Iron Ore and the Wilson Bill.

Under the Mckinley bill. which lev
led duty of Is cents per ton on iron
ore, the price of that product reached
'the' lowest point ever known. The
present law, the Wilson bill, levies
tax of 40 eEats per ton on iron ore.
While importations have considerably
Increased under this law, home produc-
lion have also increased wonderfully and
the price has advanced SO that there is
q good: living profit in the business of
aiming The ore that is imported goes
to the furnaces and miles of the Allan
sic seaboard and encourages an indus
try employing thousands of men which
would languish and probably die out
entirely if the duty were higher.
/ The Range believes in protection but
like Garfield, in that kind of protection
which will eventually lead to free trade.
When there is no longer need of prote~-
tion what is the use OF putting on duties
for the sole benefit of combinations of
capital? Now that we know reduction
Of duty has actually benefited the ore
miner as we'll as the country in general
what is the use of harping about the
Wilson bill and make all sorts of false
statements about it bringing ruin and
disaster to the iron interest? - :
If the ore miners Of the Lake Super
lor field thought for moment that Mr..
Carnegie. Of Pittsburg, could buy foreign
ores at a less price than they have set
upon theirs for this seasons business
they would not be, holding out, as they
are now, against that gentlemen's effort
to beat down their price. (
: It is safe to say that Minnesota would
be much better off if there were no du-
ty at all, as free trade in ore would
compel the manufacturers to move their
plants nearer to the raw product and
our iron would be manufactured at
home instead of in Pittsburg and the
lEiast.~ Those Duluth gentlemen who
nave started a movement to bring about
The manufacture of small articles of iron
and steel in Duluth could further this
object in no better way than to demand
free trade in iron ore. It is shortsighted
business policy to work against ones
own interests simply through a stubborn
fealty to party policy .-Biwsbik Range.

THE LATE HERBERT E. FOWLER.

------E--
 A Former Resident of New Haven-A
 Fertile Inventor of, No Mean Rank
 A Resident of Naugatuck for About
 a Year.
 The world is always loser by the death of a man with fertile mechan- ical brain, or one possessed of invent i've genius, who has made the best use in his power of gifts bestowed upon him by his Creator The above is true in an especial degree of Herbert D. Fowler, whose death occurred this morning at his late home on Church street, at the, age of fifty-four years and eighteen days, after a ten-day's illness with spi- nal meningitis
 Every year of MT. FowIer's life had been spent in useful pursuits. He was a student in the true sense of the word, q solver of puzzles, in all that is use full, and genius to whom nothing me- chanical was too intricate to overcome.
 He came of family noted for its in- ventive genius, his father, De Grass Fowler, having been the inventor of the first machine for making horseshoe lleillS tllS VI Wl1lSll ilG CetI- ried on for years in Seymour. His un- cle was the inventor of large number of sewing machine parts and also of g number of Improvements in moving machines and reapers
 He himself was undoubtedly the peer of either of the above, in his ability in the inventive line. Among the various articles which owe their existence to his brain are the pipe. bending ma chimes, which revolutionized the pipe industry of this and all other countries; the twisted wire bristle brushes, found in every drug store in the land; the struck iron spoons, which revolution ized the spoon trade; the electro plat ing process now controlled by the Nau- gatuck company, of which he was for merly stockholder and superintend- ent, a process by which a heavy plate can be given to either wood or metal at very low cost. He invented explosive shells, for all kinds of firearms and can- non, machine for the separating of hooks and eyes after they are made, bridle for horses, and the Fowler overdraw check, beside nearly one hun- dred minor articles,
 i He was born in Northford, but early 1 in life removed to New Haven where he resided until May 1, 1895, when he removed his family to Naugatuck, al- though he himself had been here en- gagged in manufacturing since Decem- Der 1, 1894. He was the superintendent of the Naugatucb Manuf2 curing com pany from December l, 1894, until De- cember 1, 1895, when he disposed of his interest and resigned. He was married 1 thirty-four years ago to Miss Adelia M. Johnson of Wallingford, who sur wives him. The funeral services were held Tuesday morning at his late res idence, after which the body was taken to New Haven on the 1:29 train for in- l terment at Union cemetery in Fair Ha- 1 yen--Naugatuck News

A SAD REFLECTION.

