GONE BACK TO OLD METHODS.

1t looks very much like the Republi-
cans have gone back to old methods
when they prescribe high tariff as a
remedy for the present treasury diff
cultios 1t is the old doctrine of
"bleed Kim again" With large sur
plus in the treasury and further addi-
tions to it in contemplation, the Re-
pubicans have only one remedy,
namely, more taxation. The farmer
who finds it difficult to pay his taxes,
settle his interest account and supply
the wants of his family is to be bur
dened with an additional load, not for
the benefit Of the treasury, but for the
benefit Of the political manufacturers.
Under the pretcnse Of helping one
farmer who raises sheep, nine farmers
who do not raise sheep are to be fur
thef taxed upon wooden goods, Under
the pretense of raising revenue the
lumber barons are expecting TO levy
tribute again on all who attempt TO
build homes or improve farms. And
| then the people are told that the pro-
posed tarig legislation is only an earn
est of what is to come If the Republi-
cans secure control in 1896 Just now
only morsel is 10 be thrown TO the
wolves that crowd around the halls Of
Congress, but they are kept at bay by
the promise of hearty meal in the
case of Republic success.
The Republican leaders dare not
meet the issue, they dare not declare
for monometallism or bimetallsm.
They seem To think that they can con
vert the money question into tariff
question and then administer protec-
ZIONIST treatment, They will fail.

incompetency aggravated by coward

rar spIRIrs PLAYED noRsr

novel story comes from Garfield
county telling Of the woes of spirit
ualist, which is pathetic enough TO be
worthy Of being chronicled The
spiritualist is a farmer and owns a
large number of hogs. The other day
while he was feeding his swine the un
fortunate man had the ill-luck to drop
his watch. Before he could recover
possession Of =. the whole drove Of
porkers bore down upon the time piece
and one of them swallowed it. The
farmer, not hiking the idea Of slaugh-
tering Fifty hogs for the sake OF recov-
ering one watch, bethought him of his
faith and set out In quest Of me-
dium. The medium kindly consented
TO lend his powerful aid and point out
with emphasis the hog that bad ticks
in his stomach, The pig was slain but
the chronometer was not in its person.
Then the medium said there was some
mistake but was positive he could
bring the watch to light with another
NAtilhEs hhbAhti tANNNbtbh hDbN PiHNN
only to be rewarded by another fail
ure. Day after day this propaganda
went on until some twenty hogs had
been offered up as sacrifices to time
and still the watch is hidden At the
present writing the spiritualist is con
/ fident of success, but the farmer is dis
heartened and refuses TO devastate his
hog crop any further. OF course, this
is no argument against spiritualism.
The spirits doubtless know where the
watch is, and are, may hap, simply
"playinr horse" with the confding
farmer. THIS being the case it is use
less for the poor man to try and induce
the jovial spirits to take the matter
seriously. The only logical course for
the farmer to pursue now is to line hls
swine in front Of the trough and count
them out with that ancient talismani,
ritual, beginning with "Enie, meenie
mimic. moe" This will at least b,
just as effectual and save the expens,
of employing a medium. The eA
change from which we draw our infoI
nation does not disclose the farmers
name. If it is Sly Oberlander, whcr,
did he get the watch and the hogs?
