They have an idea that the Farmers
Alliance Is not in sympathy with the Re-
publican economic policy and means
mischief. The deliverances OF self-seek-
ing politicians who have connected them
selves with the Alliance are accepted as
the voice of the whole farming popula-
ton. These Western men In Congress
are too easily alarmed. The farmers are
not moving against protection nor Is
there cause for apprchending such a
bundcr. They have knowledge OF the
benefits of the protective system. What
the agricultural millions have demanded
OF Congress is an increase of the volume
of currency, and Congress has responded
with the silver-nOte law; antitrust leg
islation, which has been accomplished;
national announcement OF ocean trans
portation, and the Senate has done It's
duty i'm this respect; n state rights law,
and the Wilson bill has been enacted.
These are some Of the measures tho
farmers have favored. There has been a
clamor here and there for land loan
scheme and national warehouse
scheme, but this does not embody tho
sentiment OF the farming community any
more than resolution OF the Henry
George club would indicate that the en-
tire population of Cincinnati advocated
the single tax.
No. the farmers are not proposing to
rip everything TO pieces. So far as the
tariff is concerned aside from the con-
tinuous yelling of free traders, which
may have some effect but probably has
none, not sign appears that should
raise fear about the attitude OF the
rural Republican voters. They are re-
visionists and at the same time protcc-
tonists.
THIS may be said of the great majority
of the intelligent masses throughout the
country. Protection was never strong
er principle, more popular doctrine,
than IL is to-day. The last Presidential
election was won upon this issue; Re-
publican Congress was elected upon IL.
The Mckinley revision bilL preserving
protection for all competing articles, is
indorsed by the Republican party. There
has been no backing down from the
platform of lsss; there must be mono II
we expect victory in the future. a re-
treat would end in a rout. The party
must hold its place boldly upon the
broad and sound and solid platform OF
the protective system or go to certain de-
feat in 1892. -CMcinndti IimCs-Stdr.

WHERE DOES ARTHUR sTANDe
Mr.. Powsicrly Calls ON the Head of the
Engineers tn Define His Position.

Powderly has written the following
letter 10 Mr.. Arthur, Grand Chief Engin-
ecr of the Brotherhood OF Locomotive
Engineers:
There il at present a strike in progress on
the New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad In this strike Is involved u prin-
ciple which you cannot afford 10 ignore, aud
the prin ciple Is that OF fair play. Many OF
the men on strike are firemen and belong
not only 10 the knights of Labor but 10 the
brotherhood OF Locomotive Firemen.' They
are manfully contending for the righA t0
maintain thoir organization. They are
now ut a standstill. and in some In
stances their places are being filed
by members OF the Brotherhood
OF Locomotive Engineers, who have
stepped down from the footboard to pick up
the shoyels which were STOPPED by the fire.
men. Are you willing that this should con-
tinue? Are we 20 understand that this ac-
ton is To receive the sanction of the organ
ization you represent. The Knights of La
Dor desire 10 know where you stand on this
question, for you are authorized 10 voice
the sentiments Of your order. The MEM
bers OF the various brotherhoods Of railway
employees are DESTROYS OF knowing where
you stand, for on your answer and we de-
sire that it be public one, depends the
future OF your association.
We desire To know where to place IT, Shall
IL BE- classod among the organizations OF in
dustry or among the allies OF capitaII III
your members continue 10 do the work OF
firemen we shall know that it l. with your
consent. and the future Will be plain before
us. We do not ask for your official sane
ton OF the strilIe; we only ask for fair
treatment at your hands, and that we have
right To expect. The man who takes
the place OF another in this contest Is
untrue To the cause OF organized labor.
The organization which approves of such
conduct must be regarded in the same light.
and We want TO know from your own lips
where to assign the Brotherhood OF Locomo-
tive Engineers in the roster OF organizations.
We have asked OF other organizations OF
railway employees to take sides with us.
They are responding nobly, and the future
of labor seems 10 indicate that between us
all there Is a far better understanding than
ever before. but your voice must be heard
either on the side OF the railway or the men.
Which will IL be? I remain. very respect
fully, yours,

Nh Light from That Text.

II is not always safe at critical mo-
ments in ones life to rely upon receiv-
ing guidance from the passage OF
Scripture which the eve may fall upon.
An earnest Christian laymah who was
in the leather business was in great
perplexity not long ago over compiled
tons in his business. Thinking the
problem over in his office, from which
he could view in the warehouse piles
of leather and skips of one sort and an
other, he resolved to try the expedient
commended to him by devout souls OF
resorting to the Bible. He happened
to open at the eleventh chapter of He
brews, and the first words his eyes
struck were these: "They went about
in sheepskins and goatskins.' He
still believes, however, that the good
book contains piles of comfort and
counsel.

on which there has been no reduction OF

Thioving Democratic Treasurers.

The mugwumps, free traders, and the
Democratic press Of all degrees of that
criminal partnership, are making a des-
perate effort to bcsmirch the official rec
ord of Chairman Quay of the Republican
National Committee on trumpcd up
charges of speculation with state funds
when he was treasurer of the State Of
Pennsylvania. Nearly every Democratic
state treasurer in the nation for a num-
Der of years past has been a thief or
defaultcr. The publication of the records
of their stealings has caused a vigorous
search by all the Democratic press and
its vermin 10 find some off.sctting crime
upon the part of Republican treasurers.
Nb being able 10 find a single instance
where any proof can be adduced OF NAL
feasance on the part of a Republican
state treasurer they are, in desperation
bowling in unison over this untrue
and exploded old charge against
Senator Quay in Pennsylvania in
1885, when he was a candidate for treas
urer of that state. Pennsylvania passed
upon these untrue charges, which have
recently been revived as something new,
in 1885, and Quay was elected Treasurer
by 43, $40 majority! Pennsylvania took
about as much stock in the TRADES Of
the democrats tnen as III docs IN the
ranting of the badly dcmoralized free
traders now. The people are not 10 be
mised by the efforts Of the vile partisan
press TO draw attention away from the
thievery of the rascally Democratic
State Tressurers, who have bankrupted
the Treasury of nearly every State that
has had a Democratic Treasurer during
the past ten years. The census returns
show that Democratic thievery and
speculation have increased the debt OF
Indiana So. 1900 i'm ten years. Here is
the record OF Democratic thicvery shown
by the State Treasures In eleven Demo
cratic States within the past ten years:
Indiana, numerous reform" thieves SO, 81, OOO
Louisiana, reform" State Treasurer. 793, 900
Georgia reform state Treasurer. .... 80 0OC

Arkansas, reform State Treasurer 1l5,47C
Alabama, reform" State Treasurer 90. 300, 0OC
These evidences If Democratic THEY
cry are all matters of public record.
They are not trumped up charges as Is
the case with the "reform" howl against
Senator Quay. Pennsylvania, by a full
State vote, has declared Quay innocent.
