TO CERTAIN ESTEEMED DEMO
Gratis,

To the Hon. EDWIN ID. MCGUINNEss
THE NEWS extends its congratulations
on the evident fact that he is immensely
popular with great many thousands
Of his fellow citizens.
The NEWS is particularly glad OF the
opportunity to so express itself, because
1t feels tnst the ability, integrity and
personal character of the leader OF the
Democracy in the campaign now closed
should command for him full measure
OF popular goodwill and confidence.
The NEWS, as the only newspaper in
town that supported the Republican
candidates, has taken the greatest pains
that no line should be written that
could be construed as a reflection on the
esteemed candidate of the Democratic
party. Facts would never have warrant
ed any other course Of action and THE
NEWS believes in facts and fairness.
Accordingly while our cartoon depart
ment has INDUCED in little timely
mischief at your expense, Major
MCGUNYEss, THE News is confident
that there has been no sting
in the playful pictures, as 1T is
confident that in its editorial utterances
The NEWS has never printed a word
that you would care to have it recall.
To the Hon. MATTHEW j. CUMMINGS,
THE NEWS also extends the assurances
of its profound respect. In the face Of
popular endorsement, such as you
have received, The NEWS cares to make
at this time no contention to your
claims to continue in office. The NEWS
has not been satisfied with your
administration and was frank TO say
SO, although it declined TO enter
upon personal campaign even
though such campaign offered the only
means for completely expressing the
views of THE News on your incumbency.
You have given satisfaction 10 a major
ity of your fellow citizens and The
NEWS congratulates you accordingly.

THE PRICE OF IRON.

Nothing is more significant OF the
tremendous decrease in the selling price
OF commodities that may be reckoned as
necessi ties, than the remarkable decline
In the price of American iron and steel
since 1890. The cheapening process began
to be operative long before 1890, but
commercial values have dropped in the
most marked manner since then.
OF course the decrease is due almost
wholly to the influence of improved pro-
cesses of manufacture. This reduction
has now reached point where Ameri-
can producers are able to successfully
compete with foreign producers, and
there are many gratifying signs that a
large foreign trade may be built up at
once.
1t is pointed out by a radical free-trade
newspaper, the New York Times, that
the price Of Bessemer pig varies but 10
cents per ton between PIttsburg and
Birmingham; and it goes on to show
how rapid has been the cheapening pro-
cess, arguing therefrom that a high
protective duty is not now needed for the
iron and steel industry, and inferentially
that it never has been needed. 1t is
shown that whereas the price of steel
billets at Pittsburg was $50 80 per ton in
1890 it Is now $3.50.
The writer proves too much, however.
1t is noted that the greatest technical
and statistical authority, Mr.. JOHN
BIRKINBINE. has shown from the records
OF a big iron company that the cost Of
materials and labor, per ton
of iron, had declined as fol-
lows: Cost of fuel per ton Of pig iron.
from $l007 in 1869 to s3.4s in 1892; cost
Of ore, from $l42l in 1883 to 1874 in
1892; cost Of limestone, from $1.30 in
1869 TO 80 cents in 1892; cost of labor,
from $500 in 1871 to s.. 04 in 1890. Since
1892. however, the cost of the iron ore
used in the Pittsburg and Ohio districts
has been reduced by 40 per cent, and
there has also been marked decline in
the cost of coke.
Il uis tApcIt bNdbcu lHhL uOuerD
blast furnace now produces as much
iron in day as the old style charcoal
blast furnace OF 90 years ago did in
month, and some OF them four times as
much. Iron OF various kinds is now ex-
ported from this country, an order for
$4,000 worth for japan having recent
ly becn placed with Alabama concerns,
and 100000 worth for tho Sandwich
Islands.
That cheerful view of the future Of
American iron is probably "a correct as
1t is agreeable. There is no reason why
we may not hope TO sell iron and steel
TO other countries ia competition with
England; but It is extremely pertinent
10 inquire how this condition came about,
and under what auspices the American
iron and steel industries arrived at the
point where IL can be said VI them that

