"A New York farmer who

the burdens of citizenship, shall
have any advantages over nom
residents and foreigners, VINO are
not taxpayers and have no burdens
of citizenship? | claim that |, as

At the Democratic club
meeting last Thursday evening, it
was demonstrated how difficult a
thing it is to make plea for dem
ocratic principles. W. ID. Old
ham was the speaker of the even-
ing, and about half the audience
was republicans, expecting at
least, to be well entertained. After
the speaker HAD delivered an eu-
logy on the Democratic party, the
eoloquence tagged, and it was
said the speech was failure. Mr.
Oldham can, on almost any sab.
ject, entertain, interest and elec-
trify an audience, but when ii
comes to convincing an audience
that Democratic principles are
right.and mean progression, pros
perity and happiness, even the elo-
quence of Mr.. Oldham is entirely
inadequate.

SPECIAL LEGISLATION.

Democratic leaders have had
much to say about class legisla-
ton and have used every effort TO
conyince the people that protective
tariff laws were enacted in favor
of the few instead of the entire
people. These arguments have
been met and refuted from every
school house in the country, where
Republicans have been permitted
to speak. We now have to turn to
the Democratic party for the only
examples of class Legislation in the
history of our country, the most
noted of which is the Oleomarga-
rine bill introduced into the house
by ". IL. Hatch in April 1856. This
bill was gotten up and passed in
the interest of the aristocratic
American Jersey Cattle Club of
New York City, of which club Mr..
Hatch is n member, and against
the interests Of western beef cat
tie. The restrictions this bill
placed upon oleomargarine are
such as to ultimately destroy its
manufacture, one of the great and
growing industries of the country,
But the heaviest blow has fallen
upon the beef producers of the
west. Oleomargarine, a pure, and
wholesome article of diet was
made from tallow, produced from
western corn in western cattle
pens. This tallow sold readily,
during the undIsturbed manufact-
ure of oleomargarine, at 10 to II
cents per pound. Since this bill
became a law the price has stead
lily declined till it is now worth
but , to 4 cents a pound, and the
price of western cattle, as ou1
farmers well know. have gone
down at least 80 per cent, result
ing in the loss of thousands OF
dollars to those engaged in the
rearing Of cattle, extending its dis
astrous effects to the man with but
one calf to sell. For the first time
in our history the beef producers
have found their fine, heavy, well
fatted cattle at discount, and all
brought about by sending a mar
to Congress, who should have
stood by and zealously guarded
every interest of his farming con.
stituency. But we have a remedy
at hand for the pernicious evil that
has been forced upon US by &
man who Sd easily becomes the
dupe and willing tool of a shrewd
organization. The remedy-the
ballots In the hands of the peo
pie and this year will be used tc
send a man to congress who vii,
legislate, not in the interest o.
any aristocratic cattle club of the
east, but for the in terest, anC
prosperity of the whole people.
