GEN. GRVNT'S 10MB.
To-day Is the seventy-fifth anniversary of
the birth of General Urant, and iu lienor of
the great soldier statesman the maguiilcent
mausoleum erected in liivcrsido Patk, New
York city, was dedicated to his memory with
spleudid pomp and impressive eeicmony. An
elaborate program marked the day's pro
ceedings, iu which high ollicialsof the states
mid the niitiuu participated. The men most
prominent in the affairs of to-day as well ns
those survivors of the silent leader who wero
in the forefront when he was winning fame
aud honor wcio there to puy lilui spokeu
tribute.
Nearly a score of years ago, when General
and Mrs. Grant wero iu Kurope, they visited
together tho tomb of Isabella aud Ferdinand.
Tho sight of that royal couple who had hecu
sleeping thoro side by sido in poaco for cen
turies appealed to tho usually practical and
unsentimental soldier. Turning to his wife.
he said tenderly: "Julia, this is tho way we
should rost iu doath." Years afterward,
when death had claimed tho groat general
and his body had becu brought down from
Mount Qregor to New York city, where it
passed through miles of solidly packed
mourners, there oaiuo requests from different
parti of tho country for tho honor of pro
viding a last resting rlaee, aud New York
was selected by Mrs. Grant.
Time and again the work on tho tomb was
suspended, aud tho dedication postponed
from year to year. But now the beautiful
Doric mausoleum is practically complete.
Only the finishing touches, such as placing
the groups of statuary aud puttiug tho last
strokes to the interior, rcmaiu to bo done.
"It has been worth waiting for" will doubt
less be the verdict of the thousands who saw
it for the first time to-day.
BRUMM ON THE TARIFF.
In the Philadelphia Ledger of the 23d
inst., we notice a communication from lion.
Charles N. Brumm, iu which our Congress
man corrects the Ledger iu sotuo misleading
statement it made iu an editorial article
beaiing ou tho duties of hides and wool.
Mr. Urumm says the article In question
"buries a great error under a. great truth."
The error is made iu "assuming that all duties
must necessarily raise the price of the article
upon which they are levied. This is true
when they are loviod for revenue only;
whereas, when a duty is levied as a protec
tive tariff (which, of course, also produces
revenue), the article upon which it is levied
is in the long run reduced in price. In other
words, a duty so levied that it will raie tho
price of the commodity is not a protective
duty, but ix in every instance a revenue duty
only. Moreover, a protective duty roust
always be paid by the producer, while u
reveuue duty must 'always be paid by the
consumer."
"The cost of the productiou.of an aitic!e,"
continues Mr. lirumiu, "is nut the only factor
in regulating price. In fact, it is only
factor up to the lowest point of competition,
which is the amount it will cost the most
favored competitor to deliver the article at
point of competition. That, of course, in
cludes the duty as well as the freight on the
Hame. Whenever the price gets above that
point, then it is regulated entirely by supply
and demand. This, again, illustrates how
protection in the loug run reduce prices,
although it may not reduce cost. Therefore
dutiet, should be levied so as only to enable
the American producer to get into fair and
healthy competition witU the I'm sign pro
ducers who have the advantage of cheaper
labor and natural conditions."
In speaking of the tariff on wool, while ad
mitting that it would for a slwwt time in
ciease the price to the consumer, Mr. Brumal
argues that "if a duty ou wool U levied ouly
juftlcient to protect our farmer against fluct
uations and speculations of the foreign wool
grower aud dealer.lt will ensure stability,
stimulate the production of wool in this
country, and so enlarge the world's product
of wool that the price of wool will be le
dueed to the lowest point of coat of produc
tion in the moat favored localities, plus ouly
transportation and the healthy protective
duty. Iu other words. It will deprive the
foreign produeer of Uia abnormal profits, mid
make him appropriate tbem to the payment
of the protective duties that we levy."
"A duty on hides, however, will raise tho
prue of hides and leather aud all ita pro-,
driCti befallM a ddly on hides wilt not stimu
late the production of hided, and therefore,
wilt not enlarge the world's product, and not
adding to the supply, nordotracrlng from the
demand, the price will be raised to the full
extent of the duty.
'The farmer who raises the cattle hardly
butchers more than one or two of the oxen iu
a year for himself, ttnr rest he sells, which
shows the fallacy of this cry in favor of pro
tecting the farmer by placing a duty on
hides, and, if this duty will not increase the
production of hides, it will niiikc the 70,00ft
000 people who use leather pay more for It,
and tho Abattoir Trust and monopoly get all
the benefit of it. A duty on wool, however,
will give the farmer who raiws tho sheep the
benefit of it, because wool isan oldect of an
industry and not an incident; the farmer
does his own clipping, sells his own woo),
slid the wool is the most valuable portion of
sheep raising, while the meat and pelt are of
leaser value, though even they are nut so
much of a mere incident to wool as the hides
are to cattle."

