The industry is crushing them into silence. THE present congress has appro priated $2C3,Cj3,0C j more than a bil lion, that is, its ag-gregate appropri ations amount to more than the fifiy-6rst congress. This shuts off one more wind pipe of the demo cratic press. The 237 democrats in congress complain that they have been 'aided and encouraged by the eighty-seven republicans" in wast ing the people's money in extrava gant appropriations. That small republican minority must exert a remarkable influence over the inno cent majority which is three times its eize. The Council Bluffs Globe, speak ing of tariff on wire nails, and ad mitting that the tariff is two to four cents per pound, while the selling price is only S1.G0 per 100, save: "If so, 1 hen where is the good ol po teclio.i, if ft reduces the price." The Sioux C'.;y Journal says that Con- g.essniaa Doliver, to one of h"s in terlocutors who asked practically the same question, gave a good a a swert.f Wbydo the railroads have snow fences in the summer lime?" Red Oak Independent. ; ; wJOCRATjC organs hare fumed i grown red in the face assert- ! . Mbere is no such tb'.ag as 1"n '.:'..; manufactories in the United Spates," aud yet such manufactories go oa multiplying, until democracy has ret"red double-leaded editorials disgusted. "The poor man's lit t'e dinner pail" and "democratic tin peddlers" going through the coaal y charging honest house wves "tvenly-five cents for tin cups" wo a't be repeated in 1S92. It was part of the campaign of 1890, before the McKinley law had a chance to speak for itself. James A. Wright, of the Inman steamship line, says: "We believe that we can build good ships in th.-s country as cheaply as we can in England. Labor is higher over here, but they do better work. In the building of cheap and loosely put-together tramps we, of course, can not compete. That class of vessels can be built cheaper on the olher 8''de." Mr. Wright strikes the keynote of protection. Br protecf i:ig dir workmen we have made skilled laborers of them. Cheap labor makes cheap met and well paid labor makes skilled and ener getic workmen. What is true of shipbuilding is also true of nearly erery other branch of labor. Evert citizen of Plattsmottth who has bought goods at retail for use in the fatn ily at Omaha, has to that extent injured Plattsmouth. No resident, man or woman, can be a friend te PJtattsmouth and at the same time spend their money for goods in Omaha. We are proud of Omaha but we are prouder of our own fair city and its merchants. No man or woman in Plattsmouth can buy goods in Omaha the year ronnd for less than they can herein Platts mouth. We have taken some trouble to find out prices and can say to our readers that our opinion, the Platts mouth dealers are selling as closely as any in Omaha. It is a duty our people owe their home town to pat ronize home first, and not only that bt talk for the town and its busi ness inteleci. ALU WOOL AND BEANS ON THE SIDE. Minneapolis will provide ample entertainment for every delegate and visitor to the republican na tional conventton, the St. Paul Pio neer Press and the New York Times to the contrary notwilalanding. The committee in charge will induce many to partake of the hospitali ty of St. Paul, but a great majority of the delegates and active workers will prefer quarters in Minneapolis. But St. Paul will get its full share ( of viHitorn, never fear. In passing I we may remark that t his is not the first time the Pioneer Press ha gone out of its way to injure both St. Paul and Minneapolis. Miune apolis Tribune. WAGES IN TIN MINES. Great Britain's tin mines in the Cornwall district are becoming ex hausted, and the Wales tin plate makers, when they were using their maximum of tin, got only one-sixth of their supply from Great Britain, and about one-half from Malacca, Banca, Java, and the Dutch East Indies in general, where the Chinese labor is paid 10 cents a day. At the American tin mine in Temescal, Cal., the surface laborers, the lowest paid of the employes, get $2.25 per day. THE RIOT OF EXTRAVAGANCE. The democratic house of repre sentative;, which Mr. Ilolman of Indiana has been trying to run on the 5-cent appropriation theory, broke loose from bis control Mon day and voted a $50,000,000 river and harbor bill, the largest ever passed in congress. It was another illus tration of the futility which always attends an effort of the tail to wag the dog. The south, however much it may waver in its devotion to the old flag, never wavers in its devo tion to an appropriation, and it rode roughshod over the Miama river statesman and his 5-ceat system of appropriations. The democratic house passed the bill by the large rote of 186 to 05. The river aud har bor b'll of the "billlou dollar" con gress, so called by the peanut dem ocratic demagogues, appropriated $24,C:3,000, of which $13,000,000 was for future expenditure. 'The pres ent house has authorized future ex. pendUures of $27,CC0,CCO and an ag gregate of $50,000,000, or more than twice the amount ever appropriated before by any congress for this purpose.

