FRACAS IN FORE STVILLE.
Joe Fernandez and Paul Jones Have a
Lively Set to.

At an early hour this morning
FOrestville was the scene of a very
lively scrap between Joe Fernandez,
ex-policeman, and Paul Jones, car
penter who is working for Tom Hol-
land. Trouble has been brewing be-
tween the parties for some time and
not long since Jones had Fernandez
arrested and he was tried in Justice
Bridge court for using abusive
language and Joe was fined. Teis
morning early Joe came up to the
police court and gave hun self up on
The charge of fighting. To HERALD
reporter Joe told the following as to
the atfray:
Il have been sick in bed for Ion g
time and have not eaten anything for
fOrty-eight hours. Last night Paul
Jones, who has caused me great deal
of trouble, came to my house and abus-
ed me and dared me to come outside
and fight him. 1 was then too sick TO
take up the challenge. This morning
1 was in front of Mr.. Shay's house
when Paul Jones drove up on a wagon
and called me. l went to him and he
had club in his hand. He began
abusing me and as soon as he got down
off the wagon we clinched and began
fighting. l WAS pounding him b nd
with my fists while he was scratching
my face off. After awhile 1 saw he
was trying to pull pistol from the
waist banu of his pants. | grabbed the
gun and we were scuf1l Ing for its pos
s sion when he got hold of a brick
and hit me three times over the head
cutting a cash three inches long. My
boy ran up then with a shot gun and
TIN eatened to shoot Paul if be did not
give up the pistol. Paul's wife then
took the pistol way from him and the
fig bit ended"
Joe would make no charges against
Paul in the city court and said he did
not care whether he WAS arrested or
not. A warrant, however, was issued
for Paul, and he will be brought be-
fore court at o'clock on a charge of
carrying a pistol and probably for
fighting also.
Fernandez has cut on the top of his
head fully three inches long which had
to be stitched up by doctor. His face
was also scratched in many places.

THE TIN PLATE FIENDS

Such of our fellow citizens as are en-
should not forget that the tin plate fac
tories are asking and they will get the
present duty doubled. They are not
only asking that, but they demand that
the present provision for a rebate of
per cent on tin sent to this country to
pack goods in for foreign consumption
be repealed.
1t is not generally known to outsiders,
but under the Wilson tariff act foreign
tin that is imported to make cans in
which to export oil, meats, ETC., is al
lowed a rebate of per cent of the duty
England and several other large buy
ers of our packing house products in
formed our packers that in order to hold
their trade, all goods canned for the
army more especially must be packed in
Welsh tin, and at the request of the
packers a rebate of 9 per cent Of the duty
was made on all imported tin that was
sent back to Europe in the shape Of cans
packed with American goods. At that
time the packers insisted that they could
not pay the Wilson duty on tin because
the prices they got in Europe would not
permit that additional expense, and so
they were allowed the rebate. The rea-
son why the countries of Europe de-
manded that Welsh tin be used was be-
cause our tin makers might try to
cheaper production by using thinly
tinned black plate. and thus impregnate
the goods with poison.
Just what the Gamers of goods will do,
especially Gamers Of meats. when the
rebate Is not only taken off but the duty
increased 1-5 cents a pound, remains
to be seen, but If they told the truth
when they were before the Wilson tariff
committee, they will have to go out of
business when the Dingley schedules
become operative. In this connection,
the following from the Iron Age, an uI-
ira high protection journal, makes in
IeTeSllIfS TedOIHS. American TN plates
now virtually monopolize the American
market except on the Pacific coast, and
are selling on the Atlantic seaboard at
from 25 to 40 cents per box below the
price at which Welsh plates can be laid
down here. ImlDrtations are now con-
fined, with hardly an exception. to lots
designed for use by the exporting oil
and canned goods interests, which still
enjoy a rebate of per cent of the duty
on all such foreign material shipped
abroad"

CARBONATED PATRIOTISM

Governor Altgeld never voiced hap
pier expression than this: I'VE are de-
veloping kind Of carbonated patriot
ism which seems to derive it's most
sparkling qualities from respectable
boodleism." The governor realizes the
fact that under false pretense of 10y
atty to constituted authority, plutocracy
buys Justice" crushes liberty and de-
stroys manhood among the masses. The
real anarchists, he declares, are the GRIM
inal rich and their hangers-on. They vi
olate law with impunity and suborn law
makers by bribe giving. Will any one
deny this assertion? Is boodleism in a
Legislative body possible without two
parties to the contract? Behind every
bribe is there not lurking in the back
ground, perhaps with a prayer book in
one hand and usury in the other, a So
called respectable citizen? Has munich
pal rottenness ever yet been exposed
without besmirching the garments of a
churchnlan, or at least a self-rghteous
pharisee? And as between the two
classes, the briber and the bribe taker,
which is the worst enemy of society
which the greater criminal? There is
no excuse for either, but on the one
hand is opulence tempting avarice.
Both are rogues and both should be pun
ished. No government, as Mr.. Altgeid
says, was ever overthrown by the poor
The state has nothing to fear from that
source. 1t is the criminal rich and their
hangers-on that menace the system of
government founded by our fathers. 1t
is not to be expected that the executive
warning will be needed by the kid -gloved
gentry to whom it is directed. They are,
as rule, thick skinned and do not see
beyond today. They are of the class
that foster a revolutionary spirit with
out knowing it, Now and then, through
the centuries, it becomes necessary to
hang few of them to restore the equi-
librium.-Chicago Dispatch.
