The Pittsburg Leader, a Republ

The Pittsburg Leader, Republi.
can paper, says: "The more tho
Mckinley Tariff Bill is studied the
more forcible is the conviction
aroused that it is a measure con-
ceived and carried out in the inter
est of the rich man only, without
reference to the true principle OF
protection" The Leader has been
strong in support of the idea of pro-
lection, but it has committed the
error of supposing that the McKin-
ley bill provided any protection to
those who needed protection. This
error was made by a good many
voters in 1888 who are now wiser
men.

The Western farmer will have
no reason to complain of the new

can use his corn for fuel purposes

of high. priced coal.

What does the farmer get out of
the tariff grab? Nothing more than
the "home market" will allow for
his grain and meats, and with the
foreign market partially closed some
of his surplus products is likely to
rot in his crib. "oh, but we will get
more for our WOOL" says one. But
it is charged up to you in the yarn,
stockings, blankets, clothing, hats,
tinware, hardware, in short, every
thing may buy which is protected. y
You are victimized as well, but per-
haps to little less extent than the

aOur Philosonr,er.,

In the Petersburg Sentinel, of
Wednesday. has the following bits
of truth. Every farmer should
read them, for it will do his soul
good, and perhaps put him to think.
ing, as we'll:
'.The promises of the politicians
and the VOWS of the campaign liar
are once more heard in the rural
districts. The old game called
"fieece the farmer" will be PLAYED
after the election is over and the
taxes are to be levied. American.
farmers must be protected from the
bloody folks called pauper foreign
ers, who want to sell them goods
cheap. nAmerica for the Ameri-
cans" says Golf and Mckinley. and
"Americans for American monopo-
lists" echo the trusts. "Fleece the
farmer is a fine game. 1t makes
all of us rich. All the farmers are
out of debt and have lots of money
packed away in barrels and protect
ion is doing it,
why not give us more tariff? It's
a boss scheme. The nasty foreign
er pays it don't yer know? The
journal says so, and what the .JourB-
al says goes with the country lakes.
Come in, boys, and pay for our
bridge and our Jail and our other
bridge and our new court house in
front of our new jail. You're such
nice chaps, so good to us city peo-
pie to pay all the taxes and the tariff
and shout for more taxes and more
tariffs. Bully for you, anyhow"
off there's anybody 1 admire it's
a jay farmer paying forty seven per
cent. tariff taxes and swearing he
likes it. Congress, Mckinley and
the G. o. p. say damn the fool farmer,
anyhow, he always did pay all the
taxes and it's our business to see that
he keeps on doing so. And so say
we all. "America for Americans"
that is for some of us Americans
who help spend the taxes that our
jolly, rich, good natured '.jay"
cousins pay for us.
sThis is boss game, this game
called "Protection, or Fleece the
Farmer" He likes it because he
don't know any better, and the big
fellows like it because they make
their living out of 1t. Everybody's
happy"
cit is so nice and funny to see
how the lawyers and office holders
and professional lawmakers love
the farmer and pass all sorts of laws
and tariff bills for his special benefit.
How we laugh as we 'protect the
American COW" and hold up the
sbroad shield of American law" to
hide the poor house from the farm
er's sight. With what spasms of
mirth we notice how the more laws
we pass for the farmers benefit the
poorer he gets and the richer we
get, we fellows who pull the strings.
And the farmer votes right with us
all the time. OH how we laughl7
"Walk up, brother farmers, and
pay taxes on your land that is as
-sessed and taxed ut valuation of
about 90 per-, and we town land
spectators will pay taxes on our
land that is assessed on valuation
of 10 per cent. We love you, we
wrap our protection" arms about
you and pick your pockets, and you
vote our way like shrewd fellows
that you are, in your shoddy cotton

AT the late Mckinley demonstra-
ton in his own district, among the
notices displayed was one which
read: america against the world. -
1t is suggestive, and fitly expresses
the protection idea, that this coun-
try can shut itself up like a clam in
his she'll, and refuse all trade and
traffic with the other nations of the
earth. Can we afford to try it?

A LEVEL HEAD.
The Advantage of Presence OF
Mind in an Emergency.

During the late strike on the New
York central Railroad the militia
were ordered to be in readiness in
case Of a riot, but they were not
called out.
In an !nteruisw, Gov. Hill said the
troops were not to be called upon ex :
cept in case of an emergency. The
emergency had not arisen, therefore
they wonld not be ordered out. He
remarked that this was the first great
strike with which he had had expert
ence, and he did not propose to lose
his lead; the only point at which
there had been serious trouble was at
Syracuse, and there q deputy fheriff
had lost his head aud precipItated an
encounter,
The strike continuee several weeks,
and there was riotous action al varl-
Gus points along the road, but the
civil authorities we're able to cope
with it without calling on the militia.
The test Of q mans real ability
comes when an emergency arises
which makes a hasty cal on his good
judgment and discretion. The man
who retains his pr, sence of mind,
maintains his equipoise and exercises
sound discretion at such critical june,
lures, lie to be relied on and will be
put to the front.
Men with level heads have The stay
