He will 20 lower, to 40, or even 30 cents, to

Manager Daval of the Continental said
yesterday: "I did not approve of some of
the methods under which the companies
went in. They told us we would have to
join one day or be cast into outer darkness
the next. My company did not propose
to be forced in that way. In letter to our
agents | have stated our position. This
letter says:
You will remember that in our former letter
we stated that any future organization must
provide for the protection of all local agents,
especially in the matter OF writing business
over their heads in San Francisco and for the
"adoption of schedule for mercantile risks as
will make possible and designate such improve
ments as will give the lowest possible rate to
the assured" Neither of these important, and
as we consider vital matters, have had atten-
ton.
We strongly object to the adoption of a non
intercourse rule, having taken such decided
grounds upon this subject as to make it thor
oughly inconsistent that we should take part
in such movement against other companies.
If, however, any action is taken by any new
organization or any of its members affecting
our business or agents IN any unfavorable man
ner whatsoever we will take such methods of
protection and retaliation as may seem best
We are prepared at the present time to stand
by you in defense of our business both as to
line and rate, and no agent need fear but that
every risk on his books will be protected by
the company. We are prepared in case OF any
difficulty to authorize lines up to fifty thousand
$3.50, ,O00) dollars, and while we deprecate and
will avoid, if possible, any Generalization and
will assist our agents in correct practices and
feel that we have consistently stood for their
rights, nevertheless we do not propose to be
diyested of our right to do business, and no
"boycott' in the shape OF fnon-intercourse'
regulations of any kind or description will
drive US from the field.
'sOur Oakland agent H. f. Gordon, was
forced to resign as agent of the Continental
company because he was also agent for the
Home Mutual and the North British COM
panies, and was threatened by them unless
he gave up our agency they would attack
his business.
''The boycott is being forced in Salt Lake
against the non-union companies by re-
fusal to grant policy on any property on
which we hold policies. This is either an
attempt to drive us out of business or force
us into the compact. We are quite con-
sistent in our position that we would join
the organization if it is drawn up for the
benefit of the people as well as for insur-
ance companies. And we shall not join

There are also a number of army and
navy men having financial interest IN the
enterprise. The invention has been pat
ented In the United States, England and
Belgium.
The gun is of new design in every re-
spect, and is different from any other
breech loader ever invented. 1t receives
four cartridges instead of two, and it's
mechanical arrangement admits or the
utmost rapidity in discharging the. shots.
The fourshots can be discharged within
second and half.
The gun is as symmetrical as any ordi-
nary double-5arreled gun, and weighs a
little over seven pounds. 1t can be made
as light as is desired.
In firing to the exhaustion OF It's four
shots the guR does not have to be taken
from the shoulder, nor does the relative
position of the arm have to be changed
nor the direction of the aim lost. The
breaking of the barrels from the breech
and the sliding OF them forward upon the
forearm automatically elects the first cart
ridges and simultaneously replaces them
with other cartridges in the magazine.
The mechanism which holds the shells to
the breech and the movement OF the bar
rels therefrom render 1t impossible Tor
the shells to bind or stick in the barrels.
The ejecting device works perfectly un-
der the most difficult tests. The loading
features of the gun in getting the two
cartridges in the barrels and the others in
the magazine in readiness for discharging
all four cartridges rapidly, give a mini
mum economy of time, and action superior
to anything that has ever been seen. It is
thought that in time the devices may be
applied to the big guns of the army and
navy.
BY leaving two loaded shells in the mag
azlne the gun can be carried in perfect
safety, and at any moment when occasion
arises these can be instantaneously thrown
into the barrels and fired at the same time.
With Interchangeable barrels the gun can
be made into a rifle, and it is thus thor
oughly available for all kinds of game,
from snlpe to elephants.

Holding Back Expenditures to Mislead
the Public.
AS was to have been expected, the ad-
ministration is beginning to hold back ex-
penditures in the closing days September,
in order to be able to send out to the coun-
try false and misleading report of the
governments financial operations for the
first quarter of the fiscal year. Democratic
organs are commencing their regular
monthly tactics Of proclaiming that ''at
last" the income Of the treasury under the
Wilson-Gorman tariff is equaling the
outgo. By the first of October we will see
a concerted attempt on the part Of apol-
gists Of incompetency to persuade the peo-
pie that there is really no need of tariff re-
vision.
This effort will be based, if the pnasstt REQ
ord of the Cleveland administration
counts for anything, on dishonest treasury
statistlos->'which will be "doctored" for
the purpose of showing surplus of two or
.Shree millions for September. The presi-
dent and his advisers realize the danger OF
allowing their party to go before the ooun-
try in November as the creature of tariff
that is piling up a deficit at the rate OF
more than $50, 100000 year. But, how
ever loudly the administration defenders
may shout, itwill-be perfectly easy for Re-
publican journals to convict them of false
hood by publishing detailed accounts OF

PROJECTIONS POLICY.
Establish Home Industries and Increase
Foreign Exports.


Foreign Exports.
Protectionists desire earnestly an eKpan-
sion Of our export trade. Their policy is
to establish firmly home industries and
let American ingenuity and enterprise do
the rest. Thus the manufacture of watches
at Waltham, Mass, Elgin, Ills, and else
where has been followed by the export Of
American watches to Europe, Mexico,
South America and Australia. This ex-
port trade is due primarily to the success
attained at home under protection.
II we did not make good watches at
Waltham and elsewhere, we could not
have encountered Swiss competition
abroad What is true Of the watch In
dustry is true Of many others. 1t would
apply 10 great many more industries II
they had received in the past years the en-
couragement to which they are entitled.
This country ought, for instance, TO be ex-
porting tin plate in large quantities, in
stead of buying IL from Great Britain.
The fippant writers who clamor for the
development Of our export trade by open
ing the gates to foreign products of all
kinds do not know how American manu-
facturers have with difficulty acquired a
footing abroad and retained it. Protec-
tion enabled them TO do it.

DO YOUR DUTY.

Republicans OF the Various Counties
Should Not be Apathetic.
Republicans of the several districts Of
the county should be preparing to poll as
large vote as possible. Over confidence
is the danger in this campaign. 1t is only
question of majority in Pennsylvania
The Republican tide is strong, and the
people are anxiously awaiting Republican
success both this year and next But in
order to emphasize this fact it is necessary
for those who believe In Republican prin-
ciples and policies to go to the polls and
express their sentiments. 1t must be re-
membered that this is an off year. Ordi-
narily we would have but a state treas
urer to elect, and in only few counties
are there county tickets to elect.
This year the Importance of the state
election is increased by the fact that we
have to elect seven judges who shall con-
stitute our superior court. 1t is seldom
the people have an opportunity of exercis-
ing so much power at one time as In the
coming election. On Nov. Z, they will
choose an entire appellant judicial tri-
bunal which shall exercise jurisdiction in
very large class Of important cases. The
legal ability of the gentlemen composing
the Republican ticket has never been
questioned. They are men Of high stand
ing In the several communities in which
they reside, and will honor the party and
the state in the administration Of the
judicial office.-Butler Eagle.
