often at wide intervals, five volumes

nation that throws light upon the New

TRIBUTE TO REV. LUOIUS R.
PAIGE, DID,.

Rev. Arson Titus preached on Sun
day, September 6. to his former parish.
toner's in South Weymouth. Mass. In
this parish resides Rev. Elmer Hewett,
who will be 81 years old September Is.
He was ordained in September, 1929.
Mr.. Titus spoke in memory of DIR, Paige
as follows:-
Lucius Robinson Paige, the Christian
Commentator and student of American
history has at last gone forward to the
realms of endless day. At ripe age
possessing every faculty, he takes the
employments of immortality where age
and weariment are not known. DIR.
Paige entered upon the Universalist
ministry by preaching his first sermon
in Charlestown in 1923, seventy three
years ago. He was never pulpit orator,
but always the writer OF vigorous CON-
ments upon the sacred message. 1t was
delight to be his companion, and know
of the good cheer which he bore in in
terpreting holy things, or the choicest
things of ancestry or of our national
history. Our mind was often wrought
with warm glow amid new admirations
for the man. His life was long, but
there was an evenness of faithfulness in
it all. Ninety-four years is long while.
In him we could shake hands with a
man whose father was at the memorable
Concord and Lexington. The ministers
of the olden days are passing. DR.. Saw
yer, the scholar and pulpit orator. and
Father Elmer Hewett the beloved friend
and faithful pastor, are now the seniors
in the ministerial ranks. We regard it
delight to have known these men, and
knowing their struggles and living
makes it easier for US amid the labors of
life. These men have labored and the
younger workers enter their labors and
so the work Of God goes on. 1t is meet
that we reflect, be reverent' and submits
sive when the aged die; but we cannot
and ought not mourn with ceaseless sor-
row. The living of the aged and noble
should open vistas for US, should clear
the way of trouble and doubt, and make
life more open and plain. The attrac-
tions of earth may vanish. friends and
those revered pass on, but faith, love
and Immortality as shown in Jesus
Christ glows and grows brighter as the
heavenly gates are pushed ajar.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1896-09-26

The death is announced, at the ripe
age of eighty five, of Sir William r.
Grove, inventor of the Grove battery,
and author of a lecture, delivered in
1912, on The progress of physical
science since the opening of the London
Institution" in which he advanced the
theory of mutual convertibility of nat
ural forces. This theory was developed
in an essay, written the following year,
"On the correlation of the physical
forces" He was we'll known also. for
his discoveries in electricity and optics.
Two rather good "bulls" are attri.
buted to the late Sir George Campbell.
On one occasion he had been calling at
tention in the House of Commons to
some abuse in Indian administration,
and proceeded to observe that he had
further relations to make concerning
other scandals in comparison with
which this one was "a mere fiee-bite in
the ocean," Another time; when speak
ing about military affairs in India he
declared that "the pale face of the Brit.
ish soldier was the backbone of our In
dian army"

join gladly, then there must come time
for the nations friendly to bimetallism
TO unite, not in monetary union, but a
tariff union, reciprocity being the re-
ward of free coinage for silver.
This should be our aim in America:
WE RECOGNIZE THE GREAT IN
CREASE IN THE BURDEN OF OUR

BOUNTY ON EXPORTS WHICH ASIA
NOW ENJOYS. This can be best done
by monetary agreemnt with other ma
tions favorable to silver, and by such a
scale OF high tariffs against those ma
tons which reject monetary agreement
as will go far to insure us favorable
balance of trade. IN SHORT, A HIGHER

