Robert G. Inpersol1.


Col. Robert G. Ingersoll has solved the
problem concerning which he had so
much doubt.-New York Herald.
The great agnostic had many follow
ers, but it is a question whether his as
saults on religion did not promote rather
than retard it's progress.-Omaha Bee.
Whatever else he was or was not, he
was an American, a product of our soil
and racy Of it, particularly a product of
the middle West which is developing it's
own subvariety of American.-New York
Times
The evil of his teaching was it's effect
on weak and unintelligent minds. He
professed ignorance Of the hereafter, and
his ignorant hearers went a step further
and disbelieved in any hereafter.-St.
Paul Dispatch.
Ingersoll is no more, but the churches
continue to point with taper spires to
heaven. What is good in religion will
withstand the assaults of revilers; what
abuses grow up within its fold are more
likely to yield before the onslaughts Of
reformers within than of wreckers with
out.-Milwaukee Wisconsin.
The sudden blow only emphasizes the
force of that reflection of Pascal, who
said that he could not imagine any one
suffering harm by being mistaken in be-
lieving Christianity to be true, whereas
he could easily see that it would be a
fearful error to be mistaken in believing
Christianity to be false.-Cleveland
Leader.

OUR MANUFACTURERS.
HOW THE OUTSIDE WORLD IS
CALLING FOR THEM.
What the United States Has Accom-
p1ished by Adhering to the Protec-
ZIONIST Policy of Developing Do
nestle Industries.

Remembering the years during which
disinterested free-traders were urging
and often reiterating their advice that
the people of the United States conf1ne
themselves to the pursuit Of agricul-
ture, to food-raising and to the produc-
ton of raw materials, and to leave to
other and far more favored countries
the business of converting these raw
materials into manufactured commodi-
ties, it is interesting to note some of
the important consequences resulting
from the disregard Of that extraordin-
cry counsel and the consequent estab-
lishment of the policy Of protection.
From statistics CLEANED by the Treas
ury Bureau Of Statistics it appears that
manufactures are now forming more
than one-third Of our total domestic ex-
ports. During the last month they
were 1877 per cent. of the total domes-
tic exports, during the three months
ending with May they were $3.50 per
cent, and during the fiscal year just
ending they will form a larger percent
age Of our total domestic exports than
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1899-08-03
Keep Hands Off!

There has been a great deal Of fool
ish talk as to the necessity for pro-
tective tariff having passed, because in
some articles of manufacture we are
able to undersell the world, and hence
our exports Of these manufactured
goods are increasing at a magnificent
rate. This is a proof of the soundness
of the Republican doctrine that pro-
tective tariff does not interfere with
the development Of our export trade.
The free traders have always declared
that large volume Of manufactured
exports is impossible under protection.
We have, during the past two years,
proved the utter falsity Of this theory.
Don't go to Juggling with the tariff.
Let well enough alone. The people Of
this country have lost, in the aggre-
gate, many millions of dollars by the
check to enterprise which has resulted

FRENCH ARMY IS DISCIPLINED.
Gen. de Negr:cr's Removal Meant a,
a Warming to the Miiitasy.

Gen. de Negr:cr's Removal Meant az
a Warming to the Miiitasy.
The removal of Gen. de NegFier from
the French council of war is the most
important move yet taken by the new
Government in the cause Of discipline.
It may be regarded as the supreme test
of the Governments strength. The ma
tionalist papers are wild with rage over
the latest '.affront' to the army, which
they say has been beheaded. Many per-
sons even who are supporting the new
ministry think that this was a step Of
doubtful wisdom, as likely to goad the
military to desperation.
Gen. de Negrier was at no time mixed
up in the Dreyfus affair. He has distin-
guished himself for bravery and skill as
soldier and general, and was on the
road to succeed to the position Of gener-
alissimo of the forces. His disgrace Is
meant as warning to the military not
to organize conspiracies against the re-
public This was, in way, De Negrier's
offense.
The Government learned of his meth
DDS through an address made by Col.
Bertrand to his officers at Auxonne
shortly after the departure of Gen. de
NeSIleI lToH WISH Oh lAspeclioa " tAe
garrison there Col. Bertrand said:
Gentlemen, owing to the attacks upon
the army. the generals of the council of
war have determined upon the day after
the conclusion of the Dreyfus trial to
wait upon the Government and demand
that these attacks cease. If they do not,
the generals will act"
Col. Bertrand was summoned by the
war office to explain these words, aud he
said that he made the address in accord
ance with De Negrier's order. The war
council subsequently told the Govern
ment they did not share the sentiment
expressed.

