The Iron Trade Review savs: The close of 1893 recoraed the lowest rrieca for iron and steel in the his tory oi tne trade. There has been a disposition to think the coming 01 ism would arrest the downward tendency, but evidences are to the contrary. It is known that on ores, offers have been made for the coming: year lower than were touched in 1 8U3 ou standard arrades: in nig iron, the open' ing- of the year brings a report of an offer by a northern furnace, using Lake Superior ores, to sell for deliveries running into the senng at a hgure not The study- of costs is the most serious business brokers have on hand to day, and, while every buyer may be satisfied that what is raw material to him has touched a level that leaves the maker without profit, he knows tnat with greater reductions the market may be still further depressed, and that with foroijrn competition added to that at home, the tendency must be lurtner downward. After MeUo.

At the County Hofplta the physicians said Leigbton would probably recover.

MIlSOfilTY REPORT.
IT IS CLEAR, LOGICAL AND DIS PASSIONATE. It) Statements of the Kvils That Would Follow the Knnct infill of the Wllpon Illll Might Huvr Him Stronger and Yet Truthful. Statement of l'nfln. Tho report of the Democratic majority t; the Ways and Means Committee on tho Wilson bill n obviouslv the work of theorists and fanatics. It was written in defiance of facts and in contempt of the mi.-vrj' and destitution to which the threat of fivo trade ha reduced hundreds of thousands of American voi-kinrmen. Tho report of the Republican minority, which was propared by t x-S eakei- Heed, is an address of a radically ditTcent character. It is based not on theories, but on facts. It champions 1h cause of America, not the interests of Europe. It is an avrnmenl for American wanes, American manhood. American industrial independence and American homes. The minority ie"oi t is clear, logical and dispassionate, says the New York Press. Its language U conservative throughout. In statements of tho evils that would follow tho enactment of the Wilson bill might have been considerably stronger and yot have teen well within the t uth.' Tho roport p dntj out that tho Wilson bill, osten -ibly a rcvonue measure, will cut down the Government revenues by at least $74,00 ,000: that itj transfers the burden of taxation from the shoulders of foreigners io those of our own people, and that in making "raw materials" freo it. deals a fatal blow to some of the most important industries in tho United States. It saya: What fs one mat,' free raw matertal is another man's llnighcd product. The manufacturer in latsQcbusctts is told that he Is to be encouraced by having freo llimhor to bnild his faciorr and to pack hi poods, bat inasmuch as that very lumber thus mado freo Is tho Maine manufacturer's finished product, no wonder the Democrats of Rancor denounce "class losiis'atior," with a new appreciation of what clasp legislation really means. And with tliem sympathize the lumbermen in Wisconsin and Michigan, the Tacilic tilope, Alabama, Oeoruia nnd Florida. The analysis which the report makes of the free list of the proposed bill and of tho effect of the unrestricted admission of foreign wools, iron ore and bituminous coal is opecially able. The Eross injustice of the wool' schedules, not only to the fatmer, who is entitled to full "protection for his pr. duct, but to the manufacturer and Ins employes is plainly brought out. Tho report says: "The terms of the bill are equivalent to an edict from the committee commanding every manufacturer to shut down and keep shutdown until the bill becomes a law, and turning thousands of operatives into the streets." The fraud breeding ad valorem duties with which the Wilffln bill mccks evc.y principle) of justice and fair dealing are ecn loin nod with deserved severity. The minority deBlare: While this bill In Its principle, if it has any, Is not unprotective, it will he absolutely bo lu practice, not only In its direct reductions, but also in its indirect reductions, unre to come iiom the change lrom specific duties to ad valorem. So jrrent have been the object ions In actual American practice to the ad valorem duties that among the uamcs which can be clud against it are some of the most illustrious in American historyHamilton, Hallntiu. Crawford, Webster and Van Hnren, with Buchanan and Panicl Manning. All the experience of Amorican history: all the sound maxims of American statesmanship: all the considerations of prudence, of patriotism, of humanity, demand that tho Wilson measure of folly and iniquity shall be defeated. It is class t nd sectional legislation of the worst tort. Froterding to regard the welfa-e of American industries, it stabs them with the malignity of the cowardly assassin. Kot avowedly a free trade measure, except a to raw n aterials, it strips every industry of protection and exposes every workingman's family to the degradation of beggary. The laborers whom it has already rolilted of work and wages are legion. The families it has already ptuieritocl ate numbered bjr sctn'es i f thou auds. The suffering it has brought about is appalling to every man of humane instincts. The report shows that the Republican members of Congre.