that Mr.. Whitney got through the Mas

him, under certain restrictions, the right
to pipe the whole State of Massachusetts,

Canadian coal trust, if the Senate amend

mission into the Taste markets, if, indeed,
it does not invade the markets of New York
and other States. This means the paralysis
of an extensive railroad industry, and the
impoverishment of mining towns and
villages in the United States.
What it means to Canada we will let
them tell for themselves. The Journal and
Pictou News says: ut means work fol
thousands of people, and, large revenue
for the provincial treasury;in short, it mean;

would call the attention of my fellow
Republicans throughout the United States
to the fact that that distinguished Populist
William J. Bryan, who has crucilied the
old Democratic Party of Jefferson upon
silver cross, is now pressing the crown o.
thorns into the brow of the American
miner, through his unpatriotic free Goa
theory, and that, if they do not relieve
their countrymen who are working in the
mines from this cruel torture, they will bt
hurled from power by the American people
at their next opportunity, as they will rich

WE will call the attention of our readers
to letter, published in another column,
from Col. William Lamb, which was ad-
dressed "to the friends of the American
laborer and miner in the Congress of the
United States" Col. Lamb is well posted
on the coal interests of our country and in
his letter presents unanswerable arguments
in favor of full protection TO that impor-
tant industry. The letter, no doubt, had
much to do in causing the change which
the Senate has made in the coal schedule
as fixed by the tariff bill now before that
body. 1t is great pity the Senate changed
the rate fixed by the Dingeley bill.

were horses of all description kinds

The Heavy Rains.

The continued heavy rains IN
this section have eau sed all the
creeks to become raging torrents.
For instance between here and
Dunlap there were three creeks last
Friday which could not be crossed
even on horseback and the river
was over the road in several places
in the direction Of Looneys creek.
Conducted Rankin reported that
the water was getting very near the
rallroad at KinbaIl Friday an d
was still rising when his train
went through that day.
We have not experienced any
trouble with water locally as Whit
well is well out of the way Of any
high water but other towns have
suffered some judging from reports
However, these little experiences
are nothing compared to what tn
people of the Ohio Valley have un'
dergone during the last two weeks
Monday aud Tuesday trail
service was discontinued and n
mails were received at this plac
owing to the water being up owe

was a competitive examination and
two cOlOred lads, one of them Bundy,
Outstripped their caucasian competi-
tors. One of them, however, proved to
be over 20 and was therefore debarred.

EMPLOYEES WAGES CUT.
Auditorium Hotel at Chicago Also
"Feels the Wave"

Chicago, April 15.-Hundreds of the
employees of the Auditorium and Annex
are about to go on strike.
This condition of affairs has been
brought about by a 10 per cent reduc-
ton in wages. The first to be informed
of the cut were the electrician ms, mac chin
lists and engineers. The cooks were then
notified and today they returned word
to Preston & Southgate that they would
cook no more in their tavern if the cut
was put in force.
The walters also declared that S25 a
month is not any too much money for
a hale and hearty man to receive, out
of which he must pay his room rent
and purchase from $50 to 800 worth of
uniforms per year, in order to present
an appearance equal to the dignity of
the establishment.
Several of the employees were airing
themselves today in the alley back of
the hotel and also airing their griev-
ances to each other. One of them gave
the following reasons for the reduction
of wages:
THE Republican national committee
had its headquarters IN The hotel dur
ing the campaign last fall. Somehow
or other everyone of us got the idea
that as soon as Bryan was defeated our
ges would jump up to what they
were before the panic commenced. In
fact, we thought that all the talk about
confidence was genuine, and that there
would be no more hungry men or starry
ing women and children if the Republi-
can party would elect their candi-
dates
why, we all thought that those who
advocated the election of Bryan were
fanatics, and did not know what they
were talking about. Well, Bryan was
defeated, and since that time we have
had hard time of it. This 10 per cent
cut is one of the many evidences of
prosperity that have struck Chicago,
and now you cannot find a man in the
hotel among those who had their wages
cut who does not believe he was crazy
last fall instead of the other fellow

TOM CARDER'S CAREER.
Seems to be Punctuated With Trou-
bIes More or Less as Usual.

The troubles of Lawyer Tom Carder
were we'll known to all attorneys when
he lived in Topeka. 1t seems that his
life in Kansas City is quite as exciting.
Not long ago he was tried because it
was claimed he had no license to prac-
tice law. The following from Kansas
City paper indicates that he is still
keeping before the public:
T. M. Carder, a Kansas City, Kan,
attorney, became slightly mixed in his
dates yesterday and brought garnish-
ment proceedings which caused Messrs.
Hudson and Judah of the Grand Opera
House cOnSidera bic trouble.
"Carder has a client named E. o.
Stewart, who claims that the sum of
$3.50 is due him from the National
Amusement company, which operates
the Gillis theater. He discovered that
the Kansas City Amusement company
which operates the Grand Opera House
had an account at the Midland Nation
al bank, and brought garnishment pro-
ceedings in Justice Krueger's court to
recover the money. He discovered his
mistake after Messrs. Hudson and Ju-
dab had given him pieces of their re-
spective minds, and the garnishment
was released -

KNEIPP SANITARIUMS.

New York, April 15-According to the
plans laid out by the Kneipp Cure COM
pany. a 500, 900 sanitarium, the first of
a large number to be built in this coun-
try, will be erected near Babylon, L. L,
at West Deer Park, to be opened as a
health and summer resort this year, If
possible by July 1.
The pure Kneipp cure will be taught
in all it's branches, and President Hen
ry F. Charles predicts the rapid spread
of the popularity of the cure in this
county 1t is intended to erect a san
itarium in every state, and negotiations
are now pending looking to the building
of institutions at Boston and in Ashe-
vile, n. C
There are" says Mr. Charles at
present 500 of the Institutions in Ger
many, 800 in France and about 200 in
England, and we believe that a large
number will be found necessary in this
country before long, People have gain
ed the impression that padding about
in the wet grass was about all that the
cure amounted to. That is a mistake
In addition to the water cure there is
the herbal treatment, the Kneipp diet
and the use OF Kneipp health under
wear.
There is now about 20 small Kneipp
institutions in this country, and the
most complete is the one at MilWau-
kee. We shall incorporate in each
State.'
