As evidence of the danger threalea
ing American manufacturers and work
ingmen by agitation against the new
tariff the otlicial returns of trade show
that the in pjris of free raw materials of
industry in me seven months ended in
July amounted in value to S101M22.554.
ae;iinslio2.277.o'.,- ia the corresponding
period of 1'J4. This enormous increase
in the imports of h crude materials of
niaouf-tetu es twars emphatic testimony
to the rapid growth of American indus
tries in th new rra of freedom that is
opened to them. Raw material consis'S of
of wool, hides, hemp, flax. Jute, wood and
msuy '-ther articles which cannot be ob
tained in sutticient abundance in tins
country. hen utii'es are impose
them as in the McKinley tariff their
mportation is obstructed and American
manufactures consequently languish.
While the threats of the protectionists
re mainly directed against free wool,
their policy threatens all Ire- raw mate
rials. There is as much reason for im
posing high protective duties on hides,
kins, llax, hemp, lumber, etc., as on
wool. It is not forgotten that when tne
McKinley tariff was in the committee
ou wavs and means a majority of the
committee proposed to put a protective
duty on hides. The chief iuflunce in
favor of this duty was the great dressed
beef combination ia Chicago. But the
angry protests of the tanners through
out the country and of the shoemakers
in Massachusetts drove the Republicans
in congress from their purpose. Hides
were struck out of the bill, and the du
ties on wool were heavily increased.
Many sincere protectionists deplored the
inconsistency of a measure that taxed
the raw materials of the woolen manu
factures and give the manufacturers of
leather goods thtir materials free.
These honest p:otectionists could not
ee why the hide of an ox should not be
taxed, as well as the wool of a sheep.
If the Renubiicans obtain sufficient
power to re act the wool duties, as they
threaten a consistent policy will require
them to restore the duties on hides, tlax,
hemp, lumber and all other raw mate
rials of American industries. Every
protectionist must recognize that it is
rank inji s.ice to s-iugle out fhe raw ma
terial of the woolen manufacturers and
exempt the rest from taxation. Besides,
as long as anyraw materials remain free
they are object lessons teaching the ben
efits of free trade. While free wool is
openly threatened, all other free law
materials are covertly menaced in the
Republican attacks ou the new tariff.
Should the followers of Governor Mc
Kinley and ex speaker Reed ever be per
mitted to frame another tariff bill they
will slash the free list as it never was
slashed before. The manufacturers and
workitigmen of the country whose ma
terials are wool, ll.ix, hemp, jute, hides,
wood, dye stuffs, i hemieals, etc., cannot
too earnestly consider the inevitable
consequences of a high tariff reaction.
It must be evident to these and to all
other manufacturers that their interest
in maintaining the indus rial price is
bound up with the policy of the Demo
cratic party.
Several Republican contempories,
savs the Harnshurg I'atnot, with the re
sults of the campaign of last year still
buzzing iu their ears, incliue themselves
to believe, that the result of the election
this year is a foregone conclusion that
it was "useless to nominate Democrats,"
and all the rest of the stuff often poured
out before a presumably interested pub
he. Ihere was a time when it was
taken as readily ss arguments, facts and
figures, but that time has departed.
There will never again, in this state.
be a majority given a Republican candi
date like that cast for Hastings last year
It was larger than anybody deemed it
would be, but what of that? It has no
connection with the campaign of this
year. The big majority for the Repub
lican ticket of tast year has done the
people not a particle of good. Not one
promise, indirectly made to the people
last year none being made directly
has been kept, i he Mandard Uii com
pany got from the legislature and the
administration exactly what Democrats
for years prevented it getting. The ap'
portioument which the constitution de
clares shall te made every ten years was
delayed by the present leader of the Re
publican party for reasons which fit in
well with his astigmatic preception of
better politics. The legislative halls
were turned into a market for votes,
where any man could buy any kind of
legislation and where legislation was
bought with the most shameless disre
gard of public decency. The most dis
graceful deals and dickers have been
made on all sides, from high to low, for
pecuniary and political profit ever since
the present administration took up the
cares and emoluments of office.
The majority of last vear indicates
nothing. And if it did, the platform of
Quay would rob it of all its meaning
showing as this does that the party is
need of self-reformation. The people
know wery well that no party will reform
itself. The pecpleniutdo this. Hence
the men who say it was useless to nomi
nrte a Democratic ticket speak hollow
words. Republicans are disgusted with
ihe recent legislature and with the lead
ership which n ade the recent fight for
chairmanships the moet desperate affair
ever known in Pennsylvania jolitics
Without discussing the merits of plat
forms, the chances ought to be favor
able to Democratic nominees this year.
Democrats outside of New York are
deeply interested in the affairs of the
party in that city. Without the electo
ral vote of the Empire State they can
not hope to ekct their candidate for the
presidency. The slat cannot lie car
ried without the full vote of New York
city, and such a vote cannot be availa
ble unless harmonious action and har
monious counsel prevail. IVe have a
right, therefore, to insist that the Dem
ocrats of New York shall not jeopardize
the success of the party by making com
binations with .its enemies upon senti
mental grounds.

