Farmers and the Tariff.

The tariff advocates have SYSTEMATIC
ally deceived the people as to the
effects of so-called protection and in
this respect no class has been more
cody hoodwinked than have the
farmers been. American farmers are
the people whom the men who want
protection secure the assistance of the
Government in taxing. Agriclture is
the spoil of the manufacturer, miner
and lumberman. Unless some recip-
rocity can be shown the farmer isnOt
likely to submit forever in silence to a
policy, the first effect of which is to
take money from his pocket and put it
in the pocket of man many miles
away to whom he may be under no
obligation. In order to ease the minds
of inquiring farmers the salaried advoA
Gates of protection invented little
sophistry which answered its purpose
for awhile, but which is now seen to
be threadbare in the extreme. They
held that if the farmers would consent
to pay taxes for benefit of dealers in
raw materials and manufacturers they
would get their reward in due time, be-
cause, thus stimulated, the protected
| interests would be able to buy enor-.
nous quantities of produce from the
farmers, thus creating home market.
1t was the old watch-stutfing game
over again. The farmers We're con-
| tidenced into it, and the robbery has
been going on these many years. An
inquiry recently made by the editor Of
the Million, publication of fgreat merit.
shows these facts: In the last census
year the wheat crop in this country
was in round numbers 450,000,000
bushels. OF this amount the farmers
themselves consumed % per cent. or
| 9O,000,000 bushels. Other Americans
not protected use 22s per cent. for
bread, or 101 100000 bushels. The far.
mers reserved 10 per cent. for seed, or
| 450O0,O 600 bushels, and 45 per cent. was
exported, or 1S0, ,934, ATS bushels. This
leaves for the consumption of the pro-
tected classes s. per cent, or about "a
000,0 900 bushels. 1t will thus be seen
that the protected industries, which
annually absorb hundreds of millions

tie more than half as much as he uses
for seed, whereas he is compelled to-
send seven times as much abroad there
to compete with the ''pauper labor'' of
Europe before it can be sold. The
comparison is instructive because it,
shows how comparatively small an
interest it is which has the G0,000,000
of Americans by the throat in the act
of robbing them. The last census
shows that less than five per cent. of
the American people are employed i'll
these protected industries. or the fact
protection is taxation there can no
longer be doubt when the men who
are protected undertake to justify it by
showing the compensations to be laicR
by reason of it. When these "com-
pensations" are found to be insigniti-
cant or wholly fraudulent the case OF
the protectionsists on their own show
ing falls to the ground. Why then
should the farmers continue to support
a policy which year by year is making
the foreign market their chief depen-
dence where they have a large surplus
to dispose of, more and more difficult
of access?

Republican Professions VS. Demo
cratic Facts.
Defiance Democrat !

1.-THE Democracy had q two-thirds
majority in the legislature, yet failed to
submit a license proposition to the peo-
ple-which they had the party vote to
do, if they had been sincere. ."-Toledo
Blade.
The Blade deliberately, and possibly
knowingly, states an untruth. We
will make plain and short correction,
which in the interest of honest journal
ism, we request the Blade to copy; OF,
if that does not snit, will it please cor
rect its own statement in words of it's
own:
First, Two-thirds of the last House
vote was 20, the whole vote being 105;
the Democrats had only 60:
Second, A hree.fShs vote is neces.-
sary to submit an amendment to the
constitution. So was three-tifths of the
last House vote-three more than the
entire strength.
Third, the entire Democratic vote in
the House, as well as in the Senate, was
cast in favor of "a license amendment.
Fourth, The Republicans caucused
upon the proposition, and knowing
that they controlled the situation, re-
fused to cast single vote for license.
Fifth, The logic of the proceeding is.
that the Democrats did all in their
power to submit license amendment,
and the responsibility for failure rests
with the Republican party.

Treatment Of Sheen.

There are many reasons why the lew
growers who still persist should aband-
on the habit of washing their sheep be-
fore shearing, and we know of not q
single argument in its favor. The
practice was inaugurated at an early
day, and it is relic of old times, when
the wool shorn from the small fiocks in
the Eastern States was largely used up
at home. Then it was necessary to
wash it either before or after shearing,
to prepare it for carding and spinning.
Those days are passed and both the
sheep and their owners ought to be
glad of it.
The yolk in a healthy fleece is
natures preservation of the fiber. 1t is
a soapy matter, with strong potash
base, resembling no other animal
secretion; it is, in fact, soap, with
more or less free oil. 1t preserves the
elasticity of the fiber, and should be
left in the wool until it is wanted for
manufacturing use. Manufacturers
well knows that secured wool, in time,
becomes brittle and loses it's good
qualities indefinitely. 1t is doubtful if
anybody ever saw moth in unwashed
wool. The PERCENTAGE of yolk in
healthy fiocks of even grade is quite
uniform, but varying in different breeds
from twenty-five per cent. in the
Leicester and other coarse breed to
fifty to seventy-tive per cent. in the
very finest Saxon, the bucks always
carrying more than the ewes. The
system of washing in cold water on the
sleeps back never results in a washed
fleece fit for the manufacturer, but only
the eradication of an unknown and
uncertain part of the yolk, contained
in the fleece, which is thus changed
into an unmerchantable commodity to
be sold Oh it's uncertain merits as to
shrinkage. The name or designatin of
washed wool has ceased to have any
charm, and the sooner the practice of
washing is entirely abandoned, the bet
ter it will be for the sheep, their
owners, and the trade generally Wool

Browns Iron Bitters, the Rev. f. A.
Spring, Corydon, Iowa, says, III used it
for general ill-health and found it a

