The consumers of and chocolate will BE- grail
fed at the prospect Of getting their favorite drink
at about three fourhs the price they have heretofore
been paying. The Baker Company yesterday cut the
price ten cents pound which IS equal TO about
twenty five per cent. This caused considerable sur
pise and the rinor got about that the recent com
binatlon Of the Sugar Trust with the National Croceis'
Association was the cause Of II.
f. B. Thurber, OF the firm Of Thuibcr Whyland &
Co.. said to a reporter that the Grocers' Association
had nothing to do with the action Of the Baker Com
many He said that large number of manufacturers
of cocoa and chocolate had recently started In busl-
ness and that the cut was due to the sharp com
petition which the increased production had caused.

What WaShburn Says About
that "Open Letter."

A reporter of the Minneapolis Trl-
bune interviewed en.FWashburn in
relation to the "Open Letter" recently
issued, and here is what Mr.. w. said:
"My attention has been called to
this attack upon me, and all the re-
ply that it seems Necessary to make Is
to pronounce it a tissue of misrepre-
sensations, ISLANDERS and falsehoods
from beginning to end. Nobody
would make All anonymous attack of
this character but a coward and a
sneak. I do4ot feel it at all necessary
to enter upon any defense. For more
than 80 years my home has been in
this city and State, and my acts,
public and private, speak for them
selves. My merits and dement's are
known to every citizen of the State
who cares to know them, and it would
simply be belittleing human nature to
suppose that anything so shamelessly
false as this, published anonymously.
would receive any credency by
thoughtful men. 1t is probable thai
the authorship of this base attack may
become known at some time, when
its real animus will no doubt become
apparent"
Morris tribune., 1888-12-19

The New YORK Herald las this to
say to it's southern Democratic broth.
rem. Coming as it does from a radi'
cal Democratic source, it is rather
significant: ~E-~.-
We ask Southern men to look al
this. For nearly four years the Dem
ocratic party, as the party in power
has been ruled in Congress by an i'm
mense Southern majority. What
have the Southern men in Congress
accomplished? What have they done
for the whole country, for their own
section, or for the Democratic party
Nothing, absolutely nothing, except
to get their party defeated. Is it not
time for the Southern men to stop
talking about the "all prevailing, all
conquering Ango-Saxon race" and
so arrange their politics that "the
South" shall not solidly misnanage
and bring to defeat any party with
which it allies itself?
It is ga condition, not theory"
that confronts the South In other
matters besides the tariff.

A Masked Battery.

A syndicate OF disappointed and
envious political denlagognes, living
in and about Minneapolis, have issued
o l5-page pamphlet with tho title OF
An Open Letter to the Hon. W.D.
Washburn,n but being too cowardly
to give their names, have signed the
document investigators" Soon
spiratorsn would have been more APP
propriate. This pamphlet unpublished
for the purpose of telling the people OF
the State Of Minnesota what a mean
man w. ID. Washburn is. and Is being
circulated over the State in the hope,
we presume, that it will defeat Mr.
Washburn's election as United States
Senator. One of these pamphlets has
fallen into our hands, aud after look
ing over its contents somewhat care
fully we find 1t to be full of charges
against Mr.. Washburn, but perfectly
destitute of any proof to sustain
single one of the charges made. 1t il
just what might be expected from
men who are ashamed of their worf
and too cowardly to have their names
known. Honorable men do not make
charges against other men and the1
skull behind a masked battery in thu
shape of an anonymously signed
pamphlet. 1t partakes too much o
the guerrilla mode of warfare or thu
cowardly assassin, who, afraid to NEE
his opponent face to face, sneaks VI
behind in the dark and stabs him IL
the back. So too has this syndicat
of cowardly and disappointed poll
ticians. Not having the manhoo'
and fairness to come out over thei
own signature and make charge
against Mr.. Washburn, they attacl
him disguised as investigators,
when, as a matter of fact, they are tn
last men in the world who would lik
to be Investigated.

Hope for the Lakes.

OrtonvIlle Herald-Star: The adj
vocates of improved navigation on
Big Stone and Traverse lakes, and
the Minnesota and Red rivers, think
they see in the possible election oil
Mr.. Washburn to the United States
Senate, and the accomplishment OF
Mr.. Comstock's election, substantial
hope of an appropriation by the 51st
Congress, sufficient to inaug9rate the
great improvement. Both gentlemen
are known to be favorable to the
scheme. While Mr.. Washburn rep
resented this district In Congress lie
was particularly active in the matter
of securing government attention to
the improvement of Big Stone lake,
even going so far as to send d. g.
Siam, of Ortonville, to Washington
In the interest of the trip. And this
lis only one Of many instances where
Mr.. Waslburn has devoted his time
and money to the public good where
the interests of the State at large de.
manded 1t. In almost every section
Of the State some interest or another
is indebted to Mr.. Washburn for its
deyelopement tt seems 10 us that
he is the kind of q man the State
needs In the United States Senate.
The wonder is, that after it has be-
come generally known that he could
be induced to accept the place, that
there should be any opposition to him
at all. The Herald-Star believes that
what opposition there Is will be
crushed out before the Legislature
meets.

A wall Street Mans Experiment.

