THE DEMOCRATIC IDEA

From the Kansas City Gazette
The Mckinley law repealed the duties
on raw sugar and saved $50, 900, 900 an
nually to American consumers, at the
same time granting a bounty to the
Louisiana sugar growers, which was
equivalent to the old tariff duties, and
which alone has stood between them and
the destruction of their industry by
competition with the semi-slave labor Of
the West Indies. As an example of fair
dealing with political opponents, the
conduct Of the Republican congress to-
ward the Louisiana sugar growers was
extraordinary. if not UNIQUE. Now, how
ever, if the Democratic congress desires
to wipe out the Louisiana industry, it is
at liberty to proceed to do SO. 1t is like
wise at liberty to close the beet growing
experimental stations in Nebraska and
Kansas That Germany and France, by
governmental subsidies encouraged the
establishment of beet farms and beet
sugar factories, until they have develop
ed great sugar industries and rendered
themselves quite independent of the
West Indies, should not deter the Demo
cratic statesmen at Washington.

KANSAS CROPS ALL RIGHT.

Eastern Kansas has had too much rain
this spring mixed with cold weather;
western Kansas too little rain and too
much sunshine. Central Kansas. located
between the two and constituting the
belt which has given Kansas her grain
fame, has been reported as not likely to
show up with more than half crop of
wheat and oats, with corn uncertain.
1t Is probable that eastern Kansas has
had too many cold spring rains, and
that western Kansas too ruuch dry, open
weather; but warm sunshine will do
much for eastern Kansas, and the June
and July rains wonders for western
Kansas AS for the central belt it
promises to do what it about always
does, surprise the state in the
amount of its wheat, oat and corn yields.
There is no question that the crops at the
present time are discouraging in this
section. The straw of the wheat and
oats will be short but there will be no
half crop business in central Kansas. 4
good per cent. of the wheat area of the
lower Arkansas and Little Arkansas,
Ninnescah and Walnut valleys will yield
splendidIy both as to number of bushels
and as to grade of grain. AS for the
corn crop tile area planted of which is
very large, it never looked more promis-
ing. When harvest time comes Kansas,
as usual, will be found in the lead.

POP IDIOCY.

The Populists have been fearing that
Secretary of State Osborne was likely to
become insane. An examination of the
volume of statutes Just issued fully JUS
titles their Gears He has attempted to
turn it into political document by q
series of "notes" In the list of men,
hers of the house he notes several as be-
ing Republican postmasters; but not
unseated," and he notes two as having
"their seats declared vacant because they
were postmasters and Populists." This
is worse than idiocy; it is rank false
hood.
Everyone of the alleged Republican
postmasters" had resigned and was en-
tireiy out of office before his legislative
term began, while the two Populist
postmasters were still federal officials
during the session of the legislature and
hence expressly disqualified by the state
constitution.

INGALLS, AND THE NEGRO.

Those no are curious to know the
full redundancy of rhetoric which John
j. ingalls, employed in disposing of the
negro question, will find it below:
If reconciliation upon the basis of
justice and equal rights is impossible,
then migration to Africa should be the
policy of the future. To that fertile
continent from whence they came they
would return. not as aliens and strang-
ers, but to the manor born. To their
savage kindred who still warm in its
solitudes they would bring the alphabet,
the Declaration of Independence and the
Bible. Emancipi:ated from the tradi-
tons of bondage, from the habit of
obedience and imitation. from the
knowledge of its vices, which is the only
instruction of a strong race to a weaker,
the African might develop along its axis
of growth and Ethiopia stretch out her
hand TO God. The Negro might not
want to 90. He is native. He Is
citizen. He has right to stay. So he
has a right to vote. He has the right to
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
He has been deprived of them all. Only
the right of domicile remains. He could
perhaps submit to the loss of this with
the same resignation which has accom-
panied hls surrender to the rest.

DESTROYED BY FIRE AND AGAIN AT

The fiat money champions are hopping
onto President Cleveland in advance,
taking the circumstance of the presi-
dents request OF the attorney general
for his Interpretation of the law as to
the governments power and authority
TO issue bonds in certain contingencies to
mean his intention to do so. To issue
bonds would be to increase the public
debt to the extent of such issue, and
this is what gives the fiatists the night
mare. Instead of issuing bonds they
would have the government issue its
promises to pay on paper until every
body had a pocket full. 1t is not proba-
BILE that either will be done; though

istfation is of a peace with the verdict of

STICK TO THE TRUTH, COLONEL DAN.

makes charges that the editor of the

thought and cites differences that would
make a candidate tired, as follows:
But so far as Colonel Murdoch is con-
cerned, his fight has not been an ordi-
nary one. The friends of .goman suf-
frage might overlook the opposition of
one who has opposed them in a manly
way. The cause of woman suffrage is
entitled to respectful hearing. 1t is a
demand that one-half the human race
be granted the right of self-government.
The ab!est women of the age have de-
voted themselves to this cause. Many

his city, a when they were

filled his paper with ribald iests
concerning the convention and applied
insulting epithets to women whose only
offense had been that they had devoted
their lives to the elevation of their sex.
Does the World believe that next year,
when the whole state will be stirred up
over the question of woman suffrage,
when the Peoples party will probably
openly advocate it, does the World be-
lieve that that will be good time for
the Republican party to nominate such
an opponent of woman suffrage as Colo
mel Murdoch? 1t would be equivalent to
saying to every friend of woman suf-
rage in the Republican party:-We don't
want your votes. Is the Republican
party in Kansas in position to throw
away thousands of votes!

JUDICIAL ACUMEN.

The Texas judge is phenomenal jurist
whose counterpart might be found in
some of the Judges in southwest Kan
sas not very long ago. John Gilmer
Speed in Harper's Monthly says that
down in southwestern Texas, just about
midway between Houston in the east,
and FL Paso in the west, and very near
to the Rio Grande, the Southern Pacific
railway has built over the Pecos river
the highest bridge IN the United States.
Indeed its height of $50 feet is only ex-
ceeded by two bridges in the world
one in the Andes of Peru, and the other
in the Himalaya mountains. just be-
fore the bridge was finished one of the
workmen fell from it, and was of course
killed. The county judge was summon
ed from Langtry, the town nearest to
the bridge, to hold ''coroner's quest. :"
The judge arrived with a great concourse
of people, all anxious to serve on the
jury. Proceedings were begun by ex-
aiming the body of the dead man.
Upon this were found a loaded revolver
and $40 in cash. Perceiving these, the
judge said:
'There amt nothing to do about this
case, gentlemen of the jury. The mans
dead, and its perfectly plain how he met
his death. But what | want to know is,
what was he doing with that gun !?
