THURsToN,s roCsIN.

Judge THURsToN's tariff speech was
serious disappointment to his Mime
apolis friends. They expected better
things of the renowned orator than to
get off mess of glittering generalities
intended more to infiame the passions
than to appeal to reason. The Mime
sofa Republicans are awfuliy i'll need
of somebody to furnish them with argu
ments to sustain the MCKINLEY bill.
They sent all the way down to Nebraska
for Judge THURsToN because they
thought that, having been chairman of
the convention which nominated HAfRi-
SON and which promulgated the Nc
KINLEY platform, he would be able to
give some reasons for the adoption of
such policy. But he disappointed
them. They don't know any more about
it now than before Judge THURsToN
came.
But it seems that Judge THURsToN
had another ak to grind. He had some
thing better to do than to construct
false arguments in support of PERM
cious tariff policy. He took advantage
of his Minneapolis visit 10 air himself
in the Republican press on the Repub-
lican nomination in 1892. He gave il
out cold to his Minnesota friends that
the Nebraska Republicans were fear
fully dissatisfied with BENJAMIN HAR-
RIsoN, and that his state will not favor
HARRIsoN's denomination. This is the
first open declaration of war against
HARRISON that has been made, but
it Will be followed up pretty soon by a
Republican revolt all over the country.
Whether THURsToN is for REED OIL
BLAINE is not known, but it is sure
that he is not for HARRISON. AS soon
as the election is over there will be
music in the Republican camp.

EDITOR VERSUS ADVERTISER

1.-The advertiser is the one who is
hurting us in this campaign. There are
so many people who read the advertise
ments in the newspapers that do not
read the political speeches and argu-
ments which are printed"
That was the remark made by a
prominent Republican politician a few
days ago while discussing the prospects
of the present campaign. And there
was a world of truth in what was said.
1t is the home argument, the fact as it is
brought to the everyday business sense
of the people, which is knocking the
spots out of the high-fown rhetoric of
the Republican speakers and organs in
their strained efforts to present the Nc
kinney bill III favorable light t. the
masses.
For confirmation of this truth one has
but to pick up any leading Republican
journal and compare its illogical utter
ances on the tariff with the more ration
al presentation of that subject in the
advertising columns.
10 illustrate. few days ago the New
York Tribune, the leading protective
organ in this country, contained a
lengthy and labored editorial in de-
Tense of the MCKINLEY bill, in which it
asserted that there would ana could
be no increase in the prices of dry
goods or the articles that were neces-
saries; yet in the very next column was
display advertisement of leading
dry goods house which made the an
nouncement that owing to the passage
of the MCkINREX bill the prices on all
articles in their store would be III
creased. On another page was another
display advertisement of a prominent

sumption can be supplied in this ceun-
try. 1t is not possible TO exceed two or
three plants will be attempted, and
possibly only the one at Pittsburg. The
reports sent out of the multiplication of
such plants are but fairy tales. There
is some question with scientific author
tiles whether, even with the duty of
cents pound imposed for the benefit of
the English syndicates that own the tin
mines, there can be any great proper
ton OF the tin ore used developed in
this country. There have been glowing
accounts of the richness of some of
the mines and the abundance of ore
soon to be supplied. The editer
of the Mining and Engineering journal
who is regarded as an expert in such
matters, has recently been Oh an i'll

THEY ARE CNGRaTEEIrr,

1t is insisted by the protective organs
that the dealers who have goods on
hand that have been imported should
not advance their prices, even if the
new duties do prevent their replenish-
ing their stocks except at much higher
figures. They should add nothing to
any article but what has been actually
paid under the new tariff. The laws of
trade are not running to meet the einer-
gency of the Republicans. These Ameri-
can carpet manufacturers are slngu-
1arly Obliylous IF the political situation.
They have proceeded to make an ad-
vance scale of prices, just as if the tariff
imposed duties on their goods. No new
tax has been imposed on them, they
have not raised the wages of their
employees, and it does not appear
that there is any increase IN the
cost of the goods to be made. ex-
cept perhaps in duties on some of the
material that may be imported. The
stock on hand has enlarged figures, and
the future manufacture looks to the
tariff schedules to see what elevation i'm
price it can take. These carpet pro-
ducers have evidently been too busy to
attend Republican meetings or read pro-
lection literature, or they would be
aware that the object of protective du-
ties is to stimulate home production so
as to engross the market and make
goods cheap, as well as raise the wages
of the workers. Their ingratitude is
the more pronounced in that they have
not waited for their advance till after
the election, and have put the larger
ratio of increase on the carpets used by
the people who need the cheaper car
pets. just as the tariff does.

the Fifth district.
DULUTH. Mimi, Oct II, 1S9O.-The farm
erS OF Minnesota have something more to
think OF than the MCKINLEY 5ill'' and the
southern problem.
The OK knows his owner aud the ass his
masters crib, but the citizens of this state
do not consider their own wheat bins from
which they get their daily bread. Until 1855
the miliers' association absolutely controlled
the grain trade of Minnesota and Dakota
In that year 10 VS. were enacted to relieve the
people OF that monopoly. Freedom of traffic,
with state weighing and state inspection,
were considered sufficient remedy. The first
commissioner appointed by Gov. Hubbard
did some good service to the state, but since
then they have degeDerated into nothing
more than political tramps, appointed for no
visible qualification but making stump
speeches and fixing up caucuses and con-
Ventlons; ana some of their subordinates are
chosen for the same reasons.
Last year Minnesota raised 10000, 600
Dusnels or the Tinest wheat that ever waved
in The sunlight. In the early part of that
marketing season when deliveries from
the producer were heavy, a good deal
OF our No. hard was graded No. l North
ern, ana the line elevators i'll the country
were instructed to give No. hard tor moth
ing. In the latter part of the season grades
were easier, thus enabling the line elevators
10 unload at enormous profits. This season
tne grading starts out too severe again. The
loss of grade on a carload OF wheat means a
loss or about S5o. just and uniform grades
all the year round is the spirit and letter of
the law. Is it not possible and reasonable TO
suppose that the same forces that carried
state inspection to Washburn, Wisconsin, a
lew years age, for the benefit of Minneap-
Oils partieS, is still at work manipulating our
grades and markets: This delicate and i'm
portant business in the hands of political
tramps is sickening sight, the abomination
OF WlckednesS. The Democratic party, i'll
~eiheir wrath deneunce the grain law, and
propose to destroy it altogether. The ALT
ance, year after year, has urged the honest
enforcement of our grain and railroad laws,
and that all appointments be made for fitness
and not to pay political debts The grain
laws of this state should now and forever be
divorced from party politics, and l call on
all good citizens TO take the counsel of Mr.
Erwin: .'Rouse ye like lions from YOU
lairs.' Shake off the filthy rags of parry pref
udiee and consider your daily bread, your
