Every once in q while we hear

Every once in a while we hear a
farmer complain of prices for produce,
and the difficulty of knowing what 10
raise for profit, and conjecturing as to
the reason for the slackness in the de-
mand for our agricultural products.
The man who cannot see in England's
retaliatory policy, in France and Ger.
many's exclusion of American meats,
the reason for all this must be blind in
deed. If the republicans in congress
again prevent a modification of our
absurd tariff the farmer may for q
good while longer hang his harp on a
willow tree. Just so long as we erect
a wall against Europe just SO long will
Europe maintain a wall over which oul
gram and meats cannot be passed.

The Intelligencer's reports of the
life, trial and execution of Jefferson
Wilson we're much the most complete
and comprehensive published. In its
extra for Friday it printed fourteen
columns regarding these topics, all o.
which, with the account of the execu
ton, was printed In the weekly the
next day. OF the edition of the extra
over two thousand were printed, and
the weekly has been in hourly demand
ever since its issue.

The universal sentiment of the press
regarding the Fort Worth affair is that
ii was an unjustifiable crime. The
Sedalia Democrat, which has been all
along a strong friend of the strikers,
says:-"When those men at Fort
Worth fired on the officers of the law
from ambush they ceased to be strikers
and became outlaws" The Post Dis.
patch, also on the labor side OF the dis
pute, said:-''It was murder Of the
most cold blooded and cowardly de-
scriptien and its atrocity is not affected
in any way by anything in the past his
tory or present relations of the perpe-
traitors and their Victims" The st.
Louis Republican, which has been
fighting Mr.. Gould and doing good
work for the strikers, still was COL
strained to say:-"When at Fort
Worth, Tex, yesterday, the first
deputy sheriff dropped with a bullet
from a Winchester rifle through him,
the strike on the Gould southwestern
system disappeared and all the ques-
tions 1t involved sunk out of sight in
presence of the overshadOwing question
ofupholding law and Furnishing crime"
And so on through the list. No man
who counsels anarchy Is a friend OF
labor. This is a free country, a very
free country, but 1t is not free to
license-the rights of all men are to be
protected, and whenever and wher-
ever there is lawlessness all other
questions must give way until order il
restored.

Post-D ispatch:-"Judge John E. Ry-
land, who sentenced the last man legal.
ly executed in Lafayette county the

Ryland, who in April, 1884, sentenced

Cure for Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of
weight i'm the back, lOins and lower part of
the abdomen. causing the patient TO
suppose he has some affection of the
kidneys or neighboring organs. At
times, symptoms of indigestion are present,
tlatulency. uneaslness of the stomach, etc. A
moisture, like perspiration, producing a very
disagreeable itching, after getting warm, is Il
common attendant. Blind, bleeding and
itching piles yield at once to the application
of DIR. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts
the tumors, allaying the intense itching, and
e~ffecting a permanent cure. Price so cents.

Philadelphia Times:-"Even Sena-
tor Ingalls, speech is not without alloy.
The stalwart republicans thoroughly
enjoyed his merciless attack upon the
mugwumps, but when he pronounced
himself all offensive partisan and said
that every self respecting republican
ought to resign from Office now that a
democratic president was in, the NOISE
of a falling feather would have sound
ed like a cannon shot in the dubious
calm that followed. 1t was very fun
ny-funnier than the stalwarts thought
at the time, and it keeps getting fun
nier every minute"
The St. Louis Republican epitomized
our views regarding the strike in these
words:-s'To the strikers: When you
feel like striking again, don't. TIC
railroad companies: When the meu
who have served you faithfully are dis.
posed to strike. or haye struck, meet
them and see what it is all about. To
the public and its officers: When trains
stop running, demand that they resume
Immediately, and see that they have
the protection to make resumption
possible"
