IN THE CASE OF CAL RRycE

From the Kansas City. Mo-. Journal.
The Ohio republicans, who ara now
in power in all branches of the state
government. are discussing the possi-
bility OF relieving the state of a ia.
grant piece of Misrepresentation, who
draws the salary OF senator from the
Buckeye state, but whose residence is
in New York. And the name of thie
Legislative anomaly is Calvin Brice.
There are many good legal reasons
for unseating Mr.. Brice, and the fact
that be does not represent his con-
stituents and gives no attention to
their wishes affords good political
reasons for ousting him. The people
OF Ohio will love the republicans for
it, and stand by them in their action.
The election Of Brice was q crime;
his official career is q taunt at American
institutions, and his removal at the
hands of any party will be a public
blessing.
Ex-Governor Foraker as his successor
will fulfill the ends of justice. Give
a good man q useful position, and
make Ohio the best-equipped state in
the United States senate. This is the
voice OF the people. Republicans should
heed it.

FIRST OF ALL DEMOCRATS,

From the Charleston News and Courier.
With the exception of Colonel Eli.
con s. Keitt, all of the alliance leaders
in this state who have exhibited weak
ness for the third party movement have
pledged their sacred honor to stand BY
the regular democratic nominations. II
Mr.. Cleveland shall be nominated they
will support him and work for him to
the end. There is not southern state,
unless it be North Carolina-and we
are not willing to believe that even Col.
Folks own state is willing to turn back
on the party-that will not vote for the
democratic candidate for president,
whoever he may be. The alliance has
met with overwhelming defeat in MISS
issippi. In Tennessee the alliance has
permitted it's charter to die of inanition.
In South Carolina the order is not
holding it's own. In Florida there are
evidence of disintegration. In all the
southern states the alliance are first OF
all democrats.

PARTISAN JOURNALISM.

The ALLAH 20 Advocate of Topeka, be-
ing to a greater degree partisan jour.
nal than any other publication in Kan
sas, as itself will not have the cheek to
dispute, confesses that the character of
partisan journalism is interruptions,
using disreputsble methods to deceive,
with persistent effort. 1t further calls
partisan journals, of course including
itself. clustering and growing political
roosters, having polluted carcasses,
making frantic efforts, being corrupt,
to deceive.
All these ejaculative phrases appear
in one leading editorial in the Advocate,
and, taken as confessed description of
its own character as partisan journal,
will not be disputed, for it is truthful to
that extent.
But that this mud Singing can be
made to stick to partisan journals
Kansas generally, or thst they wi
quietly lie still for it to be rubbed in,
not likely.

PROTECTION.

H. e..,,ra. a Safe Market. Steady
work and Low Prices For Goods.
From the Cleveland Leader.
Cheapness of production must depend
almost entirely upon the continuous
and regular employment OF the means
Of production. The manager OF Mass.
achusetts cotton factory has said that
With a so, 600 spindle mill, running con-
tinuously, be would produce 17,5OO,OOO
Yards of print clcth per year at 21-lOO
cents per yard. Running nine months
in the year, he would produce l3,l24,-
475 wards, at cost of 8 73-1OO cents
per ward. In other words, it costs one.
half cent more per yard to run three
quarters time than to run full time.
Protection secured the steady patron
age of 65, 10000 people and thus ena-
bIed the works to run continuously.
thereby causing saving in price OF
one half cent per yard and cheapening
of the product to customers. 80 with
the large establishments where boots
and shoes are made by machinery. The
labor cost of women's shoes per pair in
this country is 25 cents against "a cents
for the same English chloe; of mems
shoes the labor cost Is 33 cents for
American against so cents for English.
In dyeing yarn an American establish
ment pays 50 per day wages and pro-
duces 100 pounds of yarn for 40 cents.
A Belgium establishment, with labor at
80 cents per day, produces 100 pounds
at labor cost of $1.25.
The free trade country has no sure
market to depend upon. and cannot,
therefore, produce continually and as
cheaply as a protected country. Amer
leans can produce many articles cheaper
than Europeans, because the unfailing
market offered by our people enables
them to prepare for producing on a
large scale with perfect assurance OF
a demand for all they can supply.

SENATOR PLUMB's ESTIMATES.

