the past seasons it was a noticeable fact
that those who depended upon DR.. Kings

recovery, but escaped all of the trouble
some after effects Of the ma]ady. This
remedy seems to have peculiar power
in ettecting rapid cures not only IN cases
of La Grippe, but in al Diseases of

| With the exceptions named the whole
Cabinet has come to grief in the house
of it's friends. In greater or less degree
the heads of departments have been wide
ly censured and condemned by political
associates. Here is poor Mr.. Gresham,
up to his neck in a Hawaiian policy
which violates all the traditions of the
party and has brought down the denun-
citation of great number of the most in
fuential party organs. Before launching
out on this policy his assistant secretary.
Josiah Quincy, had given mortal offense
to the Mugwumps and Civil Service Re-
form supporters of Mr., Cleveland and the
President had cl1nched their hostility by
the Van Allen appointment. Mr.. Car
Isle aroused the disgust of one wing of
the party by his silver-paying proposal
and then ,angered the other by his sup
port of the Silver Repeal bill: Ppstmas-
ter-aeperal Bissell in setting bis assistant
Maxwell, to beheading postmasters at an
unprecedented rate stirred again the hos
t'lity Of the Mugwump faction, who
consider themselves the dupes of false
promises, Attorney General Olney is
severely criticised by such Democratic
newspapers as "The New York World"
for con tinuing to hold office as director
and attorney for a great corporation
while negotiating to enforce the law
against trusts. Hoke Smiths pension
policy has drawn Senator VOORHEES, into
opposition and poor Morton, Secretary
of Agriculture, last on the list, has just
been deaaoGnced by one of the Changers
which contributed to Mr.. Cleveland's
election for something he has been say
ing about political farmers.
So the whole Cabinet with the excep-
tons named is catching it hot and heavy
from all quarters. It is sn interesting
and extremely lively spectacle. Every
body in hot water except Lamont and
Herbert. Again we extend congratula-
tons to these two fortunate statesmen-

Hits Nv District. "

The Democratic statesmen who came
into the present Congress on the cry of
"Down with the robber tariff!' are be-
ginning to see not only how much easier
it IS to pull down than to build up,
but, what is more important, that the
work of pulling down is full of danger
to the men engaged in 1t. The tariff as
political edifce is an offensive struc-
| ture, to be sure, for it was built up by
Republicans, and is a monument to the
wisdom and patriotism of the party.
Naturally enough, Democrats cry out
"Down with it!' But, being now IN
power and in position to deal with it
in the destructive fashion they have so
long and so loudly advocated, they be-
gin to be little thoughtful about it.
Each one of them discovers that, bad as
the tariff is, unconstitutional as it is,
''fraud' and "robbery" as his party has
called it, he has constituents who are
| deeply interestedin saving portions of it.
A wicked piece OF work it is, to he sure,
but every Democratic constituency in
the country has few bricks in 1t some
where that must not be interfered with,
must be left standing. Ever since the
Ways and MeansCommittee began its in
vesti cations Democratic members of Con-
gress have been popping up in all direc-
tions clamoring for exceptions in the
general destruction in behalf of special
industries in which their constituents are
interested.
From Alabama and Tennessee and
West Virginia protests have come up
against any reduction in duties on coal
and iron, ''Democrats from principle"
are asserting that changes such as are
proposed in the tariff on these articles
will be fatal to enterprises in viii. b
millions Of dollars have been invested,
furnishing employment to thousands of
laborers. Louisiana Democrats insist
upon sugar being made an exception.
Virginia Democrats are equally anxious
to have the duty retained on potatoes
and farm products. Ohio Democrats
cry out against free wool. And so it
goes, every mothers son of them willing
and anxious for free trade in all the pro-
ducts of American industry in which
their immediate constituents are not
pecuniarily interested. Great willing
ness there is to kick over everybody's
basket except the one in which they
happen to have eggs of their own. And
, the absolute GOODNESS with which, while

money power dictated their policy inc

would oppose free silver. In the light
OF existing facts we may well ask
'who led?" Grover Cleveland has
gone out of his way to bring about
the decentralization of silver. He ha:
used both the patronage and the pow
erful influence which his official posi-
lion gives him to pack congress
with members who will vote to strike
down the last vestige of favorable
silver legislation. Again, it was boldly

