7. The trustees of the New Castlo commons met in regular monthly session, last night, with all members present. The financial statement showed that there was a fairly good balance after the usual number of bills had boon paid. Cohort Wnd.ilcv notified tho trustees that bis 30-foot porch had been blown away in the late storm and requested that the repairs bo made. Constable Ridings reported that the amount realized from the sale of the effects of Robert Montgomery, tho tenant who moved to Jersey by moonlight, was The matter of renting tho rooms In the town hall was brought up and provoked a lengthy discussion.

There arc a number of societies occupying the hall, besides tho building loans, aud there is no rent received. As the building is supposed to belong to the city, a schedule of prices for the societies was made and it was, decided to allow the janitor 50 per cent of this amouut as salary, the remaining half to be used for painting and repairing tho Interior Dr. E.

Mr. Wilson Do you want to inflict further punishment upon him Mr, You say tiiat only one person has sictted this communication; let us know who it is. Mr. Wilsou I will trust the honor of the gentleman from lVninsylvania with the name, or with anything else, and he can come and read the letter if he desires.

Mr. Johnson of Uhio I have some of that kind that he can read, too, if be wants to. Mr. Wilson But, Mr. Chairman, my friend from Pennsylvania does not Rpcrn tt Lave heard my statement.

I stated that my mail is lilled with private letters from workingriK'U in different parts of the country engaged in protected industries, telling me how they were drawn up like cattle and virtually forced to sign these protests, and begging me not to believe that they really signed the petitions in earnest. Mr. Apsley Mr. Chairman, inasmuch as the gentleman has alluded to a petition I presented, I hope he will allow me a suggestion. Mr.

Wilson Certainly. Mr. Apsley The gentleman has referred to a petition I had the honor to present this morning, and 1 hope lie will allow me to make this statement That petition was presented to this House bv 4,0.) working-men of the city of Fitcuburjr. in my Sfcue; thut it was a Poulaneou8 movement oil the part of the workingmen of that city, and that the manufacturers and overseers were not instrumental in securing its presentation to this House. It is a aitition circulated by the workingmen themselves, protesting in their own right against the passage of this bill.

Mr. Wilson 1 do not know, of course, whether the gentleman is speaking from personal knowledge or not; so I cannot take issue with him on that question. But 1 will read to the House, as the question has been raised here, a letter received bv myself from the city of Letviston, "i believe the home "of niv friend, Ciov. Dingier, and will show 'him the name signed to the letter if he desires it. but will not give it to the House.

It is as follows: "A tuition to Congress, praying that the tariff may let alone, is being presented to all of the operatives of all the mills in the city for their signatures. Such a is entitled to no consideration. The request to sign it coming from the overseer is equivalent to a command, and none of the employes dare refuse. The entire force is required to sign, even the little children, some hardly big enough to walk. I am requested to report the above facts by some of the operatives whose names will appear in the petition." This is as much as have space for of this discussion, but it goes far enough to show that members of Congress arc being kept informed of the manner in which these so-called workingmcn's remonstrances arc manufactured.

There are many weary mothers and tired young women who never have enough nervous energy to carry them through the day.

Prof. Phelps first prescribed I'aine's celery compound, the remedy that gives strength to the weak, that makes the sick to be well, that gives food to the nerves, that enriches impoverished blood, that cure rheumatism, kidnev com plaints, liver troubles, and all dieasos that arise from an impaired nervous system, the remedy that is incomparably the greatest in the world.

Mr. Russell carne to Milford, as lie usually does Saturdays, to receive such taxes as are offered in person, by persons known to him, or properly identified, when ho learned that a large number of negroes, 27 of whom are known, had been assessed both in Milford hundred, Kent county, and Cedar Creek hundred Sussex county, and thut tax receipts for them were being demanded by the would be Republican boss of these two hundreds from the collectors of both counties.

Thereupon he determined to investigate the matter before receiving any mora taxes, especially from thoso doubly-assessed Pending this investigation a lot of Republicans, black and white, urged on by tho bosses, tried to bulldoze Mr. Russell icto receiving some of these taxes. In regard to the two white men, the refusal was becauso payment was tendered 1 check iu ono case, which he refuse In tho other the man was simply put off for the time and w.ta not It was Impossible for Mr. Russell to steal out of Mr. Causey's ortlcc, as the door of tho oflico opened in full view of the street, and Russell knew ho was being waited for before he went out.

