Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1891-09-10

The Beacon may claim that it is not
called upon to state its prohibition ten
dencies; but will its editor please state
why it is that the Kansas Farmer and
the Topeka Advocate, the two leading
alliance papers of the state are "called
upon" to espouse prohibition in almost
every issue? If that question is not to
be considered in the campaign of this
fall, why do those two papers come out
squarely and espouse prohibition? The
trouble with the Beacon is that it is a
policy paper and not an open and can
did advocate of what it's editor believes.
He, the editor, knows that a large
number of members of the third party
in this county would not stay with him
one day if they should be convinced
that the editor of the paper is at heart
an uncompromising prohfbitioDist.
There are others, however, who would
think much more of him should he
work openly and squarely for his be-
lief.

Mckinley is rash in some of his
statements, whichcshows him either to
be ignorant of what he says or denla-
gogue who is bent On deceiying the
people. He is telling the people of Ohio

President Harrison must have felt
elated over the course pnrsued 10y his

After endorsing the administration in
terms of the highest praise the platform
states that the republican party in

thing that is grand and glorious in re-
publicanism, and urges upon the
national convention the Importance of
running him for the presidency in 1892.
This fall Quay will be at the helm OF
the republican party in Pennsylvania.
it viii be his ticket that Will be in the
field and he will stake his all 20 elect it.

wind him up politically. Hence lie viii
make desperate effort TO win. He
has two great objects in view: his con-
troll of the state delegation to the re-
publican national convention, and hls
reelection to the United States senate.
He has entered on a warfare for Blaine,
believing that that will be magnificent
move for him in state that can always
be counted for the man from Maine.
Quay hopes that the Blaine glamour
Will blind the eyes of the independents

politics, and arouse their enthusiasm
to such height that they VIII support
his state ticket in order to, boost the
Blaine boom. But he is likely to boost

Careful investigation by experts has
shown that to establish genuine tn
plate mill in this country would be a
task involving n years time in the
construction of buildings, furnaces and
machinery, and an expenditure of from
S150, 900 to $500, 900 before single plate
should have been dipped. Such a mill
would he large enough to make tinplate
in commercial quantities, and If the
product should compare favorably in
quality and in price with the imported
plate it would find ready market. 1t
is needless to say, however, that the
dealers in tinplate are ignorant Of the
existence of any such plant in this
country, nor has the construction of it
here been seriously proposed All talk
of tinplate-mill building in the United
States at the present time is indulged
in either for advertising purposes or
for political effect.

Good Democratic Talk.

The Ellinwood Advocate, in an edi-
torial last week on the situation of
political affairs in this county, makes
some good points and shows its editor
as being a straight, uncOmpromising
democrat, and one who considers his
party principle first and local success
secondary. We give the following ex-
tract from the editorial referred to:
1--WE can only reason of the future
by what we have learned in the past,
and we do know that in the past the
democrats of this county have been
very successful, and that when the third
party appeared in the field there were
not as many democrats who joined it
as there were republicans, for the SIM
pie reason that the democrats were al
ready as near, and had been for years,
to the principles laid down by the
third party as prudence and patriotism
would permit, while the republican was
the party of plutocracy pure and un-
defiled. Hence there were democrats
that would not vote with the republi-
cans under any consideration, and vice
versa. Under this condition of affairs
some democrats voted with the alli-
ance, and at the expense of their own
party, made the alliance strong enough
to carry the county; but seemingly the
oil ic hot fuo
was the key to their success.
''NOw, if the democrats will make
good nominations they will find all who
once belonged to the party ready to
fall in line and again work for their
first love. The democracy, as party,
have no desire to fuse with any other
party; only personal ambitions could
be conserved by such fusion; the de-
mOcracy is party of principle; prin-
ciple that is becoming clear to all rea-
sonable, sane people; principle that
will inevitably carry this country for
democracy in '92. We wish to gently
remind the democrats of Barton that,
though defeated in local fight in Bar
ton county, it will not dim the fact
that we belong to the grandest and
most laudable party in America; a
party that last year polled majority
of over 500 900 votes, being a majority
of over 100000 over all other parties
combined; party with the most bril-
liant and unimpeachable records in the
annals of American history. A party
that last fall elected 236 representatives
against 81 republicans and eight for
the alliance; party that elected %
governors; a party that will in '92
make clean sweep of the country and
gain control of every branch of the
federal government. We can afford to
make fight in this county for the
principle of the old party even if we
lose. We. for one, would like to see
the party come to the front with full
and independent democratic ticket and
fight all opposition to a finish"

seemed to enjoy themselves to the
utmost.
Threshing is now progressing rap
idly, the stacks being dry and In good
condition for the work. The quality of
the wheat is not very good, and the
yield is somewhat below the average,
but with good prices in prospect our
farmers expect to realize about as much
from this years crop as they did dur
ing many of the good seasons.
