It is the king of metals, the most plentiful and yet the most valuable of all. There are few countries on the globe which have not more or less of it, and some in which it exists in great abund ance, but where it has never been utilized, others where it exists in abundance but cannot be utilized to any great extent from the absence of coal and limestone necessary to its utilization. In this country it exists in great abundance, but nowhere is its ex istence so common, and in such great quantity and covering such a wide area as in the Southern States. It is found in belts reach ing from the .Potomac to the Rio Grande, and from Kentucky to Floriaa, some of the deposits being equal in quantity and quality to those of the famed Lake Superior region. As a general thing the most ex tensive of these deposits, which can be worked most easily and to the best advantage, are in close prox imity to coal and lime stone, both of which are necessary lo convert the ore into workable iron, and these are commandable at a low price com pared with other sections, which, taken in connection with the cheap ness of the ore itself, must eventually give the South a monopoly of the iron-making business. Twenty years ago there was very little iron made in the South. Ten years ago there much more, but little compared with the amount made now. And yet while iron is found over such a wide range of territory and exists in many localities in such great, practically inexhaustible abun dance, the mining of the ore and the making of iron, as industries, have been entered upon in only a few of the Southern States, Kentucky, Ten nessee, Virginia, Georgia and Ala bama. To these North Carolina and Texas will soon be added, for the in dustry is beginning to attract atten tion and capital in both of these States. For a new industry it has grown with marvellous rapidity in the South and is still, we might say, in its in fancy. In 1880 the South, made 350,436 tons ot pig iron, in 1890 this was , increased to 1,780,909 tons, an increase of 408.20 per cent These figures, taken from 'the census re port," we venture to say cannot be exhibited by any other section in the world. ; There are reasons for this, how ever, and reasons which will con tinue for years to come to push this industry to the front until the South has practically a monopoly of the iron market. It is an established fact that iron can be made more cheaply in the South than in any portion of this country, at a cost of from $8.55 to $12.90 a -turn as com pared to $12. to $15 in the cheapest section of the North, our highest figures being but very little above their lowest - It is believed that it can and will be made at figures con siderably below these, so that in the matter of competition, other things oeing equal, the South can more than hold her own with other iron producing sections, not only in this country ;birt - in Europe, t. however large their products may be. - The probabilities are thattheyn; crease of the iron product forUhe next ten years : wilL.be relatively: much greater than fortheUast teiv for the consumption bf iron more than keeps pace with the increase of population. " In discussing this subject in his speech at Knoxville, Tenn., refer ring to the future of the South as an iron manufacturing section, Hon. Jere Baxter said: '-rron, is the meter as well as the mo tor of civilization. All trade is govern ed by its price, and its consumption in the United States is increasing annually not only in quantity but per capita. In this country the per capita consumption has doubled in about seventeen years, and the population doubles every twenty-eight years. This gives a double ge ometrical progression, and if these ra tios should continue until 1917, we should consume 62,000,000 tons of iron. Should this country consume 62,000,000 tons at that time, and should the South, produce one-half of that amount, or say 31,000,000 tons, and should it receive $12 a ton therefor, the Southern iron in terest then would yield the enormous amount of $372,000,000, or an amount greater than the present annual income from the cotton crop, which would re sult ultimately in giving the Southern country a monopoly of both tlje cotton and the iron markets." MINOR MENTION. The Reed gang got in its work in the so-called House of Representa tives Tuesday. By their urgent ap peals they succeeded in securing the presence of enough ot the Republi can absentees to give them a quo rum without any of the Democrats, and then drunk and wild with suc cess they proceeded with their devil ment. The only Democrat present when the roll was called at the ooen ing was Mr. O'Ferrall, of Virginia, the other Democrats remaining in the lobby awaiting developments. For some time they lacked two of a quorum. The Sergeant-at-Arms and pages were sent out to scour the town, when one of these was found and the other about the same time put in an appearance. Mr. O'Ferrall finding further resistance futile left the chamber. Then the infamous work was done in short or der and with fiendish delight. Mr. Venable, of Virginia, was unseated and Langston declared elected and sworn in. Drunk with this victory they then proceeded, without previ ous notice, even to many of the Re publican members, to call up the case of Miller, colored, vs. Elliot, of South Carolina, and in opposition to the protest of Mr. Kerr, Republican, of Iowa, who thought some reason should be given for calling up this case, they unseated