Everything seems to indicate that
our farmers will realize good prices
for their grain this year. A drouth
has preHiled in Southern Russia,
our greatest rival in the wheat mar
ket; streams and wells have disap-
peared under the long-continued
aidity, and fields of grain are said
to have been actually burned up. In
France, Germany and England the
crops are very poor, and a heavy
lraught will be made upon the gran
aries Of the USited States to sup
ply the deficiency. |

Senator Thurman,s Lies.

Thurman opened his campaign al
Wsverly with an exceedingly long
string of falsehoods, among Others
being a charge that Senator Morton
voted for the salary grab. Our rec
ollection of the course pursued by
Mr.. Morton is that he favored an
increase of the salaries of the Presi-
dent and his Cabinet officers and the
Judges of the Supreme Court, but
opposed the increase of the salaries
of Congressman. We now learn,
through a private source, that Sena-
tor Morton has authorized an un-
equivocal denial of the charge made
by Senator Thurman, and character
ICES the statement that he voted for
the salary grab as false, and says
Senator Thurman knew it to be
false when he made the charge. So
much for that Thurman falsenood.-

twenty lives we're lost. The scenes
around the burning square were ex-
citing and terrible. Parents threw

Hon. Alphonso Hart, in his speech
at Xenia, after reviewing the history
of the Republican party, concludes
as follows:
But you answer, all this is true;
''but the work Of your party is over.
There are selfish and corrupt men in
it, and its usefulness is done" This
is the cry of men who are themselves
anxious for power, and the wish is
father to the thought. l grant that
here and there corrupt men and evils
are found, but the party, and by that
I mean the great body of the men
who compose the organization, is
sound to the core, and its work and
worth are only Just begun. A tree

The Postofice Department does
what it can to earn the popular i'll
will by persisting in petty, picayune
practices that would ruin any pri-
vate business. Thus it is stated
that it decides that when a letter,
through inadvertance, reaches its
destination with only a one cent
stamp thereon, it must be treated as
entirely unpaid, and is subject to
postage at the rate of six cents for
each half ounce or fraction thereof.

| This action OF the Com mmlttlee eV
identity displeased the editor of the
Fremont Journal, who tells US that
the effort was sprung because Ger
tain few were unable to rule the do
ings of the Convention. He hints
that Messrs. Everett, Sanford and
Rhodes desired to vent their spleen
Sgainst certain candidates. Those OF
cur readers who know the members
of the Convention will be amused at
the fling of the Journal. The idea
that Everett, Sanford and Rhodes
should vent their spleen against GER
tain candidates before the Conven-
ton had even decided to make nom
nations is original with the Journal.
SGndUsky Register.
And that is about the extent Of
Mack's ability to read an article un-
derstandingly. We said as follows,
and in order to aid Mack's under
standing use a few italics. We
doubt even then if the meaning will
penetrate his Uranium:
"If it is ever intended TO put a
peoples ticket in the field, let the
call be made when no Conventions
are pending, and let it be held before
either party has put their forces in
the field, and the people may then
have some confidence in it. But
when IA peoples ticket sprung be-
cause a certain few have been una
bic to rule the doings Of a conven-
ton, it looks bad on its face, and
indicates all the interest the movers
have in it is to vent their spleen
against certain candidates, or rather
to endeavor to obtain, through such
a movement, what they failed to get
an their osVn cOaUeati0R."
If Mack was half as wise as he
would have others think, he would
not SO often expose his ignorance,
The Democratic Convention had
been held the week before. Dissat-
5isfaction existed, and many Demo
Gratis urged a peoples ticket, but
most of them wanted certain candi-
dates on it. Nothing was heard of a
peoples ticket until after the Demo
cratic Convention was held, (the a
Convention referred to- Then the
peoples ticket idea was sprung and
talked up, with certain Democratic
candidates on the ticket who had
failed to obtain nominations in their
oaon Conuention. Messrs. Everett,
Sanford and Rhodes will scarcely
thank Mack for his supercerviceable
effort to transfer them to the Democ-
racv.

We will extend it for him shortly by leaving
the yard and stables for the house.
This is very well. But our protec-
tive tariff is a very comprehensive
thing. Perhaps it would be more
fair if the World would mention in
connection with these articles the
duties levied to protect the farmer.
When it gives the duty on blankets,
Why not the extreme duty of from
80 81 per cent. on the farmers wool?
When he shows how the farmer is
oppressed by the duty of 80 per cent.
on rope, why not give the farmers
protective duty of 80 per cent. on
hemp.
With the farmers grievance by
the protective duty on harness, why
not give the farmers compensating
protective duty of 10 per cent. on
raw hides and 25 percent. on leath-
er? With the duty on the farmers,
horse brush should be mentioned the
the duty of Is cents per pound to
protect farmers bristles And to
offset the other articles that should
be mentioned, the duty of 90 cents a
bushel on wheat, Of which Canada
raises a fine article; of one cent
pound on pork and beef; of % cents
bushel on potatoes, Is cents on bar
ley, 4 cents on butter, 8 cents on
cheese, ten cents q bushel on oats,
20 per cent. on animals, 10 per cent.
on green fruits, 20 per cent. on wood,
and so on, through chickens, eggs,
turnips, garden Vegetables, and ev-
erything the farmer has 10 sell. The
articles we have enumerated above
Canada raises in abundance, under
a financial system which makes pro
duction cheaper than ours. These
duties are laid to prevent the manu-
facturers Of New England, and the
towns all along the Canada border
from supplying themselves with
these articles of food from the
cheaper products of Canada. They
are laid especially to protect our
farmers, the protective tariff is
very comprehensive thing. The far
mers seem to cling to their part as
stoutIy as the manufacturers. 1t
may be that universal protection is
a fallacy; but let US have fair play
in this showing of oppression by
protective duties.-CGn Gazette.