Stevenson, Dakota, says, "It cured me
of severe dyspepsia and increased my
weight twenty-five pounds" The
Rev. Mr.. Offey, New Bern, n. c., says
he has taken it, and considers it one of
the best medicines known. The Rev.
Mr.. Whitney, bingham, Wis, says,
"After long sickness from lung fever,

Disseharging Senate Help.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The "But-
Ter House forcen of Senate employees,
consisting of three messengers at salar-
les of 81 ,440 each, two janitors at 5000,
and several laborers at $72D will be
dropped from the pay rolls at the end
of the present month. They are near
ly all Republicans. At the same time,
one assistant door-keeper of the Senate
at 81 800, two messengers at 81 440 each
and one employee of the folding-room
will be dropped. Of these two are
Democrats, one is Republican, and the
politics of the other is unknown.
The cost of the stationary to be sup
piled for the use of the Interior Depart
ment during the next fiscal year will be
S47,S91, a reduction of over $40, GOO as
compared with the expenditure for the
same purpose this year. The amount
of imported goods selected by the com
mitaee making the awards is much
less than in preceding years, as it has
been found that articles of American
manufacture, especially cutlery and
steel pens, are fully equal to the best
imported goods while the cost is much
less. The supply of gold pens upon
requisition is regarded by Secretary
Lamar as an extravaganza and will be
discontinued

Result Of Setting Bad Example.
lTOndon Tjmes

The effect of the example Of parents
upon the formation of the character of
their children having been mentioned
by several experienced members of The
household, shall not speak very much
of this very important subject, but q
little must say on one unfortunately
but too prevalent phrase of evil exam
pie, and that is the carelessness of
speech, more especially when it refers
to our neighbors, which some people
are in the habit of exhibiting almost
every day of their lives. zhave in my
mind certain family in which this
pernicious habit was INDUCED, and
nearly every one of the children only
too faithfully reproduced in their lives
the models Of the originals. Nothing
was too sacred to escape their censure or
ridicule; the neighbors were subjected
to every species of criticism. Not
single idiosyncracy was spared. Ruth
lessly, it was thrown into the crucible,
and as ruthlessly subjected to analysis,
and the unvarying result was Implying
laughter, impish scorn, or unconcealed
sneers. Why should continue the
picture 2 Save to add, that all this
much-to-be-pitied family grew up to be
despised and spurned by all right
minded people. Dear mother, let me
whisper warning and tell you the
cause of this moral devastation. 1t was
the mother.

Escaped by the Skin of their Teeth.

The intelligence has just come to us
that Charlie Halliday, a former Heidle-
berg student and resident of this city,
was brought home to his mother in
PerrSsburg, in very precarious condi-
ton Grom the South. The particulars
as far as we can learn are as follows:
Young Halliday with twenty-five other
young men engaged with railroad
Contractor to go to CeQtral America to
aid in the construction of a railroad at
very handsome salaries. The young
men started in high hopes of doing a
nice thing for themselves, expecting to
return in a year or so with pockets well
filled with glistening coin. The prom
ises given to the young men were false.
After arriving at their destination their
fair dreams were not to be realized. One
after another was stricken down and
only three were enabled to return home.
This was no easy task o accomplish.
Sick and broken in health, when an at
tempt to return was made, every posi-
ble hindrance was put in their way.
Even our representatives to that coun-
try failed to have any sympathy and
seemed to be in collusion with the Rail-
road Contractors. Money was sent by
Mrs. Harriet Halliday to her son and
the boy was brought home last week.
Twenty-three of the young men, his
companions, were buried in the soil OF
Central America. 1t should be a lesson
to young men who are so anxious to get
away from home and parental restraint.

The Distraction in the Republican
Ranks.

The distraction in the Republican
ranks of Ohio is attracting a good deal
of attention outside of the State. Com
ments upon the situation are INDUCED
in by the Republican press generally.
Referring to the unhappy condition
the Republicans, the New York Post
says:
"The Republican managers are CROP
ing around in a hopeless sort of way for
tissues" in fall canvass. They appear
dazed by the successful opening of the
new administration, and cannot conceal
their disgust at the lack of those Demo-
cratic blunders' upon which they so
confidently counted. AS the Demo-
crat manifest more progressive spirit,
the mantle of BourbOnism seems to be
falling upon Republican shoulders.
Many prominent men still cherish the
astounding delusion that the bloody
shirt may yet be waved with success.
Out in Ohio Gen. Beatty, an aspirant
for the Republican nomination for
Governor, announces his desire to
make the canvass on the old issue of
Southern elections. When the census
shows that there is more blacks than
whites in a State, Gen. Beatty insists
that there should be Republican ma
jority in the State, and if not, he holds
that the election is fraud. The day
| for this sort of talk has gone by
There never was a worse insult offered
to a race of men than this complacent
assumption of Northern Republican
politicians that it was only necessary
to learn that mans skin was colored to
set him down as voter for their party.
The only resemblance of reason for it
was the fact that these ignorant people
had been seduously taught by their un-
principled carpet-bag leaders that a
Democratic victory would invoice their
return to slaverly. But the negroes
have already learned how shamefully
they were deceived, and the multiply
ing preefs that their condition is
bound to be better in the future than it
ever was before will prevent their fall
ing again into such a delusion. Gen.
Beatty supposes that every negro is dy-
ing to cast a Republican ballot. Be
fore the election of 1884 this had ceased
to be the fact, and Il healthful division
of the colored vote is certain to attend
the liberal policy of the Democratic
Administration toward the race"

"A Tough Spring Chicken.
Savannah (Ga.) News.

A spring chicken escaped from coop
