Among the very few articles of general consumption which experienced a rise in price last fall, on account of the McKinley bill, and thus furnished a flimsy foundation for a most colossal super-1 structure.of democratic lies, wasr albumen paper, ah article of in- ] . dispetisible use in photography,— aud this increase in price was heralded from one end of the country to the other, harped upon and reiterated, for all it was worth, aud a good deal more. The price was raised from 90 cents a quire to §1.20. But mark the result. Uuder the increased protectiou of the McKinley tariff some American manufacturers of the article, who had previously been compelled to quit business on account of European competition, at once resumed its manufacture, and now the price is back to the old figure , of 90 cents a quire, as any of the photographers can tell you, and the prospects are that the figures 'will go still lower. The following is from Peru Republican, every word of which is as true as gospel: Indiana has 875,000 for making a display at j the Chicago World’s Fair. Other States, not so good as Indiana, i have 8300,000. The reason for skimping our display at Chicago, is that we have the largest debt and the highest taxes per capita j of any State in the Union, except the eleven States of the late Confederacy, whose treasurers have stolen everything in sight and are living in luxurious exile. v A state dominated by a Democratic Legislature is, perhaps sufficiently glorified without making any display at the World’s Fair. Indianians will

go up and see' a miserable little shanty, and blush to behold the meager and shabby display of one of the greatest States in the Union, all on account of the party that holds the State in its grasp by a villainous gerrymander and lu» held it updike a highwayman W- - til it- has robbed its treasury of everything in sight and pletlged its credit to the point of extremity. -
