will remain with us while life shall
last. Their horror is simply indie
scribable. He pictures the souls of
the redeemed leaning over the battle
ments of heaven and looking down
into the lake of fire and birthstone,
which seems to have been arranged
with a special view OF sffording them
this exquisite pleasure, and cOntem-
plating the horrors of the everlasting
burning. In one of these sermons he
says: "The tortures of the damned
will enhance the joys Of the saints for
ever"
These glorifed saints are thus pic
tured as viewing with the most ex-
quisite delight the smoke of the tor
ments of the damned as it ascends
upward before them forever and for
ever; and he says, "as deeper groan
comes up from the pit of woe, a
louder shout will ring through the
courts OF heaven"
Such deprsvity of imagination,
such refinement of cruelty is not con-
ceivsble in this enlightened nine
teenth century outside the little
coterie of Republican journalists who
are endeavoring to teach the debt
ridden, mortgsge-cursed people Of
Kansas, who are depriving themselves
and their families of the very neCes-
sites of life in order to pay their an
nual tribute to the Shylocks, that
they should rejoice in the fact that
others are still more destitute than
themselves. And when we reflect
that this teaching is solely for the
purpose Of perpetuating the power Of
the corrupt political party, which is
responsible for all this misery and
want, the depth of human depravity
is all the more to be abhorred.

MONEY I'm CIRCULATION.

f1In 1866, It appears,
the circulation was
S2O.67 per capita, while
q year ago 1t was $23.45
and this year ills $24 30.
But our correspondent
will remember that In
1865, the average de-
probation Of the cur
rency was such that It
required S157 to buy as
much as 800 In gold
would buy, whereas to-
day, and ever since
1878, any United States
dollar will buy as much
as q dollar In gold.
Comparing the cirCular
tiOn In 1865 with that OF

not 800 81, but only

REPUBLICAN JOURNALISM PROFICIENT
IN SPECIALTTES.

IN SPECIALTIES.
Ifthere is one department of hu-
man effort in which Republican jour
nalism has become proficient, it is in
the perversion of evidence and OF
facts so as to make them seem to JUS
tify the past record Of that party, and
present existing conditions under
false colors. We are led especially
to this reflection at the present time
by the perussl Of a Washington
special to the Kansas City Journal,
that most devout idolator of plutocra-
cy and avowed enemy Of labor.
The subject of this special is Mr..
Porter's census bulletin relating to
the increase Of tenant farmers In
Kansas and Ohio. The fact of such
increase cannot be denied. Itsppears
in the bulletin in cold figures.
What, then, is to be done? II will
never do to let the people believe
that Kansas and Ohio farmers are
becoming tenants upon the farms
they formerly owned. 0, horror!
That would be calamity; and, worst
Of all, Mr.. Porter would be RESPONSE
BILE for it. How escape from this di-
lemmaG The Journal specialist has
discovered "the way out" and here
it is:
An important disclosure Of this investigation
Is the drift Of farm laborerS into farm tenantry.
In these counties in Kansas 1t seems that the
proportion Of hired farms In 1880, was 1918 per
cent and that the proportion Of farm hiring
families in 1890 was 1926 per cent, while In the
Ohio counties the percentage OF hired farms In
1880 was a. 96 and Of farm hiring families In 1890
$40. In other words, whereas In 1880 1t was
more the custom for farmers to hire men as
labOrers at monthly wages to work on thelT
farms, In 1s90it was more the custom for the
owners to set aside portions Of the farms for let
ting to tenant farmers, who had previously been
farm lsborers at monthly wages.
Nothing marks the hOpefulneSs Of American
life more strongly than this upward tendency Ol
the agricultural classes The question has been
raised, with somewhat gloomy forebOdlngS
whether conditions In this country were not ere
atlng permanent agricultural peasantry; bui
lt may be concluded, II the 6gnres for the whole
country are comparatively similar to these, thai
the agricultural labOring population is not per
msnently fixed In It's position, but Is rising from
condition Of employment to one of Independent
labor, with qualified proprietorshlp In the
soil.
Does Mr., Porter say anything
about farm lsborers rising in the
scale to the dignity (f of farm ten
ants? Not a word of it. On the CON
trary, this increase of tenant farmers
is treated in direct connection with
the subject Of farm mortgages; and
Mr.. Porter knows very we'll that it Ii