Secretary Olnev very naturally declines

nient ouiside of Washington is the rre
quency with which Democratic assem
blages have of late hern adopting resolu
tions in favor of free Cuba, the latest
and most conspicuous instance leiug the
New York state Democratic convention
It was noted also with pleasure that Sen
ator Gray, of Delaware, was instrumen
tal, as their chief counsel, in getting the
Cubans recently arrested near Wilming
tou, Delaware, as filibusters, released.
Of course it was in his capacity as a
lawyer, and not as chairman of the sen
ate committee on foreign relations, that
Senator Gray befriended those Cubans,
but all the same it has. been taken as a
straw indicating much. It is argued
that Senator Gray would not have tie
come the counsel of those Cubans if he
had not personally sympathized with
them, and his relations with President
Cleveland are such that he would hardly
have engaged in the case, even though
his personal svmpathv had been with
the accused men and the cause they
represented, if he had not known the
inclinations of the -administration to
lean the same way. A public meeting
ir. T:lVOT of free Cuba is beintr talked up
in Washington and will probably short
ly be held. Many Democrats hope to
see the administration act before the
matter comes tin iu congress, as it is
certain to do very early in the session
If proof were needed that the Harri
son boom is dead it is furnished by the
frequency with which Republicans of
prominence who come to Washington
uive it a kick. The latest kicking was
administered bv Ex Senator Sabin, of
Minn., who was once chairman of the
Republican national committee. Mr
Sabin says he thinks Harrison ceased to
be a presidential possibility the moment
it was certain that Quay and Piatt would
control the I'ennsflvania and New York
delegations to the Republican national
convention. He also thinks that Reed
is going to have a walkover for the nom
nation, or says he does.
According to those who are usually
posted on inside Republican happenings,
Mr. Foraker of Ohio, has with Governor
McKinley's consent made a direct bid to
win Boss Piatt over to the support of
McKinley's presidential aspirations. It
is well known that Piatt wasiu .lSbS
promised on liehalf of Mr. Harrison that j
he should be secretary of the treasury,
a place that Piatt has been hankering
after for many years, if he would sup
pert Harrison and he was electeil. Air
Harrisou repudiated that promise, claim
ing that it was made without his knowl
edge or consent, and thereby made a
lifetime enemy of Piatt.
Mr. Foraker
has now made the same
promise for
Governor McKinley and has told Mr
Piatt that McKinley would
nake it in person if .Mr. riatt woulu
agree to swing the New York delegation
to McKinley after a complimentary vote
is cast for Governor Morton, who is gen
erally regarded as merely a brevet candi
date for the nomination, roraker wnl
also before he returns to Ohio endeavor
to make a ileal whereby he can secure
the support of Boss Quay for McKinley

mortgage upon both Piatt and Quay
but they are very t'icky individ

of the candidate who offers them the
most.

Ohio now among Democrats. They are

put aside for the pret-ent by Ohio Dem

lay aside every consideration that may
interfere with a lomocratic victory in

immensely popular cry in this country.
The excitenu nt'here over the insurrec

fanned by that large section of the press
that advocates the annexation of Cuba
to Mexico. Trouble may ensue at any
time. The extreme susceptibility of the
Spanish colony here (numbering 10,000
people) to anything touching on Cuban
affairs is played on even by newsboys.
A newsboy sold papers last evening
to a group of Spaniards on the strength
of crying 'Great Battle in Cuba!"
When the Spaniards found 'that the
had been deceived they gave chase to
the bov. A great crowd collected and
hissed the nniiceman who arrested the
lad. The public prosecutor came up
and ordered the boy released on the
grouud that Mexico is a free and demo

right to slo.ut 'Viva Cuba Libre'' or

the work of getting the coal from its

few places in the world where great
quantities of coal are so readily obtain

At Shenandoah a thin crust only of

His Wife Received the Bullets.
Wheeling, September 30. One of the
most sensational tragedies that ever oc
curred in West Virginia is reported
from Braxton county, on the line of the
West Virginia and Iittsburg railroad.
The three principal actors are Thomas
Ilinkle, a prominent and wealthy
young farmer, living a few miles from
Sutton, his wife and J. O. Boon, a
county official.
For some time past Boon had been
paying attention to Mrs. Ilinkle, and
their conduct had become a matter of
gossip among the nei hbors. The talk
at last reached the ears of Mr. Ilinkle.
Last night Ilinkle entered his house
and found the couple there, and imme
diately drew a revolver. Before he
could tire Boon escaped, but Mrs. Ilinkle
received the contents of the gun in her
breast and will die.
Ilinkle mounted a horse, rode to Sut

mings combined with velvet of several
shades. Apropos of colors the blended
cameleon is a popular novelty. Fram
boise or rasberry red, prune!! purple and
scabieuse toirether w ith Dahlia and Per
winkle shades, Prella and Mordore hron
are the Ieadiniz novelties. A new blue is
Bengal. The earliest autumn hats are of
the fancy dark straws. In these new
shades they are trimmed more or less with
rosettes and bows of velvet mingled with
fanciful birds. C roped gauzes are very
fashionable for evening dresses. Very
charming effects are given them by Per
sian coloring. The effect of tucks is seen
in many. Large plaids are used as well as
flowers and polka dots. A novelty for fan
cy evening waists is a mousseline de soie
with charming designs in open work em
broidery; white mousseline de soire is al
most covered with colored embroidered
flowers. A novelty in skirts is a prettv
coat from Louis XVI period. This style
requires a smaller sleeve which is in char
acter with the models of that period, but
for the preser.t large sleeves will continue
to be popular. In the new fashion maga
zines published by A. McDowell t Co, one
sees a large variety ' of the latest styles
which ara introduced for the coming sea
son. In looking over such a collection of
beautiful models comes a desire to h able
to cut and make lliem. The McDowell
schools for dress cutting are the largest
and most practical in the country. In tho
finishing school a dress may tie. cut and
made w bile, learning. The proof of the su
periority of these schools and the method
of cutting which they teach is found in the
fact that the McDowell Drafting Machine
is r.ow acknowledged to be the standard
system of dress cutting. It offers the sim
plest method to learn, the most rapid to
use, and a perfect lit for all forms. This
machine has received the two highest
award at the World's Columbian Exposi
tion as the most perfect in existence.
