The Samoan Mascot.

In time of war it is the tapo's duty
TO lead on to combat the warriors Of her
village, and she is often in the thick Of
the skirmishing, but should she be
wounded or killed it is pure accident,
as the Samoans have the greatest horror
of hurting a woman in any way, and
would not even injure their enemy's
tapo. There is story told Of how, dur
ing the war which was carried ON in
Upolu for considerable time, five or
six years ago, two armies had met and
were drawn up, blazing into each 9th
er's lines, when q native woman ap-
peared with a cow she wished to place
in safety. The entire firing was imme-
diately suspended on both sides till she
and her charge had crossed the lines
and were completely out Of harm s way.
The women could rely so thoroughly
on the gallantry of their countrymen
that they had no fear during'the fight
ing, and would take food to their hus-
bands and brothers at any time, and pass
through the ranks of the warriors of the
belligerent army with perfect impunity (;
as long as the daylight lasted and they
could be easily seen they were quite
safe. TN Stevenson's Samoa" Marie
Fraser.

democrats. That party elected hardly
a dozen members north of Mason
and Dixon's line. The republican
maiorities in the northern states, in
Guiding Indiana, New York and New
Jersey, were enormous. Every one
of the twenty-eight northern states
voted against the democratic anarch-
lists. They lost the senate as well as
the house and it was put out of their
power to do any more mischief before
1897 at least. More likely it will be
impotent for evil until after 1900.
The crushing democratic defeat of
last fall was followed at once by
manifestations of hopefulness on the
part of the business classes. They
saw the democratic storm cloud pass
ing away, confidence began to be
restored, and the times grew better
There are no signs of slackening
up in the revival of business and the
increase of production. The only
weak point is the deficiency of rev.
enue caused by the laundering and
criminal tariff legislation of the dem
ocrats and the greater difficulty the
treasury meets with because of that
deficiency in keeping on hand suf'
fcient stock of gold. This is the
remaining cloud on the horizon.
Such are the facts as known to the
voters. And yet Brice comes for
ward with the nerve of veteran
stock gambler and claims that the
good-or, to speak more correctly,
the improving times-are due TO the
German Brice tariff law and Cleve-
lands policy of selling bonds TO make
good revenue deficiencies caused by
the course of his party in congress,
whereas the restoration of business
confidence and the resulting inn
provement were caused solely by the
crushing defeat given his party more
than ten months ago, followed by the
general defeat at the municipal cleo
tons held in different states this
spring.

Gold NuYgeta.

The structure of gold nuggets was
the subject Of paper recently read be-
fore the New South Wales Royal socie-
ty by Professor Liverbridge. Among
other facts stated was the popularity Of
such nuggets, on being cut through or
sliced and polished and then etched by
chlorine water, of exhibiting a well
marked crystalline structure closely re-
sembling the figures shown by most me-
tallic meteorites On heating such mug
gets in Bunsen burner blebs or blisters
form on both the polished and unpol-
ished surfaces, and ON still more strong
ly heating these in some cases burst
with sharp reports, and pieces of gold
are projected with considerable vio-
lence. AS no explosions have been OBJ
served ON dissolving or eating away the
crusts of these blisters by chlorine wa
ter it is thought that the blebs may
probably be due to the evaporization Of
some liquid or solid substance. Further,
in slicing some nuggets, scattered gran
ules Of quartz were met with inside, al
though quite invisible outside. At first
it was supposed that such explosions
might be due to the quartz, but the gas
in some instances continued TO issue
from the burst bleb-where the aper-
ture formed was small-and forced the
Bunsen flame out into lateral, just as if
urged by a blowpipe

Tons of 2,240 poundl

During the years 1902 the Ameri-
can output of pig iron averaged
$500, 900 tons year. During 1898 and
1894 it averaged only $3.50, 900 tons a
year. The output of the English iron
mines, which had reached $500, 600
tons in 1889, averaged only 1890, 600
tons during the following three years,
1902, when our output was the
largest under protection. Again in 1898
and 1894 their output increased just as
ours gradually decreased when the
threat of free pig iron nearly ruined our
industry. The hired English organs here
are not honest enough to make this ex-
hibit in connection with their claims for
free pig iron.

Carpet Trade Lost.

The boon of free wool very nearly
doubled our imports of carpets in May,
as compared with May, 1894. An in
crease from 37,90s square yards up TO
67,S42 square yards imported, and a
decrease from 2,4s7 yards exported in
May, 1894, down to 2s, 15l yards ex-
ported in May, 1895, shows such pecul-
iarities of free raw material benefits
that we should like the New York
Times to explain. An increase in i'm.
ports and decrease in exports seem,
somehow, contrary to all the free trade
theories that we have read about.