Henry Weidig a letter carrier in the New Haven office, has lost the use of both his legs from the knees down. About six weeks ago he told Super- intendent of Letter Carriers Kennedy that he had severe pains in the head and was feeling badly otherwise. MT. Kennedy advised him to take rest, which he did. After few days he re- turned to work and remained until his vacation term arrived, two weeks ago. He then went to Rocky Beach near Woodmont. After his arrival there Weidig complained of pains in his legs, and a few days ago he lost all power of those limbs from the knees down.
 Weidig is about thirtyfour years old, and has a wife and family. He is an expert bicycle rider, and it was his custom to take long rides after deliver ing letters all day.

 The day employees of the New Haven Street Railway company held their an- nual excursion at Lighthouse Point yesterday. A special car and trailer left the power house at a. m. with fifty men on board. The party went from the green to Dixwell avenue where the DiXwell avenue men joined them. A picture of the men was taken by MT. Rodgers on Dlxwell avenue. The car was handsomely decorated and the men all wore white yachting caps A hand-organ furnished music during the ride.
 When the party arrived at the grove the athletic sports came off. The events were as follows:
 100 yards dash-First prize $1, K. Archibald, time Il seconds; second prize, James Hennessey; third prize, George Hubbard.
 Potato race-First prize $2, McViety; second prize $1, J. Burns.
 First wheelbarrow race-First prize s1, A. W. Sisson; second prize s1. G.. Hubbard; third prize $1, McViety.
 Second wheelbarrow race-First prize, box of cigars, J. Pierson.

 MT. Dodge, the superintendent, gave $50 for prizes, part of which was used yesterday and the rest to be used to- morrow, when the night mer will re peat the program.
 In the afternoon there was Q ball game on floats. At noon an excellent shore dinner was served by MT Taylor. In the evening dancing was carried on in the pavilion. Fitzgerald's orchestra furnished music
 About II o'clock the party returned to the city, saying they had spent a very enjoyable day. There was very large crowd present. a great many of whom went in swimming.
 The committee of arrangements de- serves a great deal of credit for the way the affair was carried out. It was as follows. M. J. Donlan, chairman; Richard Dickinson, secretary; J. Kline E. Signor, G. Hubbard, J. Hennessey G. Hope.
 The men all feel greatly indebted to their public spirited president. MT. Co rey, and to Superintendent Dodge, gen eral manager.

A PolSoMED D LIVER.
Don't Keep sPois6h tp Your Body Longer Than EoU Have To.

longer Than EDlr Fla ve 10. !, If your stomach spoisons your liver the consequences may be serious.
 What poisons arise in your stomach come from undigested food which has deoomposed theres They are absorbed by your blood and go to your liver, where they paraiyHa it's functions and make you bilious.
 < Finally they go into the blood again and are carried all3over the body, dis ordering your different organs, and perhaps making you dangerously sick.
 This is the origin of many diseases which are not always known for what they are ,e
 The poisons ot undissested food can only be geterfd of bHs the use of a puri fying, strengthening, digestive tonic, like the Shaker Digestive Cordial. . A few doses of this wonderful cordial will soon clear away all undigested, fermenting, poisonous substances, re- store your appetite, aid you to digest your food purify your liver and blood of all dangerous apoisons, and restores you to perfect health
 It will cure biliousness, indigestion, nausea; headache, dizziness, mental de- pression, weakness, fever, flatulence, constipation, loss of appetite, bad taste in mouth, stomach- ache, anaemia, rheumatism, etc, where other medi- cines will barely give relief.
