The silver and greenback men are
pushing the gold ring men in congress
to the wall with argument. Facts
have overthrow their ancient fictions
that silver would. drive gold out Of the
country. More money is needed to
conduct the growing business of the
country and the gold bugs are at last
compelled to admit this fact, but they
fight silver against the demands of the
people and the logic Of common sense.
The reason is plain. The men in pow
er are q part and parcel of the specu.
lating gold ring. They can buy more
with their interest when prices are
low and money scarce, than when
business is brisk and prices advanced
When the representatives Of the gold
ring are turned out of congress and
Representatives of the people are plac.
ed in control, prosperity will return tc
the industrial class.

o, yes! Thomas g. Sherman, says
1.-The issue Of tariff reform Is dead"
He has never been q tariff reform
man. He is, and always has been an
advocate OF absolute free trade, and
hence Is as hostile to protection as
to tariff for revenue.
The republican policy Of making .
tariff so high as to prohibit imports,
in one respect will result precisely as
Mr.. Shearman, desires; in raising the
revenues Of the government by a
direct tax. The point OF difference
would be, that the republican policy
would impose one tax, and far the
heaviest one, for the benefit OF rich
manufacturers, corporations monopo-
lists and millionaires, and another to
defray the expenses OF the govern
ment. Mr.. Shearlnan's policy would
impose but one tax, and that solely
and exclusively for public use. The
public revenue required is $40, OOO, 900
annually. The population OF the
country in round numbers is 10000.
600. A tax Of 81. imposed upon each
individual amounts to the sum re-
quired. But Mr.. Shearlnan desires
the tax levied upon property instead
Of on individuals as it Is indirectly in
a tax collected by import duties. AS
Stunning that the average OF property
would give each person $1,000, then
under Mr.. Shearman's idea OF obtain
ing revenue each $1,000, would pay q
tax of -. But perhaps one thousand
persons own one half the property Of
the country, while millions own CON-
paratively nothing. Mr.. Sherman,
and the free traders would compel
those who own the property to pay the
taxes relieving those who live from
hand to mouth from paying . TX
upon what they eat and wear.
An absurdity of levying tax on
consumers to pay subsidy to manu-
faturers is seen in the sugar manufact-
ure. The cost of machinery In .
plant capable of manufacturing the
cane grown on 1000 acres IL 800. 600
for the diffusion system which 10 the
best. OF this cost$45 600 is tariff. But
Of course according to the republican
idea it is paid by 1.-THE blarsted En-
glishman,' but the men who put In
the machinery think differently.

The Power Of Hunger.

We had the pleasure OF listening to
q most interesting sermon yesterday
at the Congregational church upon
the above subject, by Rev. Mcconnell
His text was from that beatitude
which says Blessed are they that
hunger and thirst after Righteousness
for they shall be filled, but he did not
confine himself, by any means, to
spiritual hunger. He said that while
physical hunger was doubtless q wise
provision Of nature to stimulate man.
kind to industry, it il also the great
est detriment and drawback to high
er social and spiritual life; that while
men and women are bound down by
want or the fear OF want, they can
not discern the higher life.
How true this is, and yet how slow
are the clergy as class to discern
this fact. Poverty and the fear Of
poverty is the hell which Americans
most fear. And there is no need of
this. There is enough for all. Even
under our present outrageous social
system, which prevents production
by holding natural opportunities out
Of use-which prevents exchange by
lack Of circulating medium and
monopolization of the great high
ways-even under these conditions
the accumulated wealth Of the country
exceeds 81, 900 for each man, woman
and child! But under our present in
sane laws all this wealth the product
OF labor, has passed into the hands
OF men who never produced q dollar
OF it, while the toilers are left to hum
ger. Under conditions which left un-
used natural opportunities free to ey-
erybody who wished to use them; un-
der conditions which left each man
free to exchange the product Of his
labor for the products Of another's
labor anywhere; under conditions
which would facilitate exchange by
reasonable transportation charges,
and q sufficient quantity :of the me-
dunn of exchange to do the business
or the country, poverty and the fear
Of poverty would be abolished and
men would be free from the harassing
struggle for exist ence which is now q
milestone about their necks and
which most effectually suppresses
every noble aspiration.
This is the problem to which the
clergy should address themselves il
they would regenerate the world.
There is no missionary work that can
compare with it in importance or re-
suits. Let the church and the clergy
concern themselves about these great
social problems, upon which the very
life OF our present civilization depend
and they will be much more effectu-
ally following their Master than by
any more questions Of discipline. rit-
ual hymnology, or predestination. =

HughisM having been detected about
his clothing" So saith the p. D. Of
last week in noticing Mr.. Lights de.
parture from Cresco. The only time
Mr.. McHugh called upon his friends
to show their hands was in the county
congressional contest Of 1883. Mr..
Light was delegate in that c0nven-
ton and voted for McHugh delegates.
Mr.. Renwick was also q delegate to
that convention and voted against q
McHugh delegation, yet as the Re.
publican candidate for recorder this
fall, he was as badly defeated as Mr..
Light. Comment is unnecessary, and
we only stop to state that in such
breaks as the above, the p. d. has
the field to itself.-McHugh Organ
No. /.
And yet both were the nominees
OF a convention manipulated and
controlled in the McHugh interest
last fall. Comment is indeed unnec.
essary.

POLITICS IN OHIO.
Both Sides Of the Question Discussed by
Prominent Men.

Stopping at the Rainier hotel are two men
prominent. in Ohio politics-one a Republican
and one Democrat. Both are from Cambridge.
In Guernsey county of that state. The former,
Judge Nathan II. Barber, Is the county judge,
and the latter, Mr.. W. 4. Boden, was for many
years county auditor. A little while ago he
enjoyed the distinction of being the first Demo
crat elected to the state legislature from Guern-
sey county in thirty two years. he ran for state
treasurer on the ticket with Governor James
Campbell, but the only successful candidates on
that ticket were the governor and one other.
The two friends take radically different views
OF the present condition of Ohio politics.
Mr. Boden said last night: Campbell will be
reelected governor without doubt. He has
carried the state once and he can carry IL again,
for his course governor, though it has dis
pleased some, has strengthened him in the state
at large. He is especially popular among the
farmers, and they viii give him q generous
support
Judge Barber said: 81 was member of the
Republican convention which nominated Nc
kinley a few weeks ego, and / can say that
there has never been such enthusiasm in the
party in Ohio since John Brough was nominated
in 1863 Major Mckinley 10 by all odds the
most popular man in the state; by young and
old. Republicans and Democrats, he is greatly
liked, and his very presence In the field will
draw thousands Of votes
"One thing noticeable about our convention
was the large number of farmers there. They,
too, were full OF enthusiasm and ii was evident
that they were not opposing Mckinley on the
tariff Issue, indeed, they were in favor OF his
bin. Yes, Mckinley will sweep everything be-
fore him"
