We received this morning the fsrst IL

new proprietor, Hon. Jacob Stotler, late
editor OF THE EMPoRIA News, and we
violate no confidence in saying that Il d
daisy. The prosperous character OF
the business which Mr.. Stotler has been
so fortunate as to secure, Is attested by
the fact that the Press contains eighteen
columns OF advertising, just half the
space of the paper. It's typo.
grapby Is very clear and pretty
and the editorial page rings
with several Of "Jake's" characteristic
articles and abounds in what may be
truly termed Interesting reading" The
paper, OF course places itself at the out
set squarely upon all those moral and
political questions Of which the editor
mas been such an able advocate for over
quarter OF a century and the people Of
Wellington will AcYer have any trouble
In finding out Just where Mr.. StotleI
stands on any issue which effects the in

His paper was received here this morn

Il GOOD TLLUSTR1TTCN

The effect of the development of man.
ufacturing industry upon the wages oil
labor is admirably illustrated by the
fact that from. 1860 TO 1872, as shown by
Carroll d. Wright, the wages IN Massa-
chusetts increased 1870 per cent. II
was during that period that the war tar
if-the highest tariff we ever had-en-
abled American enterprise to enter
every great field of industry. except the
building of ships for foreign commerce,
which our government neglected TO en-
courage.
or the crisis that reckless spectators
brought upon US IN 1888 we should say,
once for ell, that by disturbing our in
dustrial interests, suspending labor and
creating an artificial glut of goods, 1t
acted precisely as large reduction OF
the tariff would have done. Wages fell
and continued to fall until business re-
vived in 1880. 1t would never have re-
vIved if the tariff had been largely re-
duced, as some suggested that it should
be.
In the last three years, however, wages
nearly recovered their highest level nay,
the former rate was actually surpassed
If we take into account the lower cost OF
every article of necessity.
The American labOrer has two enc
mIes-the speculalor and the free trader
Let him know them and fight them. One
can be dispatched at the next election
the other Is q sly fellow, but his time
will come.

TWO CANDIDATES.

Troy Chief: John A. Martin has been
fighting the battles Of Republicanlsm
from the territorial days down TO the
present time. G. w. Click has been
lighting tie Republican party during
the same period. John A. Martin went
TO the front and fought for the Union. G.
w. Click staId at home and resolved
THAT the war was failure. He opposed
the Republican party every step 1t took
10 save the country. At the very out
break OF the rebellion, when Republi-
cans and even Democrats were struggling
to place the city government of
Atchison In loyal hands. before hundreds
Of brave men went out TO the field of
battle. so that the enemies Of the Union
might not be in power at home, G. w.
Click threw his whole influence in favor
Of the dIsloyal element. He and John
A. Martin had q personal encounter in
Atchison on this question and they ex-
changed blows. Now that they are
pitted against each other for the votes
of the people, Republicans cannot hest
tate how to vote. The pioneer settlers,
who remember the days Of old, the SOL
dlers who have filed Kansas since the
war, and the young Republicans who
are casting their first votes, all have
equal reason TO vote for the one and
against the other.

UAPPTACE AND DYUopOE


Mrs. Elizabeth CadY Stanton contrib
utes TO the last number of the North
American Review careful and serious
argument in favor of liberal divorce
That is a side which has scarcely been
presented since the recent agitation of
the divorce question, and yet, judging
from the laws of most OF the states, it is
the side taken by q majority OF our peO-
pie.
Mrs Stanton advocates divorce In the
interest of women, who are the chief suf-
ferers by wretched marriages, and who
consequently make up the great major
1ty Of the applications for Divorce. "No
words" she says, "can describe the In
finite outrages to which women are sub
ject in compulsory relations for which
the law gives no redress" Liberal di-
vorce laws for oppressed wives" she
adds, "are what Canada was for the
southern slaves"
But we shall not undertake 10 follow
or combat her argument, the drift OF
which can be easily inferred from the
few words we have quoted from her ar
ticle. She makes one point, however,
which deserves much more attention
than it has yet received from those VIII o
are now SO earnestly discussing the sub
ject of divorce,
The state, says Mrs. Stanton, seem.
ingly views marriage as of interior i'm
pOrtance to all other contracts, and vet,
when once made, we are told that mar.
rlages must be iDdissolubIe. Other con.
tracts, concerning land, for instance, can
be made only by people who are of age
and of sound mind. The agreement
must be in writing, must be stamped
and recorded. but q legal mar.
riage, in most of the states, may be con
tracted between boy of fourteen and q
girl of twelve without the consent oil
parents or guardians, without publica-
ton of banns, without witnesses, with.
out even the signature of the parties, the
presence of priest, or of any of the Of
icers OF the state"
That may not be a good argument In
favor of divorce, but it does suggest thai
we need reform in our laws concerning
marriage not less than in those
which relate TO divorce. A contract
so lightly and easily entered into II
not likely to be always regarded as &
solemn obligation. The demand TO b
released from Il must be frequent and
| urOanN ITndnubaaIlu - 49, fo-.~ -.
public opinion was not against divorce
If society did not regard it with disfavor
the number Of marriages dissolved
would be greatly increased, so hastily
and unadvisedly are large part of them
contracted.
As we have before said, il seems 70 us
that agitation for the mending of the di.
yorce laws should rightly be accompan
led, If not preceded, by efforts tor the
improvement of the marriage laws.