Harrisburg, April" S7. The bill to
compel the payment of Interest on
itate depoIU has given the members
ot both houaea oonslderabl concern,
but the house has named the bill al
most unanimously. It In reallaed that
Itn defeat means the development of
great Indignation among the people.
There la a disposition manifested In
the senate to amend it so as to restrict
tho number of depositories and limit
them to the cities. This will raise a
howl throughout the country district.
The country members feel that coun
try banks' have certainly a right to
their share of the state funds if they
can give the necessary bond. There
seems to be an influence at work, how
ever, to prevent this bill from being
enacted Into a law. It will be very
Impolitic for those who oppose it, as
there seems to be no question that the
people are so concerned In. A bill
which has been suggested of naming
eIx banks will by no means be satis
factory to the people, because this
would have a tendency to con. etratlon,
which Is too muoh the case under pres
ent conditions.
The passage of the Hamilton road
bill on second reading in the house by
a good mnjority shows the strength
the supporters of this measure have,
and that it is certain to become a law
as far as the house Is concerned is
already assured. This bill provoked
more wrangling than any that has
come before this body In years. Every
section Wilts attacked, and an effort
made to amend In such a way as to
make the bill of no value whatever,
hut these were voted down, and with
comparatively few changes the bill
was passed. Several members who
were so bitter against this hill have
been antagonistic to a number that
have come before the house this ses
sion, and have Just awakened to the
realisation that they have measures
they are very anxious to have enacted
into laws, and that their course will
have a tendency to give them no little
trouble when they come to pass upon
their measures. It is thought this In
fluence Is so marked that it will have a
bearing on the passage of thffroad bill
with a good sized majority, as well aB
others they have been antagonistic to.
Nowhere is selfishness so despised and
condemned as In a body of lawmakers
This was very manifest while the
Hamilton road bill was under discus
sion. Tho New Ilnllroud Hill.
The governor has approved of the
new railroad bill which requires cor
poratlons to report to the bureau of
railroads. This is a measure of very
great importance. It requires all rail
roads, canals, telegraph and telephone
companies doing business in or partly
In Pennsylvania, or whether foreign
corporations owning, leasing or con
trolling railroads in the common
wealth, to report to this department
of the state. This new law brlngB tho
Baltimore and Ohio, the New York
Central and Hudson Itlver railroads
and the New Jersey Central under the
control of tho secretary of Internal af
fairs. The time of reporting Is changed
to June 30, Instead of May 31, as here
tofore.
Among the bills passed finally was
the state fish commission bill amend
ing the act of May 4, 1889, to extend
the peiiod of limitation of Hens for tax
es entered of record for threo years;
authorizing the county commissioners
to rebuild bridges on sites owned by
corporations over streams or rivers
forming the boundary lines between
counties where they have been destroy
ed by Ice, Hood or otherwise which may
have been abandoned by the own
ers, and rebuild on another site, which
bridges wore used for vehicles or foot
purposes exclusively, and provide for
the cost of their construction; allowing
licensed dealers and their employes
to give testimony in cases relating to
the furnishing of intoxicating liquors
to minors; authorizing state nanus to
pay Interest on demand deposits; per
mltting school directors the authority
to grant the use of public school houses
for Sabbath school or religious services;
for the preservation of forests, . and
partially relieving forest lands from
taxes; to prevent the adulteration, al
teration and substitution of drugs and
medicinal preparations, and to pro
hlblt the adulteration or coloring ot
milk by the addition of so-called pre-
servallnes or coloring matters.
The obnoxious pool racing bill, which
licenses pool selling, and which Is an
effort to transfer the Iniquities that In
tested New Jersey for several years to
this state, has passed the senate, and
the members of that body who favored
Its passage are somewhat concerned
as to how they are to explain to thel
constituents their reasons for aiding
In Its being put through. It Is being
pushed along by Its friends in the
house, but If the temper of the house
continues as has been characteristic
during the session the bill Is destined
to meet with overwhelming defeat. It
would be a disgrace to the state
Pennsylvania to have such a law
placed upon the statutes. All the
friends of morality and law and order
should protest earnestly against its
passage.
An Uxoellent Menmire Defeated,
A very excellent and Important bill
met with defeat recently, and surely it
was a mistake in the opponents of this
measure. This was introduced by Mr
Baldwin, of Delaware, who champion
ed its passage ably and forcibly. The
bill nrovldes that all. collcles ot Hie in
surance snail contain in piain rUrures
the guaranteed amounts of the cash
value of each policy at the end of each
year, and that the policy shall become
a paid up policy tor the amount that
the reserve would purchase on the
lapse of the third future premium
and it further provides that upon any
anniversary of a policy, or within 80
days thereafter, the holders shall have
the right to demand and receive the
amount of the reserve In cash. This
measure, had it become a law, would
have confined Insurance companies to
the payment of certain sums at the
end of each year In the event of
lapse of any liollcy, and prevented In
surance agents from misleading policy
holders In their estimate of the cash
