Minnesota Against Prohibition.

In the house of representatives at St,
Paul. Minnesota. on the 18th of Feb.
action was taken on a bill to provide for
a vote on the adoption of a prohibitory
amendment something similar to the
one Kansas passed way back in the
dark ages. The majority of the COM
mittee, consisting of two republicans
and five democrats, recommended the
indefinite postponement of the bill,
their report holding that such an
amendment was unnecessary, difficult
of enforcement and an interference
with the liberties Of the people.
The minority, consisting of two alli-
ance men, one prohibitionist and one
republican was in favor of the passing
of the bill.
The majority report was adopted by
a vote of So yeas and 40 nays. The
vote was divided as follows: Yeas-re-
publicans IS democrats 35, alliance 6;
total SO. Nays-repnblicans Is. demo
Gratis 4, alliance IS. prohib;tionists l;

Can These Things Be?

Truth IS mighty and generally gets
there i'm the long run. For months the
Courier Journal and other papers have
been telling the farmers that many ag-
ricultural implements are sold cheaper
abroad than at home. and all the time
the organs of protection and some OF
the manufacturers themselves have
been denouncing these statements as
democratic lies of the most malignant
and baseless character.
But now comes Uncle Jerry Rusk,
the republican secretary of agriculture,
sound and orthodox protectionist,
who believes all the farmers woes are
due to foreign competition i'm the home
market and that they are to be reme-
died by deeper drafts at the fountain
of protection. and talks to Chicago
paper after this fashion, with reference
to the reaper and mower trust:
IAN investigation will show that
this same combination are selling and
offering to Sell machinery in Russia or
Australia and other wheat growing
countries at a lower figure than they
do in this country. This won't do,
and need not offer any argument to
prove the weight or truth of the asser-
ton. The first thing the farmer will
do when he is acquainted with these
facts is to make howl against trusts
and protection that does not protect.
Whether justly or not ne will charge
it to the republican party. L am as
certain as L can be of anything that
the mower and reaper trust will cost
the republican party hundreds of
thousands of votes at the next presi-
Dental election, unless it takes a firm
stand against it and trusts in general =
Now this confirms all that the demo-
Gratis have said as to one set of makers
of agricultural implements, and if one
class can do it, why not Others under
like circumstances? The murder is
out now. The democratic charge is
officially confessed.
General Rusk thinks the republican
party will lose hundreds of thousands
of votes at the next presidential cleo
| ton unless it takes a firm stand
against trusts in general. But. if it
should do this, where would il get its
campaign fund for 1892 And. with
out a campaign fund, what would a
few hundred thousand votes, more or
less, matter to the republican party?
Indeed, what are they likely to matter
to it i'm any eyent?-LouisvilleC Courier

Several of our pugilisticly inclined
boys had quite little roundup Tues
day evening, and cut and bruised each
other up considerably. Parties who
were present say the hop tea bottles
flew in all directions, in consequence of
which the windows and glass door of
the hop tea shop in question. are total
wreck. We dislike to be called upon
to note affairs such at this, but a paper
that does not give the local happenings
of the day, comes far short of its call
ing, and is not worthy to be classed
among the newsy journals of to-day.
THEY DO SAY That editors lie; that
doctors kill people; that merchants fail
to give good weights; that bankers rob
people; that lawyers swindle people;
that grain buyers cheat their customers;
that BARRIERS skin people alive: that
the butcher sells tough beef; that the
hotels have thin tables; that ministers
are more destructive than owls to fowls;
that single school ma'ams grow old;
that undertakers are happy when any
one dies; that several boys in this town
imagine they are full grown men; that
alliance men are not pleased with some
of the men they elected last fall. We
hope this is all false.

No Falling OFF,

with the trade effected since last fall.
Jerry Simpson is talked about. observed
and interviewed more than the senator
ever was. He seems to have been since
he went TO Washington the most at
tractive curiosity i'm the city The set
ting senatorial sun has almost been for
gotten a month has passed since his
defeat and nobody is much interested
i'm his past, present or future. Simpson
is the advertising feature of Kansas
politics and he performs his functions
with AS much credit as his predecessor.
What he lacks in acquaintance with
tables of synonyms he more than makes
up with good humor- His ideas on
public questions are shade more SEN
sible and much more popular.
Simpsons socks are as dignifed as
Ingalls, red neckties. His pepper and
salt sack coat is as appropriate as
ingalls, gray ankle touching ulster.
Jerry has not been alone in the mart
of politics. Mrs. Molly Lease has been
called to speak to the high general
council of her SEX She has advertised
Kansas, too. Mrs. Molly, the world
should know. is born orator of higher
grade than the skinner of democrats.
He had to learn and never did learn
oratory. He was forced to stop with
sarcasm and studied abuse. Mrs. Molly
has d better voice, a stronger manner
and reader vocabulary. She can
make an impression on an audience.
The senator worked by getting republi

THE REsuLr OF nERIr

When any thing stands test of fifty years among a discriminating people like the Americans. t is pretty good evidence that there is merit some where. The value Of a medicine is best proved by its continued use from year to year by the same persons and fam lilies, as wei as by a steady increasing sale. Few, if any, have met with such continued success and popularity as has marked the introduction and pro gress of Brandreth's pills, which, after a trial of over fifty years, a.e con- ceded to be the safest and most effect uai purgative introduced to the pub lie.
 That this is the result Of merit, and that Brandreth's pills actually perform all that is claimed for them, is eonclu- sively proved by the fact that those who regard them with the greatest "a yor are those who have used them the longest
 Brandreth's pills are sold in every drug and medicine store, eitker plain or sugar-coated.
