Dell Rapids Times, Is: The
Times being a protectioaist, is in
favor Of protecting all BENEFICIAL and
legitimate home industries, locally
and nationally. But it is somewhat
surprised that the Sioux Falls
Argus-Leader, the avowed enemy oil
protection in any form, should ad-
vocate the protection OF Sioux Falls
merchants and INDUSTRIES. either
by law or patriotism. II the Argus
Leader is really opposed to the prin.
ciple Of protection, it is inconsistent
in trying to persuade the people Of
Sioux Fails to protect their home
industries. II it is right to open our
markets to the world, 1t would seem
that Sioux Falls markets ought to
be wide open also. Carrying the
free trade theory into their local
business, the people of Sioux Falls
ought to buy in the cheapest mar.
ket, whether it is in London, New
York or Sioux Falls. OF course we
believe the Argus Leader is right in
advocating the protection of home
industries, butif it is right in this
it must be wrong in its opposition to
national protection, which is certain
~ the same in principle as local pro-
lection.

Only Sixty Tears.

1t is sixty years this blessed eigh-
teen hundred and nenety-two, since
the Democrats have reelected a
president. Since that election of ,32
they have elected five presidents,
but not one has succeeded himself,
aud only one out of ive-Franklin
Pierce-has been immediately sue
ceeded by a Democrat. And this
single succeeding one was James
Buchanan, a Pennsylvania protec-
zionist! One term Of Democracy at
a time. and the times pretty we'll

How Do You Like 1T

Since 1862 the annual pension
disbursements have increased from
$79O,384 to t125, 100000, and the
total amount paid out since and in
Guiding 1861 aggregates 81 ,492, 2G2,-
163. This is a tremendous expense,
and it suggests, as it means heavy
taxation Nanktm State Journal
(Dcm.)
There never was q better thing
for the country than the payment
OF the pensions, aside from the con-
sideration that it is compromising a
man for the best years Of his life
and q broken constitution. $35, OlO,-
600 is the magnificent amount put
into the channels Of trade every
three months, by the payment pen
slons. Ifsome get u pension whose
disease has resulted from their own
vicious habits, who knows but those
habits were formed in the separa-
ton from the refining influences Of
home during the long years spent
in the exposures Of camp and field?
A mar who complains Of the bur-
den Of pensions is neither an econo-
mist nor a liberal man. Shame on
any man who condemns generous
pensions. Give us more; the coun.
try will be better for it.

This is nothing more than q gi-
