During the discussion Of the tariff
question in the senate a few days ago
Senator Vest took occasion to call the
Republican senators to account for
taking so much time in bringing for.
ward their promised tariff bill. In
reply Senator Sherman "pulled down
the Vest" as follows: It did net lie in
the mouth of the Democrats to ar.
raign the Republicans for delay. For
fourteen out of sixteen years the
Democrats have had a majority in the
house of representatives and have
never passed tariff bill. Now, with
the impulse of the presidents mes
sage, they have been engaged for sew
eral months in the preparation of a
crude bill to destroy. American indus
tries, and they assumed to complain
of the Republicans because they took
sixty days to prepare a bin which viii
be complete revision of the tariff,
and which will reduce the surplus
without destroying the industries of
the country. ~~~x,. ~q.E se>, x~rs- -

Remembered BY a Visitor,

j. H. Turner, the veteran editor of
the Carroll Record, of Carrollton,
Missouri, and for fifteen years CORES
ponding secretary of the Missouri
Press Association, recently passed
over the two main lines of the Mani
toba road with his estimable wife.
Mr.. Turner combined business with
pleasure, by arranging to have the en-
tire Missouri Press Association make
the same trip next year; he also used
his note book freely, and readers of
the Record are now being enlightened
regarding many of the attractions
and advantages of this part of the
great Northwest. In the issue of the
Record of Sept. 18th we find, among
other interesting paragraphs, the fol.
lowing concerning our own highly ia.
vored locality.
"Near Tintah we pass big stock
farm of 5000 acres, with its three
great stock barns several hundred feet
long, its grainaries, Its farm houses
and out buildings. Here they raise
oats enough to require five binders at
work on them the day we were there.
AS we near Morris, where we stop
for dinner, the great stock farms APP
pear more frequently, and two, three
and four big barns on farm are not
uncommon. The wheat fields are of
tener crowded out by oats and hay,
although there is still large area
sown In wheat. The land is more
rolling and apparently richer. enter
prising farmers have more frequently
set out groves of trees around the
home place, and 1t looks more and
more as Ii they had come to stay.
Here we strike again the park region
of Minnesota, and beautiful little
lakes filled with water and wild ducks
dot the landscape as we fly along to-
ward Minneapolis. Near Morris we
pass the big farm of the Minnesota
Agricultural Co. comprising several
thousand acres Of excellent land.
Their eight great barns several hun
dred feet long, all the other out build
ings necessary to carry on the BUSH
ness, the tenant houses and the great
three-story residence OF the superin-
tendent, make the place look like a
village In the distance, and there are
other farms In the vicinity nearly as
large. We met on the cars here Mr..
E. w. Randall, former editor of the
republican paper at Morris, who
knows every body and is well posted
in the prosperity aud possibilities of
Stevens county as well as of Swift
and Kandiyohi counties, through
which we are passing"

Mr.. William Thomas, Jr. consul to
Sweden under Lincoln and minister
to the same country under Arthur,
has been stumping Maine and will
stump Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michi-
gan, New York and possibly Illinois.
Speaking about the result in Maine,
he said that he considered 1t to be q
great victory for the Republicans. he
had talked, he said, with excellent
political authorities from New York,
and bssing his judgment on what
they had told him, he felt confident
that Cleveland would be showed UNI
der in the Empire State by $1,000
votes.

GIVE THE FARMERS Il SHOW.


The TRIBUNE heartily endorses the
following well-timed article from the
st. Paul Daily News: 80
II the spectators will give the
farmers fair show this fall there is
no reason why they should not have
q tip-top price for their wheat. Sta
tistlcs from Europe indicate that the
wheat demand on the continent as
well as in Great Britain will be strong
1t Is claimed that owing to the bad
crops In England she will be obliged
to import at least ITO, 000,O 900 bushels;
France, though great wbeat-pro-
ducing country, will need 5000 900
bushels from the outside, while
Germany and some OF the lesser
nations will be obliged to place larger
orders than usual.
The crop of this great Northwest
may not be so large as it has been in
former years, but there Is no good
reason why the farmers this year
should not have handsome price.
Give the farmers fair show. Don't
agitate and initiate and depress and
iuctuate the market by turns, but
give US q good, steady, gradually in
creasing price for wheat. The farm
ers are suffering enough now from
the heavy burdens of taxation.
Give them an old-fashioned, liberal
price for their wheat. They deserve
1t; they have had little or nothing for
their labor for number of years;
now let them be helped. IF the price
goes up to 81, good If to $1.25 better;
If it can reach $1.40 or $3.50, still bet
ter. No danger of it going too high.
Give the farmers fair show.

