Afraid of the Farmers.

The ST. Louis Republic seems to
be alarmed. 1t is afraid that the
farmers organization is going to do
something to injurc the democratic
party.
The Republic seems to be aware Of
the fact that when an organization
like the Farmers and Laborers'
union, formed for the purpose OF
protecting and promoting the inter-
ests of the agriculturist, takes an in
terest in politics, it isn't apt 10 do n
great deal of work for the success of
q gang of professional democratic
politicians. That paper probably
knows how little The democratic party
has done for the farmers and bust
ness men of Missouri, and it probably
knows how little the farmers and
business men owe that party. 1t is
probably aware of the fact that the
farmers ought to nominate mcn who
will represent their interests and is
afraid they will do It. 1t is probably
aware of the fact That the democratic
party of this state ought to be de-
feated and is afraid it will get what
it deserves.
The Republic is not alarmed with
out reason. The people Of Missouri
are gradually getting tired of mis-,
rule, and the fact that these organi-
cations are being formed shows that
the people arc taking more interest
in the questions of government. And
just in proportion rs the people OF
this state take an active interest IL
political matters and do their OWL
thinking just in thaJ proportion arc
the chances of democratic success
decreased.
We do not know that there is any
danger of a third party being formed
in this state by the farmers. We de
believe, however, that the farmers 9,
Missouri are going to look after thei
interests in politics more CAREFUL!
hereafter, and that they are deter
mined to elect men TO Office who vii
represent 1hcm.
We are opposed to q third part.
because we know the farmers ca
use the old parties if they will. But
while we do not favor %indepcndcn
movements, which seldom accomplis
anything, we believe the farmer
ought to sit down on the professions
: politicians and elect 10 the legislator
and to congress men who have som
n acquaintance with the farming, ii
dustrial and business interests of til
{ state and who are intelligent an
honest enough to represent those ii
terests.-EX.

Editor STATE REPUBLICAN, Jeffer.
son City: Will you please answer
the following questions through the
columns of your paper and set right
the minds of many mistaken men,
especially foreigners:
Who is entitled TO vote? Does a
foreigner who has not yet received
his final naturalization papers commit
a crime by voting or offering 10 vote
What is the penalty for illegal vot.

The English free trader fading
that the people Of the United States
refuse to repeal their protection laws,
and that all other nations have fol-
lowed the United States, and now
protect their home industries, there
is no place for Enaland's free trade
goods, and tleir capitalists are taking
new invc7tments. Hence the invest
mcnts in American brcweyies, etc.
The Englishman's heart would re-
i1ice if he could only break down

Editor REPUBLICAN,: Permit mem
hers ofthe board of education througi
the columns Of your paper 10 make an
explanation relating TO the pending
proposition to purchase site or sites
and the erection OF school buildings.
Row this proposition did not originate
with the board OF education, but is
made in compliance with petitions
signed by 76 tax payers requesting
tic board to submit such proposition
to voters Of jefferson City school dis
trict at the ensuing election.
Section 5000 of the revised statutes
of Missouri provides; That when
ever ten tax payers request the board
of education TO submit 10 the tax
payers of the district u proposition
! to buy site and erect additional school
bai,dings, the said board shall sub
nit the same to the qualified voters,
also determine the rate of tax neces-
sary to be levied.
The board, upon due deliberation,
found that a levy of 4 cents on the
one hundred dollars valuation each
for interest and sinking fund pur-
poses would he sufficient to pay the
interest upon $4,000 bonds and pay
of the debt contracted within ten
years, giving the district two new
school buildings. School taxes have
been steadily redcccd from IS cent,
in 1882 to 81 cents in 1880, and the
bonded debt has been reduced during
this period from $40, 800 TO S25,70O
The probable levy for the currenr
year will be 40 cents for teachers ant
, incidental expenses, g cents to pa,
interest on bonded debt, and 8 cent,
5 for sinking fund, making a total o.
80 cents. Should the taxpayers vol,
, tho additional tax the levy will onl,

II the discussion Of the question
Of free trade or protection between
EIr. Gladstone on the side Of free
trade, and Mr.. Blaine on Tie side Of
protection, some very interesting
features are presented. Mr.. Glad
stone, however, makes three admis-
SONS that will break the heart Of the
American democrat. He says that
wages are higher under protection
that the maHulacturcr is hampercd
rather than benefited by it, and that
the United States should use its labor
in raising more glain, cotton, corn.
etc. and not bother about manufac
turing goods so long AS they can buy
them for less money abroad.
