THE IOWA FARMERS, TOO.

Taking it all around, matters do look
decidedly blue for our high tariff Re-
publican friends. The Minnesota farm
erS long ago gave 1t to be distinctly
understood that they wanted no more
legalized robbery in theirs, and are pro-
ceeding TO back up their assertions in u
way that must make the Republican
managers very nervous indeed. Now
come the Iowa farmers, too, with more
to the same effect. They have discov-
cred that i'll their adherence to Repub
licaniSm they have been worShiping
false idols, and, in the light of the truth
that has been revealed to them, are
preparing TO shatter every one OF
them. The declaration of Repub
lican principles enunciated by Mr..
BLAINE, who certainly can speak
with authority, has not served
i'll the least to win them back to their
allegiance. 1t has rather served to con-
firm them in their new-found devotion
to the right. They have paid tribute as
long as they intend to, and are now
ready to join their Minnesota brethren
i'll fighting the battle of the people
against the mOnOpOlist to whom the Re-
publican party stands ready, as ever. to
extend its protection. Our Republican
friends are slow to awaken to the fact
that the great West, without distinction
of party, is not going to be content with
demanding justice. 1t intends to COM
pei it.
But after another Democratic victory,
which is now practically assured, they
may realize that government of the
many for the benefit of favored few is
not the kind of doctrine that can find
permanent lodgment in the minds of
in telligent Americans.

MIRAGE.

Clear shining through the swimming air.
Across stretch of summer seas,
Far, lofty peaks gleam white and fair,
The nights of the Hesperides.
o far-off peaks! o happy isles!
sail and sail and long for you.
And still tn enticing vision smiles
TO lure me o'er the waters blue.
Below those fair and cleaning nights,
Ne'er shrouded DER by drifting SHOWS,
Lie gardens filled with rare delights,
And there the golden apple grows.
I sail and sail and sail and long for you,
But never come to those fair isles;
Still stretches wide the bOundless blue,
Forever still the scene beguiles.
Unclimbed those lofty mountain nights,
Far off beyond the smiling seas,
Unreaehed that garden of delights,
Untrodden the Hesperides.

THE PRESIDENTS SYMPATHY.
1t Is Enlisted for the Condition OF
Pennsylvania Miners.

Scranton, Pa, Special: Daniel j.
Campbell, of Scranton, master workman
OF District Assembly No. 16, Knights Of
Labor, has returned from Washington,
where he was summoned to testify be-
fore the congressional committee inves-
tlgating the strikes. In an interview
thls afternoon he spoke of call he
made On President Cleveland. 81 called
on the president" said Mr.. Campbell,
TO ascertain if it lay in his power to
alleylate the condition of affairs III the
Lehgh coal fields and to prevent the
recurrence OF such sad scenes in the
future. | thought that perhaps it might
be possible for him to do something
towards securing the happiness of all
the people in the land, either by special
recommendation to congress or by
suggesting something feasible in the
line OF craftsmanship that would result
in wholesome laws, or at least have
wholesome effect OH public opinion.
president Cleyeland'S kindness and
courtesy made a deep impression on
me. L found him keenly alive to the
interest of the WOrkingmen of the coal
fields, and he entered freely into dis
cussion of the situation. | said l called
on him as citizen to ascertain if he
knew of anything that could be done for
the welfare of the masses in the anthra-
cite region. There was no politics in
our conversation. / did not suggest any
special way in which the president
might interest himself effectually in be-
half OF the miners. laid the matter
before him as it concerned the welfare
OF the people of the country.
81 spoke of the encrOaOhment of
monopolies upon popular rights, and L
said l believed the remedy for all eX-
listing wrongs lay in the proper applica-
ton of true political economy and wise,
courageous craftsmanship. | ventured
to say that l thought him equal to the
emergency and upon that high ground
placed the entire subject.
He listened very attentively, noted
each point eagerly and manifested a
warm interest in the whole matter. l
told him what believe to be true, that
the time has come when the country
must pay more attention than hereto
fore to the relations of capital and labor.
After our first interview the president
was kind enough to invite me to a sec
ond interview on the same subject, at
which he asked many questions as to
the condition of the WOrkingmen of the
Pennsylvania anthracite regions and
the causes leading to the frequent dis
agreements between employers and EN-
plOyed) In all that was said the presi-
dent showed the heartiest possible in
tereSt in the welfare of the masses, and
am sure that he sympathizes keeniy
with the men,"

Mt. VERNON, ILL.,, Feb. 21.-A frost
covered the ground this morning, and
the frozen mud indicated a chilly
night that greeted the homeless people,
but shelter was afforded all and there
was no suffering. Many farmers came
in early with wagons and assisted in
moving what was left of the furniture
to places of safety. A half dozen of the
merchants propped up their buildings
and partially covered or removed their
stock, employing about 100 men.
are at work arranging temporary
shelter in half-destrOyed buildings.
The citizens committee are in continual
session, and are receiving hourly con-
tributions. They have already re-
ceiVed about $4,000 in cash and guam
tity of provisions. The physicians and
surgeons say that several of their most
desperate cases are rapidly sinking.
Experiences are strange and almost in
credible. Many were well sheltered
from the storm at one moment and next
stood in ruins uninjured. Almost all
persons who were on the streets at the
tlIne OI tHe STORM were either Killed or
wounded. In the home of 4. r. Cox were
eight persons in the Sitting-room when
the servant ran into the room with the
fright of the storm. the family scarcely
started to leave when the house was
lifted over them and jammed back on to
them, but in some manner the pieces
did not strike any one but came down
on the lounge and organ, around which
the children were playing. Two
crOuched by the organ and crawled out
unharmed. Mr.. Cox found himself in
the middle of a yard bewildered.
Around him was chaos and for time
he could not locate himself, for the land
marks were all gone. Quiet returned
aud he heard the calls of his family and
went to them. He had been carried by
the wind over two fences and beyond
the place where once house had stood.
