Our e. C. quotes approvingly the fol-
lowing: "Three months after the pass
age of the Mills bill there would not be
an idle person in the country willing to
work" OF course not, the thousands
of workmen then idle would realize
that they might much better starve to
death at once than die by slow torture
under the pittance wages that would
then be given. We are glad to see that
the Gazette recognizes the dangers in
volved in the passage of the bill.

amend section seventeen of the bill of rights
of the constitution of the State of Kansas shall
be submitted to the electors of the State for

Another Prominent Convert.

1t is out of the question for any
single newspaper to keep a record of
the companies, the regiments, the bat
talions Of leading citizens, of thinking
men, who are deserving the party of
Cobden-Club free trade for that organ
ization which believes in protection to
the American people and to American
industries. Grover Cleveland is per.
sonally obnoxious to large following
of his party-that is certain. But his
open Endorsement of Britain's policy
and the evident satisfaction with which
his words and actions have been re.
ceived on the other side of the Atlantic
have disgusted thousands more who
will either not vote or will support
Harrison. This movement is wide
spread. In single sections Of New
York State enough men have publicly
announced their change of heart to
overthrow Cleveland's majority of 1047
in 1884.
Even here in Kansas Democrats are
turning every day to Harrison and
Morton. The Bourbon journals are
fond Of saying that the converts to Re.
publicanism are men of no standing.
Perhaps here is an example that will
have some weight with them.
Hon. J. J. Barkep, chairman of the
Democratic Central Committee of Don.
iphan county, made public on Wednes-
day letter in which he withdraws all
allegiance to the party of his former
faith and promises fidelity to Republi,
canism. AS an indication of the drift
of public opinion the letter is interest.
ing. Its full text is:
TROY, KAN, July 81. 1S8S-To the
Democratic Central Committee of Don
iphan county: l hereby tender my
resignation as chairman of your honor.
able body, to take place at once. My
reasons for so doing are that believe
the position upon the financial ques-
tions of the day. dictated to the Demo
cratic convention at st. Louis by Pres.
ident Cleveland and embraced in the
Mills tariff bill, is detrimental to the
best interests of our country; and be.
lieving this with sincerity, l find it i'm
possible to any longer affiliate with the
Democratic party, and have cast my lot
with the party which l believe repre-
sents policy which is most conducive
to the welfare of the producers, manu-
facturers and laborers of this country.
l believe in protecting American labor,
and am opposed to building up British
institutions at the expense of wage
workers of America. l shall be found
hereafter working in the ranks of the
Republican party. J. j. BARKEP.

Mr.. Patrick Ford, the editor of the
Irish World and leader of the Irish
Americans in this country, cannot say
enough in praise of Mr.. Blaine and pro-
lection. His paper supports the Re-
publican ticket most enthusiastically.
In the last issue, speaking of the grand
reception accorded Mr.. Blaine in New
York, it says:
This courteous recognition was due
to the working people who constitute
the wealth-produceIs Of the country
and whose interests are more directly
affected than any other by the free
trade conspiracy represented by Cleve-
land and his labor-hating allies of the
South, assisted, as in 1864, by England
and her Tory-worshipers in America.
With the wage-workerS the issue
whether the Protective system shall be
permitted to be undermined and de
strOyed is of Immediate and most press
ing Importance, and they come to well
come Mr.. Blaine, not as a Republican
but as the foremost champion of pro-
lection and encouragement to diversi-
fled industry in America.

The reason that wheat is worth 81 2

The reason that wheat is worth 81 %
bushel in Liverpool when it is worth
only 20 cents In Abilene, is because il
costs just So cents per bushel to ship
wheat from Abilene to the mouth that
eats it in Liverpool. If by the encour-
agement of home industries the mouths
that eat the farmers surplus wheat
could be brought to Kansas or Missouri,
the consumer could pay just as much
for his wheat and the price would go
into the farmers pocket instead of into
the middlemen's and the Golfers of
transportation companies.

WHY He is for Harrison.

