one of the benciicent (?) effects OF
the high protective system to the
farming community OF the west is
that il enables the eastern manufac.
turer TO accumulate large fortunes in
profits on the goods the farmer is
compelled to buy from him or do
without, and then when the farmer
needs some money 10 tide him over a
season Of crop failure or TO improve
his farm, the philanthropic mauufac-
turer willingly lends him "a part of
the money he has extorted from him,
through high protection, at high
rate Of interest and secured by a
mortgage on the farmers home. The
process goes on, the farmer grows
poorer until he is no longer able to
pay the interest, when his eastern
friend inyokes the law and the "un.
fortunate farmer" is turned out with
his family TO rustic. Farmers of Ok
lahoma, don't you think this process
has been going on long enough9 The
Democratic party is pledged to put an
end TO il. II has already made good
start in that direction aud il il shall
receive the support and encourage
ment from the people of the country
in its efforts In their behalf, the good
time coming will not be long de-
ferred.

Protectionists make a great ado over
the placing Of wool on the free list by
the new tariff law, asserting that it
will destroy the wool growing indus
try of this country. But this like all
the declarations from that source
touching the question of the tariff, is
simply an assertion without the
slightest foundation of fact Ameri-
can wool is 10y far the best for manu-
featuring purposes of any produced in
the world, but there is not enough to
supply the demand of our own manu-
facturers and it is mixed with foreign
woods in producing the better grades
of goods. Free wool will enable the
manufacturer to procure the cheaper
grades of the foreign product at less
cost. This will enable him to com
pete with his goods in the markets OF
the world, increasing the output of
his mill, which in turn will call for
more home grown wool. SO that. in
stead Of running the wool industry the
effect Of the new tariff law will be TO
stimulate it and make it more profit
able, while giving the people OF this
country just as good clothing and
other ~oolen goods at reduction in
cost OF twenty to thirty per cent
There is no guess work or supposi-
tion about this The prices of woolcns
have already been cut BY the mqLu.

FALSE cLAIm-rALsr rarony

The main plea set up in defense of
high protective tariff by the disei-
Piles Of Mckinley is that it secures TO
the American artisan and laborer
higher wages, thus enabling that
class OF citizens 10 better feed aud
elothe their families and educate their
children, and so bold and persistent
has the claim been urged that many
people who have not investigated the
subject have been inclined 20 accept
the assertion as a statement of fact,
and are 4 irsuaded to lend their sup
port 10 the party that defends the
damaging fallacy The statistical
tables prepared by the census bureau
of the government and based upon
data as OF 1880 show that the average
wages paid in the New EBgland
manufacturing districts by industrial
establishments, for whose especial
benefit a high protective tariff was

The depletion of the treasury of its
gold during the past two years was
the result, in part of the Mckinley
law. That law fixed the rates OF duty
on imports in some instances so high
as to be prohibitive, and England aud
European countries. where American
securities are largely held, being un-
able to exchange manufactures with
us, demended payment Of principal
and interest on what we owed them in
money and gold was the only kind

In the Democratic congress, recently
ended, had accomplished nothing in
the way of reform but the repeal of
the force bill, that would have been
enough to entitle il TO the gratitude
of every honest citizen of the nation.
1t was not enough that public senti-
ment had compelled its abandonment
as an active statute. SO long as it
remained unrepealed it stood rs a
menace to the untrammeled exercise
of the voting privilege, subject to be
called into operation at any time upon
a political whim or from partisan
prejudice. But it is dead, and will
never more harry and humiliate the
honest American voter.

the section hand on the western rail
road receives. This was the rate paid
in isso. and while that was a high
protection era, the alleF cham
pions of labor promised that the
Mckinley law would increase the
wages of labor and bring higher
prices to the farmer, yet reduce the
cost Of living to all. Base absurdity.
What are the facts? In brief; the
Mckinley law closed moro factories
and mills. threw more people out of
employment forced the prices Of farm
products lower and brought abo ut the
most disastrous results to tho industri-
al. commercial and financial interests
of the country Of any era or period
since the colonial days.
McKinleyism closed the gates Of
this country against the competition
of the foreign manufacturer but left
them open for the free entrance of the
"pauper labor Of the world to com
pete with the American artisan. The
result Of the infamous policy has been
a. stated. II is false in theory and
des :ruetive in effect And yet Republi-

the laboring people of the country by

they and the country have suffered.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.--Before Sec

lad conference with the Chinese
minister concerning the Chinese
treaty which was ratified by the sem
ate short time before adjournment
IF congress Minister Yang Yu told
Secretary Gresham that owing to the
war, which overshadowed all else, no
lction had been taken by the Chinese
government. The treaty should first
nave been ratified by the Chinese gov
srnment, but in this case the Chinese
government awaited the action of the
United States. China has been of
icially notified by the state depart
ment of the ratification of the treaty
IN the part of the United States, and
as soon us il is ratified by China and
official notice given the United States
ratifications will be exchanged by the
two governments and procldmations
issued No action will be taken by the
United States looking to the enforce
ment of the treaty until President
Cleveland issues the proclamation.
Then the secretary of the treasury
will issue instructions to the collect
ors of customs in accordance with the
terms of tho treaty,
Secretary Gresham and the Chinese
minister discussed the present permits
Of the treaty, and the minister was
assured that as soon as the action of
the government was officially received
the United States would proceed with
its part of th c contract.

BECAUSE President Cleveland refused
TO approve the tariff bill as it passed
the two houses of congress, but per-
mittcd II to become n law without his
signature, certain citizens are wont to
declare that he has weakened in his
former position in favor OF tariff re-
form. A brief paragraph from his
letter to Representative Catchings Of
Mississippi, written on the eve Of
adjournment of congress, is sufficient
to explode any such idea; Free raw
materials and just and fearless regu-
lation and reduction of the tariff to
meet the changed conditions would
carry to every humble home in the
land the blessings Of increased com
fort and cheaper living That, in
brief, is the Democratic idea and the

ONF Of the popular declarations of
h, Bjam Harrison, the great phrase
maker with his party is that cheap
clothes betoken a cheap man" If that
were a correct estimate Mr. Harrson's
party is responsible for the cmbarass-
ing characterization in thousands and
hundreds of thousands of instances.
Under the high protection regime
comparatively few persons could afford
to buy the better grades of goods, not
that the great majority of the people
are careless of their personal comfort
or indifferent as TO appearances it
was matter of necessity. But that
era is now passing away, and with it
the opprobium of cheapness as applied
by protection doctrinrires, will soon
lapse into desuetude. An era of cheaper
clothing-cheape in price but better
in quality-is now opening upon the
country under which all viii be bet
tered and none injured.