1t is the opinion Of several Of the pro-,

that the trust has adopted pan whereby

People Pay the Piper.
Chicago, Oct. 14.-The Times-Herald,
q gold bug organ says:
Leather has gone up again. Shoes that
cost So last week will cost $3.50 this week
and the end is not yet. The big leather
trust, with an eye to the price in Wall
street Of the securities OF its $l2O 0OO,OoO
cooperation, has announced boom in
leather. The numerous trusts of smaller
calibre that are associated with the big
leather trust have followed it's lead. 1t
is further believed that the leather trust
and dressed beef men have come to a
pleasant understanding. 1t IS, there
fore, in order for the people who wear
shoes to step up to the captains Office
and settle.
Ten big corporations-capt ious people
call them trusts-control the manufac-
ture of boots and shoes in this land Of
the free. They don't make them, not a
bit of it. They simply have control of
the materials used in their manufacture
and they use that advantage to keep up
the price of the manufactured product
and thereby prevent ordinary people
from getting cheap footwear.
NAMES OF THE TEN.
The United States Leather Company
this concern practically controls the pro-
duction of hemlock sole leather, which is
used in the boots and shoes worn by
miners, farmers and workmen in gen.
eral.
The United States Rubber Company
This corporation is credited with fixing
the price of all the rubber boots, shoes,
ETC., manufactured in this country.
The Milwaukee Oh Grain Combination
This association produces and controls
nearly all of the oil grain leather used
for the uppers in workingmens shoes by
all western manufacturers. In order to
keep it's patrons in line, and guard
against any cut in price. it exacts for
felt of $4,000 from each Of its memb ers
This combine, because of its large sue
cess in its own line, has lately extended
it's operations toward calfskins, waxed
upper and satin oil leather, as we'll as
waxed calfskins. 1t has not at present
secured absolute control OF this latter
field.

This association also has a minimum

This association has lately absorbed

TOM REED.
What He Thought Of Free Silver .
SHIRT Time A0n

w NAT he Thought u Tee SHvSE q
SHIRT Time Ago.
The dispatches state that Speaker Tom
Reed, of Maine, is hors du combat, and
has lest his voice, so that he may not
further advocate the election OF McKin-
ley. Perhaps this is more fortunate for
Mr.. Reed and his admirers than might
be thought, il indeed he was to be
squelched in the same manner the
other prominent campaigners have been
springing upon them proof of their in
cons.stencies.
In the Fortnightly Review for June,
Speaker Reed, which certainly puts him
in as bad light as the other Republican
stumpers, including Candidate Mckinley,
where the effect of their campaign efforts
has been entirely destroyed by spring!ng
upon them what they had previously ex-
pressed on the same subject, directly OPP
posite their present views. This inter-
view which was by an Englishman will
be found on page 837 of the bound vo.-
uumn, which is No. 81, as found by a
Penny Press reporter In the South Side
Branch of the Minneapolis City Library.
The interview said:
'Mr. Reed, I want you, II you will, to
give me glimpse Of the future policy Of
the Republican party. Your party with
the flowing tide behind you, is likely to
control the house after the next election,
and probably the country three years
hence. We, in England, are infinitely
concerned by the two great issues here
silver and the tariff; what are we to ex-
pect OF your party when you return to
power?"
Il suppose" said Mr.. Reed, chat what
is on your mind is this: You, In Eng
land, want us to lower duties, and what
will you give in exchange? Will you
open your minis to the free coinage of
silver by international agreement? In
any event, you may rely on this: YOU
WILL NOT FIND THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY OFFERING THE OTHER
CHEEK, AS THESE DEMOCRATIC
GENTLEMEN DO. For years past they
have been posturing as the friends of
silver, and because you, in England, have
now closed the Indian minis and put a
duty on all silver bullion imported into
India, these friends OF free silver in
the Democratic ranks are now prepared
to reward your generosity by lowering
our tariffs all round. ONE THING AT

Candidate for Reelection From the

County Commissioner Ed ~. Conroy IS
a candidate for A second term, being
unanimously nominated by both Demo-
Gratis and Populists, and there are many
reasons why he should and will be re-

Ninth wards and the Town Of st. An

Ed Conroy was elected In 1892 to serve
four years, and although but 20 years OF
age when elected, has made one OF the
best commissioners the county has ever
had. He was we'll liked by his associates
on the board, regardless of politics, and
although that body was Republican, he

he does the trade Of plasterer and mason,
