contractt ors at low figures and goods so manufactured undersell merchan iliRrunarln tvhcrn ncnal wages are paidIt would seem expeuiuni tuw lecfc some industries that cannot be sustained in this country on t- ccount of the difference in the price of labor and have prisoners do such work During the tariff hearings recently it was stated that gun barrels could not be made in his country therefore they should be admitted free Here then is aniopportunity to set convicts to man ufacturing something that would not interfere with American labor Nearly all the wooden toys are made in the Black Forest in Ger many where the cost of labor is nominal They could be made in penitentiaries Then we import many articles from China and Japan because ourdmechanics cannot compete Oriental cheap labor Lacemak ing is a slow tedious and unprofit able employment and our people cannot compete with the underpaid labor of Europe These are the articles that should be selected for prison manufacture and not such as can be profitably made by our own people The question of good roads is one in which all the states arc becoming interested and the employment of certain classes of prisoners upon roadwork would lessen the cost of their construction and mainten ance help to solve this perplexing problem and be a benefit to all parties The adoption of some practical plan of inaugurating these new industries where the price ofI labor can be eliminated would remove a source ot irritation and injustice from the minds of skilled workman who are now obliged to compete with prison labor and af ford the necessary employment to the convicts while the outlay would be the same whether working or idle Customs as Duties are not Taxes During the hearing before the Ways and Means Committee R T Smith a representative of the Canned Goods Association of Baltimore protested against any in crease duties ci the ground thatI they would decrease the revenue of the Government and enable home manufacturers to raise prices The three Baltimore tinplate mills he said had been dosed under the the Wilson law but the witness thought from other causes than thatI law For a year past American tin plate had been from from fifteen to twenty Five cents per 100 pounds cheaper than foreign plate delivered at American seaports When the McKinley act imposed it duty on tinplate a great howl went up from the free traders who qCs L predthjdir4 results to the canning Interests and incidentally to farmers and consumers because the price of tinplate would thereby be raisedThe tariff they said is a tax the duty being added to the price abroad and the consumer here has to pay it An impetus was given to the tin plate industry by tho protction afiorded under the McKinley sched ule and prices had been reduced but the duty was lowered by the Wilson bill and several factories had to close and numerous projected plants were left unfinished By new methods of making the block plates and labor saving devices for dipping some of the mills have been able to continue business without loss hoping for a change in the economic policy of the government Meanwhile the Velch factories which had been idle under he McKinley tariff have started up again They evidently do not that the Americans pay tax Andnow the silk ribbon makers of Lyons arc exercised lest the McKinley rates should be rcimposec and they should lose the market for goods which have been pour ing in here under the bcnificcnt and and sheltering care of the Wilspn bill and the advantage of cheap foreign labor while the siik mills ol Patterson and Scranton are run ing halftime and light handed The history of all industries started in this country and judiciously fos tered by a protective tariff during their infancy shows that eventually the price of their product was de- reased for the benefit of the home by dcmestic competition If some of the iron and steel manufacturers have attained a po- ition which requires no protection if certain textile industries are able to hold their own without tariff it only indicates the good that former protection did and they can now wisely be left to take care of themselves The

affairsFrankfort Capital The South Halls the Death of Sectionalism I MaconTelegraph Dem The flag of sectionalism raised and flaunted in the Chicago con vention by Tillman of South Car olina went down in the November crash and it should be made to stay down We still maintain that Mr McKmley will show a broad statesmanship and will contribute to the prosp rity of the South if he shall by recognizing generously its geopraphical claims to Cabinet representation go that far toward distinguishing forever the flame of sectionalism And the American people desire that he should do this This was made full evident during the campaign For his frequent and earnest ape peals for obliteration of sectional lines Mr McKinley was on all sides and the reception ac corded General Palmer and Gen eral Buckner wherever they went showed that the people cordially responded to the sentiment It is within Mr McKinleys power to fulfill the hope that he has himself aroused by showing to the world that so far as he is concerned the lines have been wiped out and that the business interests of the South are no lodger to be menanced bymailed hands It is true enough that the South can get on without this recognition

