without being obliged to pay toll or Gus
toms duties. But instead of that, he Is
obliged to sell his produce in foreign
markets in competition with cheap labor
countries, and buy his supplies where
prices are the highest. 1t is claimed
by the protectionists that it is good for
the farmer to have protective tariff
laws even if the home market does not
absorb all of his produce, because for
what he does sell at home he gets bet
ter prices, but that is not true. The price
of grain in every town in the United
States is the same as the price in Liver
pool, less the cost of laying ii down in
that market. while the cost of manu-
factured articles is the price of them
in Europe with the cost of transporta-
tion and customs duties added. Recip-
rocal trade relations and not protective
tariff is what the American farmer
needs.

THE ASSOCIATED VILLAINY'

If the people of Los Angeles have it il
mind to elect j. H. Martin to the office
of mayor of this city they will save
themselves expense and trouble by de-
claring the election off, and let the
Southern Pacific and the water COM
pany detail one of their henchmen to
run things" Mr. Martin Is mere cog
in the political wheel of that monopoly
combination, but the wheel itself is
turned at the combines headquarters.
and the people of Los Angeles may rest
assured that with Martin as the cog for
this city, they will be ground very fine.
The combines organ, the Times, admits
that 95 per cent of the people want mu-
nicipal ownership of the water supply
system, but that makes no difference to
the combine if only it can manage to slip
the reins of government into the proper
hands.
The people should understand that
the first purpose of the combine is to
have the water companys franchise re-
newed for long term of years, and
failing in that to unload the plant upon
the city for about $4,000, 900 more than
it would cost to duplicate it. Thus, it
will be seen the combine is playing for
big things. and if any one supposes it
will leave a stone unturned to accom-
plish itS p,,rposa ba carta irIv ic q worry
Gull and stupid individual. No doubt
Mr.. Martin is personally a very cor
rect man, but as the representative of
the Southern Pacific Railway company
and the water company combine, he is
not at all the tight man to trust with the
welfare of the people
1t is denied that the Southern Pacific
has taken a hand in the fight, but all
the same 1t is in it up to its eyes. Not
that it is interested in the water COM
pany in financial way, but by helping
that concern to capture the machinery
of the city's government it would be in
a position to demand extraordinary
privileges and concessions from the city
for itself. The trouble is, monopolies
like this combine can afford to keep mix
ers and fixers in the field working up
schemes every day in the year. while the
people have to attend to their individual
business enterprises, and consequently
when a fight of this sort comes off the
combine is all prepared. Nevertheless,
the Herald does not believe the people
by this lass ociated villainy," as the
Times calls it.

Explorer Stanley, although a large

Rev. D. Marshall Randles, president of

spread of Christianity

Miss Julia Goddard, who died the other
day at Little Ashton, near Sutton Cold
field. England, was the eldest daughter
of the late S. A. Goddard, American
merchant, at one time United States
consul in Birmingham. She will be re-
mem bered from the active interest she
took in the promotion of kindness to AMI
mails. Her zeal in the cause may be es-
timated when it is stated that she per-
sonally examined 1000 papers on the SUBJ

James Toleman Of Bristol. England.

"potwalloper' in Great Britain. Before
the passing of the reform act in 1882, the
potwallopers" were, in political sense,
an important body in some of the Eng
lish boroughs, and they possessed the
franchise because they were able to
Doll their own pots" BY the decease
of Mr.. Toleman they become extinct.
