In the absence of anything upon which
to base adverse criticism of Gen. Harri-
son, the Republican presidential nomi-
nee, ssome smarty Democrats are try
ing to raise the nonsensical "son-of-hiS-
father racket, as though it were a dis
qualification if not a crime to belong to
an illnstrious family. The fact that the
sons of Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S.
Grant, Stephen \. Douglas. Oliver p.
Morton, James A. Garfield. John A. Lo-
gan and James @. Blaine are all Repub-
licans, and that most of them were in at
tendance on the Chicago convention, is
creditable alike to their patriotism and
intelligence, and the fact that General
Harrison's grandfather was a brave and
distinguished soldier who defeated the
Democratic candidate for the presidency
forty-eight years ago, and that his great
grandfather was also q signer of the dec
laration of American independ-
ence. will not prejudice his case
with the American people since he
was chosen as the standard bearer Of the
Republican party by the Chicago conven-
ton, and every such attempt on the part
of the opposition is taken by the intelli-
gent public as evidence that they have
nothing to plead in favor of their own
party's cause or its candidates.
Many of the most eminent men in the
nation have owed their success more to
the good fortune of birth than to COM
manding talents. 1t is doubtful if Jeffer.
son Davis would ever have risen above
the position of adjutant of the first
dragons had he not been the son-in-law
of Zachary Taylor, the twelfth president
of the United States. Nor is it at all
probable that Robert f. Lee would ever
have been known to history had he not
been the son of Richard Henry Lee, the
immortal signer Of the declaration of IN
dependence and the celebrated Light
Horse Harry of the revolution, by which
circumstance he was enabled to graduate
at West Point.
This ''son-of-his-father7 racket is be-
ginning TO disgust fair minded people, At
is mean and nonsensical, and is only
used now TO divert public attention from
the real issue of principle.
Wichita eagle., 1888-06-27

and would break the force OF the on
slaught made against it by the Republi-
cans by denying that the issue Is free
trade against protection, their party
standing for the former idiom. But it is
no use. Actions speak louder than
words. though their utterances In con-
gress, in conventions, from the forum,
through the press-everywhere-are un-
mistakable. Their pet tariff measure
the Mills bill-as originally presented
and in the trend of the amendments
thereto, all show determined purpose
to bring about absolute free trade by the
shortest possible route; else what does
the transfer of the large number of arti-
cles to the free list and the material re-
duction of the rates of duties on others
signify?
Briefly stated, the question is, shall
our present system of raising revenue
for the support of the government, which
bears uniformly upon all the inhabitants
Of the country, and at the same time af-
fords protection to its varied industries
and all engaged therein, be maintained,
or shall we dispense with this equitable,
benefcent and economical system and
adopt the cumbersome, expensive, un-
equal and unsatisfactory method Of levy
ing upon and collecting directly from the
people the necessary money to detray
the expenses of the government
Think Of it, We taxpayes; if the Demo
cratic idea prevails, in addition to your
state, county, municipal and other local
taxes that you now pay 1T will be necessa-
ry to levy tax equivalent to five dollars
per capita upon the whole people for the
support of the general government.
Such burden as this without the cost of
living being appreciably lessened or the
reward of labor enhanced one iota, and
the burden would simply crush the life
out of the people; a burden that would
be simply impossible to bear; which
would result in wholesale bankruptcy
individual. municipal and national, and
in short time in anarchy.
Under the system that has been foster
ed and maintained by the Republican
party during the twentyfour years
of its control Of national affairs the peo-
pie Of this country have been prosperous
happy, and in the main contented to ar
extent unequaled in history. Shal
these conditions be continued, or viii
the people, with their eyes open, deliber
rtely supplant them with the other We
have above briefly and imperfectly de
scribed: 1t is not picture of mere fan
cy, but a portrayal of what will prove {
stern, woeful reality if permitted to oh
tain. 1t cannot, must not be, and tht
only way to prevent it is to support th'
Republican party and its nominees il
this contest.

TURN 'EM OUT.
OF today.

''Turn the rascals outr' was rung from
one end of the continent to the other
four years ago, by the fellows who tried
to turn the American government out
and the Jeff Davis government in. The
Republican party was turned out and the
opponents of the American idea stepped
aboard the ship of state and abouted the
vessel for strange waters. To make good
their cry of ''rascals" they have for four
years searched every corner and scrutl-
nized every record to find some dishon-
erable thing which might be laid at the
door of the Republican household. But
they have found nothing. In the mean
time many of the men who were put
forward to displace tried officials have
themselves gone wrong. And there Is
coming a day of reckoning when the
American people will be shown who were
the rascals. Grover, put your house IN
order, and it might be well to see that
the different departments and bureaus
were also looked after, thoroughly and
sDeedily.

ment In 1861, when Jerome was a "Eid''

good authority to stand up 'agin' the
author Of the Annals Of Kansas.

