WHERE IT Is DRIFTING.
The Republican Party Becoming IL
Servant of Monopoly.

The Republican Party Becoming the
Servant of Monopoly.
No truer word has ever been spoken
in regard to the tendencies of the two
great parties of this country than the
following sentence by Carl Schurz in
his recent letter:
1.-The more strongly the Republican
party adheres to its leading principle
and policy, the more corrupt it will be-
come and the more baneful in its infu-
ence as an agency of political demorali-
zation, while the Democratic party, the
more strongly it clings to its leading
principle, the stronger will it become
morally and the healthier its influence
upon our political life"
The leading principle of the Repub-
lican party has come to be the highest
possible tariff taxation that the people
will put up with. AS this tariff taxa
ton builds up trusts and monopolies ut
terly opposed to the interests of the peo-
pie, the party fostering these combina-
tons of greed and oppression must in
evitably drift away from all sympathy
with the people and fall under the dom
nation Of a grasping plutocracy. 1t
cannot escape this tendency if it would,
for it is not in human nature to resist
the pressure of the enormous influences
with which the Republican party sur
rounds itself through its policy Of farm
ing out the taxing power to private cor
porations and individuals.
Add to this the fact-which the IA
nous fat circular" SO clearly demon
strated four years ago-that the party
which deals out public wealth to private
parties will naturally look to those pri-
vate parties for money to carry elections,
in order to continue its policy of govern
ment favoritism, and one easily sees
why the Republican party must grow
more and more corrupt, must become
more and more the tool of it's tariff ben
efciaries.
That this once great party has become
the obedient servant of those bene-
| fciaries is fact which any voter can
prove for himself. 1t requires no process
| Of difficult reasoning. Let any one take
a copy of the hearings before McKin-
ley's committee and compare the duties
| there asked for by the manufacturers
with those actually incorporated into
the Mckinley law, and he will see with
his own eyes the proof of this corrupt
| allegiance between the Republican party
and its pets and favorites. He will see
| that the SO called lawmakers of that
party in the Fifty-frst congress aban.
doned their functions as legislators and
| turned them over to those favorites.
Is not this corruption of the most fla.
grant and wide reaching kind? Can
liberty and freedom survive in coun
try where equal justice is thus bartered
for political gain by party which ex
lists solely upon the good will and fnan.
cial support of its powerful favorites?
But. the Democratic party, with its
creed of equal rights to all and favor
itism to none, easily escapes the cor
rupting influences which are dragging
the Republican party to its death. n

The Case in a Nutshell.

It is probably true that if every bust
ness man in city was required to pay
tax of one dollar annually, to be put
in the pockets of some large manufac-
turer employing a considerable number
of men, it might add something to the
general prosperity of the city, provided
the subsidized manufacturer should ex-
pend the contribution in advancing the
wages of his workmen or in expanding
his business, but the benefits realized
would be so slight as well as precarious,
and the scheme is so inherently i'm
proper, that the experiment would be
unsatisfactory. Robbery is none the
less Objectionable even though the
whole people receive an equal share of
the booty. Every honest community
should protest against such an Ubiquitous
system; and the policy Of addition,
division and silence" while it may be
acceptable to Republicans in Pennsyl-
vania, will not be adopted by honest
men elsewhere.-Senator Hill at Buffalo.

Fail to do Their DUTY.

Everybody has at times failed to dc
their duty towards themselves. Humid
reds Of lady readers suffer from sick
headache, nervousness, sleeplessness
and female troubles. Let them follow
the example of Mrs. II. Rerbechter,
Stevens Point, Wis, who for five years
suffered greatly from nervous prostra-
ton and sleeplessness, tried physicians
and different medicines without sue
cess. But one bottle Of DR.. Miles
Nervine caused sound sleep every
night and she is feeling like a new
person. Mrs. Elizabeth Wheeler, Lar
annie City, Wyoming. who tried all
other remedies, declares that after
three weeks use of the Nervine for
Headache, Nervous Prostration, ETC.,
she was entirely relieved. Sold by
w. H. Prideaux. Trial bottle free.

it may be taken for granted that the
wages quoted are the highest. What do
the American people think of paying
two prices for everything they wear in
order that skilled workmen may draw
the munificent stipend of ten dollars a
week, about the same wage as that of
the lowest paid laborer in the unpro-
tected mills in Minneapolis? Do they
believe from this exhibit that the tariff
tax levied on them is divided with the
workingman in wages, or must they
echo the regret Of Candidate Harrison,
"that all employers are not consider

We want every mother to know that
Group can be prevented. True Group
never appears without warning.
The first symptom is hoarsenss; then
the child appears to have taken cold
or a cold may have accompanied the
hoarsenesss from the start. After
that peculiar rough coat is devel-
oped, which is followed by the Group.
The time to act is when the child first
becomes hoarse. A few doses of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will
prevent the attack. Even after a
rough cough has appeared, the dis
ease may be prevented by using this
remedy as directed. For sale by r.

Making Cigars Under McKinIe,ism.

The Cigar Makers International union
has declared boycott against the prod
uct of one of our largest cigar manufac-
turing firms because that firm is said
"to pauperize cigar makers" But if it
be true that that firm ''pauperizes cigar
makers" where is the Protection to be
found-Protection with capital P-of

Or is the pauperizing of the cigar maker
the direct result of the promised but
not realized protection to the tobacco

New Mining Company.

The Montfort Monitor.
Messrs. Brown of Marinette and
Lonbird of Milwaukee were here this
week, looking after the interests of
the Montfort Mining company, which
has organized into a stock company,
with capital Of $4,000. The mines
are about mile and one-half east of
town, on land owned by Mr.. Lauffen-
berg. They are we'll pleased with the
prospects, and the future of the COM
pany looks bright indeed. Mr.. John

as the main concern of the legislator it
acts for the best interests of the whole
people, and it keeps itself in sympathy
with them, for the consumers of this
country are the whole people; and il
refusing to use legislative power to pro-
mote the schemes of private parties at
public expense it exposes itself to no
entangling alliances with plutocracy
and falls under no subservience to it.
The Democratic party must live and
grow; the Republican party will decay
and die.

would be punished by her next day for
some sin of omission or comission.
On Friday she attempted to punish the
boy, who resisted, and with the aid of
his sister, who is fifteen years old, the
teacher was struck, kicked and her
hair was pulled The children claimed
to be acting under instructions from
their father, who is a member of the
school board. Miss Garner and 3. T.
Likens, another member Of the board,
were in the city Monday, when they
had District Attorney Cleary draw up
complaint against the children.
That district should employ Jim Cor
bett as a teacher for time, if such
occurrences are common.

A Very Harmonious Convention.

The Darlington Democrat
The democratic county convention
held in this city last Tuesday was one
of the most harmonious and enthu-
sistic conventions ever held in the
county. 1t was entirely free from
any fractional or ring manipulation
which is shown by the fact that six
out of the ten candidates were nom
mated by reclamation, two Of the
others on the first ballot, one on the
second, and the other on the fourth
formal ballot. The ticket is a good
one and should receive the support OF
every democrat.

TIE Palma Wheelmen did not effect a
permanent organization last night. The
application to the Board of Trustees for

will grant the request of the bicyclisJs.
The wheelmen will convene after the
trustees have adjourned and COM
plete the organization. 1t will
be a success. That was evident
by the attendance and enthusiasm shown
last night. The Committee on Wheels
made no report but referred to the num-
Der of circulars that had been received

ket. A few sent very handsome cata-

not completed it's work but will have q

independent Institution. They desire to be
regarded as club department and under
