H. P. Nail Company Employees Create . Sensation at Canton and HumiIiate
 Mark Hanna

CANTON, O., Oct. 5.-Among the delegations of visitors to this city Saturday to call on Mckinley was one from Cleveland. It was made up of employees of the II. r. Nail Company of that city. Every man wore new hat and new mackin- tosh. While iu Canton many of them declared that the outfit was gift from Mark Hanna, and that their transportation was paid by the Republicans. They also said that Il majority of the visitors were strong Bryan men, but they had come to Canton because the excur- sion was free and they needed coats and hats.
 They further asserted that they preferred to come to see Mckinley rather than lose their jobs Ut the indignation of Il Mckinley foreman. It was when the Cleveland crowd left for home that they became loud in their cries for Bryan.
 The delegation went to the Forest City crying: Who are we? Who are wei
 We are for Bryan, don'ty see?
 "Who paid our fair to Cantun9" cried one man.
 Mark Hanna, responded the workingman.
 "N ho paid our way back?" was the next question.
 "Nark Ilannh, was the unani- nous answer.
 "Who paid all our eXpenses?' came another query.
 "Maik Hannah yelled the men.
 "Who bought the H P. boys the coats and hats?" asked a serious citizen.
 "Mark Hannah, was the reply.
 And who are we going to vote for?"
 Bryan! Bryante
 Three cheers were given for Bryan time and time again.

UNDER SURVEILLANCE
Close Watch Being Kept on
 Filibustering Ships.
SOME STRICT ORDERS ARE GIVEN.

Revenue Cutter Boutwell, Follows the
 Steamer Dauntless, and the Captain
 Notified if Breakaway Occurs the
 DauntIess VIII Go Down-The Commo-
 dore and Three Friends Watched.
 NEW YORK. Oct. "A dispatch to The Herald from Jacksonville. Fla, says the filibustering steamer Dauntless put to sea this morning with the revenue cutter Boutwell, close behind, under orders to see that she did not stop ill the St. Johns river to take on any of the arms or munitions which are stored up Sisters creek near the mouth of the rlver. Before leaving port the captain of the cutter notified the captain of the Dauntless that if he made any attempt to run away from the cutter while with in the maritime jurisdiction of the United States he would sink her.
 The captain of the Dauntless report ed to the collector of customs that he was going to Brunswick to pull off the sandbar several vessels that were driv- on ashore by the recent storm. The collector gave the Dauntless permission to leave port under escort of the cutter, but gave positive orders that she should not be allowed to leave if she took on board an extra supply of coal that had been placed ill sacks ready for shipment.
 The coal was not on the wharf, but as soon as the Dauntless left port the own- CT of the Dauntless had the coal shipped by sail to Fernandina. The captain of the Daur 5less is now under bond for carrying or an expedition from Bruns- wick on Aug. 12. It is regarded as al- most certainty that the Dauntless will go to Fernandina, take on supply of coal and then go to the Laurada and transfer the men and cargo from the Laurada to Cuba.
 The United States man-of- war New ark arrived off the St. Johns bar Mon day night with instructions to follow the three vessels-the Dauntless, the Commodore and the Three Friends-if they should cross the bar. The Newark left Key West under sealed orders on Saturday, and yesterday the command CT of the Boutwell, received information that the Newark would assist in watch ing the alleged f1libustering fleet.
 The captain of the Commodore has applied to the collector of the port for permission to put to sea, as he has been requested by Major J. w Sackett of the engineer corps at St. Augustine to go to Gilberr's bar and tow govern ment dredge to Cape Florida Collector Bisbee has not yet granted permission, as he has instructions from the treasury department not to grant the Commodore clearance papers until further orders.
 One of the owners of the Commodore informed the collector that the steamer was going to sea and that if the cutter Boutwell, attempted to stop the Con- modore the cutter had better load with solid shot. for they did not intend to bulldozed any longer The cutter Mo :. Till will relieve the Boutwell,, which will go on the ways.

The Cotton-Pieker Again.

