Move Your Family West.

Some years ago song with the
above words for refrain was very
popular in this country. 1t was a
companion to Horace Greeley's $50
west, young man." Now, however,
that exhortation has lost its force, be-
cause, taking West" as a synonym
for wild and unsettled country, there
is no West. Still. the American is a
restless creature not yet rid of the
nomsdic instinct inherited from his
pioneer ancestors, and about this time
of year many are considering change
of location. Though there is no long,
er much government land, nor any ex-
tensive regions without cities and
towns, there is as much room as ever
for new corners. Minnesota has mil
lions of acres of forest and prairie yet
unoccupied; Nebraska, where corn is
king, offers splendid openings to the
industrious farmer and the hustling
business man; Wisconsin has many a
good chance for the man who is wide
awake; Missouri has wealth of soil,
timber and mineral for the persistent
seeker; Colorado has treasures of
silver and gold not yet discovered;
Wyoming has room for flocks aud
herds innumerable; northern Kansas
has an unsurpassed climate and wide
expanse of fertile lands; the Black
mineral wealth; while the older states
of Illinois and Iowa have golden OPP
portunities for both farmer and
business man, though little more
capital is needed than in newer regions.

The Empty Dinner Pail.

As ST here idly dreaming of the happy time
that's gohe
Not dollar in my pocket and the winter
The thing that breaks me up the most and
makes me feel so small,
Is the sight Of my old dinner pail that's hang
ing ON the wall
I've carried that old dinner pail for fifteen
And il never saw me out of work or destitute
before
For with shops and factories running and the
best OF wages paid
prosperous lot of fellows was the dinner nail
brigade
But you see. we wasn't satisfied, though il
seems most mighty strange,
Ana We said we thought the country would be
better Tor change,
Ana we rallied about the Tariff and we blowed
about Free Trade
And we voted democratic-did the dinner pail
brigade.
Wen, change was what we wanted. and we
got It too, you bet
For the shops and factories all shut down and
left us in the wet
The banks suspended payment. and | lost my
little all,
And the dinner pail is empty now that's hang
ing on the wall.
I'm dependent now, on charity for the roof
And I've seen my wife and little ones go hun
CRY to their bed
But I've plenty time for thinking, and see it
For we voted democratic, just TO have a little
change.
Yes, we voted democratic, and YOU see the
change mas made
A lot OF hungry beggars OF the dinner pail

The workingmen are idle, but the wormw, cd
and the gall
Is to see the empty dinner pail that's hanging

Some Curious inconsistencies, says
The Spiingti Id State journal, are be-
Jug discovered Ia the tariff bill. Foi
example, il is found that the duly
upon iron ore is higher than the duty
upon pug iron, or steel ralls-that Is
tue rate upon raw material exceeds by
1915 per cent that upon the finished
products. The bill as reported TO tue
senate imposes specific duty of 40
cents ton on iron ore, which is
worth an average OF 81 Ii per ton on
shipboaId. when imported from Cuba,
the principal competing product /.
That is equivalent To over 35 per cent
adj valorem, while the proposed duty
On steel rails, of which this ore is the
chief constituent. is only 2215 per
cent. And so as to cigars. The bill
reduces the duty upon imported cigars
aud tobacco 50 per cent and increases
the internal revenue tax upon domestic
cigars made of tobacco grown in this
country from SO To So making the tax
on The domestic product greater than
that on the imported article. 1t is
claimed tina; there are 100000 persons
engaged in cigar making in the United
Safes, who represent a capital of
$3.50, OO0. 900 invested in the business,
aui they will he heard from when
they find this out.

Are They Vindicated7

In an apparent attempt TO deceive
the public, some of the Democratic
papers are declaring that the granting
of the non suit in the roster trial
the defendants from all
charges of an attempted fraud upon
the state. The State Journal thinks
otherwise, and as an evidence of its
good faith makes the following offer:
We will give 500 to any reputable
Democratic lawyer in Wisconsin who
SIll make affidavit that he has read
the testimony and rulings by the cou t
submitted in the roster case. and is
that the defendants are

One of the ablest advocates of the
b nnett law in the famous campaign
OF 1890 was heard To say, recently
that lie believed that the object of
that law had been more fully accom-.
plished in the defeat OF its champions
than would have been possible had
they succeeded. The schools to
which it would have applied have
been in almost every instance sup
piled with all the English instruction
which the law contemplated. The
trend of public sentiment was rec
Ognized and quietly complied with.
Many teachers who could not give
English instruction were discharged
and sought employment in other
states. Had the law been sustained
at the polls there would doubtless
have been persistent attempts at
evasion, and it would have been long
years before the time would have ar
rived when it's advocates would say as
they now do, There is no need for
such law; the conditions which de-
m inded it have disappeared. The
case reminds one of the war of 1912. IL
was fought TO establish or overthrow
certain alleged right. The treaty of
peace which followed did not contain
"A ~ liable in regard 10 the chief cause
of the war, but it has remained buried
ever since, and AS effrctually as If a
whole volume of declaration and
stipulation had been written and
signed. Whitewater Register.
