Should the Democratic Congress fail
in the fulfillment of its promises and
not interfere with the existing tariff,
each and every individual member of
this Congress who has been elected
under the Democratic platform, which
embodied the free trade plank, then we
say that each and every one of those
members will have been elected under
false pretenses. tits because our manu-
facturers and the people at large have
confidence enough in the Democratic
party to believe that its policy will be
strictly adhered to, it is this very belief
and confidence of the people that has
resulted 80 disastrously for their well
fare and prosperity during the past x
months. This is the reason, the whole
reason, and nothing G but the reason. An
announcement made today that there
will be no meddling or interference
with our existing custom duties, as
constituted under the Mckinley act of
1890, would at once result in an instan-
taneous feeling of relief throughout the
country. Money would become more
easy, manufacturers would regain their
confidence, the mills would be reopened,
commerce would again flow in its nor
NAL channels, and the people would,
like q unit, feel reassured and con-
tented Economist.

the Savior, on the corner of Wabash
Avenue and Hubbard Court. This in

As citizen interested in politics, /

cans are in the ascendancy in many of
the counties, there is some lack of har-
mony among the brethren.

When it comes to getting place in
Congress, there is general uprising,
and the fight becomes general and the
candidates numerous .l, ssi ,.....
Up in the First District there is to be
a lively time Of it. II Is announced
from semi official source that Hon.
A. A. Taylor, the present Republican
ember, will not be candidate for re-
election. This has been caused, so the
knowing ones claim, by lack Of con-
fidence Mr.. Taylor has in securing
the nomination for reelection. Others
claim that he could have had ii easily

jealous member Of the party said II

with ALI, anyway" !"
With Taylor retired to his Nola-
chucky farm to fish and plow, there
would be an open field and enough
candidates for a big fight.

The Barbarous Pension Order.

The cruel operation of the recent
order of the Pension Department sus-
pending for sixty days the pensions of
thousands of veteran soldiers of the
Union army was signally illustrated
last week in the case of Joseph King, a
brave Union veteran residing in
Boston. Joseph King is the grandson
of patriotic American who command
ed the privateer Growler in the war of
1912. Inheriting his ancestors love of
country and readiness to fight in the
country's cause, Joseph King enlisted
and went to the front to battle for the
Union against the hosts Of secession.
He was in the expedition which cap
tured Roanoke Island, and there a Con-
federate shell exploded 80 near him as
to impair and eventually to destroy
both his sight and hearing. He also
has wound in the hip, where rebel
bullet left its permanent mark. Joseph
King has borne his terrible misfor-
tunes, incurred in his country's cause,
with the patience becoming brave,
true hearted soldier, and he and his
wife, also an invalid, have managed to
eak out frugal existance with the
aid of small pension granted to the
old soldier by the Government for
total disability. N
Last week Joseph King was led up
the pension Office to receive the pension
that would be between him and his
faithful helpmate ON the one hand,
and starvation on the other. The
blind hero who had marched bravely
to face rebel shells presented his sight
less eyes at the wicket of the pension
agent. The money was not there. The
Government he had helped save had
deserted him. Grover Cleveland's
Secretary of the Interior had ordered
the blind soldiers pension to be sus-
pended.
Let us turn for moment from the
picture Of want and anguish in the
blind soldiers home to q far diff
fernt spectacle. Grover Cleveland,
who sent substitute to the war, while
Joseph King was fighting the Con-
federates, was yachting on Buzzard's
Bay. Hoke Smith, his Secretary of
the Interior, who had ordered the old
soldiers pension suspended, was enjoy
ing trip to Yellowstone Park. prob.
ably free Of expense. Other officials
of the administration that hates the
soldiers of the Union were taking their
ease in various ways at the expense of
tho Government which men like Joseph
King preserved from destruction.
Ola Republican administration no
such comparison could ever have been
drawn. No blind soldier was ever de-
prived'of pension by a Republican Sec
retary of the Interior. No Republican
official ever treated with cold and cruel
inhumanity the claims of the Union
veteran. The sightless eyes of Joseph
King, in his desolate home, speak more
eloquently than flashing orbs could
speak of the barbanty and injustice of
the policy which would crush theUnion
veteran to crafty Confederate hate,
and to answer the Mugwump demand
for sham economy in the interest of
British free trade. New York Press.

No body denies that Walter Brown

W. E. f. Milburn, the well known
lawyer, thinks he ought to be given
the nomination because he can make a
loud speech and is Republican.
John Brabson, banker and lawyer,

Taylor, ought to hold full hand in
the race If influence, financial and
otherwise count.
A. b. Bowman, recent revenue col

The Hon. R. R. Butler, always heard

Will Cleveland Speak!

