A CONSPICUOUS and dearly beloved
figure in the annals of our statehood
aas been removed through the death
OF General Lucius Fairchild. which
occurred Saturday evening at his
'home in Madison General Fairchild
was prominent and able without be
1ng great intellectually; he WAS al
vways sale and to be tru~tel he was
good, honest and true-a thoroughly
Christian gentlemen. Perhaps no
snan in Wisconsin's history has occu-
pied warmer or closer place in the
hearts of his fellow-citizens, and over
his loss the whole state mOurns sin
@cerely. Whether as the dashing, gal
liant soldier with so heroic a record
an the rebellion, or as the safe, con-
sentative and popular governor, or
as the strong, dignified foreign diplo-
mat, or as the friendly, noble and in
Gelligent citizen, Falrchild was ever the
same true and honest spirit. Hewas
laid to rest yesterday with appropri-
ate ceremonies and with the military
distinction due a brigadier- general
The attendance Of mourning friends
was very large.

 Victory in November.

CANTON, Sept. 24.-In his address to the Lorain county delegation yesterday Major Mckinley said in part: 'It is gratifying to know that on great questions which are divided Abraham Lincoln stood from the beginning of his early manhood where we stand today. We have the satisfaction of know ing that in the present struggle we are close to him and have his approval Of the great principles we advocate, (Applause.) No man has shown more thorough knowledge of the tariff and it's influence upon domestic prosperity than he. Fortythree years ago he made an address upon the subject of tariff and taxation and the effects upon the condition of the country which l do not think has been ex- celled by anybody before or since. It is particularly applicable to the present situation. Lincoln said the first Of our resolutions declare tariff of duties upon foreign i'm portations producing sufficient revenue for the support of the general government and so adjusted as to protect American industries to be indispensibly necessary to the prosperity of the American people, and second declares direct taxation for National revenue to be improper"
 In conclusion of his address Major Mckinley said: "Fighting under the banner of protectson to labor and home industry, recipro- city, sound money, patriotism, law and order, we cannot but march to triumphant victory in Novem- ber."

THE copper production of the
 United States in August, as report
 ed by MT. John Stanton for the
 producers, showed only compara- lively small increase over that of
 last year, indicating some diminu-
 tion in activity at the mines. For
 the eight months ending with Aug gust, the total production of copper
 in this country has been, according to the same authority, 134,775
 long tons, an increase of no less than 26,O49 tons, or 24 per cent
 over the corresponding period of
 last year. So great a comparative gain shows the capacity of our pro- 1ucefs.
 Large as this increas has been, it has not kept pace with that in ex- ports. These have amounted this year to 98,322 tons, or 58 per cent. of the total production, these figures showing an excess over last years of 34 301 tons, or 7S per cent, The increase in exports was greater by 8.252 tons than that in production. The foreign output this year shows only very slight change-a gain of per cent. but the consump- ton in Europe has evidently grown in an extraordinary way, since the stocks reported on hand have not increased since the beginning of the year, notwithstanding ou" heavy shipments.-Emgineeriag and Mining Journal.

CANDIDATE Bryan asserts that the free and unlimited coinage oI silver by this country alone will raise its bullion value to $1.29 an ounce Tn gold throughout the world. There is nothing in history upon which to base this assumption. Why did not the price rise, instead of fall, during th9 Bland Allison and Sherman acts2 And again, why does not the free coinage in other countries keep up the price of silver?
