The New Tariff Law.

We are now to experience the ben.
e6cent effects OF Democratic tariff re-
form. They promised to reduce the
tariff on the necessaEies of life and iav
the burden OF taxation ON Injuries.
Instead We find that many necessaries
come in for higher taxation and many
''luxuries" 60 free or are given less
tariff. Sugar, one Of the principal
''hecessaries of life," that Is used by
rich and poor alike, comes in for .
tax Of 10 per cent on the raw article
aud still larger tax on the refined as
Il protection to the sugar trust. This
tax will increase the cost of sugar to
the consumers not less than II per
cents per pound. The per capita con.
sumption OF sugar is 63 pounds. The
population of Missouri is about 9, 7OO,-
600 and our annual consumption OF
sugar is about l7O,lO0,OOO pounds;
this at an increased cost of II cents
per pound will make our sugar cost
Us @2,55l 500 more than under the
AaKialay aak%. This asa - more than
sufficient to pay all the expenses OF
our State government This increas.
ed tax will average about $4,000 to
each congressional district and will
apply alike to all the states and ter.
rlt0ries of the ucion. See what our
public servants have done for Us.
"But the Missouri delegation nearly
all opposed the sugar tax" Yes, and
they nearly all opposed the 'crime OF
49, in demonetizing silver, yet they
nearly all support the party that i'm
posed those outrages upon US. The
one increases the price OF some OF tue
necessaries of life that we must buy
while the other decreases tue price OF
all things we have tn sell. Such "tar-
if reform and monetary reform"
ought to kill the party that does the
reforming (?) and relegate all to the
rear who support it. Verify, We are
having some very costly ''object les
sons" as result of Democratic ascen.
dency. Yet Democratic congressman

Gov Stone Gets Down on HIS Marrow
Bones.

Bones
Our readers will remember that
Gov. Stone, during the strike, and
while Gen. Joe Shelby was swearing
IN all the deputy marshalls he thought
would be needed to run the state,
made weak, sickly protest and ask
ed Gen. Shelby what he was doing.
All remember the way he answered
the governor, by substantially telling
him that 1t was none of his business.
that he was acting under orders from
Attorney General Olney, and it would
be we'll for Gov. Stone to attend to
his own affairs. He wanted the gov
ernor to understand that he had put in
four years of his life at the head of
an army, and during that time was
not particularly responsible to any
body, and much less would he he to
Gov. Stone now. At this the govern
or's royal blue Kentucky blood boil
ed, but he did not have the courage
or manhood to stand up for his state
or her people, but would let man
like Shelby run riot over the state
with his crowd of hoodlums, rather
than make single move to defend
the state that he had held up his
hands and swore he would Now that
it is over, the governor wants to 90 to
the senate or any other place that will
elevate him, Notwithstanding his COW
ardice, he makes overatures of peace
to the doughty general by saying that
he can be made governor at the next
election if he will only come over on
the si'e Of the governor. Shelby,
with all his faults and short comings.
Indignantly spurns the offer by refus-
ing to do anything of the kind; bad
as he is, little rs he cares for any
body's rights, he Is not base enough
to 60 to the feet of a coward like Gov.
Stone. He has courage and manhood
enough left to dispise the cringing
coward that did not have manhood
enough to stand up for the people of
his own state. Reckless as Joe Shell
by is, little as he cares for law, order,
decency, morals, sobriety or good gov
ernment, shows more of the spirit of
man, now than Gov. Stone does,
who is willing to take all the insults
Shelby heaped on him, for the sake
of little political advancement. No

An Honest Appeal by President Hacket,
of the Missouri f. & 1. y. for
Jealous Energetic Work.

of the Missouri f. & L. U. for
Jealous Energetic Work.
To the membership of Missouri:
Having been elected president Of
the Farmers and Laborers Union of
Missouri, at our recent state session
held at Warrensburg, [ desire to adj.
dress few words to the membership
throughout the state and to all friends
of labor, the wage earners and wealth
producers.
This is an age of organization
everv class, every occupation is organ.
lied for self protection and mutual
bettermenl All other occupations
are more closely and effectually or.
ganized than are the farmers and farm
laborers. We need organization
now more than at any other period in
the history of our country. The scrip.
tural admonition, "Ask and ye shall
receive" is only applicable in our ma
tlonal economy when backed up by
the power OF organized numbers.
Every fair-minded observer, of what
ever occupation, will admit that our
order, the Farmers and Laborers
Union, has exerted a powerful influ-
ence for good, not only in strengthen
ing the social ties Of brotherhood and
stimulating careful study OF polit'-
cal economy, whereby our political
views have been broadened and liber.
allied, but it has enabled the wealth
producers, in state and nation, to make
very material advancement toward q
realization of our just demands. But
this work is only begun-we cannot
afford to sacrifice the fruits of our la
bors in behalf Of our beloved order.
Brethren. appeal to you to stand TO-
gether, to ie.double your efforts in an
earnest endeavor to sustain and ad.
vance our organization. Re-organize
your lodges, subordinate and county,
elect new officers from among your
tried, efficient members. Where ad-
jacent lodges are weak in numbers,
&C nsolidate and make good. strong or.
ganizations. Do this at once. Get
into communication with our State
Secretary, Brother j. w. Long at
Kirksville, who will furnish you with
all needed information. Pay up your
state dues and secure the new p. W.
so that your lodge will be in close
touch with those in all other parts OF
the state. Don't delay but begin now.
We must sustain our obligations-it's "a
principles and capabilities for good
merit our warmest support and should
stimulate our best efforts in its behalf.
In conclusion, brethren, lie: me again
appeal to you on the strength Of oul
fraternai ties, on the love for your
country, your home and your families,
to lend your united efforts in sustain.
ing our organization.

