New Money Orders.

A new style OF post-office money or
der went into effect on the lst of
September in the United States, and
will be great Improvement upon the
present style of order. The one now
in use has never given satisfaction
either in the department or to the pat
rons but in the new order great step
in advance has been taken. The new
order is made out in shape similar to a
bank check and duplicate, which is to
be used as the letter Of advice, is made
at the same time by the carbon pro-
cess.
The receipt is on the stub. By this
System Of making out order and ad-
vice at the same time, mistakes are
avoided and the form of the new or
der also makes Identification and pay
ment a more simple matter.
This order is to be adopted on the
first of the month, but will only be
put into use in the different offices
when the present suppy of money ord
ers is exhausted.

Paul Morton is authority for the
statement that the Santa Fe road has
shipped more pianos and organs over
its lines into western territory in the
last three months than have been ship
ped over that line since 1893. When
the farmers of Kansas and Nebraska
are buying pianos there is something
good the matter with these states. An
Illinois firm has shipped 1000 buggies
and wagons to the state Of Nebraska
alone the last six months. Today the
Erie road starts a daylight special
placarded train for Binghamton, N. Y,
the distributing point for 16 carloads
of pianos and organs manufactured in
Chicago. This is only part of the
indications of good times at hand. 1t
is an example of the best news of the
railways that there is today, and 1t is
just such things as this that are max
ing railroad men feel good

RECITAL.
Mrs. Rossiter Held One in the COngrega-
tional Church Last Wednesday Even
ing.

Last Wednesday evening a musical
recital and reading was given in the
Congregational church by Mrs. Rossit-
er, the well-known music teacher, as
sisted by Misses Frances Kelly and
Eda Keller, of 0berlin. The church
was nearly filled by an appreciative
and enthusiastic audience and repre-
sented some Of Wellington's best tai
ent. The recital was largely expert
ment on the part of Mrs. Rossiter as
she is very anxious to start a musical
club in town and desired to get an
expression from the people in regard
to it.
She read an interesting paper on
''The Popular Ignorance of Music" in
clear style. Among other things she
said: 1T has been truthfully said of
all the arts, music is practiced the
most, and thought of the least. Why
this should be the case may perhaps be
explained on more grounds than one.
Music is enshrouded with a sweet
mystery, a subtle and elusive influence
which plays upon our sensuos nature,
making US willing to subject our men
tai faculties in order that we may en-
| Joy through the senses. Then, too, so
| much Of our time and energy is taken
up in acquiring the mechanical or
technical part that we consciously find
ourselves playing without thought. To
enjoy music for the sensuous pleasure
alone brings US too near the plane of
the lower creatures. Music has a
higher mission for us than merely to
please the senses. Its influence is to
be both elevating and purifying. 1t
promotes and enlarges the better parts
of our natures. 1t is impossible to en-
tertain ignoble thoughts while listing
to music; that is, free music, or that
which is not associated with poetry,
One never hears of crime being per-
petrated under the stimulus Of music
Music is in one manifestation or an
other, the most popular Of arts, and is
the one above all others that contrib
utes most lavishly to our happiness,
the one that we need more than any
other"
The selections played by Miss Kelly
we're greatly enjoyed. She played
"Toccatina" by Mason, "The SPRING
by Dubois and "Campanella Etude" by
Liszt. Miss Kelly is a remarkable
performer, playing with the greatest
skill and ease ever seen in SO young an
artist. She graduates from the Ober.
lin conservatory of music next year
and will have the honor to be the
youngest person that has ever com.
pleted the course in that institution
Miss Kelly will always have warm ad.
mirrrs in musical circles here.
Miss Keller rendered several vocal
selections in a clear manner. She
possesses clear and rich contraltC
voice and sang in very finished style
She sang "Tell Me Beautiful Maiden
by Gounod and Goodbye" by Tosti
Both young ladies were repeatedly
called back, but each responded with
only an encore after their last selec
tions. The recital was decidedly
success and Mrs. Rossiter should b,
given every encouragement in her un
dertaking. A musical club would ado
greatly to the seasons entertainment

The postal savings banks Of Sweden
for the first time in their history have
just had to weather a panic, Money
is very dear at present and the private
banks willingly pay per cent on saw
ings deposits, while the postal banks
allow only about 3 per cent The con-
sequence has been a steady drain OF
money from the government institution
IN favor Of private banks.

