Here is the Evidence.

1t Is bea utiful protection we are giving
these manufacturers that will enable them
to pay the expenses OF shipping them at g
profit and st a price so per cent less than
they charge the farmers at home for identi-
cally the same articles.-[Dickinson County
News.
We never gave our Cedar street
friends credit for fully understanding
the tariff question but we certainly
never suspected them of such gross ig-
norance as the above item and the az
ticle from which it is taken evidences.
It is not the fact that the English
people can buy our merchandise cheap
ar than we can. The export prices
such as the News quotes and which APP
pear lower than the domestic prices are
so only because the wholesale prices are
given in the former case and the retail
prices in the latter. By the time the
goods reach the foreign consumer the
middleman's profits have made their
price to him quite as much as il is to
the home consumer. You see this
charge made Ofteuest about spool thread
and agricultural implements. Well,
George A. Clark & Co. deny that
they sell cheaper for export than to the
home market. The Mccormick Har-
vesting Machine company say: We
get the cash for export machines de-
liyered in New York, and a very much
better price than the same machines
net US in the United States" The
Walter A. Wood Moving and Reaping
Machine company say they get 10 to 20
per cent larger prices for exported ma
chimes than for those they sell here,
The ]. L. Case Threshing Machine
company give discount, but it is for
leash against bill lading" as against
long credit given here, so far as it is
not merely to cover the difference be-
tween wholesale and retail prices.
The Studbaker Bros Manufacturing
company say they now make no distinc-
ton in price in favor of foreign mar
kets and the Oliver Chilled Plow Works
have the same foreign and American
wholesale prices. These are the leading
agricultural machinery makers in the
country but dozens of others say with
them that the difference quoted
is between domestic retail and foreign
wholesale prices. And that distinction
is of course made alike by exporters in
protected countries and in free trade
countries, and on both protected and
unprotected goods. The News will
fool nobody by its trumped up and un-
fair price quotations. Americans buy
more for the same money than the
English taking the year round and the
people know it.

Starting Early.

Some of the members of the peoples
party with democratic antecedents
have carried their peculiar methods of
conducting elections into the first cam
paigu Of that political organization.
The followinth dispatch is very signif-
cant:
HIAwATHA, Kas,, Nov. 1O.-The
charge is openly made that five Indians
voted at POwhatan, a voting place
near the reservation, and were paid 81
a piece to vote the democratic ticket.
Thirty men voted the peoples ticket
in West Horton who had no right ia
vote. Attorneys have been hired for a
contest of the vote.

The GlObe-DemOcrat pays the fol-
lowing deserved compliment to Cover
nor Humphrey: Governor Humphrey,
of Kansas, has reason TO feel proud
over his reelection in view of the sin
lister and determined forces that were
srrayed against him. His plurality is
not monumental, to be sure, but it is
sufficiently large toproye that he is the
right man in the right place."

fatigue of the terrible march through the trop-
ical forest remarkably well. lie assisted IN

turn westward to the Congo i'll search OF the

thc garrison. Poor Randy could not under
stand that he had been mercifully spared the
fatigue Of journey of a thousand miles. lie
only knew that he had been separated from
his master From the hour of Mr. Stanley's
departure he mOpcd and pcrSlstently refused
food The attentions Of the officers were IN

I'D arms against them. Two or three times in
the course Of year the journals of this town
contain accounts of what are widely hcralded

cases be accurate and scientifc-and this is a
most elastic concession TO creduity-the per-
centage for centre of population Of over

as to demonstrate that the disease is phe-
nomenally rare, and that there is no ground
for public panic on the subject. Yet, when
