Editor Journal In The Milwaukee Sentinel
OF October II / find an article on peck and
His eBad Boy" Seeing my name mentioned
there, / should thank you for allowing me, in
explanation, a few remarks on the subject.
The writer of th2t article tells story of
''welI-known Lutheran minister in this city"
(of Milwaukee, who apon finding his son read
ing 'Peck's Bad Bhy'' flung that wicked
book into the stove and from that moment
had his mind made '5p how he would vote at
the coming state election. Upon careful
perusafof this remarkable story, think there
is good reason to suspect that though it
claims to be founded on fact, it is nothing
but fiction composed rather for the purpose
of making political capital in view of the APP
preaching election than Cor promoting truth
and good morals. And 1 hope any serutiniz-
ing and unbiased readerrwill agree with me
in taking this view.
After telling his story The Sentinel proceeds
to reproduce q criticism Ont'Peck's Bad Boy
from The Lutherische SchClzeitung in which
published it in the year 1884, copyingit from
some California paper. The Sentinel sobject
in reproducing thi paper is again clear. Its
real aim is not to promote the cause of moral
education but simply to create prejudice
among the LTtherans against honest Gov.
Peck and to make political capital in the
present campaign.
1t is, therefore, hardly necessary for me to
say that still fully adhere to what has been
written in the said criticism i'm disappearing
''Peck's Bad Boy" Yet | wish. to state this
expressly because | am happy to know that
am Joined in this di5apprOvalj by no less a
person than the author of the"Bad Boy
himself. Therefore i seems to me but Just
scribe of younger years and Peck the ma
tured man, the far nfu and honest governor
of WiscOnsin-juSt a. fairness and justice re-
quires line between Saul and Paul, between
''Peck's Bad Boy" is now, as The Sentinel
correctly says, a long forgotten book But
if still some Lutheran father shOuld.happen
to find it in the hands of his young son, let
him unhesitatingly seize the wicked book and
cast it into the fire and tell the boy. There,
my son, that's exactly what Peck himself
wishes me to do with Els book. He condemns
it and has now become one of the best gov
errors Wisconsin ever had. Co. boy, and do
thou likewise.
In conclusion The Sentinel may rest as
sured that the Lutheran voters are not likely
to be diverted from voting for Gov. Peck by
means of ''Peck's Bad Boy"

Coal Trusts, Dear Coal, and the T ariff.

AS this is a campaign of education it
is incum bent on us to inform The Ga
zette that the tariff is not responsible
for the high price of coal, nor for the
existence of coal trust. The editor
ought to know that anthracite coal is
on the free list, aud that high prices
for it must be looked for to other causes
than the tariff On soft coal there is a
duty of IS cents ton, yet the price is
years, and there is no trust" So you
see, neighbOr, that the tariff has moth
ing to do with these trade cOmbina-
tions. If it had. the conditions would
be reversed and there would be a soft
coal trust, perhaps, while the present
one in anthracite would not be known.
These are facts with - hich The Gazette
should be familiar, but it will not men
ton them any more than it has told its
readers about Mr.. Barwig's vote in
congress against cheap sugar, for the
free coinage of silver and the 90 cent
dollar, for free wool and for free cotton
bagging and cotton ties, which The Ju-
neau Telephone says was given ''as a
measure of relief to the cotton growers
of the South" Again we beg to remind
The Gazette that it ought to print the
news

jefferson county's candidate, man OF
the people and for the people, who is
very Justly entitled to and deserving of
the wide popularity he enjoys.
Whenever and wherever tried Mr..
Blu .ock has always sought to serve the
people with fidelity and honesty Of
purpose. In testimony of this we
need but refer to the mannerln which
he guarded the interests of the tax
payers while filling the important of
fee of sheriff of this county Figures
talk strongly and unerringly for Mr..
Bullock. The office of sheriff for the
term of the years 1885 and 1886 cost
Jefferson county $9,S60.23. Bullock's
term for the years 1887 and 1888 cost
Jefferson county 5569.41, gain for
the taxpayers of 81 ,290,S2 during Mr..
Bullock's administration of just two
years. AS member of the legislature
he was governed by the same purposes
and motives, being faithful and untir-
ing in his services for not only his Own
constituency but the people OF the
whole state And to the. citizens of
Waterfowl it might not be out of place
here to say that while inthe Assembly
Mr.. Bullock was always-a firm and con-
sistent friend of this city when help
was Deeded in withstanding the ma
chinations, assaults, and schemes of
her enemies. the bondholders. 1t can
be said without fear of contradiction
that the jefferson county representa-
tive is only fair sample of the makeup
of the Republican state ticket from J. G.
Spooner for governor, to j. Z. Heg for
insurance commissioner and all are
worthy of such support as will leave
no doubt of their triumphant election.