We were camped at the Dot Springs on the Lo Lo trail, made famous in In dian annals by the escape of Chief Jo seph aud his band of Nez Percetf. Just above us was a large camp of Flatheads who were making their fall hunt. Ono morning we were awakened by should and cries. Evidently there was great excitement somewhere, and we promptly jumped up. It was just after daylight and cold clouds of steam were rising from the big basin shaped poul at the foot of the granite wall, from which poured a thick stream of boiling waier. The pool was so large that at the lower edge the water was almoet cold. The nearer you approached to the place whore the water Lmrst from the rock the better chance you st od of getting boiled. At the edge, at a point where the water was of a comfortable temperature, stood two Indians, one on the bank and the other on a stone in the water. Near by were a dozen other Indians guarding a number of little Indian boys and girls who had nothing on and were howling and crying. When we looked out of the tent the two Indians at the pool had an Indian boy, 4ne holding him by the feet the other by the hands, and were gravely swinging him backward and forward through the warm water, while he yelled at every dip. As soon as they had fin ished with him he was set upon the bank, and ran to the willow brush near by. Then the noise redoubled, for each child in the group guarded by the In dians feared that it was his turn. They all tried to escape to the brush, but their elders pursued and caught them, untu the very last one had been put through the cleansing process. New York Sun. Bis Field Gmns and Their Effect. If you insist on high velocity you have to add so much additional machinery to your gun carriage and have to so greatly strengthen its construction that you destroy ite mobility, while even if you gain a long range you are still unable to make use of your most efficient projec tile at it. Moreover, since the remain ing velocity of its shrapnel is a truer measure of the value of a gun than its initial velocity, and the two are by no means directly proportional, it does not follow that we benefit as much as we might expect by submitting to these disadvantages. Thus, the 12-pounder .has an initial velocity of over 1,700 feet per second and a remaining velocity at 3,000 yards of 862 feet; while the 13-pounder, with, an initial velocity of only 1,560 feet, has at the same range a remaining velocity greater by six feet per second than that Of its rival. One of our highest authorities on field artillery has, indeed, recorded his opii ion, that, as regards the efficiency ot shrapnel, we gain nothing by the in creased muzzle velocity of "the best field gun in Europe" at all practical ranges. Moreover, it is the attempt to squeeze out the last few extra feet that does all the harm. London Saturday Review. Modern Education. With all its novel modern powers and practical sense I am forced to admit that the purely scientific brain is miserably mechanical; it seems to have become a splendid sort of self directed machine', an incredible automaton, grinding on with its analysis or constructions. But for pore sentiment, for all that spon taneous Greek waywardness of fancy, f or the temperature of passion and the subtler thrill of ideality, you might as well look to a wrought iron derrick. Science found education blundering peacefully along, cultivating half of the mind with charming results and letting the other die of disuse; it worked the startling miracle of electrifying this dead half into life and bringing it to perfect activity, and straightway, satis fied with this remarkable achievement, it proceeded to neglect the ideal half which the classics had made so much of and caused it to perish. It has substi tuted a new sort of half maa for the old one. Clarence King in Forum. Skill in the Wrist. It is wonderful what a part the wrist plays in exercises in which physical skill and delicacy are required. After a man learns to play billiards well enough to be familiar with the cushions and the English, the important thing to cultivate is his stroke. It is the hardest thing about billiard playing to get a good 6troke, and sometimes the greatest play ers "fall down" because they lose con trol of it. Now, the, stroke wholly de pends on the action of the wrist. Jake Schaeffer, or any good player, will make a shot of seven cushions with less ap paient force than a beginner will exert in getting three. This is due to the superior-wrist movement. It's the same way with violin playing. The quality and touch all depend on wrist manipulation. So with curving a baseball. Great pitchers always work a strong wrist movement on the ball as it leaves the hand. If they didn't it wouldn't curve at all. St. Louis Globe Democrat. Good Story About a Saeo Lawyer. A Saco lawyer lost his office key and with it, on the same bunch, the keys to bis safe and house. There is a spring lock on his office door, and he concluded that he must have left it in his office and have come out and locked the door. He accord ingly borrowed a long ladder and crawled through the back window 6f Ma iC- Spot Cash MANY YEARS A3 ",TTr "'ET WROTE: "Man wants but little here below, Nor wants that little long."