The Republicans of Milford and Cedar Creek hundreds arc playing a desperate game. Tho double assessment of negroes in the two adjoining counties is to assist them in their repeating practices, carried on so extensively at the last election by the same methods, voting in two places by tho aid of a tax receipt from each county. It must be borne in mind that the assessors both these adjacent hundreds are Republicans. Mo UK ANoJi. Mn.Foiio, Feb.

X.4i A glance at tne tariff legislation of onr own country ought to satisfy every -intelligent student that protection has always shown its falsity.as a system of economy by its absolute failure to insure healthy and stable prosperity to manufactures.

Report on Vie Wil.toii UiU.

Manufactured Ilemonstranre. Congressman Walker of Massachusetts has written an "open letter" to Chairman Wilson of the ways and means committee, relating to certain statements made by Mr. Wilson in a speech delivered on January 9th, but which did not appear in the CW-grestional Record until the 23d. too late, Mr. Walker pleads, to be replied to on the floor of the House.

In thi3 withholding of the speech for two weeks, we willingly concede that Mr. Waikvr has a grievance, but it is rather against the system which permits and has made frequent such deivs than arrainst Mr. Wilson personally. To our thinking the Congressional Record should be in reality what it only purports to be a faithful transcript of each day's proceedings and all that is said and done go iuto it direct from the stenographers' reports, leaving nothing to be withheld for revision. But, so long as it is customary for members to thus withhold their speeches at pleasure, it is not fair to criticise Chairman Wilson for doing as others do.

Ia the open letter referred to, Mr. to speak for the manufacturers and workingmen of his btatc, denies that any of the latter were coerced into signing remonstrances against the Wilson bill and challenges Chairman Wilson to proof to the contrary. Considering Mr. Walker's refusal to present to Congress certain resolutions, favoring the passage of the AViTcnn hil! aHnntrvl trln j- uiaiit- zation in one of the towns ot his district, on the ground that he, Mr. Walker, did not believe that the petitioners nieant what they said or knew what was good for them, assumption to speak for the workingmen of Massachusetts, may be fairly open to question.

Another of. Mr. Walker's achievements was to contend, in debate with Bourkc Cockran, that the free gift to Americans ot $200,000,000 cf cotton ana woolen goods would be a deplorable misfortune. Hat, in this instance, Mr. Walker has done the country the service of directing particular attention to what Chairman Wilson said on this matter of re-.

monstrance, purporting to emanate from w.orkingmen, against the reformation of the McKinley tariff. We quote from the Congressional Record report of the speech referred to Mr. Wilson Some gentleman on the other side of the House 1 did not catch bjs name presented some protests of workingmen as he said, itepuulicaiis and Democrats asaiust the passage of this bill. Air. Chairman, there is li-jtiiing different in the methods of the protected industries from what they have always been in the past, except that with greater power, 'with the command of greater wealth, and assisted oy itie eomtaereiai crisis ana tiara times, they are exercising over their employes a coercive power mat fills the petition boxes of this House with their jeti-tioiis.

Applause. I have received, as 1 came to the House this morning, a letter from a tormer constituent of mine, who me that he has been discharged from the steel works at Youngstown, Uhio, because he refused to sign a petition against the passage of the Lull. Applause on tne Democratic fcide. My mail is full every day Mr, Apsley and Mr. Heiner rose.

The Chairman Does the gentleman from West Virginia yield? Mr. Wilson will yield to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Heiner) for --a question. Mr. Heiner The gentleman has remarked that petitions coming here from laboring men come by and through coercion, i wish to say that I have pre-tented and thought to the attention of this committee the petitions of over e.lwo workingmen.

I have presented petitions from tb-e employes of the Amalgamated Association under men who have been locked out and are to-day locked out iu my district, and certainly they ure not coerced in this matter. Mr. Lane That is coercion itseif. Mr. Wiison if locking out is not coercion in the estimation of the gentleman.

1 wvuiu like to know what is. Laughter and applause on the Democratic siue. Mr. Denson That is bulldozing relmed. Mr.

Wilson That is exactly what it is. It is a sy-tem of bulldozing that is rt.sorti.d to on such octaiionj. ilie manufacturers lock out the employes, and thi-y cyn afford to do it, Lecaute thay have accumulated a eurpius that taeds a market are falsely -and brutally attempting to make men believe that it is done by reason of the of a new tariff bili. AppUue on the Democratic siae.J Mr. Heiner that the petitions I have presented wane from mtii niiouc rot in any sense of tne word coerced.
