AN EXPLANATION IN ORDER.

1t must be evident to all intelligent peo-
pie who have kept the run Of the produc-
ton and consumption of cereals that the.
best interests of the Western farm
er demand a cutting down of the,
wheat crop to the quantity which
can be consumed at home. 1t is. therefore.
very important that many acres now de-
voted to wheat should be turned to some
other crop. The duty which the Mckinley
law imposed upon barley has given the
market to the American farmers. Last
year only 573,Si6 bushels were imported.
Thousands of acres devoted to wheat in
1885 in Michigan, Wisconsin and other
States have been turned To barley. Every
turned to some other crop tends to i'm
prove the market for the remainder. The
duty on barley is now so cents a bushel.
In the Wilson bill the duty is % per cent.
ad valoreIn. which, at the present price,
means 10 cents a bushel. A proposition
was made and voted on to put the duty at
% cents a bushel, but every one of the In
diana cuckoos voted against the amend
ment and it was defeated. Indirectly, If
not directly, that duty would have bene-
fitted Indiana farmers.
In the same bill is a paragraph imposing
a duty of 11z cent a pound on imported
rice. There is no ad valorem duty on this
Southern farm product This duty of IL
cent a pound is equivalent TO an ad va
loren duty of so per cent. Statements in
Southern papers and in trade papers show
that rice culture is very profitable. Unlike
barley, rice is an article OF food which is
very acceptable to all people. Nevertheless,
the eleven Indiana Democrats in the House.
while refusing to give protection to an ar
ticle of value as a Northern crop to the
extent of 10 per cent. vote to put a duty
of so per cent upon an article of food
which every constituent would use. simply
to protect TO the utmost a branch of South
ern industry. They should explain.

Forewarnsd is forearmed. The decision of
the county officers to capture the next
Legislature for the purpose and in the man
ner indicated should put the people on their
guard. The movement is nothing more nor
less than an attempt to thwart the will OF
the people and restore the old system of
extortionate fees. The evils and abuses of
that system have been pointed out too often
to need repeating here. They were an out
rage on the people and utterly antagonistic
TO honest politics and good government.
For years past the people have been de-
handing the abolition of the old system,
the result being the enactment of the pres
ent law. That this law is crude and ILL
considered, and in many instances unjust

but it is a first step in the direction Of a
needed reform, and as such should be de-
Tended. Though defective In detail. IL is
right in principle. Its repeal would be a
step 1t should be carefully re-
vised and judiciously amended, with a view
of removing its defects, but there should
be no surrender of the principle on which
it is based. no backward movement toward
the vicious system it abolished. The an
nouncement of the county officers plan of
campaign makes it doubly important for
both parties to see that none but honest
and capable men are nominated for the
Legislature-men who will make no pledges
in advance. and who can be depended upon
to stand for the interests Of the people
against those of greedy combines and court
house rings.

General Sickles's memory runs back some
distance. LAS long ago as 1854" he said
in his speech on the Hawaiian question, IT
heard Governor Marcy say. and he was a
conservative and wise statesman of the old
Democratic school. that the Sandwich
Islands must never belong to any other
power, and in the course of events must be-
long to the United States" General Sickles
said he agreed with Governor Marcy then,
and he agreed with him now, and if it was
not good Democratic doctrine to follow
Marcy, and Buchanan, and Polk, and
Pierce. then he would have to go back to
New York and learn his Democracy over
again. He concluded his able and striking
speech with the statement that resolve as
we may, the decree of destiny is that sooner
or later the Hawaiian stands Will become a
part of the United States The trouble
with General Sick!es is that he is too good
an American to be a good Democrat of the
reiening school.

action with a veil OF secrecy shows they
feared it would not meet with popular APP

thereby secure either the repeal OF the pres

THEIR OWN POISONED CHALICE.

The remarks of Senator Allison to the
Journal representative in Washington as
to the policy the Republican Senators will
pursue in reference TO any tariff bill con-
tanning the features OF the Wilson mon
strosity seem to ave been made with a
view Of calling out the sentiment of the
friends of protection throughout the coun-
try. So assuming, the Journal is frank to
say that it believes that the course pur-
sued by the Republicans in the House
meets the general approval of the party.
Republican members might have assisted
the Democrats of Alabama, Maryland,
Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia in
placing a duty on soft coat and iron ore.
but they wisely refused. If those South
ern Democrats could have secured such
amendments they could have gone to their
constituents in the next election and asked
their votes on the ground that they rescued
those industries from the free-trade deluge.

in any other action. The element which
proposes to put wool on the free list should
plead in vain with Republicans to put a

South's pig iron and put cotton ties and
agricultural implements on the free list