Elliot and seat--ed Miller. After a two weeks' con test, thus in a few minutes they per petrated one outrage and capped it by the perpetration of another, which was so suddeasprung that even many of the Republicans were taken by surprise, but they danced up to the crack of the whip of the bosses and voted for both, the only Republican voting no in the Langs ton case being Mr. Cheadle, of In diana, Miller being seated without division. Thus ended the big fili buster, and the gang triumphed in the perpetration of two more colos sal outrages. The House under Reed long since ceased to be a deliberative body, except in the sense that it proceeds in its devil ment with deliberation. It is an abuse of language to call it a House of Representatives. It is a mob led by a few bolters, who have no re gard for law, public opinion or decency. Hon. William E. Russell, the Dem ocratic candidate for Governor of Massachusetts, is one of the coming men. He is only 32 years old and one of the "brightest men in this country. He has run twice and if he cuts down the Republican vote this time as he did in the two previ ous elections he will be the next Governor of the Bay State. In 1888 there was a majority of 28,669 agaipst him which he cut down in 1889" -to 6,775. There has been a great change of public sentiment in Massachusetts within the past year, and especially since the discussion of the tariff question began. This change has been quite marked among iron and woollen manufacturers and their employes whose prosperity is dependent upon free raw materials, and which they have endeavored in vain to secure, the Republican tariff tinkers being deaf to their arguments and petitions. By the compromise between the House and Senate tariff conference committees the tax on manufactured tobacco, and snuff will be six cents a pound instead of eight, the present rate as provided in the Senate bill, and four, as provided in the House bill. They split the difference, so that after all the tinkering and all: the promises of Republican candidates for Congress in this and other tobac co manufacturing States to abolish the internal f revenue r system 'they agreed to lop off two cents.a pound on this -necessarjr of life?- asv MjraWin domi calls it. - This -puts Messrs. BrowerindEwart in a bad fix for it estops them from playing the aboli tion of the internal revenue system card, which they have played to some purpose in previous campaigns; It seems that the only hitch now between the tariff conference com mittees is on the sugar and binding twine schedules, the House Commit tee insisting that the Senate Commit tee shall make concession's in these. So far the Senate Committee has made concessions in the points of difference, especially the metal and glassware schedules over which there was the most contention, the com promise in some instances securing the rates provided in the House .bill and in others an increase of rates provided in the Senate bill, the pro tected manufacturers coming out on top in nearly every instance. The people receive no. more considera tion in this tariff tinkering than last year's June bugs. STATE TOPICS. It is somewhat remarkable the rapidity with which the culture of tobacco has spread throughout a number of the eastern counties of this State when we remember that until within the past few years the east ern farmer knew practically nothing about the culture and the treatment of the weed. The success they have met with not only establishes the in dustry as a permanent one in those counties but will cause it to be ex tended into other counties where it has not yet been ventured upon. The results in the way of profits as attained by many of the planters in Wilson, Nash and some others are far ahead of anything realized in the famed Piedmont belt, the prices realized per acre in many cases be iug much larger, and we think on the average larger. We rejoice' at this for with cotton and tobacco combined the outlook for the east trn farmer promises well. CURRENT COMMEN" The failure of the eleventh census as an exact, or even a rea sonably approximate enumeration of the people of the United States, is now recognized almost everywhere outside of the office where Mr. Rob ert P. Porter's assistants are still ci phering away from incomplete data to untrustworthy averages. JV. Y. Sun, Dem. It seems impossible for the Fifty-first Congress to do a right thing unless it shall do it a wrong way. For example, the Aldrich plan of Reciprocity is coupled with a grant of unconstitutional and impro per power to the President in order to put the Reciprocity in operation. Free Trade is an awkward thing tor Protectionist handling. Phil.Record, Dent. To all thoughtful men the situation is full of gravity. Old pre cedents are being brushed aside. Old landmarks are being swept away. The' rule of brute force and arbitrary will.has taken the place of delibera tion and reason. The compact be tween the money power and the par ty which it restored to control of the Government is being carried out in legislation. N. Y. World, Dem. Gen. Gordon and Col. Nor wood should stop trying to poke holes in one another's reputation and turn their attention to something in which the public is interested. Friend ly emulation to see which can tell us most about the practical needs of Georgia and the best way to re lieve them would be more to the point and more compatible with the character of men qualified for Uni ted States Senators.

