Heavy Duties on Linens.
The following are some of the COM
ments of man we'll acquainted with
linens and the linen industry upon the
senate doctored Dingley bill:
The proposed duties ON linen goods
under the amended Dinlgey bill are
heavier than ever, although it has been
claimed that the senate had reduced
rates. These goods paid for many years
35 per cent and yielded steady reve-
nue. to the government. The rates now
proposed vary from 90 to 100 per cent
and the burden falls heaviest on low
and medium goods, which are chiefly
used in the homes of the poorer people.
A cheap tablecloth now selling at re-
tail at % cents per yard will have to be
sold at 3715 cents to 40 cents if the
quality be kept up.
Medium linen for children 8 summer
blouses will be assessed 991a per cent,
and the retail price will have to go up
accordingly.
Linen forms the raw material for
many American industries, as Innings
for clothing and other purposes where
strength and durability are required.
Such goods will be advanced 90 to so
per cent.
1t is claimed that this advance is nee
essary for revenue, but the effect will be
that the people will in many cases substi-
tute something cheaper, and thus be de
prived of this useful fabric, and the reve-
nue. will be CORRESPONDENCE diminished.
1t is said that linen goods can be made
here, but this has been tried again and
again, and except in the case of a few
low crashes has been failure, owing to
the climate and other difficulties, but
even if they could be made here the
rates are unnecessarily oppressive. The
entire cost of weaving linen goods III
Europe is about ~ to 10 per cent the
selling price Of the article here, and in
America the cost should not be at the
very outside more than double this per-
centage, SO that, even if Republican
theories be true, protection of 80 per
cent should be ample to allow for high
er wages and extra profits for our man
ufacturers.
1t is possible spectators may start
mills on the strength of these excessive
rates, sell the stock, and then step out,
leaving the unfortunate laborer and
manufacturer to face the difficulties of
the situation as best they can. The la
borer probably, having been brought
here from Europe (for labor is on the
free Hst), with unreasonable expecta-
tions, will be left to join the army of
disappointment and discomfort. Why
should these exorbitantly high rates be
assessed OH an article more or less in
use in every household in the land, and
the cost OF living so much increased III
these days of keen competition aud
small profits? Why should the plain peo-
pie be taxed to put more money in the
pockets Of the rich? If the wealthy
manufacturers want to make expert
ments, let them do so at their own cost,
not tax the poor for that purpose.

HAWAIIAN REPLY


To Japan's Latest Letter About Ready to
BE Sent-Tone Is More Pacific.
Honolulu, October 20, via. San Fran
cisco, October 27.-The Hawaiian Gov
ernment's reply to Japan's latest letter
will soon be forwarded and another
step taken in the diplomatic contro-
versy. The President and his cabinet
are busy at work on the last letter from
the japanese Government. The tone
of the document is much more pacific
than any of the previous communica-
tons. This government will have some
amendments to make to the latest pro-
posal.
The japanese Government is still
very vague as to the amount of dam
ages it will claim and it still seems
that the main point was the establish
ment of precedent rather than COM
pensation for the supposed injury in
flicted upon its subjects. 1t seems now
that the controversy will go to arbi-
tration within a few weeks.
The China, sailing sGr Yokohama
ON the Doth inst, will carry the reply
of thee Hawaiian Government, and by
Christmas the whole imbroglio may be
in the hands Of arbitrators, providing
there is not too much correspondence
between the two countries to deter
mine who the arbitrator shall be.

Those who have seen it recognize 1t as
a good thing" and pass the word
along. 1t is one of the most gorgeous
productions that has been presented
to the public in this age. The manage
ment has been to great trouble, ex-
pense and thought to secure the un-
equalled company, the scenic and me-
chanical effects, the new music, which
has been expressly written for it, and
the perfecting of everything into one
complete harmonious whole. Vanity
Fair" will begin an engagement Of
three night, with usual matinee, at
the Grand Opera House this evening.
An attraction of unusual merit has
been booked for the first half of next
week at the Grand Opera House. 1t
is Go-won-go Mohawk, the famous In
dian actor, in a play written by him
self, entitled, Wep-ton-no-mah, the
Indian Mail Carrier" She received
many fiattering notices during her re-
cent tour of England The following
is from the Sussex Daily News: Miss
Go-wongo Mohawk's acting keeps UP
to its old level, even improves, per-
haps, on further acquaintance. She
has written fine part for herself, and
being in very literal sense to the
manner born in having spent her girl
hood among such scenes as are here
described she plays it as probably no
other living actress could. The play
is the creation of an Indian woman
Miss Mohawk herself), and it is not
too much to say that only an Indian
woman could adequately represent this,
it's chief character Last nights audi
ence hardly knew how to express their
appreciation of the many fine pieces of
acting"

AGAINST MOB Law.
Governor Atkinson, Of Georgia, Con-
demns Lynching---Peo Urged to
Set a High Example.

