Washington. July 5.-The reported state

be the signal for civil war; is accepted by

word that Debs and his associates ''are
rapidly approaching the overt act of levying
war upon the United States'' are adoted by

A Pleasant Toilet Water.

Take 10 fluid ounces of orange flower
water and mix with it fluid ounce of
glycerin and quarter of an ounce of pow
dered borax. Mix by shaking. This pre-
serves the skin, prevents the appearance
of greasiness or blackheads and will re-
duce the slight scars left after recent
wounds or scratches. If applied in time,
it will prevent the occurrence of scars after

When the strikers saw the train moving
they rushed up the tracks ahead of the

Shortly after twelve, the officials succeeded

was again started for the main line.
Cavalry troops K and B led the way along

KYLE'S SPEECH.

The sGgar-coated senator from
the state Of South Dakota opened
his speech by saying that the farmer,
who follows the pillow, knows more
about the finances of the country
than the banker or merchant.
He next begged his hearers not to
believe the Republicans because
they are telling falsehoods. This
statement reminded us very much of
the story of Fagin, related by Chas.
Dickens. A great thief and robber
was this man Fagin. He would pick
some mans pocket and then run into
a crowd and yell, ''stop thief! stop
thief" And the crowd would also
yell, "stop theft, and run in search
of the thief. While the crowd were
yelling ''stop thief" Fagin would
slip away, unnoticed and escape de-
lection. And while the oily-tongued
senator was telling his audience not
to believe Republicans, we could not
help but think of the story of Fagin
and the senator's vote on sugar and
wool.
The populists have always claimed
that the two old parties have only
revised the tariff issue in order to
pull the wool over the eyes of the
people while they put up money
Jobs, etc, on the people. If that
claim was true, then senator Kyle
is at that same kind of business, pull
ing ii wool over the eyes of the
dear eople. The populists have
also always claimed that there was in
r~ealit, no difference between the two
old pa ties If that is true, what do
you think of Kyle's democratic speech
on the tariff? What do you think of
kyle's free trade heresies that the
democrats have preached since the
day of Calhoun and were licked on
from 1860 to 1882?
What do you think Of Kyle's

This is only a partial list. There is
a long list of different kinds of labor
ers. The above is the average daily
wages for the kind of labor named.
The average per day in the United
States is s2.27 while in England it
is SO cents. There are 313 working
days in a year. The average Amer
lean labcrer earns $1,000 yearly,
while the average English laborer
earns $500. This accounts for the
fact that one member of a family
from the old country can come here
and work to bring over the balance
of the family, as is well known to
many of our voters who are foreign
ers, and why would this be so if
wages in this country were not as
good as in the old, rs smooth-tongued
Kyle would have you believe?
over this. my kind populist
friend.
Kyle said the labor organizations
have kept up the price of labor. If
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1894-10-18

this were so, the railroad boys in
Chicago ought to be getting about
$25. per minute. But labor organ
izations had their origin in Europe,
why did they not keep up the price
of labor there? 1t was anything,
with Kyle, for a subterfuge. Any
thing to hide behind.
Kyle says he voted for free wool
to make the price of wool higher.
Now does any sane man think that
by tnrning the cheap Australian
wool into this country, that is sold in
Liverpool for s to 10 cents per pound
will raise the price of wool in this
country? Kyle said wool, under the
Mckinley bill, went down from Il to
13 cents, but he forgot to tell you
the price of wool in London that
same time; that it fell from 20 to s
cents per pound for the same grade
of wool.
Then this slippery senator worked
his audience up on shoddy, and told
them "they all knew it,; but here
again he forgot to tell you how shod-
ed was fixed in the Wilson bill.
Shoddy, like sugar, is an article we
do rot produce in this country and
we are compelled to pay the tariff on
it in order to get it. Under the Nc
Kinley bill, there was a so per cent
tariff on shoddy and in the Wilson
bill it is Is cents; so you see senator
Kyle voted to make shoddy more
plenty, so you will get o of it.
Think over this, my populist
friend. Kyle wants the wool raiser
to raise wool cheaper than shoddy.
He voted to made shoddy 80 per cent
cheaper than it was, and he voted
for free wool to make wool dearer.
My kind popuIist friends, Who know
more about finances than bankers OF
merchants, please figure this out SO
it will jibe.
The senator then put a populist
tail On his democratic kite by talking
on the money question for five min,
utes. He said everything has gone
down, even to farm lands in New
York, but he forgot to say that
many farms in New York are worn
out and have ceased to produce.