How a Fight in Congress Before the War was Suddenly Interrupted. Washington Special to St Louis Globe Democrat. The bloodless and bruiseless fist fight between Congressman Wilson, of Washington, and Beckwith, of New Jersey, has started a flow of reminiscences of other ludicrous spats on the floor of the. House. One of the best stories is told by Colonel Hinton, who was a news paper correspendent here before the war. Some phase of the slavery question was up in the House. Owen Lovejoy, of Illinois, had been talking, and, as usual, he had aggra- vated the Southerners, Barksdale, of Mississippi, replied. Hot words passed. This was not the Barks dale of recent service in the House, but General Barksdale, who was killed during the war. As the inter change of invectives grew more and more personal it seemed that an encounter was unavoid able. Roger A. Pryor, then a young Congressman from Virginia, raised the lid of his desk and slipped out a pistol. Several others got ready. Just as the crisis was at hand a giant of a man from Wisconsin, named Potter, suddenly reached over from the Republican side of the house and made a grab for Barks dale. The Mississippian had long hair, which he always wore carefully brushed. To the astonishment of the whole House the luxuriant hair proved to be a wig. It came off, of course. Potter stood there dumb founded, holding the magnificent covering aloft and looking first at the hair and then at the bald head beneath. The House held its breath "for a moment, and then roar after roar of laughter drowned out all feel ing of resentment. Pryor raised the lid of his desk, put back his pistol and laughed. Lovejoy sat down con vulsed. Potter awkwardly restored the wig and then both he and Barks dale smiled. There was no more thought of fightiug over slavery that day. A SNAKE CHARMER'S FATE. He Played Onoe Too Often "With His Pet Family of Battlers. Pottsville Dispatch to N. Y. Herald. Old David Harpster, a gray-headed snake charmer of this city, met a a horrible death on Tuesday from the poisonous bite of a big rattle snake that turned on him while he was handling it. For many years the old man made a business of capturing rattlesnakes. He sold many specimens of rattlers and other American snakes to museums and circuses and "carried on a small trade in rattlesnake oil. A party of sporting men were in the bar room of John Weissinger's hotel on Tuesday night of last week when Harpster came in with a big rattlesnake in a cage. He had been drinking, and in a reckless moment he declared he would show the gen tleman how to bite off a snake's head. He took the rattler from the cage, and the monster sank its fangs into his right wrist. Harpster hur riedly replaced it in the cage and went out. Nothing was seen of him . until Thursday, when he was found hud dled up in a growth of dense weeds in a yard surrounding Lloyd's foun dry. His right . arm was swollen to an enormous size and he was half dead from pain and exposure.- He was at once taken to Andrew Brown's residence and supplied with food and drink. Dr. W. H. Robinson was Called in. The ; snake charmer demanded of him certain nerbs, with which he said he could banish the poison from his system. The herbs were provided, but the poison had seized too firm a hold on its victim; his condition rapidly grew worse and last Tuesday he died. He was 73 years old. 1 nCDCnM A - - Cardinal Newman, until of. late cyears he lost the Jise of hi fingersWas an accomplished performer on the viola.. fJbhn : Sargent,', the ; art is V: who does most of his .work "in London is said fo be the only American who can command ,1,000 for painting' a por traits . .. . - ; , .

"A good way to win elections," says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, "is to deserve to win." It is the best way, but we are afraid Republicans would be forever barred if it was the only way. Memphis Avalanche, Dem, Our Republican contemporar ies have a great deal to say from time to time about their love for and devo tion to the Uuion soldiers, the "men who saved the Union." We observe, however, that they have no special love or admiration for veterans who are Democrats. Mobile Register Dem. : Speaker Reed paid $5 apiece for votes. At this rate it is plain the Re publicans must have campaign funds, and that they cannot afford to reduce tariff duties. If such rates are to rule in States that are considered "reliably Republican." how very costl elections must be in pivotal States, Louisville Courier-Journal, Dem. Senator Ingalls in his Pittsburg speech spoke of his "distinguished friend, the taciturn Senator Quay, who says little, but does a great deal.' It is the same Quay whom Representative Kennedy pronounced "a branded crimi nal," and the New York Tribune said that there is no doubt that Kennedy voiced the views of a maionty of the Republican party. When Ingalls calls Quay his friend, one is reminded of the saying concerning "birds ot a feather. Cleveland Plain Dealer, Dem. - Remarkable Rescue. Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, 111., makes the statement that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs ; she was treated for a month by her family physician, but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of consumption. and that no medicine could cure her, Her druggist suggested Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. She bought a bottle, and to her delight found her self benefited from the first dose. She continued its use, and after taking ten bottles found herself sound and well, now does her own housework, and is as well as she ever was. Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at Robert R.

Price within rear; all. - 1 HE-NO TEA FREE. " Exaggerated claims in many adver tisements have made people tired." This recent saying has the right ring and we accept its suggestion. We are the importers of HE-NO TEA. We propose increasing its sale in Wilmington. Not by praising it, but by giving you, free of all cost, enough HE-NO TEA to last a week. " The proof of the pudding is in the eating." An old adage which suggests another, "A word to the wise is suf ficient." Send us a postal card with your ad dress, and, for a limited time, wte will mail any one in Wilmington, free, a pack ago of HE-NO TEA, and an interesting book about tea. You risk a postal card. We risk your liking the tea so well that you will continue to use it. If you do not we make a loss. Thus we show our con fidence in the merits of HE-NO TEA. MARTIN GILLET & CO., Established jSii.)
