Mr.. Neal Means 1t.

Mr.. Mckinley wanted to know: Does
my opponent, Mr.. Neal, really seek to
destroy this beautiful system of mine
known as McKinleyism? Does he wish
to eliminate protection from tariff?
Can he really mean it? Mr.. Mckinley
has his answer. Mr.. Neal does mean
every word of it, and he is not at all
afraid to say so. He stands squarely
on the tariff plank of the Chicago plat
form, plank which he is understood
to have sawed out and dressed himself,
and he does not skulk behind any ifs or
butts. In his opening speech at New
ark, Mr.. Neal said: The greatest foe
to the prosperity of the people is Nc
Kinleyism. So long as the Federal
system Of protective taxation is con-
tinued we can have no general and
permanent prosperity in this country.
To regain such prosperity we must ap-
ply the AK to the root of the evil and
forever destroy the Mckinley method
of taxation" The whole unconst1tu-
tional system under which the taxing
power Is exercised, not to get revenue
for public purposes but to enrich the
few out Of the earnings of the many,
must be uprooted and cast out.
That is the Democratic platform. It
is Mr.. Meals plaform. And it would
be good thing for the Democratic
party, because it would be capital
thing for the country, If every Demo-
cratic member of the Ways and
Means Committee stood boldly and i'm
movably upon the same platform, and re-
jected with scorn and Indignation every
suggestion looking to the continuance
Of system the precise like of which
the Supreme Court of the United
States has denounced as none the less
a robbery becau.e it is done under the
forms of law and Is called taxation. :"
Mr.. Neal means radical war on this
system of licensed spoliation, and he
will make things hot for Mckinley in

| Twin Sisters WOOed by Twin Broth
ers and Complications Arise.
William and Edward Sites arc BROTH
ers and wealthy real estate men of
| Wichita. They are twins and in addi-
| ton are so much alike that people who
have kIcwn then. intimately for years
constantly take one for the other III
the same town lived two school teach
; ers who were sisters and twins. The
authority Of the story, a. NJ. Burton
| of Kansas, who is at the Great North
| ern, says tEat it is difficult to tell them
! apart. The four twins met, fell in
love and married. Each twin married
| the twin with whom he or she was in
| love, though a little mixing made dis
| elimination impossible.
Many stories, too long to be rctold
! here, are related OF them during the
! courtship, but suffice it for the present
narrative to say that in order to avoid
mistakes William and the young lady
| TO whom he was engaged assigned
| Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights
| as their nights for counting, and Ed
| called on the remaining nights of the
| week, so there would be no mistake.
| They were married by the same preach
er at the same time. The gentlemen
were dressed alike and so were the
ladies. The preacher got little mixed
| and had to refer to his notes, but the
high contracting parties are satisfied
that they got the one they wanted.
The father Of the boys presented them
, both colts that were twins, and Mr..
, Burton says any day these gentlemen,
looking exactly alike and driving horses
and buggies where no difference can
be detected may be seen in the streets
OF Wichita, where they are known to
! nearly everybody in town.
Well, twins have come into these
two households, and 1t Is gravely assert
ed that each set of twins cannot be
determined from the other They have
oil four been in one house and the
visiting mother has taken two babies
home with her, and If they become
mix ed they comfort themselves by say
ing It's all in the family, anyhow"
The children are satisfied with either
one of the ladies as q mother. When
either one of the gentlemen meets any
one of the four on the street and it
calls out, Hello, papa" he doesn't
know whether it's his or not.
Eight of these twins, for. of course,
the horses are to be left in Wichita,

A workingman to Mckinley.
To the Editor:

