HOW F4RNERs 4REy4xED.

The careful reading of the following ar
| tice is commended to those who favor the
present high tariff. We feel satisfied that
when the matter is fully considered by the
farmers and laboring men throughout the
! country, all will agree that revision of the
the tariff laws gill be for the interest of every
man who makes his living by honest indus
| try.
! Here is a statement of Representative Turner
of Kentucky, showing few of the burdens Of
the farmer: Under the tariff he rises in the
morning, puts on his common flannel shirt taxed
! 95 per cent. his coat taxed AZ per cent; shoes
taxed 35 per cent; and hat taxed 90 per cent. !;
! takes the water from a bucket taxed IS per
| cent. and washes his face and hands in q tin
! bowl taxed 80 per cent; dries them on cheap
cotton towel taxed As per cent. He sits down to
| his humble meal and eats from plate taxed so
per cent with knife and fork taxed 80 per cent. ;
DIR nks his coffee with sugar taxed 90 per cent :;
! seasons his food with salt taxed so per cent ;
pepper taxed 81 per cent. He looks around on
! his wife and children all taxed in the same way ;
| takes chew Of tobacco taxed 1919 per cent, or
! lights a cigar taxed 11S per cent. And, sir, even
the sunlight from heaven that pours into his
{! humble dwelling must come through window
! glass taxed 81 per cent; and yet he thinks
| he lives under the freest government under
| heaven. Then he starts to work, puts bride
taxed 30 per cent. on his horse, and takes his
horse that has been shod-the nails used in
shoing being taxed 40 per cent, driven by a
| hammer taxed 20 per cent and bitches him to
a pillow taxed 45 per cent. with chains taxed So
per cent and after the day labor is closed and
his family are all gathered around he reads a
chapter from his Bible taxed % per cent, and
| knees to God humble carpet taxed 81 per
| cent and then he rests his weary limbs a
sheet taxed 45 per cent, and covers himself
J with a blanket that has paid 104 per cent. Nor
! do these graspilg manufacturers stop here, but
even the broom with which his good wife sweeps
the floor is taxed 35 per cent, and the cooking
vessels used in preparing her husbands frugal
meal are taxed II per cent, and the soda used to
| tighten his bread taxed SO per cent. She sits
down to her sowing with a needle taxed 25 per
cent and spool of thread taxed "a per cent, to
make a calico dress taxed 50 per cent. or if she
wsner to knit warm socks TO protect her hus-
| band aud children from the bitter cold, she uses
| yarn taxed 120 per cent; and thus daily and
! hourly must the hard earnings of the laborer go
! to satisfy the manufacturer and add to his ill
gotten wealth.

Especial correspondence of the GIobo.s


LUyERNE, July 14-The nomination OF
Mr.. Hendricks as candidate for
the vice presidency was not more
satisfactory to the delegates at the Chicago con-
vention Friday than is that of Cleveland and
Hendricks to the Democrats of Rock county. It
more than fills the measure of our expectations.
and viii command the hearty support of every
Democrat IN the county, and If we mistake not
find favor with many Independent Republicans,
whose love for clean politics and honesty in pub
lie and private life is paramount to their fidelity
to party.
Interviews with leading Democrats in all parts
of the country disclose prevalent conviction
that the ticket will win in November and promi
nent Republicans here regard the nomination as
the strongest that could have been made. Rock
county is not particularly noted for the size of
her Democratic maiorities indeed, but few
years ago two men claimed the honor of being
the only Democrats in the county, aud they were
justly entitled to the distinction. 1t is crafty
ing to compare that period in our county's his
tory with the present and note the change.
On Saturday evening the Democrats Of Rock
county assembled at the rink in this village to
ratify the nomination Of Cleveland and Hendricks,
and the orator of the occasion, Hon. Hamilton II.

The Merry Var.

