ScoIds Him.

The Free Press scolds the Martins
burg Herald for attempting to drive
out of the Republican party such
honest Republicans as Mr.. James
d. Butt, of Harpers Ferry. Well, the
Herald deserves it, that is. from Dem
ocratic standpoint. The gentleman in
question and his friend from Jefferson
County are certainly two of the most
popular Republicans in the State, that
is, popular with the Democrats. There
is no doubt. also, of the fact that they
can help the Democratic party more if
they p ose as Republicans than if they
come out squarely on the side on which
they belong. Pitch into him, Bro
Free Press Well back you. But we
suppose he's tired of being butted and
BACKED. -Keyser Echo.

The farmer is, according to Demo
cratic theory, to buy clothing at great
ly reduced rates. He buys, say, three
suits of clothes year; there is an av,
erage of five pounds of wool to the
suit, which at reduction of 10 cents
a pound would save him 81 so, equiv.
alent to his loss on the selling price
of one fleece of merino wool.

This year it bears aloft fleece of wool
alleged to have been found in Monroe

have no doubt it will be found to con
tain about the same amount of truth
as the tin cup.

fate of that distinguished cuckoo. We

hand in blow after blow to the indus

of his election to Congress, and not

Breckenridge, of Kentucky, expect.
to leave for his home in Lexington
next Thursday night He has ac

next Saturday evening, and it will
he his first address in public sine,

invitation was rendered him by some
of his personal and political friends
and the address will be virtually the
opening of his campaign for re cleo
ton to Congress.
He understands that there is op-
position to his denomination by
members of his own party at home
but he thinks that it will disappear
in a comparatively short time. he
does not feel that his personal short
comings should be charged against
his public record, and he will there
fore decline to retire from the con
gressional race merely on account Of
the scandal growing out of the re
cent trial.

will partake largely of the nature OIL

senator Daniel on the Situation in
the Senate.

the Senate.
In reply to a letter from a friend
in Norfolk, Va, Senator Daniel has
written the following letter, which
shows that he is quite uneasy as to
the situation in the Senate:
"The reason why the Democrats
do not Immediately pass the tariff
bill is simply because they cannot.
The Republicans have the right OF
debate, as old as the government,
and they are ex ereisiHg it. They
also have the privilege of offering
amendments, which they will exer-
else, and it is as impossible to get
the tariff bill through Immediately
as it would be to turn Niagara Falls
up hill. The Republicans are also
delaying the Democrats by every
possible parliamentary device. Be
sides this there are few Democrats
who will not support the bill unless
it is amended We have but forty
four Democrats in the Senate, just
half, and, as you will perceive. the
slightest abrasion destroys our pow
er. When you remember that the
tariff led to the verge of war in the
thirties, and into civil war in the six
ties, that the interest of 10000, 500
people and the benefits of many mil
lions of dollars to class are invol-
we'd, you realize that it will be re-
markable if we get through any tar
if bill whatsoever. If it would de-
feat the tariff bill to cut your throat
or mine we would be dead men be-
fore tomorrow morning.

grounds.

had escorted them all the way.
AS soon as Coxey discovered the
trick be jumped from his carriage
and made his way back toward the
capitol followed by Browne. Coxey
got through the crowd and started
up the steps.
"What do you want here2" asked

to unfold it. There was movement
among the officers. Capt. Garden
took Coxey by the left arm and
Lieut.. Kelly by the right. and
moved down the steps, the solid rank
of officers following. Coxey was thus
impelled downward and forward. He
was not pulled or put under arrest
but firmly pushed away.
Browne being little more unruly
was arrested with Jones of the Phil

police station. They will have 6

When General Coxey arrives in
Washington and commences to mar
shall his tatterdemalions in front of
the Capitol to boot Congress into
passing financial measure which
will make an affi uent gentleman of
every unemployed man in the land,
he ought to be fully prepared with
the proper language to be addressed
to that body. Fortunately for him,
his enterprise is not entirely origi-
nal. Others have gone before him
in attempts to bulldoze Congress in
TO the fattening of their purses and
the improvement of their fortunes in
general. If he has taste for pre-
cedents, be has but to examine the
files of some of the New York daily
papers during the months of Au
gust, September and October last.
In them he will find denunciations
of Congress which he would not dare
to use, and the utterance of which
would soon land him in the District
Jail. Following these presidents,
he would declare every Senator and
member who differed with him a
scoundrel or a fool. If any should
desire to present any argument
against the passage of the scheme,
be would deny their right to debate,
and would threaten the vengeance Of
the people upon their heads if they
should delay obedience to his de-
mands Farther following these
same preeedents, be need not present
any reasons why his measures should
he passed, except that he has decid
ed that they ought to be passed
The best specimens of bulldozing,
General Coxey will find, in the New
York Times and Evening Post of
that period. He will find in one of
them communication advocating
the movement of the mob upon
Washington with view to the1ynch-
ing of recalcitrant Senators.
We do not recommend that this
new financial leader adopt the meth
DDS OF the gold ring. What we have
said is rather for the purpose OF call
ing attention to the fact that six
months ago Congress was threatened
by wild and incendiary writer's in
the interest of the gold standard.
The property of the country was
found to contain just as vicious An
archists as can be found in the ranks

portion of their example, if they are
to follow any of it.-Cincinndh En-

The Wilson bill and What 1t
Saves

The Wilson tariff bill may be said
now to be fairly under discussion
and as it is the most important meas
ure before Congress, and the most
important to the country. let us
glance at one of it's main features.
In single schedule of the Wilson
bill 1T proposes an average saving to
every man, woman and child in the
United States of nearly $3.50, or an
aggregate ola hundred and fifty mil
lion dollars a year This enormous
saving to the people will be felt most
by the poorer classes, who are in
need of it, and is to be brought by
the placing of wool on the free list,
and the substantial reduction of the
present duties on wooden goods.
Just how this saving is provided for
by the Wilson bill is shown in the
following paragraph from the Balti
more Sun:
OF the total $76,000,OOO of tariff
taxation taken off by the bill, near.
ly one-third is made up of reductions
in the Mckinley rates on wooden
manufactures. Besides this reduc-
ton on imported wooden goods in a
finished state, all raw woods are
transferred to the free list, The to-
tai amount of tariff taxes collected
on raw woods in 1898 was over S.
100000. Altogether, therefore, the
wool schedules of the Wilson bill
represent remission of taxation on
a leading article of common necessi-
ty-clothing made from wool is GER
tainly one of the universal necessi-
ties of the people-amounting to
about S32, 100000. Applying the es-
tablished rule that every dollar of
tariff tax collected by the govern.
ment represents five dollars collected
by the protected interests from con-
sumers, it will be seen that if the
Wilson bill had no other clauses in
it than those which relate to wool
and wooden goods, it would leave at
least $150,000,00O in the pockets of
the American people, which, under
the Mckinley regime, has been and
still is being taken out of them ev-
cry year.
A measure which will save the
head Of every family, in his annual
WOODEN purchases alone, the price of
suit of clothes, and will enable him
in many other ways to live more
cheaply or better, should meet with
the approval of every American citi-
zen.
In addition to this, it is admitted
that the changes in the wooden
schedules will stimulate the wool
raising industry The Democrats
are not alone in this claim, for such
eminent Republicans as John Sher-
man and Senator Allison have frank
ly admitted this to be true, and the
price Of wool in the past under high
tariff and no tariff laws will bear it
out.
If the Wilson bill had nothing
more to commend it to every con
sumner in the country, the wool
schedule alone is sufficient.-Cum-
berldnd Times.
