Adamses. Samuel was one of the
most prominent flgnressin the Revo-
luton; John and John Quincy We're
both presidents of the United states,
besides filling other honorable
stations in the service of their
country. Among the remarkable
families of this generation are Cor
were, for two Of them have recently
died) the field brothers. David Dud-
ley was known wherever there is law
or lawyers, and at ninety his facul-
ties were as bfightas in middle life;
stephen j. has been justice of the
United States Supreme Court for
more than thirty years; it was the
indomitable pluck and energy OF
Cyrus w. that caused the Atlantic
cable to be laid in the face of untold
discouragements; Henry M. has
been for many years a distinguished
divine and literary man. A third
remarkable family is a railroad one

Rising Wages.

II is gratifying to be able TO ehron-
icle an advance in the wage scale.
1t is a blessing the effects from which
| will be felt all over the United states.
On last Sunday it was announced
the Riverside Tube Works OF Wheel
ing, w. Va, had posted notices CIV
! ing all Of their men, 200 in number,
an increase in wages Of ten per cent.
On the Wednesday following the
New York Tribune announced that
the Carnegie Steel company, employ
ing nearly 1900 men, had decided to
advance "the scale rates TO all ton
mage, day and turn men, ten per
cent. from and after June /. The
advances noted are the more graft
flying because Of the demand for adj
vances in other Industrial works
will probably prove irresistible. 1t
is to be hoped II will; il Is to be
hoped il will spread until the 100000
or more manufacturing workers OF
the United states shall all have had
raise. And they will because the
advances noted are direct conse-
quence of the overthrow Of that party
whose advent to power was followed
so speedily by reductions Of wages
all over this country. BY no stretch
Of the Imagination can it be claimed
the advances noted are due to any
act or any provision properly charge
able to democracy. That party
came into power pledged to knife
every industry in this country, to
open wide the doors of competition
to the products of European cheap
labor. The elections of 1893 served
to call halt in the program mapped
out. Internal dissensions arose, and
the result was tariff law satisfac-
tory to no one, providing insufficient
revenue, protecting where the need
for protection was not felt and fail
ing to protect where protection would
have added to the Industrial wealth
of the country. Had the advance
followed the passage of that act
more speedy, or had confidence re-
turned before the overwhelming de-
feat administered to democracy last
fall, then it might make good its
claim to some part of the credit
But under no circumstances can 1t be
credited now with the advance

silver purchasing law, which repeal,
it was claimed would Immediately
restore the country to condition Of
prosperity during the panic of 1898.
The Herald, as 1t usually does, proved
to be bad prophet. Again we might
refer to the very many suggestions
that come from the tariff reform club
such as the destruction Of American
industries. No good came of any
such schemes propounded by So
called tariff reformers and Endorsed
by the un-American section Of the
press.
Let American editors who repre-
sent American sentiments be careful
before falling into the traps and
snares of the enemy that are set for
the sole purpose Of diverting atten-
tion from the one and main issue,
which ever stards plainly and clearly
before us, and which alone can de-
eide prosperity or poverty for the
American peoplethat is, the one
issue OF protection IS. free-trade.

The Tariff to the Front.

American Economist; a careful
examination Of our large list of eN-
changes during the past few weeks
has shown lis that republican editors
are realizing that the
tariff question is the main and most
political issue Of their
party. This is as il should be.
Before adopting any side issue as a
leading question Of public policy in
our national affairs, it is we'll TO
glance at the source from which 1t
originates, to learn hy whom il was
inspired, and what possible motives
can surround it, inspiration, Ii i,
furthermore, we'll 70 question
whether the promoters Of such
schemes have been successful with
any previous suggestions they have
made, OF whether amy one IF their
policies that may have become law,
was law Tint proved beneficial 70
the country.
For instance, We cite the case 81
the New York Herald, which clam
ored for the repeal Of the sherman

Already there is activity IN politi-

That Bond Shave.

