M,DONALD.s TARIFF VIEWS.

a high tariff editor says that ! hat
sterling and representative DemUc rat,
the late JOSEPH Z. MCDONALD, "aHS avs
favored the protection of American in
AApends upon wrl% no
meant by 1.-THE protection u ------.-"n
industries" Mr.. MCDONALD wa al
ways opposed to the principles of Caxa-
ton as embodied in Republican tariff
legislation. His position was cl early
defined in an address made few years
ago before a gathering Of Demot ratio
editors in Indiana. He said:
mo political party in this count y has
ever advocated unconditional free trade.
No such issue has ever entered our 20 litical
contests. The real issue is shall we have
a tariff for revenue, with Incidental pro
lection. or shall we have tariff TO pro
lection with revenue as au incidenti The
Democratic party has always favor a the
former proposition The Repu )lican
party has made itself the champion 4 the
latter. and if the present Onerous am 1 I'M
lust tariff is maintained it will be Tn rough
the efforts of the Republican party, lud in
the interest of capital, and in viola Ion OF
the Constitution"
Mr.. MCDONALD was lifelong advo-
cate of a tariff for revenue with Incl
dental protection. He was unwav aring
in his position. Regarding this and all
other public questions he always had
the courage Of his convictions.
THE Fourteenth Annual Commence
ment of the Public Schools Of Wheeling,
held at the Opera House last evening,
was generally and deservedly pro-
nounced one OF the most successful in
their history. 1t was pleasing sight
the handsome and intelligent young
faces on the stage presented. The
sweet girl graduates, in their imuiacu-
late and airy white costumes, were ir-
resistable. Now, these young men and
women, or those of them who do not
intend to continue their education in
the higher branches, must lay as de
book and pen and wrestle with world
that will be hard and stern, or the re-
verse, as they make it by their lives.
HoN. J. w. ST. CLAIR, of West Vir-
GINA, is the hero Of the hour in Worlds
Fair circles. As will be seen from an
article on another page he neatly
stopped the little game of the Chicago
CLIQUE who are trying TO run she
Fair as Chicago side show.
The hustling Chicagoans quietly at
tempted TO take the management OF
the affair out Of the hands OF
the National Commission entirely, and
run it in the interest of Chicago alone.
They had rugged up magnificent office,
filed it with valuable stationery and
were about to take grand junketing
tour to Europe, when the National Com
mission got wind of it, and through Mr.,
ST. CLAIR, sat down on it hard. The
Office is now abandoned, the junketing
tour is off, and the National Commission
reigns supreme.

TWO OF A KIND.

Caraway last week found what he
called ideal editorial from the pen OF
"Whoop" Tomlinson, the fre-alarm.
editorial writer of the Topeka
Democrat, and as the said editorial IS
a rambling. discOnnected,v itrolic TRADE
of abuse of the people whom Caraway
hates the most-the alliance people-lt
Just suited the one-idead editor OF the
Register and he republished it. The
wonder is that he gave it the proper
credit and quoted it correctly.
Col. "Whoop' Tomlinson, and his
patron saint, David B. Hill, did all in
their power for the defeat of Grover
Cleveland, and it is therefore not at all
strange that Caraway loves them SO
well. He is of the class of politicians
who are never slow to help to the front
a traitor IN the opposing camp. He
would like very much to see such men
as TomlinsOn, "A stakeholder in the Santa
Fe road, porteqee of David B. Hill and
therefore an agent of the gold bugs of
New York, placed in the lead of Kan
sas democracy; therefore his willing
ness to reproduce the editorial referred
to.
There are many things in the Demo
crat editorial copied by Caraway tina,
are pointed and pertinent; but as d
whole it is injudlcious, unwise and un-
reasonable, and has not the elements
of true democracy.

Editor of DEMOCRAT.
During the absence of various of Claf-
Inns citizens who were counting in Great
Bend last week, quite an epidemic of
general disability broke out among our
people, and the drug store is said to
have done a good affidavit prescription
business. Can it be that the inability
of the unfortunate ones to get their
usual supply of chop tea" and 'shorts'
resulted in the aforesaid epidemic? If
such is the case it would be great
financial move for our worthy druggist
to take steps toward the adjustment OF
the chop tea and shorts restaurants.
1t is true, such move would encourage
general disability epidemic, and teach
men to forget the meaning of an oath;
but it would be more in accordance with
the statutes laid down by the republican
law-manglers of Kansas.
Truly Yours,
Mr.. WELLMAN.

CARAwAY continues in an effort to
make his paper half way readable by
inserting clippings from the DEMO
Graf. Of course we do not object to
thus assisting him, but we would like
to have our articles correctly repro
duced, if he could manage some way to
be honest and honorable in doing so.
He has been in the business whole
year and ought to have learned by this
time that it is as bad for him to lie
about and misrepresent political OPP
ponent through the columns of his
paper, even though its influence be a
minus quantity, as for him to do the
same thing on the stump or in the eau
Gus or convention. The truth always
sounds the best, neighbor. Try being
truthful, aud just; try it for change,
and see if you will feel better. We
know you will gain the respect of your
readers, even though from force of
habit and evil associations you fail in
the attempt at political honesty. Quit
braying about the virtues you say you
possess and exhibit some of them in
your deeds and actions. Quit making
such an Internal ass of yourself and try
and be honorable in politics.
