A SOUTH DAKOTA SENATOR.

Mr.. JAMES H. KYLE, a reverend by the
way, has been elected United States Sen
ator from South Dakota, to succeed Sen
ator MoopY, whose term will expire on
March 4. Unless this case shall prove
radical departure from the rule, the selec-
ton is political mistake, and will be re-
GREETED for just six years by at least all the
Democrats who voted for the man. We
say the election is a blunder, for the rea-
son that it was brought about by combi-
nation of so-called Independents and Dem
ocrats. These combinations are rarely If
ever good. The men agreed upon repre-
sent nobody and are usually devoid OF
political principles, while they do not hold
themselves responsible to anybody. They
are also without influence, for the reason
that they are not alined and cannot be
tied to. An independent" in Congress is
little else than a nuisance, and if he doesn't
despise himself he should do so.
1t is to be regretted that the Democrats
in the legislature weakened and permitted
themselves to support man who must be
opposed to the party. The Democrats were
supporting "a good man, BARTLETT TRIP,
and they should have stood by him and
forced the enemy to settle their own quar-
rel among themselves. OF course, Mr..
TRIP could not be elected. He is too good
Democrat and too good a man for that,
but his partisans could have preserved
their self-respect and known that they
were not party to bargain for the ad-
vancement of the opposition.
Another thing in this connection which
is against the choice of the majority, is
that MIR. KYLE is minister. True, min
listers are very good in the churches and
among the people, but they are mighty
poor material out of which to make Con-
gressmen No matter how successful they
may be in the pulpit and how highly they
may be respected there, in Congress they
are very apt to prove failures and to bring
upon themselves thecontempt of their as
sociates and of the public They usually
set out to elevate" their fellows to their
"level,n but soon find themselves fan
below the level of those they intended K
reform.
We hope that Mr.. KYLE will prove an ex
ception to the rule of compromise candi
dates elected to office, and also that he viii
not prove to be so much Of minister tina
he will be an impractical chump in tn,
Senate; but observation in many casel
causes US to doubt in this.

country to buy anything, and our people would
be in the condition of the people of Portugal
and Ireland
"1f our country would but send away the
money to buy these things" but our coun-
try cannot do any such thing. No country
can. 1t is simply an impossibility for coun-
tries to trade with one another except by
exchanging goods. We send many millions
OF dollars worth of goods to China each
year; but we never see Chinese yen or
any other coin from that country. But we
receive vast quantities Of tea, silk and fire.
crackers from China, in payment for what
we send into that country. We send cot
ton, wheat and silver, in the production of
which our labor earns from 81 to s. day.
In making tea or silk the Chinese work for
hye or ten cents day, yet each grows as
much tea In day as one of our laboreJs
could. That is, the Chinaman will work
ten days for US in tea raising, if we will
work one day for him in silver mining or
wheat growing. The protectionlst wishes
to stop this exchange of the products of
labor, by which we save nine days labor,
| and get as much tea with one
days. work as we would otherwise get
with ten. He is afraid we are
furnishing the pauper Chinese with
| work. He discourages the exchange by
high taxes on commerce with China; and
the Chinaman leaves his native shores
where he was content with few cents a
day and comes to America thus for the
first time entering into competition with
American labor.
As long as the Chinaman grows tea in
China, he does not compete with, but is
really a slave to, our workingmen. AS
soon as he gets to this country, he gives up
all his former occupations ana becomes q
direct competitor Of American laborers.
As long as we exchange products with
foreign paupers, they are our servants, and
give US two to one or in some cases ten to
one in labor value for what we give them.
Hence it is our policy to trade with them
and not starve the paupers into coming to
this country to become direct competitors
of our laboring classes.
The talk about sending our money fol
these products of pauper labor, is mere
stupidity. The exports of American coir
each year average about $4,000 600. Thu
imports of foreign coin in 1889 were 3d.
100000; the exports s16,ooo,OOo, the gair
being only 100000. These coins are
carried back and forth in peoples pockets
} and cut no figure in commercial transac
) tons. Yet last year the excess of export
from this country to Great Britain alon
was s261, 406, 706, for which we received n
English coin, but the products of othe
nations. The value of the foreign com
} merce Of this country last year was over
billion and half in dollars worth of goods
or four hundred times greater than tn
amount Of American coin exported; an
when the protectionist asks US to believ
that coin pays for foreign goods, he eithe
proves himself fool or believes his rea6
ers to be hopeless billiards.

