PROBABLY the most Obtuse busi-

ufacturers of the United States.
They haven't the slightest idea of
what is to their interest. Here are
the democrats working tooth and

put on the free list 50 that our man
ufacturers can "hood the markets of
the world" to use Mr.. Mills IAN
guage, with American-made goods,

see It. They are foolish enough to
believe that the underp paid labor of

with cheaply-made goods, the effect
of which would be to drive them out

The Origin Of 80. *"

The foolish story that this cabalis-

hensiou of President jackson, who is
supposed TO have spelled it "Oll

\ Kentucky journal, traces the use
Of the expression back to the famous
Whig campaign of lSlo, and tits not
unlikely that It was used then, but
its real origin goes back yet further
to the days when Old Kookuk, the

ufiN the initial letters of his name TO
government treaties at the time when
Black Hawk, his formidable rival,

for Black Hawk, and even in that
early day il quickly came TO mean

in good form, We believe that the
best authorities are agreed that this
was the true origin Of the term.

hear Of the splendid progress Of the
republican cause in other.parts Of the
west. Then the general himself
greets with unaffected simplicity
those who come to see him, impresses
all with his manliness and worth,
and in brief speeches gives toall the
master thoughts which unlock the
disputed problems Of current dis
cussion. A man 80 frank, 50 manly
and so judicious, gains confidence
and affection every day. General
Harrison has done more to assist his
own election, merely by showing
himself the man that he is, than
any other speaker contributor or
leader has yet done for him. The
political influence Of these meetings
at his home can hardly be overesu-
mated. Friends and foes will
have to admit whether western
states give remarkable rcpubli-
can maioritics as now seems proba-
bic, or fall behind expectations, that
they would have done less for the
republican cause if candidate 50
peculiarly qualified as General Har-
rison had not been nominated, or if
he had kept silent. His own per-
sonal strength, the hearty apprecia-
ton Of the sound sense, prudence,
ability and patriotism he has shown,
will be worth thousands of votes to
his party when the decisive struggle
comes, and justify confident hopes
Of victory in every western state
Tribune.

A FARMERs INTEREST.

According to the census Of 1850
the population Of the United States
was 10000, 600 people. or this mum.
ber only about one-third were wage
earncrs-that il, onc-third by their
work supported the other two-thirds.
The population is now probably co.
100000, and If the same ratio is
carried out there would be 2O,0OO,OOO
people who earn wages, or live 10y
work. OF this number nearly one
half are engaged in agricultural
pursuits, and therefore their inter
ests are paramount to any other
single industry. This class of our
citizens require IA market i'm which
TO dispose of their surplus products.
The statisticinn informs us that out
side of tobacco and cotton about %
per cent of the farm products are
consumed ut home and only about S
per cent Is exported. This gives IA
very precise statement Of the insig-
nihcancc of the foreign market 10
the farmer i'm the consumption of
his surplus products. And yet, as
insignificant as il may appear the S
per cent of his products controls or
establishes the price of the 81 per
cent, An illustration may bc made
in the price of wheat: Mr., 4 goes
10 to Mr., B. to purchase Il small
quantity of wheat; he asks the
price, b refers to his paper and says
1t Is worth 20 cents, Why? lie
finds that In Liverpool they are
paying II price sufficient for the spec
ulutor here to pay that price, That
is, lac cam afford topny 20 cents for
the wheat l3 cents for trousporta-
uou, 10 cents for insurance, o cents
for shrmlugc, and sell IL In Liver
pool at sl,lO u handsome profit ON
his Investment, And yet in Liver
pool the American farmer has TO
compete with the paupcr and cheap
labor of India In the disposal of his
product
Now suppose it was different.
Suppos, that American mauumc-
togics should increase sufficiently to
consume that eight per cent, aud a
little moro. II would then bo evil
dent that the farmers standard
price market would ho transferred
from Liverpool TO his own home,
aud the cheap Mborcrs OF other ma
tious would have the burden of
transportation, interest, insurance,
and spccuators' profits, instead Of
American farmers, The increase OF
capital would help pay his taxes,
The better prices would stimulate
him tou morc economical mode OF
culWro, and a moro general distribu-
tIou ot the soil ltwould then morc
nearly rtmunemto the farmer for
his toll, and give him profit ON his
investment

Warsaw are greatly exercised over the i'm

water is taken from beautiful body of
water known as Center lake, which adjoins
the town, but the water has been fearfully
polluted by crude oil, which the water com
pany recently introduced as fuel at the
pumping station Every drop of water
drawn from the mains is thoroughly im-
pregnated with the petroleum, which is so
offensive that it cannot be used. The tank
in which the oil is stored recently sprung
leak, and the fluid found its way into the
lake, and the water has been impregnated
even as far down as the Tippecanoe river. 1t
is feared that all of tine fish IN the lake have
been destroyed IL will be impossible to pu-
rify the water inside OF three months, and
the use OF hydrant water will have to be
abandoned for the winter. The city council
will be petioned at once to have the nuisance
abated as soon as possible.
