When Cleveland was President.
only three years ago, the govern
ment was SO honestly, economically
and intelligently administered that
bonds were called in and paid off
before they were due. Now, under
Harrison announcement is made
that there is no money with which
to pay the next lot of bonds falling
due, and they must be refunded, or
the date of payment extended.
Three years ago there was a sur
plus of more than one hundred mill
ion dollars lying idle in the treasury,
and it was accumulating at the rate
of eight millions month. Now
the treasury is empty and there is
no money with which current APP
preparations can be paid.
The question then is with the
people, whether they prefer riotous
extravaganza and rascally waste of
public funds, involving hard times,
increased taxes and certain bank
ruptcy, or whether they prefer
honesty, economy and prosperity.

The Law Strangles the Poor to Fattcn
The Rich.

The Union Pacific Railroad Com
pany and g. p. Huntington, who
controls the California Central Rail-
road Company, are using all their
efforts, agents, attorneys, lackeys,
sneezers, teasers, hirelings and ad-
juncts to influence the people and
the political combination now form
ing and administration not to fore
close on the Government mortgages
held against the above named roads.
AT the same time, when these roads
have n note, claim or mortgage due
from some poor devil of farmer
who was tempted to go West and
buy lands that had been given to
these roads, they call on agents and
officers of the law to rush in and
seize the property of the farmer,
hold him by the ears, heels or elbow
and yank the stuffing from him as
a young billy goat butts the last drop
OF milk from its thin bodied, sore
bellied mother. Thus the law nails
every small debtor to post or to
tree, as Jesus was nailed to cross,
then with clubs pound him over the
head; with legal lances pierce his
body; in stolen silver ware catch the
blood of the crucified farmer and
offer it to the dogs of demagogery,
who engage in politics as horse
thief engages in his chosen occupa.
tion-to steal and ride for pastures
new.
The People-well, the remedy is
with them and them only. They
have the power to unite and elect a
Congress to make new laws and
honest men to administer them, and
some of these days will see their
way to do it.-Adrance Thought.

During the last four years of
Democratic administration the
national debt was reduced 1888, OOO,-
600 and besides this surplus of
over s6O,OOO,OOO was left in the
United States treasury. During
two years of Republican rule the
expenditures of the government
have been increased over S17S, OOO,-
600, being in the aggregate over
81 900, 200, 900. To reach this enor-
nous sum the s6O,OOO,OO0 surplus
has been dissipated, the entire in
come of the government has been
squandered and the faith of the
nation has been pledged to meet a
large deficit in order to get sufi-
cient money to pay for the two
years of Republican extravaganza.
All kinds of extravaganza schemes
have been resorted to in order to
loot the United States treasury.

Youathless PulIins, of Rockcastle,

OF q public document nearly one

Assembly OF Virginia of public and

The imprint shows that it was

that the English style of literature

ences are unique at the present day.

Referring to the great boom given
to home industries, and the wisdom
of patronizing them, it is a conci-

stir up talk, that Andrew Carnegie,

than any other living Ameir-
can has just imported 100
tons, 100000 pounds of machinery
from Great Britain to go into his
new mills in Pennsylvania. And

The finding of the grand jury in
the New Orleans lynching case is
clearly one of common sense, and
will be received as such by most
people; The facts set forth in the
finding are substantially the same
as already published in the news
papers. The jury holds that the
killing of the Malta assassins was
the act of the people of New Orleans
and not of a few lawless men.
Thousands of people were engaged
in the lynching, and as it would be
impossible to indict all, the intima-
ton is that it would be manifestly
wrong to attempt to hold a few for
the deed. 1t is also shown that
there is an organized band of assass-
ms in New Orleans, despite all
claims to the contrary. The state
ment is also made, as result of the
investigation, that of the IL Italians
lynched eight were full-fiedged
american citizens and one had re.
nounced- his allegiance to Italy.
Thus only two were Italian subjects.
The grand jury's report doubtless
will furnish. material for renewed
DIPLOMATIC correspondence, and Ru-
dini,s howl for justice will be heard

that the young men of the entire

ders of the republican party are now

Public men who loose their heads
and talk "slush" to reporters have
no right to complain if the reporter
prints what they say to him. 1t is
his business to report, and to re-
port correctly what he hears, and it
is an exception to find a reporter
who wiIfully misrepresents, and no
reputable Newspaper will knowingly
give him employment.

the surplus money in the United
States Tresury, whore it belonged,
because there was no honest or
legitimate way of getting it out.
Republicans found a way, but one
of questionable honesty. If taxa
ton were placed on an equitable
basis there would be no question OF
a surplus; money would be left in
the pockets of the people, where it
belongs.

A. B. Farquhar & Co., the great
manufacturers of agricultural impIe-
ments at York, Pa, one of the lar
gest concerns in the world, and per-
haps the largest exporters of plows
and similar tools in the United
States, writes that their goods are
sold in South America at 5 to 10 per
cent. less than in this country, and
if it were not for the tariff ON raw
materials they say they could sell
implements and machinery consid-
erably cheaper TO the American
farmer"
The letter is concluded with the
following paragraph, bearing the
signature of A. B. Farquhar himself,
and it is one that every farmer
should commit to memory, as it
embraces t4e very sum and sub.
stance, the essence and the truth
of the protective tariff: "As / have
several times had occasion TO OBJ
serve the manufacturer who is able
to extort his goods can have no use
for protection except to enable him
to export more money from home
purchasers than he is able to get
from those abroad"
Through their advertisement and
their goods A. B. Farquhar s. Co.
are well known in this section of
the country, and the mails are FREQ
to all alike, and anyone doubling
the truth of the foregoing can by
inclosing a stamp to the firm
receive enlightenment.-E

Better Times for Farmers.

ShepherdStown Register.
For several years the farmer has
had u hard time of it, as the price of
farm products has been so low that
it has been hard matter for him TO
make both ends meet even in rich
farming sections, while in poorer
sections starvation has stared him in
the face. All kinds of business,
however, has its ups and downs,
and the business of the farmer has
been at low ebb long enough, and
n change for the better, must, as a
law of business, come, and we be-
lieve il has come with this year and
come to stay, for ut least as many
years as the time of overproduction
and poor prices has prevailed.
Every man who has made the ques-
ton study says that flush times
for the farmers have arrived with
the year 1891 and that the period of
citation will last. 1t is earnestly
hoped that the foresight of the wise
men who have thus predicted will
come true, for nothing seems to 90
right when farm products are drag
on the markets of the world. Many
farmers having become disguised,
at the prevailing prices of farm pro-
ducts, sold their farms and engaged
in other business, some of whom will
make success and many others
will not, though we believe that the
farmer who has weathcrcd the storm
of low prices and stuck it out will
come out best in the end. All signs
point to this year as most profita-
BILE one for the farmer.
