MR., SHAW's Secretary Shaw. in
TARIFF discussing the tariff
SPEECH. question at Iowa CITY
on the 24th inst. said:
"The Dingley tariff law of 1897 incor-
porated the iron and steel schedules
as they existed in the Wilson--Gorman
law. If the tariff is now too high on
iron and steel Democrats have no right
to complain, for their party formu-
lated the schedule
The iron and steel schedules OF the
tariff act of 1894 were formed by the
finance committee of the senate, ma
iority of whose members were Repub-
icans. and the amendments were Of
fered on the floor of the senate as
amended by Matt Quay OF Pennsyl-
yania to the Democrats tor acceptance
and if not accepted the senator stated
he would occupy the floor until the ses-
sion expired by limitation and thus
prevent a vote being taken. The
Democrats had to accept the Repub-
lican bill or continue in force the Nc
kinley tariff. under which the deficit
was SIS 10000 year.
A tariff for revenue only is re-
striction on commerce to the amount
Of the tariff levied and differs only
in a degree from a tariff levied for
the avowed purpose of "protection,'
which means to prohibit or restrict
commerce. to lessen the demand for
the products of American labor, the
demand for labor and the compensa-
tion for labor.
The price of cattle at the union
stock yards of Chicago has Eeei low}r
each year from 1866 to the present
time than it would have been bu for
the tariffs We export beef and would
not import any considerable quantity
were beef and fat cattle on the free
list.
1t is a wonder that Mr.. Shaw did
not claim that the birth rate among
farmers was greater when farmers
We're forced TO pay more for what they
sell than under any other conditions.
If commerce were prohibited what
would the result be to agricultural in
dustries?

Bravery Unsurpassed
Federal Trooper Rode Against a Whole Army

What was one of the most dangerous
and daring acts of individual bravery
performed during the civil war is re-
lated by Capt. l.. S. Flatau, formerly
sheriff of Camp county, Tex, but now
resident of st. Louis.
Capt. Flatau is now chief of ordi-
nance on the staff of Gen. w. L. Cabell,
commander-in-chief of the United Con-
federate Veterans. During the civil
war he was a member of Cowan's bat
terry of Vicksburg, Miss.
The deed of bravery related by Capt.
Flatau was performed by a federal
soldier whose name was Allen, at
Snyder's Bluff on the Yazoo river above
Vicksburg on the day Gen. Grant made
his famous attack on that town, says
the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
The confederate forces were massed
at Snyder's Bluff. The federal forces,
on transports supported by gunboats,
were moving up the river preparatory
to landing and fighting their way
around to Vicksburg. At the same
time Gen. Grant made a feint of at
tacking Bruensburg. The confederate
commander expected the attack at
Snyder's Bluff, and paid but little at
tention to the movement against
Bruensburg.
From the hills, about mile from the
river, the federal transports were in
plain view of the confederate forces
across an old but beautiful farm that
nestled in the bottoms. Near the bank
of the river was heavy growth of
timber, and there the federal comman-
der landed about 10000 men and
formed his battle line.
There was intense excitement in the
confederate army, which had also
formed in battle line to meet the at
tack. While the two armies were lined
up facing each other, the wonderful
exhibition of nerve related by Capt
Flatau was given. Capt. Flatau's
story runs as follows:
AS we were expecting them to
charge, a horseman moved out from
their line and rode direct to our center
down an old turnroad in the field and
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1903-03-20

