Sweetness and Light. Put a pill in the pulpit if you want practical preaching for the physical man; then put the pill in the pillory if it does not practise what it preaches. There’s a whole gospel in Ayer'’s Sugar Coated Pills; a “gospel of sweetness and light.” People used to value their physic, as they did their religion,—by its bitterness. The more bitter the dose the better the doctor. We've got over that. We take “sugar in ours”— gospel or physic—now-a-days. It’s possible to There © please and to purge at the same time.

Wocdford, as United States minister to Spain. While the government continues to re- -pudiate the intention of recalling Gen. Weyler, I am in a position to reiterate that his recall will be an accomplished fact at no distant date. I learn that in all probability Generals Blanco and Macias will proceed to the island and divide the supreme command, and I have good reason to believe that co- incident with the arrival here of Gen.

June 30.—Notwithstand- ing the denials of the local officials of the miners association, an afternoon paper publishes a long article in effect that the national officers of the unioh will issue orders to-morrow for a strike in five states. The edict, the paper says, will go forth from Colum- is that the men are to lay down their on Saturday. Nearly 125,000 it is said, will be engaged in this Pittsburg, men, great conflict, and the battlefield will cover the bituminous coal centers of ndiana, Ohio, Illinois, West Virginia and Western Pennsylvania.

Differences Regarding Wage Scales to Be Adjusted. Pittsburg, June 29. — All the union iron mills in the country, the tin plate and sheet mills will close on Wednes- day night and remain closed until the wage scales are settled. No serious trouble is expected and the failure to adjust the wage scale before the close of the year is not an indication that a strike is to be inaugurated. Presi- dent Garland, of the Amalgamated as- sociation, denies a telegraphic report from Chicago that he will order a general strike at the plants of the Illinois Steel company if the scale is not signed for the Bay View mill be- fore Thursday. He said the Bay View and all the union iron mills in the country will close on that day pending a settlement of the scale, but that a suspension is necessary at this time for annual repairs and that manufac- turers are not in a hurry to come to a settlement at once. A MYSTERIOUS ABDUCTION. Daughter of a Respectable Family Carried Off in Her Night Clothes. Los Angeles, Cal., June 29.—The lit- tle town of Downey, in the southern part of the county is terribly excited over a case of abduction. Miss Mains, the daughter of respectable well-to-do people, was chloroformed and taken from her bed room in her night dr by an unknown man who entered by a window. At daylight the young woman was found wandering in a dazed condition several miles from home. She has been unable as yet to give a description of her abductor, but a posse with bloodhounds is scouring the country about Downey. Several nights ago some one attempted to enter a room of Dr. Brunson where his daughter slept, at Downey, but was seared away. FIVE BALLS IN HIS BODY. Shooting Affray Which May Develop Into a Family Feud. Laneaster, Ky., June 29. — On the public square Marion Sebastian was shot dead, five balls having penetrated his body, three lodging in his head, one in his right lung and one in his leg. A coroner’s jury heard testimony immediately and its verdict was that S. D. and Jack Turner and an un- known party fired the murderous shots, also that S. D. Turner, who is a brother-in-law to Sebastian, was principal in the killing and fired the first shot. All were well-to-do farmers and this tragedy is likely to start a bad family feud.

