That the Wilson tariff bill is detri
mental to home interests and highly
beneficial to English interests is very
clearly demonstrated in many ways.
Its beneficial effect upon the English
wool manufacturing interests is very
clearly shown in the largely increased
importation of woolen goods in the past
ten months, which exceeds that Of the
same period last year when the Nc
Kinley bill was in effect. by $50, 900, ,0OO
The democratic cry Of free wool stim
ulating the home manufacture Of wooden
goods to an extent that would result in
our supplying the world, was only one
of the many vagaries forced upon US by
the mistaken policy OF the most incom-
peteht combination of so called states
men that ever presided over the des-
TIMES Of the nation.

A Sturgis Sensation.

Early yesterday morning it was re-
ported that man had been found dead
at Sturgis and was supposed to have
been poisoned. The facts as far as
brought out up to this time are that Ed.
Green, who is one of the best krown
men in the northern Hills where he has
resided since early times, died early
yesterday morning either as the result
Of poisoning or from the excessive and
continuous use Of alcoholic stimu,ante.
The coroners jury soon began investi-
eating the case and found great OBJ
stacle in the fact that the mans life for
many years would feed the theory that
he died from the direct use Of poor
whiskey. while many little circum-
stances and public prejudice went to
show that he was drucged at certain
dance hall in order to get few hundred
dollars in money which he il said to
have had on his person. Lead Tribune.

Congress convened on Monday, but
little, If any legislation will be effected
unit! after the holiday recess. The
most notable feature in the new house
is the presence of so many new re-
publican faces. The utter rout Of the
democratic party in the congressional
elections last fall, says Washington
correspondent, became apparent for the
first time to the naked eye when the
new house of Representatives assembled.
No such revolution in the personnel OF
the members has occurred in recent
years at least. Exactly 1853 new faces
appeared in total Of 356 members.
Some OF the oldest and most tried lead
ers among the democrats were swept
out by the tide which rolled up a repub.
lican majority Of l46 in the Fifty fourth
house. OF ninety four districts north
Of Mason and Dixon's line, which were
represented by democrats in the last
congress, but fifteen returned democrats
to the new house. In the new house
the republicans control thirty -one of the
fourty.four state delegations. which in
sure that party the next presidency,
should the election be thrown into the
house. They have twenty solid delega
tions while the democrats have but four.
In the once "solid south" the Kentucky
and Tennessee delegations are almost
evenly divided. In North Carolina and
Missouri the republicans control. The
West Virginia delegation is so!id!y re-
publican. Texas and Virginia each
have republican and South Carolina
and Alabama send populists The num-
rer of populsts in the house is reduced
from twelve to six.

A Poor Pork Market.

Much has been said abou. the advi-
stability of Fall River c,unty grangers
raising pork for home consumption but
the fact was clearly demonstrated to day
that many of our local dealers would
prefer to import their pork-pay high
freight rates and send the money out Of
the country-rather than patronize
neighboring ranchers who spent their
money here. Will Tice brought in a
fine porker to day and after spening
several hours in vain endeavor to sell
it, was compelled to haul it back to the
ranch. Further comment is unneces.

The true northerner., 1895-10-18

Our democratic friends don't like
the republican party, they say, be-
cause it is a sectional party-the
north against the south. This is
about as near to the truth as the
usual thunder of the democratic
campaigner. Let us see: In the
congressional elections of 1894 more
than twice as many republicans we're
elected in the old slave states as
there were democrats in the rest of
the country. That no one may
question the assertion, we will par
ticularize. The democrats elected
outside the old slave states numbered
l3, as follows: One each is California
and Massachusetts, two each in Ill
inois, Ohio and Pennsylvania and
FIVE in New York. In the old home
of slavery the republicans elected 33,
as follows: one each in Delaware,
Texas and Virginia, three in Mary
land, four each in North Carolina
Tennessee and West Virginia (being
the entire congressional delegation of
the latter state,) five in Kentucky
and ten in Missouri. In other
words, in the old south, comprising
about third of the country, the re-
publicans elected nearly three times
as many congressman in 1894 as the
democrats did in the other two
thirds; while the democrats succeeded
in carrying not a northern state and
got a representation in but six Of
them, ranging from one to five in
number. That fact does not prove in
any degree the sectionalism of the
republican party, which carried the
entire delegation of one state of the
old south and secured representation
in eight other of the ex-slave states,
ranging from one to ten in number.
If there is any such thing as sec-
tional party in American politics to-
day, that party is the democratic
party, which relied almost wholly for
its representation in the new con-
gress upon the success of its candi-
dates in the section of the country
comprised in the old slave states.

In 1893, under the Mckinley tariff,
39,101,1 ,12S pounds of salt we're inn
ported into this country. In 1895,
under the German tariff, 496, ,522 ,101
pounds were imported. 1t will be
plainly seen that the democratic
tariff is a mighty good thing-for the
foreign salt producers, even if it is a
little tough on the great industry of
the Saginaw valley.

ACCORDING TO government statis-
tics, the wool clip of 1895 is a little
less than two hundred and ninety.
five million pounds, or some three
million pounds less than the clip of
1898. So it will be seen that free
wool has not given an impetus to
the wool growing industry, at least
so far as the amount of the product
is concerned. But our free trade
friends were positive that free wool
would be boon to the American
farmer, and if the benefit has not
come to them in larger demand
for American woods and consequent
growth in the amount of the produc-
ton, it must surely have come to
them in an increased price, or else
somebody has deceived the farmers
who voted for free wool. Let us see
how that is. According to authentic
reports from the Boston wool markets,
American heeces have declined from
y to 15 cents per pound and secured
woods from 10 to 274 cents per pound
between Oct. l, 1891, and Oct. l.
1895. On the other hand, FOREIGN
wooLs WERE HIGHER Oct. i, 1895,
than FIVE years before. Free wool is
a great thing, isn't it?
