During eight years of free trade il
England there was an increase of 81
per cent in population, yet there was
a decrease of 42.S per cent in the pro-
duct of the English farms because free
trade enabled the farmers of other
countries to supply their markets.

Abraham Lincoln: 81 am not a
Knownothing; that is certain. How
could be? How can anyone who
abhors the oppression Of Negroes be in
favor of degrading any classes of white
people? Our progress in degeneracy
appears to me to be pretty rapid. AS a
nation we began by declaring that all
men are created equal. We now prac-
tically read it, all men are created
equal, except Negroes When the
Knownothings get control, it will read,
all men are created equal, except
Negroes and foreigners and Catholics. ;
When it comes to this, [ shall prefer
emigrating to some country where
they make no pretense of loving lib
erty,-to Russia, for ms tance, where
despotism can be taken pure, and with
out the base alloy of hypocrisy

Promises but no Performances.

Farmers should remember that our
exports of breadstufs this year to Aug.
81 were worth $44,oO0,000 less than
during the corresponding eight months
of 1893. In August alone there was a
decrease of nearly $1o,oo0,ooo. How
does that compare with the democratic
promises of 1892?

The attempt to lynch Negro in
Ohio last week presents striking con-
trast. Mob violence occasionally
occurs in the North, but it is met with
resistance and often fails in it's effort.
In the North there is an attempt to
maintain the majesty of the law, no
matter what the crime may be or who
the criminal is, whether white or
black. In the South there is no attempt
made to sustain the law or to resist the
acticn of the mob. The Negro in Ohio
was adjudged guilty by a jury Of his
peers and sentenced by the judge, and
the men who were unfortunately
killed were attempting to usurp the
authority of the courts and override
the constitution and bulwarks of social
order and civil justice.

Lady Dufferin was closely related
to Sheridan lie Fanu. of whom Lord
Dufferin tells little story. When a
little boy, Sheridan lie Fanu wrote an
essay on the life of man, which ran
as follows: "A mans life natural
ly divides itself into three parts-the
first when he is planning and con-
irving all kinds of villainy and ras-
caiitv; that is the period of youth and
innocence. In the second, he is found
putting in practices all the villainy and
rascality he has contrived; that is the
flower of manhood and prime of life
The third and last period is that when
he is making his soul and preparing
for another world; that is the period
of dotage"

The Old Democratic Lie Rattles Around

The Old Democratic Lie Rattles Around
and Is Again Exposed.
The old time campaign cry is being
rooted up from the hotbeds of demo-
cractic falsehoods in the effort to show
that manufacturers are charging lower
prices for their goods shipped abroad
than they sell the same articles for in
this country These old lies have been
contradicted time and again. The
falsifiers try to rig up an argument by
comparing a retail price in this country
with wholesale export price for ship
ment abroad, or by comparing the
values of articles of similar character
but of an entirely different quality. 1t
is the same old lie dished up again to
try and bolsterup the desperate condi-
tions of free traders. Here are two
letters that speak. for themselves:
OFFICE OF DEERE & Co.,
MOLINE, liz, July 15, 1894.
The charge that. American manu-
facturers sell for export better prices
than they do at home, so far as we are
concerned, is not true, Our prices to
foreign buyers are home prices, and
packing or packages extra. Goods that
are sold abroad at less than home prices
are goods that have gone out of date at
home, or that can not be sold at home
by manufacturers for the reason of
their having put d later pattern or inn
proved machine upon the market.
which, for home market, makes the
old style article unsalable overpro-
dnctlcR by a manufacturer may be dis
posed of at lower than home prices
where it completes with foreign goods