value ot policies each year in the
event of a lapse. The house of repre
sentatlves has certainly committed a
great error In' ttefeAtlnC tflf paMag4 Ot
this bill.
There ftfe Insurance bills that have
been , Introduced that are deserving of
defeat, however, and the one to enable
"trust companies to transact insurance
Is one of them. There should be an
end put to the attempt to clothe cor
porations with power to do an omnibus
business, and which are Intended to
confer enormous powers and wholesale
franchises upon large concerns In tills
state. Although there have been
amendments made to this bill to meet
the various objections, It Is now Ident
ically the same as originally Intended.
It would require the most powerful
X-ray to discover any essential dif
ference In the measure as amended
from that first Introduced. The ver
biage has been very artfully changed,
and on the whole there Is a distinction
without a difference.
The passage of the libel law In the
senate without a single dissenting vote
is an evidence that it has been carefully
and Judiciously framed, and its pro
visions are such as to commend them
to all fair minded men. This art on tho
part of the senate shows that at least
a portion of our lawmakers are mani
festing a disposition to be fair and
rational. The bill in Its present shape,
and ns passed by the senate, whllu
fortifying the security of the public,
when it Is needed, gives protection
to Journalism at such points as cannot
fall to be recognised as altogether fair
and reasonable. It Is to be hoped the
house will be disposed to extend fair
ness and Justice And accept the bill as
passed by the senate, and also pass
it finally.
An IiivoHtlKiitlnir LcKlslntiiro.
The present legislature will be noted
for Its many Investigations. The ap
pointment of Senators Qobln, Durham
and Hardenberg by the senate to In
vestigate -the charges that $50,000 had
been raised to defeat the bill to abolish
child Insurance In the state Is an evi
dence that there Is a disposition in
this body to clear them of the charges
made against .them. Speaker Boyer
has not appointed a house commltteo
to Investigate this scandal. This body
Is becoming tired of Investigation, and
not likely to take any notice of It.
Those who have been on tho floor of
the house cr senate know very well
that there Is no truth In these charges.
Lobbyists of any kind are Conspic
uously absent from the city. The In
dependent spirit that prevails on the
various questions submitted leaves
them without any Influence to effect
special legislation at this session. The
legislature, however, has compiled with
the request of the Inspectors of the
Eastern penitentiary for an Investiga
tion of their institution, and tho exam
ination into the affairs ot this Institu
tion will be acted upon promptly. In
order to have the report ready by May
5. This Is quick work, but It Is thought
it can be accomplished properly In that
time.
Hon. A. Louden Snowden, ex-minis
ter to Greece, Servia and Iloumanla,
lectured In the house of representatives
recently. His subject was the war be
tween Greece and Turkey. The elo
quent diplomat described the causes
which have led up to the present con
flict. IIIb description of the patriot-
Ism of the Inhabitants of Greece, and
their eagerness to take up arms against
a power that was Instrumental in the
massacre of 100,000 persons, was so im
pressive that It put a blush of shame
on his hearers to think that at the
same time the Christian nations stood
sentinels around tho infamous
Turk. Mr. Snowden said all these dia
bolical acts wero allowed In order to
satisfy a spirit of selfishness, fear,
Jealousy and the greed of power for a
few of the surrounding nations. The
subject was handled In a most able
manner.
Alilo Women Advocntos.
The superior arguments put forth
by a delegation representing the Wom
an's Suffrage association of Pennsyl
vania. who held a meeting recently in
the hall of the house ot representatives,
and the excellent Impression they made
will no doubt be greatly In their favor
respecting the legislation they desire,
The bill they are specially Interested
In relates to the descent and distribu
tion of estates of Intestates. The bill
Is now in the hands of tho Judiciary
general committee, which saw fit to
negative the measure. It has not been
acted upon by the senate. The pres
ence of these ladles, armed with such
ablo argument in favor of their bill,
made a very strong Impression on the
minds of the members. Their efforts
will be repaid, as there Is a very strong
sentiment developing that their dp
mands should be heeded. Their lec
turer on the subject of woman's suff
rage undoubtedly greatly Impressed
the mombers present with the Justice
of what they are striving for, and
which, once extended to them, as they
claim, will have a tendency to uplift
the race to a higher plane of morality
and Intelligence. Their meeting was
made the. more interesting owing to
the presence of a choir of young Indian
women from the Carlisle Indian school
who sang with excellent effect several
very choice selections.
At the last meeting of the caplfol
building commission It was decided to
select six architects of reputation, who
are to-receive from $500 to $1,000 each
to py their expenses. These are to
enter Into open competition In order
to assure a representation of the high
est grade of architectural talent. If
any of these win the prize the sum
paid for his preliminary studies 1b to
be deducted from his commission
These architects will name one of the
Jury of three which will decide the
prize winner. Thirteen weeks are al
lowed architects to prepare their de
signs, and a contract for the erection
of the building will, it is thought, be
awarded about Aug. 1. There has been
no decision made in reference to the
material to be used, and the architects
will have the privilege to suggest that
which they think is bet.tor the work'
ng out of their plans.