Reports from the trial of a new contemplating machine in Sebastian county, Ark, open to view q long vista of economic and race changes in the South. Once perfected in a way to make it available for general use in the cotton belt, as the reaping machine is in the grain country, there will be arevolutioninS Southern agriculture scarcely less than that which followed Whitney's invention of the cotton gin near the end of the last century.
 The money paid for picking is one of the largest single items, if not the largest, in the cost of making tae cotton crop. Beginning in July and continuing until near Christmas, when the fall weather is fine, the cotton harvest gives abundant em- ployment and good wages to an immense number of farm laborers.
 It is the season when the planta- tion negro, who is ambitious to work. has the best opportunity to get some money ahead. The piekers are paid by the hundred weight of seed cotton gathered. receiving q price which represents q cent and d half or. two cents a pound of lint. When the crop is large and the de mend for pickers great, the cotton picking season is a time of fatness not only for the plantation negroes, but for the Lomadic farm laborers who follow the season and the ripen- ing crops northward from Texas in the Spring to the Great Lakes by midsummer and return Southward in time to get their winters supply of money from the cotton fields.
 The Contemplating machine, when at last it comes into general use, will change all this. A team and two or three men will do the work of d score or more of hand-pickers. Even the rich lowland plantations will be half depopulated of their negro laborers, who will be driven to seek in Mexico orCuba otheremploy- ment for their muscle.
 The cost price will be consider ably reduced and the yield probably 1 increased on the big lowland plan tations. This may be the reverse of an advantage to the small upland farmer, who will more than realize the necessity ofdiversiiying his crops and looking to other of the many profitable products of the Southern soil and climate for his subsistence and thrifty independence.
 l This Arkansas picker is not the | first venture into this field of inven- | tion. Some years ago d similar machine was exhibited near Dallas, Tex, and, later, was advertised for practical use. But little has been heard of it of late.
 The earlier machine collected the lint from the open boil by series of revolving brushes; the later one by means of suction tubes, which, it seems, ought to take up the cotton cleaner of hull and woody fiber. l It Is too soon to say that the cot ton picking machine has yet been de- yised that will supplant hand-pick- ing. But such a machine is almost in sight. When it comes if will put a new face on farming and planting in the South.-Republic.

Mr.. BUSIoS SPEECH


Ma. @. p. Bush, as announced last
week, spoke here last Thursday night TO
a large and attentive audience, Of both
ladies and gentlemen, in the interest Of
sound money.
While the News differs with Mr.. Bush
on the money question IL is free TO admit
that he handled his subject we'll and
made good peech. He has given the
subject much thought and study as his
spetc h showed, but he sees it and rea-
sons from the standpoint of a railroad
man alone, leaving out OF the question
entirely large element in this country
from which railroads alone get their bus
iness, the farming element. Everybody
knows that when the farmers in this
country are prosperous the railroads are
prosperous. That without the business
of the farmers railroads could not exist.
That when farm products are ia demand
and bring good prices the railroads are
called upon to move them and from this
class Of business they derive their largest
revenue. Mr.. Bush admitted in his
speech that free silver would enhance
the price Of farm products and that the
farmer would be more.prosperous, yet he
says free silver would ruin the country
and throw us into panic such as this
country never experienced in its history.
Right here we beg to differ with Mr.
Bush. The farmers of this country not
only compose the largest producing class
but they are also the largest consuming
class. With proper remuneration for
their labor and fair prices for their pro-
ducts, they are enabled to consume more
of the products OF other industries and
pay better prices for the same. The re-
suit would be general revival of bust
ness all around; idle mills and idle fac
tories would start up, idle men would be
put to work, and the wheels of COM
merce would turn faster and with better
profits. Railroads would haul greater
quantities of goods both ways and they
would thus be enabled to employ more
men and give their employees better
wages. The industrial and commercial
interests of this country are 80 inter-
woven and dependent, one upon the
other, that what Injuries one Injuries all,
and what benefits one is to the welfare
OF all others. Give us more money,
cheaper money, money that will circu-
late among the people and the business
of this country will take care OF itself
