THE PEOPLE’S PARTY. James B. Wearer, of Iowa, and James G. Field, of Virginia. The Nominees foe president and VicePresident of the United States Respectively—The Preamble and Platform. I Omaha, Neb., July 4.—Although * o'clock was the hour set for the opening of the morning session Of the national convention of the people's party, It was 8:45 before enough members had arrived to warrant the calling of the roil to ascertain whether or not a quorum was, present, and 9 o’clock before partial order had been secured. The credentials committee reported no contests. The committee on permanent organization made its report as follows: ‘'Your committc on permanent organization beg leave to submit the following report: For permanent chairman, H. L. Houcks, South Dakota. [Prolonged applause.] For permanent secretary, J. »V. Hayes, New Jersey. [Applause.] For assistant secretaries, S. S. King, of Kansas; George Wilson, of Michigan; G. W. Denmark, of JlOuth Carolina, and D. W. Monroe,-> j Following this was also a long'list of vice chairmen, each state being represented in the distribution of this honor, The report was unanimously adopted amid applause, and Temporary Chairman Ellington at once introduced his successor. a The new chairman made a lengthy address. Gen. Armstrong followed With a twenty-minute speech. . The report of the committee on rules wan « »wl n,U«4/,il

H. F. Taubeneck, of Illinois^ Was recognized and said that lit t0'.30 o’clock the Omaha Fourth of July parade Would be passing the convention, Und he was about to propose a recess when a delegate interrupted with the statement that they should keep on with their business. Taubeneck nevertheless moved a recess for twenty minutes lor the parade, and Col. Norton said thafit was a courtesy due to the citizens of Omaha. It was carried hy a decided majority. The roll of states was called and each state sent np the name of its member of the national committee. A resolution ottered to request the Union Pacific to extend the usual courtesy of half-fare rates to members traveling over its lines, met with such a vehement protest from those who had been refused the reduction that the resolution was rejected and a motion adopted to appeal to the interstate commerce commission in the matter. A rewss was then taken until ‘1! p. m. AFTERNOON SESSION. I At the afternoon session a telegram was read announcing that the republican delegation from Wellington, county, Kas., had gone to the congressional convention with a certain candidate who was defeated and on ■(Reir return the delegation put on badges of the people’s party candidate. The announcement was greeted with loud cheers. But the most dramatic Incident of the day and one so overpowering in its intensity as to be scarcely describable in the English language was yet to corao. Representative Taubeneck advanced waving a telegram in his hand. li e announced' to one of his neighbors ■“Gresham will accept.’’ The word gradually passed aroqnd the hall anti the wild excitement was renewed. Finally Taubeneck said the message was from Dr. Houser, people’s candidate for lieutenant-governor of Indiana, and read: “I have just seen Gresham. If unanimous he will not decline.” For fifteen minutes thereafter the convention was utterly beyond the control of the chair.

piaj ■tot ern if 6«n. James 7A 1fester. A counter demonstration was attempted by Brown, of Massachusetts, a Weaver leader, who said he had a letter from President Page of the Virginia alliance, stating that his name might go before the convention, and that after a full and free consideration he would abide by the result. “This is just a little better than Mr. Gresham, who wants it unanimously," he added. This was greeted with a storm of hisses. Finally Brown apologized to Taubeneck, and the convention agreed that all should have a fair show. Taubeneek moved that the convention adjourn until 8 o'clock und Brown, with a view of trying conclusions with the enemy, moved to make it half-pa st •even. Once again the convention lost control of itself and for a brief period bedlam reigned. On a viva voce vote Brown’s amendment was defeated and Taubencck’s motion fixing the hour for reassembling was adopted by a large majority. At 5 o’clock recess was accordingly ordered. NIGHT SESSION. ' It was 8:80 when the third session of the day was called to order. Numerous hurried conferences were held to consider the feasibility of concentrating upon Senator Kyle, but the chairman cat them short by insisting that every delegate