The trouble with the News editor is
that he not only appears to be ready
and ANXIOUS to follow off the bob-tailet
dog OF free trade, but he is willing to
travel in the wake of half Il dozen other
un-American CANNES with decapitated
appendages. He makes the discovery
this week that the existence ofmonopoI
lies, trusts and other combinations Of
capital are due to the protective system,
Until the News editor Tan guarantee
the farmer against Il reduction in tile
price of wheat equal to the reduction
that free trade would cause in the price
of labor and all other commodities;
until he can prove that the law o
supply and demand is - Commercial
myth; until he can demonstrate thai
water will not seek and finally attain
its own level, he is not qualified as al
expert advocate of Golden club ideas
and English supremacy.

English supremacy.

The New York Herald has learned,
leading editorial on the wheat produce
ing regions of the world, and mentions
India and Montana-but don't mention
Dakota. What kind of an editor is
that?-Fargo Argus
Well, in the first place, he is Il free
trade editor,-quite English, you know.
In the second place, he knows nothing
of the of America. To his
mind, the United States is still a British
colony, subject to and under control OF
the British parliament and the Golden
club. Thirdly, he belongs TO the Roger
g. Mills school of statesmen who wants
to remove the tariff on seamless hose,
''because the United States is not en-.
gagged in the manufacture Of these arti.
cles." New Jersey alone manufactures
u million dollars worth of seamless hose
annually. Mr.. Mills was not aware Of
this fact when the Democracy made
him its tariff leader. And the Herald
editor has yet to learn that Dakota raised
100000 bushels of wheat last year
There Is great need of aschool for tariff
tinkers in this country.

GROVER CLEvELAND's tariff message

GROVER CLEvELAND's tariff message is
a first cousin TO his civil service letter to
George William Curtiss. The message
declared Tor universal free trade, but
the Mills tariff bill, which is an admins
tration measure, provides for free trade
only in the north and gives protection
to the south. Cleyeland's letter to Cur
tiss declared that competent officials
should not be disturbed, but the ink
was not dry upon the letter when the
work Of removing Republicans from
Office was commenced, and was con-
tinued until 80 per cent of them have
been retired to private life. Grover
Cleveland's administration has been
one of false pretense from the begin.
ming and will continue so to the end,

A A CONFESSION.
New York Will Quit Throwing
Stones at Dakota.

SSASS 2
New York Tribune.
Dakota is entitled to shy a stone at US
in a friendly way, for New York and the
East generally have been shying stones
at Dakota for a long time. We have
been so much in the habit of thinking
Of that great Territory as the home Of
the blizzard and the cold snap, that we
have not realized that these were the
frigid exceptions that proved the rule Of
her equally salubrious and impartial
climate. New orkers would probably
he surprised to be told that a large part
of the East has q worse climate than
Dakota, but an official publication re.
Gently compiled by the commissioner Of
immigration there demonstrates it by
the remorselcss statistics of the signal
service. He admits that during the
winter months the thermometer some.
times registers considerable GOODNESS"
but aside from this he makes no con.
c%essions. The isothermal line of 40o-
500 mean annual temperature which
scofters have represented as running in
the most obliging manner through any
region where there is a good deal of
land to sell, passes through the wheat
countries of Russia, Austria and France,
and, in the United States, goes westward
through Harrisburg, Cleveland and Chi
cago, turns northward to St. Paul, and
then passes westward even north of the
northern boundry line of Dakota and
Montana. The air is &C dry that, it is
claimed, it never chills as the damp at
mosphere of the Atlantic States does /,
and, taking the average, the range is
not 80 low as is commonly supposed.
The mean annual temperature in Da-
kota, derived from observations during
fifteen years, was 41.50; in Minnesota
during one year it was 1872, and in
New Hampshire 26.50. In Dakota the
mean average Tor three winter months
during a long period of years was 11.80.
The average temperature for the six
months beginning with October and Ell.
ding with March, during fifteen years
past, has been 21.S0. Much less snow
falls in Dakota, on the average, than ir
New York. Last winter there was little
more than half as much as in Vermont,
and there seems to be some disposition
to complain that there is hardly enough
for sleigh-riding. In 1856 Dakota hat
GO cloudy days to 153 in this state, 12t
clear days to Is that we enjoyed, ant
LIS fair days to 1875 for US. The aver
age annual death.rate Is only one in 166
while the average for the VIII ole United
States is nearly three times as great.
All this being true, we must admi
that we have grossly misconc eived tn,
climate of Dakota. Our time has com,
to be humble. With all the business O
this great city paralyzed, cut off for
time from all communication with tn
rest OF the country, and threatened will
q famine, New-York Is in no position t
throw any more stones at Dakota be
cause some hundreds of people persisted
in a storm of the sort which most of III
prudently preferred to watch from in
side %brownstone fronts. If Dakota WI

clothes, W will accept them, and meek
ly put them where they will do tn,

IRELAND AND ENGLAND.

After listening to the very interest.
ing and instructive address Of Father
Mclnerney at the court house last Sat.
urday evening, this question has been
uppermost in our mind: allow can
any freshman who heard that lecture
ever vote the Democratic ticket and
thus assist in fastening English CONNER
cial supremacy upon America?
Every sentence ofthe learned gentle.
mans remarks was an argument against
the tyranny Of English laws and the
blightipg effects Of English free trade.
Although he did not mention the name
of either Of the great political parties of
this country, yet the central thought
and the spirit and tenor of his eloquent
discourse stood out like a monument to
the victories which thousands of Irish
Americans aided in winning over the
hosts of the Democratic rebellion of
l861-65.
Whose gold was at the disposal of, and
whose sympathies were with, the Demo
cratic south in its war for the perpetua'
ton of slavery?
England's.
Whose laws are being framed with
the single purpose of expressing the
poor people of Ireland?
England's.
10 whom would the greatest benefit
como if this country should adopt free
trade?
To England.
What class of workingmen in this
country would receive the gre Attest in
jury from the effects Of free trade?
The Irish.Americans, as they COM
prise the largest portion Of the laborers
now engaged in the institutions thai
would be forced TO reduce the wages o.
their employees if protection is abolished
And so on through the history Of
England and Ireland for hundreds o.
years. The English have meyer ceased
to punish the Irish q c for the victor
les of Hugh O'Neill. Wherever the
Irishman has gone to escape persecu
ton, he has been followed by some
species of English tyranny. Is it strange,
then. that a country dealing in oppres
sion as q business, should reach owe
the waters to America and join issues
with Il political party that has sought tt
fasten slavery upon it's own country
Is it strange that we find this politica
party engaged. IN q scheme which, j
successful, will repay its old ally-Ene
landau hundred fold for her sympa
thy and her gold?
These are the thoughts hat come t
the patriotic mind when listening t
fthe remarks of the liberty-loving Irish
man who spoke at the court house las
Saturday evening. A report of Fathe
McJnerney's lecture will DO found il
| this issue.
