Obituary. Miss LetUia Huey died at her home in Union, last Friday morning, after an illness of about tiro weeks of pneumonia. The deceased was one of Pike county's most efficient teachers, and in her loss the cause of education loses one of its ablest supporters. She was boru near Giant's Causeway, Antrim county, Ireland, March 16, 1849, and* yet possessing a hear, at all times I oval to flip United States, she had always remained a citizen of Great Britain, always and ably defending her native country when attacked. Her parents catpe to this country when she was eight years of age, locating first %t Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Residing there about a year when they returned to Irelaud, where the family resided for the next eighteen months, and again they rej turned to America; this time settling in Gibson county, near Princeton. Residing there about a year they went to Wheeling, a village about three miles southwest of here4 After the I death of the father at the above pjace I the mother and three daughters rei moved to Union, where the mother's death occurred a few years later. Having been educated in the common schools of Indiaua, Miss Letitia taught her first school ati Walnut Grove, Patoka township, in Gibson county, being then not quite fifteen years of «age. After teaching for sometime she attended the schools of Oakland City and Danville. Thrown early upon her own resources, she adopted the profession of teaching, to which she has given about thirty years of her life. She has resided ai Union since March, 1882, and has been a teacher of this county since that time. In May, 1885, she visited the home of her childhood, spending the eutire summer iu the Emerald Isle, thus, with her return voyage, crossing the Atlantic five times. Miss Huey's friends are numbered by the many, fbr all who knew her loved and reverenced her for her good and kind disposition and her many virtues. She leaves" two sisters and two brothers and a hoet of friends by whom she will ever be gratefully remembered. Her funeral was preached by Rev. William Crawford, of Oakland City, and the bnria'. was one of the most impressive ever witnessed in our lit- | tie town. May she rest in peace, and may the people of Union keep her memory green. 4. c. t.

INDUSTRY REVIVING*. DISHEARTENING NEWS FOR THE CAr « LAMfTY HOWLER. Ipfiiirt riniMT Qiirtlw Ikt li:M» The announcement that the lan jest nil works in the country ' rill ahcrtly he eetabllshed at Alexandria* led.* most be disheartening news to the profess!onal calamity howlers whose pet hobby is inoeesant denunciation of the new tariff. Another announcement of similar characterJs to the effect that the pant of the Depanw Plate Glass works, which has been idle for several yean, may possibly be removed from New Albany, Ini, to Alexandria, and work resumed npon a large scale. This concern was at one time the most extensive of its kind in this country. Its founder was originally a Democrat and one of the most; prominent and active in southern ladi- i
ana. II wu during the campaign of 1880, If we are not mistaken, that he conceived the Idea that if he ooold hare i “protection” on plate glam his liustness, which was then gradually de:lin Ing in volume, might be increased and made mare profitable Accordingly ho turned his back upon the Democratio party, of which he had been a lifelong member, and announced his conversion to Republicanism, due to his changed opinions upon the tariff question. But although the Republicans carried this country and the tariff on plate glass was raised the business of the Depanw concern continued to fall off, and a few years later the oompany failed. Several efforts hare been made to revive the business, and it is a significao t fact that the first and only one which has given any promise of success should now be in progress under a tariff whose schedule of duties on plate glass ranges from 6 to 37 per cent lower than those at the McKinley tariff. One can scarcely pick up a newspaper nowadays and not find therein indications of substantial improvement in the industrial situation. We believe this will continue to be the case, and while we do not look for any phenomenal betterment of present conditions within the next two yean we expect to witness a gradnal and decided improvement which will convince the country that it would be unwise to disturb the new tariff in a general sense and the height of folly to replace it with one carrying the higher duties and monopolistic features at its predecessor. Once satisfied that the tariff is, tm the whole, a beneficial measure the |>eople will turn their attention to thscuiTency question and make that the leading issue in the presidential campaign. All signs now point to a forcing of that issue to the front The belief is st eadily j gaining ground in all parts of tb.:> country that pur dependence upon Great Britain for a financial policy and system is at the bottom of all the ills which afflict ns a* a peopla Even in the Republican party, which demonetized silver, and which for more than 20 years has faithfully upheld the interests of the English gold mom;metallists, this feeling is spreading, and the leaders of the party are looking around for some scheme which will enable it to bold the support of the “golilbugs” while at the same time appearing to grant some substantial concession to the bimetallists. If the Demoerati :t party does not take advantage of the opportunities which the new situation will create and array itself fairly and squarely on the side of the people’s rights, it will deserve another such defeat as overwhelmed it a month ago.— New York Mercury.
Chaap boa aad tha Price of Labor. The Scranton Republican, lamenting the advent of cheap iron in the United States, aatat with tears in its voice, if the news has reached The Record office that American laborers can be hired in Lehigh oounty to work in the iron ore far 60 cents a day. Our esteemed contemporary is respectfully informed fiat this news reached Tim Record office SO years ago. when iron was worth treble what it beings today. Labor is always sold in the open market far what it will bring without reference to the profit of production. Cheap iron, however, is a wide beneficence. It sets thousands of men at work who would otherwise be idle and cheapens a thousand necessaries which workingmen must buy. —Philadelphia Record. pal of the Iijto* Pan. The I/»«iirf»na sugar planters have not only lost $17,600,000 this year by the withdrawal of the bounty, bat now end that the Sugar trust will farce them to sell their output at its terms. And thesp very planters flopped Into the Republican party just before election, although they knew that Republican legislation was responsible for the existence of the Sugar trust, aad that the Sugar trust was “potting up” to help bring about a Republican landslide We won’t say, “Served them right,” bat we will say that they should have known better.—New York Mercury. ,_

What a pity Mr. McKinley did not think of this in 1890!