SENATOR CANNON INTRODUCES LU- BIN’S SCHEME T0 HELP FARMERS, He Makes a Hot Speech and Floors All Opponents—Present Protec- tion Is One-Sided and Robs the Farmer—He Now Sells in a Cheap and Buys in a Dear Market—Can Be Protected Only By Export Bounties on Farm Products—It He Cannot Get These He Wants Absolute Free Trade. Senator Cannon of Utah introduced, on May 25, an amendment to the tariff bill which is likely to make trouble for the Republican leaders, and which may break down the whole protective sys- tem. The amendment favors the Lu- bin scheme of paying export bounTes on farm products. This scheme is now not only by its David Lubin, but also by of many states and by t ard ministers. It make le the ranks of protection, and has dy opened more farmers’ eyes to folly of the tem than all ef the ff reform work that has been dc nator Cannon told some plain truths when introducing this amendment. He spoke, in part, as follow: I With great surp: ion of the hat 1 found that the great c! of our popu- lition who have from the beginning not only supported the protective ts B y . but have supported f principle by their being pushed vigorous author, . upon an a large dezr benetits. i patent om the measure as it now stands that the amendment is preposed and will be ad- | ed here until a vote shall be had | The bill, as it is offered today, affords no protection to agricultural st There is remaining, 1 pre ume, No ad- vocate of the protective ta 5 who will contend that in this Dill, with these import duti there is affor any protection or benefit of in -e arising from import duties upon any of these commodities of which we | xport our surplus, nor are there re- | maining at the present time in the school of protection very many men who will contend and none who will prove that the indirect protection af: forded to the rmer by the taritf on manufactured goods is sufficient com- | pensation to him for the vast cost e tailed upon him in carrying the prote: ive tariff system upon manufactured goods. to all who have any direct connecticn | * with the agricultural industry of the | United States, that the mer cannot, | and the man who reads him well knows that the farmer will not much longer bear this burden. There are three remedies possible. The second remedy, and one which I, as believer In protection, would be to accept rather than to hold to and vote for an inequitable bill, would be absolute free trade, by which the farmer might buy as cheaply as he i: compelled to seH, and that remedy thi, congress will not seek to enforce. There remains, then, but the third—the appli- cation of an export bounty which shall, in a great measure, give restitution to the farmer for the higher prices which he is compelled to fay in protected mar- ; ke ‘0 proposition based upon the declar- ation of equal protection to all the in- dustries of the United States is com- plete, nor can there be successfully made a contention that it is just. un- es to the exporter of agricult- 1 staples from the United States an quivalent to that given to the manu- facturer by the imposition of an import | duty. A duty of 25 cents a bushel on wheat is a delusion and a snare. The farmer of the United States gets no benetit from it. The imposition of duty upon cotton, if that were attempted, would be of no value to the cotton producer. The imposition of a duty on rye is of no value to the farmer of the United tes. Every other protected indus a direct benefit from this tari ‘use where we do not produce in the United States sufficient for our own consumption and a quantity consider- ably in exe for export the import du- producer can enhance the price to the local consumer. The immediate benefit to the farmer derived from the treasury of the United States would not be all. For this com- paratively small expenditure to him he would r ve for these s aples more than $227 he now receives. would increase the price of brea stuffs to the consumers in the cities; but, under the declaration made here to-day that, with higher prices the peo- ple will be mvre able to buy, we will have a larger consumption of wheat and wheat flour and other agricultural staples in the cities of the country than we have now at the low prices. Mr. Butler—Mr. President, the senat- or from Utah said he was in favor of about $13,000,000 export duty on wheat at 10 cents a bushel. If we an ex- port bounty of 10 cents a bushel, that will raise the price of every bushel of wheat, whether exported or consumed at home, that much, will it not? Mr. Cannon+Certainly it will Mr. Butler—Then, for an investment of $13,000,000, which the government would pay out in the shape of an ex- port bounty, the wheat farmers of the country would get their protection of $60,000,000, or $70,000,000, weuld they not? Mr. Cannon—They would, if there be any truth in the protective principle. Mr. Butler—That would be a very good investment. Mr. Cannon—It would be a very good investment if it were made in behalf of manufacturing industry or any trust in the United States; but anyth! in behalf of the farmer is looked upon with scora, and is considered a doubt- ful investment by the legislature of the United States. In addition, Mr. President, it is a very poor argument, when you ye been robbing some man for years, and he you for justice, to say that you e to continue to rob him of mere ay that you do not know where you are going to get the money with which to restore that which you have unrighteously taken. It is the very first duty of the congress of the United States to provide a bill which shall not only be honest in its present applica- i 5,000,000 in higher prices than It is true that this L ig | Republican, | which obliges me to look more portion of that which has been taken from the pockets of the toilers of the land. I have talked with the farmers in twenty states of the Union since last fall, and I firmly believe that this tariff will no longer e®dure than until the farmers of the United State nm have a chance to revise it at the po if you do not e to them some portion of its benefits. The farmer is bending beneath a bur- den which he cannot carry longer. He has been the backbone of the integrity cf the United States; but there comes, in the place of the free and independ- ent farmer of this country ar of tenantry to reap servilely where he sowed nobl men who receive their opinions from others instead of giving their own independent voice at the pells and in all their declarations to their fellow men.

This theory will be aptly exemplified in the proposed duties on hid the people would be compelled to piy more for their feotwear. It is estimated that the increased cost of boots and shoes for one year under the proposed duty would amount to 000,000, With free hides, our ma facturers of leather goods have been able to build up a great export trade in footwear.