"The enemy Is

When a wise man re

reasonable incaiS to

Disease would almost nev

man if he was prepared to

ral precautions dictated by common sense.
When a man s sioinacn nnu nvcr get up
set and fall lo do their regular work, he can
be certain that something worse is bound lo
follow, If he doesn'rlook out for himself
Headaches, indigestion, biliousness and
constipation are simply Nature's warnings
that the enemy of serious disease is coming
to attack him.
The sensible thing to do is to imtuedl
itely fortify the system with Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. It vitalises and
invigorates the entire constitution. It helps
the fiver to filter out all bilious impurities.
It gives the digestive and nutritive oigaus
poiver to extract nourishment from the food
and turn It into rich, red, healthy blood. It
creates appetite, gcjd digestion, and solid,
muscular strength.
It is far superior to the mere temporary
stimulus of malt-extracts. It is better than
cod liver oil emulsions because it is assimi
lated by the weakest stomach.
" Aliont fifiecn yesrs ago " writes Mr. John Mc
Mlchsel, editor of tli Plnttaburg, (Mo.) l.ed-.r,
', I was in very poor health, had no appetite, was
luxgiah, and so lifeless it seemed Impossible for
me to do anything that required effort. Kvery fall
and spring this ill-heslth seemed to affect me par
ticularly. A friend advised me to u Dr. Pierce';
Oolden'Medical Discovery a wrtlng that It would
restore me to perfect health, and make 'a new
man ' of me. Finally he Induced me to try the
medicine. 1 weighed at the time about im lbs.
I ud several bottles, and upon quitting It
n eighed 175 lbs. Since that time my weight has
varied from this to 193 pounds.
A sure and permanent cure for constipa
tion is Dr. Pierce's Pellets. One "Pellet"