Prof Notz and "Peck's Bad Boy"

Prof Notz and "Peck's Bad Boy
At the request of Doctor Notz we
make room for his defense in support
of Gov. Peck, the author OF book
which the doctor at the time of its pub
LEGATION pronounced a vile and repre-
hensible work. 1t will occur to most
people, we think, that the doctor makes
a very lame apology for himself, equal
led only in absurdity by the one he
pleads for Gov. Peck-that the writing
of the book by Peck was simply one of
his youthful indiscretions, he being at
that time callow youngster of only 43
years, full Of frivolity and nonsense, of
whom nothing better could be expect
ed because of his tender age. Such
nonsense as this will hardly pass cur
rent as a good and substantial reason
why Peck's ofense against morality
should be condoned, and nobody but
a partisan, deaf to all argument, would
take shelter behind such a fimsy pre-
text However, as DR.. NOtz has asked
that his excuse, such as it is, shall be
printed, we give it d place, though for
his sake we wish it were a better and
more reasonable one.

This combination of circumstan-
ces rarely occurs oftenor than once
in ten years, yet it is the only
thing that has saved us from n ma
tional financial disaster.
With an excess of $iG2,OOO,O9O of
exports, we answered Europc's de-
mand on us for food for which Eu-
rope has paid us with our own Sc
curities.
Unfortunate investments in
South America have curtailed the
financial resources of the EurOp-
can centers and this forced the re-
turn of merican securities to
American markets.
This would have drawn from us
gold and silver in such quantities
as to have disturbed all business
relations. In fact, the drain of gold
to Europe began in 1890, and reach
ed large proportions. Except for
our large crops, this drain would
have continued, but conditions
changed, and Europe was glad to
take grain, which it needed more
than gold.
Instead of receiving gold for our
grain we have been paid the "bal-
ance" in ocean freight, and in our
securities, and the expected return
of gold did not take place.
Manifestly some good fortune
has saved us from disaster. The
enormous exactions of the McKin.
ley law checked imports of vast
number of manufactured articles,
more valuable to us than our secu-
rites, but it put no duty on securi.
ties, and 50 our foreign friends sent
them.
A modification of the Mckinley
act is imperative. 1t is menace
alike to commerce, to agriculture
and to manufacturing industry. 1t
is Il tax on labor in the field or fac
tory. 1t obstructs the natural
channels of exchange. 1t worries
and harasses and impairs the very
forces working for the restoration
Of general prosperity in America,
and spreads uncertainty to every
branch Of commerce. The contest
against the robber tariff framed by
Mckinley must be waged with
greater zeal and determination
than the Democratic party ever
waged war against the tariff act OF
1888, for it is more injurious and
more certain to bring disaster.
If Mr.. Harrison is reelected the
panic of 1878 will be repeated in
1898 or 1894.
Down with the Mckinley tariff

Sugar in Nnr'n.

Courier Journal.l
We find the following dialogue
floating around among the Repub-
lican exchanges credited to the
Oskaloosa HerdJd:
Farmer-What are you doing,
young man?
Clerk-Waiting on you. Weigh
ing out your sugar.
Farmer-How much are you Civ
ing me?
Clerk-A dollars worth.
Farmer-Yes, l know; but how
many pounds?
Clerk-Twenty-four.
Farmer-Twenty-four! Why il
used to be only fourteen.
Clerk-Yes, but Mckinley did it
Farmer-Well, run her back and
give me only fourteen pounds. II
/ took home twenty-four pounds OF
sugar for & the old woman would
make me vote the Republican tick,
ct, and III be hanged if Ill do that
This is very good as far as il
goes. But how was it that the pas.
sage Of the McKinley bill enabled
the farmer to buy ten more pounds
of sugar for a dollar now than be.
fore the passage of that act?
The Republican idea of recipro-
city is to cheaper the cost of liv'
ing in foreign countries and in
crease the cost Of living to o !
own people. The Honduras treaty
makes that point very clear.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1892-05-07

on sugar to that eXteat.
Manifestly, If the abolition of
the tariff on sugar lowered the
price of sugar, that is increased
the quantity that the purchaser
gets for 81, the abolition of tariff
on wooden clothes, on carpets, blan-
kets, on kitchen utensils, etc,
would also lower their price, that
is, increase the quantity that 81
would purchase.
The farmer in this dialogue thus
oVerthrows the whole argument
upon which the Mckinley acts rest.
The Mckinley bill, according to
the statement of its author, was
drawn for the purpose of checking
imports, that is, of taxing and pun
ishing persons who insisted upon
buying foreign goods. But the
Mckinley act made q notable eX-
ception on sugar. Instead of pun
ishing people for buying sugar
abroad it removed all obstacles to
its purchase by reducing the tariff
on raw sugar, making it almost
free. The consequence is that the
price decreased as the iIAports in
creased and the consumption OF
sugar has been greatly augmented.
In other words the abolition of the
tariff on sugars added immensely
to the comforts of the sugar consul
mer. The logical conclusion from
this statement is that the same
treatment of wool and woolens, OF
tin-plate and the materials made
from tin-plate, of steel and the i'm
plements made from steel, would
be equally beneficial to the Ameri.
can consumer.