should get into his or her seat. At 8:40, Branch, at Georgia, appeared with the supplementary report of the committee on platform. To the plank regarding a free count, a southern delegate in the rear of the hall, loved that it bo tabled on the ground t it was but a rehash of the declarations in the platforms of the two old parties. By an overwhelming majority the convention decided to let it stay in, and the reading was resumed. Hearty applause was given ths resolution regarding standing armies, the referendum, and the limits of the terms of the presidency. When the reading was finished Chairman Loucks put the motion on the adoption of the report, although a number of delegates demanded to be heard. Qniet waa secured by Hvgh Cnvanagh, at the executive board of the Knights of Labor, who reported this resolution in ilHi

presaion to refuse to pttrthA?ft VhA goo is male by the said msnUfne tftrcrs or to patronize any merchant who sells such goods. Over an hour was consumed in die

It Was 9:40 when the regulai4fcdet qf business, that of nailing tbd- Pdll of states for nomination of candidates for the presidency Was reached. When Alabama was called E. C. Manning, of that state, in a speech that was very imperfectly understood owing to his distance from the platform, named Gen. J. B. Weaver of toWA. Colorado yielded her priy liege, td tjffl; S. P. Norton, of iiiinqtk ftb said that his candidate hdA already won his spurs. It* IdttlUed up like a giant. He belonged to no faction. Everybody could vote for him, no one could say an unkind word about him. Let the old guard hold the fort, and let the new guard'carry the banner. He wftstttUatt so great that no big hat of an aiiceslof could hide him from vieVy; Whosti brains are not measured by the size of his waist. {Great laughter and applause.] Cot. Noil-ton concluded with a long Chlogy of Independence hall by naming Senator'3. S. Kyle, of South Dakota. The name was received with slight applause, and three cheers were called for and faintly responded to. Connecticut through Delegate Iltlldwin, placed in nomination Uep. Melds, of Virginia. llftrvey, Of Florida,, seconded Weaver's nomination and Wimberly, of tieoCgia, supported that of Kyle.

V. II. I'mi U'Uh, S. H. Tiashor, pastor of the Progressive chn^eh at Milledgevilie* took the. platform and in a tWettty-iUidules speech, repeatedly intcViniJJted by cries of time, nominated in behalf of a portion of the Illinois delegation, Senator C. 11. VanWyck, of Nebraska. As fast as each delegation was called some one delegate claimed the right to male* the fifteen-minute speech allowed by the rules, and the talk promised to last until daylight. At last the weary found of speech*! making came to an end and the balloting for the nominee for president commenced, the result of the first ballot being announced at 12:55 a. m., as follows: Weaver, <.>05; Kyle, 875; scattering, 2. The nomination of \Veaver\was nftido unanimous, \ The nominations for vice-president being declared in order, James (>. Field, of Virginia, an ex-confedcrate, and Hen. Terrill, of Terms, were named. The ballot resulted; Field. 7;iS: Terrill, 554. The candidates were introduced and briefly thanked the convention, and at 8 o’clock a. m. the convention adjourned sine die. Omaha, Neb., July 5.-*The following are the preamble* platform and resolutions adopted by the people’s party convention:

The Platform. Assembled upon the ono hundred and sixteenth anniversary of th» Declaration of Independence, the people's pftrty of America, ih their first national convention; iilvOkmg upon thoirnction the blessing of Almighty Ch>d, puts forth, in tha name and on behalf of the psoplo Of this 'country, the following preamble and declaration of principles: The conditions which surround us bnsl; justify our co-operation. Wo moot in the midst of a nation brought to tho verge of uldral, political and material ruin-. Corruption dominates vhe ballot box-* the legislatures, t ho congress; and toticheb oven tfco ermine of tho bench. Tho D'Ople aro demoralized; most of tho states have been eompeled to isolato tho voters at tho polling places to prevent universal in tiraidation or bribery. Tho newspapers are largely subsilizod <r muzsbd; public opinion silenced; business prostrated; our homos covered with mortgages; labor Impoverished* anil tho land concentrating in tho hands of tho capitalists. Tho Urban Workmen are denied the right of orgrtuii itiou for selfprotection; imported pauperized labor boats down their wages; a hireling