A NAVAL ENGAGEMENT.

A great naval engagement was fought
between the American and British fleets
In English waters-or something stronger

bravely on the American side, while
they met foemen worthy OF their steel
In Lord George Hamilton. ADMIRAL OF
the Fleet Sir Godfrey Hornby, Gen.
Lord Roberts. the Duke OF Leeds and
other brave British officers. And the
historian. James Anthony Froude. was
present to make the occasion as famous
as the battle of the Nile.
1t was a spirited fight. Broadsides Of
compliments were poured into the Chi
cago by the British. and the Yankee YES
sells heavy guns fired some telling eu-
logles into the English fleet. According
to the London ewspapers the banquet
was regarded quite us an international
affair. and excited much interest among
the English people. Lord George Ham
alton presided.
Minister Bayard was present and made
q telling speech. While Admiral Erber
was the lion Of the occasion, some high
compliments were paid to Capt. Mahan,
both as a sailor and an author. The

not begrudge him the pleasure. Neither
does there appear to be any great amount

has been SO vigorously denounced as al
most reasonable, and is one for which
the famous ex-Puh. .Func. James Bu-
chanan would have exacted fearful penal.
ties.
Mr.. Cleveland returns to the White
HOUSE tanned by the sun and WIND and
reinvigorated by his trip, with three
hundred and fourteen snipe. ~twenty-one
bluefsh and three drumfish to the credit
OF the party. 1t is said. also, that a ma
jority Of the spoils may be credited to
the Presidents skill.
But. now that Mr.. Cleveland is back
again, he will find that no progress has
been made in the affairs OF the nation
while he has been away. The Senate Is
still ~"yapping." The country is still
suffering. Labor Is still unemployed.
Thousands are still in want Of food.
Business is still %stagnant. The pail OF
uncertainty still covers and smothers en-
terprise. The Democratic pledge OF tariff
reform is still unredeemed. The public
offices still remain In the hands of Re-
publicans In a great measure, although
the Government has been more than n
year under Democratic control. The tide
OF Democracy, recently rising so promis-
ingly, Is recedIng. The only change in
the United States Senate has been I'm the
disclosure OF attempts to brlbe and cor
rupt the Senators.
Now thai the President Is back. let us
hope that there will be some revival
of the real business OF the Government
with a more valuable result to show for
1t than three hundred and fourteen
snipe. twenty-one bluetish and three

DAIRYMAN SMITH SUFFERS.
Has Done No bushes Since Tuber-
cuIosis Was Found in His Herd.

Ex-senator Richardson. of Middletown,
has written a letter to the Board Of
Health complaining OF the distressing
circumstances in which Dairyman Ira
II. Smith, of Goshen, finds himself as a
result OF the discovery and publication
of the fact that his cattle were affected
with tuberculosis,

or the verge of financial ruin. The Con-
densed MIX Company, which purchased
the milk produced by his herd of twenty
four cattle, refuse to accept any more,
and all other markets "a been closed
against him.
The State Board OF Health. to which
the matter was referred after the dis
covery that four of the COWS were af-
fected with the disease. has taken no
action. Meanwhile his cattle must be
fed from his meagre savings, which are
about exhausted.
Some time ago Smith butcherei and
shipped to this city to be sold n COW
beef that had become useless as a milk
producer. 1t was seized at West WASH
inGton Market by health inspectors, who
found it fun OF tuhereles. II was pro-