As predicted in yesterdays GLoEE, the slight
shortcomings consequent upon the first presen-
tation of elaborate an opera as the merry
War were bound to be done away with in sub
segment performances of this charming work,
aud last nights presentation was
all that could have been asked for
The audience ives almost as large and fully as
fashionable as that which attended the opening
performance aud the rendition proved highly
artistic and enjoyable. Ii is to be doubted. in
deed. if the patrons of the better class of opera
in St. Paul will ever be accorded so fine an op-
portunity to hear this sparkling composition so
admirably sung and acted.
In organizing so excellent a company at this
season of the year Mr. Davis has conferred a
genuine boon upon the musical patrons of this
city, and his success cannot be too highly ap-
plauded or patronized. The company embraces
several artists OF national celebrity. and the opera
IS eostumed and mounted in rich and sumptu-
ous manner.
The audience last night was enthusiastic and
sympathetic TO degree aud they were fully en-
rapport with the superb music and the splendid
manner IN which it was interpreted by the COM
pany. There will be matinee performance
this afternoon. and as this will be the only
merry War matinee the house deserves to De
crowded. The same opera viii be given to-
night.

SALTWATER, Mimi, July 15.-Another game
lost, and no wonder, as no club can gain game
with such decisions as were made by the umpire
The game of Saturday should have been won,
but it appeared as if the umpire might have been
mistaken in his decision, but the game to-day
showed his unfairness. Saltwater people like
fair play, and no matter how badly they may be
BEATEN SO long as it is done fairly, they will not
kick, but it became insufferable to-day. Shom-
berg was at bat, and to defend his legs from q
throw from Foutz he brought his bat down and
it was counted strike against him. Stapleton
was acting captain and drew his attention to the
fact when he fined him SIS for daring to talk
to him. The assemblage took it up and
the S. was promptly raised by Chief Shortal,
who went on the ground and gave the money to
Stapleton to pay the fine. The umpire after
wards went to the booth where the players sit
and had a conversation with the Bay City players
which was in extremely bad taste. Umpire
Hoover has proved himself an unfair snob and his
decisions in the three games deserve protest
from both clubs. Such umpires will disgrace any
league The game to-day was played without
spirit by both sides and there was not much
sharp playing on either side. There were good
double plays, with some catches on long runs,
but four of the six runs made could be counted
to errors. The less said about the game the
better. Following is the score:

SULKING IN THEIR TENTS.
The President and His Cabinet Not
Enthusiastic Over Blaine and
Logan,
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-There is a gradually
increasing volume of gossip here in regard to the
lukewarmness OF the president and his cabinet
toward the Republican ticket. 1t is noticeable
fact that no expression of friendliness has es-
capped Mr.. Arthur, since he dictated his vaguely
congratulatory letter to Blaine Immediately fol-
lowing the nomination. Friendly relations with
Logan were suspended the moment it was an
nounced that he had contributed to Blaine's
nomination and had been rewarded for this by
the nomination for second place. There has
been no intercourse between Arthur and Logan
since the Republican nominations except that
which was absolutely necessary, and that has
been conducted very distantly. 1t is whispered
about that the president has said to more than
one friend emphatically that he does not care
continental whether the Republican ticket is
elected or not. 1t is said the cabinet are in en-
tire sympathy with Arthur with the exception Of
Chandler and perhaps Gresham. Folger has been
heard to say plainly that as the Blaine men in
New York stayed at home when he
was candidate against Cleveland, therefore
he will not lift his hand for Blaine against Cleye
land Leading Republicans are nightly exer-
cised in their minds about the GOODNESS of the
administration, and say that Arther must show
his colors and that the cabinet officers viii be
dragged out of their tents where they now sulk

Inettas, Remarkable Performance.

CHICAGO, July 15.-This was the ninth and
closing day CT the Chicago Driving Park summer
trotting m Getting. The events on the card for
the day were tn conclusion of the 2 :27 race, in
which six heats were trotted yesterday, and
race open to all trotters. The weather was cool
and cloudy, with light breeze, and the track
fast. Unfortunately the attendance was limited,
as one Of the most sensational performances of
the year was witnessed. On the last day of
August, 1875, at Hartford, Smuggler trotted
mile in 2: 154, and from that day to this that
figure has stood as the best record for stations.
For years all the great trotting stations have
been sh ooting at this mark, and their fame and
value ha gone up in the ratio of their approach
to it. Last season Phallas trotted in 2:15E, and
it was admitted to be but question of time
when he would obliterate Smugger's perform
ance. That time came to-day when this great
son of Dictator and Betsy Trotwood trotted a
full mile in 2:13 q in the fourth heat, after hay
ing won two preceding heats in very fast time,
thus beating Smugger's record IL seconds.
This is not only the fastest stallion time but the
fastest fourth heat ever trotted by any animal.
The first quarter was trotted in 33A seconds,
half in 1:17h, three-quarters in 1904 H. The
first and second quarters were trotted at 2:15
gait the third at rate of 2 12 and the last quar-
fapo of 70 ~ -

CLETELAYD.s sTROYG POINT.