standing army, UnVeeoguizod by our laws, is established to shoot them down; and they aro rapidly degenerating into European conditions; tho fruits of the toil of millions are boldly stolen to build u > colossal forUmes for a few, unprecedented in tho^ history of mankind; and the possessors of these<c*n time, despiss the republic and endanger liberty. From tho same prolific womb of governmental injustice wo brood * tho two groat classes—tramps and millionaires. Tho national power to create money in appropriated to enrich bondholders; a vast public debt, payabl» in legal tender currency, has been refunded into gold-b'ariug bonds, thereby adding millions to tho burdens of the people. Silver, which has been accepted an coin eiuco the dawn of history., has been demonetized to add to the purchasing power of gold by decreasing the value ot all forms of property as well as human labor; and the supply of currency is purposely abridged to fatten usuipera, bankrupt ont rprise and enslave industry. A vast conspiracy against mankind has besn organized in two continents, and it is rapidly taking possession of the world. If not met and ove; thrown at once it forlxxles terrible social convulsions, the destruction of civilization, or the establishment of an absolute despotism. We have witnessed for more than a quarter of a century the struggles of the two great political parties for power and plunder, while grievous wrongs have been inflicted upon the suffering people. We charge that the controlling influences dominating both these parties have permitted the existing dreadful conditions to develop without sorious effort to rojprove or restrain them. Neither do they now promise us any substantial reform. They have agreed together to ignore, in tho coming campaign, every issue but one. They propose to drown the outcries of a plundered people with tire uproar of a sham-bnttlo over the tariff, .«o that capitalists, corporations, national banks, ring"', trust'', watered stock, tho demonetization of silver and the oppressions of the usurers raay all Ire lost sigh! o?. The. propose to Kacriftcs^our homes, live* and children on the alter of Mammon; to destroy the multitude in order to secure corruption funds from the millionaires. Assembled on the anniversary of the birthday of the nation and filled with the spirit of tho grand generation who established our independence, we seek to restore the government of the republic to tho hands of "the plain people” with whose class it originated, We assert our purposes to bo identical with th* purposes of tho national constitution: “To form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic trauquilltt/, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blearing* of liberty for ouranl our posterity.” Wo declare that uublic can only endure as a free gc built upon tho, love of ' read otv^r and for the , rta icrt tcaitlnr with bnycmeU; tl

We pledge ourselves that if given power we will labor to correct these evils by wise and reasonable legislation in acoorJane* with the terms of our platform. Wo bellevo that the powers of government” In other words, of the peOple--shoUid be ef * ponded, (as In the case Of the jioStat service) a? rapidly and as far hs the, good sedse ,qf an ifitelllgenV People ’Aid rfip teaching^ of eiperieng^ Vrtll Jftstify-, tp the And that oppression, InJogHqe jhu poVerty shall.qyefituiily.cea3s in the land, While'opr,sympathies a,s a party of reform are naturally upon the side of every proposition which will .tend to . make mep Intelligent, v|rtoons and temperate, wq nevertheless regard these questions—importgut^ as they ., are—as secondary to tpo great Issues now pressing , fer solution, and upon which pet only onr individnal prosperity but the very existence of free institutions depend; and we ask all men to first help ns to determine whether we are to have a republic to administer, before W6 differ as to the conditions SpUd.which it is to b i aImiu istsrod. BelieVing that the forces of roform this day organized will never' cease to move forward until every wrong is remedied, and equal rights and equal privileges are securely established for all the men and women of this country; we declare therefore, First. That the union of the labor forces of the Unit- d States this day OopsUmipated shall be permanent and pui'prldAi; may its spirit bhtet filtn All hearts for the salvation of the republic and the uplifting of mankind. Second, wealth belongs to him who creates It, aud every dollar taken from industr -, without an equivalent is robbery. "If any will not work neither shall he eat.” The interests of rural and civic labor are the same; their enemies are identical. Third. Wo believe that the time has come when the railroad corporations Will either own the people or the people tatiSt otVn tho railroads; and should, the government enter upon the Work 'of owning and managing any or all jrAiltoads, we should favor an amendment to the constitution by which all persons engaged in the government service shall be placed under a civil service regulation of the most rigid charac'er so as to prevent the increaso of the power of the national administration by the U8S of snch additional govomment employes. We demand a national currency, safe, sound and flexib’e. Issued by the general government only; nlegil ton ler for all dobts. public and private, without tho use df banking cafpordtionst a Just, eqfiitabie and em dent incans of distribution direct to the people, at a tax not to exceed 2 per cent, per annum, to bs provided ns set forth in the suhtroa-ury plan of ttas Farmer's Alliance or some better system; also by payments in discharge of its obligations for improvements. Wo demand tho free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 16 to 1. Wo demand that the amount of the circulating medium be sppodily increased to not leS3 than $50 per capita. Wo demand a graduated income tni; We beliefs that MM ifioeioyd of the cbUntry should bo fcpfttnA much as possible iu the hands of the people, and hence we demand that ail national an 1 state revenue* shall bo limited to tho necessary expenses of the government, economically and honestly administered. We demand that postal savings hanks bo es tablished by the government for tho safe deposit of the earnings of the people and to facilitate oxebauge. Transportation being a means ol exchange and a public necessity, the government should own and operate tho railroads in the Interest of the people. The telegraph and telephone, like tho postofilco system, being a necessity for the transmission of neWs, should l)e oWnod add operated by the government ill the interest of the people. The iAnd. including all the natural sources of wealth, Is tbs heritage- of all the people and should not bs monopolized for speculative purposes; And alien ownership of land should bn prohibited. All lands now li,ld- by railroads and other corporation, ja excess of their actual needs and all lauds now owned by aliens should be reclaimed by tho govoramsat and held for actual settlers only. After submitting tlie foregoing' the committee on resolutions held another meeting and unanimously agreed to report the following to the convention at the night session: Whereas, Other questions have been presented for Our consideration, wo hereby submit tho following, not as a part of ths platform of tbep'ople's party, but as resolutions expressive of the sentiment of this convention. 1. resolved, That we demand a free ballot and a fair count in ail elections, and pledge ourselves to secure it to every legal voter without federal intervention through the adoption by the states of the unpervertod Australian or secret ballot system. 2. Vceolvvd, That the revenue derived from a graduated ificome tax should be applied, to the reduction of the burden of taxation note resting upon tbo domestic industries ot this country 3. Ilf solved, That we pledge our support to fair and libera! pensions to ex-union soldiers and sailers. 4. Ilesolved, That we condemn the fallacy of protecting American labor under the pres ;nt system, which opens our ports to tho panper and criminal classes of tho world, and crowds out our wage-earners; and we denouno ■ tho present ineffective laws against contract labor, and domand tho further restriction of undesirable immigration. 5 Unsolved, That Wo Bohlially sympathize With the efforts df. organized, Worknim. to shorten the hours df labor; aud demand a rigid enforcement of tho existing eight-hour law on government work, and ask that a penalty clauso bo add'd to the said law. 6. lit solved, That we regard the maintenance of n large standing army of mercenaries, known as tho Pinkerton systom, as a menace to onr liberties, and we demand its abolition; and we condemn the recent invasion of the territory of Wyoming by tho hire! assassins of plutocracy, assi ited by federal officials. 7. dissolved. That we commend to the favorable consideration of tho people and the reform press the legislative system known as the Initiative and referendum. 8.

