Kansas papcr: The Tennessee Leg
islature has enacted law pensioning
Confederate soldiers by the State, at
the rate of from So to $25 apiece. The
money is to be raised by taxation upon
all the property in the state, including
that of Northern men, who have gone
there with their capital to develop the
country. There is no use talking-if
a Northern man wants to go to the
South to live, he must expect to be
"assimilated," or get out This is what
a political union between the South
and West would do for the West.
The Heron Lake News remarks: The
resolution to expel j. w. Arctander
from the floor of the senate brought
Donnelly to his feet, who said Arctan-
der was there in the interest of the
people, that he was trying to get a
bill through increasing employers La
bility. This is refreshing. Arctander
is lawyer whose practice is chiefly
that of prosecuting employers in the
interest of employees. One case was
cited to us where he got $4,000 from
one company in a damage suit; he took
$1,000 and generously gave his client
$1,000. Arctander's labors in behalf
of the people are on par with Don
nelly's.
Duluth Daily News There is an un-
usual howl at present in favor of re-
stricting immigration, and it is quite
likely that at least score of states
men anxious to catch the popular
hroozo will be intr0dncine bills for that
purpose in the next session of congress.
There is very little prospect, however,
that any radical restrictive immigration
law will be adopted. Itwould be STEP
ping on the toes of a great many persons
who are pecun;arily interested in bring
ing foreigners over to this country, to
wit: the steam ship ticket agents.
There are enough of them throughout
the country, together with the railroad
companies, to choke off any bill of that
kind.
Winona Republican. From March,
1887, under Grover Cleveland's adj
ministration, the national debt was re-
duced $141, 100000. From March,
1889, to March 1891, under Benjaman
Harrison's administration, the national
debt was reduced 1926, 100000. When
it is inquired, "what has become of the
surplus7" tie application of more than
quarter of a billion dollars, under
Secretaries Window and Foster, to the
purchase and cancellation of United
States bonds, furnishes a full reply
Mortified News: 1t is really anus
ing to see the antics of the alliance
members of the late legislature. They
have already issued a manifesto in
which they try very hard to explain
their actions. It is to be regretted
that party so young and beautiful
should begin to apologize early in it's
career for it's actions. The manifesto
fails to say anything in regard to the
increased Legislative expenses, the use
less increase of clerical force, and the
back pay resolution, and a number OF
other things that contributed to make
large bill of unnecessary expense
In their greed for office the combine
members seemed to forget what they
were elected for. It will take a great
many more manifestoes to make the
people believe that the combination
was not guilty of shameful waste and
expenditure of public moneys.
Faribault Republican: The bill
which was passed in the house making
eight hours the limit of a days labor
was defeated in the senate. The result
shows the futility of attempting to eff
feet combination between the Labor
Union and the Farmers Alliance or
CARNATIONS upon common platform
The practical effect of the adoption o.
such a law must be to place premium
upon day labor in the villages and ci
ties over labor in other departments
The workman upon the farm will moi
be contented if he is required to put il
from ten to sixteen hours day for NJ
greater compensation than he woulc
receive for an eight hour day in public
work. The inevitable result of thu
passage of such a law must be to es
tablish eight hours as the limit of {
days work in the country as well as ii
the city, with the same compensation
as is now paid for ten hours. There il
great complaint now that it is i'm
possible to procure laborers in sufh
Gent numbers to perform the neces
sary work upon the farms, and tn,
difficulty would be greatly increased
