AN OPEN LETTER
From an Iowa Farmer to Senator
Allison.

From an Iowa Farmer to Senator
Allison.
To Hon. WM. B. ALLISON, WASHING
TON, d. O.; AND THROUGH MIN Te
THE SENATE or THE UNITED STATES
The Reagan till has passed thu
House, and 1t is the desire Of y larg.
portion OF our laboring people tina
It pass the Senate and become a law
To show the necessity for such 1
law, I cite you to the following facts
A pair Of shoes manufactured in /
village In Maine are worth In tina
village two dollars, the price or two
bushels Of corn in that locality
These same shoes sell in the wea
for twelve bushels OF corn. 1--WE
from twelve leaves ten. Who gets
this ten bushels Of corn? Certainly
neither the manufacturer or the CON.
sumner Of these shoes. Corporate
power gobbles 1t and still Is so hun
CRY that it has no sympathy with the
people. A bushel OF corn will make
twenty large loaves Of bread. Any
one OF these loaves will sell In Con.
necticut for more than bushel oil
corn costs in Kansas. Who gets the
other nineteen louves of bread.
Certainly their price has largely
gone to the transportation companies
whose railroad lines now extend far
beyond the homes Of civilized man
and are for the sole use OF cattle
kings who drive the would be set
tiers off from the public domain
The school district next west oil
Cresco, the county seat OF Howard
county, Iowa, is settled by twelve
families two houses being vacant) /;
ten Of these families are subject to
the will Of those who control the fec
title to the houses they live in and
the lands they till. Only two OF the
twelve own their homes and have
the power to say how long they may
remain In them. I live In this school
district and feel 1t my duty to inquire
OF you what deuil islcarnate controls
the minds Of our law makers and
causes that system Of government
by which five-sixths Of our people
are wanderers in q land OF plenty
being allowed to sleep under roof
or eat the bread they have produced
only by the will OF another. Five
sixths Of our peoples backs are
clothed and their stomachs filled
only when the landlords conscience
and will allow 1t. The Reagan bill
is calculated to, In some degree,
check this terrible condition ct our
people. II / were o United States
Senator and did not support It by

deserted my masters service and
was spreading hydrophobia (mad-
ness) through the land OF my con-
stituency and deserve the fate usu.

on their lips.
Hoping that q wiser and better
thought may control your brain, that
wise words for your constituency
may flow from your mouth, and a
humane vote be cast by your hand,

THE INTER OCEAN.

/ LII 1886 The INTER OCEAN enters
upon the fourteenth year Of its ex-
istenct. Given unusual confidence
by the people in its early days it has
steadily grown in favor until thi.,
day, when the publishers take pride
in the fact that the paper goes into
more homes and has o greater num-
Der OF readers than any publication
west OF the Alleghenies.
/ From the beginning The INTER
OCEAN has stood firmly by the prin-
ciples Of the Republican party, and
has, in season and out Of season,
contended for protection TO Ameri-
can industry" It does not agree
with the idea that the mission OF the
Republican party is finished; on the
contrary it belives that, purified by
adversely, it will in the near future
again rise to the higher planes of
thought and action and be complete
~ restored to the confidence Of the
American people. The most import
ant agencies IN accomplishing this
result will be Republican journals.
II a reliable, stanch Republican
newspaper was important when the
republican party was in power, 1t is
donbly SO now that the Democracy
control the National Government.
The INTER OCEAN will in the future
rs in the past be the medium through
which the best Republican thought
will be given to the people. It will
voice the convictions Of advanced
Republicans without being unfair
even to Bourbon Democrats It will
be aggressively Republican without
being bitterly partisan, and will give
as much attention to the affairs Of
Cleveland's administration as 1t
would have given to the administra-
ton of Mr.. Blaine had he been elect
ed. With an Associated Press fran
chise, with special wires reaching to
New York and Washington, with
special correspondents in all impor-
tant points OF the country, The In
ter Ocean will use it's facilities for
collecting news without fear or ia
yor, and SO far as governmental
affairs or party movements ale con-
cerned will give a fuller record than
any other paper.
All Of the old departments will be
continued. The scope of the WO-
MANS KINGDOM will be widened
SO as to take in all the industrial
and reform movements in which
women are introduced and engaged.
OUR CURIOSITY SHOP, now q STAN
dard, will be given greater variety
and interest. In the FARM AND
HOME and other departments the
widest possible range OF topics will
De discussed.
OF original short stories and seri-
ais, the very best by American and
English authors will be given during
the year. Arrangements have been
made to publish during the year
short stories by BOYSEN, HOW
ELLIS LATHROP. and others, and
a new serial by the author of"One
summer" and to publish all these in
addition to the serials by MISS
BRADDON and others English au-
thors.
In every department OF news and
literature THE INTER OCEAN will
make a better record than it ever
has done.

Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from prac>
tice, haYing had placed in his hands by
an East India missionary the formula
of "A simple vegetable remedy for the
speedy and permanent cure of Con-
sumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asth
ma and all throat and Lung Affections,
also positive and radical cure for
Nervous Debility and all Nervous
Complaints, after having tested its
wonderful curative powers in thou
sands of cases, has felt it his duty to
make it known to his suffering fellows.
Actuated by this motive and desire
to relieve human suffering, | will send
free of charge, to all who desire it, this
recipe, in German, French or English,
with full directions for preparing and

Manners and Customs in the South.

Toledo Blade.
1 have returned from a trip South,
and let me say there is a soothing
quietude about Southern manners,
which is, perhaps, all the more agree
able as brought into contrast with the
restless, worrying action of Northern
life. They are seldom in a hurry and
have leisure to enjoy themselves and
practice thoselittle refnementswhich
are the wayside flowers in the path of
life. There is not a man or boy but
will lift his hat on meeting a lady,
and with a grace born of long use and
innate politeness. In going down the
steps it seems instructive for the gen.
tleman to take the lady's hand and
assist her. While in the South with
a friend my attention was attracted
to gentleman and lady near us.
"They are Southerners," L remarked.
"YOu can tell that by the way he
takes care of her." A Northerner
appears to perform many little acts of
pOliteness as duty; a SOutherner
will do it as if a pleasure. No matter
how well they may know her, none
of the boys address a lady by her first
name alone; it is always Miss Mary,
Miss Annie, etc. A respect for the
sanctity of the church seems unusual.
/ have never seen but one instance of
whispering at divine service, and
that was by Northern girl. A great
deal has been said about dipping
snuff, but | have rarely been where l
have met with it in any class, and
what | did see was no more unclean
than any way of chewing gum or to-
baccO.
So many years have now passed
since brother was arrayed against
brother that we can judge the contes-
tants on both sides dispassionately.
Be the facts as they may, Southerners
as body honestly thought they were
fighting for their homes and country,
and believing this made the women
of the South the bravest of the brave.

Insoluble Cement from Glue.

In order to render glue insoluble in
water, even hot water, it is only nee
essary, when dissolving glue for use,
to add a little potassium bichromate
to the water and expose the glued
part to the light. Thelproportion Of
bichromate will vary with circum-
stances, but for most purposes, about
One-fftieth Of the amount of glue will
suffice.