WE ARE glad to know that Judge BEATTY
is en- route for Washington to meet the
charges of immortality which have been
preferred against him. There is not much
doubt of his ability to establish his inno-
cence; that is to say, there is aot much
doubt Of his ability to do this, unless he has
lived double life more successfully than
other men have been able to do in the west.
But we will think less Of Judge BEATTY if
he shall stop in this matter when he has
established his innocence and proven that
the accusations were malicious, the inven-
lions of cowardly and vindictive politicians
who would stoop to such despicable meth
DDS for defeating a candidate for office.
Judge BEATTY owes it to himself, to his
friends, and to the community in which he
resides, to hunt down his traducers and
bring them to the justice which they merit

WANE OF AN IDEAL.

And so the great actress, BERNHARDT,
has come down to the mere, paltry, cheap
method of advertising known to third-rate
players as mushroom poisoning. She has
had her sons fightduels,: has advertised that
her children were illegitimate, has pre-
tended to be crazy, has had her diamonds
stolen, and has resorted to a score of SINH
lar bright methods of attracting public
interest And the public has borne, with
remarkable patience, all her former de
vices for securing notoriety; but this last
venture of hers passes the limit of silent
forbearance, and makes the public weary
SARAH is evidently on the down grade.

TWO ARGUMENTS.

We think it worth while, as it costs but
slight effort, to notice two statements MADE
by the Tribune, which fairly represent the
argument Of the protectionist. The first
is:
Last year we made more iron than any nation
on earth This was made possible because of
the tariff.
Last year we raised more wheat than
any other nation, and there is practically
no tariff on wheat and there never has
been; we raised more corn, cotton and
many other products on which there is no
tariff; we mined more silver than any other
nation, and there is no tariff on silver; we
raised more cattle and horses than most
nations do, and there has been but slight
duty on either; we produced more gold
than any other county except Aus
tralia, and there is no tariff
on gold; and so on indes-
nitely. II no more follows that
we would not in the natural course of
events, produce more iron than any other
nation produces, than that we would not
produce more wheat, corn, silver and other
products, had they been taxed like iron has
been.
The fact is, that a writer who has no
more conception Of reasoning than to say
because two facts happen together that one
is the cause Of the other, is just the sort of
reasoner to draw such conclusions as these:
This country has less ain than England
has, and produces more silver, therefore
the heavy rainfall is the cause Of England's
small silver production.
Or, Siberia is cold country and it pro-
duces much platinum. The United States
is not cold country, therefore it cannot
produce platinum.
These conclusions are as valid as thai
concerning iron production.
But the Tribune knows very well that il
dares not let its readers, know this fact
that the tariff ION pig iron places COO
S6.72 per ton into the pocket of every do
nestle manufacturer of iron; and out o,
this s6.72 he pays in wages for the produc-
ton of the iron but $685., thus getting hi,
labor free of all charge and receiving
bonus of 1897 on each ton over and abov,
every cent he pays in wages. Yet no pro
tectionist has ever yet been brazen enough
to say that the tariff should pay all tn,
the wages paid here and abroad, and il
that case there would not be much to pay
This tariff pays all the wages and as mucl
more, which the manufacturer keeps bacl
from his employees instead of paying t
them the money the American people hav
taxed themselves to give to them.
Iron production in this country would g
right on without as with the tariff TIL
workmen would get as much in wages a
they now get; the output would be as grea
or greater; and the only difference woul
be that fewer men in Pennsylvania woul
be millionaires than is the case at present
The second is:

send away the money and the products to blu

THE POLITICIANS of Bingham county,
Idaho, are amusing themselves these days
and nights-hanging each other lin
efigy.'l Several. of such hangings have
already taken place; so many of them, in
fact, that straw and old clothes are ad
vancing in price So long as the gentlemen
confine themselves, in this sort of amuse-
ment, to effigies, we presume nobody will
complain, the amusement being of cheap
and harmless character; but too much
efigy hanging is liable to familiarize those
who practice it with the business until
they may want to try their hand at the real
thing. If our advice were asked, we would
say to the people up there, that after all it
is mighty small business to show disap-
proval of the course of individuals in the
way you are doing.

A Whetatono Found where 30 HAD Put

Abraham Lincoln was perhaps the
best man in the country in his day to
remember men and to place them wiih-
out hesitation in the environment where
he last saw them, says the Chicago
Herald.
When he was a comparatively young
man and a candidate for the Illinois
legislature he took dinner with q Sanga-
mon county farmer, and after the meal
the two stood AT the barnyard gate talk
ing and whiting, Lincoln's knife
needed sharpening aud the Yankee in
Him prompted him to sharpen it
He walked to tool box the farmer
had nailed just inside the wagon shed,
took from it u milestone, and came back
TO the great gate, where he stood again
and began sharpening his knife. Ono
post of the gate was very high, and rod
from the top supported the extended
weight of the gate.
A man came along the road in
wagon, going in the direction Lincoln
wanted to travel, and lie babe his host
good bye and cambered in the vehicle
intent, no doubt, on getting another
vote.