TARIFF TO BLAME.
NOT FOR TRUSTS. BUT FOR THIS
CouNTRY'5 PROSPERITY.

The Worst Enemies the Democrats Have
Are the Facts Of History, Which Dis
prove Their Prophetic Theories Re-
garding the Tariff.
Like drowning man clutching at a
Itraw, Democrats have sought comfort
In the statement Of Sugar King Have
meyer that "the tariff is the mother of
trusts" but it takes larger straw
than that to save them from the obliv-
ion to which the voters cast them in
1895.
A few facts about Havemeyer are Of
interest in this connection. Have
meyer is a free trade Democrat, and
bitterly opposed to the tariff, except
when 1t is made in his favor, as was
the Wilson free trade bill, which near
ly ruined the country but put money
in the pockets of the sugar trust He
is opposed to the present protective
tariff law because 1t is building un the
beet sugar industry in this country in
competition with the trust. That is
the real milk in the Havemeyer cocoa
nut.
The absurdity of taking Havemey-
er's statement seriously Is apparent
from the fact that the three greatest
trusts in the world have not cent of
tariff to protect them, viz: the sugar
trust, the Standard Oil company and
the rubber trust.
There is no tariff on gas, protecting
the gas trusts; there is none on the
electric light, heat and power con-
Germs, yet there are % trusts Of this
nature. In Montana and Colorado,
where coal is scarce, coal trusts are
formed. There are trusts in COM
pressed air, ice, manufacturers Of ar
ticles patented in this country, none
of which can be affected in the least
degree by the tariff.
But 1t is true that the tariff is the
mother of prosperity. 1t was said by
the Democrats in 1895, that protection
would build a Chinese wall around this
country keeping out the products OF
foreign countries and keeping our own
in at the same time.
But facts play havoc with Demo
cratic theories. In 1895 our exports
were $SO7 900 900; in 1896, $685., 900, 900;
; in 1897, 31OOO,0OO, and when the
full returns for 1899 are in, a still
larger increase will undoubtedly be
found. The Dingley tariff contributed
to bring an increase of $424,000,0O tc
the pockets Of the American people
over the income from exports in 1895
Democrats said that there was nc
use in putting a protective tariff or
silk because silk factories could moi
be operated successfully in the United
States. But facts are again their worst
enemy. Last year we had So silk fac
tories in operation, with a total ol
500 1903 spindles, LILY hand looms
9,23S power looms and 3,401 machines
and the average number of weeks in
operation was 81.
Years ago the Democrats said We
could not make steel rails, pottery, tir
and many other articles, but that they
must come from abroad. Today We
are making all these articles and the
price is far lower than before the!
were protected. Under the Wilson FREE
trade tariff in 1895 and 1896 our wage
earners were out of work and ou
mills idle. Now all that is changed
and Dingley tariff is responsible fo
a large part of it.
The tariff is not the mother of trusts
but iS always has proved to be th
mother Of prosperity.

The American Economist one of the
keenest, most original and most schol
arly financial publication in the world,
publishes several interviews with Gin
cinnati business men showing that all
branches of trade are prosperous. 1t
expresses the sentiment of business
men all over the country in the fol-
lowing pleaant way:
The state Of Ohio deserves to be pros
porous. The rest Of the country owes to
Ohio the debt OF having given to the coun-
try the man who for years has been rec
ognlzed as the great exponent Of the sys-
ten Of protection, through which the great
prosperity OF the present which is being
enjoyed by Ohio and by all the other states
In the Union has been secured. We owe
the country's prosperity to McKlnleylsm,
and we owe Mckinley to Ohio. Therefore
we wish all prosperity to Ohio; and our
wishes are all the more cordial because Of
the fact that Ohio has not monopoly on
prosperity, but that all the country has a
share In 1t.