AS one of the workingmen whom the
Republican party loves so we'll l would
like to ask few questions. The first Is,
Where arc the increased wages prom
ised us when higher protection became
a law?
Second-Where is the loot which the
Republican party distracted from the
Cverhowing Treasury? Bona-fide work
tngmen have not got much of 1t.
Third-Why was 1t that the last
years of Mr.. Cleveland's first admins
tration were among the best ever
known by workingmen in America?
Fourth-Why is it, If you are afraid
of foreign competition, you take no
steps to put the workingmen of Amer
lea in position which would not be
affected by it? Why do the magnates
of the Republican party employ, as far
as possible, European labor when there
is an abundance Of native-born Ameri-
cans who need the same?
II competition is good for the work.
ingman, why Is it not equally good for
the employer? Surely you do not ex-
pect that the people of the earth will
stand with open arms to welcome you
and your products when you yourself
by legislation erect barriers against
trade with them? It is poor rule,
Coy. Mckinley, which will not work
both ways, and you and your party will
discover that the men you affect to love
so much have reason to remember that
your promises are all before election,
and your failure to redeem them, so
far as they affect the cause of labor, Is
delusion and sham.
You know that only the one class is
beneficiary in your protection scheme
perhaps l per cent of the 65, ,O0O, 600
whom the Constitution has declared
born free and equal. There is one
place where we have voice, and you
will understand all about it when the
votes are counted, unless the men of
Ohio are false to themselves and the
interests Of labor. QUI VIvE.

Pauper Induatrles Ask Aims.

The hearings given by the Ways
and Means Committee to the represent
atives of the protected tariff interests
have closed. They have not developed
any new points of Importance. For the
most part it was the same old whine:
Give us protection or we shall either
be ruined or compelled to cut down
wages. When they were given all the
protection they asked for they made no
haste to put up wages. The workmen
did not get the benefits which the man
ufacturer said was his motive in seek
Ing higher duties. The latter paid
his workmen as low wages as he could
hire them for, without reference to
the tariff. But he says that he will
not similarly neglect to lower wages if
he has good excuse. He will not. He
never does neglect that opportunity.
But the story Is told. The threats are
all recorded. Now let the committee
draft its reform bill. - New York

Crying for More.

The demand for more and larger pen
sions Is little abated, Notwithstanding
the mbarrassment to which the Treas
ury is subjected by reason of past ex-
travagance in this direction.
Many bills OF this sort have already
been introduced. Mr.. Houck, of Ten
nessee, proposes that oil loyal citizens
of the insurrectionary States who
suffered arrest and Imprisonment on
account of their loyalty and were
wounded or incurred disease during
such imprisonment shall be pensioned
There are bills to pension soldiers of
Indian wars; to restore pensions to
pensioners of the Florida Indian wars
who lost their pensions by going into
the rebellion to enable applicants for
pensions under the General Disability
act of 1890 to prosecute their claims in
the absence of an honorable discharge; :;
to graduate the pensions of soldiers
who did not engage in battle or incur
disability while in the service accord
ing to the length of their service to
raise the rate for total blindness to 800
a month, for total deafness to $50 a
month, for total disability to 800 a
month; to give to present pensioners
an extra 81 month for every thirty
days they were confined in rebel pris-
Ons, and so on.
There seems to be no end to more o.
less plausible demands to be supported
at the Government expense on account
of war service. If law we're passed
to pay every one who was mustered in
a pension Of 81, 2O0 year for life, there
would be attempts to increase the
amount, and to continue it to SONS of
veterans or other heirs.
The war ended more than twenty
five years ago. The cry for pensions
and more pensions on account of it bids
fair to continue forever. The number
of those who served their country
purely from patriotic motives and es
teemed it privilege to do so dwindles
yearly. Honorable motives are yield

national gratitude that has had no

The Horse Liar.

A horse liar is man who has
had a horse which could go in 2:20.
He hasn't got him now, but that
doesn't make any difference. He
has driven that horse in a race
with an express train and taken
first money. And he also had a
running horse which made dash
of twenty-five miles On a bet of
5000. He hasn't the horse or
the money at the present time,
but be can give You the names Of
a dozen leading bank presidents
and Justices who saw that dash.
The horse liar doesn't stop at
lying about his own horse, but he
is ready TO put in his best hcks
abOut animals he never saw. He
is in the confidence Of the owners
of all the celebrated equInes- In
his own opinion such a track Is
short, and such a track is long.
He doesn't believe Rarus was
much of a horse, and he feels that
he could drive Goldsmith Maid in
three seconds faster than she re-
corded. He is the identical man
who first saw speed in Flora Tenn
pie, and if he had wanted to be
mean about it he could have bought
her for $40 and an old plow, aud
made &5, 600 ont of the trade. He
J knows all about spavins, ring