az Easy QUESTION

A Democratic paper asks if the Re
publicans can give the name OF any
country that ever prospered under pro
lection. Nothing easier in the world.
These United States increased il
wealth from 1860, after the Democrat.
lost the reins of government, to 1880, af
ter twenty years of Republican rule
from Sl4,500,O00,0O0 to $43,643, OOO, 900
In other words under twenty years o.
protection and Republican rule the
country has gained twice as much as II
did in the entire time of its prior exist
ence, which included scores of years Of
Democratic rule and free trade
tancles, and all IN all extends back som,
$50 years.
The price of labor IN this country
from 1850 to 1888, computed from the
official labor reports of Massachusetts
has increased under protection rule 2SI,
per cent, and Is now on an average 6s
per cent higher than in Great Britain.
In Massachusetts, where the population
is crowded 1t costs workingmen six pei
cent more TO live than In England, bul
taking the country as a whole, and In
Guiding all the items of daily life, living
is as cheap there as in England.
England wants to force free trade on
this country with the assistance of the
monopolistic dude dependents in the
east and the Democratic party the coun
try over.
But. as we take It, America is still q
country of American ideas and is not tc

DEKOORATIO TARIFF REFORK.

DEMOCRATIC TARIFF Reform.
The most serious issue Of the cam.
pagn Is that Of protective tariff. The
Cleyeland party is for reforming" the
tariff. The operation is reformed with
knife, and the first cut proposed was q
ann of the whole. The loud menaces
and fierce demeAnOr of the Carlisle and
Morrison leaders at the beginning of the
session softened gradually as the die.
tates Of policy demanded and the neces-
sity of astraddle Of the tariff plank in the
platform became apparent. That far.
cial tWo-horse act deceived no one
There Is no man Of sense IN the United
States who does not know that the con.
trolling spirits In the Cleveland move
ment are for cutting the tariff As deeply
as they dare, with the hope of cutting

reduced, the prices OF grain down, and

STRTKING HONE

James A. Whitney, an old time Dem
ocrat, has addressed an open letter to
Gov. Cleveland, through the New York
Star, which concludes as follows:
"You have IN your Official capacity
negatived measures urged by the pro-
ducing classes. The character and his
tory of these are well known and need
not be set forth at length. In your de.
tense 1t is urged that these measures
were not really calculated to benefit the
working classes; that your vetoes were
actually in the interests of the people
whose wishes you denied. Has it ever
occurred TO you that this reasoning
Is the reverse OF Democratic
Were you eyer alive to the
tact that laws should embody
what the people themselves consider 70
be for their welfare, and not merely
what some Official, be he governor OF
president, considers good for them
However honest your motives in the acts
referred TO, their attempted justification
has nothing in common with true Dem
ocrAcy.
Taking into view what you have done
and what you have left undone, is there
any alternative to the conviction thai
Democratic principles can find safety
only rs the Democratic candidate treadi
the hot plowshares of defeat? Does mo-
your own course sffOrd the strongest per
suasive evidence that James G. Blaine
rather than Grover Cleveland. Is fitted tC
discharge the high duties and bear the
heavy responsibilities that belong to the
presidency OF the United States 90
