WHAT is THE GOLDEN CLUB,

To the Editor of the Eagle.
In a general way know the object and
aim Of that British organization known as
the Golden club, that it is inimical to the
industrial interests OF America and All
that, but does its personnel include proml-
nent statesmen or merely manufacturers
of Great Britain? Respectfully,
PROTECTIONIST.
The Golden club is an association of
British noblemen, manufacturers, and
others, organized in 1866, the avowed
object of which is interference with the
protective policy of other countries, that
the introduction and sale therein OF Brit
iSh goods may be facilitated. So power
full and so influential is this organization
that there are on its list of members the
names of two hundred members of the
British parliament, and of the fourteen
British cabinet ministers no fewer than
twelve were members of the club. Many
Democratic American politicians are not
ashamed to be members of this British
Golden club and to receive its assistance
in their congressional campaigns.

FUSION a FAILURE.

From the Cleveland. (o.,) Leader.
The Democrats have fused with the
Peoples party in Kansas. and in some
Democratic quarters some hopes are ex-
pressed that the combination will be
able TO carry the state against Harrison.
If the fusionists could command any
thing like the vote the two parties polled
two years ago, they would undoubtedly
do so. But it always happens that many
members of both parties refuse to follow
their leaders into such a deal, and fusion
is invariably much weaker than the
joint forces of the two parties entering
into it. In the case of the greenback
movement, fusion in national elections
was failure in every case, and 1t Is
practically certain to again prove SO IN
Kansas this year.

President Harrison and King Hum
bert, of Italy, are exchanging friendly
messages over the Columbus celebration,
which is to take place in New York
next October. The present amicable re-
lations existing between the United
States and Italy are due very largely to
Mr.. Blaine's skillful and prudent treat
ment of the Fava incident, the out
growth of.the New Orleans Malta affair."
And it is worthy of rote in this connec-
ton that the house has just refused to
appropriate 1000 to reimburse the
state department in that sum paid in
settlement of the affair.

A dispatch to the Kansas City Jour-
nal from Washington says that Jerry
Simpson openly rejoiced when the news
of Tricks assassination was received.
We can hardly credit the declaration.
Simpson is a very extreme man in his
views but we had hardly expected him
as advocating the Anarchistic policy of
blood for settling questions arising be-
tween American citizens. Still it will
not be forgotten that the men at the
bottom of these social upheavalS are not
Americans, and Simpson is foreigner.

On June %. 1892, Hon. VIM. j. Stone
the Democratic nominee for governor of
Missouri, made speech at Maysville. in
which he used the following language:
eff Mr.. Harrison should be elected TO
succeed himself, and by any possibility
the Republicans should gain the lower
house of Congress. as sure as there Is a
Lord in Heaven, force bill will be
passed. If this should be done and
were your governor, l would spit upon
the federal statute: would use all the
power of the state to prevent its enforce
ment, and if federal officers, possibly
from Chicago, should come into cur
state on election day. nosing around the
judges tables, we would take them by
the heels and throw them into the
Mississippi river for food for the fishes. "

a Useful Lesson.
From the Lawrence Journal.

From the Lawrence Journal.
There are two men by the name of
Harris who are prominent in Kansas
politics this year. One of them Was a
colonel in the Federal army, the other a
colonel in the Confederate army. Both
are Democrats. The one who was IN
the army of the South is fusionlst, a
candidate for congress on the fusion
ticket. The other Democratic Colonel
Harris refuses to vote for or support the
fusion ticket. Many soldiers who have
never voted a Democratic ticket, but
have now gone half over, may learn a
very useful letter from the Democratic
Colonel Harris who was Union soldier.