The New York San regards the nomina-
ton of Cleveland as protest against the as
sumption involved in the nomination of
Blaine by the Republicans that it does not
make any difference whether man is honest
or not, so long as he possesses the other
qualities of a great political leader. The S,tu
says:
The one conspicuous defect in Mr.. Blaines
career has heen his indifference to official ntegri
ty. The prominent feature in Governor
Cleyeland's administration has been the conf
dence which he has inspired in his rectitude of
purpose and honesty of action as public officer.
In training, in experience, in knowledge Of
affairs, it cannot truthfully be said that he is Mr..
Blaines equal lie had vast deal to learn
when he became Governor, and the field of
necessary knowledge which the White House
opens to view is much more expansive and exact
ing But he is strong where his antagonist is
weak His honest is not doubted

Independent Republicans.

New YORK, July 1.-THE Independent
Republican general committee met this af-
ternoon at their new headquarters. Carl
Schurz presided. The following call was
adopted unanimously:
The undersigned committee invite all Re-
publican and independent voters who disap-
prove the nominations made by the Republic
can national convention at Chicago as I'M
worthy of support, who think that the inter
est of good government and public morals
demand the defeat of the Republican can
tidates for president and vice president
and who are therefore resolved not to vote
for Blaine and Logan, to meet for confer
ence, either in person or by delegation, for
the purpose of determining upon course of
action in the pending canvass. The confer
ence will be held at IL a. M, the 22d of July,
1884, in the city of New York, at University
club theater, Madison avenue and Twenty
sixth street. Gentlemen desiring to take part
are respectfully requested to report their
names to s. W. GriersoE, secretary of the

customers, or the interests of the business
public. Had they sustained, or moderately
increased their line of discounts, the severi-
W OF the pressure caused by the panic would
have been mitigated, and many disastrous

upon the principle that self-preservation is
the first law of nature, and all in danger

month before Grover Cleveland was
elected governor Of New York, Gen. R. w.
Johnson, of this city, sent the following
brief communication to the GLOBE, and it
appeared in these columns Oct. 9Th, 1882:
To the Editor of the Globe:
81 desire to place the following prophesies on
record:
First-Grover Cleveland will be the next gov
ernor of New York
Second-The next president will be a Demo-
crat, and Grover Cleveland will be his name"
The first prediction was promptly verified,
and all the preliminaries have been arranged
for the fulfllment of the second: It is only
a question of time when the entire prophecy
will be made true As a political prophet

CHANDELIERS FALSEHOOD.
Senator Beck Exposes the Secretary
of the Navy.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.


WASHINGTON, July 15.-It seems that thirty
two Republican senators signed the petition
questing the retention of DR.. Wales as chief of
the bureau of medicine and surgery of the navy
department. The thirty-two Republican United
States senators signed the petition before it
was presented to the Democrat senators,
who signed it at the request Of Senator
Anthony, of Rhode Island, who carried it around
the senate chamber. Mr.. Anthony is the Oldest
member of the senate and very honorable man.
Bill Chandler, in answering Hendricks speech,
suppressed the names Of the Republicans who
asked for Wales retention, giving only the
Democrats. thereby trying to make it appear as
if none but Democrats urged DR.. Wales reten-
ton.
Senator Beck, in referring to Chandler's let
ter, said to-day: ''Why, he lies. He doesn't tell
the facts. He says that and other Democratic
members of congress demanded DR.. Wales ap-
pointment, but omits to state that Senator An
thony the oldest and most honored of all the
Republican senator's was the first name on the
petition. He presented the petition to me and all
the other Democrats who signed it, There were
thirty-two Republican senators the

did sign the paper and would do it again to-day
DR.. Wales Is an honorable man, high in his pro-
fession and high in all the social walks of life.
He is not, perhaps, good detective Mr.
Chandler. He signed those vouchers when pre-
scented to him, believing they were correct. II
Mr.. Chandler stood as well to-day as DR.. Wales
he could have got all the supplies necessary for
the American navy, but congress had no conf
dence in his integrity and refused the money.

so. He is far above Mr.. Chandler in every re-
