Congressman Pearson thinks that Is the
only Fair Thing.

only Fair Thing.
Judge Pearson, the Democratic con-
gresham from Monroe county, Ohio,
wants to tryit over with Col. Poormaa.
He says, speaking OF the colonel: "He
made the race against me last time in a
Democratic district, in which no was
put up to lead q forlorn hope. The con-
test between us, though sharp and spir-
tied, was fair and friendly throughout.
Now the district is made Republican,
/ think it is a matter of simple Justice
that Col. Poorman should be given the
chance in a Republican district, which
he earned two years ago by running in
a Democratic district.
~ know how I would feel if I had
made n race in q hopeless district and
then when the district was readjusted,
SO as to make success likely, / should be
passed by for another. I would DO
mighty sore, and L should let it be
known. Ii / should be chosen to make
the race again | do not know a stronger
man in the district to run against than
Colonel Poornan; but I am speaking rs
a fellow citizen who loves fair play, when
| say Colonel Poorman has earned the
nomination"

The Concert.

Monday evenings concert at Moline,
given under the direction of Prof. FL. G.
Hardy, OF New York. was a decided sue
cess. Considering the season of the
year. good sized audience was in at
tendance. and from the hearty applause,
seemed to thoroughly enjoy the enter
tsinment.
The first solo on the programme was
given by Miss Marie Maroney. of Rock
Island, who proved to have a contralto
voice OF good volume and compass, and
of pleasing quality Mrs. James R.
Kimball. also Of Rock Island made de-
cided hit in the difficult selection "Lieti-
Signor," by Meyerbeer. Among other
numbers special mention is due the mag
nificeat duo, "a Night in Venice" by
Lemcentoni. and rendered by Miss Sti-
bolt, of Davenport, and Mr.. Hardy. Miss
Stibolt has a very pleasing presence and
an unusually rich full soprano voice.
Mr.. Hardy has a lyric tenor voice of ex-
cellent compass and quality. which he
handles with the skill born of correct
method. Much praise is also due Miss
Amy Louise Huey. of Moline. for the ex-
cellent rendition of "A che Assortrs," by
Venzand. The piece was we'll adopted
to show the great f1exibility and brillisncy
of her voice. Miss Huey's was one Of
the most promising voices heard during
the evening. No comment is needed in
regard to the playing Of Mrs. Frank
Gates Allen. Her proficiency on the key
board is 80 we'll known that the mere
mention of her playing is q sufficient
guarantee of q brilliant aud musicisnlv
performance.
The concert had scarcely q poor num-
Der in the programme. and much credit is
due Mr.. Hardy for securing to the peo-
pie of this community such an excellent
musical treat. We shall hope to her from
him again.

HIS WORKS SURVIVE HIM.

Barnum La Dead, But Bailey Lives
and the Greatest show on Earth
Will Never DIE.
just as we had all begun to look on
Phineas T. Barnum as one If the inn
mortals he lays down his burden and
passes away. The old Snowman was as
popular almost as the American flag. He
was always an amusing personality. His
theory was to make every visitor feel
that he had received his moneys worth
and he seldom failed. even when the
objects on exhibition were small things
compared with what we have known
latterly as the Greatest Show on Earth. :"
Barnum is gone, but his active. astute.
youthful partner, James A. Bailey. is
alive, and under his management in the
dozen years, the Barnum & Bailey show
will grow greater and grsnder every year.
Barnum & Bailey had articles of agree
ment drawn expressly STIMULATING that in
case of death of either the show would go
on" as usual. This agreement was also
made binding upon the respective heirs
and assigns, 30 that it became and is an
absolute and imperative condition. The
announcement is now outhoritativelY
made by the sole surviving partner. ], A
Bailey. that the show will continue, and
that in nothing in the future will the
public be able to discover the slightest
change, either in the policy or the char
acter of the Greatest Show on Earth
The capital Of s.. SOC. 900 which is equal
| ly invested in the institution will remain
| intact; that in oil particulars it will be
the same chow, except as 1t may be en-
larged or increased yearly in accordance
with the we'll known policy of Mr. Bailey
the manager. The latter gentleman will
continue to exercise sole authority in the
| organization. equipment, and genera
management. He has done so for many
| years past. having always. however. con-
suited with Mr.. Barnum on important
matters while Mr.. Barnum lived.

good effect upon their children"
DR. G. c. OsGooD,
Lowell, Mass.
"Castoria Is the best remedy for children of
which am acquainted. hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children and use Castoria in
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves"

Freer Trade, Lower Prices.

