The family Of Theogene Brous-
sard of lower Prairie Greig has
indeed been sadly stricken with a
terrible calamity in the death of
four members during the past
week. Typhoid fever declared it
self among them a few weeks ago
and soon proved to be of most
virulent form. On Thursday
evening, July Is, at 800, o'clock
his youngest son Due aged II
years died, and at . o'clock the
same evening his son DeLuc, aged
~ expired. His unmarried daug-
liter Edea aged y succumbed TO
the fatal maiady at 10 o'clock the
next evening, and Oh Saturday
night a married daughter, Mrs.
Moleard Dubuis, brcathcd her
last. At present writing about a
dozen families are reported TO be
afflicted with the disease, which
however docs not appear to be of
as fatal a type as the initial cases.
1t is to be hoped that the worst is
passed ana tho I,-r- If fIo na.rfa.

Is The State eating doubt
falt'

The polltica. game NOW going
on in the Fifth Congressional dis
trict is very interesting one. 1t
was indicated by the speech Of
Judge Gunby, and other inciden-
tai parts of the proreclinr- Of the
Farmers Unioa Convention, that
the plan of the Alliance would DO,
for the present, to remain within
the Democratic fold and cndeavor
to capture the Congressional no.
minating convention, in which
event Judgo Gurby would most
probably receive the nomination.
But failing to control the Demo
cratic Convention tho Alliance
men would be left free to put out
candidate of their own if they
saw fit to do SO.
1t was forcsecn that by holding
strictly to the plan Of a white ba-
sis of representation for the con-
vention the parishes west Of the
Ouachita, in which the Farmers
Union is strong, would be able to
control the results and make Of
their selection the regular" De-
mocratic nominee, although care
would be taken that the one upon
whom that honor was conferred
should be sound on the anti-De-
mOcratic "Ocala demands" and all
the other Alliance fads.
But the Democratic Executive
Committee last Saturday defeated
this well planned scheme by or
derlng the nominating convention
to be selected, as heretofore, on
the basis of total population, thus
giving the parishes east Of the
Ouchita, in which the negro popu-
lation is quite numerous, a most
potential voice in the naming of
the district standard-bearer. \
minority of the committee 'bolted'
when this conclusion was reached,
and have set up open, held and
apparently determined revolt.
The points at issue make a
plausible casus bell; for the Ali
ancers, still claiming to be Demo
Gratis; and should such leaders as
Gunby yield to the prospect of
personal advancement, made pos
sible through such u schism, il
may become a final breach in the
Democratic ranks.
The situation as it stands is ex-
tremely critical. True patriotism
and unselishness will be required
to avert a political catastrophe,
upon the prospect and develop
ment of which TIE Republicans
are already building high their
hopes of complete and not dis
tant return to control in the State.

Thou Shalt Earn thy Bread
BY the Sweat of thy Brow"

I.ab"r is king. Labor is the
builder and mover Of human works. |
Labor Is the foundation and the
massive frame of building, Capt. |
tai is the ornamental trimmings
Of consumated work.
Capital Is the resting bourne Of
an accomplished fact. 1t is the
ultimate end; beyond, it is disso-
luton.
Labor is as everlasting as the
world. As long as the sun shines
and man lives, labor will be the
beginnings of all things human
their foundation.
When labor has reached the
end of its aim, it finds itself the
posscssor of capital, the sole "ul-
time thule" offs efforts. 1t can
go no further it must stand still,
and to stand still or inert, is the
first step towards dissolution.
Man is a toiling, progressive
animal; he tolls, lie builds up and
when he has reached the summit
OF his pyramid, lie lays still, rots
and disappears.
Thus have families, peoples,
communities, Kingdoms and en-
pircs risen; 10 build and flourish,
and disappear.
1t is useless to quote history.
1t stands vivid with the begin
ming, increase and end of all
things human, and wherever you
turn, labor has been the conquer
OF, and hence the survivor; for
labor can alone rebuild and reac-
qUirc the capital that is lost.
The tenure of capital is so ephe-
neral, that an instant will sweep
it away; while ii took years to ac-
quire it.
Labor is self existing being the
positive heirloom of man from
God-man's destiny on earth.
The contention of capital against
labor can only be Of short dura-
ton, for all things must return to
the source from whence they
came; and as labor made capital,
therefore labor will always be the
ultimate absorber
How can capital conquer labor,
when it has to use labor to con-
quer il? And as all things of a
same nature will amalgamate,
hence, the very tools which CAPT
tai has to use, will turn against it,
and be ultimately its most dam
gerous enemies.
United labor masters the world.
and like the chained lion, it never
knows its strength, until it has
burst its letters.
To coerce it is but to strength
en- it. To attack it is but unite it.
All commissions which have
changed the nature and forms of
nations, have come from the up
heavings of tramplcd labor. From
q patient beast Of burden when
trodding its accustomed paths; it
becomes All unsuitable tiger, when
attacked in its lair. SELAH.

