oUFFs. COLLARS AND SHIRTS.

The Chicago Tribune ranks among the
ablest and most influential journals in
the whole West. 1t is vigorous i'll tone
and Republican in politics. One would
expect such journal to rise above a
petty provincialism and narrow section
alism. But it displays the same cheap
animosity toward everything Eastern
that is found in a back country cross
roads weekly near Sitting Bulls head
quarters. The latest drive is at the
Troy collar, cuff and shirt industry.
1t says:
"The women are not the only ones who
are affected by these new duties. The
men have to walk up to the mill boss's
Office and settle. BY the old law the
duty on shirts was from thirty to forty
per cent. By the new law the duty on
shirts is fifty-five per cent, and on collars
and cuffs forty per cent. dd rdloren, and
thirty cent per dozen pieces, being an
advance of about three cents on each
collar or cuff.
"This provision of the bill was put in
for the exclusive benefit of few manu-
facturers, mostly of Troy N. Y. That
they needed mo additional protec-
ton is shown by the fact that two
sold twenty-five times the amount sold
by all the importers. The business done
in domestic collarsand cuffs amounts to
about $3,0O0,000; the value of all the
foreign ones imported will not reach
$500, 900. For every dozen imported
shirts sold 10000 dozen domestic shirts
are sold. So that business needed no
higher protection.
nWith this prohibitory duty behind,
the manufacturers Of collars and cuffs
have the public at their mercy, and they
have begun the fatfTying process already
and will keep it up till the duties are put
back where they were.
Zone of the effects of the Nc Kinley
bill having shown itself in a rather un-
pleasant fashion, why not repeal these
higher duties? They do not benefit the
farmer. who cannot be coaxed to raise
fax for the fibre. They hurt every con-
sumer, male and female. They are
profitable only to a few greedy manufac-
urers who were making money under
the old rates, but who saw in the
Nc Kinley bill chance to get rich
suddenly"
The foregoing is what stump speaker
might call IA tissue of falsehood,' but
we deprecate any such discourtesy in the
ulbCuS6lOu Vi lltiN anu NthlAhs hNN viz
Tribune is off the track is evident
to every one familiar with the facts.
The charge that the prices of the man
ufactures named have gone up on

true. There has been no fiat frying

could not be successfully carried out
without gigantic trust that it is impos.
sible to form. Competition is brisk, and
and the struggle for the home market is
of character that forbids any advance
in prices.

FARMERS ALLIANCE PLATFORM.

The platform of the National Farmers
Alliance, adopted at Ocala, Fla, is as
follows:
We demand the abolition of national
banks and the substitution of legal ten
der treasury notes in lien of national
bank notes, issued in sufficient volume
to do the business of the country on a
cash system regulation, the amount
needed in per capita basis as the bust
ness interests of the country expands,
and that all money issued by the govern
ment shall be legal tender in payment of
all debts, both public and private.
We demand that Congress shall pass
such laws as shall effectually prevent the
dealing in futures of all agricultural and
mechanical productions, preserving a
stringent system of procedure in trials as
shall secure the prompt conviction, and
imposing such penalties as shall secure
the most perfect compliance with the
law.
We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. We demand the pas
sage of laws prohibiting the alien owner
ship of land, and that Congress take
early steps to devise some plan to obtain
all lands now owned by aliens and for.
eign syndicates, and that all lands now
held by railroad and other corporations
but such as is actually used and needed
by them be reclaimed by the government
and held for actual settlers.
Believing in the doctrine of "equa
rights to all and special privilege tc
nonen we demand that taxation, nationa
or state, shall not be used to build VI
one interest or class at the expense O
the other. We believe that the money
of the country should be kept as mucl
as possible in the hands of the people
and hence we demand that all revenues
national, state or county, shall be limited
to the necessary expenses of the govern
ment, economically and honestly admin
| istered.
We demand that Congress issue a suffi
| cient amount of fractional paper cur
| rency to facilitate exchange through TIL,
medium of the United States mail.
We demand that the means of commu
nication and transportation shall b.
owned by and operated in the interest o
the people as is the United States posta
system.
The railroad plank was the subject o
some discussion, and it was amended S,
that it provides for the complete govern
ment and state control of railroads b.
commissions, and if this is not sufficien
to cure the evils in railroad management
of which the Alliance complains, the
the platform declares for an absolut
government ownership and operation q

eral brands of collars Improvements
costing from one to two cents a dozen
have been made without any increase
Of price On no brand has there been a
cent added TO the price.
When a shirt can be bought at any
price from forty cents up, and collars
good enough for anybody two for
quarter is hard to convince consumers
that they are robbed If the importiOn
of German collars, which were becoming
pOpularized in this country, had con
tinued unabated, they would have in
creased to an extent necessitating the
reduction Of wages on the part Of Troy
manufacturers. This importation was
comparatively recent beginning, and
was largely the work of John Wana-
maker, who made strong effort to
popularize foreign goods in his great
Philadelphia establishment. Importa-
tiOns gradually increased until the duty
was advanced, when they naturally di-
minished. Dudes and swells who want
foreign goods must pay a somewhat
higher price, but consumers generally
can get home makes equal in quality,
style and finish as cheap as before.
Collars and cuffs are principally made
in the East-in fact, in Troy-and they
comprise an industry (which Western
papers feel free to attack without much
reference to facts. However adversely
it may have operated in relation to
certain American interests. the McKin-
ley bill in its collar, cuff and shirt pro-
vision hus done no injury TO the million
of consumers, while it has afforded addi-
tional protection to the manufacturers
and tens of thousands of employees en-
gagged in these great linen industries.
As large proportion of the labor is
female, its protection from degradation
is a matter of general congratulation,
without regard to party lines. 1t is
Tribune that its solicitude on behalf of
the dear public is in this instance ground
less.-TrOy Press.

ST.. LOUIS, Jan. 17.-Letters received
by w. L. Eagleson, business manager
Of the immigration society in Kansas,
from points in North Carolina, say that
large number of negroes of that state
are going through in wagons this winter
to the new territory. Mr.. Eagleson says
there are now about $4,000 negroes in
Oklahoma and that by spring there
will be at least $4,000. He claims they

President Lincoln and the Republican
party promised to give it to them. He
adds: 1--WE are determined to take it
anyhow and we will make 1t one of the
