PROSPERITY RULED.

From the FlDoIado Republican.
When President Harrison was elected,
industries in this country were de-
pressed, business was extremely dull,
multitudes were out of employment,
thousands of wheels were still. The
progress Of the country during the four
years Just ended has been une1ampled
in history. The month preceding his
defeat was the month of the largest
business ever known in the history of
the country; trade was never more con-
fdent; industries had never been as
we'll employed, and hundreds of new
works we're in process of erection for
the employment of host of American
workers, while wages paid to labor were
higher, on the whole, than had ever
been paid at any previous time. The
cost of living was lower during his ad-
ministration than ever before, and the
increase in savings of labor was greater.
But the people voted for change, and
all We can do is to wait for the change
to come.

LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE.

From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Men who voted for the repeal of the
Mckinley law, for that is what vote
for Cleveland and Stevenson was, need
feel no surprise over the announcement
that Sir Titus Salt & Co. have cut down
the number of their employees at Bridge
port, Conn, one-half, and they VII re-
move their factory to England after the
repeal of the present tariff. The words
of the Bridgeport representative of the
firm form a most instructive object les
son for all hands. "f they" (the dem
ocrats J, he says, "repeal that law, there
will be no need TO- us to remain here,
and you will find US competing with the
American manufacturers from Saltaire
once more" This was inevitable. His
words, however, mean moro than the
mere fact of removal The firms sales
in this country will continue, but their
profits will not remain here. They will
still pay hundreds of thousands of dol
lars per year in wages, but not to Amer
lean workingmen. And still there is no
escape. As the same man adds: ut is
hard to see why the people did not let
well. enough alone"

AN ENGLISH FARMER FOR PRO.
lection.

From the Jamestown, n. y, Journal.
A farmer of English birth, but who
now lives east of jamestown, was in the
city Saturday, and in conversation gave
his reasons for being republican.
81 came to America because I could
not make living at farming in Eng
land. Now have farm and it's paid
for, and there are dollars in my pocket -
tapping his pocket and causing the sill
yer to jingle.
"Why am I a republican? Because
England has free trade and I could
not get on there at all. The United
States has protection and has given
me home. Republicans are for pro-
lection; that is why am republican.
1 am proud to be called an English
man by birth, but for man who has a
will to get on in the world the United
States is the place. This country has
been very kind to me, and Til stand by
it and the party that has made it what
it is."
The Globe-republican., 1892-12-09

From the American Economist.
Only one question now: II a tariff
is tax" added not only to imported
articles but to like articles of home pro-
duction, paid by the consumers, and
mostly going to the ''monopolist'' home
manufacturer, how can Saginaw salt be
sold at about IS cents per barrel of five
bushels, or $50 pounds, while the tariff
is 32s cents per barrel ii. g., II cents
per 100 pounds and the barrel costs 20
cents?
To make the case clear, it may be
stated that in 1883 that salt was $1.S5
per barrel, and has slid down to its
present price under protective duty.
Has the tariff been, or is it now, tax
on tho consumer, who gets his salt for
about one-third its old price:
Cipher it out. my brother. Send us
your answer, and it shall be published.
But If you never vote for free trade I'M
til you get the answer, you will be over
hundred years old before you cast that
vote.

NORTH CAROLINA LEVYINC d.
TIES FOR PROTECTION!

The democratic state of North Caro-
lima levies duty Of 25 cents ton on
all fertilizers imported from other states,
and also levies license on commercial
travellers from outside its borders. The
Raleigh, IN. C. Chronicle of September
81, democratic free-trade journal, up
holds this fertilizer tariff and congratu-
iates the farmers on q late decision OF
Judge Seymour, declaring that legisla-
ton constitutional and virtually con-
tinuing it.
A North Carolina correspondent
writes:
''The free trader says it is unconsti-
tutional for the United States to protect
its people by levying tax on goods
brought from foreign lands. It is a
fraud and robbery. But the state OF
North Carolina is greater than the
combined states of tie Union! She can
and does levy tax protective tariff }
of 25 cents a ton on all fertilizers i'm
ported from other states.
at is levied not for revenue only,
but, the free-trader is careful to say,
to protect the farmer.
SIN the meantime, the manufacture of
fertilizers in North Carolina has in
creased largely.
''This is democratic inconsistency"
The Chronicle holds this tax needed
TO protect the farmer from adulterated
stuff, but board of examiners would
do that far better.

