A Cent a Day.

One of the Republican stumpers
seeks to belittle the tariff burdens
borne by the people by the calcula-
ton that zone cent a day from every
person in the United States would
pay the duty on all our imports. "
Indeed! Do not the protection
tracts prove that ''the tariff is not a
tax" and have we not Gov. Nc
Kinley's word that if it is a tax ''the
foreigner pays it?"
The stumper is more honest. But
little figuring by laboring man
having five children will show that
even at Zone cent per head a day"
his family of seven must pay in
tariff taxes $25.55 each year. What
other tax upon the poor man COM
pares with this?
And for what?-to enable the Car
negies to buy castles in Europe and
the other monopolists to set up a
plutocracy in the Republicl

Tender Hearted Lynchers.

That Kentucky mob which took
Logan Murphy, 17-year-old par
ricide, and hung him because of his
atrocious crimes, introduced a unique
feature into their lynching procedure.
1t would have been scarcely possible
to give him the benefit of clergy, for
gentlemen of the cloth are averse to
participating in such affairs, but
those who officiated at young
Murphy's demise were not entirely
lost to the solemn suggestions of the
occasion. He was given opportuni-
ty to pray, but frankly confessed an
inability to avail himself OF the favor.
In this emergency a man in the
mob knelt down to ask mercy upon
the soul that they were about to
launch into eternity. In terse, strong
language he told what a grievous
sinner Murphy had been and how
the law of the land had failed to
punish him. He had killed two
persons, one his own father, and a
third one of his victims lay at death s
door. He had been a horse thief
and a generally wicked boy, unfit to
live and certainly unfit to die.
The petitioner evidently had re-
gard for the old Mosaic law of an
eye for an eye and tooth
for a tooth. The boy had murder
ed two of his fellow-men, and the
fitting punishment was death. The
laws delay had aggravated the COM
munity until men who would pray
and listen to prayer at his lynching
hung young Murphy until he was
dead. They had just cause to pro-
test and condemn the slowness of
the law, but they can find no justi-
fication for the extremes to which |
they were led. The men who hung |
Murphy can only be classified as
murderers. They acted without
sanction Of law and they can find no
apology in morals. The stringent
enforcement of the law against |
lynchers is one of the crying de-
mands of the day.

Mr.. ALLAN G. THURMAN is credit
ed with having said that if he had
his way he would close the Democrat
ic headquarters in Ohio and abandon
the campaign in that State. 1t is a
good thing for the Democratic party
that Mr.. Thurman cannot have his
way; it is not a good way. 1t was by
keeping up the organization and
making an aggressive fight all along
the lines that Cleveland was elected
in 'S4, and the same methods are
necessary now to accomplish the
same result. To abandon the CAM
paign in any State is but to furnish
the enemy with additional ammu-
milton in other states.

THERE is no question but what
by the paying of cash for what you
buy much of the trouble in financial
circles would be relieved. By buy
ing for cash and selling for cash a
smaller profit is necessary. Busi-
ness men who pay cash for goods
and sell for cash can sell cheaper
than those who buy on credit and
sell on credit. Farmers, mechan-
les, laborers and any person who
buys goods can better afford to pay
cash than they can to ask for credit
provided they expect to pay at all:
The millennium will be here when
everybody pays cash. There will
be no necessity for any financial
distresses when people live within
there incomes. You are bound to
live within your income when you
pay cash. The calling of the calam-
ity howler, who whites on goods
boxes and is againt the Government
will be lost when we all pay cash.

Gov. JacksOn's Marriage.


An excellent story of one man
who did not believe that marriage
was failure is told in Missouri at
the expense of the once famous gov
ernor of the State, Claiborne F.
Jackson, who, so the story runs,
married five sisters. After one wife
had--,diad and been unourned he
...srrivd the second of the siste.s
who also died. He then courted
and won the third sister and she
also followed the first two. He
gained the fourth sister with the
same unhappy result, and then ap-
piled to his many time or, to be
exact, fourfold father-in-law for the
fifth and last of his girls. Some of
his affinities were widows ere he
transformed them from weeping
Niobes to willing brides, but little
thing like that could not deter this
persistent benedict.
The father of these girls was very
deaf, and when the request for the
hand of the fifth was made, the fol-
lowing dialogue is reported to have
passed between them:
81 want Lizzie!"
"Eh?"
"I want you to let me have Eliz-
a-beth."
go, you want Lizzie, do what
for?"
"For my wife,"
"For life2"
81 want to marry her,
go, yes, just SO; l hear you,
boy"
"I'm-glad you do, "muttered
the governor.
"Well," responded the old man,
"you needn't holler SO that the
whole country can hear you. Well,
yes, you can have her. You've got
the whole of them now, my lad but,
for goodness sake, if anything hap
pens to the poor misguided gill,
don't you come back after the old
woman. You hear me now"
And the governor promised SOL
emnly that he would not.