The chief Republican organ, in di.
punches two big holes in the bulwarks
of the protective system.
1t shows that, as result of the re
moval of the duties on American -four
in Cuba and the West Indies, mot only
has the price vi food products been
lowered, but the purchasing power of
islands chief products has been in
creased" Reciprocity, it is said, ''has
cheapened food and reduced the cost of
living" and increased trade and the
consumption of grain food.
These boasts also hold these admis-
sions:
1. That the tariff is tax, and tax
paid by the consumer.
-. That removing this tax "cheapens
the cost of living" and increases the
ability of the untaxed people to buy
more of the necessaries of life.
8. That freeing trade from tax
shackles increases its volume and that
the increased commerce is benefit to
both countries.
What the Repu blicans admit as to a
few things the Democrats claim to be
true of many.
When Republicans boast of the good
effect of untaxing foreigners Demo
Gratis ask: "Whats the matter with
untaXing our own people?'

Products of Foreign Labor.

Some brains have been SO added that
there are men who will ask, "Can we
not buy the products of foreign labor?"
With what? Can you get money with
out work? Is not the ten-dollar bill
merely warehouse receipt for your
share of the product of your labor?
Must you not produce something to
get it? Is there any difference between
exchanging your product directly with
the foreigner or exchanging your pro-
duct with the middleman for bill,
and then exchanging the bill for
the foreign product? But the
rich buy" The rich have
no money. Astor, Vanderbilt
or Gould have, use and handle less
money than country school teacher.
They are rich in labor products, not
money, in good debts, not cash. They
have credit. They pay by transferring
credits for labor products) from one to
another, by means of notes or checks.
Millionaires do not carry wads of bills.
They carry check books to transfer
property. Even if the itch did buy,
what value would their notes and bills
have to tie foreigner until he had paid
them back to the American for labor
products?

Senator Villas was asked by a press
reporter, in Washington, on Tuesday,
to give his views as to the results that
would follow the Syracuse convention.
Il cannot say anything whatever
about it," he replied Gas [ really do
not know; but this much l can tell
you. Cleveland is going to be nom
mated beyond the shadow Of a doubt"
you are sure then he is not going
to surprise the country with any letters
between now and the Chicago conven-
tion?" Mr.. Villas was asked.
MIR Cleveland" he said, "Will not
be guilty of any vacillation or non
sense He is not the kind Of man who
would allow his friends to go on as
they have and then disappoint them.
Mr.. Cleveland is not impatient, fitful
or restless. If the national convention
Of the Democratic party were to name
someone else IOE us leader no one
would accept the situation with greater
respect than he. But nothing is going
to interfere with the judgment of the
Democratic party and it will take a
greater force to make Mr.. Cleveland
lie down. He is going TO be nominated
ang we will make grand fight for
the principles which Mr.. Cleveland
better represents than any words pos
sibly could. The time has come when
the Democratic party must be brave
or forfeit all right to perform a mission
or carry on any work whatever, and it
will not fail to be brave. There is this
much you can say: There is no bu-
reau, gang or combination working to
accomplish the nomination of Mr.
Cleveland, and have really felt the
lack of organization. The absence of
any real cooperation among Mr..
Cleveland's has been a matter of
some concern, but nevertheless, he
will be nominated by the independ-
ent action of Democrats from all over
the country"

FACTS IGNORED.

The following from an exchange
presents few important facts which
the people of Wisconsin should con-
stantly bear in mind:
When the republican organs say
that there has not yet been turned
over TO the state treasury a single
dollar of interest on the public funds,
they ignore the $4,000 per annum
which Honest John Hummer has been
turning over regularly to the respect
i've funds to which the money belongs.
And he commenced it before there
was any change in the laws under
which republican treasurers retained
he interest. They further fail to recall

BE FAIR TO LABOR.

The subsidy of so called protection is
ever asked in the name of labor; but
the trusts and combines step in and
appropriate it to their own use and
behoof, and the toilers have no redress
under the law. In this connection an
exchange very pertinently inquiries.
Which is in the most need of "pro-
lection" the infant industry backed
up by wealth, trade combines, trusts,
and corporation laws, or the laborer
who has only Drawn to look to in his
behalf? The Mckinley law protects
the former, but makes the Drawn pay
for the protection monopoly gets.
