ton added is a gratuity to the mine
owners Senator Jones of Arkan-
sas thus expressed himself on this
subject: The coal miners would
be justified in asking and expecting
higher wages after the rev tariff
goes into effect, if the republicans
were sincere in their arguments in
support Of fhigher tariff taxes, The
burden of their speeches on the coal
duties, and on every schedule in the
bill, was that higher rates were nee
essary to protect American labor
from the competitor of cheap foreign
labor, and to enable American EN-
ployers'to pay higher wages, but
every one knows that is not what
the tariff was increased for. 1t was
to give the coal mine owners and
other employers of labor large prof
its. Notwithstanding the increase
in the duty on coal from 40 to 81
cents ton, the miners will be for
tunate if their wages are not re-
duced instead OF increased. Con-
sumers will have 30 pay more for
coal, and the increase will go to the
mine owners and the railways. The
tariff was not increased for the bene-
fit OF the wage-earners, notwith-
standing the declaration Of the pro-
tectioniSts that the high duties were
for the benefit Of the American Ia
boring class

from some vessel whose hold has been
filled with their contents. No one IN
New York ever remembers anything like
it. The ships are insufficient in point OF
numbers to carry out of the harbor all
the cargoes of grain that are wanted else
where. This is the harvest time OF the
tramp steamer or sailing vessel. 1t is no
longer doubtful az to whether or no
cargo can be secured, but the question
is, which shippers will pay the highest
price?
To mention the individual places where
American wheat is going this year would
be to recapitulate the map of the world.
The wheat crop of the world is short,
and therefore the United States must
make up that shortage as best it can, and
incidentally profit immensely. 1t is de-
clared by fnanciers that in the move
ment of the wheat crop New York city
banks alone will be called upon to fur
nish $3.50, 100000. This is comparatively
but drop in the bucket. Great for
tunes have been made by the spectators
of course, but the farmer gets the best OF
it in the long run.
There are also. heavy exports OF corn
this year, but the price of corn has adj
vanced but little compared with that of
wheat. This is due partly to the fact
that the 1897 crop will be enormous, and
there is not the same demand for it in
other countries that there is for wheat.

one year, he patiently endured suffering
as good soldier of the cross. He leaves
a wife and many friends to mourn his
loss.
The deceased spent his whole life on
the old Foot homestead, which had been
in the family for four generations. Much
might be said in connection with this
historic place. The records tell Us that
Daniel Foot of Dalton, Mass, settled on
this place in Ia, when it was all

land, which he subsequently, divided
among his sons. Freeman received the

his only child, succeeded him, but leaves

History tells US that the Congregational
church of this town was organized in
September, 1870, in a small house near
the present dwelling. The first minister
was ordained and meetings were for
some time held in Daniel Foot's barn,
built on the spot where the horse. barn
now stands, and plans were laid for
building a church near the cemetery ad-
Joining this farm; but it became evident
that the business would center at the
falls, and it was decided after much con-
troversy to locate the church there, which
is the one now occupied by that society,
built nearly one hundred years ago.
Each generation of the family have been
supporters of this society, Freeman A.
having been member thirty.nine years.

CONCORD WHEELS.

For years the late II. a. Ray used our
high grade Concord wheels. axles.
springs, ETC., in making the celebrated
Ray" concord wagon. Everybody
knows of the wearing qualities of these
wagons.
We are still selling Suong's Concord
wheels, aXles, springs, etc. and the
quality is maintained. Every hub of
these Concord wheels is marked "Strong"
to indicate the quality. We are at all
times looking for your trade through
your wheelwright or blacksmith for
these goods. Please ask for Strong's
Concord wheels, if they don't carry them
come to see US direct and get them at
wholesale. Some dealers will tell you
they don't carry our goods, but have
others Just as good. Don't let them put
you of in this way. They simply want
to palm of something cheaper and infer
lor at less cost and at much higher
profit than possibly they can make on
our goods. Insist on having Concord
wheels, aXles, springs etc, when in want
of goods in this line.
