cating the wisdom of the protection

aware that the campaign of 1891 is
over, but also ;alculates to do a lit
tle missionary work occasionally.
Tor instance, it rises to remark that
one year and a half ago e ery free
trade organ in America was a daily
prognosticator that the iniquitous
McKinley tariff law would destroy
American commerce. What does
the present situation show to us?
That our foreign trade, for the year

botli imports and exports amounted
to $1, 117,172,421. For the year 1891 it

AMERICAN TIN PLATE
Klwood, Ind., Jan. 25 Some time J
ago I vouched for the richness of
the tin mines near Rapid City, S. D.
I said they occupied a section of
Harney's Peak about twelve miles
square, and that thescientiest there
assayed the ore and found it from
2p to 9.5 per cent. The article was
printed 22 to 05 per cent, and mug
wump journal in New York used
up two columns in editorial show
ing that 25 and 95 per cent tin ore
was ridiculous, a self-evident fact
that any average man could see.
The fact thet we bad in the Unit
ed States large sections of rock-
bearing ore richer in tin than the
mines of Mallacca is what I said.
Such fact is not doubted in Dakota.
Yesterday I visited atin factory in
Elwood, Ind., that would be a joy to
any American. It is situated in the

Pan Handle. This tin plate plant
tmilt up from the graund in
this country by Welsh skill and
money. Money to build this great
factory is furnished from Wales and
by Col. A. L. Conger, who has great
plate glass works here, and W. B.
Leeds, and other Pennsylvania
magnates. The McKinley bill made
this factory.
Yes. The Dernier Tin Plate Com
pany ot uemler, fa., is making
1,000 boxes a week; the Britton Tin
Plate Works in Cleveland are turn
ing out 1,0000 boxes a week; the
work at Apollo, Ind., are turning
on 800 boxes a week; Anderson, Ind
is making 500 boxes a week; Neid
riughaus of St. Louis is turning out
1,000 boxes a week, and Somers of
Brooklyn, N. Y., is turning out
large quantities, I don't know how
much."
"Mow, you know this, Mr. Stanford,
I said, eyeing the Welshman stead
ily. "You know that these quan
tities of bright tin are being made
in this country. You know the
New York Times denies it
I rode over and inspected the
building yesterday with Superinten
dant E. Stanford, of the Jersey Tin
Plate Company of Britton Ferry,
Wales. Mr. Stanford has been mak
ing bright tin for twenty five years
in wales. After showing me
through three mammoth brick
buildings covering several acres, I
asked him if he could make the
best bright tin in America as well
in Wales.
"Certainly" he said. "I have made
it for twenty-five years in Wales
and we can make it more profitably
here, with the tariff as it is, than in
Wales. That is what brought me
here. We shall turn out 2,500 boxes
of American tin-plate a day by the
first of May."
"Is bright tin being made in other
places in the United States:" I
asked. I don't mean terne plate but
bright tin.
"Yes, sir, I know it. And why not
Until American tin ore can be got
ten out of the rocks in sufficient
quaitities we can do just what I did
in Wales use block tin from the
straits of Malacca. That comes
free of duty. The McKinley bill
will bring many tin factories to this
country in time. With natural gas
here as fuel, we expect to make
more money than in Wales."
"How about your iron?',

Farm and Factory.
Prosperity to the farmer means
similar conditions to all who labor;
btit prosperity must first come from
tlitf farm; and through the farm to
the factory. The farm stands at
the threshold of production, and if
the farmers' labors go unrewarded
success cannot come to those that
base their hopes upon what he pro
duces. The vast interest repre
sented in manufacturing, transpor
tation, mining and the minor indus
tries must look to agriculture as
a basis for all calculations for the
future. It then follows that the
home market is the market worth
considering; and the political party
which aims to impair its consuming
power ehould be denounced as a
common enemy, publicly arrayed
against prosperity.
All perishable products must find
a market near home to le valuable.
It is far easier to bring the factory
with its employes to the vicinity of
the farm than it is to transport the
perishable product to the great
centers of trade. The increase of
farm property within a radius of
ten or twenty miles of a large fac
tory can be ueed to demonstrate
this fact.
La Grippe.
No healthy person need fear any
dangerous consequences from an
attack of la grippe if properly
treated. It is much the same as a
severe cold and requires precisely
the same treatment.. Remain quiet
ly at home and take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy as directed for a se
vere cold and a prompt and com
plete recovery is sure to follow.
This remedy also counteracts any
tendency oi la grippe to result m
pneumonia. Among the many
thousands who have used it during
the epidemics of the past two years
we have yet to learn of a single
case that has not recovered or that
has resulted in pneumonia. 25 and

