1T must be admitted that no
tariff measure can accord with
Democratic principles and prom
ises or bear a genuine Democratic
badge that does not provide for
free raw materials. In these
circumstances it may well excite
our wonder that Democrats are
willing TO depart from this, the
most Democratic of all tariff
principles, and that the incon-
sistent absurdity of such a pro-
posed departure should be
emphasized by the suggestion
that the WOOL of the farmer be
the FREE LIST. and the protec-
tion of tariff taxation be placed
around the IRON ORE and COAL
of CORPORATIONS and capitalists.
How CAN WE FACE THE PEOPLE

Deserving the City in July.
Two Of them had evidently just re-

they made no particular effort to
conceal the fact. They greeted the
third girl with little screams Of sur
prise and delight.
Why, how well you do look after

Lere. that the senators who have the largest
wool interests are In favor Of free WOOL
Kirwln, Kan.
There are no members of congress
either in the house of representatives
or in the senate, who are republicans
and protcctionists, who favor free wool
either directly or indirectly. There arc
some dyed in the free wool democratic
senators, however, who, while honestly
not in favor of free wool at heart. vet
vote for free wool. These gentlemen
are Senator Briee, of Ohio; Senator
Martin, of Kansas; Senator Roach. of
North Dakota, and Senator White. of
California. They are all democrats and
they have been bound hand and foot in
caucus by the free trade senators of the
south TO stand by the senate finance
committee in whatever sort of a tariff
should be recommended,o or rather what
ever sort of tariff could be patched
together to secure majority OF a
single vote. Owing to the weakness Of
these democratic senators in pledginR
themselves to what they do not believe
in they were prevented from voting for
the protection of the wool industry.
None but the free traders are in favor
of free wool. The present dominant
party, com used of democrats and popn-
lists, who ass traders, intertraders and
free traders, even in votes, were in the
majority and carried the day.

The Bill has been passed and
President Cleveland's opinion of
it is very readable just now.
There is no excuse for mis-
taking or misapprehending the
feeling and the temper of the
rank and file Of Democracy. They
are downcast under the assertion
that their party FAILS IN AB1LI-
TY TO manage the government,
and they are apprehensive that
efforts to bring about tariff re-
form may fail; but they are much
more downcast and apprehensive
IN their fear that Democratic
principles may be surrended.
Every true Democrat and
ever sincere reformer knows that
this bill in its present form and
as it will be submitted TO the con-
ference, falls far short of the
consummation for which we have
long labored; for which we have
suffered defeat without discour-
agement: which in its anticipa-
lions gave US a rallying cry in
our day of triumph, and which
in its promise of Accomplishment
is so interviewer with Democratic
pledges and Democratic successes
that our abandonment of the
cause or the principles upon
which it rests seems PARTY PER

Fight with Deputies.
The bloody and riotous scenes OF q
few weeks ago are being repeated
throughout the coke region, and ter.
ror reigns on every hand. A fierce
battle occurred Sunday forenoon be-
tween deputies and strikers at the Le-
mont mines of the Mcclure Coke Com
pany, located three miles north OF
Uniontown, Pa, in which one man was
shot dead and three others fatally in
jured, two of whom have died since and
another will die within the next twen-
ty-four hours. All are Slavs and strik-
ers from the Lemon plant, where the
conflict occurred.
The battle was one of the fiercest in
the history of the strike, about fifty
volleys being fired. The st ikers had
assemb' ed, nearly 400 in number, and
had in their possession four workmen
fr> m the Valley plant of the d: c;
Fricke Coke Company, whom they had
captured on Saturday afternoon, and
were holding prisoners at the company
houses. A posse of deputy sheriffs un-
der Matt Allen attempted to rescue
the workmen and were fired on by the
strikers, who we're we'll armed with
revolvers, clubs, and stones. This
precipitated the battle, which last
ed fifteen minutes. Volley after
volley was fired at range OF
only seventy-five feet, and the shots
were fired to kill. The deputies
were all armed with Winchesters and
revolvers, while the strikers we're
equipped with nearly fifty revolvers.
In addition to those killed and wounded
by bullets from the Winchesters the
clothes of the deputies were shot full
of holes and several of them were bad.
