Where are the mugwump civil service
reform newspapers as regards the presi-
dents alleged $4,000 contribution to the
campaign fund, which the Sun so praises
him for? Why do not the noisest ad-
vocates have something to say in protest
against the grossest violation of the law:
1t is especially provided that there shall
be fine and Imprisonment when any per-
son in the service of the United States
gives to another in like service or to a
senator or congressman any money for
any political purpose. There are emil
nent persons in the service of the Unit
ed States who are members of the nat
ional committee. Mr.. Cleveland HIM
self holds the highest Office of all. If he
has sent his check to them, then the law
has been violated, and those who have
constituted themselves its special guar
dams should hurry out to vindicate its
majesty. They are too busy just now
pushing Cleveland and free trade. Mean
while, the country has before it the pic
ture of the president setting at defiance
the very law whose principles went
through the farce of being one of the
issues on which he was elected.

Tenn, and also how about the cutting
down of the Democratic majority in
Atlanta, Ga, to 42S, and the capture of
two out of the six wards. in spite Of the

sell themselves and betray their friends

The Democracy of the New York Sun
cannot be questioned, still its editor is
not so blinded by partisan prejudice that
he can only see good in his own party
Here is what the Sun says about the
senate tariff bill: Leaving partisan
politics and party platforms and the
political economy of the stump out of
sight altogether, the senate plan is the
surer, safer and more practicable
remedy for the evils which President
Cleveland SO forcibly described in his
message of last December"

OUR BATTLE cRY-PRorEcT1oN.


Written for the Irisil-American club Of Delano.
By ONE OF THE MACS.
| We left our native homes, far beyond the
deep blue sea
Struggling in vain for protection,
md we were welcom'd here in this land
of liberty,
A land blest with freedom and protec-
ton.
Protection forever, our war cry shall be,
For Harrison and Morton united are we;
Then rally round the flag boys, from Kan
sas to the sea,
Shouting our battle cry-protection.
The Democratic party wants cheap English
clothes,
Loving free trade, not protection;
They want to give employment to our
transatlantic foes,
But to WOrkmen at home no protection,
Chorus
They tell us it is time that our workmen
knew their place,
Shouting free trade, not protection;
And laws in our favor from the statutes
they'll erase
IL we become false to protection.
Chorus
The English manufacturers are one and all
afraid
That we'll cast our votes for protection,
But never while we live, boys, shall
English free trade
Blight this land consecrated to protection
Chorus
In our own native land we had English
free trade
Forced on us instead of protection,
And too well we know boys, what misery
it made
Where e'er it supplanted protection.
Chorus
BY the Lord that our fathers sincerely
adore
AS they fight for home-rule and pro-
lection,
Well never let English free trade ruin
this shore
Whilst we have vote fer protection.
CHORUS:
Protection forever, our war cry shall be,
Free trade has ruin'd our ain counter-rie:

1t is about time now for the Democratic
| papers of Kansas to begin 'electing" John
Martin governor in double loaded editor
| ials. We are surprised this thing has been
delayed SO long.-Topeka Capital.
| By referring to your evening contem-
porary, the Democrat, you will perceive
that they have already begun that enter
prise. That paper which short time
ago conceded Humphreys election by
twenty-five thousand majority, now
modestly claims Martins election by
that majority. That is part Of the play
| and viii be kept up right along until
election day. If they don't have Cover
nor Humphrey out of the race before
the election it will be wonder.
The development of the west during
the past twenty years that has been SO
phenomenal as to attract the attention of
the civilized world, has been mainly due
to the unprecedented railroad construc-
ton during that time. The construction
Of the roads has been facilitated by the
wonderful reduction in the price of rails
and other materials. The prices of these
articles have been brought down by the
strong competition in their production,
the direct effect or result of the tariff i'm
posed by the government upon such arti-
Giles of foreign manufacture. Thus it is
shown, irrefutably, that but for the pro-
lection afforded by the governments i'm
port duties upon the articles mentioned
and many others not mentioned, instead
Of being the abode of a teeming, thrifty,
happy population as it is, in almost
countless cities, towns and villages and
on thousands of farms, the great west
and southwest would be largely the
wild, bowling waste, the abode of the
savage, and wild beast as it was a few
years ago. Never curse the bridge that
carries you safely over the stream.

INDUSTRIAL WORLD.

The Surprise Mining company, OF Wau-
sau. Wis, has been recognized under the
name of the Ycsper Mining compare. Under
the old charter there was no provision
made for compelling stockholders to pay
their assessments, and RS one or two par
ties, who had no money to back them up,
owned or controlled over half the stock and
refused to sell it was impossible to carry
on the work. Under the new charter any
member failing TO pay up his assessments
inside Of thirty days forfeits his stock.
The new company is now u der the contro'
of good business men, who have plenty OF
money to develop the mines. Ore assaying
over IS per cent. OF good iron has been
found in several of the different shafts. and

state that they will be shipping ore from
the little hole III Wood county" in a very

Stun ming.

The coinage of t:le new word Stunning"
is call to thoughtful women to stop and
consider. Philanthropists are charged with
taking up charitable work as a fashionable
fad, and making an onslaught upon insti-
tutions and "elums for no higher motive
than that which called out devotees of roll
ler-skates; progressive euchre and donkey
parties" But is this true? Admit that
there are more charities than ever before;
admit that there are more society women
interested than there were score of years
ago; admit that modern ;estheticsm now
enters into the building of asylu1ns, homes
that is not to the praise of philanthropy and
cause of thankfulness to all workers for
the Master!
Can we not trace this result to the higher
education of women, who now learn polit-
ical economy and the science of govern
ment, as we'll as the more abstruse ologies
and isms? And may it not be due, also,
to the constant discussion of the painful
labor problem; to the greater influx of for
eign laborers, who not only themselves
need caring for, but prove our native work
ers deficient in much that must now be
taught them, and to the Christian spirit
which has grown stronger since the war,
and must needs find outlet in work for
S@.AAoo "ASA oO many VI LIS Cu11uTcu
in suffering?
Certainly all this intelligent, conscien-
tions philanthropy is not slum mlng!"
But of the few butterflies by nature and
habit, who seek a momentary diversion in
verifying the old meaning of lady--a
giver of bread; those who like to feel
themselves dispensers of bounty, what
censure is warranted? Does not the yery
contact with suffering often touch the
deepest sympathy and make honey-bees of
these gay butterflies? A spurious coin is
soon detected and worthless, and "slum-
mers" seldom do more than dabble in
charity to drop it for more congenial en-
ployment.
There is a thought still for earnest work.
ers in this new criticism. Cannot more
efficient good be accomplished in large
cities by consolidating many charities?
wealthy woman is distracted with demands
from hundred sides. She would like to
help all, but her money SO divided becomes
less useful. And to the giver of small
things the bewilderment is all the more
painful Woman.
