Jefferson so effectuahy exposed and crushed.
Philosophically considered, there is some
thing broader and higher and better in
Democracy than its partisan aspects. Men
who are at all qualified 10 illustrate in
thought and speech the principles of De-
mocracy never forget that they are OF the
people. of the masses, position and a con-
ditIon in which there are no degrading or
vulgarizing elements, but rather those COM
nonsense qualities which are majestic in
their humanizing and elevating inhuencies
upon society. Self-respect and dignity of
department are neither sacrificed nor di
miniShed by maintaining intimate relations
with the people; on the contrary, such
affiliations exalt citizenship and crown
it with a dignity which will be
sought for in vain in the ranks
OF those who favor aristocratic rather than
never forget that all the rights and prlvi-
leges which they enjoy as citizens belong
equally to all the people. and that the proper
appreciation and use of the great franchises
which Democracy has conferred crowns
each citizen with the exaltation of sovereign
ty and the rights OF equality. Hence, no
greater compliment could be paid the Dem
ocratic party than 70 declare it to be a party
of the people, profoundly interested in
their welfare, watchful of their interests,
and ever ready to champion their cause.
The Democratic party sees with deep con-
Germ the dangerous increase of monopoly
power in the country. II is for the interest
of the people that tariff taxation
should be promptly reduced. The tariff as
it now exists. has created numerous power
full mOnOpolies, and their influence and
their money are even now being used to per-
petuate the fragrant wrongs of which the
people justly complain. We have a low
duty on diamonds and they are imported to
the value of millions. We have q high
duty on blankets, which amounts almost to
as in 1881 they were imported
to the amount of about $1,000 only, but
when a demand is made to modify the
tariff and reduce taxation. the cry is made
that the Democratic party is attacking
conservative property interests" The
Democratic party is unchangeably opposed
to class legislation. to making laws for the
special benefit of certain interests and in
direct conflict with the general welfare, and
having made this record it is ready 10 ask

Tho Difference.
EKOkomo Dispetch.I

One OF the daily papers on Monday re-
lated an incident that illustrates clearly the
difference in Senatorial temperament. Ex.
Speaker Ridpath, of the Indiana Legislature.
Stalwart Republican, wss in Washington
City last week and called at the CAPITOL.
he sent his card 10 Senator Ben Harrison
hoping thereby to get an invitation to
a seat in the Senate. Senator Bonnie
came out, shook hands with Mr..
Ridpath, and stood with him in the corridor
for several minutes aad engaged his caller
IN polite conversation; and then. excusing
himself BY saving that he must go back into
his seat, babe Mr.. Ridpath good-day, leaving
him standing in the lobby. As soon as the
junior Indiana Senator's form had disaI =
peared within the Senate, Mr.. Ridpath pre-
scented another card TO the Doorkeeper, re-
questing that it be carried to Senator VOoT-
hees. Presently the messenger returned.
and, addressing Mr.. Itidpath. said: Senator
Voorhees, SAYS please walk into Marble
Room" Subsequently Senator Harrison
was very much surprised at seeing Mr.. Rid
path on the floor of the Senate, being intro
duced To President pro tempOre Davis and
Senator's generally, both Republicans anG
Democrats, by Senator VOORHEES,. 4 friend
OF Senator Dan remarked: The Wabash
statesman is not ashamed of his Hoosier
brethren, whether in Washington or at
home, and all who call on him in Wash
ingtOn or elsewhere are always made 10 feel
that he is welcome"

THE DENooRArro POLICY

The New York Times ana some other Re-
make it appear that the Democratic party is
the ayOwed foe of capital. The Times re-
marks:
If the Democratic party can be said TO be shap-
ing anything like definite policy with reference
TO the fall elections and those of the next Presi
Dental year. it against the conservative proper
ty interests.
Starting out with such proposition. 1t is
easy enough to understand the scope of the
Times argument to sustain it. A puerile
falsehood is always fruitful of trivial vulgar
ity when an attempt is made TO give it the
force of truth. In stating tina. the Demo
cratic party is shaping policy in antagon-
ism 10 conservative property interests" the
Times descends to the level where demagOg
ism and mendacity meet and embrace. The
Times furthermore says:
L. has long been the characteristic disposition of
that party to seize upon positions that address
themselves 10 the less intelligent glasses of the
people. This may be necessity rather than a
choice, for the reason that the Republican party
havin- in general better appreciation of the
principles OF political economy occupy the better
stand CUNT and leave only the inferior to the OPP
position. IL Is the boast of the Democratic lead
ers that they represent the interests Of the great
of the people, especially those of the labor
ing classes; aud they by constant inference, if
not by direct assertion, preach the pernicious
doctrine that there is necessary conflict between
capital and labor.
We do not care to object to the Times in
timation that the Democratic party is the
party Of the people, the great masses. the
toilers. the wage men, the wealth producers
the men who build and operate all the
great industries Of the continent, but IN
these days OF Common Schools, of books
and newspapers, the Times and Republican
organs generally which refer to working
people as ignorant and degraded, assuming
that Republicans are more intelligent and
better qualified TO pass upon questions OF
political economy, perpetrate ISLANDERS and

Is CORN KING2

The season for blowing and planting in
this latitude being close at hand our read
ers, we conclude, will not object TO a few
facts and figures relating to corn. 1t has
been the custom, when discussing agricul-
tural products. to assign to corn an inferior
rank as compared with wheat and cotton (;
in fact, there are number of products
which in commercial circles have had pre-
cedence, when, in fact, corn is rightfully
king and should have long since been
crowned and recognized as such. Let us
see statistics for 1879 give sum totals of pro-
duction and value as follows:
Articles. Production. Value
Corn. bushes.... ..-..l 5i7 9Ol, 80 S5S0 1856 2l7
Wheat, bushels.......-.. as 1850 1900 ~
Here we have it that in both weight and
value corn takes its rightful place at the
head of the list If we were to select any
other year during the last decade results
would be comparatively the same-corn
would be king. In the year 1880 Indiana
produced I15, 4S2, 800 bushels of corn worth
on the farm forty cents per bushel. or S46,-
1872, 92O, while for the same year her &, 2S4,-
s5j bushels of wheat at ninety cents per
bushel on the farm Represented a value OF
So, GOT SG7, less than corn by S., csc. 553
The increased production of corn from 1870
70 1850 indicates its great value. The pro-
duction for 1870 was 76O,9i4, $40 bushels
while in 1850 it amounted to 1854 So, SIS
bushels, a gain in ten years of 993, 9i7 ,O16
bushels-more than 100 per cent. of the
product of 1881. There was exported 9S, 6lS,-
IL bushels valued at SOL, 972, 500, while the
exports Of wheat amounted Sl67 ,69S, 4S5,
aud the exports of cotton to
S2i7, 69J, 746 and it is these export figures that
are considered when the rank to be assigned
to corn as an agricultural product is under
But this is scarcely fair, for it
must be taken into consideration that corn
is exported in vast quantities in the shape
OF bacon, beef pork, lard, butter and cheese,