Oshkosh Northwestern: The rea-
son for the Morgan Rothsehild bond
sydicateuneNpectedly depositing the
last instalIment OF gold in the treas
ury before IL was really due, Is now
explained The treasury, in addi-
ton TO citing the syndicate make
thirteen million dollars in handling
the bonds, has made another conces-
sion to it. Under the original con-
tract the syndicate agreed to import
from Europe one-half the gold de-
livered IN payment for the bonds
The purpose of this il ohvions. IL
was a good thing to have thirty-two
millions Of gold brought from Eu-
rope instead Of taking it out Of
Americas present stock. The treas
contract has been SO modified as 70
require only one-fourth the gold de-
lyered for the bonds to be brought
from Europe. This lets the syndi-
cate out Of importing any more gold,
80 il simply got American gold from
the banks and made final payment
on tho bonds, thus simply transfer
ring the gold from the banks to the
treasury, where the banks can 20
and got il back as fast a. they want
it ON greenbacks and treasury notes.
The transaction, therefore, Is now
closed; the bonds have been taken
and paid for, and although the re-
serve is now over the hudred million
mark, il is now subject to the draft
upon it that has thrice before re-
duced II to the danger point, This
has been harvest for the brokers.
Several interesting facts are COM
ing 60 light in regard 10 the bond
issue. There was something very
strange and mysterious about that
bond issue that cannot escape public
attention. The bonds were not offered
ut public sale. nor were bids asked,
or public notice given that bonds
were 10 be issued. rhe newspapers
got hold Of the faet that prominent
money changers were in Gloss con-
sultation with the president and
treasury officials aud the suspicion
was aroused that negotiations for a
loan were going on. Before the pub
lie knew it, contract was entered
into for this bond issue, and II was
only after repeated demands and
finally threats that congress was

Tariff and Wages.

The Pittsburg Gazette yesterday
announced an increase in the wages
of several thousand mechanics and
labors employed in the great iron
and steal works at Bethlehem, in this
state. This is one OF the protected
industries, and if our information is
correct the increase is under the
Wilson tariff law--Pittsburg Post
(Dem.)
oh, then, protective tariff ''t8xes"
do increase wages do they? Wchave
always been under the impression
that our democratic friends held that
free trade was necessary to benefit
the wage wokers, and that a protec-
tive tariff only made the rich richer
and the poor poorer
1t is, by the way, notable fact
that the industries are reviving from
the depression, and in which the
wage workers are enjoying an in
crease of pay, are those affected by
the portions of the so-called Wilson
bill in which the policy Of protection
was recognized, in violation Of the
democratic platform declaration
that protection is d fraud and uncon-
stitutional These were, in some
cases, the features Of the Wilson bill
included i'm the senate compromise
bill, which Mr.. Wilson didn't want
to accept, and on which the free
traders said the war had only begun.

Fighting the Chinch Bug.

The attention Of farmers iii this
vicinity Is called to the following
circular issued by the Wisconsin Ex-
pertinent Station at Madison:
The chinch bug has appeared in
injurious numbers in certain sections
of our state. In such localities there
is great danger that corn may be de-
stroyed by it after the small grains
are harvested.
Experiments made during the sum-
mcr of 1891 established the fact that
with thorough work according to the
directions given below, the kerosene
emulsion will prevent the invasion
of Germ fields by chinch bugs, even
If the bugs appear in great numbers.
HOW 10 MAKE AND APPLY THE
KEROSENE EMULSION.
Slice half pound of common bar
soap, put in a kettle with one gallon
OF soft water, and boil until dissolved.
Put two gallons of kerosene in a
churn or stone jar, and to it add the
boiling soap solution; churn from
twenty to thirty minutes, when the
whole will appear creamy. If prop
erly made no oil will seperate out
when a few drops of the emulsion are
placed on a piece Of glass. TO each
gallon of the emulsion add eight
gallons of water and stir. Apply
with a sprinkling pot
Every farmer should learn to make
this emulsion, as it is a most useful
insecticide. 1t is especially valuable
for killing lice on cattle and hogs.
Apply with sprinkling pot.
The bugs will be very likely to en-
tereorn fields that border grain fields,
after the grain is cut. Before they
have had time to do this, pillow deep
furrow along the side OF the field
they will enter, and throw into it
stalks of green corn. When the bugs
have accumulated on the corn,sprinkle
with the emulsion. Put in fresh
stalks and sprinkle whenever the
bugs accumulate. ii they break
over the barrier, rs they probably
will, run few burrows few rows
back in the field, and repeat. When
they have attacked stalks of standing
corn destroy by sprinkling.
If the remedy is tried il should be
used persistently. To kill one lot OF
bugs and then stop will do little or nc
good. When the bugs threaten 70
destroy a. much rs five or ten acres
ii will pay one or two men to devote
their whole time to the warfare
Only part az each day, however
will be needed some corn will b
lost al best, but the most of the field
should be saved.
Any one trying the remedy is re-
quested to send the results Of his eN.
perience to this station.

AN industry That has been estab-
lished in this country directly
through the enactment Of the Nc
Kinlcy tariff is that Of making con
densed milk. The Anglo-Swiss
Company, for instance, has its fac
tories in switzerland, in England
and In the United States, employing
some 1900 workmen In all three
countries. For labor of similar quail
ity the American receives HI per
cent. more money than the average
rate of wages paid TO the Swiss
woker, and l3i per cent more than
the average paid to the Englishman.
without protection to the American
condensed milk business the Ameri-
can wage-earner will be likely to
have reduction of about 100 per
cent. Ia his earnings, or the factories
would be closed and the entire work
be conducted again in Europe.
