Will the Union and United Labor peo-
pie of Kansas please tell us what they
want? Labor interests genarally are
more thoroughly covered by the state
laws of Kansas than in any other state
all passed by Republican legislatures.
And in the further interest of labor the
present platform of the party in this
state declares in favor of the weekly
payment of all laborers. The labor ele-
ment if placed in absolute control of the
government could not do more.

With the exception that the figures
are about twice as high as the facts of

fact that the amount reclaimed was as

nearly SIS. o00, 600. That was the only
year since 1875 in which the country, in

There does not appear 10 be as much
tariff scare" as the Republicans counted
on. Both manufacturers and working men
have appeared in sufficient numbers on
the reform side as TO show that the great
alleged political philanthropy of protec-
ton has been discovered TO be humbug.
That is, enough people see through the
deceit to knock the power out of it to
carry the election for Ben. Harrison.
One of the first striking illustrations OF
this was the act of the Republican Sen
ators in throwing over the platform and
attacking the sacred tariff. The attack
as farce, but the pretence showed a
healthy acknowledgment of the progress
of tariff reform.

Virginia is like the other Southern

is to bring out their vote. Time was when

II is stated by some shrewd persons
that "Snyder" Is at the bottom of the
Sackyille correspondence. He is de-
scrlbed as a great friend Of Quay, and
made q mission to California for some
mischieyous purpose
Other traps were set at the same time
and in the same manner to catch pious
elders OF the church and others and OBJ
tain "adyice" damaging TO the Demo

The sense OF the people was quick to
perceive that there was trick, and 1t IS

THAT JOKE on SNYDER.

Csptain General Quay is not the frst
specimen of Republican leader whose
tricks brought the q. o. p. into contempt

ton was tuned up to concert pilcn.

They all might exclaim in chorus, Burn
IA, IetterW for AZ smart es they are
Il snnears to be the insctdtable but ger
tain rule of fate TO make such men trip
IN their own heels in the nets they
SET for other people. If al this
moment the connection between Quay
and SNYDER is established and the Muir
Gibson letter fixed on Qusy's minion, the
consequences to the Republicans will be
bad. and will illustrate that quaint old
French maxim "On peut etre trop i'm. -
which we translate literally and inscribe
TO our Republican friends, "Onc can be
too smart"-in fact, so elaborate in his
smartness as to be caught.
In quoting the extracts from English
papers on the alleged threat OF the Presi-
dent against England we cannot but sus'
pect the hand OF Quay again and the
smartness Of Snyder, the Penman' VINO
must have managed to get up the brilliant
anecdotes of the Presidents interview
with one "O'Reilly, an English gentleman
who saw him at Mr.. Whitneys home,
etc. etc. the result of which ominous
interview was said TO be an official utter
ance on the par, of Mr. Cleveland that
Britain had better at once recall Lord
Sackyille or the lions tail would be
violently twisted, or words to that effect.
The truth is that the only important part
10 the whole business was the probable
effect of Snyder's joke on the election
but as the joke has turned on Snyder and
his gang the residuum Of it all will be-
or ought al least to be, the yerdancy OF
the minister in being caught.
AS for the alleged irate utterance OF
the President il msy he tsken for granted
generally that a wise man is apt to deal
with responsibility with sense and cool
ness. and this is doubly certain when the
example of foolish man is right before
his face as warning.
Therefore we conclude that if MI
O'Reilly heard anything it was simply
that the American Government would
respectfully request Lord Sackyille's re-
call or the ground that be had impru'
