Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1892-06-23

On the first page of this paper is a
letter from Hon. J. r. Walker of this
county to the De Soto G0zcttc, and the
response of Editor Flynn thereto. The
response is as pretty piece OF special
pleading as we have ever seen. But
when Bro. Flynn says a storm of indig-
nation was raised all over this district
merely because Mr.. Byrns dared to
vote for a Georgia Democrat instead of
a Texas Democrat, " he does credit
neither to his head nor his heart. The
vote for the Georgia Democrat was at
the behest of German, Hill, and all
those who desired to throw the great
question of Tariff Reform into the back
ground by defeating the man recognize
ed as its chiefest champion; the refusal
to vote for the Texas Democrat was a
wilful disregard of the people who had
made Mr.. Byrns their representative.
He knew their will; he failed to execute
it, and in so failing went back on the
pledges he had solemnly made during
the campaign. That was what ''rOused
the storm of Indignation all over the
district" nor did Mr.. Byrns' plea that
he voted for the Georgia Democrat be-
cause the RepuJltc tried to force him to
vote for the Texas Democrat, satisfy
his constituents. And, Bro. Flynn,
they refuse to be satisfied unto this
day. But the most extraordinary plea
of all is that which insists that an I'M
asked-fOr denomination must be given
on a silver platter to Mr.. Byrns. in or
der that he may have chance in a
second term to clear away the cloud of
doubt, suspicion and Indignation which
obscures his fair fame by reason of the
sins committed in the first. Allow the
sanity of the plea. and who will guar
antee that it will not demand third. a
fourth-a hundred terms-with cumu-
lative force and justice?
tlIiicI MI do NiOIS
in voting for the Georgia man, or his
constituents were guilty of gross injus-
tice in censuring him for his vote. If
the former, Mr. Byrns should be retir-
ed from the place he has not accept
ably filled; if he be returned-moreI
without solicitation-it will
be an acknowledgement that he was
right and his constituency a lot of peo-
pie who didn't know what was good for
themselves. Perhaps the people of the
Thirteenth District may be ready to
write themselves down a lot of asses;
perhaps not. Time will tell. Mr.. Byrns
now says he will accept the nomination
If thus rendered to him, because he is
not greater than his party" Did he
not consider himself, in his vote for
Speaker, greater than nine-tenths OF
MS party?

This list shows that there are very few
of the heads of departments left in Wash
ington. The TRIBUNE showed the other
day how President Harrison is passing
his time between comforting with his
satraps, Messrs. Carter and Dave Martin,
in New York, and the managers Of his
campaign throughout the country. Ever
since the Ith Of March, 1889, he has been
devoting the greater part Of his time and
attention to securing a second term, and
since the beginning of the present year
he has done nothing else to speak of. so
that the country is paying him $4,000
a year for working for his own reelection
to the presidency. If this is not a spec
tacle to make the American eagle sick
and to cause the American people to
blush with shame, then it would be diff
ticult to find anything which would pro-
duce these effects.

HARKIsOS's GANG.

The stupendous folly Of e~lecting a
president for d second term when he is
in the Office and able to use all the sal
AIRED employees OF the government to Sc
cure his re election. never had a strouper
illustration than in the present canvass.
Here we have the secretary of state. John
Foster, making campaign speeches in
New England. lie receives $1,000 a
year salary to attend to government
business at Washington. The secretary
OF the treasury. Charles Calico" Foster.
is also on the stump and receives 5000
a year to attend to government bust
ness.
Noble. the secretary Of the interior. is
expected in Iowa and Missouri on the
stump. He also receives from the gov
eminent $1,000 a year and shonld be at
Washington attending to his business.
Assistant secretary of the interior.
Cyrus Bussey, is also on the stump in
New York and New Jersey. He receives
a salary of $1,000 a year and certainly
ought to be at his post.
Star Route" Elkins, now secretary of
war is working like a beaver to carry
West Virginia. His salary is also 5000
a year and he ought to be at his post in
stead Of trying to bulldoze his employees
into giving Harrison and himself another
term.
Tracy, the secretary Of the navy is
spending a large part OF his time on the
stump. He also receives 5000 a year
and ought to be at his post.
Attorney General Miller, who also re-
ceives 5000 a year, was Harrison's law
partner in Indianapolis, and he is on the
stump in Indiana trying to induce the
Hoosier state to assist in giving his mas

fectly familiar with the fact that a de
liberate understanding was reached
by the democratic majority that as the
business interests of the country had
been so long interrupted and confused
by tariff discussion it would be better to
let the subject rest for awhile. The con
sentative and common-sense attitude OF
the democratic majority in congress at
that time is the strongest proof that
could be given that there is no basis
| whatever for the free trade tale of woe
promulgated by Mr.. Richards.
Mr.. Richards mistakes on the ques-
ton of silver were almost as glazing as
those at other points of his address.
What boots it to the silver miners if the
government buys all the silver they can
produce at a figure that will not pay the
cost of mining: Today silver is at So
cents an ounce, and the more ounces we
sell the more we lose. The republicans
permitted it's decentralization i m
1873, accepting brides from the English
money-lenders for committing the crime,
and now we sell it to them for SO cents,
and they realize sl.3J for every ounce of
it. Why did not Mr.. Richards refer to
this interesting point? His assertion
that 2GO,000,OO0 ounces of silver had been
purchased under Harrison's administra-
ton might mean something were
it not for the enormous loss to
the silver miners, and to all
the people which this statement I'M
plies. Mr.. Rickar S seemed to forget
that about 30 cents was lost by us on
each ounce of this silver. and gained by
the people who bribed the republican
party to demonetize %silve-, amounting to
at least Sl25,OOO.000. which vas taken by
the republican crime of characterization
from the pockets of the American people
and placed in those of the British money
lenders.
Mr.. Richards was wise to wash his hands
of the Precinct 81 business, which he
did by repeating a clear cut denial of any
knowledge of it which he made to Sena.
tor Parberry at White Sulphur Springs
the other day. Few men would care to
boast of their connection with that
shameful affair. But this fairly demol-
ishes such arguments as Mr.. Richards
brought to the defense of his party, and
if he has any others it is believed they
can be as readily disposed of.