A Corean,Amusement Thai is. .More Darigeroiis Than Football.. , The Cdreiln correspondent of a Japan paper (fives an account of a enrious popular practice in Corea,. Kite flying1; whicli is universal, in that country, ceases suddenly oh the 15th of the first Corean month, and the next day stone fights take its .place as the chief public amusement. In the eastern part of Seoul, the capital) there dre large opeil Spaces that have not been built upon, and here occur the most serious and interesting fights. One section of the city is pitted against another, but anyone can take a hand on either side at pleasure. There are no recognized leaders, but the mass of fighters readily follow the lend of tttiyofle Who shoiVs hiinseli to he a little more reckless than the rest. Two mobs, consisting of fifty, seventy or a hundred men each, are drawn up against each other, with an interval of perhaps fifty yards between them. There is an incessant shower of stones, and each man’s business is to hit as many men as he can,and especially to avoid all the stoneB directed at liirti. From teil tp twenty men on each side are armed with stout clubs, and wear thick wadded helmets. These form the skirmishing line. They sally out from their respective sides, and, meeting in midcareer, strike out viciously at each other’s heads, each man holding up his cloak with his left hand as a shield to ward oil the blows of his adversary, After the club-fight lasted about thirty seeptidS ohe side <jr the other be? giiis to give way, which is the signal for a rush of the others. Almost invariably the other side breaks and runs, and sometimes are chased into their houses, but generally some of the pursuing party press too closely upon the fugitives. Then the latter suddenly turn and deal a few staggering blows, which cheek the pursuers, and in a second the tables are turned, and those who a moment ago were flushed with Victory are iioW in full fiigiit witfi their eneniieS:, Thus the battle goes back and forth across the fields, while the neighboring embankments are crowded with spectators. The effect of the thundering cheers of the spectators is marvellous. They charge upon each other as if in actual battle, and show what would he bravery if exerted in some useful cause. Near the river there are numerous villages, numbering from one hundred to five hundred houses each; They are situated along the. banks at internals of about half a mile. These keep up, a continual series of fights among themselves during the season, one village being arrayed against another. The defeated party fly across the marshy fields to their own, village; followed by their enemies, who enter after them, seizing anything on which they can lay their hands—iron, files, doors—to mark their victory. Then the whole village rises against the invaders, and they fly, glad if they can get back without broken heads. The first stone fight of the present season was rather more disastrous than usual. It is reported that six men were killed; but this is probably an exaggeration. A company of soldiers was ordered out to stop it, which they found some difficulty in doing, even with fixed bayon cts.—Galignani’s Messenger. JOHN GILPIN'S RIDE. Ail AHlrislng Advent Ore Which SuggcstM That ref ill. Mr. Beyer, a London lineti-draper doing business in Paternoster row, near Clieapside, is said on fairly good authority to have had the experience which suggested to Cowper the famous ballad concerning “John Gilpin.” The merchant, so the story goes, was, together with his family, invited to attend the pleasure party at a country place called Edmonton. He concluded that it would be a good plan for himself to go there on horseback and send his Wife and children by carriage, The ilniuiai which lio pro: cured was extremely obstinate and hard to handle, and, not being much of an equestrian, Mr. Beyer lost control of it. The result was that the beast in going carried him far past his destination, and when he got it turned around, carried him clear back to London, to the great discomfort both of himself and his family and friends, who saw him dash past Edmonton .twice without stopping. The adventure came to the ears Of Lady Austen, then a young girl, and later in life she told it to Cowper to dispel his melancholy. It is related that when he heard it he was extremely amused and laid awake the greater part of the following night Working it into ballad form. Beyer, the Unwilling hero of the ride, died on the ilth of May, 1791, at the age of ninetyeight years.—Chicago News.

Mourning; Colors In Various Countries. Mourning colors the world over are strangely contradictory. In Ethiopia grayish brown is used as a sign of grief, because it typifies the color of the clay to which the body returns. Sky blue, as worn in Syria and Armenia, carries with it the comforting assurance that the souls of the deall have wafted beyond" the skies. With the South sea islanders black and white express alternate hope and sorrow. In Turkey the mourning color is violent, in China white. The yellow of the dying leaf is worn in Egypt and Ttnrmah. —Jenness Miller. A Lost Illustration. “He’s an awful miser.

