RECIPROCITY OF TWO KINDS.
The Kind That the Republicans Fa-
vOr IL That Which Is Approved
by the Sugar Trust.

From the standpoint of pure theory
reciprocity is a fine thing. If, while
getting rid of our own absurd tariff we
can induce other nations to abolish
their equally absurd tariffs, it is obvi-
Il that we shall confer a great boon
upon them as well as ourselves. Reel
procity that reciprocates is more to
be desired than gold, yea than much
fine gold" It is the best possible way
to free trade. But unfortunately that
kind of reciprocity doesn't exist ex-
cept as an ideal in the mind of the the
orist. The kind of reciprocity that has
any chance of passing a republican SEN
ate is the kind approved by the sugar
trust and other monopolistic inter-
ests. This kind of reciprocity is truly
"the handmade of protection 1t
makes it possible for the protected
monopoly to get a portion at least of
it's raw material cheaper, while holding
the price for its manufactured product
at the same level. Consumers at home
will not receive any benefit. Incl
dentally our exporters will receive
some gain from more extended mar
kets. but the field of this trust reeu.
lated reciprocity will be so narrow
that the increase in exports will not be
large. The tariff is bound to be a lead
ing issue in the next political cam
paign. The republicans will no doubt
J,,a, l.. --uJ
what an excellent thing it is. Let the
people beware of the reciprocity that
has for its object the perpetuation and
strengthening of the protective sys.
TEN. On the other hand. the demo-
cratic party can strengthen the cause
of free trade by advocating reciprocity

The Mono, like the Turk, has a pref
erence for moon faced" wives, and
a bride is more valued for her weight
than her accomplishments. When a
girl is about IL years old, she is pre-.
pared for the marriage market by a
treatment not unlike that to which
geese are subjected before Michael
mas. Her hands are tied behind her.
and for so many hours a day she is
seated or a carpet, while her father,
armed with a stick, stands by, and her
mother from time to time pops into
her mouth a ball of maise porridge
kneaded up with grease and just large
enough to be swallowed without the
victim choking. If the poor child re-
fuses to be stuffed, she is compelled;
so she soon resigns herself to the in
evitable and meekly swallows the
boluses for fear of a beating. Ger
tainly she has to suffer in order to be
beautiful, and it is to be hoped that
her Affections are lightened by rosy
dreams of future happiness.-London

BRAVE INDIANS M
Courageous Red Men Who Are Re-
membered for Service in Wip-
ing Out Sitting Bull.

If the efforts of the interior depart
ment shall prove to be more successful
with the present congress than they
have for the past ten years there will
be authorized a number of medals of
honor which will bear the most unique
inscriptions of any like tokens OF brav-
cry ever authorized by the United
States government, reports the Wash
ington Star.
At daylight December IS, 1890, the
Indian chief, Sitting Bull, was arrested
at his camp near Fort Yates, North Da-
kota, by a number of native Indian po-
lice. In the fight which Immediately
followed the arrest-as a number of
Sitting Bulls followers came to his
rescue-he was killed, as were also a
number of the police.
Great credit has been given to this
band of 43 imperfectly armed police,
who coolly went to Sitting Bulls camp,
where they faced and successfully
routed 100 Indians who were on the
warpath and wrought up to the high
est pitch of excitement through the
medium of the ''ghost Dance" and
every year since that memorable fight
congress has been placed in posses
sion of it's details by the secretary of
the interior, together with the indorse-
ment regarding the bravery of the
loyal Indians by the military authori-
ties and the Indian agents.

quested medals will be struck off and

THE WALLER
The Prosecution In the Case Closed
and the Defense Begun, Con-
Quoted BY Capt. Mark.

Manila, March 23.-The prosecution
in the trial by court-martial of Maj.
Littleton w. Il. Waller, of the marine
corps. on the charge of executing ma
tives of the island of Samar without
trial, is closed. Capt. Arthur Z. Ma
riX, of the marine corps, representing
Maj. Waller, opened the defense by
promising to show five things-the
work of the firing party, the nature
of Maj, Walters services in Samar,
the t~reacherous character of the ma.
tives, the conditions at the base and
Maj. Walters status there, and that
the executions were necessary, law
full and justiiable.
Capt. David d. Porter. of the ma
rine corps, testified that he was pres
ent when Gen. Smith gave Maj. Wal
Ter his orders, which Maj. Waller
never exceeded. At the outset Mai.
Waller warned his command that
they were opposed by a treacherous,
brave and savage foe, and that all
~treachery should be punished with
death, and closed with an appeal to
the command to remember the fate
of their old China comrades of the
Ninth infantry and avenge them.

FED A POPULAR VERDICT.
Jury IA, Nellie Cropsey Case Held
Young Wilcox Guilty of MUIR
der in First Degree.

Elizabeth City, y. C., March "a
The verdict that young Wilcox was
guilty of the murder of Miss Nellie
Cropsey, seems to have met popular
approval, though 1t was not consid-
cred probable, early Saturday, that
the jury would so report. District
Attorney Ward said he never looked
for any verdict other than murder in
the second degree. Lawyer Aydlett,
for the defense. will enter an appeal
on behalf of the prisoner. He will
seek to set aside the verdict on the
ground that it was not consistent
with the evidence brought out in the
trial. There is little prospect of the
prisoners paying the death penalty
on the date set by Judge Jones. AS
the supreme court does not meet till
next September it is more than prob
able that il will be 12 months before
the case is disposed of finally,

THIRTY RIOTERS KILLED.
Attacked the Jail and Attempted to
Release Prisoners-They Fired
on Soldiers, WOunding One.