WASHINGTON, d. CA reporter OF
the Globe Democrat called on Senator
Plumb, who said:
81 am going home to-day, not to re-
turn until the first Monday in Decem-
Der. I only came here to arrange for
quarters during the session"
lis the political situation in Kansas
favorable to the republicans?'
The senator replied with emphasis:
Undoubtedly. The result shows that
there is no doubt whatever about the
position of Kansas next year. I do not
mean to say or to imply that the farm
ers' alliance party has disappeared, but
the recent election makes it quite ap-
parent that large majority Of the peo-
pie Of Kansas are opposed to third party
action and also opposed to the alleged
principles upon which it was sought to
found such action.
1.-THE conservative, sensible farmers
Of Kansas recognize that the permanent
public opinion of the country can best
find expression through the republican
party, and will be mainly found in its
ranks hereafter as heretofore. It is pos
sible that the entire opposition may
unite on the electoral ticket, but in any
event the presidential vote of Kansas
will be given to whoever the republi-
cans nominate. The party is better Or
ganized than ever heretofore, and it's
victories in the future will be the result
Of intelligent organization as we'll as
sincere conviction"
REPUBLICAN SUCCESS ASSURED.
"What do you think about the out
look for next year,"
Il have no reason to change the opin.
ion which I expressed to you last spring
to the effect that the chances were with
the republicans. During the last cam.
paign, where national issues were pre-
sented, the result was favorable. The
campaign of next year will be decided
on national issues alone.
1.-THE republicans will have the advan.
tage of being right upon these issues;
of having given to the country during
the last four years an administration of
a practical and useful character, not OK.
ceeded in its entire history. and it is
undoubtedly as true now as heretofore
that upon national affairs the repnbli-
can party has a fair majority in the
country. The chances for success will
also. no doubt, be augmented by the &C.
ton of the next house of represen-
tatives.
The American people are both enter
prising and conservative. They want
the best possible opportunity to labor
with head and with bands, and equally
good security that they will be permit
ted to retain the results of their labor.
The democratic party is naturally de-
structive.
IF the new house of representatives
does anything of kind calculated to
threaten investments, and to disturb the
existing and natural order of business,
it will result that majority OF the peo-
Pile will inevitably turn to the republic
can party, which means development
and not destruction.

SINGULAR CONDUCT OF THE
FREE TRADERS,
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
When the reciprocity plan and pro-
gramme were put forth by Mr.. Blaine.
tho free traders very generally hailed
the new policy with shouts Of triumph.
They pretended to find in it evidence
that the secretary OF state was coming
over to their ground, and was already
about half way to free trade.
Why is it, then, that every apparent
ly successful move IN the direction
pointed out by Mr.. Blaine is misrepre-
sented and ridiculed by the free trade
organs, while every seeming rebuff OF
difficulty in the way of extending Amer
lean trade is magnified and dwelt upon
with evident JOY by these same enemies
of the protective tariff!

THE QUESTION OF SILVER.

The New York Chamber OF Commerce
has just held it's 123d annual dinner
Hon. Charles Foster was introduced
and he made the speech of the evening.
His subject was: ITO MAINTAIN the par
ity between gold and silver is the fixed
policy of the government" Mr.. Foster
spoke substantially as follows:
Prior to 1880 Wa had many sound
thinking men who believed that our
financial structure should be based up.
on gold alone. It is now agreed on all
sides that gold alone furnishes too mar
row basis. Fifteen years ago the peo-
pie of the east INDUCED in prophecy as
to The evil that would follow such q
large coinage of silver dollars. The
great financiers of the country held that
parity could not be maintained, even
with smaller coin. Notwithstanding
the doleful predictions, We have coined
over $500, 100000 and purchased about
$70,00O.000 worth of silver bullion at a
gold value and paid for it by the issue
of about $70,000,0OO of new treasury
notes, and yet parity is maintained; so
now, men whose intelligence and pa
triotism cannot be questioned and whose
purposes are most exalted, are moved
to indulge 10 gloomy forbodings over
the present outlook, and propose to re-
peal the present law authorizing the
purchase OF 100000 ounces of silver
per month, to be paid in new treasury
notes. The question to consider is now,
what policy is attainable Remembering
all the time that the ideal is impossible J.
In my opinion, with all Of our power,
We could not maintain parity OF the two
metals il the policy OF free coinage Of
silver prevailed. I am firmly OF the
opinion that the parity Of the two
metals can be maintained under the
present policy. We produce in this
country about $50, 600 900 OF gold an.
nually. The present indications are
that the balance OF the trade with Tor
eign nations for the next two years. aod
for q longer period il the present tariff
laws are maintained, will require gold
shipments to Us to pay tho balances in
our favor. Under the present policy W
buy 100000 ounces Of silver every
month. paying for this purchase it
value in new treasury notes. Under
such conditions the work OF maintain
ing parity will not require any extraor.
binary exercise Of power or b . STRAIN
upon the resources OF tho country
Under free coinage silver would take
tho place of gold in settling balances
II the price of silver was advanced from
81 to sl.29 per ounce, all silver fol
coinage would be attracted to this
country. To maintain parity under
such conditions would be task requir-
ing more than our immense resources
and exercise of unusual power to the
last degree could supply. But with
4,500,0 900 ounces of silver only pei
month, purchased at its gold value. the
task would be easier. In nv opinion,
gentlemen, the especial question for
YOU to consider is, which OF theee two