" The Democratic cry is that
the consumer pays the tax. Now,
let us take this single example ::
A farmer in Canada raises a crop
of barley worth $1,000, and an
American farmer does the same.
The Canadian farmer wants to
sell in this country in competi-
ton with the American farmer,
who has been paying taxes.
Now, would it be right to let the
Canadian have the same advan-
tage of the market with the
American No. The government
says to the Canadian you must
pay $3.50 at the custom house be-
fore you can come in. Doesn t
the Canadian pay the tax? IA

course he does. No proposition
can be palmer.

ious, if it is so good for the work
ingmen, if it is such a good thing

of you Benwood workingmen go

work? A voice: we couldn't

"Whosoever provideth not for his OWL
household is worse than an infidel.'
These women belong to households
which are not provided for They
live in free trade England. The men
in their families are not lawless nor in
different to their comfort. They cannot
with all their efforts earn enough money
to provide for the mere sustenance CT
those whom they love and would cherish.
But they are not to be blamed, for the
free trade laws by which they are gov
trned bring these results.
The American man of family has a
graver responsibility. He makes his
own laws.
The election of Grover Cleveland
would imperil the home of the American
workingman and those whom he has
vowed to care for in sickness or in death.
Every man who regards the happiness
of women should realize that Grover
Cleveland stands for unprotected homes,
and that Benjamin Harrison represents
the party which has pledged itself to
keep away free trade evils.

RDsK ON THE TARIFF.
The Secretary of Agriculture Tells VIII

The Secretary of Agriculture Tells Why
He Favors Protection.
The following is an extract from u
letter on protection and reciprocity re-
Gently written by the secretary of agri-
culture, Hon. J. NJ. Rusk:
On all articles except those we cannot
produce or manufacture ourselves under
any circumstances | would levy duty
sufficient TO make foreign goods cost,
when landed and duty paid in any port
of the United States, fully as much as
the cost of manufacturing the same goods
in this country amounts to; and this
believe in. without any reference to the
old accepted argument of Infant in
dustries."
would stick to this principle all the
way through, except only in the case of
foreign goods coming from countries
which could make such concessions on
American goods as would fully offset
any concessions we might make to them.
for am believer in reciprocity. In
fact, so long ago as April, 1890, in
communication which prepared to send
to all persons@and they were legion
who addressed lie on the subject of ag-
ricultural depression, | referred to the
advantages of reciprocity.
At the same time think it will very
seldom be found necessary to surrender
adequate protective duties ON any for
eign goods such as we can manufacture
in this country. Our reciprocal rela-
tons with countries i'll the temperate
zone, growing largely the same kind of
agricultural products and living under
comparatively the same conditions, will
always be very limited. But just as we
have exemplitied in the case of sugar, of
which at present we do not produce
quantity sufficient for our domestic sup
ply, so in regard to tea, coffee and spices,
which come to us from tropical or semi
tropical countries, there is a consider
able opportunity for the exercise of this
sound economic principle. would have
America buy these goods in countries
that buy American goods, putting duty
upon such as come to us from countries
that put duty upon our goods.
1t is American labor we want to pro-
tect, and American homes, and do not,
as consistent protectlonlSt, regard as
subject for free trade any article into
the production of which, in form avail
able for use, American labor enters. If
the conditions are such, for instance, in
Canada, that q Canadian farmer can
raise certain crops more cheaply than
we can, | would protect our American
farmers by putting such duty on these
products that Canadian farmers could
not undersell them. In the same man
ner | would protect our fruit growers
from Mediterranean fruits, and would
encourage the fiber industry in our own
country, so that eventually the bulk Of
our hemp, fax and other vegetable fibers
should be produced at home. l am for
the protection of the American laborer's
home and labor, but am equally intent
on protecting the American farmers
home and labor.

