An Island Pond Man Killed in a Rail-
rOad Wreck.

A train consisting of a locomotive and
~ cars left Island Pond Sunday to 90 over
the Grand Trunk road to the scene of the
recent washout at North Strafford, y. H.,
to repair the wreck. The train was cross
ing Nulhegan bridge near Wenlock station,
\. H., when the structure gave way, and
the train was hurled into the water &c
feet below. Engineer Tracey of Island
Pond and his fireman jumped, and escaped
with slight injuries, but Thomas White a
brakeman, was hurled beneath the wreck
and killed. He was 20 years of age and
belonged in Island Pond. The accident
was due to the fact that the foundations of
the structure had been weakened by an
immense jam of logs.

PASS TIE TAKIFF BILL.

Time and experience nave shown that
the more time the Senate devotes TO the
consideration OF a tariff Dill, the more
changes there will be made in it. Every
fellow has an idea that his own particu-
lar amendment is just what is needed
By the country. and nothing can keep
him from proposing il. And when
enough OF these amendments are pro-
posed they all vote for each others
propositions and all Of them are made.
If the tariff bill should stay before the
Senate six months more there would
still be some one with an amendment
which he would consider necessary 10
the country's welfare.
Enough time mas been wasted already
by the Senators who are making their
amendments, aud the time has come for
action. No matter, as Senator PALMER
says, which Of al! the bills is passed,
any one OF those which have been con-
sidered is so much better than the obi
Gus Mckinley measure that the people
would approve its passage. The last
bill may not be what the people want
may not embo1y the entire Democratic
idea Of tariff reform-but further delay
would mean further amendment and
that might keep the bill before the
Senate all next summer.
The people want the tariff reduced.
They want it done at once, and the
Senators who are opposing it and throw
Ing every obstacle in its path, talking
against time aud otherwise delaying the
bill already know that the people they
represent do not approve their course.
There have been enough amendments.
The time has come 10 pass the bill.

by American manufacturers and studies
the question Of wages paid the men who
make them. Musical instruments,
cooking and heating apparatus, car
riages and wagons, clocks and watches,
wooden goods, food preparations, etc,
are exported more than any other
kinds OF goods made in this country.
They come in competition in the for
eign markets with the products of the
'pauper labor" Of Europe, but the men
who make them instead OF getting pau
per wages are shown by Col. PoR.
TER'S census to be paid an average
of fifty per cent more than
those employed in the best protected
industries in the country. The men
whose products successfully compete In
open market with tho products of the
"pauper labor" OF Europe get half as
much again as do the men who, under
the highest protection given any indus
tries, produce our carpets, wooden and
wOrsted goods, and make our hosiery.
And. furthermore, this ratio is grow
ing greater. From 1855 TO 1890, while
the wages of employees IN the highly
protected industries increased on an
average SCI year, those OF employees
in the industries which compete with
the world and underselI the "pauper
laborer'S' products, increased on an
average about SIS a year.
These are figures taken by Mr.. ScHo-
ENHoF from the latest census reports,
and their authenticity can not be doubt
ed by Republicans who swear by PoRT-
EE'S census. They overthrow all argu-
ments that could be made TO show that
protective tariff raises wages. The
man whose wages have been cut under
the protective tariff law imposed upon
the country by Mr.. MCKINLEY knows
from bitter experience that this law
does not protect him. All others will
find food for reflection in Mr.. ScHoES-
HOES study OF the census.

rr.ars aNnrAETARIrr.

Every one Of the thousands Of reduc-
tions that have been made under the
protective tariff system in the wages OF
American laborers has gone 70 prove,
more effectively than any argument
could do. that the wages OF our work
ing-men ara not affected by the tariff.
The greater the protection, the smaller
the wages paid, is the rule that has
seemed 20 be true, and while too much
reliance should not be placed upon the
8gures OF the last census, 10 is shown
therein that this is true. NJ. j..
ScHbENuoF, who has been investigat-
ing the subject Of wages and the tariff,
has recently printed some Of the re-
suits OF his investigation, which shows
conparatively a very SINAI. number OF
the laborers Of this country who are in
any way affected by the tariff. lie
finds that the wages paid iu the pro-
tected industries are, as a rule, less re-
sponsive TO improved conditions than
wages paid in the unprotected indus
tries. Mr.. ScHoENHoF finds that in
the industries representing the highest
grade of protection-carpets t~ine,
COTTON goods, glass, wooden goods, ETC.
there were employed in 1890, as
given by the census, 2l2,2o7
males and 10O,56S females, while
in the manufacture Of food and drin k
supplies. which have but little, II any
protection, there were 17t,37o males
employed. The average wages OF the
males in the protected industries was
s4l4 Der year, OF the females s215,
while the average wages OF the men Ia
pnnrotected industries was found to be
sst3. The difference between the
wages Of those employed in protected
nd UNPROTECTED industries is seen by
Col Posters census to be about hun
a,sd dollars a year, but con trary to his
theory the difference is 10 the favor OF
.ba men who are not protected.
When comparison is made between
the employe Of protection and the me-
cbanic the difference is even more aP-
narent Among the industries Of this
Eind. such as carpentering, blacksmith
ing, plastering, etc. the number oil
males employed in 1890 was 5a2' $40
their wages averaging $685. year or
nearly $500 year more than those Of
the employees in the highest protected
Manufacturers.
Another interesting fact brought out
- r ScHoENHoF Is that the uapro-
..o,as American labOrer has nothing TO
49,. from the sO-called ''pauper
competition" Of European countries :.
He takes . line OF manufactures IN
Which the largest export trade Is zone

TROUBLE At THE MINE.
TIE ETYA-STANDARO MINERS DRIVEN FROM
THEIR WORK.
Several Hundred Strikers Kept the Men Out
Of the Mine - More Trouble Is
Expected.

Yesterday morning there was big ex-
element at the Etna-Standard mill
coal mines. Some OF the miners in the
employ Of the company before the
strike had decided to 90 to work
against the wishes of the other miners
in the locality. Four OF the old en-
ployes decided that they would go TO
work Yesterday morning. They nOti-
fed the management Of the mill that
they would be on hand TO go 10 work at
the old price Of 20 cents a ton for min
ing. In some manner the word that
some OF the miners had decided TO go
work spread, and other workmen in the
locality decided 10 prevent the four men
going 10 work, and succeeded. The
affair created muCn excitement.
The men were TO go TO work In the
mines now Idle at o'clock yesterday
morning. About 3 O'CLOCK in the morn
ing some 200 Of the miners from the
Wheeling Creek coal mines and repre-
sentativeS OF the other mines in that
locality, marched TO the Etua mine
and waited for the men. When they
arrived, the striking men appeared and
told them not TO go in the mine, for II
they did they would be brought out.
BY this time the crowd had swelled to
several hundred, and trouble was immi-
nent. The crowd finally dispersed, and
noue of the men were allowed TO go to
work.
The affair was the talk OF the town
yesterday, and it was reported that the
company had begun building a high
barbed wire fence about the mines 10
keep out those who came TO interfere
Ii was also reported that the company
would call for the Sheriff TO aid the men
who wanted TO go TO work. To verify
these rumOrs, a REGISTER reporter
called on the management at the mill.
The MANAGEMENT was averse 10 talking
on the subject. When asked about call
ing on the authorities, 1t was said that
the company would see its men who de-
sired to go TO work were protected.
Then they were. askedljf the barbed wire
fence was being built. They told the
reporter TO go and see. He went, but
could not ind the fence. At the mouth
OF the Standard mine, however, there is
to be a very heavy iron door. The
most conservative fear trouble at the
mines.
