That "Good Lord, Good Devll' pa.
per. the POST Dispatch, of last Sunday
8 ,eks to injure Mr.. Clariy by predict
ing his defeat by Mr.. Kinsey. What.
ever may be the injury to Mr.. CIardy
in other parts of tie district by such
a course it will have no such effect in
Iron county, for the reason that it has
not subscriber in the county. Tie
people of Southeast Missouri, long
since, became disguised with an organ
which supplemented its record as the
inciter to the muraer of Col. Slayback
by consistent attempts to assassinate
the nominees of the party to which it
processes to adhere. That paper assert
ed that Graniteville. in this county,
would give large majority against
Clardy and for Kinsey. Two years ago
that place gave the former only thirty
four votes; the balance went to Ratch-
ford and Ledergerber. Now the Dem
ocratic club at that place numbers one
hundred and thirty every man of whom
will vote for Clardy. While, on the
other hand, the Republican club num-
hers forty-five, and large proportion
of them are un-naturalized foreigners.
1t is safe to judge the balance of the
article by that which refers to Iron
county. And Iron county's majority
will be one hundred and fifty greater
for Clardy than it was two years since.

We copy the following from the
Pennington NeUs, for the edifcation
of the Independents (who seem never
so happy as when slandering and ly-
ing about their neighbors) and the en-
lightenment of the people generally:
PILOT KNOB, Mo-, Oct. 2, 1888.
Editor Ne,cs-The first issue of the new
paper should have appeared week or two
ago. Everything was in waiting but the
paper did not appear. If the new paper
should be started by the parties intending to
start it, the Independents of Iron county will
not support il, because the new enterprise is
not in the interest of the people of Iron
county. 1t was announced that the type
foundry was awaiting orders to ship the type
and press, and now comes the report that
the foundry can not fill the order for three
or four weeks, which shows a worm in the
bud, ere it bloomed. The Independents Of
Iron county will not support such a move
ment, therefore its further effort is useless,
party. The place is still open to one that
can run an independent paper, not in the
interest of one or two but for all alike
partisan to none but justice to all.
ONE THAT KNOWS.
The above is plain. There is no doubt as
to what it means. That the intention of the
Iron county ringsters was to dilly daily along
until after the election is as plain as the nose
on mans face. Our readers in Iron as well
as in st. Francois county know that we
| cautioned them on this point some time ago.
We are satisfied that there is ring with
general headquarters at Jefferson City, with
| local organizations at each county seat, but
all the ringsters are not officers. We were
satisfied from the conduct of the Ironton
| REGISTER that there was aworm in the bud,
not so much by what the REGISTER said as
by what it did not say. The ringsters are
| not fools, and are always on the alert to get
| their men in, as defeat may mean the pen
itsntiary.
The above, If it means anything, says
in effect that new paper could not be
started here because all the type foun-
dries in the United States were SUBJ
sidized or bull-dozed by the'ringsters."
AS there are several scores of these
establishments in America, the
doodle" and influence Of the REGIS
TER and It's fellow conspirators must
cover a good deal of space! We regret
we did not know earlier just how much
could be done in this line by concerted
effort: certainly, with such unlimited
power. person who would for twenty
years run a little one-hoss county pa
per, when he might as well be debating
the fate of the world from the tripod of
the New York Herald, or the World,
or the st. Louis Republic, or all of
them at one and the same time-such
an individual were q bigger fool than
the traditional colt said to have been
owned by man named Thompson.
Seriously, we reproduce the Pilot
Knob letter and Pigg's comments to
show to what extent a liar can go. and
at the same time to prove how impos-
sible it is for US to return to the writer's
the compliment they pay the ring
sters:" viz, that they "are not FOOLS"

How applicable this is to all sections
Of the country. Protection to Ameri-
can industry as it is called. has built
up few private fortunes, but the great
mass Of workers. who year after year
have been told that the system was
especially for their benefit, have grown
old and poor in their meagerly remun-
Grated employment. This one sided
system, which has increased the ex-
pense of every household by taxing
every article of daily use, has not even
furnished the hard-working farmers
with profita BILE home market for their
products. A limited favored class has
reaped all the advantages.

The Few That Get The Benefit.

Since the question of tariff reform
came up for discussion the fact that
the present war-tariff benefits favor
ed few at tie expense of the great
majority has often been presented to
public attention. A better illustration
of this can uot be given than is fur
nished by the Northumberland County
(Pa) Democrat of last week:
Some twenty odd years ago gentleman
by the name of Hummel left Dry Valley
Furnace, in Union county, and took up his
abode in one of the Western States. A short
time ago he visited Dry Valley for the pur-
pose of meeting old friends and renewing
acquaintances of by-gone days. Those that
were left were glad to see him, of course,
and gathered around to inquire of his finan-
cial luck in his new home, which he reported
as good. Finally the follwing colloquy be-
tween Mr.. Hummel and those standing
around was had:
Mr.. Hummel-"How is my old friend, DIR.
Rock, getting along; he purchased an inter.
est in this furnace about the time l left
here"
well; he owns two or three farms around
here; owns whole lot of houses, In fact,
owns pretty near the whole village"
Mr.. Hummel-"He has done well; what
has been the cause of the Dr's great finan-
cial prosperity."
A Resident-"P Protection protection to
American industry"
Mr.. Hummel-sI suppose YOU fellows who
have been working for the DR.. all these years
under this protective tariff are Just as snug
ly fixed as he is-that is you have your share
of farms and houses, top
[fhis question was not answered.
Mr.. Hummel-'sI am just rs much of Re-
publican as eyer was, but let me say to you,
my friends, that the kind of protection un-
der which the DIR. has grown rich and you
men have grown old and poor is going to