How much wheat did we ship an
nually to Great Britain in 1870 and
two years prior to that date; also, how
much in 1889 and 1892? ASA BOYD.
Englewood, Cook county, Ill.
Our exports of American wheat and
flour to Great Britain during the years
mentioned by your correspondent are
given as follows:
Wheat. Flour.
Bushels Barrels.
1868. .12 36S,4i6 4S4,706
1859 9........... l3 3556, $50 407 ,0S2
1870 ,27, ,sS7, 500 1,1SS,35l
1889. ..... 81, ,56S, ,536 5.271 ,344
1892 -. ~. .......... 81, ,293 $50 9,G03,910
The phenomenal growth of this ex-
port trade is astounding. Within a
quarter Of century, during the whole
of which protective tariff system was
in force, our exports of wheat to Great
Britain increased by $1,000, 900 bushels,
or $50 per cent, while our exports of
-four, which we also give in order to
make the exhibit complete, although
not asked for by our correspondent.
increased from 4s4,7o6 barrels in 1868
up to 9,603,9lO barrels in 1892. an IN
crease of nearly 100000 barrels dur
ing the quarter of a century, or gain
of almost 1000 per cent.
If we take 4 u bushels of wheat as
the equivalent of a barrel of flour, and
apply this to our exports of -four in
1868 and again in 1892, we find that the
total equivalent of our exports of
wheat and -four in 1868 was IA, $40, ,623
bushels of wheat, and that twenty-five
years later it has reached 10, ,511. .555
bushels of wheat, an increase during
the quarter. of a century Of very nearly
100, 100000 bushels in our exports OF
wheat to Great Britain. The farmers
of the United States have no reason
for saying that foreign markets have
been closed to them under the policy
of protection. On the contrary, they
have been increased to marvellous
extent.

KILLED THEM INSTANTLY,
oyer Fo rty Lives Lost When a German
warship's Boilers Exploded.


Kiel, February ia terrible boiler
explosion occurred today on the cruiser
Brandenburg at this port. The Branden-
burg had had new boilers placed in her,
and was on trial trip when the ex-
plosion occurred. Forty-one men were
instantly killed and nine fatally burned.
Among the dead were three chief engi-
neers on the vessel to report on the work
of the boilers, and several other officers.
AS soon as the effects of the explosion
were known to the officer of the deck, he
caused 81 gnals to be set showing the
vessel to be helpless. Five steamers went
to the assistance of the disabled warship
and towed her to Kiel When she reached
port, Prince Henry OF Prussia, the En-
peror's brother, Immediately boarded
her. 1t was found the explosion caused
much damage to the vessel. Prince
Henry helped direct the work of reliev-
ing the wounded. He questioned the
ships officers concerning the names and
homes of the dead and wounded. The
steam tug Pelican, the first vessel sent to
the Brandenburg's assistance, returned
to the quay with thirty dead bodies.
Thousands gathered at the landing
place. Four other steam tugs brouht the
wounded ashore. All were taken to the
military hospital for treatment

Honolulu, February SIN the five days
that have passed since the departure OF
the last mails little of Importance oc-
Cured until this morning when tine
Hawaiian Islands have once more been
thrown into wild excitement by the dis
covery o Royalist plot to capture the
council chambers at today's meeting by
killing the members with dynamite
bombs and then in the panic seizing the
military barracks. From trustworthy
sources it has been learned that the plot
was to throw powerful dynamite bonn bs
among the .nen bers of the council when
they were in session this afternoon, and
then in the excitement to have an armed
force invade the executive building and
seize the government Once in possession
an appeal would be made to British
Minister Wodehouse to recognize the new
government and send the British marines
to protect them. This he could do easily
because of Williss permission to him to
land English marines for protection of
British citizens. There is no question
that this plot has been arranged, and
that if there is any opportunity it will
be carried out. About the only way to
succeed is to inaugurate reign OF terror
by killing number of prominent pro-
visional leaders.

Thinks Christianity Is in Danger.
Boston, February 16-A special to the
Transcript from Honolulu, February 8,
via San Francisco, February Is says;
"The Hawaiian affair is sad blow to
missions. 1t is impossible to convince
any intelligent, educated half caste
member of the Congregational church
that there is any Christianity in the men
who dethroned the Queen, seized the
treasury, voted themselves salaries and
refused to abide by the decision OF Presl-
dent Cleveland, their mutually chosen
referee. The cause of Christianity is hurt
by Protestant ministers taking anneXa-
tion petitions into their churches for
signatures. The governments armed force
consists mainly of tramp whites, a most
undesirable class, who work simply Tor
pay and have no loyalty. An immense
order for cartridges has been sent,
although those on hand have not been
used. The government allows no one to
hold office save declared annexatlon1sts.
The native and half caste elements have
no sympathy, with annexation. Ihe
Hawaiian band, almost to man IN gov
ernment service and many for twenty
years, refused the oath of allegl-
ance. They were dismissed and new
band organized, but when the latter gives
concerts the natives and half castles stay
away while when the former band plays
on the government squares, great crowds
attend and the contributions are liberal.
