TlIE democratic papers are grad
ually letting go the tin plate ques
tion. 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?"

! . Mbere is no such tb'.ag as 1"n
'.:'..; manufactories in the United
Spates," aud yet such manufactories

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.

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

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. Chicago Tribune.

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

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
