1T is not good way to meet the argu-
ments advanced by Mr.. johnson in favor
of the continuance of the present tariff,
to pretend they are weak or to charge
Mr.. johnson with incincerity or treach-
cry. He is man of strong convictions
and speaks his mind with less fear of the
consequences than do most men. His
tariff article is faulty and is really an ar
gument in favor of preconceived notions.
Still it is far more able than Sherman's
speech and Mr.. johnson believes every
word he says.
When an attempt was made in 1886 by
a German paper at Madison to drive him
off the democratic state ticket because OF
temperance proclivities, he fearlessly an
nounced that no threats could induce
him to change one jot from the principles
by which he had guided his life and that
the prospect of Office could not induce
him to abandon his convictions, but ex-
pressed willingness to quit the ticket #
the committee thought it best. Such
man is not apt to form opinions hastily
nor to abandon them without good reas-
on shown.
Mr.. johnson is not in accord with his
countrymen on tbs tariff question. 1t is
highly probable his opinions have been
biased by his business, as our opinions
are always influenced by self interest
But his paper is a manly and candid dis
cussion of the question and whoever
reads it with care must admit it is a
strong presentation of that side. His ar
guments should be met with the same
courtesy with which they are presented
and certainly can be refuted without hav-
ing recourse to personalities or ungener-
Gus hints of bad motive.

FoR some time the doleful VOICE Of the

For some time the doleful voice of the
supplanted Q. S. officer has not been
heard in the land, and people were on the
verge of believing that, like the song OF
the dying swan, the sorrowing notes of
the dismissed official had existence only
in mythical tradition. But just in the
"nick of time" to prevent this skepticism,
rises the voice OF Law Clerk LIE Barnes
in tuneful lamentation that he is driven
from the public crib, and republican pa
pers blossom In the words of sorrow
wrung from LIE Barnes and demonstrate
clearly that the administration would
have destroyed this country some time
ago had not LIE Barnes's continuance in
Office saved things. But oh, the heavy
thoughtp Lie Barnes is there no longer.
No more will he write portions of Cleve-
lands message or defend the interior de-
partment against the assaults Of Dorsey.
The western lands are given over to the
billiards which sweep down from the re-
gions of the undiscovered North Pole and
there is no LIE Barnes in the interior de
partment to raise his hand to stop the
progress of the cold wave. The country
had better shut up shop. It will not
take many moro feathers to break the
camel's back. The people should be pre-
pared for the wurgt.

A CONGRESSMAN has introduced bill
In the house to reduce the surplus by
paying bounty of 25c on every bushel
OF wheat exported fIom this country.
This Will be big thing for the shipper
but the farmer will get but slight por-
ton OF the 25c per bushel,--just about
as much as the laborer does of the adj
vanced price on protected goods. But if
we must have protection it is just as well
to have it impartially distributed. The
newspapers should now ask bounty up
on every paper printed. 1t would in
crease their circulation, make them
cheaper to subscribers and be OF great
benefit to advertisers. Let's have a
bounty,

HE failure Of the Ozaukee County
Bank at Port Washington, is terrible
bloDto many farmers and poor people
woo had their little savings deposited in
the bank. The failure is for $4,000 and
the proprietor of the bank is supposed to
have skipped. The failure has caused
Ed. Blake to make an assignment. A
A large number of laborers had their lit
tie savings In the bank and all is swept
away. Something like the Chinese meth
Cd should be adopted as mode of pun
ishment for Vail, the proprietor of the
bank. His head ought to be given to the
poor people whose money he has squan-
dered.
