OFFICER WOUNDS TWO HORSES
In an Endeavorto Stop Men Who Were
Disturbing the Peace Saturday
Night,

Last Saturday night or early Sun
day morning the town was thrown
into IAN uproar by five pistol shots
fired in rapid succession by Officer
Broderick at a number of men who
We're passing along Second Street in
a conveyance draw n by two horses,
the property OF Mr.. Chas. A. Ashby,
of Crellin, who, the officer alleges,
were disturbing the peace, and not
obeying his command to halt he fired
upon them, two of the bullets taking
effect in the horses. One of the ami
mails received a bullet III the fieshy
part of its hind leg and the other was
shot just above the hoof.
The men, it seems. are employees
at the Crellin mill and came down to
Oakland that evening where they i'm
bibed pretty freely in the cup that
cheers. At midnight they started
home and the officer asserts raised a
disturbance by their loud talking and
whooping. He commanded them to
halt and not needing his injunction
he opened fire with the result above
stated.
Monday morn ~ Mr.. Ashby, the
owner of the horses, came to Oakland
and had two warrants issued for the
arrest of Broderick. One charging
him with assault with intent to muir
der and the other with cruelty to an
finals. Sheriff Frantz placed the man
under arrest and this afternoon at
two o'clock he viii be given a Lear
ing before Justice Gender upon the
charges.

WILL install WATER SYSTEM
Community Vacates Mr.. Yoder' S Fran
chise and Will Put In System of
Its Own.

At meeting of the Mountain Lake
Park Community last Tuesday the
franchise granted Mr.. L. Il. Yoder a
number of years ago for the install
lation of water system in the Park
was vacated and notice served upon
Mr.. Yoder to that effect.
Mr. Yoder it is said, has violated his
agreement with the officers of the
Community in not supplying a suffi-
cient quantity of water for the Park,
although he has a system of pipes
lsid along all the streets of the town
and connections made with the mains
into almost every house.
1t is the purpose of the Community
to issue bonds with which to install
the new system. The source of SUP.
ply will likely be taken from artesian
wells or from the lake.

544,242 tons of steel rails and paid for
them $50. 10000 more than the same
rails would have been sold for to for
eigners. This enormous extra profit
from Americans is arrived at from the
testimony of Mr.. Schwab, who was
president Of the steel trust, that rails
could be manufactured for SO a ton
and sold at fair profit in this country
at SIG ton. The average price during
the six years for which the computa-
ton is made was S2S per ton, which is
the price today The difference be-
tween SIG and S2S makes the amount
stated by Senator Bacon
Most people would not be especially
interested in how much the steel trust
plumbers the railroads, except that the
high prices OF rails undoubtedly add
to the rates for passenger and freight,
so that indirectly every one that uses
the railroads pays his share of that
enormous bonus.
The tariff duty on steel rails is $T.S4
a ton, and this tax prevents foreign
rails from being imported and thus
keeping the price within reasonable
bounds. Mr.. Schwab also said in his
testimony that foreign countries could
not manufacture steel rails for less
than $40 a ton, which, If freight and
duty are added, would make them cost
about S2S. the price the trust charges.
With this evidence of plumber that
the tariff allows the trust, who, except
the stand patters," will say that the
steel trust schedule should not be re-
vised? And the evidence that the same
tariff plumber IS fostering other trusts
in like manner is the reason the Dem
ocrats demand that all the schedules
that shelter trusts should also be re-
Vised

RepubEican Disoreanizers.

Tne proIectionists of Iowa diu not
dare to eXciTde all those Republicans
who favor tariff revision from partici-
pating in the national convention. for
the press dispatches say that six of
the delegates out of twenty-siK are re-
visionists. Perhaps the way Senator
Lodge bossed the job of getting rid of
a similar trouble in Massachusetts was
the better one. He read those who
favored reciprocity out of the party.
saying their place was with the Dem
ocrats. This is where all tariff revi-
sionists must finally line up if they
really want TO accomplish anything.
for the platform of the Republican
national convention will prove that
the trusts have more power with that
party than its honest voters have.

A Few Sample Infants.

The shoe manufacturers Of Massa-
chusetts say they are willing to sur
render the tariff on boots and shoes if
they are given free hides. That would
indicate that at least one industry had
outgrown its swaddlinG clothes and is
no longer an infant requiring pro
lection pap. If it is good for the boot
and shoe industry to have free trade.
why should the steel trade be protected!
1t cannot be claimed that gigantic trust
is an infant and requires protection to
keep it from being swamped by steel
produced by the pauper labor of Eu-
rope, for it is underselling the foreign
ers in all markets on some Of its prod
ucts.
The sugar trust has received through
reciprocity with Cuba 90 per cent dis
count on the tariff on sugar from that
island. How much 1t divides with the
Cuban sugar grower is not yet dis
covered. but the American consumer is
paying the same price, if not more. for
the refined article. Why not take off
the duty on sugar? The sugar trust is
no infant that needs protection.

Tariff Aids PIunderers.

The much disputed question of how
much cheaper the trusts sell their prod
uCts to foreigners than To the people of
the United States has been settled as
far as steel rails are concerned. The
evidence was produced by Senator Ba-
con in a speech made in the senate
April -. He concIusively shows by
the evidence OF Mr.. Wright. general
manager OF the Macon. Dublin and
Savannah Railroad company. that he
had paid SO a ton for steel rails for
his railroad which the steel trust of
fered 10 sell for $50 If exported TO
Honduras. Mr.. Wright, who is n Re
publican, was quite indignant AT being
thus plundered by the steel trust and
says:
We. American citizens, paid to this
American industry $4,000 in excess of
what foreigners would have been com
PEELED To pay" 4 bonus in excess of
