The quiet home wedding which united
MRS. LILLIAN c. MADISON and DR.. A.
]. KRIEL Tuesday morning Jan. ~, at
the residence Of the bride in Macon.
Rev. Mr.. johnson officiating, was
quite . surprise to the many friends of
both the bride and groom. Only a few
intimate friends Of the couple were
aware that they had ideas that were
identical, one of which was that the
term single blessedness' is q mislead.
ing. altogether false phrase, that the
conditions therein should not be toler.
ated, and that they were soon to brush
tho cobwebs from the wedding bells and
give them q occasion to ring forth mer.
rily and happily. Everyone who was
aware Of the approaching nuptials
swore every one else who was let into
tho secret, and how well it was kept
was attested by the surprise the new
created when it became known Tuesday
morning.
The wedding being aquiet home affair,
no cards were issued for the ceremony,
simply verbal invitations to be present,
yet the room was crowded with the in.
innate friends and relatives of the
couple. After the Ger emory DR.. and
Mrs. Kriel left on the north bound NJ.

school at that place. They will also
visit st. Louis and other northern cities
and will be gone about two weeks.

possible for this happy couple is that

THE TARIFF ON CUTLERY.
Why the Trust Can Dictate such Out
Sageously High Duties.

why the Trust Can Dictate Such Out
Sageously High Duties.
One of THO worst schedules in tho
Dingley bill is that relating to cutlery
especially pocket cutlery Tho duties
ON pocketknives range from 100 per
cent to 300 per cent above present du-
ties and are nearly double those in the
Mckinley bill. Why, you will ask, arc
these duties SO extraordinarily high2
And why are they allowed to remain
therep Both questions are easily an
swered.
1t Is unnecessary here to go into do
tnils. Before McKinley's nomination
one Of the five or six largo manufacture
ers of pocket cutlery, who was prom
iDent in the trust, which raised prices
an average of about 30 per cent under
the Mckinley bill, began to hustle for
Mckinley. He is said to have raised
large sum of money by passing the hat
among the 20 or 20 cutlery manufaotur-
ers. just how the money was spent is
not known. 1t ia probable, however,
That several Mckinley delegates to st,
Louis owed their presence there to this
fund. The hat passer himself was one
of tho very few delegates from New
York who was for Mckinley first, last
and all the time. He was ono of Han
mas most trusted licutenants. Ono of
tho two favors which he is said to have
asked as compensation for his valuable
services was the fixing of the cutlery |
schedule. This privilege, being an ordi-
nary and expected one under the proteo-
tion system, was readily granted by the
power behind tho throne. This is prob
ably tho whole story. 1t explains fully
why the duties arc there and why they
will stay there.
Below is given in detail some OF the
effects Of tho proposed duties ms applied
to importations for tho last fiscal year.