From the Nebraska State journal.

America than to see the United States

THE NEGLECTED FARMER.

From the Kansas CITY. Mo-. Journal.
In a somewhat lengthy report sent
out BY tho Associated Press, the head
Of tho national bureau of agriculture
tells tho people what he has done for
them during the year just past. Briefly
put, the American farmer is shown how
much he has raised, in aggregate and
in detail; he 10 told OF tho advantages
that have been secured for him BY the
agricultural department in the way OF
securing wider and more remunerative
markets; how much has been gained by
these added markets; how various dis
eases among cattle have been prevented
from spreading; how tho f1esh of dis
eased animals is kept out Of the mar.
ksts, and how food adulteration has
been restrained.
This, in brief. IL the work that has
been done. The American farmer who
says that this has not been directly
beneficial to him. indicates q perverse
spirit or IN ignorance Of facts And vet
it lie very frequently heard in seasons
Of hard times ard bad crops, that the
government-or moro commonly the
republican party-has done nothing for
the farmer; that the legislation has all
been in favor of the rich manufacturer,
ard that the poor toiler in the field is
forgotten. Perhaps 1t is forgetting the
poor farmer to widen the market for his
hogs by $26, 600, 600 in ono year; per.
haps il is neglscting the cattle raiser to
stamp out by quarantine disease
among CATTLE which cost him millions
every season; perhaps it i true that

PREPARING FOR THE RUSH.
The Southern Express Company to
Open q Branoh Office.

The Southern Express Company to
Open a Branch ONCE.
The Southern Express Company is pre-
pairing for the holiday rush. Tomorrow a
distributing Office will be opened at No. 1876
Broughton street, in Lowell new building,
next to the Chatham Furniture Company,
until after Jan. l. A force OF clerks will be
transferred from the main office, and all
freight will be distributed from the Brough-
ton street branch office until after the hOli-
dav season.
The main office will be devoted during
that time entirely TO receiving aud shipping
freights The new plan will greatly facili-
tate the business of the company during the
rush season.
Ladies will be accommodated at a ooun-
ter which will be set aside for their exclus-
i've use. It Is the express companys desire
to give good service, and everything will
be done TO accommodate the public. Agent
Cooper asks that shipments be made In the
morning, because il everybody sending out
Christmas goods waits until afternoon a
great deal Of Inconvenience will probably
result, as the crowd will be almost too
great for the receiving clerks. He asks per-
sons not to pack preserves or anything oon>
tanned in glass or jars with silk dresses or
other goods of the kind
Shippers should address small packages
with pen and ink and larger packages with
brush and ink. Agent Cooper advises
against the use Of parchment tags only be-
cause they are liable to come off packages
and boxes. All shipments destined to
prominent points should be marked with
the local address of the consignee. The
name Of the shipper should also appear on
each shipment ON the lower left hand corner
so as TO assist in tracing If necessary. For
example: "F J. smith, 126 Broadway,
New York. From G. w. Peters, Savan-
nah, Ga"
AS great many oranges are shipped
north during the holidays the agent gives a
few instructions on that particular class Of
freight: Standard boxes should invariably
be addressed on the end. and never on the
side. All old marks should be obliterated
from boxes to prevent them from going
estray. IL these details are not looked after,
be said, the people of the north whom
friends In this section wish to treat to
southern winter fruit may never get them.
