HIS ATTITUDE.

President McKinley Not In sympathy
with Fres-Tr.ds Innovations.
There is good reason to believe that
the well-informed Washington corre-
spondent of the Philadelphia Press
speaks with knowledge and authority
when he asserts that President McKin-
ley is opposed alike to tariff revision
and to the Kasson plan of reducing
tariff rates by special trade treaties.
The president, it is said, deprecates the
opening up of the tariff question as
disturbing and injurious to business
interests, and the Babcock folly OF
slaughtering the minor concerns by re-
moving all protective duties from for
eign products competing with the pro-
ducts of the steel trust will receive no
encouragement from the administra-
ton.
With equal positiveness it is affirmed
that President Mckinley has not
only exerted no pressure for the ratifi-
cation of the French reciprocity treaty,
but, on the contrary. has been in full
sympathy with the protectionist OPP
position to that ill-advised and mis-
chievous instrument. According to the
Press correspondent the president
did not examine the French treaty be-
fore submitting it to the senate for ap-
prevail, and hence was not aware that
Commissioner Kasson had agreed upon
draft distinctly designed to benefit
certain industries by Withdrawing
needed protection from other indus
tries.
With equal reason it may be taksn
for granted that the president haG lot

of the proposed Argentina treaty.
which provided for a reduction of 20
per cent from the duties on wool pro-
vided for in the Dingley tariff law.
Undoubtedly the president is in
favor of reciprocal trade arrangements
that shall enlarge the foreign demand
for American products, but it is real
and not bogus reciprocity that he Ia
vors-the reciprocity authorized by the
Republican national platform of 1900,
in what we do not ourselves pro-
duce." Those who imagine that Presi-
dent Mckinley is today anything less
than the sound and consistent protec-
Zionist that he always was are nursing
a vain delusion. The president is a
friend of American labor and industry.

ston.w.n JACKSON. Wounds.


In view of the recent discussion
whether Frank s. Rosenthal of Carroll
ton, Mo-, a Louisiana Tiger" is the
man who fired the shot which resulted
in the death of Stonewall Jackson,
review of the facts in this case may
prove interesting. Gen. Clement A.
Evans. who was a colonel in Gen.
Jackson's command at the time, and
who later was promoted to the COM
mand of the famous Stonewal1 brigade,
when told of Mr. Rosenthals fears
that he was the particular man who
fired the fatal shot, said the idea OF
any one man thinking he was respon-
sible for Jackson's death was ridicu-
lous There were three distinct
wounds" said Gen. Evans, land to the
best of my recollection the shots were
fred by North Carolina troops" Gen.
Evans referred to Memoirs of Stone
wall Jackson" by his widow. Mary
Anna Jackson, says the Atlanta (Ga)
News. This gives complete account
of the untimely accident which took
from the southern forces their most
brilliant leader. Col. Augustus Choate
Hamlin names the 33d and 18th North
Carolina regiments as the ones 1mme-
diately adjacent to the spot where Gen.
Jackson was shot and the 18th is
named as firing the fatal shots Mrs.
Jackson's account, in part, of the ac-
cident, in her work on the life Of her
husband, is as follows: Gen. Jack
son, accompanied by a part of his staf
and several couriers, advanced on the
turnpike in the direction of the enemy
about 100 yards, when he was fired
upon by a volley of musketry from his
right front. The bullets whistled
among the party and struck several
horses. This first was evidently from
the enemy and one of his men caught
the bride rein and said to him. Gen.
jackson, you should not expose your
self so much There is no danger
he replied, the enemy is routed. Go
back and tell Gen. Hill to press on
But in order to screen himself from
the flying bullets he rode from the road
TO the left and rear. The small trees
and brushwood being very dense, it
was dificu1t to effect a passage on
horseback. While riding as rapidly as
possible to the rear, he came in front
of his own line of battle, who, having
no idea that he, or any one but the
enemy, was in their front, and. mis-
taking the party for a body of federal
cavalry, opened a sharp fire upon
them From this volley Gen. Jackson
received his mortal wounds. His right
arm was pierced by a bullet, his left
arm was shattered by two balls, one
above and one below the elbow, break
ing the bones and severing the main
artery. His horse, Little Sorre1, ter
rified by the nearness and suddenness
of the fire, dashed on in the direction
of the enemy and it was with great
difficulty that he could control him
his bride hand being helpless, and the
tangle brushwood. through which he
was borne. almost dragging him from
his seat But he seized the refns with
his right hand, and. arresting the flight
of the horse, brought him back into
his own lines, where. almost fainting.
he was assisted to the ground by Capt
Wilbourne, his signal officer"

Washington Sugar.

A. D. Thayer, of Waverly, has found
the culture of sugar beets profitable.
This year he had 42t acres of land de-
voted to the raising of beets, from
which he received S5S,642 pounds, re-
alizing net profit of $950.51, or $2l.S3
per acre. Mr.. Thayer has kept accur-
ate account of the expenses incurred in
raising the crop, including the use OF
the land and hauling to factory, and
finds that the actual cost of the beets
per acre delivered at the factory was
$29.5S. The gross receipts of the crop
were s2,137, and the cost 1856, leav'
ing a net profit OF &950.5l. The yield
per acre was about 9.S7 tons, and the
average price received at the factory
Was 1921 per ton.
The beet sugar factory closed the
season November Is. The campaign
has been very successful as compared
with previous years. About 26,OOC
sacks of granulated sugar were manu-
featured during the G0-day run.
