William Nelson Ckomwkll, r.f New
York, who returned f -om PariB the other
day afer having completed the sale of
the Panama canal to the United States,
is now, in many respecte, the most re
markable figure at the American bar,
says the New York World. Aside from
h s other chums to ce'e'jrity, he possesses
the unique distinction of having received
the moat enormous single fee ever paid
for legal services. For selling the Pan
ama canal, he is popularly credited with
having been paid $1,000,000. In reality
he got much more, and 52,000,000 would
be much nearer the mark, says the
World. At any rate he is now in posi
tion to retire and give other lawyers a
chance to achieve fame and fortune.
TARIFF AIDS PLUNDERERS.
The much disputed question of how
much' cheaper the trusts sell their prod
ucts to foreigners than to the people of
the United States has been settled as far
as steel rails are concerned. The evi
dence was produced by Senator Bacon
in a speech made in the Senate April
25th. He conclusively Bhows by the
evidence of Mr. Wright, General Man
ager of the Macon, Dublin and Savan
nah Railroad Company, that he had
paid $29 a ton for steel rails for his rail
road which the steel truBt offered to sell
for $20 if exported to Honduras. Mr.
Wright, who is a Republican, was quite
indignant at being thus plundered by
the steel trust and says: "We, American
citizens, paid to this American industry
$33,000 in excess of what foreigners
would have been compelled to pay."
A bonus in excess of $000 a mile is
quite a stiff tax to pay the steel trust,
and Senator Bacon stated that the rail
roads of the United States have for the
six years beginning in 189S and ending
in 1903 used 12,544,242 tons of rails and
paid for them $150,530,904 more than the
same rails would have been sold for to
foreigners. This enormous extra profit
from Americans is arrived at from the
testimony of Mr. Schwab, who was Pres
ident of the steel trust, that rails could
be manufactured for $12 a ton and sold
at a fair profit in this country at $10 a
ton. The average price during the six
years for which the computation is made
was $2S per ton, which is the price to
day. The difference between $10 and
$2S makes the amount stated by Senator
Bacon.
Most people would not be especially
interested in how much the Bteel trust
plunders the railroads, except that the
high prices of rails undoubtedly add to
the rates for passenger and freight, so
that indirectly every one that uses the
railroads pays his share of that enor
mous bonus.
The tariff duty on steel rails is ST 84 a
ton, and this tax prevents foreign rails
from being imported and thus keeping
the price within reasonable bounds.
With this evidence of plunder that the
tariff allows the trust, who, except the
"stand patters," will say that the steel
trust schedule should not be revised?
And the evidence that the same tariff
plunder is fostering other triiBts in like
manner is the reason the Democrats de
mand that all the schedules that shelter
trusts should also be revised.
Former Days Recalled.
(Carlisle Mercury.)
Mr. Perry Jefferson had an old desk
that he used when he was Sheriff of Ma
Bon County some twenty-four years ago,
brought to this city and opened last
week for the first time in all those years.
He found beBide many old papers, sev
eral pieces of old French and Spanish
coins that he had forgotten.
Several copies of the Maysvillo Bulle
tin were handed us and we found many
reminders of the long ago. Tho name
of Wiufield Hancock and Wm. IngliBh
for President and Vice President, and
E. C. Phis.ter, for Congress, were ilying
at the head of the Democratic ticket.
A ecoro or more of roosters wero crow
ing over a great Democratic victory for
Judge Colo, Attorney Curran, Sheriff
Pickett and Circuit Clerk Parry. Many
local items contain tho names of promi
nent MayBville and Mason County people,
the majority of whom have "passed over
tho river,"
The wheat harvest in the county will
be finished this week, weather permitting.
CROPS IN KENTUCKY.
Tlipy Have Improved Under Recent Favor
able Condition and the Prospects
Are Urisht.
I Weekly Bulletin of Weather Bureau. July 5th. 1
The temperature averag-d considerably
below normal during the week. Local
showers occurred over the greater portion
of the State and in some places the rain
fall was heavy. Some Blight damage was
done by Hooding lowlands. The rains
were very timely and have improved the
general condition of crops quite decidedly.
The harvesting of wheat is nearly com
pleted ; the yield promises to be much
better than was f xpected and the quality
xeellent. In some localities the con
tinued wet weather has caused sprout
ing in the shock, but the extent of this
damage is not great. Tobacco is all set
and is generally growing well. The acre
age ia less than usual on account of a
scarcity of plants in some sections. Corn
is good color aud looks vigorous, but the
nights have been too' cool for rapid
growth. OatB have improved and, though
headed low, looks quite promising.
Garden truck and Irish potatoes are in
first-class condition.
Fruit does not promise well. Apples
are dropping badly in many places and
are knotty and irregular. In some local
ties peaches are rotting on the trees.
Blackberries are very promising.
Pastures and meadows have improved
quite decidedly. The meadows are
rather weedy, but the yield will be bet
ter than expected.
Farm work has been delayed to some
extent by frequent rains, but it is gener
ally well up.

The Aches and Pains Will Disappear if the
Advice of This Maysville Citizen
is Followed.
A'woman's back has many aches and

Backache is really kidney ache ;
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills cure it.

Mrs. John E. BurnB, of the West End
near Pogue's, says : "I am greatly pleased
with the benefit I received from the use
of Doan's Kidney Pills which I procured
at J. Jas. Wood & Son's drugstore, corner
of West Second and Market streets. Uso
proved them to bo the best kidney rem
edy that I know of. I have heard a
number of persons speak of the relief
obtained from the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills."