The above article is clipped from
the National Wat:hman 1t clearly
presents the situation in the usual
forcible manner of th,t paper. 1t is a
clear cut case of the fact that the
farmer is not sin it." Now the
question naturally arises, why is he

That if prices of farm products were
low. other pr ces were low in proper
ton and that W. could buy SO much
more with our money that it made no
d ference. We pay these men a
salary Now let us see what effect
prices have on their salary In 1865,
when farm prices were good, the
salary OF congressman was
$3.50. 1t has since been Ia sed to
SIS, 600 by the republicans, and then
increased 500 per month by the demo
Gratis in the last congress. The fol-
lowing able will show the compare
tive value of congressman salary
for the two periods represented by the
years 1868 and 1898: S., 500 in 1868
represented the Inc of l,950 bushels
of wheat, or 4, 1875 bushels Of oats, or
3.125 bushels Of corn or 5000 pounds
of butter, or ~ 500 pounds of pork, or
1850 pounds of wool or la,5)O pounds
of cotton.
The SD larry in 1893 is 5000, which
represents the value of 10000
bushels Of wheat. or 6,675
bushels OF oats. or 1890 bushels of
corn. or 5000 pounds of butter, or
SIS, 500 pounds of pork, or 81, 900 pounds
of wool, or 77.70o pounds of cotton
Comp re these two tables and note
the increase in the value Of the con
CHEESEMAN'S salary, for the same
labor. This table does not include the
extra 800 per month for clerk hire (?l.
Now, if reduced prices of products of
the farm is all right for the farmer
becaus, "other hines are low in pro
portion and he can buy so much more
with his money" it ought also
apply to the congressman. If
the congress M ms salary had been
reduced in proportion TO the farmers
earnings. il would stand just this way:

In the last campaign the democratic
party went before the people presum-
ably upon it, merits. 1t made certain
assertions and certain pledges. 1t as
serted, among other things, that the
Mckinley tariff was the eliminating
atrocity," and pledged itself to lis i'm
mediate repeal, if given the opportu-
n ty The populists admitted that the
tariff was burden but insisted that
the financial question first demanded
attentions; that it was the most
important issue: hat there was
real danger ahead; that the
condition was growing worse
and ". uld continue to do so until con-
gress provided for the issue OF more
money. All this the democrats denied.
they asserted that the tariff question
was the great and overshadowing
ISSUE" and that there was no such
scarcity of money or danger of panic
as was claimed by the populists In
the light of recent events we might
we'll ask the question: Who lied?"
Democratic speeches we're burd' ned
with statistics and argument attempt
ing to show that the tariff
was robbing the people of this
country. BY an overwhelming
array of figures and assertions that
astounded their audiences, they proved,
according to their standpoint, that
the N Mckinley tariff was robbng the
people at the rate of S13,00O,00O per
week. They pledged their word
and all the honor they had in
the shop. that if given a ''chance"
they W WOULD repeal the Ubiquitous tariff
law and give the people freer trade.
The populists asserted that they would
do no such thing; that the tariff
issue was a sham; that the democratic
party favored a protective tariff, and
that if there was any change at all 1t
would be very slight ,eduction, which
would be but little relief to the
people. he democrats were success
full. They were given full and abso-
lutte power. They have had it for
nearly six months. According to heir
own figures the Mckinley tariff has
been robbing the people all that time
at the rate of $l3 200, 600 per week At
that rate it has filched from their
pockets the enormous sum of 1915. 00O,-
900. This is a sum equal to more than
the entire value of either the wheat
crop or cotton crop of the United
States. And the tariff is still robbing.
At last Cleveland done in August
what he should have done in
March. He convened congress. But
not to revise the tariff. Not one word
in his proclamation about the tariff.

ton. In the light of these facts our
readers will excuse us for the very
pertinent inquiry: Who lied?"