bridge at Nashville aid march into that city in a body On the morning of May 5 next that being the slay that the general Con federate reunion will begin The idea is to concentrate all the ex

their names be stricken from the local option petition The day has been consumed in arguing the point and the question taken under advisement The court overruled the motion of Dear and others and the fight continues along the old lines The Farmers Journal said last week There is a rumor current to tlicieffect that the whisky men inat to prevent an election on local option And the question Arises who is running this county the people or the whisky ring The UW says that when 25 er cent of the legal voters of each voting pre petitioIfortion the county judge shall call an election In this case 40 percent of the legal voters have signed the petition and it remains now to be seen whether a few whisky men have more powerand influence than 3000 legal voters and reputable citizens SUNK BY

placed in the river sunk the Relampago Those of the crew who survived swam toward shore but were fired on from the banks At this critical moment a boat was launched from the Centinela which rescued the men In view of instructions and the fact that the Commander of the Centincla and nearly all of the crews of both gunboats had beet seriously wounded the expedition had to return to Manzanillo Six

hand for the remain ing ones the ranKement was that after taking out 1000 for the lee turcr the expenses and hoo for the manager the remainder was to be divided between Mr Bryan and Mr McBee If it had turned out well there would have been a good deal of moqey in it for both of them It was my idea to bring him out at St Louis Chicago Cleveland Buffalo and so on in the large cities where I believed large audiences would be drawn out of curiosity but Mr McBee thought it would be a good thing to open up in Atlanta and that program was decided on One of I suppose was to boom his rail road Well the thing was boomed for three weeks The city was ex tensiVely billed Capt Evan P Howell of the Atlanta Constitution II did cveryhing in his power to help on the cause Special rates were made on all the railroads for a hundred miles around But the people wire too poor and there was not enough of them The ball secured was a very large one seat ing 3500 or 4000 people but an audience of not more than 2500 was got together Then the lecture was not a success in itself For one thing Bryans voice was not in good shape He had made 600 speeches during the campaign and his voice had not recuperated as was expected For another thing it appears when you take him on any other subject than money or politics he is no good At the close of the lecture Mr McBee offered him a certified check lor 10000 to cover the first ten lecteres but he refused to take it and would only accept 1000 for the first onesAs far as Atlanta was concerned we just about cleared II expenses It was thought in the beginning that the managers of the defeated candidate for the presidency might make 100000 by bringing him before the country in a new role Now they probably count them selves lucky in coming out of the venture

vigorous cnisade against this evil which a leading city daily declares is sweeping through the schools like a scourge and leaving a wake of havoc and incipient mental wreckage When tho two great educators of American citizens the public school and the newspaper press unite forces against the cigarette the cigarette must go It is not enough to have laws prohibiting its sale to minors for the difficulty of obtaining conclusive evidence against violators of the law makes this method of attack comparative ly ineffective The law must be supplemented by watchfulness on the part of parents aud by teach ing in the schools which shall de monstrate to pupils the effect of the cigarette habit upon the human organism The goal to be arrived at is the prohibition of the manu facture of the deadly

discovered and matteroffact persons should have let it alone It did not belong to their sphere Its location was in the imagination of Defoe where Crusoe and his man Friday were born and lived and acted their parts Since matterof fact persons did dabble in the thing and find an island there is no better fate for it than evanish ment in a puff of volcanic smolce Nobody cares anything for the island or the facts of the case The only truth in the matter worth noting that Robinson Crusoe lived on an island and had a man named Friday and met with a lot of entertaining adventures still stands

miles so that the amount of power exerted and steam generated in a given period of time must bo eight times as great as the faster speed This means that the capacity of the holler cylinders and the other parts must be greater with corresponding addition to the weight of the machine Obviously therefore if the weight per wheel on account of the weight that the rails will carry Is limited we soon reach a point when the driving wheels and other parts capnot be further enlarged and then we reach the maximum speed The eke adjustment necessary of the various parts jf tbeACvjmmense en gines may be
