The Tonsils.

We have arrived at Il fair solution of the

the work, among other duties possibly, OF

and duties. and organs which discharge
these duties would naturally decline and
appear before us as useless parts when the

PURE DEMOCRACY.

The kind that made our country one
OF the greatest powers among nations,
is what is now needed to combat the
crisis prophesied by that true patriot,
Abraham Lincoln, who said:
We may all congratulate ourselves
that the cruel war is nearing its close. 1t
has indeed been a trying hour for the
Republic: But [ see in the near future
crisis arising that unnerves me and
causes me to tremble for the safety
OF my country. AS result of the
war, corporations have been enthroned
and an era Of corruption in high places
will follow. The Money Power of the
country will endeavor to prolong its
reign by working upon the prejudices
of the people until all wealth is ag-
gregated in a few hands, and the
Republic destroyed. l feel at this
moment more anxiety for the safety
of my country than ever before, even
in the midst Of war"
There is no Disgusting the fact, that
the condition now confronts us which
caused the patriot Lincoln so much
anxiety.
A money power controls political
parties and all important elections,
placing its agents in high places of
honor and trust.
The same power controls all legis-
lation and dictates what shall be the
law Of the land, a result made possible
and easy by working upon the preju-
dice Of the people through the medium
Of the public press, of which ninety
nine out of every hundred are either
owned in full or part, or controlled by
its agency.
The political contest Of 1892 will
again test the strength Of this money
power, different from previous efforts
only in its greater virulence and ability
to deceive.
Like an oasis in the desert, the
Cincinnati Weekly Enquirer rises
equal to the emergency, placing before
its readers unbiased truth and facts
SO harmful to corruptionists' plans, and
beneficial to the people. "Truth is
mighty and will prevail" is the En-
quirer platform. It is always great
comfort to read the Enquirer.

A Clever Yankee.

On the United States side of the line
at Nogales, Arizona, eggs have been
rendered dear by the new tariff upon
them, inasmuch as the hens of that re-
gion are chiefly owned on the Mexican
side and fed with cheap Mexican grain.
A shrewd Yankee recently arrived
there, and he was convinced that his
opportunity lay in the high price of
eggs; so he erected large hen house
exactly across the boundary line. AT
the United States end he provided
nests, and at the other end he fed his
hens the low priced Mexican grain.
The hens ate the grain in Mexico and
then walked across the line into the
United States to lay their eggs. The
transaction was perfectly honest, fol
the Yankee smuggled neither grain mol
eggs. He is making money fast.

POWDERLY ON HOMESTEAD.
No Love for WOrkmen Among Demo.
cratic Editors.

Partisan papers are endeavoring to
make political capital out of the terri
BILE scenes which took place at Home
stead the other day. The Democratic
papers are vehement in their denuncia-
ton of the Republican party for enact
ing tariff law under which protection
was afforded to manufactures. There
is no love for workmen in the hearts of
these editors; desire to serve party in
terests alone actuates them. Let us re.
view the situation in brief. Tariff laws

and in all of the debates which took
place in Congress over the Mills and
Mckinley bills can not find that sim
gle amendment was offered by Demo.
crat to give the workman q certain
portion of the tariff when collected.
The Mills bill and the Mckinley bill
differ very little in the duty on steel
rails, plates, etc. One was Democrat
bill, the other'a Republican. The Nc
Kinley bill reduced the duty on the
articles manufactured at Homestead,
and Democratic papers, in asserting
that the trouble at that point is due to
the Mckinley bill, are but condemning
the very thing that they themselves ad-
vocate and on which they base their
claim to power-a reduction of the tar
| iff. The Pinkerton existed before the
Mills bill was introduced in Congress,
and that institution continues to -four
ish now that the Mckinley bill is in
force. Whether the tariff went up or
down, disputes between employer and
employed would continue. Working
men are not the fools that politicians
believe them to be, for we do not feel
that the coming of the millennium de-
pends upon the way Congress legislates
on the tariff.
If our Democrats who are so eager to
make political capital out of this diff
Guilty will lend me their ears l will
whisper to them that Representative
Watson, of Georgia, has had q measure
before Congress for the last four or five
months which aims at the abolition of
the Pinkertons as a factor in the indus
trial life of the United States. The
Democratic party has sweeping ma
jority in Congress; it has full knowl-
edge of the acts of the Pinkertons on
previous occasions. l have presented
evidence enough to Congress to prove
that Pinkerton is an enemy to American
liberty. ThatDemocratic majority has
a knowledge of the existence Of Wat
sons bill, and it has up to the present
time dilled and dallied with it, and has
no idea of passing it. 1--WE have peti,