cages and the sale of farms under thu

aware OF it.
Who does not know that a syndi-
cate was organized in the city Of To-
peka a year or so ago for the special
purpose of taking in the Kansas
farms thus summsrily disposed Of by
the sheriffs Of the state and securing
tenants to occupy and work them?
This fact was well advertised at the
time, and is we'll known to-day. The
syndicate is composed of we'll known
gentlemen who make no effort to dis
guise their organization or their pur-
poses. We are not gong to condemn
these gentlemen. They are only TAX
ing advantage Of existing conditions
which the people themselves have
been voting for 10, these many years,
to develope and perpetuate; and
these gentlemen must not be blamed
for availing themselves of the advsnt-
ages which the people have been vot-
ing into their hands. Farmers should
get out behind the cow shed and kick
themselves for being the fools they
have been for doing this kind of vot-
ing. When they stop it the organizs-
tion of these syndicstes will stop
also.
But we are wandering. We were
calling attention to the perversion by
the Journal specialist of the facts
that appear in Mr.. Porter's bulletin.
Nothing can be more apparent or
more bsre-faced than this perversion.
II is willful. It is Intentional. It is
malicious. Instead of recognizing
actual conditions and discussing
practical remedies, the Journal seeks
to deceive the people respecting the
true import of Mr.. Porter's figures;
and the worst feature of the case is
that this is only one instance of a set
tied policy of modern Republican
journalism. In the idolatrous wor-
ship Of party these teachers ~ OF the
people seek to perpetuate the power
of q political organization even at the
sacrifice of American homes-the very
foundation upon which rests the
whole fabric of American institu'
tions, and American patriotism.
There is another feature worthy Of
attention in the Journals special,
and this feature is alike manifest in
western Republican journalism in
general. It is endeaVored to console
the people Of Kansas, who are mani
testing great unrest under existing
conditions, by telling them how much
better their condition is than that OF
people in some other localities. This
is like comforting the man who is
bare footed by pointing to another
man who has neither shirt nor boots
What element of manhood can en-
ter into the makeup Of of man who
can derive satisfaction from the refec
tion that he has enough to eat, while
his neighbor is hungry, or that he ii

Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1892-07-30

Old regular army officers will remem-
Der Gen. Magruder as handsome, gal
liant fellow, with tendency to assume
airs of superiority.
An officer who served on Magru1er's
staff near Yorktown in 1s62 delights to
tell the following story ON his old com
uander:
We had our headquarters at the
house of wealthy widow of strong
Southern sympathies that induced her
to do anything in her power for the
boys in gray. One day gaunt private
soldier. with red hair and straw-col-
ored whislSers, and the dust of a weeks
march on his face and clothes, stopped
at the house and said to the lady;
Madam, I'm most nigh played out
with hunger, can get bite OF dinner
here?''
Certainly" was the reply, 'but as
am preparing dinner for Gen. Magru-
der and his staff, and have not room at
my table for even one more, you will
have to wait for the second table,
THANK you, ma'am, said the sol
der, as he smacked his lips in anticipa-
ton of a hearty meal; faint the
number of the table care so much for
as the amount of grub"
The lady went away, and the soldier
took position near the dining room
door, where he could watch the move
ments of the servants and regale his
expanding nostrils on the odor of
dishes carried past
At length the bell rang. and unable
to resist the temptation, or it may have
been obedience 10 the profound modestv
that is ever SO characteristic of the old
soldier. the man made break for the
commissary and took seat near the
head of the table.
The way the private soldier ate sur
prised even old campaigners. He went
at it AMI kept at it, not as if it were a
pleasure, but the most serious bust
ness of his life.
When the last course came, and
while the unexpected guest was quietly
letting out his belt two more holes, the
General turned to him with scowl
and asked:
'Sir, have you any idea with whom
you are dining?"
without looking up or ceasing in the
work OF adjusting his belt to meet the
demands of the dessert, the soldier
drawled out:
'Wa'al, no. ulster be mighty par
ticular on that score. but sence this
doggon wah began l don't lSeer cuss
who eat with-pervidin the victuals
is clean and there's enough to 90
lound.''
Magruder had good sense to join in
the laughter hat greeted this sally.
Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1892-07-30

There are heroes of the late war, less
well-known than Grant, sherman and
Sheridan, whose names are yet worthy
a place in every loyal heart. One of
them, Quartermaster-Gene Mont
gomery c. MeigS died not long ago.
OF him it could be said that from the
beginning of his career rs cadet at
West Point, until his simple military
funeral he had never been repri-
manded, and had never had an action
questioned by his snperiors.
Through his hands during the wan
passed an immense amount of govern
ment funds, but every cent was ac-
counted for, and he left TO his children
the priceless legacy of spotless name.
A correspondent of The Companion
found among her fathers papers, over
which she and her brother were look
ing, a letter that was absolutely unde-
cipherable. Indeed il was a question
rs to what language it was written in.
After long and fruitless study, they
passed it on TO various friends, bnt the
case was hopeless.
Some weeks after in Washington,
they were talking with Gen. +. D.
Townsend, classmate and dear friend
of their fathers, and the question of
handwriting happened to come up.
The General pronounced Spinners fa-
nous chirography plain as print be-
side that of Gen. Meigs, especially
''when he was in n hurry-then he
himself found it impossible TO read il
overnight"
MY brother and looked at each
other" says our correspondent, "and l
ran MP to my room and brought down
our mysterious letter. II was indeed
the hand of my fathers old friend
Meigs Gen. Townsend studied il
thoughtfully, right side up, wrong side
up; then he said: My dear Meigs was
in one of his worst hurrys when he
wrote thisr The letter is among our
treasures, but what it says man will
never know"
During the war, paper from Gen.
Miegs passed through the hands OF
Gen. sherman, and is to-day pre-
served with this endorsement upon it
in Gen. Sherman's well-known
hand:
II heartily concur in the rScommen-
dation of quartermaster-general. but J
don't know what he says"