I'm the meantime, one of my COM
pany, Joe Willis, asked to look at
one of the pistols. Willis had the
pistol in his hand, and many of us
were admiring it when we saw the
patrol guard coming to take the de-
serter, as he appeared to be, to head
quarters, that he might be interro-
gated by our officers. But he saw
them approaching, and began to get
uneasy and restless.
His bride and saddle were of the
Mexican make, and he wore a pair
of beautiful spurs. AS the guard
approached, and came within 80 or 40
feet of the crowd, we being attract
ed by the guard, did not pay as close
attention to him as we should have
done.
Quicker than flash, ho pulled his
left bride rein and spurred his right
foot into the tlanks Of his horse,
which leaped the works Like the
flight of bird and hit the ground
on the other side running.
after he had gone 60 or 80 yards
from our line, he threw himself over
on his saddle and swung back over
the quarters of the animal, whipping
her with his broad-brimmed hat, and
cried at the top of his voice: 'Hur-
ray for Kentucky! By God!' and
repeated this as far as we could hear.
'None of the men thought of a
gun or of firing at this dashing rider
until he was $50 yards back toward
the Yankee line. Then there were
two men on our right who opened
fire on him with Springfield rifles.
1 shouted to them not to shoot, and
he rode without any danger from
our side, save three shots that were
fired.
"As he neared the Yankee lines
they rent the heavens with their
yells, and every gunboat opened on
our line, broadside after broadside,
until they shook the very earth
around us with bursting shells. But
our friend was back in the lines.
He had performed the dangerous
feat under the direction of Gen.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1903-03-20

in plain view of every one in our line
of battle. This old turnroad was
straight and level, with no obstruction
whatever. As the horseman left the
Yankee line, it fred volley after vol
ley at him, but he rode direct to us
at breakneck speed. When within $50
yards of us he pulled his hat from his
head, and, whipping the beautiful ami
NAL he rode with his hat, cried,
'Hurrah for kentucky"
"The animal, coming at this fearful
speed, jumped the breastworks within.
ten feet of my gun, and never left her
tracks. She was the very perfection
of horse flesh, and as she stood with
her nostrils expanding and contract
ing, so thin that the sun shown through
them like silk, 1 thought the rider and
the horse made the most beautiful pic
ture ever beheld.
He was one man in the world I en-
We'd at the time. He wore a blue
Kentucky jeans suit and had buckled
about him beautiful pair of ivory
handled pistols. His name was en-
graved on the pistols, and that is
how l knew his name was Allen.
"When he landed within our lines,
he exclaimed, in loud voice: Hell
10, boys, how are you? / have been
longing to join you. This was a
rather desperate feat, but L took the
opportunity, and 1 am with you. God
bless all of you! How are you, any
how?'
"Our boys began to crowd around
him, and in few minutes there were
more than hundred of us talking
with the newcomer. One of the Of
fcers came up and ordered us to dis
perse, as we would draw the fire of
the enemy.

"Chee? Chee2 Me not know,
senior. Me see not chez that day-it
plenty make in house."
Her English, good enough at or
dinary times, gave out entirely with
the stress of the tragedy, and there
seemed no connection between a few
crumbs of cheese unaccounted for
and the death of the master of the
house. Jack Lugren laid aside the
puzzle as insolvablc and gave his at
tention to more important details.
One of these was having n photo
graph taken of his uncle for reasons
of his own. When the funeral was
over and his FRIEND Ross Morton, a
young Englishman, subaltern in
the royal navy, was staying with him
prior to the trip the two were about
to make to Japan, Jack made n crit
ical examination of the picture with
a magnifying lens. What he saw
compelled him to drop it in alarm
and call to his friend.
ROSS, for Gods sake come herel
Tell me what you see."
Morton took the lens and exam
ined the photograph with the same
care Jack had used. "The devil!" he
exclaimed; look at the eyes. Some
thing not human is reproduced there.
Do you see that frightful face? 1t
your uncle saw that the shock must
have killed him.
81 do not believe in the supernat-
ural, and if this is not a trick of
the camera 1 shall find out what it is
Ross, sleep in that room tonight"
Let me occupy the lounge-you
may need assistance"
"No, 1 will keep watch alone. I
cannot cope with supernatural pow
ers, but if anything of this world
attacks me l will down it. And 1
shall take all due precautions against
secret assassins. This night can
hardly wait"
