‘ congressman lllll on fishing.
. May 25th Congressman Hill made a
lengthy speech on the tarid, from
which we quote the following of special
tical illustration of the eifect’ of this
bill upon a single industry in
this country. I refer to the manu-
facture of hats. The cost of. a
proof gallon of alcohol is fifteen cents,
Cctnmercial alcohol is l88 per cent‘

there. Aside from this the labor cost
ismore than four times as much here,
the prevailingidca. is far more preva
lent there than here. In this country a
man who works at stiffening hats
gets #25 per week, whereas in Steele
port, England, and in Brussels, in Bel-
gium. he sets “per week. And yet the
ded to the cost by increased taxation
, reduwd the duties 15 per cent. on
the imported article, thus seriously
handicapping the American producer.
There have been more failures in the
hat trade in my own district in two
years under the Wilson bill, both in
number and amount, than in any ten
years before. The high tax has compell
0d the use of wood alcohol except in
the finest work. Prior to 1894 wood
alcohol sold at $1.40 per gallon. Imrue

Fm Inhale schools.
The Boston Herald says the expul-
Iaent will be tried of furnishing free
baths to the school children in the base-
ments of the school houses. The matter
has been gone over carefully by those
who are authorised to examine into it,
and it is found that the experiment can
be tried in the form of spray baths with-
out large expense. No effort will be
made to compel the children to take
these baths, but evidently the comfort
and wholesomeneaa to be obtained from
them willhe so keenly appreciated by
the little folk that it will be counted a
privilege to take them.
Pertinent to this subject, it is charged
that the death rate among the public
school children of Boston is higher than
in any other city in the world, on so-
oount oi the unsanitary condition of the
school houses. The Herald makes a
very weak attempt to successfully come
