NEW cAxpAles OF EDUCATION

The first campaign Of education
on the tariff was ono OF argument.
1t carried the country for reform,
but had no practical effect because
a Republican Senate blocked the
way.

tion is one of experiencc--the best

and effects of n tariff reformed In
part aud the demonstration il more
effective than all the speeches that
were ever written.
Wool was made free, as IL was
for forty years In this country and
has always been in every other
manufacturing country in the
world. The duties on wOollen
manufactures. were corresponding
~ reduced. Are the farmers ruin
ed? Are our woollen mills given
over to the owls aud the muskrats :?
Have wages gone down to the
"pauper level of EurOpe?"
Quite the contrary. Within a
fortnight there has been an aver
age rise In the price of wool of two
cents Il pound. The price of sheep
is increasing. Idle mills have
started up on full time. Thirty
eight new factories wern contract
ed for in the first six months OF
this year against only seventeen
in the same period last year. The
wages of woollen operatives have
been voluntarily increased from
ten to twelve per cent. And the
people are getting more and better
and cheaper clothing.
The duties on iron ore and on
coal were reduced nearly one-half
The iron industry has not been sc

, and wages in it have everywhere
advanced.
Tin ore was made free aud the
duty on tin-plate reduced one. half
The industry is increasing ant

The duties on cottons were re

MANY SLAUGHTERED.-A dispatch
from Constantinople says: Detail have
been received here of the recent attack
made by a band of Bulgarians upon the
Mahommetan village of Dospat, across

The attack, it appears, occurred at
dawn and while the villagers were
asleep. The Bulgarians used dynamite
bombs and set fire to the houses when
the inhabitants tried to escape. Men,
women and children, tits claimed, were
killed Unfortunately, and according

THE ELECTRIC RAILwAY.-A mort
gage was filed in Washington yester-
day as record of the agreement of the
president of Washington, Alexandria
and Mount Vernon Railway, in consi6-
Grafton of the sun of $4,000, advanc
ed by the Real Estate Trust Company,
of Philadelphia, to give q first deed OF
trust upon all of the property of the
corporation. The mortage was the re-
suit of a meeting of the stockholders,
held February 20, in this city, for the
purpose Of retiring 5000, 900 in bonds
owned against the road by James S.
Swartz and Frank K. Ripple, and for
the purpose of paying for the new ex-
tension to Washington, via Arlington
National Cemetery. The money ad-
vanced is to be for 750 coupon bonds
Of 81, 900 each, bearing 5per cent. inter
est. The bonds are dated August /,
1894. A failure to pay the interest
within six months after due, or the
principal within six months after date
of maturity, will result in the foreclo
sure on the road. The mortgage bears
the signature of G.. E. Abbot, pre-
sident of the railroad, and Frank K.
Ripple, president of the Trust Com
pany. Duplicate copies have been
placed on file with the clerk of Fairfax
county, the clerk of Alexandria county,
and the Clerk of the Corporation Court
of this city.
The Washington correspondent of
the Richmond Dispatch says: 1t is un-
derstood that the Mount Vernon Elec-
trio Railway will eventually get into
Washington, and the purpose of the
officers of the company is to have the
line run also to Arlington. The tight
ness of the money market retarded
very much the progress ofthe extension,
and besides the company kept waiting
on Congress to pass a bill giving them
the right to construct a bridge across
the Potomac. That difficulty can be
obviated by making terms with another
company. As q result of this road,
Alexandria and Fairfax counties are
improving rapidly, and the country for
miles is building up. Several new
towns, on the opposite side of the river,
have been started, and only yesterday
q postofice was established at st. Elmo,
in Alexandria county. Several years
ago this was nothing but a common.
Nowhere are numbers of houses, and
streets have been laid out. 1t is bound
to grow, and so will the other towns
along the steam and electric railways.
Washington people are getting homes
yer them because taxes are so much
lighter, aud they can buy on most fav-
orable terms.
