County Official Paper.
THE MEANING OF bEMOC-
RACY.

When American Democracy ceases
TO mean the lowest possible taxation
on the people it will Le meaningless.
Every dollar of tax that goes into the
federal treasury from any source
whatever is u dollar taken from the
earnings OF the productive labor of
the country, and when these taxes
are tariff taxes, levied to prevent ex-
change, they rob the Garner of three
dollars for every dollar that goes into
the treasury.
Opposed % all unnecessary taxation
as robbery from the Garner, Demo-
Gratis oppose unnecessary tariff tax
alton most because it robs the Garner
most.
From the very first the Democratic
party has maintained the sacredness
OF the right Of the Garner to his earn
Ings and has denied the right of
government to take from him any
part Ut them not absolutely necessary
for economical government. 1t stands
for this principle because it stands
for individual liberty; for where
government can take away earnings
for other purposes than those of keep
ing the peace and administering JUS
tlce the people are slaves. A slave is
an Garner whose earnings are legally
taken from him for the benefit of
Others, and the purpose Of a tariff
made high enough to stop trade is to
make slaves OF the earners of the
country. This is it's effect as we'll as
its purpose.
The fight the Democratic party has
been making for the lowest possible
tariff taxation is fight for freedom.
It is not fight that can be aban-
doned. Democrats will never face to
the rear on it. Before they would do
BID they would sacrifice every Demo
crat now holding Office, and il to get
the offices again they were obliged TO
abandon this fight they would aban-
don the Offices instead. They want
the offices merely as means to Pm
end--the end OF embodying their
principles in the laws and policies of
the federal government.
1t seems possible that in the imme-
diate future the Democratic party,
through internal treachery, will be-
come more seriously involved than it
has been in many years. But under
all circumstances it's way lies forward,
and the way to get forward is to fight
forward.-[St. Louis Republic.

MRS. LEASE KNOWS MORE.

The great apostle who has done so
much to create and inspire the Calamity
party, Mrs. Mollie Lease, it seems is get
ting her eyes open. She weakens in her
cry for Revolution" and has lost faith
in the ide that there exists any political
unity between Kansas and Georgia, be-
tween the west and south. Georgia
mobs and Macon rotten eggs have pene-
trated Mollie's mentality in more per-
suasive way than the bombastic appeals
of Jerry Simpson and the imbeci!e figure
of old Granny PETER. The times are not
80 "ripe for blood and Kansas is not
half so bad off as she had heretofore
concluded. Mrs. Lease, whose tongue
and talents commanded both attention
and money in Kansas and the west
found the boosted chivalry of the south
not above flinging over-ripe eggs at a
woman's. head. Neither her age or sex
protected her model toquet and modern
palpitator from bursting shells of I'M
hatchable chickens whose odor would
have proved too much for skunks.
Knowing of rotten eggs and open in
suits Mollie is now ready not only to be-
lieve the ''shot gun story" but declares
that the south not only needs
the force bill, but, and in her own words,
Under these circumstances the election
of Cleveland would be practical in
dorsement of these things, and as such
would be at once the shame and the dan
ger of the republic"
Elsewhere this morning the EAGLE
produces, in full, and word for word,
Mrs. Leases interview, as accorded the
Chicago Inter Ocean and published in
that paper on Monday morning. The as
sertion that herself and General Weaver
were insulted by hoodlums and young
rowdies is repudiated in the most en-
phatic language. In no barroom of the
vilest den of northern city would
womanly advocate OF temperance and
reform have been aesailed with such
coarse epithets as was Mrs. Lease by
the organized Democracy of the
south, or otherwise her own
words cannot be believed. We hope,
therefore, that not only her friends and
admirers in the Peoples party. but that
every old-time Republican who has been
misled by her talks of the "bloody
chasm bridged, will read what she SAYS.
The fact that after being confronted
with the effect of her declarations by
her employers she in half-hearted way
denys portion of the interview will
count for nothing. So reputable a paper
as The Inter-Ocean would not have mis-
represent what she did say for all she is
70 get for her services in the campaign.

Before. the county conventions OK the
Democratic and Peoples parties for this
county were held, and while the terms
of the combination were being consid-
cred, the Democrats of the Third COM
missioner district protested against
their party being given the candidate for
commissioner, their reason being that il
a Democrat were elected to the board all
three of the parties would have MEM
Der on the board and neither party could
be charged with responsibility for the
action Of the board Whatever it might be
in the matter of extravaganza or any
other way affecting the best interests Of
the county and Its citizens. That reason
was good one then. but II was disre-
garded BY the fxers: it IS just as potent
now, and OF itself is sufficient to iDfiu-
ence the actions Of all fair minded voters
of that district in casting their ballots
for county commissioner.
