The dishonest dollar is the dollar
that is MT . legal tender: the dollar
that is issued by the national banks
and is only good because the govern

in legal tender greenbacks. The So

prietors or their friends are stock
holders in the pernicious system,

to plumber the people without a
farthing Of benefit to them in return,
are not democratic and should not be

or jackson democrat.
The dishonest dollar il the bankers
dollar; the dollar that IL not a legal

dollar they wish to pay the farmer in

which they think is good enough

Manufacturing and Farming.

added $2,OCO, 0O0, 900 to our capital in
vested in manufactures, an increase Of
nearly Is per cent. In the Same time
the value of our manufactured products
has risen from %, SOC, 0OO, 900 to $780,

other words, we are now producing man.
ufactured goods at the rate Of $780,
100000 q year more than we were ten
years ago."
That is q splendid exhibit for manu-
features; but how does the matter stand
with agriculture? The value Of the
staple crops produced in 1890 was actual
~ less than in 1880, although there were
more farms and more farmers. For the
past three or four years the average
value Of our crops has been very much
below the value ten years ago. Manu-
features go forward by leaps and
bounds, but agriculture lags behind,
although farmers work just as hard as
ten years ago and cultivate more
ground.
Yet, in the face Of such facts as these,
Census Superintendent Robert P. Porter

A money making business always at

and agriculture, with tits excsss OF bepe-

Governor Boies' Cherokee Speech.

ing. The speech covers but two OF
the issues Of the campaign, prohibit
ton and the tariff. both OF which are
ably discussed. The other issues OF
the campaign will doubtless be dis
cussed in future addresses and will
when made be presented through the
PLAIN DEALER to it's many readers.
These questions are the silver ques.
lions, the Australian ballot and the
question OF railroad transportation.

logical Its reasoning upon these
two subjects is conclusive. His rea-
soning on these two questions will
carry conviction to whoever will care.
fully read and consider them because
they are based upon fact and truth.
More forcible reasons could not be
given why Iowa should discard pro.
hibition and accept local option. On
the tariff he completely annihilates
the papers which have untruthfully
represented his New York speech.
He does not complain Of their criti.
cisms but Of their untruthful repre-.
sensations as to what he said. He de.
plored in that speech the fact that
while Iowa was blessed with album.
dant crops that the manufacturers OF
shoddy, the railroads and the specu-
lators Of the east gathered the harvest
leaving the farm er but little better
for all his toll and privation. The
farmer who has not realized the truth
OF that statement has had other
means than cultivating the soil to
avert the extortion of the protected
monopolies of the east.
AS lucid an argument upon the re.
naming issues of the campaign will
leave governor Boies SO far ahead Of
his traducers who use denunciation
and falsehood instead OF fact, truth
and argument, that little further at
tention need be given their cavaling

And now what has been the result OF
all this tariff building? II is stated by
the importers that fully one-half Of our
usual imports Of corduroys has been cut
of, and that this proportion win soon
become three-fourthA Meanwhile the
Providence firm, for whose benefit the
duty was increased, has not succeeded in
turning out such goods as this market
demands. They produce . lightweight
stuff not suited to the rough wear for
which people usually buy corduroy.
Their New York agent exhibits their
samples and remarks, Like the tin plate
manufacturers,w we at least have samples"
But samples do not make the laboring
mans trousers.

ROBBED or THEIR TROUSERS.

How tho Mckinley Tariff Has Shut Out
Corduroy "Breeches."
A good illustration Of the mischief
wrought by the Mckinley law Is found
in the case Of corduroya We have been
importing, 1t is estimated, about a mil.
lion yards Of corduroys year. At least
three.fourths Of this was cheap grade
Of goods, worn by laboring men. farm
hands, etc.
Under the old tariff the duty on cor.
duroys was IS per cent. ad valorem; and
even with such high protection no cordu-
roy was made in the United States.
Corduroy makers must have . long
training, as the corduroy, after being
woven, must be cut by hand, an opera
ton requiring great skill and patience.
Owing to the great difficulty Of manu-
facturo and to the cheapness Of foreign
corduroy our manufacturers have pru-
IDENTIFY kept out Of the business. One
firm, however, the Crompton Mills COM
pany, Of Providence, thought they
would like to try an experiment in max
ing corduroys, and so for their sake alone
Senator Aldrich, Of that state, had the
duty on corduroy raised. The old IS
per cent. duty was changed to q COM
pound duty Of fourteen cents q square
yard and 20 per cent. I'D valorem. The
effect Of this change Is to make an enor-
nous increase in the duty on the cheapest
goods, while there is scarcely any change
at all on the finest.
The following table will show the Diff
ference in the way the tariff makers
dealt with the poor mans corduroys and
with the costlier goods which are used
by richer men to make riding and hunt
ing suits. This table takes two grades
Of goods, one wholesaling at twenty
cents square yard, the other at sixty
cents:

Among all people, even the most barba-

1t was in the arid plains of Asia. The
noble sheik, Dhanmeg Yute, was presented
with an antique book of wisdom compiled
by some old forgotten philosopher. He
read it carefully, but the more he tried to
penetrate its hidden meanings the more he
became confused. At last in despair he
resolved to send for his three chief inter

some inkling of the truth.
The gifted trio came post haste into
their masters tent, and tried to look, as is
customary in such cases, good deal wiser
than they felt.

'Your highness," began the wiseacre

him, ''you certainly can understand better

''Most noble Dh1nmeg," was the second

the book because it is altogether too dumb
and stupid for your mighty intellect"
Once more the hue of the storm cloud
crossed the chieftain's face, and he bade
his satellites hang the second sage beside
his fellow on the same scaffold of degra-
dation.
s'Most illustrious Dhanmeg," began the
youthful Viii Talli, the youngest of the
three, and who was famous for his love of
truth, "you didn't understand the book OF
wisdom because you haven't got sense
enough to GO in when it rains.''
'Why, Nalli' cried the great Dhanmeg
Yute enthusiastically, "your gall is GER

merits in this respect, you shall have the
pleasure Of dying on gallows of the best

Mr.. ]. f. Meighan, Pittsburgh cigar
dealer, awoke one morning with an at
tack of rheumatism in his right arm.
Working around the store during the
forenoon made it worse. BY noon the
pain was go severe that he could not
raise his hand to his head and had to
carry his arm in sling. One of his Gus
toners, on learning the facts, went
across the street to E. E. Heck's drug
store, and at his own expense procured
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and persuaded the cigar dealer to try it.
1t eased the pain and reduced the swell
ing so that by the next morning he
could use his arm, and by the second
morning was entirely well. This is only
one of the many severe cases of rheuma-
tism that have been cured by this valu-
able remedy. 80 cent bottles for sale
