A Farmer on Protection.

Mr.. Demonstrating the tariff ques-
tion from the farmers standpoint it appears
that no other class is SO directly interested,
or would be more affected than the farmer
if methods proposed by our President had
been adopted, and the Mills Bill bad be-
come law. 1t should be the duty of every
farmer before he casts his vote ON the 9th OF
Nov. TO closely study his individual interest,
and closely anaylize the offerings of the
Tariff for Reyenue only and the advices of
our President. 1t is settled fact that no
class oflaborers have made any complaint
that the necessaries of life were too high, or
that they were upjustly taxed. or that their
condition was such that they needed any
advice or support from any source to en-.
able them to liye in any more comfortable
way than at the present time. 1 refer to the
honest laborer not the foreign agitator.

Reply to az"

Mr.. EDIToR:-I have noticed an article
in your last issue, an article on the prohibit
ton question signed 'sE, " Of Rising Sun, in
which he seems to assume that those who
intend voting for Fisk & Brooks are merely
a set of political cranks and on a wild goose
chase to become national party and bring
about suppression of the liquor traffic for
beverage purposes. within the next thousand
years. Well, as he has said, we have had
temperance organizations in Cecil county for
the past fifty years, but the liquor traffic
went on, all the same, up to the year 1880
when the temperance element of the Re
publican and Democratic parties formed
themselves into prohibitory party for the
time being, and by the ballot, the only SER
sible way of suppressing the traffic, put an
emphatic veto on the licensing Of saloons in
the county. Still the liquor army of Cecil,
backed by the brewers and distllers of the
State, in 1886 made desperate assault ON
the prohibition fort. which they came near
capturing; but ballots were again successful,
not the temperance organizations, our friend
relies on. Oh no, the fact is the manufac-
turer of whiskey and beer and the saloon
keeper never cared two cents for temperance
societies or denunciations of the pulpit-it
is the ballot they fear, and are now thor
oughly alarmed, and their only hope lies
with the two old parties, one of which our
friend "E" is working for heart and soul, I
am informed, fighting shoulder to shoulder
with the brewer, distiller and saloon keeper,
sitting his convictions like thousands Of
others for partisanship. 1t seems strange,
even to advocates Of license, that long and
loud advocates of temperance and sobriety
should in crisis like the present give the
lie to their previous teaching and preach
ing, stife the voice of conscience and cast
the same ballot cast by the brewer and dis
tiller. "Oh consistency thou art jewel"
if not ieweler-Selah.

DudIey's Dynamite.

Tie Federal grand jury at Indian
apolis has the case of Treasurer Dud-
ley, of the national Republican COM
mittee, under consideration, and it is
quite probable that an indictment
will be found against him for his plot
to corrupt Indiana" fioaters in blocks of
five." A warrant was issued for his
arrest two days after the publication of
his now famous letter, but as he has
not returned to Indiana of course the
warrant has not been served. If indict-
ed by a United states grand jury,
staying away will not avail him un-
less he goes abroad, as the process of
the Federal courts can be served any
W here in the United States.
In view of his probable indictment,
Mr.. Dudley has decided to threaten a
little. He recently told Ex-senator
Mcdonald that he had some dynamite
in bis pocket ready for use in case it
was needed. If this means anything
it means that Mr.. Dudley proposes to
make reprisals in the Dtmocrtic camp
in case he is compelled to face trial
for his attempt to buy votes for the
Republicans.
Mr.. Dudley should be indicted and
tried for his offense. even if his pockets
are ntiett Will uyHaIutte +huHIcleuC TO
blow the Democratic party sky nigh.
The use of money to purcl. ase. fioa.ers"
will continue until it shall be made
dangerous. It is probable, as Mr.,
Dudley intimates i'm his threat, that
Democrats are equally guilty with
Republicans in this matter. This
should not induce the Federal grand
jury TO let up on Dudley. He should
be brought to trial for his crime against
free government. If he i'm revenge
turns the light on Democratic vote
buying. all the better. Both sides
will get some portion of their Just
deserts.
The one thing for the Federal grand
jury to consider is that vote-buying is
a crime and that III Mr.. Dudley en-
gagged in 1t he ought to he held TO ae-
count. 1t should deal with Mr.. Dud-
ley on the merits of his individual case
and let him explode his dynamite II
he wants to. The explosion, II any
occurs, will harm only few guilty

The Direct Tax Bill.

The bill returning to the States that
paid it the direct tax collected during
the war has passed the House by a
vote of 16S to 96. 1t appropriates near
1y $50 100000 for division among
thirty-eight States, four territories and
the District of Columbia in sums rang
ing from Washington Territoryis little
grab of 81 .26S up to New York's big
haul of S2,603. .91a. Missouri,s share
will be S761 .127, and would make big
retention of the State debt If could
be applied that way.
But the few survivors of those who
paid that $761, ,l27 in Missouri can post
pone for while their rejoicing over
restoration of their quotas, and the
State need not worry about the dispo-
siii IN of her share until she gets 1t.
Big as the brIbe is, the bill lacks "a
good deal of two-thirds majority in
the House, and will pass the Senate by
only a small majority. If Mr.. Cleve-
land vetoes it, its future enactment
will depend on the approval of the Re-
publican President and Congress.
Nobody questions the right of Com
gress to make restitution to taxpayers
of taxes wrongfully collected. Bur
nobody pretends that this $4,000, 900
was wrongfully collected, or that this
is bill restoring the money to those
who paid it over twenty-five years
ago. II is bill appropriating for un-
equal distribution among the States
