Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1894-08-23

Except in the case of the sugar
schedule, the Senate bill is less objec-
tionabIe to the republicans than the
House bill is. The republicans want
free sugar of all sorts.-Globe Demo
crat.
IF THE republicans ''want free
sugar." why did they not pass free
sugar bill. 1t is true they admitted
raw sugar free, but no one uses raw
sugar. The republican scheme was
the same as the democrat republicans,
they were owned by the sugar trust.
All of these scoundrels should be
smoked from their holes, regardless of
the party name under which they sail.
All parties in the west are against
these vicious measure, but can they
unite on congressman who will pro-
tect them?-Winfield Tribune.

THE republicans announce that the
biggest guns of the party will be sent
into this district 1.-THE 7thl to help
Chester 1. Long out of the hole. If
Chester I. should go down again this
year land that is what he is likely to
do) it will be an indication that there
was some mistake about the calibre of
the big g. o. p. guns.

JERRY SIMPSON has declared that
the Alabama populists have deserved
their defeat because in their effort to
secure the state offices they abandoned
doctrine and made an unholy alliance
with the republicans on a plank as
strongly protectionist as ever appeared
in republican platform in any part of
the country.-St. Louis Republic.

Cleveland and Sugar.
The enormous impor alton of sugar
at New York has excited sugar dis

lection to the trust in the senate bill,
exclusive of the I-l0 cent on refined
sugar from bouuty-Daying countries,
at ASS cents hundred pounds. This
rate they say will be authorized 10 levy
upon l.Go0. .o0l tons year, which Will
amount to nearly $4,000, 900. Tnis

to give TO the sug-I trust in recogni-

establishment of the National bank
was a surrender of that power The
bankers have used it to their own ad-
vantage and against the people The
system of national banks, is a nut
she'll is, the people collectively as a
government loaning money to the
bankers at per cent and borrowing
it back at 10 and Il per cent The
banker gets interest on what he owes
and the people pay interest on what is
coming to them. No one doubts the
stability of the bank notes, because
they are backed up by the government
the people. They are based upon
the wealth and credit of the nation
But why the people should loan them
TO the banker at per cent and bor-
row them back at 10 and - per cent.
IS something that nobody but the
banker can explain, and he says sit is
business, you know" Many a demo
cratic speaker has pledged the party
TO repeal this system, but we find
when they have the chance they walk
in the footsteps of the republicans
and are really in favor of granting
the banks still further privileges-Mr
Voorhees, introducing a measure to
that effect. When the bill came up to