trttjijR iftMirtEfllf: L Wholesale Cot In Wi,gea lu the Protected Iron mid Steel Irdu-try. Last weeli .wcheard pf a hi# .combine composed pi Carnegie; Phipps is (?o.j fhri Homestead Works, ana of‘several otnef big steel mills. It needed no prophet to foretell the reduction of wages now promised. Give a set of organized manufacturers—especially tariff protected ones—a monopoly of any product and of the labor of the producers as well and they may be counted upon to depress tile pride of labor and enhance the price of goods to the fuii extent of theif power. The .extent and explanation of these reductions is given in the New York Time#6f Jpne 10, 1893, as follows: A WHOLESALE CU*. ffi WACgg. , ^ , While the high tariff statesmen are talking glibly at' Minneapolis about wagos and tho protected workingman, the republican and high tariff manufacturers of iron and steel ar s con spiring to make a gre.it deal of trouble for them aud to enliven the approaching compaign with a great contest for a sh irp reduction of the wages of their employes. The story was told in the high tariff Philadelphia Pres ion Monday lath, under the headlines, "Big Labor War Imminent,—Iron Manufacturers Will Make a Wholesale Cut in Wages—Reductions to Vary from 15 to 50 Per Cent.—Workers in a Crippled Condition for a Fight.” Tho Press explained that the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers was very soon to be confronted by “a very startling proposition,” involving “the largest reduction ever asked for by the manufacturers.” It continued as follows: •'Tile proposition coffleh, to the association through the Mahoning and Shenatigo Vsffley Iron Manufacturers’ association, which comprises the gre it establishments of Brown, Bunnell & Co., the Mahoning Valley Iron Co.. Cart wr'glit, McCurdy & Co.. Youngstown Rolling Mill Co., Buhl Iron Co., Trumbull Iron Co., and all the other mills in Cleveland aud St Louis.” It then sot forth the reductions demanded, saying that “the very iirst Hem is an indication ef the wholesale slaughter in wages asked for by the manufacturers. ” Tills is a reduction fronl 55:50 pi *1.50 per ton for pu illlng, With additional reductions to be caused by ari increase of the quantity of work required. Said the Press: “The great slaughter comes on the guide, teninch, hoop and cotton-tie mills. Where the rollers, heaters, roughers and catchers now mako 15.88 per ton, they are asked to accept M.3.1, and on grados where they now tn iko 55 11 they are asked to b .* satisfle 1 with M 93 ” This does not appear to have been foreseen by McKinley anl his associates when they largely increase! the duty on cotton ties. Tho price for rolling pipe ifon ifl sheet and jobbing mills is tlxed at 53.39 per tori, Ins toil of d. 10. The Press closed its review ot the proposed rSiuetions with the following rent irks: “The workers will bo brought f.ico to face with a stern determinition on the part of the manufacturers to force an acceptance of their scale this year, which, if they succeed, practically means tho permanent-crippling of the Amalgamated association. The manufacturers are said to be a unit in their determina t ion to accept nothing less than they propose, and as a consequence, one of the bitterest struggles that has taken place in iron circles in years is Jast beatnning to dawn.” The Iron Age Of thrfSth inst. confirms these assertions and publishes the full scaic of reductions proposed. Says this authority: “Large reductions hare been made in nearly every department. We are advised that manufacturers at tho above places [the Mahoning and Shenango valleys and Cleveland district] have a thorough understanding among themselves, and that this scale is in the nature of an ultimatum from them from which they will not recede." The Pittsburgh manufacturers have not yet formulated the reductions which they will demand, but tho Iron Age reports that trouble has arisen "at tho Homestead' stool works ol Catnegie, Phipps & Co.1' “It is understood that the reason for this is that the firm have rdvle large reductions id the scale, which the men are ndt walling to accept.” The changes proposed by Mr. C i:n;glb arid his assdeia es “irioan a clear reduction of abtfdt i? per cent to every min who works by tonnage. In addition to this, other largo reductions are made, in soirie cases over 35 per cent." The workmen have bean told that they must sign tho new sc tie “on or ioef ■ Juno 31.” There lire several gentlemen in Minneapolis who should not overlook this lions. Oncol them is Mr. H. W. Oliver, chairman of the convention's sub-committee on the tariff, who re ported to the iron and stool manufacturers af tci the passage of the