Change of Tactics.

Mr. David b. Jones seems to have
abandoned the hope of convincing
people that free trade is the Mecca
to be gained by the reelection Of
the great Grover. In the last week S
issue Of the Democrat he says;
"The real question of this campaign
''is not free whisky or British free
"trade. It is extravaganza vs.. econ,
"omy. The Republican party's
"solution of the surplus question is,
"squaader II. The Democratic solu-
''tion is, don't collect it."
We occupy 50 much space this
week in showing the fallacies of Mr..
Jones' previous presentations of the
tariff question, that we must defer
showing the inaccuracy of his state
ment of the position of Metropolitan
party in relation to the terrible sur
plus until future issue. A more
correct statement of the position of
the parties would be: The repub-
lican party says: Reduce it by revis.
ing our internal revenue and tariff
laws, so that the people of all the
nation, north as we'll as south, shall
be equally benefited and protected.
The democratic party says: Reduce
it by taking the tariff off from
articles and products in which the
people of the north are mainly
interested; retain it on sugar, rice,
etc, so that the constituents of dem
ocratic congressman may be pro-
tected and foreign manufacturers
benefited.

the folly and unreasonableness of
this claim, we some weeks ago re-
ferred to the Mineral Point zinc
works. To this Mr.. David B. Jones
demurs and seems to deem it a dis
courteous reference to his private
business. We wish to positively
disclaim any intention of giving Of
fence or Of needlessly making refer
ence to private business. Our only
purpose was to illustrate a point by
local application, which is always the
most effective. Our point is that any
manufacturer, to meet competition
must put his wares on the market
at the prices demanded by compel
itors, and if his present expenses in
producing the article are so high
that he cannot sell his wares at the
market value without loss to him
self, he must reduce expenses to a
point that will enable him to meet
the competition, If the drop in
price be 80 per cent. his reduction
of cost must be corresponding, and
inevitably all labor that enters into
the production Of his commodity,
whether it be on the material before
it comes to the factory, or after it
reaches there, must stand that 80
per cent. reduction. This condition
may not and probably does not fol-
low every temporary variation of
prices, but if the reduction of the
price to the consumer is to be per-
manent, as free-traders tell us it
would be with protective tariffs re-
moved, no sane man can hope that
the present rates of wages will CON
tinue in America; unless he can be
shown that manufacturers profits
now are equal to the amount Of
reduction the free.trader assumes
would follow a removal of the
"robber tariff" 4. e., as Mr.. Jones
says, ~ per cent.

Beg Pardon, Mr. Jones.

Free-traders claim that but for
the "robber tariff consumers Of
manufactured articles ia America
would procure those articles at
prices less to the extent Of the i'm
port duties now imposed on like
articles Of foreign production, while
the pay Of labor in the United
States would remain as high q at

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND did right
when he vetoed bill pensioning a
deserter. But one Armstrong, who
deserted from the Union army at
Bull Run and served afterward in
the Confederate army, is one Of
President CleyeIand's Indian Inspeo-
tors. How is that? The line as to
pensions and Is to appointments
ought TO be drawn at deserters.

A Hero Gone.

General Philip II. Sheridan died
at his summer home in Nonquitt
Mass, at 1890 o'clock last Sunday
evening. The end came painlessly,
and was the finale of his heart
trouble. Gen. Sheridan was the most
picturesque of the three most pecul-
iarly conspicous leaders of the Union
army during the war Of the rebellion.
Columns could be written of his
energy, dash and brilliancy. On
the long roll of civil and military
heroes there is no more splendid or
dearer name. He will be buried at

search made by the guerrillas His wife
begged them not to fire the house They
were deaf to her entreaties, and kindled the
flames. They left temporarily. The lady
extinguished the fire. A raider returned
and relighted it, and again went away The
woman put the fire out The third time the
man Larkin Skaggs came and set the house
on fire, and yet the third time the noble wife
extinguished it.
By that time Larkin Skaggs began to feel
the effects of the Lawrence free whisky he
had been imbibing, and was too intoxicated
to try to burn the house any more. A little
later ne himself was killed and the house was
spared Thus this wife, too, saved her hus-
bands life. Larkin Skaggs was the only one
OF the 500 guerrillas who lost his life in Law
renee, and that happened from his intoxica-
ton.
One man escaped in the strangest of ways,
by stumble. He tried to run across the
road and reach a clump of bushes In this
attempt he struck his foot and fell prone
upon his face in the gutter. A mounted
guerrilla was after him, full tilt, pistol raised
The doomed man felt something beneath him
as he lay. 1t was a loaded carbine, cooked
ready for use In that desperate moment he
seized it and aimed it at his pursuer The

but wheeled instantly and galloped off.

Businesses in the chaparral. Quantrll had
provided himself with fresh horses at Law

But Quantrill showed the qualifications Of
a general on his retreat. The rear of his

kept here 100 Of his most thoroughly trained
and reliable men. They were mounted upon
the freshest. strongest horses. When the
Union forces came near this 100 men would
halt and form in line OF battle. as if about TO

then hasten forward and form Then Guam