Atliintn'ri Looted name;'
Atlanta, April 27. Harry A. Cassln,
the cashier of the Georgia Savings,
Loan and Banking company, who con
fessed to being a defaulter to the ex
tent of $45,000, and whose friends had
agreed to pay up the shortage to keep
him out of Jail, is today behind the
bars of Fulton prison. At a meeting
of the board of directors ot the Insti
tution yesterday It was discovered that
the bank, which, was supposed to be
one of the most prosperous In the
state, had barely a cent's worth of as
sets. Instead of the shortage being
S1S.000 it will be several times that
sum, and Instead ot young Cassln be
ing the bearer of the entire guilt It is
now believed -that at least one other
conspicuous official will soon share a
cell with him.
Thirty years is a long time to fight so
paintul a trouble as piles, but Jacob Mitchell,
of Uuiouville, I'a., struggled that long be

Ottumwa, la., Asrll 27. The Deo
Moines river, which Sunday midnight
was stationary at the high water
mark established by the Rreat Hood
of 1832, suddenly began to climb, and
by S o'clock yesterday had added IS
Inches to the record. The levees broku
In many places, railroad embankments
were undermined and hundreds o!
families Wero compelled to leave their
residences in haste. In Ottumwa over
300 families were compelled to move,
a large number making their escapn
in boats.
At Eddyvlllo, 13 miles north of thli
city, 160 families vacated their domi
ciles, and the principal streets are be
ing navigated In rowboats.
At South Ottumwa the river flowi
parallel with the main street. It broke
across this street yesterday and poured
down the business and residence
Btreets, causing a panlo and a scramble
for higher ground. Five thousand peo
ple reside In this suburb. Several hun
dred deserted their residences and re
moved their goods. The water standi
four feet deep in Falrvlew.
A large reservoir situated In thi
summit ot Court Hill is the source
of considerable tear. Tho recent down
pour has swollen the sources of supply
and the reservoir Is now so full that
it threatens to burst and flood the pop
ulous districts below.
Although the railroad companies
have made strenuous efforts to save
their property, traffic Is almost at a
'standstill. AH the small streams In
southern Iowa are out of their banks.
Jtallroad bridges ore gone and travel
by highway is out of the question. The
Burlington main line between Chicago
and Denver Is cut in two by five miles
of Inundated track. The Itock Island
also has live miles of track under
water west of here. The Milwaukee
and St. Paul roundhouse and yards are
under water, and part ot one approach
to their bridge has been washed away.
The Chicago Great Western line Is en
tirely shut off. So Is the Iowa Cen
tral. The Wabash still haB entranco
from the south, but Is shut off, on tho
north end.
"Work on the levees before this city
has been progressing since last Friday,
but the sudden rise yesterday destroy
ed a great part of what has been ac
complished. Large forces are employed
In an endeavor to prevent further
breaks.
The suburbs have so for been tho
worst sufferers aside from the rail
roads. West Ottumwa, a large resi
dence section, Is entirely flooded, and
the water is still rising. The Inhabi
tants cling to their homos, however,
hoping that the worst Is over.
Itlch farming lands above and below
the city are Inundated. The flood thoro
has not reached a high stage, but han
spread out In many plp.ces to a width
of Ave or six miles. No loss of life has
been reported, but the damage to prop
erty will he very large.