From various parts of the country
news continues to come in Of manu-
featuring industries shutting down on
account of the general and justifable
dread of legislation by the Democratic
President land Congress hostile to
American labor. The latest important
announcement of this character is that
the Amoskeag Cotton Mills, at Man
chester, New Hampshire, employing
eight thousand operatives, who prob
ably represent not less than twenty
thousand persons dependent upon the
mills for support, are about to shut
down, by vote Of the directors, for
the month of August. This is, we be-
lieve, the first time that there has been
such shutdown in the history of the
Amoskeag corporation. From Woon-
socket, Rhode Island, comes the news
that the Slater Woolen Mills, Webster
Massachusetts, are about to close down
the entire plant, employing about eight
hundred hands, until further notice.
And these are but new instance added
to many going to show the dread
and apprehension which prevail as the
established interests of the country
come nearer the destructive power Of
Democratic legislation.
Why does not Grover Cleveland, as
President of the United States, restore
these thousands of people to their
means of support by declaring that
American industry is not to be as
sailed, that the tariff for the protec-
ton of the American workingmau will
be maintained, and that American
labor will not exbe posed to the
low wage competition of Europe? !?
Such declaration would restore con-
fidence, reassure manufacturers and
merchants and remove that dark cloud
of uncertainty that has hung over
business interests everywhere since the
9Th day of last November.
Let Grover Cleveland give the assur-
ance that there is to be a halt in the
attack on American industries, that the
tariff is not to be assailed, and that
the policy of protection Is to be main
tanned, and the Press deliberately as
serts, with full knowledge of prevailing
conditions, that within one week after
Mr.. Cleveland has spoken every lathe,
every loom and every spindle in New
England will be in operation, and
comfort and happiness will take the
place Of gloom and desolation in many
thousands of American homes. Will

In urging revival of the income tax
to make good "the deficit in our reven-
ues when we reduce the customs
duties, " the Atlanta Constitution says;
When we consider the tremendous
drain upon the people for a generation
in the shape Of 90 per cent. tariff,
Federal pensions and other expenses,
1t will be seen that the income tax
would afford greater degree of relief
thanany other one thing could give.
b 1t is such demagogic utterances that
have tricked ignorant and thoughtless
voters into making war upon their
own welfare. No tax whatever is laid
for Federal pensions and other ex-
penses," as the Bourbon free trade
organ intimates. Practically the
whole incdme of the national Govern
ment is derived from tariff duties and
internal revenue taxes, a fact any
common school child should know by
this time. The greater part of the
receipts is obtained from duties on
foreign goods. Out of these receipts
are paid, not only Federal pensions,
but other expenses. of the Federal
Government, including principal and
interest of the national debt.
The statement that Federal pensions
have been drain" upon the people
for generation is too ridiculous for
serious controversy. No patriotic citi-
zen believes them to be ''drain"
today, especially when the rise in
wages and fall in prices that have
occurred in the last thirty years are
taken into consideration. The money
paid for pensions goes at once into
every nook and corner of the land. 1t
is promptly disbursed by the pensioners
to merchants of every kind, and it
plays very important part in stimu-
lating and developing domestic trade.
An income tax, however, would be
drain" that would be felt in every
section of the country. 1t would be
putting penalty on thrift and indus
try. 1t would punish success and re-
strict enterprise. 1t is odious, inquisi-
torial and un-American. New York

Scribner's Magazine for August is, as
usual, a fiction number, containing six
short stories, five of them illustrated,
and instalments of two short serials by
Robert Grant and Harold Frederic.
This idea Of fiction number was first
realized in midsummer, 1889, and it has
proved one Of the most popular features
of the magazine. In it have appeared
an unusual number of short stories
which have become famous, several Of
them having been the beginning of the
national reputation of we'll known
authors. This year the writers Of short
stories represented are: Thomas Baily
Aldrich, H. @. Bunner, Sarah Orne
Jewett, Howard Pyle, W.,H. Shelton
and Grace Ellery Charming. The art
lists who illustrate the fiction Of this
number are equally skillful, including

The Ornamental Handicap on Woman's
EmanclpatiOn.


There is no doubt, even to the aver
age masculine mind, although the
possessor of the mind may not publish
the fact on the housetops, that the
most interesting product of this en-
lightened century is emancipated wo-
man. There are certain enthusiasts,
though principally of the emancipated
sex, who are already so confident as to
the rapid future progress and ultimate
glorious evolution of womankind that
they are ready to venture the predic-
ton to people whom they think they
can trust, that sooner or later there
will be no more men. Whether this
desirable result is to be brought about
by the gradual extinction or shutting
out of the hitherto sterner sex by
process of killing kindness, or by the
discovery Of a system OF generation
whereby women only will be pro-
created, is not foretold by these seers
of the future; accordingly, while one
might not be warranted in dismissing
the theory as untsnable, its fulflss
ment may fairly be regarded as q re-
mote expectancy, and consigned to the
consideration Of real philosophers,
There is no doubt though, that wo-
man has been kept down for genera
tions, and, has only just begun to bob
up serenely, 10 hazard q acolloquial
metaphor. The eyes Of civilization are
upon her, and there is Legitimate curl
osity from Christiana to Yokohama to

other, including Josephine's plant, it
seems rs though woman would have
much palmer sailing in her. progress

that she Is 50 exceedingly good look
