1t Is Reported That Cholera Exists
Among the Troops.

PANAMA. Aug. SO.-It Is reported
here that Asiatic cholera exists in
Venezuela. The long-continued rebell-
ion has caused sanitary conditions to
be more or less neglected, and this. To-
gether with the bad and impure water
supply and the great scarcity of proper
food, is said to have aided the disease
in its progress after its introduction.
Yellow fever is still epidemic in Vene-
zueia. especially so among the soldiers
of both the government and Crespo, the
rebel leader. The mortality among the
troops is very great

d. O. MARKLEY, Linn Co.

WHEN the money interests are at
tackled, Wall street combines and
fights the common enemy without
reference to party affiliations. The
same may be said of railroad COM
panies, of manufacturing companies,
of the brewing and distilling inter-
ests. Laboring men in the cities
also combine for protection, but the
farmer-well, the farmer lets all the
other classes ride him free, except
the Peoples party farmers, and they
are buckiDg.

Provokingly Prosperous.

PrOvOkingly Prosperous.
The New York Herald, with the
aid of the Wall street microscope,
has again discovered whole lot of
prosperity. The Plaindealer copies,
and, therefore, it is presumed that
the Plaindealer has either had free
peep, or has joined the Anthony
brigade. In substance, we are in
formed that the business of the
country is in a healthy con-
dition; the symptoms of which are
greater imports than any former year,
amounting to 1888, 100000, and that
exports aggregated $l,o27, 100000
RAILROAD earnings greater than
those of any similar PERIOD" and
the output of manufacturers great
er than ever before" AS we have
seen in former issue, counting ON
foreign loans, the balance against
us is about twelve million dollars
and so the business prosperity in
that line is in favor Of foreign coun-
tries. Increased earnings of rail-
roads arose from higher freights and
reduction of the wages of employees,
and the output Of manufactures was
the exodus of Homestead "strikers"
who went out of employment and
home. The grain crop is also men
toned as abundant, and wheat at
40 cents per bushel has made the
farmer so prosperous that many OF
them are thinking of starting bank.
1t is also stated ,"that money is
abundant and collections easy"
which of course means that money
is plenty in Wall street and London
and collections easy under the laws
of Kansas-at the steps of the court
house door.
The Herald forgot to mention that
things were booming in New York,
Tennessee and Idaho, because the
business of employees and miners
was trimming over Oh this is
great big country, and full of great
papers like the Herald and the Plain
dealer, with great big Wall street
microscopes.

Standing Up for Kansas.

The writer of this is a farmer.
We have seen the garsshopper stand
up for our cornfield in the morning,
and 10 at night, we had no corn
except the roots. We have seen
the chinch-bug stand up for our
wheat all winter, and kill the plant
in the spring. We have felt the
fiery breath of the hot winds stand
ing up for our crops, and seen our
crops standing down. We have
seen the railroad companies standing
up for Kansas in higher freights
than are paid by the people of any
other state. We have seen the ring
politicians turn one another down,
and turn one another up, by buying
and selling the Offices, four TO ten
years in advance, according to age
of aspirants. Standing up for Kan
sas on both "hind legs ~ We have
seen the lands of the state a vast
prairie of wild land waiting for the
homesteader, and we have seen con-
gress standing up for Kansas by CIV
ing the land to railroad companies
in large grants. We have seen the
money-lender standing up for Kan
sas till it's real estate was plastered
all over with mortgages. In brief,
we have seen everything, and every
body standing up for Kansas except
the Lord and the farmer, and we
have borne it all with a reasonable
degree of fortitutde.
But, when we see Ben Simpson
and Frank Brown, and the Anthony
brigade, and the railroad attorneys,
tear great bolts of Nc Kinley bill
yellow muslin into strips and stamp
tags with the legend, "Stand up for
Kansas" and, in their mad rush to
pin them on their coats, forget their
trousers, then we break down. Our
land is for sale Gall there is left }.
We put it down IL per cent. We
would put it lower, but we would
like to realize enough to buy our
wife Mckinley bill calico dress.

