THAT WHEAT STORY,

-Four years ago Bro. stivers, Of the
Journal, filled the columns Of his paper
with editorials, saying that if the DEM
ocratic party and free trade were sue.
cessfnl, wheat would be worth 81. so to
$500 a bushel as it ought to be and
that the low prices were due to Re-
publican protection. Republicans said
the country was then prosperous, but
if Democracy and free trade succeeded
j a panic and hard times would ensue
and prices would be lower. Democracy
won and Republican predictions proved
true. Baai1erd Dispatch

The sscounty exhibit" feature of the
coming State fair will be better than
ever this year. Applications for space
have been made by a much larger
number of counties than last year. In
addition the exhibit Of agricultural
products will be supplemented by ex-
hibits from Oregon, Washington,
Idaho, Montana, North and South
Dakota. Instead of being a State fair
this years show will be of the nature
of Northwestern exposition.

MEN deceived once are human; men
deceived twice by the same men:are
fools. Speaker Reed.
The people Of this country have been
deceived once by the cry of the Demo
cratic politicians that higher prices
for the farmer and general prosperity
would come with a low tariff. They
have cheated the people once, and they
hope to cheat them again. The voters
are human, but the great majority of
them are not fools. F'd1ibaatN Republic

ON NEW LINES.

The presidential campaign is likely
to be unique this fall, for it will be
waged on strongly marked lines and
will be, it is hoped, an exercise of rea-
son. Even the tariff is less important
than thesq question of honest money and
what constitutes it. Time was when
mud Singing was large part Of a
campaign, but that has ceased to be-,
which is far the better: Crooksto'a

PROTECTION BENEFITS AGRICULTURE.
One of the great lessons of history is
that agriculture cannot rise to it's
highest perfection and reach its fullest
development without the aid Of com
merce, manufactures, and mechanical
arts. All are essential to the healthy
growth and highest advancement Of
the others; the progress Of one insures
the prosperity of another. There are
no conflicts, there should be no antag-
onisms. They are indispe to
each other. W hatever enfeebles one
is certain to cripple the rest. Hon.
Wsllsana Mckinley.

CRIMES CARNIVAL.
OUTCOME OF A SUNDAY MIXED ALE
PARTY.
A Mystery Cleared Up-Murder in
the Second Degree-A Famous
Bank svvindIer-A Druggist MUIR
dered.

LONG ISLAND CITY, L. L, March
THE outcome Of one of the many
Sunday mixed ale parties in the oil
works district of this city was the
death of Mrs Mary Kraemer and her
son Michael They both died from a
bullet in the brain. and although there
is some mystery as yet as to who did
the shooting, it is believed young
Kraemer killed his mOthep and then
committed suicide. Toward the end
of the afternoon the son, Michael, was
debarred from enjoying any further
festivities. The door was locked
against him, and he adjourned to his
own apartments.
Shortly afterwards his mother fol-
lowed him, and it was only moment
later when two shots were heard. The
door was broken in and Henry Boeh-
der, one of those who had been present
at the party, was found in the room.
He had a revolver in his hand and it
was with difficulty that it could be
taken from him. The policeL took him
in charge. He claimed that he had
heard the shots and had run down
stairs to find out what the trouble was.
His companions, including the other
two sons of the murdered woman, bore
him out in the assertion, but he is held
by the police.
The revolver with which the shooting
was done was the property of Michael
Kraemer, and it was this that BoehIer
had in his hand. One of the theories
entertained by the police in connection
with the crime, however, is that Mich
ael Kraemer, furious with anger at
having been kept out of the apart
ments above, where the festivities
were going on, had fired the shot at the
first person who went into his room,
and ON finding he had killed his mother
committed suicide.

PLENTY OF NERVE.

Now that the Spanish officials have
taken steps to protect the consulate, it
is not to be doubted that his personal
safety is assured, no matter what the
issue may be.
Senator Lodge said to an Associated
Press representative
The news from Spain in your dis
patches is grave. for it shows the
Spanish people and the Spanish edi=
tors utterly fail to comprehend the sit
uation here. They forget that they
recognized the belligerency of the con-
fsderacy within three months after
Sumpter, while we allowed ten years
to pass in the last Cuban war, and
one year in this before moving. We
have shown long forbearance, which
they failed to show us. l cannot be-
iieye the Spanish minister has been
instructed to protest against the ac-
ton and speeches of the senate. Such
a step is inconceivable. AS Mr.. Web
ster said in the famous HUFFMAN let
ter, it would be an interference with
our domestic affairs which no indie
pendent state could admit for a mo-
ment. trust and believe the Span
ish government understands the stu
alton and ours better than the Span
ish newspapers and popular meetings
appear to do and I have no doubt they
do.
'"There is nothing at all which should
affect US. The United States must do
what is right and what it is their duty
to do. We cannot suffer that useless,
brutal warfare to go en-, and that
slaughter house to be maintained and
our large business interests in Cuba to
be destroyed right at our doors and
under our eyes without protest and
without every effort which a great
and civilized nation can do to end it,
and to help these people fighttng for
their liberty"

three weeks ago seems to have been

of which he was robbed by bunco

a friend here but disappeared about
the first of July. He is supposed to
have been driven to suicide by des-
