphia is to weigh
between 20, 900 and 25, pounds.
There is bell at Erfurt, Germany,
least in 1479) and one in Notre Dame,
Paris, cast in 1860, each weighing 80,
600 pounds. The great Chinese bell
at Pekin weighs 100, 1000 pounds, is IA
feet high and 12 feet in diameter. By
the way, the Chinese used to make
bells nearly square in shape. The
largest bell is of course that in the
Kremlin at Moscow. It is over nine.
teen feet in height and measures
nearly % feet across the mouth, ita
thickness at the point where the clap
per would strike is twenty-three in
ches; the cost of manufacturing this
noble work Of human art was about
100000.

A telegram from Richmond says: The
north-bound passenger train on the Rich

safe blown open and robbed. The runaway
locomotive was stopped at Quantico by OBJ
structing the track. It is stated that there
was an unusually large amount of money
on the train, probably 10000. The rob-
bers, seven in number, were masked, and

They forced the messenger to open II. The
railroad company has offered $1,000 reward
for the arrest OF any one of the robbers. The
express messenger has now reported that
the safe contained $3.50, 900. The robbers
secured this and all of the express pack
ages containing money. 1t is thought
the amount will foot up to about $780,
600. A large part of this money was
shipped from Richmond. None of the pas
sengers was molested. After the robbery
the thieves made Off with their booty in the
direction of the Potomac River, where 1t Is
supposed they had a boat in waiting to take

EDITOR ADVOCATE: - The Cyrus Le-
land, Corning outfit Of slime singers,
struck Lawrence Last Friday and posted
bills announcing q 'Grsnd Populist
Rally" at the rink that evening. Nu-
merous smaller bills announced that
fraud, hypocrisy and humbug would be
exposed at the rink that evening, and
they proved strongly prophetic.
Positive evidence having been So
cured that the rink had been engaged
and payment (Sl0) assured by the pFe8i-
dent Of the Lawrence republican club,
the Populists were curious to know
what kind OF meeting the republicans
would hold in their name, aud at 8
O'Clock about 200 .Popullsts and fifty re-
publicsns had assembled at the rink.
The Populists decided not to capture
the meeting, which they certainly had
both the right and the power to do, but
only to obtain the floor long enough to
expose the true character OF the mer-
cenary outfit. Fl. 8. Clark, chairman
Populist county committee, called the
meeting to order, which he surely had
the right to do when it was advertised
as q Populist meeting, and called Col
onel W. H. 7. Wakefield to the chair.
Mr.. Wakefield in a brief, but vigorous
and incisive manner, showed under what
auspices the meeting was being held
and the true history and character OF
the political prostitutes sent by Cyrus
Island to throw mud a. their bstterB,
Never were skunks more neatly skinned
and the Sheepskins torn of the wolves.
As Mr.. Wakefield had been elected
chairman by the prsctloally or quite
unanimous vote Of those present he
unquestionably had the right to the
chair aud could easily have held
it il it wBs true, as republicans claim
that an attempt was made to capture
the meeting, nearly all present at the
time being Populists. But, having
drawn the f&ngs Of the Serpents, he
yielded the stage TO Mrs. Eta ssmpler
Of Ottawa, who had been imported for
the purpose, aud the outfit was per-
mitted to sling it's slime,iwhlch 1t did to
the extent Of disgusting it's republican
sponsors and Of making several POpu'
list converts. At the outset republicans
cheered them vocifsrously, but they

1897 in Tess turned into the st&t0 treas
ury by the POpulist secretary Of state,
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1894.
So while Mr.. Howe figures out q differ
ence in favor Of his party OF only S96.23
for 1892, the real difference is 81 ,660.77
in favor Of the Populists, a. can Oe
found by adding the 81, ,697 in fees to the
balance in the treasury for 1894 Of
S468 6S, which makes 81, 1868, and from
this subtract the balance Of &5O486 for
the year 1892, leaving the amount saved
by the Populists over the republicans Of
$1,66O77.
"Limited space forbids me showing
up Mr.. Howe's contoEtions in each sep
arate table. A person acquainted with
Mr.. Howe would not think he would be
90 unfair, but then We must consider the
company he keeps. And then he docs
condescend to admit that Roc the years
1893 and 1894 there is a difference OF
$58 54l38 on state printing in favor Of
the Populists over the two years 1889
and 1890 under republican rule, but he
fails to tell you that the Populists had
an extraordinary bill for Worlds Fair
printing OF $9,67l03.
O"But continuing, Mr.. Howe gives sew
arsl tables under the caption Of tex
ceptionsl." don't know what he
means by exceptional" But I noticed
the item OF state printing to the amount
Of sl58,89397 in one table and it just
occurred to me that he formed these
tables for the purpose OF deducting all
the Exceptionally" large republican e1-
pendttures, 80 as to show balance for
his party on the right side of the ledger.
The tables are utterly useless and sense
less for any other purpose than Juggling
in order to deceive the voter.
But after all Mr.. Howe, wishing at
least to appear fsir to those who by
reason Of a lack Of knowledge OF official
records are unable to discover his cum
ming, he gives a table showing an actual
saving, according to his own figures, in
favor of the Populists Of the following
amount for the following departments
and institutions for the Populist syear
1894 compared with the republican year
1892.