T. A. Reynolds, an ex-soldier. a
Democrat. and travelling man with
Henry W. King & Co., clothing, says
the Chicago Tribune, has become con-
WINGED of the error of his ways and has
joined the Republican forces. He will
be found this fall in the Harrison
camp, ''voting as he shot"
1t is not improbable that converse
ton that recently occurred between
Mr.. Reynolds and an Englishman had
something to do with his change of
heart. 1t took place on train in Kan
sas. The Englishman announced him
self the agent of a powerful English
syndicate. The Chicago man inquired
his errand in that part of the country
60" replied the Englishman, I'VE
hold mortgages on pretty nearly every
thing in sight, don't you know"
Here he gave comprehensive sweep
of his arm in the direction of the sur
rounding horizon, and continued with
the air of the landed proprietor:
"We're watching things closely just
at present, for if the Democrats carry
the election all of these mortgaged
lands will come into our hands. With
Cleveland and free trade, ''said the En-
glishman with the air OF man stating
an ordinary business proposition,
''these farmers can't keep up the pay
ment of their interest, don't you know,
and we shall foreclose on their farms.
And it will be a jolly good thing for
the country, too. The trouble with
you Americans is that you've no class
distinctions. One mans as good as
another, and common navy, by Jove,
working with his hands today may be
landed proprietor or a member of
Congress tomorrow. That's all because
the common people get too much wages.
Three shillings Us cents day is quite
enough for any of them, and low wages
will keep them in their place, don't
you know. I'm a Democrat myself,
you see. The English people are heart
lily in sympathy with you Democrats. -
BY this time Reynolds was hot and
announced that he wouldn't vote for
any party that had that sort of friends.
ThencefOrth he was for Harrison and
protection. During the awkward pause
that followed dark-eyed, languid bru-
nette on the other side of the car re-
marked with a flash in her eye that she
was Southerner by birth and educa-
ton and Democrat born and bred,
but that if that was the program she
guessed she'd see what she could do in
the way Of getting somebody to follow
the Chicagoan's example. Ifshe keeps
her word Harrison is sure Of one vote
at least in the "Solid South.''

The agricultural products Of the
United States, outside Of tobacco and
cotton, amount to 3.O0O,OOO,OOO pei
year. or this quantity about 81 per cent
is consumed at home and only about S
per cent is exported, that is to say the
home market takes 90 per cent and the
foreign market takes only per cent.
Thus can be seen the importance Of the
home market and the comparative in
significance of foreign market to our
farmers in the consumption Of their
surplus products.

Regrets the Mistake. y

The Western School Journal fol
August copies our editorial on THE
Examination Farce" as indicative of
the feeling throughout the State re-
garding the last set of examination
questions. In an editorial comment it
is stated that Supt. Lawhead informs
us that in the proof part of question
four was omitted, and that theQuestion
should not be considered by examiners
in issuing certificates" and that he
regrets the mistake"
A pretty time to regret mistakes
when the certificates have all been
issued! What do we pay State Su-
perintendent for if 1t is not to see that
there are no mistakes" in giving our
teachers fair and just examination?
The Union Labor party has all the
vices in an exaggerated form of the
Democratic party, and it is very for
tunate for the country that it is not as
strong. The Democratic party aims,
for present purposes, to set one section
of the country against another, but the
Union Labor party aims to set man
against man; neighbor against neigh
Dor; labor against capital: employed
against employer. II is based on the
meanest passion of the human soul,
envy, and ought naturally to draw all
the meanest men in the country to its
standard. The Union Labor idea is to
borrow money Of a man. and then call
him 'robber" for letting you have it;
to hate a rich man because he is rich;
to abuse an employer because he is an
to curse the prosperous for
their prosperity,-[Noble Pfehtis.

The influx of large population of
farmers into Kansas may raise the price
of land, but it will not raise the price
of farm products. Farmers do not sell
their surplus products to their fellow
farmers. The influx of large manu-
featuring population would directly
and materially raise the price of every
thing produced upon the farm, because
all men are consumers of farm products,
and if a man is engaged in some other
calling than farming he is compelled to
buy farm products, while he produces
nothing which win compete with the
farmer in the price he is to obtain for
his products Encourage the manufac-
turer.
