The advantages of this trap are that
any rat that comes to my place is sure
to get into it, as rats have natural
liking for such places. He is soon taken
out prisoner without being hurt. No
squealing, no blood, no disturbance,
nothing to alarm the rats if there are

the trap as freely as before.
This trap has been in my barn twelve
years and is as useful as at first If
it caught rats automatically its useful
ness would have played ont in two

The tiue must not be much larger
than the size given. Rats can pass each

WHAT DEMOCRACY MEANS.

His Earnings.
| When American democracy ceases to
mean the lowest possible taxation on
the people it will be meaningless

federal treasury from any source what
, ever is Il dollar taken from the earn
ings of the productive labor of the
I country. and when these taxes are
/ tariff taxes, levied to prevent exchange.
| they rob the Garner of three dollars for
every dollar that goes into the treas
urv.
Opposed to all unnecessary taxation
as robbery from the Garner, democrats
| oppose unnecessary tariff taxation
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 earnings
! and has denied the right of government
| to take from him any part of them not
absolutely necessary for economical
government. 1t stands for this prin-
ciple because it stands for individual
liberty; for where government can

earnings are legally taken from him
for the benefit of others, and the pur-
pose of Il tariff made high enough to
stop trade is to make slaves of the
earners of the country. This is its

The fight the democratic party has
been making for the lowest possible
tariff taxation is a fight for freedom

Democrats will never face to the rear

this fight they would abandon tho Of

Treasury.
1t is announced in an administration
organ that the president was greatly
displcased to learn the facts regarding
the dismissal of worimen from the
government employ without payment
of their wages due. 1t is further al
legged that Mr. Harrison promptly re-
buased the officials alleged to have been
responsible for this act. But the more
recent publication of the monthly
treasury report will create suspicion
that the president was initiating Mr.
Pickwicll in his angry denunciation. II
is embarrassing for the administration
to face the results of it's party acts.
The vanishing surplus has been the
canse of anxious discussion among
those friendly to the levy of higher

seems to have accepted the advice of