only time In tho history hfthe Nav Yorl
democracy when TAmmany holted wal
when Lucius Robinson ran tor governor
In 1878. The bolt at that time was
open. John Kelly ran as an indepen-
dent candidate and Alonxo B. Cornell
was elected governor BY nearly 10000
majority. Tammany wal against Mr..
Cleveland at the Chicago convention In
1884 and again in 1888 but the demo-
cratic vote in New York city was equal
to all expectations. In 1883 MIR, Cleve-
land lost tho election through the fall
ing of Of the vote in Kings county and
New York state north Of Harlem. Dur
ing the past four years Mr.. Cleveland
has certainly done nothing to cause the
enmity OF this organization. William
c. Whitney, the ex-seoretary OF the
navy, wa smart enough to keep his
hands off the anti-Hill movement and
retain his influence with Tammany Hall,
Of which he has long been a leading
member. He would hardly undertake Mr..
Cleveland's nomination without know
ing that he would have the loyal sup
port from the democratic party Of New
York state on election day. The sub
sequent action OF the Tammnny lead
ers in declaring that they will give to
Mr.. Cleveland their heartiest and un-
yielding support ought to remove all
traces Of the pleasant decisions which
our republican friends have been en-
joying since the republican convention.

sHoDDY AS A re FOR WOOL

FaDDD1 AS a sCHSTlTC lie FOR WOOL.
The enormous increase IN the manu-
~facture and use Of shoddy in wooden
goods can be explained only by the
necessity for the use of this product by
manufacturers. They are forced to mix
it IN manufactured wooden goods because
under the Mckinley act they are prac-
ticaliy prohibited from using such i'm
ported woods as cannot be raised in this
country. Mr.. S. N. d. North, secretary
of the National Wool Growers %associa-
ton, tells in q few words how the use Of
shoddy has increased. It appears from
his figures that in the manufacture Of
wooden goods of all descriptions the
shoddy used in the year 1890 amounted
to more than G 100000 pounds. In the
same year the secured wool produced in
this country amounted to $1,000 900
pounds or in other words ''it thus APP
pears that the shoddy consumed in the
United States in the census year of
1890 had a cloth producing power equal
to CT per cent Of all the wool which was
produced for that year" Furthermore
it is stated that the number Of estab-
lishments for the manufacture OF shoddy
has increased from seventy-three in
1880 to ninety-four in 1890. While the
value Of the product has during that
period increased from S4,9OO,COO to
100000 or an increase of nearly So per
cent. These are the figures for the sub
stitute'that has taken the place Of wool
that should go into garments for the
people.
If the tariff on wool were removed so
as to admit free of duty the home pro-
duct the result would be more WOODEN
goods and consequently a better demand
for American wool.
The Mckinley bill which was SUP
posed to raise the price of home wool
and increase the demand has accom-
plished neither looked for result. AS a
measure designed to advance the inter
ests of the wool growers it has proved a
complete failure. 1t is high time to try
something else, and the conditions are
such as to lead any wool grower who
will study the subject to believe that
free wool is the remedy.

HARRISON AND MONTANA,

The esteemed Journal makes a very
pretty little love text the forerunner OF
an editorial urging M~ontanians to vote
for Harrison because Of his exalted az
lection for this state. The Journal
may think it unnecessary to enumerate
the instances where this friendship has
taken form but nevertheless a list of
this sort would be interesting. That
the president feels grateful for the votes
of the Montana delegation at Minneap,
oils a hardly be denied; that the re-
publicans Of Montana are thoroughly
indignant over the failure Of their rep
resentatives to carry out instructions at
Minneapolis is also beyond denial, The
truth Of the matter is that the repub.
licans OF this state did not want Har-
rlson nominated and the Journal is
quite mistaken in thinking it can patch
up dislikes through the use OF such
taffy as appeared in its columns yester-
day.
In the first place President Harrison
descended from the high dignity OF his
AAIS w uColSO Ill Glc tuclb VI LlG ltE6u
legislature OF this state. He did all in
his power to bring the young common
wealth into the union in a cloud of dis
CRATE. With the assistance OF other
conspirators he succeeded. It is a crime
which a never be forgotten nor con-
doned and President Harrison will DO
remembered as one of the chief actors.
He did this much for Montana.
He is not to be credited with the sue
cess OF various measures in congress in
Guiding the bill to establish a military
post in Helena. The bills were regu-
larry passed and he simply did his Off
cial duty in signing them. In the post
Office fight in this city he ignored the
wishes of the vast majority Of the re-
publicans in refusing to appoint Mr..
James Blaine Walker. The appointed,
who has proved capable and against
whom nothing can be said, was not,
however, a candidate for the position un-
til the last minute and received nothing
like the endorsement given to Mr..
Walker from the republicans of Helena.
1t is most foolish for Mr.. Russell Har-
rison's newspaper to argue that the
president has any special love for the
people Of Montana or that the repub-
licans Of the state have any love for him.
This sort OF argument will not 60. Har-
rison has done absolutely nothing to de-
serve the support of Montanians and he
has done much to show that he had an
absolute disregard of their wishes.
These are among reasons of a local ma
ture for predicting that he will be badly
beaten in this state.