WHY LA FAvORs GREAT FALLS.

IL there is anything more that needs
to be said concerning Great Falls and
the capital fight, it probably has relation
to the attitude of the laboring men in
Montana on this important question.
That the labor men in the state favor
Great Falls there can be no question, and
their reasons for so doing are not far to
seek. They are well aware that when
the great mining camps in which large
numbers are now employed have declined
or passed away Great Falls will still be
the permanent employer of labor, the city
of the workingman.
They know that here no Chinese are
allowed to land. and that none of the
long-gueued Asiatics are permitted to
settle here under any preteXt. White
labor alone is encouraged to come here,
and it receives the trea tment and the
consideration which it deserves as the
backbone of all enterprise.
That the laboring men of the state,
therefore, should stand rs a solid pha-
lanx to secure the location of the capital
at Great Falls will surprise nobody; in
fact it is the only natural thing for
them to do. The only thing they can do
if they study their own interests and
look to the future welfare of labor in
this section of the United States. 1t is
not the purpose of the TRIBUNE at this
time to dwell at length or go into de-
tails respecting the attitude of the vari-
Gus labor unions on this question. but
it may be said here that it is extremely
encouraging, and that the labor unions
of the state are alive to the Importance
of having the capital located where it
will be most serviceable to the largest
number of citizens. AS Great Falls is
the only situation that meets this re-
q%uirement. it is the only one that can
consistently receive the support of work
ingmen.

We regret to note the suspension of
that excellent paper. the New York III
nancial and Mining Record, which has
stood so faithfully by the silver interest
several years. In its issue of Oct. s
the editor takes his leave of his patrons
without giving any definite clue to the
cause of suspension. The business man.
ager of the paper was here only a few
weeks ago, e%ndeavoring to secure bust
ness for a Montana edition, but met with
80 little encouragement that the enter
prise was abandoned. In the demise of
the Record the silver cause loses its most
able eastern champion.

November the Sth is approaching.
On that day Grover Cleveland will be
elected president of the United States.
and L. +. Collins governor of Montana.
These are events which are of part
cular interest to every intelligent citizen
of the state. In the case of Mr.. Cleve-
land it means that the country will have
no more deprecated or wild cat" money.
while he is at the head of the admins
tration.
1t means that the robber tariff will be
reduced or entirely removed from the
necessaries of life, and thereby the bur
dens of the people will be diminished.
1t means that millions of acres of land
which have been absorbed by foreign
spectators and others not entitled to
them, shall be restored to the public
domain for the benefit of actual settlers.
1t means that the principles of the
civil service law will be closely adhered
to, that men in ofiice will be required to

ing their time electioneering.
1t means the gradual disappearance of
sectional feeling from the lives of men
who fought for the north or the south in
the late war.
Indeed it means straightfor wardness
and reform in every department Of the
government, and an administration of
public affairs unintiuenced by maudlin
hypocrisy and false pretenses.
The election of Mr.. Cleveland. in fact.
will mean a manly administration of
American affairs in accordance with up
right business principles and for the
good of all the people.
In like manner the election of Mr..
Collins as governor of Montana will have
IA salutary effect upon the affairs of the
state.
lie will go into the Office unpledged in
the smallest particular to any man or
body of men. and with the one determi-
nation to do his full duty to the public.
He will go into Office possessing the
full confidence of the people, and this
confidence will be greater at the close of
his administration than at it's beginning.

THE TRUTH BOT MIR. RICHARDS.

Mr.. Richards, the republican candi-
date for governor. is a nice man, a
gentleman and a scholar, but he won't
be governor of Montana. chiefly because
the people do not desire his services in
that office, and secondly because it is a
great democratic year and the people are
not taken with republican argument.
This must have been plain to Mr..
Richards last night. His audience was
attentive. but decidedly undemonstra-
tive. 1t was a select audience. contain
ing notably few republicans. When he
mentioned Mr.. Harrison in winding w d
climax for applause, two or three clapped

but VI submit that the speaker
was uncandid and wide from the truth
when ne said that Mr.. Cleveland goes
into the contest under the banner of free
trade. Mr.. Richards knows that this as
sertlon is an absolute untruth, and his
quotations from the English press do not
help him in the least on that point. The
English press may wish TO see free trade
established in this country but it has no
more influence with Mr.. Cleveland than
it has with Mr.. Harrison. and even il il
could bring about free trade. il would
not thereby strike such a blow at the re-
public as the British bribers did who

the nose Of a republican president, to de-
monetiZe silver in 1873, the deadliest blow
that was eyer struck at the prosperity Of
this nation,

ton. He was almost paralyzed, as any
honest man would be, by his discovery of
the shameless schemes and jobs that had
been successfully worked by American
and foreign spectators for the stealing
of the public domain. He had no notion
of the enormity of these robberies until
he became president and the actual con