PROTECTION IN ENGLAND.

Home Industries Favored In the United
Kingdom.
The manufacturers of matches in the
United Kingdom appeal to their GUS
toners to buy only English matches, by
placing little printed slip inside the
cover of the box, asking the people to
"patronize home industry, use English
matches and employ British labor.
Large signs bearing the same views can
now be seen throughout. the country
districts of England This is exactly
what Republicans urge-namely, that
the American people should patronize
American home industries use Ameri-
can made goods and employ American
labor The English and American
manufacturers thus have precisely the
same ideas.
Following the plan of the English
match manufacturers, We find in an
other line of goods the following an
nouncement on the outside of a cover of
q package of British goods:

MANY home production is sold as

who, having no idea Of the high grade
and extensive manufactures of our own
shores, think that the better comes from
abroad "
This was the announcement made by
New York retail store situated on
Fourteenth street near Fifth avenue
This store made speciality of sale of
American products both before and after
the Fourth of July. If more retailers
would draw attention to the good
quality of American products, it would
be better thing for American indus
tries and American wage earners

Free eggs are of great assistance TO
the British farmers. The imports Of
eggs into the United Kingdom during
1894 were worth sls.426,l1s. With a
protective tariff upon eggs most of this
money would have been retained in the
British isles instead of being sent to
France, Germany, Belgium, Denmark
and Russia.

Infallible Proof of the workings Of Free
Trade and Protection.

Ryland's Iron Trade Circular gives
the pig iron production of the world
during the past 10 years. 1t shows more
clearly than anything else the direct
effect that protection had upon the pro-
ductior IF pig iron in the United States |;
also what the fear of free trade did in
lowering our production. The table
further shows how the policy of protec-
ton TO pig iron in the United States
was detrimental to the output in Great
Britain, and again, directly the fear of
free trade decreased our output, the
same reason acted as a stimulus upon
the product of the English mines. The
statistics are as follows:

Ority of our senator's favor the free coinage
of silver at n ratio of lG to ].
A year ago hardly Is in the whole senate
would have thought Of such thing, so stable
anl bright and alluriug and even rem cdial
did the single gold standard appear. We do
not know what else besides the stern reality
ofhard times could have brought about such
a change of sentiment. But it is a fact that
white metal is growing in favor. Even con-
servative old Germany that was go much
in favor OF the single gold standard last year
has seen the inetticiency of mono -metalism
has acknowledged the error Of its way and
is now advocating bimetalism. Well we live
to learn and we can : learn ii ali in a day.
The trouble with us Of the South however
is that in the experiment the money has
all flowed the other way, and by the time
We gain our point We will be penniless.
Free silver is undoubtedly coming, either
by international agreement or otherwise;
but il is coming so slow that We fear by the
time il gets here there will be little silver Of
any kind left in the South.

We see that our county Was not iepres MT
cd IN the meeting Of the farmers held IN
Columb's last Tuesday. We hope that the
meeting will result in good. The day is not
far distant when the farmers will appreciate
the fact that success in business cannot be
brought about by legislation or political
parties. OF course everyone knows that,
but somehow or other, politics has run away
with and wrecked every organization the
farmers have attempted. Business seems to
have been the objec. Of this meeting and
only business was discussed.
From business standpoint the sentiment
f the convention ON the three prominent
ubjects under consideration, fertilizers,
reigbt acreage, seemed to be sound. The
difficulty however is going to be found in
getting he farmers all over the state to "a
dopt the recommendations ma de by the COM
mi,tee. 1t is quite an easy matter to show
to your neighbor that he ought to use less
fertilizer and get it cheaper, of course i t
would be we'll for all of us TO curtail our ex-
penses rs much as possible, but it will not
be so easy to get everybody to put forth the
effort necessary to accomplish the result de-
sired. 1t is also easy to show that it would
be much better for all hands if the acreage
in cotton could be reduced by half, but it
will not be so easy to 80 throughly convince
your neighbors of that fact that they will
put in only half crop. The freight rate
also asked for is reasonable and we hope
will be secured.
Now if talk, talk, talk is to be the only
results, this convention and these recon-
mendations will not amour mt TO anythin e
and our farmers will continue TO get poorer
and poorer. What we want TO do is to put
in practice the course dictated by our best
judgement, aud not spend oil our energies
in talking about it.
