The country is slowly awakening to
the fact that there was something moro
in the position Of Grover Cleveland and
the democratic party than q merely
political measure. The people are
having time now to study the tariff
question, and the cry for tariff reform
still ring out clear and distinct above
the howl Of republican place-seekers,
above the yell ofrepublican ''free trade''
scarecrows, and above the disgusting
flap, flap, of the sanguine garment. On
the 18th inst. the Massachusetts, reform
league issued an address to tue people,
of which the following are the principal
points:
1.-THE defeat of the policy of tariff
reduction shows the need of further
enlightenment of the people in regard
to the real effects of the existing tariff.
The league will advocate free raw
material as the practical objective point
for future effort. Special efforts will
be made to show the farmers the falia-
cies by which they have been deceived.
Competent speakers have volunteered
their services and joint debates will be
arranged wherever possible. Congress
men will be invited to explain why
they have sacrificed the interest OF
New England to the greed of Penn
sylvania. Those of the manufacturers
who petitionec against free raw mate
rails will be given an opportunity to
defend their petition. The league is
non-partisan and asks the cooperation
of tariff reformers in both parties.
The welthy few who imagine they have
bought the right to fstten upon the
tariff without fear of futher molesta-
ton are reminded that the tariff ques-
tion can not be settled at all until it is
rightly settled"
The signers are Henry L. Pierce,
William Lloyd Garrison, Josiah Quincy
and John F. Andrews.

Newspaper Ethics.

A lawyer. when asked to plead a
cause, demands his fee before he opens
his persuasive mouth. You may hang
and 60 to the evil one before he will
give you his legal service gratis. If
one desires to know what investments
are good and likely to be profitable, the
broker who advises him is quite sure
to charge commission for making the
purchase. Why, then, should an editor
be expected to advocate all sorts of
public pojects pro bono publico? The
contractors for improvements make
money out of them. Why should they

that the cry Is unjust, but we do ask
where the difference is between that
which the lawyer is praised for doing
and that FOR which the editor is de-
nounced. The man from whom the
lawyer asks fee proceeds to draw his

asks pay cries ssblackmail." Yet both

The Boy For Business.

"What kind Of a boy does business
man want" repeated shrewd practical
man of many concerns, the other day.
"Well I will tell you. In the first place,
he wants boy who doesn't know too
much. Business men generally like to
run their own business, and prefer some
onelwho will listen to their way, rather
than try to teach them new kinks;
secondly, they want prompt boy-one
who understands seven O'Clock as ex-
actly seven, not ten minutes past; third,
an Industrious boy, who is not afraid
to put in little extra work in case of
need; fourth, an honest boy-honest in
his service, as well as in the matter of
dollars and cents; and fifth, a good-na-
tured boy, who will keep his temper
even if his employer looses his own, now
and then!''
"But you haven't said a word about
his being smartl" was suggested.
"Well, to tell the TRUTH was the
rather hesi:ating answer. chats about
tho last thing we worry over. The fact
IS, if boy is modest, prompt, pleasant,
industrious, and honest, he's about as
smart as we care about generally-and
that's fact"
So you see how it is, boys; and per-
haps some of you if not so brilliant,
may take courage and cultivate these
qualities which shall make you accept
able to business men, though you may
never shine in tho world of letters

City Election.

The republicans, or select few of
them, have called a convention to meet
on the night of the 80 of March-three
days before the election of the city
Officers-to nominate republican city
ticket. This they of course have a
perfect right to do; that is, the party
cannot be expected to do otherwise.
But we believe it an unwise thing to
permit half dozen or less of the
chronic politicians of any party to ar
range ticket, let it be city or county.
In Great Bend we need men in office
for their qualifications, not because of
their political affiliations or pledges;
and from the whisperings Of the would
be managers in the controlling party in
the city, from the back room confabs
and earnest jesticulations, from the
apparent ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of the
republican stalWarts when approached
for their opinion as to who will be the
best men for city officers, we feel war
ranted in warning the voters of the city
that the ticket to be nominated at the
republican convention on the night Of
the 3Oth-almost on the eve of election
will be known and named by q ''select
few" if it is not already named.
We do not say but what they may
select good men; but from the manner Of
selection and the object in view-i. e.;
political aggrandizement-it is hardly
to be supposed that the interests of the
people and welfare of the city are to be
taken into consideration.

SENATOR PLUMB is getting hot shot
poured at him from every quarter for
his action on the Oklahoma bill. We
have thought Senator Plumb was doing
very we'll, for republican, but his last
break has a. terribly suspicious look
about it. However, Kansas will not
be greatly effected one way or another
by the Oklahoma matter, and our
people need loose no sleep over it.
