tough and durable, vet soft enough
to afford the horse a relief unknown
with the ordinary shoe. The shoe Is
fastened to the hoof By four nails
driven through the rope on each side.
The tarred rope resting on the pave
ment gives the horse a firm grip on
the ground. and as It makes the
shoe murh lighter and Infinitely more

advantage Is readily apparent. The

In regard to tariff the farmers are
equally anxious as is shown by informa-
tion received here. Not only have their
sales to other countries increased enor-
mously since the passage of the Mckinley
law, but the home market has greatly in
creased. The importations of farm
products of the class produced in this
country were greatly restricted by the
increased duties placed upon this class
of articles by the Mckinley law. An Of
ticial statement issued by the treasury
department shows that the importations
of this class of articles which could he
produced by the farmers of this country
were reduced $50 900, 900 in the first full
year of the new tariff as against the
last full year of the old tariff.

SOME OF THE REASONS
Why You Should Vote Against Cleveland
Explained.

Explained.
First-When it came to vigorous as
sertion Of our rights in Behring sea un-
der his administration, Mr.. Cleveland
dropped humbly on his knees before the
British lion.
Second-Because if you are an artisan
the economic policy he is pledged to car
ry out, the policy to which his party has
committed itself, will bring you to the
ragged condition of the British free
trade mechanics.
Third-How can you vote for q dou
BILE action presidential combination like
Cleveland and Stevenson? The team
does not pull together. One is plowing
in the political furrow Of tariff reform,
civil service and gold, while the other is
pulling the old Democratic cart in the
direction of free silver and spoils. Be-
tween them you do not know where you
will fetch up.
Fourth-Because with his free trade
knife he is trying to kill the goose Of
protection that has laid the golden egg
Of prosperity for the United States.
Fifth-If Mr.. Cleveland's soldier sub
stitute were running for the presidency
you could as patriot find several good
and sufficient reasons for voting for him;
but what reason can you adduce for
voting for the man who, in youth and
vigor and unlike Harrison, did not have
the courage to 60 to the front? Mr..
Cleveland never heard a shot fred in
anger, but he vetoed more old soldier
pension bills than any president from
Washington down. That is his great
war record. He slaughtered veterans
by the hundred.-New York Recorder.
Brookings register. (Brookings, S.D.) 1890-1894, 1892-09-16
No Danger Sign Needed Here.

This is the clause of the national Re-
publican platform which is said to fill
the souls of Democratic editors and
voters with alarm about "the force bill. !"
Read it carefully:
We demand that every citizen of the United
States shall be allowed to cast one free and
unrestricted ballot in all public elections, and
that such ballot shall be counted and re-
turned as cast; that such laws shall be
enacted and enforced as will secure to every
citizen, 10 he rich or poor, native or foreign
born, white or black, this sovereign right
guaranteed by the constitution. The free and
honest popular ballot, the just and equal rep
resentation of all the people, as we'll as their
just and equal protection under the laws, are
the foundation of our republican institutions,
and the party will never relent In its efforts
until the integrity of the ballot and the purity
of elections shall be fully guaranteed and pro-
tected in every state.

Mr.. James Moons Experience Buying
Stuff for Trousers.
Here is free trade item that will in
terest the venerable James Moon, who
has retired from his farm near Lake
Vile and lives in the suburbs of South
Bend. On Jan. 10, 1859, in those good
old Democratic days when Buchanan
was president and there was no Re
publican robber tariff" Mr.. Moon came
to South Bend from his Union township
farm and bought material for pair of
pants. All wool goods were then so
high priced that he bought satinet, a
cloth made of cotton warp and woolen
filling, which is rarely sold in these days
of low priced all wool goods.
Mr.. Moon bought 315 yards of satinet
at IS cents yard; * yards Of drilling
at 1919 cents yard, IA buttons for IA
cents and skein of linen thread at 5
cents; total, SO. He then had to pay
for having the pants made by tailor,
or get them made at home. Today
under a protective tariff, he can buy
satinet at so cents yard and less. He
can buy a pair of ready made satinet
pants from $1.25 to s2.
The Tribune has not trusted to Mr..
Moons memory for these prices, but
taken them right from the merchants

M'kINlEY TALKS.
What He Says About the Situation In
the West and South.