-s sympathize deeply wih the peop'e in their distress, and that thty propose to fight the starvation bill with every lesource at thoir command. With the samo dispassionateness which marks tho entire production, it soys: We h.ivo not thought it desirable to make any appeals to passion or to prejudice. Far from tnat.; we have taken thus far no uotlce of the condition of business now. which is terrible, nor of that of the workinRnian, which tieuaars descrii'ttou. In l'.n representative eit:t'S where the number employe-! ex. reds t wo millions and a half of people, fully oue-tht-d. t,y the most conservative oHtlmate, are without employment. Theee are enitaced lu the ii.mtccted industries. Those who are not and who .huuBht they were beyond the touch oi inc tarm, now Know tne o:iu koci dm ail industries are tirobnerous. or none. We will not strive in any way to increase the turmoil which this bin lias already create,!. An end can be put to all this hv the defeat of this hill, and to the accomplishment of this every energy should be bent. In view of the ruin which the Wilson bill lists wrought: of the destruction which it must cause if it should pass: of the misery, the starvation, the debasement which it would spread from the Atlantic to the Pacific, there is only ono course for Republican Congressmen and for Democratic Congressmen who are loyal t: American interests and to the welfare of their eonstit. tents. The policy of ruin must bo blueked. Tho Wilson bill must be defeated. Time Will Ohantre Things Again, The statement of Commissioner Lochreii, on cross-examination before tho committee cn pensions, that the actual saving resulting from investigations for fraud sinee May 1, when his ruling for suspension of ensious ponding investigation for fraud went into ehect, was only $3J,(hO, will be an eye opener to the people of the Nation. Ho admitted that subst-intialiy all of the sM.OiW.OOO elaimel to have been saved by that ruling, consisted of claims that never had been allowed, and never wuld have been allowed. bieanso they would not have been granted a special examination. These facts were made public in Mr. Cannon's speech in the House last Saturday, during a discussion of tho deficiency bill which appvcpi iatos $;0ti,0(i!) for special pension examiners, in which he mr.de a fearless attempt Io incioaro the temperature of tho pension otlico toward tho disabled Union veterans of the country, whilo disclaiming any attack upon tho pension otlico. Livingstone, of (;eoria, and Knloo, of Tennessee, made a vigorous defense of Hoke Smith's administration of the pension office, but no Northern Democratic Congressman dared to open his month during the discussion. Major Laocy.-of Iowa, came gallantly to tho support of the veterans and he made the bail of the House ring with patriotic ioutiments that will be indorsed by all the loyal people" of the Nation who are old onoug'n to remember tho sacrifices made and hardships endured by the heroes who fought treason to its temporary death in J801-fi5. He dofled any Deni ;rat on tho floor of the lieu.-s t; prove that "inure are thousands of fraudulent cases in every neighborhood. '' Nobody replied until Livingstone, of Georgia, arose nnd stated that he knew of one fraudulent ponin ense in his district! Not another instance ' was claimed by any D mocnitic Congressman ill Saturday S discussion.- Pes Moines Hegtster. Cleveland in tlir riilury. The indictment which Senator Hoar, of Ma saeliusi Its uttered against the usurpoi- and filibuster in the White House was c mpo.-ed oi undeniable facts and nnatis-wornble arguments. Senator Hoar piwod by the clearest evidence that the appointment of Hlnunt a : ' iniiiiis iohi'i- in i'awaii with nutliO' it v pn -amount to that of the .Minister i.i the l;i it .1 states ill that ooutttr', nail with power to iU'ect
the forco's of the United Stales at Honolulu, was a usurpation on the part of the President, ont ire !y without constitutional sanction, and a dangerous encronchment upon the authority of tho Senate. "If we submit," declared Mr. Hoar, "to this astounding and unheard of pretension, the authority of the Senate itself over a large part of its constitutional domain is abandoned and gone. Ono of the f ranters of the Constitution, who had more to do than any otLer man with tho com option and creation of the Senate, declared soon after the Constitution Was adopted that he esteemed the provision made for appointments to ofllee to bo a matter of great importance, on which the liberties and safety of the people depended nearly as much a, on legislation. If that was vested in the President alone he might render himself despotic." As Senator Hoar pointed out, if Cleveland's course in the appointment of Paramount Ulonnt is not t; be condemned and repudiated by that body upon whose c Jiistitutiot al powers he trespassed, then the President could establish a lik diplomatic agency in every country on the glob,'. A Temporary Deficit." Confronted as they are with the certainty that their boa ted revenue tariff will reduce the revenues of the government, the free traders are trying to wriggle out of their dilemma by declaring that tho deficit will only continue until foreigners can take advantage of the Witron bill to fio:ul tho American market with Ihrfir goods. The Mugwump Boston Herald calls it "the temporary deficit before imports increase undor revenue dutios." This is a confession that every American workingman will do well to ponder. It means that the advocates of the Wilson bill, confidently anticipate an enormous increase in the imports of foreign products under its operation. Every dollars' worth of additional foreign goods that comes in under the free trade measure is a dollar taken in some form from tho pockets tf American wage earners. Every yard of finished goods imported, every pound of imIiorted "f -eo raw material which can it; produced hero, lessens by so much the market for American labor. Stevens Defense. Ex-Minister Stevens, in his defense of his position in the Hawaiian matter, has not c ulv spiked the guns of Cleveland and Blount but he has shown what was the true American policy of President Harrison and his illustrious secretary of state, James G. Blaine, and has endeared them to the hearts of every truo American. He shows how truly the principles of Washington, Jelforson and Monroe wore carried out and how much greater was the wisdom of tho late administration than