The Scheme Failed.

An interesting story connected with
the Bessemer ore pool meetings re-
Gently held at Cleveland, illustrative
of the effort made by John D. Rookie
feller TO prevent the breaking up Of
the ore pool, has just leaked out. The
Norrie mine, which last year was IN
able to dispose of its allotment at the
price fixed by the pool, felt very much
aggrieyed, and determined that the
price this year should be fixed at so
low a figure that it would be impos-
sible for competitors TO underselI it.
which would enable il to dispose Of
its entire output, even though it did
not realize very large profit on it.
So it insisted that if the pool was re-
organized, the basis Of ore values
should be fixed at S2.65 a ton for
Norrie.
Mr. Rockefeller would not consent
to this, but in order TO maintain the
pool organization and establish the
price of Norrie ore at $3.50, he offered
to contract for 100000 tons, the
estimated capacity of the Norrie
mine, for the season, at $3.50. and
thus gain control of the output OF
that mine, and in that way effect the
POOLS reorganization. The offer was
refused, but had it been accepted,
Norrie ore would now be bringing
s. 30 ton on the market in CleVe-
land, and Fayal S2-65. This would
have left small margin for independ-
ent operators on the Mesaba range,
and would have insured the operation

A Pledge Redeemed.

On Saturday last, the new tariff
law promised by the republican party
was enacted. The Northerner, in
common with the people generally,
was very anxious for the passage OF
the law, and has made some criti-
cisms upon congress for its seeming
slowness. Now that the law is en-
acted, however, it is but just TO say
that no tariff bill ever became law
so soon after the election at which the
pledge for it had been made. This
is especially gratifying to the repub-
licans, because'of the fact that the
party has not a clear majority in the
senate.
1t is noteworthy fact that but
one of the "silver republicans" So
called, Jones of Nevada) voted for
the bill, and that In spite of their
loud protestations that they had no
objection to the passage of a protect
i've tariff law, believing it could not
being prosperity without the free
coinage of silver.
The dawn of a new prosperity was
already breaking in the horizon of a
vanishing night of free trade and
democracy, and the Northerner now
believes, as we have all along con-
tended, that the day is fairly be-
gun, and that the same prosperity
will now be ours, that has always fol-
lowed the enactment of protective
tariff law.
The true northerner., 1897-07-28
A Good Example.

The action of the silver Republicans
in deciding TO make the money issue
paramount sets good example to the
gold Democrats, the Baltimore News
(Dem. says: ''They must keep them
selves in readiness to support, not mere
ly by asserting vote, but by active work
and friendly counsel. any effort which
may be honestly put forward by the in
coming administration TO place the
finances of the country upon a sound
basis. They would stultify their course
in the contest of last year if they allow
ed party considerations to have so much
as feather weight in comparison with
their duty upon this issue of transcend
ent moment"
The true northerner., 1897-07-28

THE hard times which the farmers
of the country have had under the
Wilson tariff law have shown them
the Importance of reducing their in
debtedness as rapidly as possible.
Dispatches to the New York Sun
indicate that the farmers are
making prompt use of the advance
in the price of wheat, wool and
other products, and are devoting the
money thus received to the clearing
of their Indebtedness. The Suns
dispatches from all the great farming
regions of the West and Northwest
show that farmers there are reducing
their Indebtedness very rapidly, and
that the prospects are that they will
still further do so under the good
prices which they have reason to ex-
pect for their splendid crops now be-
ing harvested.