Governor Mckinley is confident of
Republican success. On recent visit to
New York he was asked if there is any
prospect of Republican losses IN the
west.
"Oh, not the least" was the answer.
"They are Republican states and they
cannot be carried by the Democrats. l
was in Madison, Wis, at a meeting some
time ago, and the feeling then was that
the Republicans would surely carry the
state"
"Is there any danger in Iowa or Ne
braska?'
"There is not. The Republicans will
win both those states. At the meeting
in Lincoln, Neb., where l spoke on Aug.
3, there were at the least calculation 25,-
600 people present. They came from
Iowa, from Kansas and from Missouri,
and there seemed to be the utmost en-
thusiasm. The Republicans OF Iowa
and Nebraska are bound to win this
year"
"Do you not think that some of the
southern states are worth looking after
and that there is a good field for work
in them?'
Eyes, l do; and in West Virginia
especially. If the negro question could
be eliminated from the campaign the
south would soon vote with us on the
question of the tariff. had the honor
of making a speech before the southern
Chautauqua few years ago. OF course
l talked on the tariff, and after the
speech any number of southerners told
me that they agreed with me-"

Rurial Reform.

"The twentieth century is destined to witness complete revolution in the manner of disposing of the dead," said a prominent St. Louis physician the other day. Burial is destined 10 give place to cremation. We will be driven to 1t in sheer self-defense. The increase in population and better understand ing of the science of sanitation and its importance will leave no place for the disease-breeding cemetery. America is destined to lead in the great reform, as she has in so many others. While the modern cremation movement started in Italy the number of crematories in the United States far exceeds that in the former or any other country. Fourteen are already in successful operation here, all having been built during the past six years. Cremation societies are being organized in nearly all of the large and many of the smaller Amer ican cities. Everybody recognizes the wisdom of inciEeration; still individual scnsitiveness to any change in the burial custom and an inherent belie1 that the body should 'fester in its shroud' rather than be burned to g handful of clean ashes in a furnace form the greatest obstacle in the path way of the reform. In the early days of the new movement the religious or ganizations formed a strong opposition to it, but this has given way except ir Germany, where church and state make common cause against it. The state church openly prohibits the exercise o1 religious rites by a clergyman at incin erations. In the United States some o. the most enthusiastic cremationists afe devout church people,"

PLOT AGAINST MEXICO
Revolutionary Forces Prepar-
 ing to Invade the Country.
THEIR HEADQUARTERS IN TEXAS.

The Outrage at San Ignacio Denounced
 CallineSUpon the United States for Sat
 isfaction-Troops Rushing to the Border.
 MONTEREY, Dec. 1.-The Mexican gov ernment will demand of President Harri- son that he take decisive steps toward breaking up and wiping out the bands of revolutionists that have their rendezvous on United States soil and the lower Rio Grande border country.
 Gov. Manuel Keys, of the State of Nueva Leon, has forwarded to President Harrison documentary evidence ill proof that plot exists among large force oi Mexicans in Texas to make an armed ex- petition against Mexico.
 Gov. Keys is greatly incensed over the inactivity of the military authorities of the United States in not putting down the proposed revolution in its mcipiency, He said last night:
 Mexican soldiers and citizens opposite San Ignacio by a band of outlaws who crossed over from Texas is the greatest outrage committed upon persons of one friendly nation by subjects of another that has occurred in the nineteenth cen tury."
 It is believed that serious interna- tional trouble will grow out of the San lgnacio outbreak if the United States Government does not show it's disapprova of the act of the revolutionists by putting large body of troops in the field after the outlaws and their sympa- thizers.
 The Mexican government is strengthen ing its already strong force of troops or the border by rushing about ,, 1000 soldier. to the turbulent section from interior garrisons.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.-Gen. Schofielc has received despatches confirming thu press reports of lawlessness prevailing | along the Texas border in the vicinity 0 San Ignacio, Mex.
 One of the reports received by him say:
 that party of bandits from Texas crossed
 the line to San Ignacio on the 10th inst. ! set fire to the barracks, and burned tc death a captain, ensign, and four MeXi | can soldiers.
 ! Gen. Schofield said that United State
 troops were hastening to the scene, ant ! would take whatever action was foun.
 necessary. No orders would be issu' iron
 Washington as the officer in command
 had already received general instruction | covering such affairs.
