The Administration of President Cleveland
has done much to re-unite the country and
dispel sectionalsm. There have been no race
conflicts in the South and the bloody shirt has
been laid aside except by those who were
valiant only with their tongues, like Blaine,
Foraker and some of that other sort who soon
tired of the army and left it to seek office at
home. Not only has sectionalism died out,
but the South and the North have been close
ly connected by business interests, much to
the advantage of both sections. The man
who wants to revive the memories of the war,
disturb business relations between the North
and South and excite race conflicts, as exis-
ted under Republican rule, will vote for Har-
rison [Blaine] and Morton and Lang.

Dakota People Starving.

NJ. ]. Horpmann, of Minneapolis, who has
been investigating the condition of the farm
ers in Ramsey county, Dakota, who were re:
ported to be starving to death, returned
Tuesday night He says there are seventy
families who are absolutely destitute of food
and fuel, and something must be done, and
Immediately. The real condition of the peo-
pie is beyond description. Men, women and
children are in rags and they have not a cent
of money in the world. Their crops are to-
tally destroyed and their land, stock and farm
implements are mortgaged. Absolute dis.
tress prevailed everywhere. A minister was
living in one room with his wife and two
small children One of the children was
wrapped up in crib in order to keep warm,
and the other was blue and shiyering with
cold and emaciated with hunger. There was
no fuel with the exception of a little dry
manure, which is all that any of the families
have to burn, and the only thing they had to
eat was dry crust of bread. Mr.. Horpmann
says that the frost which came in August des-
troyed all of the wheat that there was, as well
as all vegetables. even those which are as
hardy as turnips.

The True Issues Before the People.

Mr. Daniel addressed the Senate, Septem-
Der &c, on the resolution to refer the Pres-
dents annual message. He declared that the
issue before the people in the presidential
campaign was not an issue between free trade
and protection. 1t was not an issue raised
against the manufacturing interests of the
country. 1t was simply an isgue propounded
to the people, through their Democratic
spokesman, for the release of an unneeded
surplus in the treasury, now amounting to
$3.50, 900, 900; for the relief of taxpayers from
the excessive and unnecessary taxation; for
the removal of membranes to manufactures
by the furnishing of cheaper raw materials;
for the removal of restrictions to commerce
and navigation; for the rescue of agriculture,
now in decline, and for unbinding the cords
which tied the hands of labor. In fine, it
was anissne for and in behalf of labor in many
fields of enterprise, and against monopoly by
overtaxation in many branches oftrade. In
conclusion, he said that the Democracy had
written on its banners. Unnecessary taxa
ton is unjust taxation and in that sign it
would conquer or fall,

Republicans of the reckless kind, talk glibly
of Democratic extravaganza, yet it is a mat
ter of record that from 1888 to 1889, both years
inclusive the Senate undertook to increase the
appropriations as they passed the House by
more than One Hundred and Ticelre Millions
of Dollars and when the bills were in confer
ence the Democrats made the Senate recede
10 the extent of more than FVty.eigH Mil
lions. During this session of Congress, the
Senate undertook to increase the appropria-
tons for the present fiscal year by more than
Ttcenty- one Millions, and the conferees on
the part of the Democratic House forced the
Senate conferees to recede from more than
Elercn Millions. Which is the party of econ

Outrageous Robbery.

The New York Times publishes a compar.
ison of the difference in the prices in New
York and London of mems clothing, which
every workingman and wage Garner in the
United States should read and ponder. The
injustice of the outrageous system which
makes this robbery of Americans possible,
the people can correct at the polls. Here is
the comparative list:
For instance, broadcloth suit which costs
$50 in New York cost only S22 in London.
A heavy business suit which costs $50 in
New York, costs but $l3 in London.
A spring serge overcoat which costs $50 in
New York, costs but 49, so in London.
A winter beaver overcoat which costs $35
in New York costs but S14.50 in London.
silk hat which costs SIS in New York
costs but So in London.
These articles altogether cost in New York
$140 In London they cost but SCI. The
man who buys these clothes therefore, in New
York pays $40 more for them than he could
buy them for in London.
Suppose we analyze the remarkable facts
presented in the foregoing, and inquire what
causes this difference in the prices of the two
cities?
This answer is, our high protective tariff
No one will dispute that, with the tariff re-
moved, the same goods could be purchased as
cheaply in New York or st. Paul as in Lon
don; that is, as cheaply, with the freight add
ed. The man, therefore, who pays $40 for
clothes in St. Paul really buys SCI worth of
clothes, on which he pays $40 taxes.
And where do these taxes go?
If the goods are manufactured in this
country not one cent reaches the treasury.
1t is simply $40 taken by law from the man
who buys SCI worth of clothes, and given to
the man who grows wool and the man who

There have been no Indian wars and out
breaks during the Cleveland Administration,
and no Custer massacres. This is due to fair
treatment of the Indians by honest Indian
Agents appointed by the President. And it
may be remarked that the appropriation for
Indian Affairs was more than three and a halt
million dollars less in 1886, under Democratic
rule, than in 1882, under Republican.

Owing to question of law in regard
to an examiner teaching in a special
school where teachers may attend, Prof.
Smith has retired from the faculty of
the Summer Institute. This is the cause
of much regret on the part OF the stud.
ents and also Prof. Smith. BY tho ear.
nest request of the Students, he has very
generously offered to donate his services
as teacher of physiology. The School
Law provides that no person, who has
not certificate to teach physiology, is
eligible to teach after January 1st, 1889.
In view of this, 1t is certainly very
kind in Prof. Smith to thus offer his
services. 1t is not certainly determined
who will take Prof. Smiths place on the
faculty, but most likely Prof. T. r.

School.
