FERRER MEETS
FATE BRAVELY
Spanish Educator and Rev.
OlntiOniSt Shot.
KILLED BY FIRST VOLLEY


While Speaking of the Work for
Which He Had Sacrificed His Life
and of the Brave Attempt of His
Daughter, Who Made a Personal
Appeal to King Alfonso.
Barcelona, Oct. 14.-Professor Fran
cisco Ferrer, the Spanish educator
and convicted revolutionist, has been
shot. The execution was done at the
fortress of Montjuich, where the pris-
oner had been confined since his con-
demnation by court martial.
The doomed man faced the firing
squadron without fiinching and fell
dead at the first volley.
Ferrer, except for a momentary ex-
preston of emotion Immediately pre-
ceding his death, retained his COM
poSura to the last. To his attorney
Ferrer spoke fcelingly of the work for
which he had sacrificed his life and of
the future of his daughter whose
brave attempt to save his life touched
the father more deeply, apparently,
than any other incident of his trial
and conviction.
When it was known that her father
had been sentenced to death the
daughter made a personal appeal to
King Alfonso, calling upon him in the
name of his known generosity and
chivalry to spare her fathers life.
Ferrer declined to receive the last
sacraments and turned away from the
two priests who had been sent by the
prison authorities to offer him the
final consolation Of the church.
When the hour Of his execution ar
rived he walked bravely through the
prison yard to the ditch in the shadow
of the encircling wall. Without a
quiver he faced the twelve infantry
men, who, at the word of command
fired simultaneously. When the re
port of the volley mad died away Fer
rer lay dead upon the ground.
Previous to the execution precau
tions had been taken to forestall
possible attempt at rescue bS
doubling the sentinels upon the walls
Of the fortress.

Flioht of the Spirit.

A case recorded by Plutarch would
seem to support the theory that during
periods Of protracted insensibiity the
spirit Of the sleeper. freed from the
body, wanders away to realms and
scenes not conceivable by the ordinary
senses. A man named Thespius, he
tells us, fell from great height and
was picked up to all appearances dead.
There were no external wounds about
him. but the physicians were satisfied
of the fact of the decease. Arrange
ments were made for his burial, but
on the third day after his fall he re-
vived. much to the CONSERVATION of his
friends. In n short time Ii became
quite evident that the whole tenor of

WORDS OF some

McKinly.

81 am in favor Of the internal i'm
provement system and a high Protec-

Deocrats who are repudiating the
Free-Trade dogmas of their party
and voting for Protection with their
fellow Republican Congressman are
in good company. A candidate of the
Democratic party who received the
nomination for President is on re-
cord as follows:
The messages of all the Republican
Presidents, down to and including
General Jackson recognize and af-

stitutionality of Protective legislation.
In the Forty-sixth Congress Hon
Frank Hurd, Congressman from the
Toledo district and one of the ablest
and most conspicuous leaders of the
Democratic party of Free-Traders in
Ohio, in a joint resolution proposed
that the duty on tea and coffee
should be restored. The resolution
was reported to the House by the
chairman of the Committee on Ways
and Means. On that committee was
the distinguished Speaker of the
House and the eminent Virginian,M Mr..
Tucker. In his speech in Toledo at
the Lincoln banquet of the Ohio Re-
publican League, in 1891, William Nc
Kinley said.
| gratefully commend to the Demo-
crazy the patriotic utterances OF
Thomas jefferson: We must place the
manufacturer by the side of the agri-
culturist.' Experience has taught us
that manufacturers are now as nee
essary to our independence as to our
comfort, and If those who quote me
as of different opinion will keep pace
with me in purchasing nothing foreis
where an equivalent of domestic ia
brio can be obtained, without regard
to difference of price, 1t will not
be our fault if we do not have sup
ply at home equal to our demand.
In the same speech Mr.. Mckinley
quoted from Cardinal Manning, as fol
lows:
Free-Trade has created two things
irresponsible wealth which stagnate
and the starvation wages of the la
Dor market. Millions are in power

WHAT MAKES The
BEST MARKET FOR Us
The Ability Of the American PEG.
pie to Buy Abundantly what
the Farmer Produces.

No intelligent person will contend
that Americans in this country can
pay the prevailing rate of labor now
paid in this country and manufacture
goods if the Tariff Is lowered to en-
able cheap foreign productions to be
unloaded here. The Tariff was wisely
created by the Republican party fifty
years ago to build up the greatest
manufacturing fabric in the world
The advantages offered by that policy
have brought millions of foreigners
here because wages and conditions
were vastly better. The Tariff alone
made them SO.
Would foreigners come here if con-
editions were no better than they are
in Europe?
No manufacturer of goods in this
country could live and pay the high
wages he pays If there was no barrier
against one-third or one-half the rate Of
wages paid in this country and ship
ping his products here He could un-
dersell the home manufacturer, drive
him out OF business or force him to
reduce wages of his help to the con-
dition of the cheap labor he would
have to compete with. The facts are
so plain that a school boy can under
stand them.
And this is a matter in which every
farmer is vitality concerned. What
makes the market of the United State
the best in the world? IL is the
ability of the American people to
purchase abundantly CT what the far
mer produces isn't II?
And ninety odd per cent Of all that
the farmer produces is bought and
consumed in this country.
The free entry Of European and
tropical goods made with cheap labor
would force home manufacturers to
cut wages 80 per cent, reduce the
ability Of the wage workers to buy
farm products, and what would be the
effect on the prices and consumption
of what the farmer has to sell? II
don't require much understanding or
common sense TO figure this out.
Any farmer can reach the conclusion
in a few moments.
You can't buy goods made with
cheap foreign labor and maintain high
wages and good times in this coun-
try You can kiss your hand and
bank on that, and be sure you are
everlastingly right.
The policy that has built up the
greatest manufacturing industry in
the world that pays the highest wages
that has made the American wage
worker and the farmer the most pros
porous in all the world, is good
policy to tie TO. The only opponents
of it are the importers and whole
salers of foreign goods who want our
markets and have no interest in
American labor or the American far
mer. They are concerned solely in
their own pockets. And the yelping
howlers for Tariff revision downward
and for Free Trade are the real enc
mics of the unbounded prosperity tina
has been created by the adoption
Of the plinciple of Protection TO
home industry
Farmers, don't be misled on this /
subject. You don't have to be col |