Tifis, Transcaucasia, Russia. March
24.-The Official Causasu Gazette re-
ports a strike among the men en-
ployed at the Rothschilds' petroleum
works at Batoum, on the Black sea.
According to this newspaper 800
strikers went, last Friday, to the po-
lice station and demanded release of
the r~ingleaders who had been arrest
ed the previous day, This demand
was refused.
The strikers reassembled the fol-
lowing day Saturday., attacked the
Jail and attempted to release the
prisoners. They fred at the soldiers
who were guarding the prison. The
latter, in turn, fired on the mob.
Thirty of the rioters were killed and
one soldier was wounded.

BURNED SHIP IDENTIFIED.
Was the Major Barrett. and the Be-
lief is that Her Crew Escaped
and Were Picked Up.

Charleston, s. c., March 23.-The
unknown steamer reported atire yes
terday by the crew of the Oregon In
let life station of North Carolina, to-
day was identified as the oil steamer
Major Barrett, bound from Sabine
Pass, Tex, to New York. though her
port was Philadelphia. 1t is believed
some passing vessel rescued the crew
of the tire-stricken ship. though no
definite information to this effect has
been received here. The news of the
fate of the Major Barrett was
brought to this port to-day by Capt.
johnson of the steamship navarro,
from Boston, who reported that, on
the 22d, while between Hatteras and
Body's island, n. c., he passed the
steamer Major Barrett, which was on
fire. He cruised around the steamer.
but saw no sign of life. The sea was
smooth, and as two empty boats were
adrift in the vicinity it is believed the
crew were rescued and the boats
then abandoned.

THE SUBSIDY BILL INIQUIrY.
Nothing But a GIarins Attempt BY
MOnoFolists at Class Leg
tslation.

Senator Foraker made the somewhat
remarkable statement the other day
that he was opposed to the subsidiz-
ing of special interests, but would
make an exception in the east of the
ship subsidy bill because he thought
it would result in the accomplishment
of the purposes indicated in the title
of the measure. In other words, says
the Detroit Free Press, he looked upon
the principle as wrong and pernicious,
fell back upon the dangerous doc
crime that the end justifies the means.
Senator'S Allison, of Iowa, and Spooner,
of Wisconsin, cannot thus easily rec
oncile themselves to the demands OF
party politics. They are not satisfied
with the bill, and we fail to compre-
bend how any number of amendments
can attract them to its support. 1t
is based upon a false hypothesis, and
n that antagonizes the very essence
Of our institutions. The laws of a num-
Der of states against trusts were re-
Gently nullified because they discrim-
mated in favor of certain interests,
and were thus voidable because o.
class legislation.
1t has been shown beyond contro-
versy that the bill under considera-
ton is a glazing attempt at class legis-
iation. As pointed out in the able
address of Senator Clay, of Missouri,
there are tens of thousands engaged
in meritorious industries, farmers and
manufacturers, who are losing money
or barely making ends meet. 1t is as
incumbent upon the government to
give them means to promote their I'M
dertakings as to subsidize the ship
ping interests that it is proposed to
benefit. As for that it would be easier
to defend a wholesale distribution of
money, taxed from the people, to as
sist languishing domestic interests
than to vindicate under false pre-
lenses a gift of undetermined millions
to a monopoly of maritime operators.
1t is unwarranted to assume from
the number of questions being asked
and amendments offered by them that
the two leading senators will eventu-
ally frame a subsidy bill that they will
support. Their objection is funda-
mental and opposed to the subsidy
upon any terms or conditions. They
questioned Frye, one of the authors of
the bill, and forced admissions of lack
of information on his part until he
grew peevish and was relieved of tor
ture as a matter of senatorial cour-
tesy. They put Senator Hanna where
he had to side step and spar for time.
Senator Depew had to apologize for
mistaken statements under misinfor-
nation. The very fact that those who
prepared the bill and are backing it
are not informed as to the material
evidence bearing upon it, and give
nothing but speculative estimates as
to the outcome; that they propose to
leave out in the cold the smaller YES
sells that are doing the bulk of the
trade upon our Atlantic seaboard, sug-
gests a selfish impetus behind the
movement.

CHINA'S HUMILIATION.
She Were incompetent for
SeIf-Defense.

Pckin. March 24.-There is little
discussion either among the diplo-
mats or the Chinese of the Franco
Russian declaration, and this declar.
alton is generally regarded Is max
ing for peace.
The Chinese newspapers are empha'
sizing the humiliation of China, say
ing she is treated by the powers as
though she We're incompetent to
defend her WI interests, and that
she is placed upon a level with
Corea.
The Chinese foreign Office is pre-
pairing to send independent minis
ters to establish legations in Italy,
Austria and Spain. The Chinese min
listers to Great Britain, Russia and
the United States, have heretofore
been respectively accredited to those
nations.

w. A. p. Martin. who was recently re-
lieved of the presidency of that insti-
tuition. Wau Mu Lun is a progressive

CONFESSED HIGH TREASON.
Col. Grimm Had sold Russian Mill
tars Secrets For the Past
Ten Years.

St. Petersburg, March 23.-The
semi-official Russky Invalid an
nounces that Col. Grimm, the Russian
officer who "a recently condemned
to death by a court-martial at War
saw, after having been convicted of
systematic revelation of military Sc
crets to a foreign power, has con
fessed to having been guilty of high
treason.
About GO arrests have been made at
Warsaw in connection with the trial
of Col. Grimm, who, it has been as
serted, had, during ten years, re-
vealed to Germany every plan pre-
pared by Russia in the c~ventuality of
war between the two countries.
The discovery of the colonel's trea-
son was made by his wife, who de-
nounced her husband in revenge for
his having paid attentions to anoth-
Ell woman.