AERoNAuT's DROP TO DEATH.
One Killed at Streator and Another
browns at Hi11sdaIe,

Aeronaut Thayer of Niles, Mich, while
making parachute trip at Streator, ILL.,,
fell 200 feet and was instantly killed.
The balloon ascension was one of the spe.
,cial features of the annual picnic Of the
Modern Woodmen. The balloon rose rap.
idly and moved to the southeast about
half mile before Thayer cut loose.
When he did so the balloon was alreads
settling and before he could get out Of
the way the great bag turned over and
struck the parachute, overturning it, and
all descended together. When Thayer's
body was found both arms, both legs and
his spine were broken.
Prof Bert Kimball, who made bal
loon ascension at the Knights of Pythias
picnic at Bawbeese Park at Hillsdale,
Mich, dropped into Bawbeese lake and
drowned before assistance could reach
him. Ills home was at North Adams,

To Some Extent Responsible.

It is useless to deny that the policy Of
protection to American labor and in
dustry is more or less responsible for
the existing deadlock on the wage
question between the tin plate manu-
facturers and their employees. Had
there been no protective tariff on tin
plate there would certainly be no labor
trouble in that industry at the present
time, and for the best of all reasons:
There would now be no tin plate indus
try in this country, and the question
of wages could not possibly have come
up. It will be remembered that prior
to the enactment of the Mckinley law
there were no tin plate mills and hence
no labor troubles.

WARSHIPS SAIL TO HAYTi.
They Will Protect American Interests
in San Domingo.

IN san Domingo.
Secretary Long Friday issued orders
detaching the cruiser New Orleans from
the North Atlantic squadron at Newport
and directing her to proceed at once to
Santo Domingo city. Orders were issued
also to the Machais at st. Thomas, to
proceed to the same point via San Juan.
These orders were made at the instance
of the State Department and as pre-
cautionary measure owing to the disturb
ed conditions following the assassination
Of President Heureaux of San Domingo.
The trouble between the Government
of San Domingo and it's creditors has
reached an acute stage. The creditors,
who are almost entirely Americans, have
begun to clamor for an American protec-
torate, which would necessarily be the
first step in the direction of annexation.
Political plots are already shaping them
selves. The adherents of Gen. Jlmlnez
seek to put him at the head of affairs,
while the friends of Gen. Maxine Co.
mez are talking of making him the ruler
of the republic. 1t is said by officers
who have recently been in San Domingo
that interference by this Government
would be welcomed by a large proportion
of the inhabitants of the island.

The Messenger Bovs, Strike,

Even the marble playing messenger
boys seem to be tolerably lively when
they are on a strike.-Cincinnati Com
mercial-Tribune.
The general impression is that if the
boys take as long to strike as they do to
deliver messages no great inconvenience
will ensue.-Nashville American.
Who shall win fame by identifying the
strike germ? Even the New York news
boys have caught the disease land the
messenger boys of the metropolis threat
en- to go out to-day. AS we all know,
when messengers go out it is a matter
of some moment.-Boston Journal
The messenger boys strike ought, if
the strikers are true to their immemorial
traditions, to be conducted with the ut
most leisure and deliberation, even with
touch of "that repose which stamps
the caste Of We're de Vere." If, how
ever, it shall have the effect of changing
the nature of the strikers, so as to make
them trifle more sudden, not to say pre-
cipitate, the wondering public will rejoice
with fitting awe.-New York Tribune.

Lets Train Go over His Leg,

William Charles, section foreman on
the Milwaukee Railway, was working on
the railroad crossing at Racine Junction
when his foot was caught between one of
the rails and a pipe used for the signal
tower. Before he could extricate it the
west-hound milk train bore down on him
and he saw that he would be crushed to
death unless he threw his body outside
the rail and allow the train to pass across
his leg. This he did, and the locomotive
and cars ground his leg to pieces below
the kuee. 1t is believed that he will sur
vive the terrible shock

England's Spoiled Child.

England's spoiled child" needs some
earnest admonition from the mother
country Bee.
II England can only quiet Canada, the
enfant terrible Of the mother country,
who insists on making such rumpus
that her elders can't hear themselves
talk, the difficulty will probably be
smoothed over-New York Herald.
Since the firm stand taken and main
tanned by the United States on the Alas
kan boundary question Great Britain is
said to be yielding something of her
claims and responding in better spirit to
our representations. 1t is well for Mr.
Bull to understand that other people can
be firm as well as himself. Indianapolis
Journal.
There is an almost universal opinion
in this country to the effect that Great
Britain has permitted the amity now ex-
listing between the two countries to be un-
necessarily threatened by her weakness
in the treatment of Canada. The latter
country has played her traditional role OF
a spoiled Washington Star.
