Rejoicing in England.

Kansas City. No.. Journal
The rejoicing in England that fol.
lowed the election of the present head oil
the government at Washington was no,
the expression of disinterested senti-
ment. Mr.. Cleveland was known over
there. The democratic party was known,
and it was known as the friend Of free,
trade England. It was known as the
party of retrogression and destruction.
The same London newspapers which
became intoxicated with Joy over the
election of Grover Cleveland ere now
rejoicing over the declaration of Mr.
Gresham that reciprocity is a failure.
In the matter of international trade,
that which is made subject for rejoic.
ing in Great Britain is subject for re,
greet in America. If reciprocity is over.
thrown England will profit by the overs
throw, and proportionately to England's
gain will be our loss. If, as Mr.. Gresh,
am says, reciprocity is failure, why
should Americas greatest rival for the
trade of the Spanish Americas be con.
vulsed with joy? If reciprocity is of nc
benefit to Americas trade, it is certainly
not in the way of the commerce Of
Great Britain.

Base and Unprincipled.
From the Salina Republican.

John Martin knows enough to know
that the decision of the supreme court
of the state was right. There Is not q
man in Kansas who is acquainted with
John Martin but knows that when he
said that Aliens opinion was the best
law that he stated what he knew to be
false and he did it for the purpose of
pleasing the horde OF revolutionary
populists and nothing else. The in1u-
ence that he as senator would have
over the public mind was no consider
alton with him. Whether his statements
would result in good or evil to his state
or his country would not have the slight
est weight. His only motive was the
entrenchment of himself in the minds of
the popuhsts for his own personal adj
vantage. In the interview in reference
to the court decision he demonstrated
himself to be as base and unprincipled
a demagogue as ever disgraced seat
in the United States senate.

THE WHEAT MARKETS.
POINTS THE CAMPAIGN ORA
TOR OVERLOOKED.
Loud-Mouthed Champions of the Alleged
FREQ Trade Party Shown to Have Been
Observation-Disclosures Appointment an
Insult to Patriotism.
Statistical Facts.

During the last campaign the ora
tors of the alleged free-trade party
told the farmers of the West very
much about the wheat markets OF
the world" from which the Mckinley
law shut them out. These orators
and organs did not undertake to To-
cate these markets, but they declared
with much vehemence that all Europe
wanted our wheat and would take it
if the wheat growers would take
their goods in exchange. In this
connection the report of the Depart
ment of Agriculture showing the
production and distribution Of the
principal agricultural products Of the
world" as given in the Indian
apolis Journal, is of pTacti-
cal value, because it shows
the average wheat crop, country by
country, and the quantity of that
cereal consumed by it's people. In
connection with the loudmouthed
proclamations of the free-trade cham
pions, it is interesting and can be Of
practical value as an educator, since
the wheat statistics show how wide
from the truth the regulation West
ern speech of the free-trade orator
can be. The wheat market Of the
world is confined principally in Eu-
rope. The statistics OF the imports
of wheat into European countries
which do not raise enough to feed
their people show an average yearly
importation for the decade 1SS1-'90
as follows:

An Insult To Patriotism.

In appointing John R Risley
United States Minister to Denmark,
MI. Cleveland has once more shown
his contempt for American principles
and American patriotism. If this
mans record had been known to the
public at the time Of his nomination,
as it unquestionably was known to
Mr.. Cleveland himself, a storm of
protests would have swept the coun-
try from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The gravest charges are made against
Risley in connection with his conduct
In handling sums of money belonging
to other people. These accusations
of enlightenment may not be true.
At any rate, they are not yet proved.
But it has been authoritatively stated
in the news columns of Democratic
as well as of Republican newspapers
that Risley, who comes from Indiana
and is a brother-in-law of Senator
Voorhees,, was, during the war, a
prominent member in the reasonable
organizations known as the Sons of
Liberty and the Knights of the
Golden Circle. This statement has
not been contradicted from any reli-
able source.
Both the Sons of Liberty and the
Knights of the Golden Circle were
conspiracies of Northern Copperheads
to aid the Confederates in their
efforts to destroy the American re-
public. Copperheadism was rampant
in certain portions of Indiana during
the war. The men who belonged to
the vile organizations whose purpose
was to convey reasonable informa-
ton to the enemy and cripple the
loyal armies by striking cowardly
blows at the Union cause from the
rear, were worthy to rank with Bene-
dict Arnold in infamy. The Moth
ern veterans and the Northern people
can respect the brave Confederates
who fought openly in the field for a
cause which great majority of their
number sincerely believed to be

Keen the Fight.

Gov. Mckinley was emphaticallJ
right when in his manly and inspir.
ing address at Canton he declared;
There is no cause for discourage.
ment on our part. We have but to
move on with our old-time vigor,
yielding nothing of principle. As
Mr.. Lincoln said Nov. 10, 1858: This
fight must go on. The cause must
not surrender at the end of one OF
even hundred defeats.'"
This is good common senses, good
patriotism and good Republicanism.
The Republics party is far more
likely to win the next Presidential
election than it would have been if
the result of the last contest at the
polls had been a division Of respon-
sibility in the Federal Government
between the two parties. In the
completeness Of the Democratic vic
tory lies the assurance of future
Democratic defeat. Gov. Mckinley
pointed out the dilemma in which
the Democratic leaders now find
themselves when he said: "They
have no divided responsibility. There
is no longer any excuse for pretense;
no longer any room for hypocrisy.
If they believe in themselves and
their professions of thirty years they
can now make them effective.
The combination of greed and IN.
American ideas of intolerant Bour-
bons and corrupt rings that consti-
tute the Democratic party is power
less to govern great nation. Its
only power is the power to Obstruct
and destroy. When the nation was
far smaller and less important than
it is to-day Democracy was driven
from the helm, because Of it's treach-
cry and incapacity. The statesman
ship needed to conduct successfully
the affairs of the United States, with
it's 100000 people and it's vast
array of magnificent industries Gre
ated by protection, does not exist
among the rapacious politicians of
the Democracy. Bourbonism and
bossism can check the progress of the
nation, degrade it's currency, disgrace
its flag, and condemn it's hundreds Of
thousands of well-paid workingmen
to pauper wages and pauper homes.
But these dominant Democratic forces
cannot continue to rule.
The Republican party has only to
be true to its principles and steadfast
in its opposition to Democratic policy
to achieve victory in 1896. The ma
tion that has marched so far in The
field Of progress will not consent to
retrograde in obedience to Democratic
demands. Four years Of Democratic !
dishonesty and hostility
to American principles will disgust
the nation with Democracy as effect
ually as it was disguised thirty years
ago. The motto for Republicans was
put in enthusiastically concise |
form by President Harrison the other |
day: @Keen IN flghting."s

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure Deafness, and that is by con-
stitutiOnal remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
infamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the iniama-
ton can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous surfaces
