SORE BACKS, OR CALLS IN HORSES.

Rub white lead in sweet oil until good
good paint is made, and apply coating of
this to the injured place. Milk will do, where
no oil is to be had. 1t is one of the effective
applications. Some for the same difficulty
use solution Of vitrio in water, for wash
but in most cases, the white lead is to be
preferred.

THE TRUE ISSUE.

Shall the Government keep its own mon

it to speculate on!
Shall the voice of the People govern the
country, or shall the tyrannical money pow

Shall the laws prevail, or shall the banks
set aside the laws-refuse to pay their own
just debts and sacrifice the property Of their
debtorsf
Shall we have a sound currency of gold,
silver and redeemable paper, or shall we
have an irredeemable issue of deprecated

REFUSED HONoRS TO HARRISON.

If any of our readers will undergo the
trouble to refer to the fifth volume of Niles
Register, page l72, of the 9Th Number, 1918.
they will find the following passage.
at a special meeting of the Common
Council Of New York. a motion was made to
present Major General Harrison with asword

been bestowed on Decatur, Perry and others.
But the motion was NEGATIVED-Ayes S.

tyranny in their exercise of the right Of suf
frage, and we have a fair specimen of the
regard of the federal wings for the ag.
nrultural interests Of the country, the wages
of labor, and the existence of popular rights.
A combination so u~nprincipled as this should
be met promptly by that large class Of peo-
pie engaged in woolgrowing. No farmer
sho-ld dispose of good wool for less than
forty cents per pound, when by storing it for
a few months he must realise that price or
even more. The present price offered for
the raw materials is altogether ~disproportion-
ate to that demanded for the finished fabric.
The corporation kings will not hold of for a
great length of time; the large companies
will not stop their mills or suspend opera
tons to their own disadvantage, and the
very fact of curtailment. will have a tenden-
cy to improve the market for cloths. II is
better for farmers who have but a clip, to
procure their wool manufactured upon shares,
than sell at a loss. Let the industrious
yeomanry Of the country mark this attempt

LOW PRICES AND HARD TIMES.

There can be no doubt as to the pres.
ent existence of a powerful combination a.
mong the British wing politicians and great
corporations throughout New ] ~ngland.--and
in fact the whole coun'ry.-to reduce prices
and manufacture "hard times for political
eject and pecuniary profit. Every nerve is
strained hy them TO bring the entire agri-
cultural and productive class of the community
completely under their control, and to re-
duce their conmod ties to the loves, posi-
bic prices. Take, for instance, the single
article of wool, al the present time. Can
any sensible man doubt the fact, that the
great manufacturers are e%ndeavoring to de-
press its prices, and bring it far below its re-
al worth. The rich and powerful manufacture
inc corporations of this country are mostly
in the hands of the federalists, who have a
t,Do ~folf-objsct now in rev, viz: to raise a
great clamor, against the present Admins
tration on account oflow prices, and profit by
the existing state Of things TO buy in the
stock of raw material at the cheapest posi-
bic rate. Their exertions are seconded by
the leading federal politicians, for the sole
object of raising a hue and cry against Gov
eminent on the score of reduced prices, and
to bring its honest and well directed en-
deavors into disrepute with the great ag-
ricultural population.
A huge outcry is raised, that the opera
tons of the administration have had tenden-
cy 10 reduce the price of home products,
and among others the article of wool. is
this the case? Has not the prize Of wool
been exposed to more frequent fluctuations
than that of most other commodities? Let
us 90 back n few years and examine. An
intelligent wool grower tell us that in 1928
he sold a superior lot of wool for 25 cents
per Id, and in 1886 he took sixty cents per
pound for a large quantity greatly inferior in
quality to that sold in 1923! Here then we
have seen the prices ranging from the highest
to the lowest possible extreme, under Ad-
ministrations of the same political character.
What mismanagement-wha "hostllity to
the ~peoples's interests" could have induced
such an Administration to raise the prices Of
an important staple at one period, and reduce
them to the lowest rate at another! Does
not every intelligent individual know that
the principle cause OF the fuctuatlon exists
in the present banking system, in connec'
ton with the great manufacturing corpora
tons of the country?
These specializing politicians know that
the farmers are and have ever been the
true friends of democracy; and hence their
object in trying TO force them into a sup.
port of federalism through wrong and suf
fering. Take this fact in connection witt
their recent plan Of reducing the wages o

THE TARIFF.

The wings are again talking about the Ia
,if. TO an extent and in a manner that shows
that they intend ifthey can regain the pow
ar. to fasten the old tariff of 1923, a second
time upon the people. Tyler and the Tariff
is the motto of their gaudiest f1ag>-the
TARIFF is the watch word of a maiori-
" of their orators and newspapers. Here
then we have a disclosure of principle
If Harrison is elected, we are again to have
the privilege of paying two dollars per bushel
for salt and nine shillings per pound for tea.
If Harrison is elected, every article which
we eat, drink and wear, is to come to US
loaded with taxes. Are our farmers pre-
pared for it? Are they prepared to be tax
ed a dollar on every web of coarse cotton.
and eight cents on every yard of calico, that
manufacturers may grow rich with greater
facility, and play the aristocrat with greater
assurance! Is the farmer prepared to pay
aheavy tax on every pound Of iron and steel,
which enters into the composition ofhis farm
ing tools! Is he prepared to launch out of
his pocket, indirectly ten cents for every
gallon of molasses and forty cents for every
pound of tea, which he may have to purchase
for the use of his family? Is he prepared to

life-to pay fifty cents on every gallon of
wine, 81 cents on every pound Of r%aisins,
and fifty cents on every pound of coffee,
which the wants of his family may demandl
All this the farmer must be prepared for, if
Harrison should gain what he so heartily de-
sires-an election to the Presidency of the
United States. And for whose benefit, are
these heavy duties to be imposed, Not
surely fo. the benefit of the whole people.
II is their interest to obtain the necessaries
of life, as cheaply as they can. No SNUG
glers and manufacturers are to reap the gol-
den harvest at the expense of the people.
Smugglers and manufacturers are to be the
peculiar favorites of the government. The
moment the duties are raised to the old STAN
dard, that moment smuggling over land from
Montreal and Quebec to theUnited States,
will become the best business in the coun-
try. Thus are the hard earnings Of the far