The better acquainted we become
with Hon. 8. G. Comstock, our scandi-
date for congress, and the more we
learn of him, the more firmly are we
convinced that the Republican con-
vention acted wisely when it nomina-
ted him. He is a man who makes
friends wherever he goes, while those
who have known him longest and best
are the most enthusiastic in praise of
him. No one can converse with him
five minutes without being Convinced
that he is a man of brains. He uses
no superfuous language, but speaks
directly to the point, producing argu-
ments instead of INDUCING in mean
ingless elequence, like SO many Of our
public speakers. Mr.. C. is conserv-
tive man. but possesses a liberal
share of independence which enables
him to think for himself and to lead
rather than be led. He win ably fill
the position now occupied by Hon.
Knute Nelson. Stevens county will
give him large vote. That he will
be elected by large majority no sane
man in the district has the least doubt.

Minneapolis Tribune: A New York
reporter who recently made a tour
through the cheap shops Of that city
discovered that there are hundred Of
articles that can be bought for cent
besides postage stamps. He enumer-
ated pins, pencils,' shoestrings, collar
buttons, cigarettes, mirrors, knives
forks, clothes pins, etc. But just
think how the prices of those articles
would drop il the robber tariff were
taken off! The government would
have to coin half or quarter-cent to
accommodate the buyer and seller In
their dealings. "Down with the

CRAwFIsH PROCESS.

The Republican party, of Minnesota
in its late platform, reeds two steps
from its position on the saloon ques-
ton in 1886 and then has the gall to
say, mo backward steps shall be TAX
en- in the efforts to secure the most
'effectual control of the liquor traffic."
Two years ago the party declared
In favor of thigh license, local option
and rigid enforcement Of existing
laws" H
This year not word is said In ia
vor Of local option, though, as is well
known, strenuous effort was made
by the anti-saloon faction for q dec
laration in favor of county local OPP
ton. In spite of the Herculean ef-
forts Of Albert. Griffin, Genl. Nettle-
ton, DR.. Carroll and their followers
the G. 0. P. has been progressing
backward in about the same ratio for
several years past. In 1882 the Re.
publican party Of this state declared
in favor of submitting a prohibitory
amendment to vote Of the people
when petitioned for by any consider
able number Of votes, A pledge which
of course is unredeemed. In New
York also the Republican party pro.
poses to ride into power on its at
tempted high license $3.50 legIslatlon.
But it says not word about the pro.
hibitory amendment pending its
second passage In the legislation be.
fore going to vote Of the people.
Neither does it renew this year Its
often violated pledge of local option.
The truth is, and anyone can see II
who will open his eyes, that the
liquor fraternity have given thell
consent to the high license policy fol
they see in it the only remaining
barrier against prohibition.
The Republican party has built this
barrier, and pointing with pride to ita
workmanship, calls upon everybody
to help hold it up against the loyal
champions of the home who would
charge upon the saloon and wipe II
forever from the face of the earth.

AUTHORITATIVE STATEMENT.

1--WE are not working along the
temperance line this fall" Matthew
8. Quay, Chairman Republican
National Convention.
Well from the size of the drink bill
at the Chicago Convention we hardly
supposed you were.
The Anti-Saloon committee has no
recognition at Republican head quar-
tiers. Not SO the "Antl Saloon" Re-
publicans. They have representative
at the National headquarters in the
person of l.. w. Habercorn, who has
been, and presumably is yet, a prom
inent organizer of personal liberty
leagues. That sentence in the g. o.
P. platform reaffirming the devotion
of the party to the personal rights
and liberties of the citizens In all the
states" meant something more than
sympathy" t
Sympathy is good enough for tenn
perance fanatics, but the saloon de-
mands, and gets, the fat ears of party
recognition.

THE PIRATE or THE WORLD


The New York Sun, Democratic:
Great Britain has ruined every coun-
try In the world which she has per-
suaded or forced into free trade. Her
commercial treaties, cozened out OF
Portugal, Spain and Turkey, destroy
ed the industries of each of these
countries and made them poor. Her
cheap goods crushed out the ancient
household manufactures ofthe Indian
empire, which she overran, and left
millions of the conquered people with
the bare subsistence ofrice and water.
A British army of invasion force
China to admit into her territory the
opium which the British merchant
could market only IN the empire, and
forced the entry through, the custom
houses of China Of British merchan-
disc at the destructive duty Of 2 per
cent nd velorem. u / ~ r - -
It was the massacre of the industry
Of q magnificent and venerable en-
pire, and Of countless thousands of
poor Chinese men, women and child
rem. These cheap goods pirates in
like manner covered Japan with the
guns of their war ships and compelled
her to receive the fimsy products of
Birmingham, Manchester and Shelf
field at the uniform duty of per cent
ad valorem. That is free trade, and
1t is strang1ing the life out of help
less Japan.
The experience of Ireland Ii too
well known to need mention here.
England,in indeed, Is the commercial
pirate Of the world. She is now strain
ing her utmost to rob the Uaited
States ofindustries and getscontrol OF
our market. IT she succeeds, every
working man and working women In
this country will be broughtlto COM
parative poverty. You can't help
losing the high wages you now re-
ceive. IF you retain any work at all
against the, competition of the pauper
paid labor Of England, you will be
compelled by that competition to ac-
cept as wages precisely that pauper
pay.