COucluSlOHS 'DaU nCaCuOus
"Bab," the well known writer says :
I have come to the conclusion that
the men and women OF importance
are the products of the small village.
l have come to the conclusion that
the women we look at with pity min
gled with scorn are nine times out OF
ten women who in their girlhood were
like Florence, longing for beautiful
clothes, for words Of praise, and kept
down, down, down, as if they were
made of wood and not of flesh land
blood.
have come to the conclusion that
the best critic is a small boy who
knows what he wants and will get it.
have come to the conclusion that
mothers who make their homes de-
lightful resorts for everybody else's
children as we'll as their own are the
ones who will reap blessings here
and hereafter.
have come to the conclusion that
life in village is like in city, only
it is smaller.
have come to the conclusion that
life, anyhow, is the same all the
world over. The sun shines on the
good and the bad with the same
smile, and there is just as much
chance of the good falling in small
place as there is in a large one, and
so he who is conscious of his own
virtues had best beware else he
stumble.

AN OUTRAGE ON THE POOR.
Sending Ex-Confederates to Higgins.
vile without Proper Authority.

HEADQUARTERS OF CoNFEDERATE
HOME OF MISSOURI, ST. LOUIS, Aug.
31:-Will you kindly aid us by pub
fishing the following extract from a
private letter from Higginsville:
There is matter that is becoming
perfect nuisance to us. 1t is the
sending to us from different parts of
the State, men, women and children
without their papers tor admission
being endorsed by the president,
vice-president and secretary. A half
dozen cases have occurred recently.
An old lady was sent here the second
time from Ray county; a man was
sent here yesterday from near La
mar, and to-day a man, wife and
three children arrived from Column
bia. These people are told to come
on and we will take care Of them,
and they arrive destitute and help
less. We have to raise the money
to return them. Now, this is an
outrage upon this community and
should be stopped in some way.
These people are unloaded on our
community to get rid of them. There
are not less than a dozen in and
about here now. We have here to-
night this poor, helpless family, and
we can't do anything but put them
at hotel and raise the money to
send them back.
Every room at the Confederate
Home is now filled. No more can
be received until vacancies occur,
or until the main building is COM
pleted-some time next spring. We
have 80 inmates-men, women and
children; and even if we had plenty
of room the Superintendent of the
Home can only receive those with
papers properly sworn to and ap-
proved. The good people of Hig-
ginsville and Lafayette county have
contributed $7,177.30 for the Con-
federate Home, and it would be
poor return for this generous aid to
make that town a dumping ground
for adjacent counties. All poor peo-
pie sent here without proper papers
will be promptly returned.

Suggestion for a Summer Trip.

If you wish to take a trip of a
lifetime, purchase the low rate ex-
cursion tickets sold by all principal
lines in United States and Canada
via the Northern Pacific Railroad to
Yellowstone National Park, Pacific
coast and Alaska.
The trip is made with the highest
degree of comfort in the elegant YES
tibuled trains of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, which carry dining cars and
luxurious Pullman sleeping cars from
Chicago, st. Paul and MfnneapoT1s
to Montana and the racine coast,
without change, and special Pullman
sleepers from st. Paul and Mlnne-
apolis to Yellowstone Park.
The scenery en- route is the most
magnificent to be found in the seven
states through which the road passes.
Beautiful mountains, rivers, valleys,
lakes and plains follow each other in
rapid succession to delight the tourist,
who will also find interest in the ag-
ricultural, mining, numbering, in
dustrial and other interests associat-
ed with the development of the great
Northwest.
The crowning glory of the trip
through the Northwest, however, is
the visit to Yellowstone Park, the
land of hot springs, geysers and
gorgeous canons, and to Alaska with
its endless ocean channels, snow
capped peaks, Indian villages and
giant glaciers.
If you wish to investigate this
suggestion further send to Charles
S. Fee, General Passenger Agent,
N. P. R. R.. st. Paul, Mimi, for
copies of the handsomely illustrated
"Wonderland" book, Yellowstone
Park and Alaska folders.