The unexpected brilliant Republican
victory Sin Oregon was like bursting
gall bladder in the mouth of the DEM
ocracy. They are still devoting them
selves to the vain undertaking OF explain
ing the cause of their defeat upon some
other than the real reason. The latest
excuse set up is that the railroads of the
state control its politics and that in this
instance they found it to their interest to
defeat the Democracy and continue the
Republicans in power. With all their
theorizing. however, they cannot obscure
the fact that the Republicans naturally
have majority in that state. and that
they have intelligence enough to under
stand what is best for them and for the
country. In short, Oregon was simply
prompted in this matter by the first law
of nature, i. e. self preservation. 1t IS
the same principle that will actuate the
country at large and cause it to restore to
power the party that has ever stood as
the exponent and defender of the Ameri-
can idea.

HARPER'S ON WICHITA.

Rarper's Monthly for July, in well
considered article on the west under the
caption of "The Great American Desert,
in speaking of the immense tracts of
fine agricultural lands which have
within few years been brought under
cultivation, says: 'In view Of
these facts-this phenomenal in
crease in population in all parts
of the new west-we naturally look for
the new cenLers of population which
supply this people, and to these IN the
words of the political platform, we
point with pride If the facts herein
set forth have been carefully considered,

We have it from Democratic authority
that since the St. Louis convention the
Clyde print works have received orders
for over two million bandana handker-
chiefs. OF course the orders were made
by Democratic importers for the benefit
of their Democratic customers. 1t also
means the contribution of at least one
hundred thousand dollars for the benefit
of English mill owners and operatives,
notwithstanding the orders could have
been filed more promptly and In every
other respect as satisfactorily by our
own factory people and the ona hundred
thousand dollars retained in circulation
at home. But that is an illustration Of
the Democratic idea.

Hon. John Martin, as the Democratic
candidate for governor, can put any man
the Republicans may nominate On his
mettle to get under the wire with ten
thousand majority. Topeka Democrat.
Thought you would climb down a
notch or two from your ridiculous alti-
tude of claiming that the Honorable
Judge John would carry the state and
be elected Inasmuch as Republican
success, state and national, is assured IN
advance, the party will probably not ex-
ert itself to the utmost but be content
with something ike forty thousand
majority all around, this year. You
will no doubt be frank enough TO con-
cede this much before election day rolls
round.

Thurman, like Cleveland, is on record
against second term. In speech made
in 1872 against the reelection of Grant,
he said: As long as the incumbent OF
the presidential Office can hope for an
other term he will use the immense pat
ronage of the government to procure his
denomination and secure his reelection.
Even with so good man as the old
Roman it makes some difference s'whose
OK Is gored, for while he is not candi-
date for reelection himself, he endorses
what he before condemned by accepting
a place on the ticket with man who is
such a candidate.

THE VETERANS LAMENT.

I am lonely and tired tonight
For no friendly face is near;
The wintry wind on its antics bold
Is all the souud that hear.
1t whistles down through the chimney old,
And around the rafters gray
Which have stood the storms OF ages past
Seems demon in it's play.
The loosened clap-board's mournful tattoo
And the broken window pane,
A kelrd and sad accompaniment keep
To the dismal autumn rain.
The leafess boughs of the maple trees
Mingle with the watchdog's groan,
The day dies out with the autumn blast
The darkness utters moan.
We are herded here like kline in stalls,
Or prisoners in their cells;
No sound from the grim old poor-house
walls,
Our woe to our comrades tells.
I gave to my country in her need
The best of my life away,
And my youthful hopes like wind swept
reeds
Went down in the bloody fray.
I bore the heat of the battle fierce.
The burdens of marches long,
Till foe was conquered and country saved
And we sang our victors' song.
No bullet drank of my warm life blood,
Though they fell like summer rains;
But the marches long through storm and
flood
Sapped the strength from my youthful
veins.
Yes, Pm tired, sick, and hopeless tonight,
For no friendly hand will save;
And | so proud in my youthful prime,
Must lie in pauper's grave.
The president in his costly robes,
The veteran ragged and gray,
VIII stand together when life is done
In the final judgment day.
The secret then of each heart shall be,
As writ with fiery pen,
And God shall sit On the judgment seat
And judge between US then.
ARTHUR HODGSoN.
