1t is certainly disgusting to see the
settlement of the tariff question de-
layed and impeded by the wanton in
difference of Democratic members of
Congress. 1t is hard to tell who are
the more reprehensible, those who re-
fuse to go to Washington 10 perform
the duties they were elected for, or
those who skulk in their seats, refus-
ing to vote to advance the considera-
tion of the subject as if they were
afraid to get up and express their hon
est opinions in open debate.
We are especially sorry to see that
New Jersey has been on both lists OF
offenders. Thomas Dunn English of
Newark, who ought to be above ST oh
conduct. was one of those who were
present in the House on Saturday, yet
who twice refused to answer on roll
call on the resolution of the Commit
tee on Rules setting a time for the de-
bate on the tariff and the taking OF
the vote on the bill. 1t is a pity Mr..
English should diminish his high re-
putation by this cowardly course. Let
him emulate the course of Mr.. Cock
ran of New York, who, though OPP
posed to an income tax and to other
features of the Wilson bill, still voted
with his party every time to bring the
matter to a spec dy issue.
On the list of absentees, we have the
following Democratic members from
New Jersey:-Mr. Cadmus, Mr.. Cor
nish, Mr.. Fielder and Mr.. Geissen-
hainer. The two New Jersey Repub-
licans, Gardiner and Loudenschlager.
1ere also absent.
Here is indeed an outrage on the
people of this State. While our in
dustries are idle, while our people are
impoverished, while our banks are
feeming with idle money, six of our
eight representatives are absent from
Washington when their votes would
almost have sufficed to hasten IN that
settlement of the industrial question
which means work and money to all
the people, and a seventh of our
representatives refused to vote.
The fault of the democrats is much
greater than that of the republicans.
On them and their party rests the
responsibility of the situation and of
its solution. They are r%ecreant to the
interests of the whole nation and
traitors to the cause of Democracy in
thus Sinking or ~neglecting their
duty.
The people will do well to mark
these men. Some of them may come
np for reelection. OF course, they
may yet redeem themselves; but let
the people watch them. If they COLI
tinue in their present course, let the
full vengeance of the voters fall on
them next November.

THE Hon. GEORGE B. FIELDER
was exhibiting his shape around town
on Saturday, while his vote was
gitally important to his party at
Washington, and ten thousand men
were standing idle in Hudson County
waiting for a settlement, n way or
the other, of the tariff question.

Memorial.

At meeting of the Board of Diroc-
tors of the First National Bank on Mon
day evening, June 18th, 1894, the fol
lowing memorial was adopted:
We, the Directors of the First Ma
tional Bank of Great Bend, desire to
place on its records an expression of
our feelings of profound sorrow for the
sudden death of one of the members of
this board and the president of this
bank, Edward L. Chapman. In his
death we have lost most earnest and
rity, candid and genial temper won for
him the high esteem and warm affection
of all who came in contact with him.
The bank has lost most valuable Off
Ger and director, whose kindness, hdel-
ity and good will entered into all his
business transactions. He had reached
that point in his career when knowledge
and experience combined with natural
executive ability made him useful to
counsel and direct. We greatly deplore
his untimely death.
To his beloved wife, daughter and
manly sons and other members of his
family we extend our heartfelt symPa-
| thy

Why are sad farewels so often spoken?
Let not your heart be troubled God knows best;

Messenger

THERE is one popularity about
democrats that the followers of any
other political party do not possess. 1t
is this: When they possess an opinion,
based upon their honest conviction,
they are not afraid to express it at all
times and upon any occasion that may
arise. They possess the belief that
every man is created free and equal,
and that the political opinion, as to
party policy or party pledges, of the
humblest is of as much value and i'm
portance as that of the more favored.
They care more for party principle than
Cor party policy, and would rather GO
down to defeat knowing they are right
than ride to victory on a pretense.
They are more independent in indi-
vidual action, and cannot be led
against their convictions by any facti-
ons or leaders. While this proves them
the truer American citizens, it also
gives the opposing parties whose be-
levers are drilled to follow their lead
ers certain advantage in the pursuit
of spoils of Office. 1t has ever been
thus, and doubtless ever will be. We
are glad it is thus. We would hate to
believe that the party of our choice was
made up wholly of a lot of know-noth-
ings, or cuckoos if you please, who for
ever came and went at the beck and
crat or set of democrats become re-
creant to the trust imposed in them
they merit, and receive the condemna-
ton of their party, OF at least the ma
Jority of that party. Such condemna-
ton may sometimes create dissention
and division. but it strengthens any
and all democrats who are in the right
and eventually wins the respect and ap-
proval of all honest opposition

THE delegates from Barton county to
the State and Congressional democratic
onventions are representative men.
They will, between now and the third OF
July, inform themselves of the wishes
of the democrats of Barton county and
vote in such conventions as their con-
stituents desire, The question of stu
sion or anti illusion was not discussed
by the gentlemen who selected such
delegates; they are trusted to represent
the wishes of Barton democracy. The
opinion of the writer is that the state
convention should nominate full tick
ct, composed of democrats throughout;
place them on clear cut, plainly
worded platform opposing female suf-
frage, asking for this repeal of the farce
known as the prohibition law, favoring
the free coinage of silver; the election
of United States senators by direct vote
of the people: demanding a readjust-
ment of railroad freight rates, and en-
dorsing the national democratic plat.
form of 1892. With such a platform
we can command and win the support
of all who believe in honesty of purpose
and integrity of principle, and who have

platform will be adopted.
