ST LOUIS Republic: Somebody esti
mates that 100000 600 cfficial prayers
are offered every year in behalf of the
Prince of Wales. The reason they don't
help him more, probably. is that they are
uttered as matter of routine and lack
every element of earnest supplicGtion in
spired with faith. Probably not even
800. 900 600 Of earnest, unofficial prayers
a month would avail TO stop the republi'
can party in the rapid downward slide
upon which il was started BIZ unregen-
Grated politicians like Harrison and Ca
bot Lodge. and Reed and Mckinley. In
this world things sometimes get psst
praying for, and it looks nightly as if
that were the condition of the repu Ii

ABOUT CHEAP TIN PLATE.
Tho Extravacant Claims of Our Tin
Plate x4aIots.

Tho Extravacant Claims of Our Tin
Plate z4aIots.
1t is said that large tin plate plant is
to be established at Baltimore. In q
published report the president of the
company says:
-'From all that we have been able to
learn we have reached the conclusion
that tin plate can be made as cheaply in
the United States as in Wales, in France,
in Germany or in any other part of the
world, and as this country consumes
more of that article than all the outside
world does, there is every reason why
American capital, ingenuity and labor
should be employed in producing it,
This is important if true" The same
thing was said two years ago by W. c.
Cronemeyer. secretary of the so called
American Timed Plate association. He
said, 1T is fact, and we can prove it by
statistics, that they (tin plates can be
made here and sold with profit at pres
ent ruling prices" At that time prices
were very near the lowest point ever
reached.
If these tin plate zealots can do what
they say, II is high time that they set
about it. In the meantime they might
explain why they need that high Nc
Kinley tax if they can make tin plate as
cheaply here as in any other country.
But if these men are to carry out their
boast they will have to get their iron
or steel sheets, from which tin plate is
made, at much lower prices than our
protected sheet manufacturers have
been charging for them. The best tin
plate is now made from steel sheets, but
the average price of steel sheets for the
five years from 1886 to 1890 was 1.63
cents per pound higher here than i'm
ported tin plate before the duty is paid.
If they can now make these sheets so
cheaply that their finished tin plate can
be sold at profit at the foreign price,
the domestic sheet manufacturers must
be coming money at an enormous rate.
The prospective tin plate manufactur-
ers will be compelled, too, to use sheets of
domestic make, since Mckinley made a
large increase of duty in them. The old
duty was equal to "a per cent, while the
Mckinley duty is equal to 81 per cent.
If our experience in sheet steel manu-
featuring affords any means for judging
of costs and prices in tin plate manufac-
turing, it is certain that our tin plate
mines will not be able to turn out tin
plate at less than double the prices we
have been paying in Wales

of the far west. The balance of power
has gone west. Oregon played very i'm

ratio convention in Tacoma won't cause
the loss of a single vote in the east, while
it will be worth tens of thousands of votes

in voting for the party that honors the
west.

that the Capitals mortgage reports
are not worth the blank paper they
are written on, We have only to refer
to the repetition in another column OF
this same issue, of the statement that
appeared in it's columns last fall
that there had been but two mort
gage foreclosures in Shawnee county
in the preceding six months. We
published at the time q transcript
from the court docket, prepared by a
competent attorney, showing over
two hundred foreclosures within the
time specified, and giving the num-
ber of each case as it appears, and as
it may be seen to-day upon that
docket. We also procured at that
time statements from other counties
showing the abolute falsehood of
the Capitals reports. We do not
care to attempt to satisfy the COM
piler of such statistics. There could
be no testimony that would induce
the Capital to acknowledge the true
condition of the people OF this Coun-
try. 1t already calls in question the
official figures Of the census depart
ment. There is one circumstance,
however, that is beyond its influence.
The people knoav their condition, and
all the bowling the plutocratic press
can do, will not satisfy them that it is
different from what they know it to
be. The exalted and refined language
of the Capital in the above clipping
shows who is ratified over this ques-
tion.

WHY THE DIFFERENCE?

Why should the political papers be so ever
laStngly intOlerant of the per cent. land scheme
favored by millions Of the farmers In the south
and west to enable them to held on to the land
they already OWL; while many Of them are loud
In their praises of RalfOur's land act now be-
fore the British Parliament and supported by the
whole Conservative party, though 1t provides
for the loan of money by the English govern
ment to Irish tenant farmers for series OF
years at per cent interest to allow them to
buy the land they now cultivate? Shall British
Tories ,be more liberal than American Demo
Gratis or Republicans? Are American farmers
who own their own land less responsible than
Irish tenants ambitious to own theirs? The Sc
curity is to be the same in both cases, and per
cent. is only tentative rate, which American
farmers would doubtless willingly raise to per
cent. The Rural NelD- Yorker cannot altogether
approve of this land scheme, to which 1t sees
many grave objections; but neither can 1t ap-
prove of the outrageous vltuperatlOn Of It,.
Rural NelO- YORKER.
The sympathies of the political
papers" are aroused in behalf of the
Irish tensntry, and the Jews in Rus
sis, and suffering humanity in gen
eral in distant lands; but the poor
and the unfortunate victims of the
cupidity of Shylocks in their own
country have no rights that entitle
them to respect. The American
farmer is of far less consequence in
the eyes of these political papers
than the Irish tenant. The reason is
APPARENT. They are subsidised by the
proceeds of this robbery of American
citizens, and any abridgment of that
robbery would be an abridgment OF
their profits.
