IT'S THE DEATH BLOW.

When the government Of the United
States made its onslaught against
the Louisiana lottery and enacted
legislation denying it the use Of the
mails for the purpose OF carrying on
its nefarious business, the lottery met
its first repulse, though not until this
legislation had been passed upon and
approved by the highest court in the
land, did the lottery recognize the full
force of the movement against it. In
the meantime a great fight had been
commenced for supremacy in the state
of Louisiana. Democracy there was
split in twain and for more than a
year back the liyeliest kind of fight
has been going on between the lottery
and anti-lottery factions. CAt the
commencement the lottery people
seemed to have it all their own way,
so demOraliZing had been the effects
of the great gambling Institution
upon the people, and so vast was the
corruption fund which the lottery
had at its command. 1t offered the
state a vast bride to allow its continu-
ance, and it seemed at first as though
its corrupting influence would be sue
cesSful.
The lottery people controlled the
Democratic convention, Whereupon
the anti-lotteryites withdrew and put
a ticket of their own in the field. In
the election which took place Tuesday
the anti-lottery people won a great
victory. Foster, their candidate for
governor is reported to have majori-
ty of 10000 and upwards, and it is
thought an anti-lottery legislature
was also elected. The result will
have great effect upon the future of
that state, as we'll as the nation at
large, for it means the final death
struggle of an institution that is a
foe to good public morals, and its de-
moralizing effects were eating deeper
and deeper into the nations life, de-
stroying that finer sense for higher
aims and greater achievements which
ought to be the first object to the
people.

THEIR PREDICTIONS NOT Full

When anything is said about the
prosperity the country is enjoying at
present, the Democrats Immediately
declare that it is due to the great
crops of last season. Now we are will
ling to give all credit to the great
crops as source of prosperity, that is
due to that quarter, for no one will
deny but that for good crops prosper
Gus times could not be secured. But
there is another point right here.
Without consumers to take the sur
plus crops, they would be Of little
value to the farmers. 1t is the de-
mand for the farmers produce that
makes it valuable. To get consum-
ers we must have industries, and eX-
perience has taught that to build up
industries we must have protection.
Now. what we wish to call atten-
ton to is this. The Democrats pre-
dicted all sorts of dire calamities for
the nation if the Mckinley bill be-
came a law. There was no reserya-
ton in this prediction. The pictures
of miseries which they painted were
Of the blacklist hue. unrelieved by
promises of good crops or anything
else. Trade would be given fearful
blow Prices would go up, and the
masses of the people would be crushed
under the burdens o. this terrible
tariff.
But it became law. Its crushing
weight has not been felt by the peo-
pie. Prices of manufactures have
ruled lower instead of higher All
over the land industries have been
springing into life and the people
have prospered. And now the Demo
Gratis say it is all because of the boun-
tiful crop. Truly that has helped.
The crops have done their part and
the Mckinley bill has done its share,
and by the aid Of the two. the nation
has entered upon an era of uneXam-
pied prosperity, menaced only by the
retail tariff thinkers who would, if
they could, pull down the structure
stone by stone, until the whole lies at
their feet a mass Of ruins.

THE extent to which the Springer
free wool bill strikes at the farmer is
shown by the following taken from an
article upon the wool question writ
ten in 1888: 1T happens that wool
is grown in every State. and exclud-
ing counties on the borders of civili-
Zation, which are but names without
population, out. Of 2.400 counties in
all the States, wool is grown in every
county except So. Perhaps there
is no other crop or product which so
large part of the people havea share
in producing"

there are tin-plate works in this coun-

line, "Fire in Tin Plate Works." In

that from the time the Mckinley bill

CONGRESSMAN HERBERT, of Ala

section has been drain upon tax
payers, to make it general would
make a great drain, which would