The Good Derived from Conventions.
By HATTIE CRAIG.

By HATTIE CRAIG.
We will first see what good the
convention does the town in which it
is held? Rev. Henry McEwin says
of the New York conventions: sThe
business men of the city thought it a
wild dream of the young people when
they heard of the thousands who
we're to come. When, however, ii
was over, they anxiously asked when
it would meet here again. Large bills
Of sale accomplished what sober state
ments Of our committee could not do.
that is convince them that there were
thou usands of delegates there and that
they were not penniless. The enter
prising saloon keepers read the pa
pers and made preparations. They
were the one class of people which
had always reaped harvest from
conventions. They turned sadly away
from tL:s one" So the n. Y. con-
vention proved to the business men
that the C. Z. did not consist of
few dyspeptic religious cranks, but a
happy throng of young people. work
ing for our Savior, and taught the sa-
loon keepers temperance was not a
sham.
Many new G. f. societies have been
formed in or near the convention city
which otherwise would not have been
organized. The warm, vital breath
of the convention often puts new life
into dry bones of a half dead society.
and turns 1t into prosperous society.
This itself means life in the church
es. The church feels the influence of
the convention in other ways also.
Many faint hearted Christians, who
have begun to feel that possibly the
devil vas getting the upper hand, will
return to his work with renewed zeal.
Mr.. \. r. Grafton says: "If these
conventions did no more than bind
together in one fellowship the twenty
five or thirty denominations, repre-
sented in its ranks, | believe it
would be worth meeting once a year
TO listen to the strains of ''Blest be
the tie that binds" as they float Leav-
onward, impresses us the day is not
far distant, when all Christians will
take for their motto: Zone is your
Master, even Christ Jesus. Even the
members who stays at home derives
some benefit from the convention.
Everyone who goes, stores away in
his brain and note book some of the
convention and with more or less en-
thusiasm and impart it to those at
home. They can also derive benefit
by praying for it and 1t will be ans
wered in their own hearts, as we'll in

undoubtedly attract their attention,
and convict them of carelessncss in
regard to their duty to their church,

Harrison's plurality was 63,747. The
counties in which the count has not yet

while the Republicans gained in every
county, ranging from 30 votes in wyom.

eight of the thirty congressman in this

The result is due in part to the financial

Chairman Babcock Continues: 1.-THE
returns indicate that we have secured con-
troll of the next senate by a majority of 1
to8, without counting the vote of North
Carolina, which has undoubtedly elected
Republican Legislature" When asked
how he accounted for this great political
change, Mr.. Babcock said:
II have stated repeatedly during the
campaign t, It believed there was a crisis
In the history Of America as great as the
civil war. Values have shrunk since the
Inauguration of Mr. Cleveland to a greater
extent than the entire cost of the civil
war. People Of all classes have suffered to
greater or less extent, and the Americans
have never failed to meet squarely any
great issue when thoroughly understood,
and believe that the sense and patriotism
oil the American people have once more
come to the front and decided against free
trade and foreign manufactures and for
the development of our own institutions,
and what firmly believe to be in the in,
terest OF all concerned, whether rich or
poor.
1.-THE tariff question is settled for years
to come, and when the present law Is
amended it will be done by the friends OF
protection. The Republicans will do away
with Democratic gerrymanders, having
carried he entire north and west, and
will reapportion the states, thus assuring
Republican majority in the Fifty-Hfth
congress, which will secure the confidence
OF manufacturing and agricultural inter
ests. l feel assured that the result of this
election will be to place business and
manufacturing once more upon basis
where calculations can be made and bust
ness prosecuted in the ordinary way.
We cannot hope to recover from this
great depression Immediately, and We
must to great extent feel the i'll effects
of the present tariff law, but the question
is settled AS far rs free trade is concerned,
and all interests will feel that they can
prosecute their several lines of industry
without fear of having their factories
closed or being forced to sell their manu-
features and agricultural products in com.
