We have had quite All episode. Miss
Sarah e. Hyner of Columbiana. Ohio,
has been among US. She is we'll ed
ucated lady. Her judgment has been
matured by reading, travel and asso-
citation with people of culture. She
has visited judiciously all the promi-
nent places of interest in the north and
east. She is ready writer of good
prose and passable poetry, both tend
ing to the sentimental. In religion
she is Methodist, in politics Repub-
lican, in both Jacobin, aud therefore
in Southeast Missouri Pessimist. To
say that she was disgusted with every
thing she saw is putting the case mild
ly. She has returned home carrying
along about one hundred weight of
minerals and ton of disagreeable facts.
She will outline Southeast Missouri
severely. She does not know how
much the country hasgained in twenty
years, and is impatient with the slow
growth of a great work.

Manufacturers and Farmers.

The supporters of tariff reform are
under great obligations to NJ. James P.
Foster, President Of the Republican
League of the United States, for his in
valuable services in bringing out the
real issue involved in the present Cal
vass, which is the issue between the
classes and the masses; between the
protected interests on the one side, and
the body of the American people on
the other. Nobody has ever put this
quite so clearly and bluntIy as Mr..
Foster has done in his famous "Confi-
dental" circular.
It will be remembered that Mr.. Fos-
ter declares it to be ''a fact that the
manufacturers of the United States are
most benefited by our tariff laws
With all due respect to him. however,
we must say that this statement would
not carry great weight if it stood only
as the opinion of the President of the
Republican League of the United
States. What lends Importance to the
circular is the quotation of the we'll
considered opinion on this point OF Sell
ator Edmunds or Senator Morrill, OF
Vermont, the description of Mr.. Fos-
ter's authority as"a Republican United
States Senator, from state which new
er had Democratic representative in
either house of Congress or Demo-
cratic State officer" rendering it cer-
tain that either Mr.. Edmunds or Fir.
Morrill, 10 the man. Both are Republi-
cans of such prominence and such
familiarity with the subject of which
they treat that it would be hard to de-
eide whose words would carry the
more weight.
Senator Edmunds or Senator Morrill,
used these '.strong words and bitter,
but true" as quoted by Mr.. Foster:
Il was solicited to contribute to pro-
tective-tariff league, and replied that
If the manufacturers OF the United
Stntes in their associated capacity

most directly important benefits, of the

manufacturers" as "reaping the fruits
of the tariff policy" Still again, he
referred to the manufacturers OF
Pennsylvania, aoho are more highly

times are prosperous" All of this
was preliminary to the Senator's decIa-
ration tnat .if Ihad nay soay about it,
Isoould put the manufacturers of Penn
sytuania under the fire and fry alt the

clussion: .'If the Mills Tariff Bill comes
to the Senate, there will be some
votes cast there which will open the
eyes of some OF these people who have,
White gathering their millions, treated
the Republican party as their humble
servant
In the face of such testimony from
such source, nobody will question that
the high-tariff policy is policy in the
interest of the man ufacturers, who get
practically the sole benefitu Of it. and
who in consequence "make large fort

IS strong in traditions. He is grand.
son of man whose scalp the Indians
did not get, owing to the blind stub
born valor of his soldiers. He is the
great grandson of man who signed
the Declaration of Independence after
other men had drawn it up. And, by
the way, the honor of having had any,
thing to do with that document be-
comes small by degrees and beautifully
less by proportion as the fact becomes
clear that communism and anarchy, SO
rampant among us, are merely the ini-
tial idea of that paper gone to seed.
The great grandson's great grand
father aforesaid was also member OF
the Virginia convention which, in spite
of his persistent opposition, ratified the
Constitution of the United States. But
Gen. Harrison is also the great, great,
great, great grandson of man who
took part in the execution of Charles
the First and paid the penalty of that
hlunder in statesmanship. But Gen.
Harrison will find that a pedigree that
thet runs back to William the Con-
guerer. through any one of the
second-handed women who in Virginia
were sold for even one hundred and
fifty pounds of tobacco apiece, or any
man that married one of them, is not
worth the butt cut OF a bristle. What
is the Benjamin Harrison of to-day?
The answer is, he'll mediocre man of
dead level respectability, eminent for
his failures and now set up as the stalk
ing horse of James g. Blaine, who is
the prophet of the utterly unprincipled
spoils grabbing and camp following
element which twenty-five years OF
national power had grathered around
the Republican party.s
Now for the conven ton that nomi-
mated Gen. Harrison. A letter written
to me by lady at Niles, IN Michigan,
says, "On last Sabbath day a New
York delegation of Republicans passed
through here for the Chicago Conven-
ton. They were nearly all drunk and
a hard crowd. They had their liquor
on board with them and left the bottles
thrown out along the road and around
the depots. Everywhere their actions
said that they were going on to nomi-
nate the devil"
But truce to politics. The air is
getting hot and smells of birthstone.
From "up the river" the news comes
that the Farmers Alliance has improv.
ed on the church. We are to hear it.
Of local news we can only report that

THE RULING PASSION STRONG,

whose similar taste IN one thing led them
to meet together on an occasion long
remembered by many present One was

the French keeper of sailors loft. The
judge was holding court. and the loft
keeper was an important witness in
case before him. The witness was called
but he came not, nor answered. Where

the non appearance of the witness.
He will not answer, your honor re-

Immediately change came over the
judges ferings and expression. and in
mild but earnest and clearly heard voice
he asked, Is it true, sheriff, that the
cock-fght is now going on:'

You'd better want to get to Heaven,