China and load her with great debt, in
order that the China trade may DO con-
trolled by her own merchants and Dig
interest charges flow into the Golfers OF
the English money-lenders England
is anxious to stifie China's tea trade. and
she will find way TO do it out OF the
consequences of this war unless some
stronger power denies her the sweet
privilege of satiating her avarice.
Is ii the Office of the United States to
pull the trade chestnuts out OF the
China-Japan fire for England? What
other fair construction can be put upon
Mr.. GREsHAM's anxiety to act?
The desires OF Russia are far more
dignifed than those of England. Rus
sia seeks to enlarge the powers and bor-
ders of her empire to the Pacific. She
now touches the ocean at Vladivostock,
a port too far north to be sufficient for
her needs. 1t is Russia's wish to secure
a more southern port, to utilize as her
Pacific entre-pot and as the central
point OF her power in the East. The
great Trans-Siberian railway sorely
needs a better Eastern terminus than
the icy port north of China.
How is the United States to arbitrate
these complex questions, which from
their very nature have never been under
stood nor appreciated in this country
From every possible point of view
affecting diplomatic expediency and
wisdom, the proposal TO dip into the
turgid waters of the Eastern question
seems not only wrong and unnecessary,
but hare-brained to the verge OF actual
idiocy. II the matter be lifted quite out
of and above the plane of mere ex.
pediency it reveals itself to be even more
reprehensible, and to be condemned.
Japan is the evangel of the East. The
work she is engaged in is of a character
to enlist the warmest sym mpathies of the
American people. She is scraping the
barnacles of Chinese idolism. She
is knocking holes in the black screen
SHiud uds scJ DtlNctH HcT pcopic
and the light Of the world. Japan
ought to be applauded and sustained,
encouraged, cheered, aided in every
proper way. China ought to be given
no smallest ray of hope that any notice
whatever would be taken of her plead
ings until she not only throws down her
arms in unconditional surrender to the
conquerers, but binds herself TO put her
face toward civilization and put away
forever the revolving barbarism under
which her people have fallen from deg
radiation to degradation until they are
not fit companions for beasts.
If the United States cannot help on
the enlightcning work of Japan, as il can
only by sympathy, it surely has no right
to place the smallest of implied obstruc-
tions in the way.
Let Mr.. GRESHAM see to it that the
United States government attends very
strictly to the large and expanding task
of minding its own business; and let
England pull her own hot taels from the
Japan-China fire.

SALVADOR, Nov. 2S.--The uprlsings at
Santa 1rela are much more i'm poItant
than the Government will confess, and it
~ untrue, as given out, that they were
merely attempts at robbery by Indians,
nor were they partisans OF Ezeta but they
are the result of the constantly Increasing
jealousies among the very men " no headed
the revolution which placed Gntierez in
the presidency and are In great part insti
gated by Barrios agents from 0uatarnala.
The weakness OF Gutierrez EN- boldens his
sdversaries as he is trying TO keep IN will
the three rings Of his party which is held
by Prudenclal Blnaro, present Minis
ter OF DE Gobernscion, who leads
the young Liberals, General Estanislao
Perez, minister, who leads strong Catho-
lie league, and General Thomas Rsgaldo,
who controls the army. These
three men are the candidates for
the vice. presidency, and the fight bstwesn

The Why and Wherefore.

There is nothing marvellous in the
fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla should
cure 60 many diseases. When you re-
member that majority of the dis
orders ''fesb is heir to'' are due to i'm
pure or poisonous condition of the
blood, and that Hoods Sarsaparilla is
an effective q I'D radical blood purifier,
the whole thing is explained.
Besides its blood purifying qualities,
Hoods Sarsaparilla also contains the
best vegetable stomach tonics, diure
tics, kidney remedies and liver inyigor-
ants, and is thus an excellent specific
for all disorders of these organs, as
we'll as for low condition of the system
or that tired feeling.