PoPUusTs SUPPORT HARRISON.
Mrs. Lease Recommends This in View o
Southern Treatment of Weaver

Mrs. Lease Recommends This in View of
Southern Treatment of Weaver.
A special to the Democratic New York
Times from Topeka, Kan, says:
The sensation of the day in Kansas is
the interview with Mrs. Lease, who has
been accompanying General Weaver in
his tour through the southern states.
She recites the indignities they were
subjected to and then declares that if a
vote for Weaver is in reality vote for
Cleveland in this state her desire is that
the Populists scratch their ticket and
vote for the Harrison electors.
Mrs. Lease is, next to Jerry Simpson,
the strongest leader of the Kansas Popu-
lists, and her expressed wishes have
caused great CONSERVATION not only in
her own party, but among the Demo-
Gratis.
She comedies every southern state to
Cleveland, and therefore at this late day
indicates her preference for Harrison.
Her advice will be followed by many,
but at this time it is impossible to say to
what extent.

MOLER'S AVENUE.

our School to give the last in
structions preparatory to the
Grand Parade. Fifty-two pupils
all in line of march made the
eyes of " LOT" sparkle with de-
light for she was proud of her
school and grateful to the gen
tlemen who walked over the
long, dusty road to instruct and
drill. After the drill the gentle
men joined in a play with the
boys and astonished and delight
ed them by a performance that
would have done credit TO one of
Barnum's celebrities. AT noon
Mr.. Samuel Bradshaw came into
the school yard holding in his
hands piece of smoked glass.
In an instant the whole school
surrounded him, each one clam
orously eager to see the Eclipse
and were all gratified with the
grand sight. There it was, a
great red ball of flame darkened
on it's upper surface by the
moons black face.
Friday came, with the grand
parade in honor of Columbus,
which exceeded even the most
extravagant expectation. Will a
child who was in that procession
ever forget the glorious hour.
May those who worked so earn
estly to make the parade a sue
cess thereby to enkindle in the
hearts of the thou
sands of children present a pa
triotic spark, that may grow toa
lifelong flame and love of loyal
ty to Country and Flag, may
they be rewarded by heaven for
they are public benefactors and
as such need not expect reward
here for earth never honors her
public benefactors as they de-
serve till they are dead. We
were pleased to see Tuscarora
School with their handsome ban
ner and handsome teacher (Mr.
Brown, marching in fine order.
We thank the pupils of Ridenour
School who were loyal to their
teacher and we would like to
know if the half who remained
out of the parade, because we
did not have a SILK banner with
name of school in gold to carry
feel elevated since they did not
furnish a five cent piece to pur-
chase a cotton one. Slowly,
slowly, do little children learn
and slowly, more slowly do a
large number of grown up chill
dren learn that clothing and
handsome equipage are of far
less value than truth, honor and
patriotism. The barefoot boy
who walked in the parade de-
serves far more credit than the
handsomely dressed one who
had no excuse for staying away.
God bless the little hero; it is
through such spirits that noble
deeds are done. From such boys
men grow who are their coun-
try's pillars and walls of defence
We expect nothing of the cow
ardly boy and girl who will hide
from duty and stink away from
a grand cause for trifles. One
excuse given for not appearing
was " the city children will call
us country Jakes, hayseed," &c.
Sure enough some who did not
know better did call out such
names, but the country children
marched on grandly with their
heads high and consciousness
of superiority, without deigning
a single reply, and l asked as l
looked, why are country children
so much better and purer than
large number of city children ?
And | said as | passed, if it were
not for the noble country boys
who are not afraid of work you
would not have food to fill your
empty stomachs or strength
enough to ridicule the hands that
feed you. LOT.