Atlanta. Ga. October 27.-Mob law
was severely condemned by Governor
Atkinson in his message to the Georgia
Legislature, which convened here to-
day.
He advocated stringent legislation
against mobs and insists that the Leg
islature pass a law laying every coun-
ty wherein such crime is committed
subject to large indemnity to the rel
atives of the mob's victim.
The northern lynchers are spoken of
by the Governor. On this subject he
says:
1T is no excuse to say that the
northern people. who have less to pro-
woke them to it, lynch. Let us not
take them as a standard; but rather
show higher type of civilization in
our State and erect here a standard to
which they may aspire
The Governor is in favor of armine
the prisoners and allowing them TO pro-
tect themselves from mobs.

THREE THOUSAND MEET.
Mrs. Edwards and Her Present and
Former Consorts Have Reunion.

WAYNE, Neb., October 22.-Mrs. Fred
Edwards and her three husbands
gathered here this week for a little
family reunion.
Mrs. Edwards was originally resi-
dent of New York and married Geo.
NJ Luther and went to New Orleans
to live. A few months later he Sc
cured divorce, married William d.
Hoffman and moved to Chicago. Suit
for divorce was commenced and a de-
cree soon afterward granted. Mrs.
Hoffman went to San Francisco and
opened millinery establishment.
During her stay on the Pacific coast
she met and married her present hus-
band, Fred Edwards. The couple now
live at Ogden, Utah.
This week groom No. visited
Wayne. He brought his wife with
him. To their surprise almost the
first man they met was Luther, now
employed as travelling salesman.
From him they learned that Hoffman
was "ranching it, near town. No
time was lost in paying him a visit.
No. 2 expressed much satisfaction at
the meeting and the next day took the
party out driving with him. He and
Luther occupied the front seat. while
Mr.. and Mrs. Edwards sat behind
them. In the evening they dined to-
gether at Hoffman's bachelor quarters.
All seemed greatly to enjoy them
selves and finally parted with appar-
emily sincere regret that business
should have compelled so early Eep-
aration.

STATEMENT CONFIRMED,

Washington, October 27-Attorney
General McKenna to-day fully con-
firmed the statements heretofore made
by the Associated Press as to the re-
cent offer of the reorganization COM
mittee and it's acceptance by the gov
eminent, by which the full amount of
the governments claim against the
main line of the Union Pacific road,
principal and interest, is guaranteed.
This amount is something in excess Of
S58, 000,0 900 and incluces outstanding
government bonds issued in aid OF the
road to the amount of S19,0T6,512. OF
this sum- SIS, 1915, SIP comes due on jan
uary l, 1898, and S3,157 900 on January
l, 1899. Whether or not the reorganiz-
alton committees original increase bid
of $4,000, 900 holds good, to a proper
tionate share, as to the Kansas Pacific
road is an open question. The master
in chancery fixed this amount at ap-
proximately $5,000,000, and the con-
tention undoubtedly will be that the
guarantee offer as to this amount holds
good.

1t II Foolish to Neglect ANY Form OF Piles
Cure Them at the Beginning.
Piles are simple in the beginning
and easily cured. They can be cured
even in the worst stages, without pain
or loss of blood, quickly, surely and
completely. There is only one remedy
that will do it-Pyramid Pile Cure.
1t allays the Inflammation immedi-
ately, heals the irritated surface and
with continued treatment reduces the
swelling and puts the membranes into
good, sound, healthy condition. The
cure is thorough and permanent.
Here are some voluntary and unSo-
licited testimonials we have lately re-
ceived:
Mrs. M. c. Hinkly, 601 Mississippi
ST., Indianapolis, Ind, says: Have
been sufferer from the pain and an
noyance of Piles for fifteen years; the
Pyramid Pile Cure and Pyramid Pills
gave me immediate relief and in a
short time complete cure.
Major Dean, of Columbus, o., says:
| wish to add to the number of certifi-
Gates as to the benefits derived from
the Pyramid Pile Cure l suffered
from piles for forty years and from
itching piles for twenty years. and two
boxes of the Pyramid Pile Cure have
effectually cured me-

Cure or will get it for you if you ask
