TARIFF TALK.
TO the RdItor o. TnR ApyocArE.

ASIue the mass OF prOEeCuOnl9L ana GarlM
reform fiction and dross, we do not throw
into the refuse pile the few existing
grains Of pure gold or solid facts.
II would also be well for US, when we
find assumed reform writer's, the burden
Of whose song is continually protection
or tariff reform, to carefully examine
beneath the sleeps clothing OF reform
for revealed spot Of the skin of the
Democratic tiger or the prOtruding trunk
Of the Republican elephant. Nothing
would better please the plutocratlc twins
than to see the reform press industriously
engaged In a bitter and Jealous discus
sion of the tariff question. Every device
known to adroit and unscrupulOus politi-
clans will be brought into play to force
the people to fight out the coming cam
paign upon the single Issue OF the tariff,
to the exclusion Of the paramount eco
nomlc issues Of fnace, land and trans
pOrtation.
So far as the tariff Is concerned, we
must bear In mind the fact that while
some manufacturing concerns, members
of trusts and combines, seem to be max
ing abnormally large profits, the sugar
trust, with free sugar, continues TO come
to the front with monthly profits ofsome-
thing like $1,0O000O; while the window
glass importers trust chooses rather to
make money by combination, instead Of
competition with the American manu-
facturer. The potent fact must not be
lost sight of that hundreds of manufac-
turing industries are annually driven to
the wall, and that the invariable reasons
given for their failure are scarcity Of
money and ruinous rates Of interest. Free
trade has It's most consistent and valua.
BILE advocates In the Alliance men, who
claim that before we can have cheap
goods we must have cheap money, and
that before we can reap the benefits Of
free trade, we must not only invent some
plan to crush out combination and trusts,
but must also put our manufacturers
upon an equal footing with those Of
England and Europe, In the matter Of
the procurement of cheap capital.
There is no better field for the Alliance
to proselyte for recruits than among
manufacturers and business men, who
are being slowly ground to powder be-
tween the upper and neither mlllstones
Of trusts and combinations, and scarce
and dear money.
After all, the tariff discussion does not
so much hinge upon the question of the
wages OF labor as upon that of the wages
Of money. With the American consumer
1t Is not 80 much question Of cheap
goods as 1t is query as to where the
money is to come from to buy goods at
any price. How can an American manu-
facturer, who must pay anywhere from
6 to "a per cent. for capital (bank dis
counts) compete with English or Euro
pean firms, who can always obtain money
at from TO 2 per cent. Let the Peoples
party press forward and confne them
selves to the Cincinnati platform, taking
as their slogan "Free money, free land,
and transportation at rates that will pay
low rate Of interest upon the actual
cost Of the means Of transportation. AZ
ter these demands are acquired facts,

JERRY SIMPSON.

son than any other one man con-
nected with the Peoples party. This
shows that he is hurting them some
where. No person stops to kick an
insignificant little cur no matter how
loudly he may bark. His antics are
amusing rather than dangerous. But
when the mGstif shows his teeth and
utters a significant growl it means
business; and an attitude of defense
is at once assumed. So it is in the
intellectual arena. Men of small
caliber are not feared however erratic
or visionary may be their course. 1t
is when men of marked ability ap-
pear in opposition to popular and
long accepted dogmas that the bitter
ness and malignsncy of personal as
sault are resorted TO, and there is no
man ia public life against whom
these methods have been pursued
more persistently than against Jerry
Simpson He is misrepresented, lied
about, caricatured and ridiculed as
no other man has been.
The latest demonstration against
him, like all former ones, is: based
upon a pure fiction, that had its
origin in the fertile imagination of
his political adversaries. 1t is well
known that Mr.. Simpson with many
others differed with the majority of
the delegates at the Cincinnati con-
vention with respect to the time of
organizing the new party. This was
simply a difference of opinion as to
time, and not as to the ultimate pur-
pose; and it was a question concern
ing which a difference of opinion was
perfectly legitimate. No reasonable
or fair minded man would question
the motives or sincerity of any man
on account of it. Mr.. Simpsons po-
litical opponents have seized upon
this circumstance, distorted its mean
ing, misrepresented his views, per-
verted his statements, and pictured
great revolt against him IN the ranks
of his friends because of it. The
"big seventh" is represented as
stirred" of its representative, and the
g. 0. p. is already looking ahead to
his retirement at the first opportu-
nifty. Although this requires a great
stretch of the imagination, that par
ticular faculty of: the Republican
organization does not seem to be
overtaxed in the effort to picture such
q result.
1t need hardly be said to members
of the Peoples party anywhere that
there is no revolt against Jerry Simp-
son. The men who are associated
with him in this movement are con-
structed upon a broader gusge than
would be indicated by a revolt for
such a cause. The Representative
from the "big seventh" is as true to
the new party as any man in it, and
will do as much for it's success; and it
is knowledge of this fact that hurts

RuSinesS Mems Carnival.

A very large audience filled the
seats and blocked the aisles of Meats
Opera House Tuesday evening to wit

play under the auspices of the Young

The programme opened with a
beautiful march of the SO young ladies
employed. This intricate exercise was
executed without an error.

lovely lady, was doubly so in her char

which it will lay away among the

Water Works.

The Water Board has issued cir
cular letter to all parties who do not
but ought to take the town supply of
water.
The letter asks them to permit the
connections to be made before the
present corps of laborers is disbanded,
because the work can be done chear err
and with greater readiness and ease
now than later.
The Boards arguments for the adop-
ton of its suggestions are incontro-
yertible. 1t says:
1t is to the interest of every citizen, prop
erty-holder and taxpayer to patronize our
home water system, thus increasing the town
revenue and removing all occasion for tax
alton on account of the water supply. Every
cent paid elsewhere for water is equivalent to
money paid out of the town treasury.
On the other hand, the Board might
haye added that every cent paid by the
people for supply from their own
works is money kept forever at home.
There have been complaints here
and there, when the water has been
first put in, that it is hard. The Board
attributes this to its passage through
and Washing of the galvanized con-
nections. All occasion for such COM
plant soon passes away, however, as
the pipes are used. 1t cannot be
otherwise, for the water is soft, pure
spring product.
So that all who have not taken it
should do so, and do so early, for there
is economy to be directly subserved
now and Indirectly forever hereafter.

NOTE.-A few families in town
understand the art of writing graceful
notices of the presence of guests in
their household, and the grace of send
ing them to the JOURNAL for pub
LEGATION. They understand also that
such recognition is distinctive mark
of courtesy which a guests are sure to
appreciate as an earnest of welcome,
not to say practical expression of
feeling honored by the visit and So
journ. These remarks are set down
because the JOURNAL wishes all to do
hkewise-not to economize labor on
our part, but because access to such
information in all portions of town is
impossible. A column of such matter
could be contributed every week, and
no news is more welcome.

audience out of countenance on that
proposition.