of the present one, the only object of which seems to be to undo, to the fullest extent, every action of tho Harrison administration, regardless of the right of tho matter or the principle involved. Poor Mount is truly pictured as the victim of British diplomacy, a stranger in a stranco land, groping in the dark, but with a mission to perform which was all mapped out and which he carried out to the letter, Cleveland Leader. The Work of Farmers. A large majority of the First Congress of tho United States were farmers. Thoy saw the necessity fo:- encouraging and protecting manufacturers, in oi dor that they might be free from servile and dangerous dependence upon foreign nations for their arms, tho implements of farming and other machines needed for their own safety, protection, and independence. They also saw tho necessity for providing a market for crops they had raised, which could bsst be done by building up the home factories and increasing their homo industries. The result was that a protective tariff was passed, and signed by George Washington. July 4, 1789. Subsequently agriculture liecame more extensive a;.d prosperous, commerce increasing with wonderful rapidity. Old industries were renewed and many now ones were established, all branches of domestic t-ado were prosperous, and our revenue soon became sufficient to pay the expenses of government, which it is not now with the fear of fros trade.
Hie I'enple'a Remedy. This country poise-sses the same elements of national wealth which it possessed a year ago. It has the same mills and mines, the same magnificent equipment of indu trial machinery, the same va-st army of skilled and willing workers. Nothing stands in the way of its prosperity but Cleveland ism. Remove tho shadow of freo trade, strike out the enacting clause of the Wilson bill in Congress, and every idle factory will hum with life, every faborer will havo work and wages within thirty days. Workiugmen. you can cheek tho'free-trade crime before it is consummated: you can pre ervo tho homo market; you can defend your own homes from want and degradation, if you will assert the power that belongs to you as American citizens, and demand that tho mon whom you elected to Congress shall defeat the scheme to surrender ytur birthright to European avarice! Kill the starvation wages bill! Downfall of Affrtuulture. The Department of Agriculture has shown our farmers that they have lost nearly $1.0hi.O hj.'kh) undar tho present freo-trado administration, so that they may in a measure be prepared for what is to follow. It appears from recent English statistics that the value of farm products which have boen imported Into England has increased by almost $000, 00;', 0 JO since 1!n5 . in u few of tho loading staple crops; Within the past seven yoars the imreasehas been 44 per cent., while tho increase in population was only 5 p?r cent., thus showing that the downfall of the agricultural industry in a free-trade country is both rapid and complete. A I It tine Criticism. The following criticism of Presideut Cleveland by the New York Tribune is peculiarly just and fitting: The President always professes to have "an eye einele" for morality in public questions. The surplus revenues Involved a question of morale. The tariff he discussed In ls'.u as preeminently a question of morals. Diplomacy he regards as an issue of international morals. It ii remarkable that a party leader who Is so sensitive to what he considers the higher moralities of politics should have the singular habit in argument of assuming that everything that is controversial and in doubt is absolutely indisputable and precisely as he wants to have it. It would be difficult to imagine a more immoral method of discussing public questions. 600,000 Out of Work. The Now York Press has published statistics showing that 600,000 men are out of work in the eities of Now York, Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago and Cincinnati, in certain specified trader only. This does not include tho many more hundreds of thousands who seek work of any kind and are not enrolled as members of t i ado organizations, so that it is safe to say there are fully 1,000,000 out of work in tho citioj named, and judging by our recent industrial census this is likely to bo an undeie -timato. The 'OhanBO" I Now. Hradsl reefs says that returns from 110 important eities indicate that Tbe total number of employes in tudustrial ami other lines out of work at this time irom nil miiis, ,s tuuetber with the total number nf people directly dependent for support upon those so rendered idls, is nearly :i,ho,o u.

StomachLivep Cure The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. . It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Nervine Tonio has only recently been introduced Into this country by tho proprietors and manufacturers of tho Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who havo not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of tho greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its g?t curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthener of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching tho critical period known as change in life, should not fail to uso this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthencr and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life.

All these and many other complaints cured by this wonderful Nervine Tonic NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every clrss of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of ail the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all
the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair
the wear our present mode ot living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied.
This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de
