HIS WOUND Is SERIOUS.
Marshal Hail of Adrian Is in Danger
GUS Condition


Adrian, Ga, July 10.-Marshal Y. L.
Hall, who was shot yesterday by the
ex-convict, is in a precarious condi-
ton. The doctors say he has some
chance for recovery, though the wound
is very serious. Some of the men who
composed the posse have returned, but
there are several still in pursuit. Ru-
NOR here last night said that some
men had captured and lynched the
negro. No names were given and this
rumor is not authoritative, but if he
is captured no doubt he will be lynch
ed.
The negro had just finished serving
a ten-year sentence for killing a ne
gro at Barlow, Ga, over a game of
cards. Last Monday he broke into
a mans house at Rockledge and stole
fine shotgun, and this is the charge
Hall had against him yesterday.

Idustries against foreign invasion OF our

they could sell cheaper here with a

100000 OF manufactured articles that are
protected by high duties on import into

countries OF the world ran these figures
up to about $500. 600. 600. In agricultural
implements alone we sold to farmers
in foreign countries sl6-e00, COO worth.
These we're sold at less price than was

Farmers, and the latter hac to pay,
in addition to the profits on their own
purchases, those that were knocked off

Iderselling those markets. Thousands
Iof tons Of steel rails were sold in Eu-
Irope at s23 a ton while at the same
time Americans were forced TO pay s2S
la ton for the same kind and quality of
goods. Is it not p~reportsrous, then, to
claim that our present high tariff is
needed to build up and project Ameri-
can industries.
By the passage Of the Sherman act
the republican party admitted that
trusts were a menace TO this country
and should be controlled by the govern
lment. Mr.. Roosevelt says congress
must pass more stringent laws for their
Mr.. Root, the republican
secretary of war, says the only way to
get at the trusts is to revise the tariff.
Mr. Shaw, the present secretary OF the
treasury, admits that the tariff laws
revision, but is afraid for his party
to undertake it now. MIR. Babcock,
chairman of the republican campaign
during the last session of

duties on steel and iron. What better |

tive source could it come, that this
is suffering under the burden of |
high protective tariff?