McKinley bill that the rates in tho noiv iron and st’ccl s hedule “were those proposed by the manufacturers themselves ” Another is ex-Speakcr Reed who declared that the manufacturers had “obtained jus: what they wanted,” anl who said at Buffalo on October 15, 1890: ‘They ask me whether I consider the MeKin ley bill just, to the poor. Well, I should say so A bill which has for its object tho aiding of the poor by raising their wages, it seams to me, is a just one.” , iMr. McKinley himself should meditate upori the great reductions now liemini d by the iron manufacturers of UiS own state. Perhaps the convention can be induced to s fv something in its piatfonii aliorit tho imp -a Pug conflict between the manufacturers and their Work men. NUTS TO CRACK. Protectionist! Will l'iiid It Difllcult to Dispone of tho Annexed Facts. If, as protectionists tell ns, wages depend upon tariffs, then, as we have the same tariff in all parts of the United States, it would be natural to conclude that wages should- be uniform from Maine to California. The Foundry men’s association, of Philadelphia, after a considerable amount of correspondence, has compiled a" tabulated statement of wages paid in foundries of the United States printed in the Iron Age of May 20, 1893. Some of the figures ai’e from country foundries, others from carwheel, stove and malleable iron and pipe shops, etc., According to this table the average wages of molders vary from $3.50 per day in San Francisco and Oakland, Cal., to $1.00 in l^gerstown. Md. A few of the other averages are: In Pittsburgh, Pa.,$3; Coushohookeu, Pa., $3.83\i', Philadelphia, $3.50; Chester,Pa.,$3.45; York, Pa., $2.10; Reading, Pa., $2; Allentown, Pa., $1.90; Bloomsburgh,. Pa., $1.75; Denver, Col., $3.35; New. York arid Brooklyn, $3.00; Chicago, IlE, $2.75; Charleston, S. C., $3.69; Portsmouth, N. II.. $3.25; Elmira, N. Y., $3; Wilmington, Del., $1.85. The average wages of core makers vary from $3.50 In Leadville, Col., and $3.35 in San Francisco, Cal., to $1.25 in Elmira, N. Y., Brockport, N. Y., and.Selma, Ala.; of cupola tenders from $3.50 in Oakland, Cal., to $1.00 in several southern cities; , of ehippers from $3.50 in Leadville, Col., to 75 cents in Athens, Ga. Will some kind and logical protectionist please explain these discrepancies? Will he also inform us how it is that the highly paid labor in eastern cities compete with the poorly paid labor in neighboring cities and in the south, and turns out his product cheaper than the poorly paid labor can turn out their product? He might also give his reasons for thinking that New York laborers need protection from the pauper labor of Canada and none from the pauper labor of Maryland; and why a tariff wall should not be constructed on the Allegheny mountains to protect the $3-a-day labor of Pittsburgh from the $3-a-day labor of Reading and Harrisbffcg. Such apparent inconsistencies as these are. daily occurring to many untutored minds and it behooves the protectionist to be on the alert, with simple, straightfor ward arguments to dispel them. -»- Another Tariff Picture. In the month of May prior to the passage of the McKinley bill, the amount of rainfall was two inches. While for the first nineteen days in the present month of May, under the McKinley bill, the amount of rainfall has been two foot.

And there are people who say that more rain is needed to settle the rain that has already fallen.—Washington Post, May 23, 1892. —What college crew would attempt to win a. boat race with half of their oarsmen rowing in one direction and the other half in the other direction? And yet we expect to secure commerce by putting bounties on shipping to encourage trade while we hive taxes and duties on imports and shipping torestrict trade. Verily some of our statesmen are pulling at their boot straps »nd wondering why they don't lift >,hw*me|vt^. ■

CLIPPED FROM EXCHANGES. A black snake eleven feet four inches long was killed a few days ago in the neighborhood of Allen's Mill, O. Snakes appeared through the broken plastering in the school of CKfestnui Ulll, Montville, Conn., and the pupils fled in terror. A large block of asphaltum which wetghed'ftwo and one-half tons was recently cot from the mine of the Santa Barbara AsphaltCompany of La Peters, Cal. * A BILL of accounts eighty-three feet long, arid containing over one thousand items, was lately presented for judicial investigation, before Judge Holbrook; in the probate court of Norwich, Conn. A deposit of $20 made in the Newburyport institute for savings in 1820now calls for interest amounting to ?S9S. No one has everclaimcd the original deposit and no addition ha% ever been made to it.