The bookkeeper Of 9 Wall street bank,
a man deeply versed In psychology, en-
ploys his spare time in making practical
tests of his researches. There is a hui
morous vein In his composition, and
these tests are frequently Of laughable
nature. He is a firm believer In the
theory that man nagnifes his own little
troubles and will unconsciously put him
self out Of his way to avoid things that
have no existence In point Of fact. The
other day this philosopher carefully
placed sheet Of blotkng paper on the
edge Of desk in such way that half
the sheet hung over. The desk was in a
narrow passage that was much used by
the clerks, and the philosopher had no
end Of fun watching them pass. Instead
of showing the blotting paper out Of the
way every clerk who passed would
squeeze himself against the wall In order
to avoid knocking ii down. The fat
clerks had hard time Of it, and one Of
them cricked his spinal column in par
ticularly fine acrobatic feat.-New York
Evening Sun.

the minds intelligent conception of
it's surroundings, the splendor of the
country's flag and its precious signifi-
canoe may appeal for the future citi.
zen's loyal recognition and love. When
the affairs of our homes, about which
we gather in delightful peace and Sc
curity, because that flag floats in I'M
disputed triumph and sovereignty, are
draped with its beauty; when in our
hearts there lives and glows the full
recognition of the inspiring fact that
the most precious thing in the Amer
lean home. whether it be cottage or
palace, is the flag of the American
Union of States, and when that flag
is made the pictorial text book in oul
schools and the illuminated map that
shall spread before the fancy of youth
the battle fields of liberty, more will
have been done to throttle anarchy
and insure the perpetuity of the Re
public than the brave police or Cat
ling guns can do.
Morris tribune., 1888-12-19

The executive committee of the
State Farmers Alliance met in St
Paul last week, and issued another
address, setting forth the good the
Alliance he's done, and urging the
members of the Legislature to oppose
the election to the u. s. Senate or any
of the positions in the gift of the Leg
islature of any man who is or has been
connected with railroads. From this
we have right to infer that the
Farmers Alliance of Minnesota is
opposed to all railroads, and believes
that the country would be better off
without them. But we would like to
inquire what would Minnesota be
supposing she had no railroads cross
ing her territory? In that case there
would be little need of Farmers Alli-
ance, as there would be no farmers
worth mentioning. Farming in Min
nesota without railroads to take their
produce to market would be about as
Improbable business as man could
engage in. A good deal like raising
swine in a community made up ex-
cluslyely of Jews. 1t strikes Us that
the executive committee of the Farm
ers' Alliance of Minnesota is composed
of cranks by a large majority.

Balance of Trade.

Up to December LIST the shipments
of gold from this cns.ntry to Europe
amount to $50, 500, 900, against $l4, OOO,-
900 for the corresponding period OF
1887, while the receipts have been but
81, 500, 900, as against $39, 100000 for
the same period last year. This gold
has gone abroad to settle trade balanc-
es against us, in lieu of bread stuffs
and provisions, the foreign trade on
which has enormously fallen OFT dur
ing the year. A still better way to
keep our trade balances on the right
side would be to send abroad manu-
featured products, the making OF
which would supply market for our
surplus bread stuffs and provisions.
But as it seems to have decided that
"foreign trade is not desirable" we
will 60 on shipping gold to pay debts
until we get so poor that we can con-
tract no more debts; then everything
will be lovely, we will have none OF
that detestable "foreign trade" and
so will find both happiness and pros
perity in swapping jackknives be-
tween ourselves.-Farm, Stock and
Home.
We suppose the above is intended
as an argument in favor Of free trade,
as the journal from which we quote
is an advocate offree trade principles.
But it strikes us that the facts given
furnish the very best reason why the
American system ofprotection should
prevail. 1.-THE gold that has gone
abroad" was shipped from this coun.
try to pay for foreign manufactured
articles foolishly imported to this
country, simply because they could
be purchased trifie cheaper than the
same articles could be manufactured
here, and thereby giving employment
to foreign mechanics and laborers
instead of American wage-workers
That's what's the matter. And this
this too under the rubber tariff" thai
we heard so much about before cleo.
| ton. Talk about sending abroad
manufactured articles" when the
same articles can be made enough
cheaper abroad than they can here in
the United States, to make paying
business to import them from thai
country What nonsense Then
how would it be if free trade should
obtain in this country, when
even under a protective tariff the
balance OF trade is against us? 1--WE
want to open up the markets of the
world to our manufactured goods" is
/ the cry of free traders. Well, there
| is the market of free trade England
"opened up" to you, why in thunder
don't you go to manufacturing goods
and shipping them, and change the
balance of trade in our favor?

One John MeKans, of Graves End,
Kings county, N. Y, is said to have
done about as much to defeat Cleve-
land as other one man. McKane was
a Bourbon Democrat, and his action
made the Democrats of Brooklyn
fighting mad, and they abused him
the best they knew how, calling him
all manner Of bad names. "A few days
since McKane told how he was going
to get back at them. HeeWill take the
McKane legion, 300 strong, down to
Washington next March to help inau-
gurate Gen. Harrison. On the big silk
banner which will be carried behind
the brass band of the McKane legion,
will appear the announcement that
McKane and 1000 other Graves End
Democrats have decided to join the
Grand Old Party.
Morris tribune., 1888-12-19

The newspapers opposed to the cleo
ton of Gen. Washburn as u. S. Sena-
tor are acting on the principle that
the more they abuse Washburn the
more they strengthen their fayorite
candidates. Our forty years expert
ence in politics teaches US differently.
We believe we can be of more bene-
fit to a candidate by laying before the
public his good qualities than we can
by abusing his opponents. Personal
attacks in the end help more than
they damage the man SO attacked, and
those who are now engaged in the
dirty work of abusing Mr.. Washburn
will ere long find this to be true.
