TEN MONTHS OF MCKINLEY PRICES.

The Mckinley tariff law went
into effect ten months ago August
8. There were predictions at the
time by free trade and Mugwump
papers that stagnation of bust
ness and trade would follow. The
conspiracy against prosperity
was begun to keep off improve
ment IN business. In large lines
OF goods prices were raised with
out reason, theexcuse being given
that the increase was due to the
Mckinley bill. 1t was declared
that no new industries would
spring up in this country and that
old industries would not be slim.

have elapsed since these predic-
tons were made have utterly dis
proved each and every one of
them. Trade and commerce have
followed the even tenor of their
courses. Thecountry is generally

TIE GRIND AMY.

The spectacle last week at De
troit could have been parallclcc
i'll no other country. The Crane
Army of the Republic is n unique
organization. 1t is the living
representative of American valor
and discipline 1t stands, in a
peculiar sense, for the great prin-
cip!es of fraternity and mutual
help. Other lands have mus
tered armies hardly less power,
tul than the one that ccmcntcd
The Union with its own blood.
No other land ever saw such a
mighty array of trained sol
dicrs transform themselves swift
~, as II by magic, into peaceful
citizens; no other host of dis
banded veterans ever rC0rgan-
lied into so vast and bcnehccnt
Il brotherhood as the one whose
delega eS celebrated The silver iu-
blIee of their order in loyal De
trOit.
The address Of General Neazcv
gave evidence of the scope of the
orders relief operations. In the
last twenty years the Grand
Army has paid 50 100000 to
distressed comrades and their
families In the past wear it has
paid out for this purpose the
sum of $685. 99.35. The Won
ans Relief Corps, its worthy
auxiliary, has expended $152,
1000 for the same work in the
past twelve months. The first
post of the Grand Army was or
gained with twelve members at
Decatur, ILL.,, i'll 1866. To-day
the order has nearly 800 posts
and 100000 members. It's
growth has been as phenomenal
as its prosperity. Notwith
standing the steadily lengthen-
ing death roll among the veter-
ans of the civil war, the member
ship of the Grand Army has con
stantly increased.
The value Of the work it has &C |
complished in stimulating pa |
trlotism and keeping alive mem |
cries of soldierly heroism and
sacrifice cannot be computed in
figures. The very existence of
the Grand Army is magnificent
object lesson to American young
men. The sight Of the gray |
headed host that marched |
through Detroit under their tat
tered flags was Il significant re-
minder to the younger genera
ton that our national greatness
had been made secure only at the
cost OF a hundred bloody battles.
1t is the fashion in certain parti-
san journals to sneer more orlcss
at the Union veterans
and the cause they fought for.
There are some who apparently
think that the old, manly, sim
pie creed of patriotic devotion to
the nation is something that
America has outgrown. Against
such ignoble beliefs the Grand
Army, with its traditions and
its principles, is a standing and
powerful protest. The conta-
gious patriotism of it's members
makes it a mighty force for the
upbuilding of the sentiment of
national unity.

Ok nonnds by the test. These little
cows are a wonder TO any one. We
were next shown the Holstiens, They
are a good lot of cows, and great milk
ers, one going as high as 10000 or l7,OOo
pounds year. After feasting our eyes
as long as our time would permit
we were then taken to the milk
room. where the milk is brought
from the stable here we also find every
thing in No. l order; everything neat
and clean, no odor OF any kind, but all
clean and sweet. Here we had chance
to test the quality OF the milk the w.
D. Co. get from this farm, and 1t was
indeed delicious in every respect. Your
citizens need not fear OF getting poor,
sloppy stuff from this place, but pure,
healthy milk. Our time having ex-
pired and being nearly train time, we
babe our host good bye, and giving
one more glance al the fine herd we
wended our way to the station, and on
our way we see the corn that is 10 be cut
and put in the silos it is simply immense
such stocks and so high, 12xl5 feet,
would not pretend 10 say how much one
acre will produce. Mr.. Giffen expects
TO fill his three silos and says that In
this way he can double the keeping ca
pacity of his farm, the feed going so
much farther than II fed in any other
way. Now from what we see on this
farm and the success with which it is
handled, why do not more OF our farm
ers go into this business, for surely this
one pays, why not more Of them do so?
The cream and butter business will not
be overdcne soon, that is good gilt-edge
butter and No. l cream will always find
ready sale. And now we hope your
citizens will look favorable upon and
encourage all such enterprises as the
above and TO see the workings and the
good stock that are in this herd, all
should visit the farm where Mr.. Gitlen
and his genial foreman, Mr.. Wilson,
will bid all welcome. RAMBLER. -

WE'LL. HERE'S A GO.
The Remarkable Demand Made by n
Kansas Farmers Aliiauce Club.

Kansas Farmers Alliance Club.
TOPEKA, KAs., August s.-The most
remarkable set of resolutions which
the Alliance has yet sprung on the pub
lie comes from Elk county. Several
whereases tell the condition OF the peo-
pie, and announce the loan companies
and banks have refused to loan any
more money in Kansas.
Continuing the resolutions say that
where we have made a good crop the
unjust hand of monopoly has been so
well played as to make ii impossible for
us TO sell the surplus for more than the
cost of production, so that we are still
left unable to pay our mortgages. Now,
therefore be it
RESOLVED, That we ask the President
of the L. A. and /. o., Of Kansas, to
Immediately call convention OF the
people for the purpose OF petitioning
the President OF the United States to
Immediately assemble Congress for the
purpose Of passing a law whereby the
United States eau issue legal tender
treasury notes to the amount needed,
and loan to the people above mentioned
at low rate OF interest, with the priv
ilege of paying small annual INSTALL
ments on the principal until the whole
is paid, and that the Government shall
be secured by the land above mentioned,
thus relieving the grasp or the money
power OF the world, and give them a
chance to save their homes.
