The senator has just as decided ideas
on the tariff question. He is firmly con-

those on coal. should go up. Tariff up.

BUTTONS FOR MANUFACTURING
I'VE 3 L LIZ PHI.


These buttons are not made here, nor
are they likely to be made. First, be-
cause little or none of the raw material
required has been found here; second,
because the total sales being limited to
this country would not warrant the
investment Of the necessary capital in a
plant needed to make the various styles
wanted. 1t is evident that the intention
is to exclude these goods in the interest
of some higher-cost goods. The pro-
posed duty would be a real hardship and
bear heavily on the class of people who
buy china buttons" as well as on the
manufacturers of cheap shirts, under
wear, etc.
Bone Buttons Ito sew on)-Present
duty, 35 per cent; Mckinley bill, so

sold to manufacturers of cheap under

How Capitalists Save Themselves

The wooden manufacturers continue
to stock up with cheap raw material in
anticipation of the coming tariff legis-
lation, the transactions in the Boston
market last week amounting to nearly
10000 Joe pounds of foreign wool and
over 1,25o.00o pounds of domestic. They
expect to reap rich profits when they
can make this wool into cloth to be sold
Mt the advanced prices which are now
in sight. 1t is one more illustration of
the fact that the capitalists can over
come many Of the evils Of any kind Of
tariff. 1t is the who must
bear the burden Of the suffering

An Injustice to the Poorer and Mid.
die Claaaen.


The button manufacturers, present
and prospective, are unusually greedy
in their demands for tariff duties. Nc.
Kinley duties are entirely too slow for
the button infants. The following is
part of a statement madetby button inn
p%orters:
The proposed duties on buttons, as
per schedule of the finance committee
Of the senate, are as a rule prohibitory
and would prove a severe hardship on
goods used by the poorer and middle
classes, and also manufacturers of
various garments used by the mass of
our people, such as low-priced shirts,
underwear, clothing, etc. The follow
ing data will give some idea of the in
equalities OF the proposed duties:
Agate Buttons-Present duty, also
Mckinley bill, 25 per cent; proposed
duty OF one-twelfth of Il cent per
line per gross, plus IS per cent. ad va
loren, would average from CT to 161 per
cent, bearing heaviest on the class Of
goods that make up the great bulk of
the importations. The following sched-
ule, taking the. styles that sell, shows
the range proposed:

A SAMPLE TRADE.

epub11cans Swapping Free Hides
for Dutiable Sugar.
1.-THE senate tariff bill as a whole"
says ex-Congressman John De Witt
Warner, lis a notice to eastern manu.
facturers of what they may hereafter
expect. Hitherto they have considered
protection as a sort of providential ar
rangement by which they were enabled
to feed on the rest of the country. Now,
like Polonius in Hamlet they are in
vited by "a certain convocation of polite
worms to a supper not where they eat,
but where they are eaten The manu-
lecturers of New England, New York
and Pennsylvania are to take their turn
at being mulcted for the benefit of 9TH
ers, who now control legislation. This
applies especially to the hide schedule"
Cannot the New England senator's
secure favorable changes in that sched-
ule?"
II think not. The bill as it stands is
satisfactory to the sugar trust, and
probably cannot be kept so except by
the votes controlled by the cattle trust
of the west. Were the New England SEN
ators willing to risk offending the sugar
trust, they could doubtless defeat the
duty or hides, but the fact is that Bos-
ton and Providence, in proportion 10
their size, are far more thoroughly sat-
urated with sugar trust influence than
is any other part Of the country, and,
however much Senators Aldrich, Wet
more, Hoar and Lodge may bewail the
fate of their boot and shoe manu-
facturers, there is no prospect whatever
that they will sacrifice the sugar trust
Interests to help them.'

WHEELING PLAYERS HOME.
Returning from Cities in the Western ant
Southern Leagues.

The season has closed in most of the
minor base ball leagues in the country,
and will close in the Interstate this
week. All the Wheeling players are
returning. Among the first to arrive
were Jack Glasscock and Billy George,
both Of whom have been playing gilt
edged ball for st. Paul. Sammy"
Nichol and Mike Hobrecht are also
home. "Parson" Nicholson has re-
turned from Kansas City. His arm
was in good shape and he put up
fine article at second. His days of USE
fulness are not over yet. Gus Nc
Ginnis, well known Southern League
pitcher was in the city for a short
time yesterday on his way to his home
in GAINESVILLE.
Jack Glasscock finished the season
with a batting average of about $50,
which is not as good as his first years
record in the Western Association, but
strong enough to indicate his value to
any team. His arm is in as good shape
as when he was the crack shortstop of
the National League, and one Western
League manager stated that he would
like to sign him to play third. Jack
says he would "eat 'em up" in the in
field as he used to do. Jack will spend
the winter at home, and it is probable
that an exhibition game with Pittsburg
will be arranged after the close of the
season.

thoughts are always with his books.
One evening his wife. who had been
out for some hours, returned to find the
house remarkably quiet She had left
the children playing about, but now
they were nowhere to be seen.
She demanded to be told what had be-
come of them, and the professor explain
ed that as they had made a good deal of
noise he had put them to bed without
waiting for her or calling a maid.
Il hope they gave you no trouble,
she said.

exception of the one in the cot here.

N UNICIPAL DEBT.
City Of Peoria Gets Valuable InfOrma-
tion From Outside Sources - The
Statement by City Receiver Forgey
Was an Eye-Opensr.

1t appears that the statement of City
Receiver Forgey, showing comparative
debts and rates of taxation in cities OF
the United States, has opened the eyes
of the people of Peoria. H., where
lower taxes" was the cry of one of
the political parties in the last election.
Mr.. Forgey received copy Of a pa
pep published in that city, calling at
tention to the fact that the informa-
ton was cleaned from outside sources,
and congratulating the community that
the city stood lowest in Mr.. Forgey's
list in pro rata municipal debt.
City Clerk Robert M. Orr, Of Peoria,
wrote a letter to Mr.. Forgey thanking
him for the information, and inciden-
tally mentioning the fact that he was
born in Wellsburg, and spent his boy
hood days in Wheeling. He also called
attention to an incident of the early
fifties. He was at the suspension
bridge a few minutes before il was
blown down, and he was one OF the
"bad" boys who assisted in throwing
eggs and stones at the steamer Penn
sylvania.
The Pennsylvania incident created
considerable excitement at the time.
When it was decided to erect the
bridge there was great opposition from
the river men Of Pittsburg, and per-
mission was only secured after a hard
fight, river men maintaining that it
would menace navigation. When the
steamer Pennsylvania came around the
curve at the upper end of the city, ner
stacks were lowered. This was regard
ed by a big crowd on the public land
ing as mark of derision, and they re-
sented what they regarded as an effort
to make light of their misfortune.
Men and boys assailed the side of the
steamer which was exposed, with eggs
stones and other missiles, doing con-
siderable damage The captain of the
boat explained that he lowered his
stacks because of a wire which was
suspended from the wreck of the
bridge.

1t became a bore to the clerk, who at

to the stranger:

properly while you are fooling with that
blasted machine? I'm getting tired of it.
Why don't you put it where 1t won't

the stranger flushing. Il will have it
removed at once"
A porter took it away within an hour.
a few days later the clerk was sent for
by Mr.. Flagier, whom he found in earn
est conversation with the small. black
mustached man. The latter smiled at
seeing him. gave Flagler some instruc-
lions and left the room