QUESTION OF MERCY.

From the American Economist
During the discussion Of papers read
last summer before the British Associa-
ton for the advancement of Science
Professor Fream, Of the college of agri-
culture at Downton, England, made The
following truthful remarks, which We
wish all American farmers could havs
heard:
The American producer was at the
mercy Of the English consumer. but the
English consumer was not at the mercy
of the American producer, for there
were other countries to fall back upon,
such as India" etc.
That is to say, England is developing
every possible source of wheat supply,
even taking such chances as the Barings
took in Argentina to increase the wheat
supply and reduce it's price. At the
same time they are using every means
in their power to prevent other nations
from increasing the number of non-ag-
ricultural producers, or adding to their
power of paying Tor food.
1t ID strange that there is q party IN
this country that is cooperating with
the English manufacturers in, at one
and the same time, diminishing the
price received for agricultural produce
and increasing the cost Of the finished
commodities for which agricultural
products must be exchanged. They ap-
peal to the mechanical producers to de-
stroy their opportunity for earning
wages that bread may be cheaper. They
appeal to the farmers to destroy their
home market, and Ut the same time in
vite their best customers to compete
With them. in grain raising they
may compete solely With tho Hindoo,

sPELL-BINDERs' AFTERMATH.

WASHINGTON. = The democrats who
were bowling during the campaign
about the unreasonable amount oil
money piled up in the treasury by the
Mckinley bill are somewhat puzzled
now when they find that it requires all
the money that reaches the treasury to
meet expenses of the government, as
contracted by the present democratic
house during the last session.
OF course many of them are not per-
turbed. They belong to that large, ir-
responsible class of spell-binders who
say such things and who do such things
as they hope will deceive the people
until after election day. They have no
interest in telling the truth, and simply
hope to deceive, and il they succeed
smile enthusiastically about i.
With this howl for an extra session to
repeal the Mckinley bill in order to
stop this flow Of money into the treas
ury, many of the democratic politicians
are not in accord. They observe that
the people are not being robbed by the
Mckinley bill beyond the expense &C.
count. In other words, the money
flowing in, this great stream of robbery,
only meets the honest expenses of the
government-no more. They observe
that the report about an enormous sur
plus was campaign statistics, and not
backed by oftic'a report.
Taxation according to this awfully
wicked republican legislation, simply
meets government running expenses.
In the face of the facts, the few demo-
cratic leaders who have common sense
eye on the situation fail to see that a
repeal of the Mckinley bill in extra ses-
sion, and the substitution of Temporal
~ something is good plan. These
same democrats do not agree with those
who ascribe the victory to desire on
the part of the people that the Mckin-
ley bill be repealed.
Colonel Oates, of Alabama expresses
himself as strongly in favor of an extra
session, to be devoted to changing the
tariff. He says he has conferred with
the other members of the Alabama DEL
egat,on and with other members from
the south, and SO far as his investiga-
ton has extended he finds unanimlty
Of sentiment in favor of an extra
session.
He emphaticallv states that the dem
ocrats all over the country promised
certain things before election. They
promised to revise the tariff and demol-
ish the Mckinley bill if they we're only
put in power. Unexpectedly they got
in power, which, he says, means that
the people of the country take the dem
-ocratlc party up on it's proposition, and
If the changes promised are not made
without delay the next congressional
election will witness an all around defeat
OF the party
The colonel admitted that it might be
4 little hard on democratic members
outside the solid south to have cam
paign promises carried out. but the
south was in the saddle, and it was all
right for that section, and they pro-
posed to run things according to the
dictates of their own appetites.

home and with three other young
men, whom he persuaded to join him,
rented rooms in one of the poorest and
toughest parts of the burnt district of
North Chicago, and gave himself to
relief and mission work. Here he
started "Everybody's Mission" in a
German beer-hall and theater, after
wards removed to building
of its own. This mission. with
an attendance of $50 to $50, made up
of some of the worst elements, he sus-
