Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1892-07-21

IN THE congressional Investigation
into the homestead troubles one i'm
portant statement of all the employees
put on the witness stand should be
noted, and that is, that the changing of
the scale of wages, as proposed by Car
negie, while it did not cut much off of
the wages, it made them CONDITIONAL
on the price of certain output of the
mills, viz: ''steel billets," and the price
of steel billets could be lowered to suit
the iron monopolists. Also notice that
the Carnegie men, when put on the
witness stand, refused to answer the
question as to what was the labor cost
of producing ''steel billets.' If the
actual cost of production was made
known it would be easy to understand
whether or not the selling price was
being manipulated to effect the scale
of wages therefore the Carnegie men
refused to enlighten the public on that
matter.

How IT does cut Kansas republicans
to think that there is now no hope of
saving the state for Harrison! For
months they have been bolstered up
with the hope that democrats would
put out straight ticket and help to
beat the peoples party; but now that
fond hope is blasted, and the g. o. p.
has not where to lay its head and find
consolation

democrat" the John Martin in ques-
ton is, the following from the Wichita
Beacon will explain:
1.-THE whole democratic party of Kan
sas will doubtless become de moralized
now that the Eagle has announced the
detection of Councilman John Martin.
Martin voted for Harrison four years
ago and has been republican office
holder ever since. The Eagle is becom-
ing the laughing stock of the town."

Hot winds in Kansas will not be
known this year. Never in the history
of the state have we had hot winds
when there were copious rains in the
middle of July. With no hot winds,
central and western Kansas will gather
the largest crop of corn this year that
this section has ever known. In the
eastern third of the state the corn crop
will not be SO great, because of too
much rain early in the season.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

CARNEGIE ought to be brought over
from his castle in Scotland and made
to testify before the congressional in
vestigating committee. One of the
things he ought to be compelled to tell
is: How much money he contributed to
the republican campaign fund in 1888,
and how much he promised Harrison
this trim?

A CHASTITY FIND,

A few days ago while a. G.. Richison
and Paddy" Ryan were out in the
woods. about half a mile from the vii
lage looking for some trees to set out
for shade, Mr.. Richison's eye was caught
by something glistening on the ground.
He poked the leaves away and found an
old silver ring laying among few dried
leaves. A closer inspection showed
some small pieces of a macinaw jacket
and some other clothes nearly all rotted
away and the grass growing up through
them. A few feet away he found an old
axe nearly eaten up with rust and the
handle entirely rotted away. Lying by
the axe was part of the jaw and some
other bones of wolf Or large dog.
Mr.. Richison was SO interested in his
discoveries that he went to town and
procured small box and gathered up
all of the remains, and they can now be
seen at the express office. The ring is
an old fashioned silver one, with heart
on top. The pieces of clothes found,
with the exception of the macinaw
jacket, appear rich and expensive.
From the appearances some lone
woodsman or trapper was met here by a
pack of hungry wolves and after killing
one or more of them with his axe. fell a
victim to their foreclosures.
Years have passed since then and
who the unfortunate victim was, will
probably never be known. In past
years number Of different persons
have gone into the woods and have new
er been heard from since by their
friends, and this find explains the sad
fate of one.

words to summarize the difference be-

Further comment on the reasons why

1t is less than two weeks before the
republican convention meets at Mime
apolis and, outside of the democratic
papers, it is almost impossible to see
the opposition to President Harrison.
If his opponents succeed in defeating
his nomination they will have to do
some tall hustling in the next few days.
It now looks as though he would re-
ceive the nomination on the first ballot
and that Cleveland would be similarly
honored by his partys convention at
Chicago.

were deceived. The importation of

Prices have steadily declined. Wages
have been generally maintained. Ag->
riculture has fourished. Money is
abundant. The rates of interest are
going down and prosperity seems to
have come to stay. The prophecies of

The Murder at the Mill.

CHESTER, Pa, March 15.-Coroner
Jeferies is pursuing his Investigations
in the poisoning case of the two Moore
boys, and an arrest will probably be
made before night. He visited the
Grocer mills, where the boys were en-
ployed, and secured important clews.
A sister Of the dead boys says that she
frequently found articles of food in her
brothers basket when they returned
from the mill that she did not place
there in preparing their lunch. This
has Significance that will require a
coroner's jury to explain, and the belief
is growing that the poisoning is the re-
suit of spite work, as the boys would
not rob their own lunch baskets. It is
known that young man in the mill
threatened to get even with parties
against whom he bore grudge, and the
coroner is following up this clew with
interest. The poisoning has created q
genuine sensation here.

GROVER CLEVELAND.
Leading Democrats Opinion of
-5.,-.. His Candidacy.
CONFIDENT THAT HE WOULD WIN.

William G. Whitney, MIR. CIevcIand's
Secretary of the Navy, Says There
Is Too Much Talk Mr.. Hewitt
Says Both Cleveland and Hill Are
Great Men.
NEW YORK, March ia number of
prominent Democrats were interviewed
by reporter of the United Press on the
subject of Mr.. Cleveland's candidacy.
Frederic r. Coudert, president of the
Manhattan club, and leading lawyer,
said: "Mr. Cleveland is undoubtedly
the most popular man in the United
States today. AT any gathering at which
he is present he is always first. He is
strong man, and his views are known.
He is u clean man; his record speaks for
itself. He is safe man, and has the
confidence Of the best men in his party.
He stands an excellent chance of OBJ
tanning the nomination, and if nomi-
mated he will win." ..-...
"Can he carry New York state?"
Eyes. He will receive almost the en-
tire Democratic vote and also many Re-
publican votes. He is strong in other
states, and is, in my opinion, the most
available man in the country today. He
is courageous man and a safe man.
People know that he would not en-
tangle the country in u war with any
foreign power. His policy is known
and the country would be safe under
him."
Ex-Secretary Of the Navy William c.
Whitney, who is a pronounced Cleve-
land man, declined to be interviewed,
saying: IF there We're less talk we
would have more harmony"
Nothing Succeeds Like Success"
Ex-Mayor A. S. Hewitt said: 81 pay
little attention to what is going on.
Nothing succeeds like success. When
Cleveland was president he was great
man. Now Hill has been very success
ful and he is great man. But notice
that most of the men L meet are Cleve-
land men. OF course Mr.. Cleveland is a
candidate. Any sane man would accept
the nomination if it was offered to him.
But what Mr.. Clevelands chances are |
could not say. He is popular man
among the people, but don't know that
he is among the politicians, and merit
does not always win i'll politics."
Senator Winton, Of New Jersey, one
of the best Democrats in that state,
said: "Cleveland can certainly carry
New York. He can carry New Jersey
by 5000 votes more than any other man
who can be named. Cleveland is the
only New York man whom we can elect.
If he will announce himself, and show
his friends that he is willing to make
tine fight, they will come out and work
for him. If this is done nothing can
prevent his election"