To the Public.
The Y. L. R. R. A. have arranged
with F. II. Thompson, of the Excel
sior Library Bureau of Chicago, to
add at least 300 volumes to their
library each year for a term of five
years, charging $6.25 for the whole
term, $5 for four years, $3.75 for
three years, $2.50 for two years, $1.50
for one year membership.
We bespeak a cordial reception
for Mr. Tkomas or his representa
tive from every progressive or
public spirited citizen and any
person who is interested in educa
tion and" mental culture. To start
with our library will contain over
500 volumes of standard literature,
comprising works of history,
biography, science, religion educa
tion, poetry, fiction, references and
miscellaneous. We will endeavor
to satisfy your literary wants and
trust as in the past you will favor
us with your liberal patronage, tf

I was w Iking through my hurls :nl
had nij gun with me, ami the hulxxms
were screaming on the top of the rocky
precipice that overhangs my home
etead. The dogs in tho farmyard, on
hearing the noise the hahoons were
making, rushed up to the mountain
ami were soon engatr'i in a deadly
light. I took up my gun and climbed
up the mountain for the purpose of as
sisting the dogs and in the hope of sav
ing them from being torn to pieces.
When I reached the summit of the
krantz a number of baboons lied. I
fired and wounded one in the shoulder;
he was immediately pursued and
tackled by the only dog left, the others
having been torn to pieces. The strug
gle for life or dvalh was taking place
between the wounded baboon and the
dog on the very brink of a precipice.
I had not another cartridge for my
gun, so I flit it down and picked up a
eouplo J'TiT' stones and walked to
within sof; .jprds of tin; spot.
1 was just in the act of hurling one
of them at the baboon when suddenly
a tremondous male baboon, the largest
I have seen, came straight at me in a
bold and dcliant manner, his eyes
gleaming with anger and his huge
jaws working together as if in antici
pation of the crunching that was in
store for me. I just had time to hurl
the stone in my now upraised hand at
him. when he was upon me. He seized
me by the leg first, and bit me with
such violence that I thought every
bone in my leg was smashed to atoms.
I kicked with all my might, I tried to
get hold of a stone. I attempted to
seize him by the throat, dealt him
several blows with the fist, but it was
all useless; the strength of the enraged
African mandril overpowered me com
pletely. After he had finished with my leg he
raised himself on his hind legs, put his
arm arcund me and seized hold of me
on the chest with his powerful jaws.
What could I do? Every now and
then he let go his hold of my breast
and snapped at my throat. I seized
him by the throat with my right hand
and clinched my fingers, but ne would
not yield his grasp for a single mo
ment. Every time I moved he dragged
me nearer to the edge of the precipice,
and we were now within three feet of
the brink and the ground sloping down
to it. I knew that if I for a moment
lost my footing down we should go
into the chasm below. The wounded
baboo and the dog, that were re
sponsible for the awful predicament in
which I now found myself, had just
rolled over into the abyss. We had
been at it nearly an hour, and, as the
baboon showed no signs of releasing
me, I felt I should not be able to hold
out much longer, as I am an old man,
considerably over 60.
At this stage I bethought myself of
a penknife I had in my waistcoat
pocket. If I could only get it out, I
might ward him off by stabbing him
in the face. I gradually got my left
hand into my pocket and got the knife
out, the brute scratching and tearing
my face with his hands all the while.
I got it to my mouth and held it there
till I had an opportunity of opening it
with my left hand. I then began
stabbing and prodding bim, but the
knife was not large enough to do him
much damage. I drew blood, how
ever, the sight of which only made
him more vicious still. By tlystime I
had scarcely a vestige of clothing left,
and my lacerated body bore tokens of
what a South African baboon can do
when he chooses to tackle and fight an
unarmed man.
I was wondering how all this was
fjoing to end, when one of the dogs that
lad been wounded in the fight, and
had recovered sufficiently to make his
way to where we were, seized the
animal from behind. I felt the brute
wished to get at the dog. He threw
himself from me upon the dog; they
had one rough-and-tumble, and then
the baboon walked sullenly away along
the ridge of the precipice.looking back
from time to time as if undecided
whether he should renew the attack.
It was some time before I could re
cover sufficient strength to descend
the mountain. 1 got home, however,
and the dog, too, after an encounter
bucJq as I shall never lorget.ana ine
of which I hope never to experience
again. Qraff-Reinet Advertiser.
