lost a $500 diamond in his wheat field
Kansas City Journal
Another instance of the wicked work
of Prosperity. If wheat had not been
bribed by the money kings to stop go
ing hand in hand with her sister silver,
Mr. Green would have been in no hurry
to visit his wheat field. He could have
gone to a Populist convention and en-
joyed the resolutions. The price OF
wheat is boosted by the Plutocrats and
straightway Mr.. Green is working hard
in his wheat field and is punished for
his weak yielding to Prosperity by
losing one of his diamonds. The. indl-
rect results of the ravages of Prospect
ty must be awful to number and look
at. Many Kansas farmer must have
lost valuable diamonds which he might
have kept if the country could have
been blest with continuing bad times.

THE NEW TARIFF-HOW WILL THE
CONSIMIR FARE?

After much strife the new tarin DILL
which will be known as the "Dingley
suoar-Trus. Tariff Bill" became a law
Yesterday. and it is as characteristic OF
the Republican party as It could posi-
blv be made. as its promoters boldly pro-
nose to for,o the people into active BUS
iness by opening bonuses TO Manufacture
under the guise of a high tariff and the
halls Of Congress have been reeking win
tho odors of corruption as sewer gas es-
GAPING from a stencil trap.
It will be impossible to persuade the
great body of the people that the sugar
schedule was not artfully devised IN the
interest OF the sugar trust.
II IS Iamentable that the Legislation
should have been such as to produce this
impression.
We have no doubt that many Republi-
can Senators honestly voted for the
schedule. but the suspicious management
of the bill has left upon 1t stain which
q will never lose, and will inevitably be
tho occasion Of fresh agitation OF the
tariff law. which will again disturb the
business of the country and produce In
Il another depression.
Now what will be the immediate effect
OF the law?
The moment the new law becomes ope-
rative that very hour prices advance and
the consumer will pay to the importer
upon goods already in the country the
price required under the protective sys-
TEN.
This is a good time for people to get
a little insight into the workings OF the
tariff business, and. indeed, 1t is so plain
that the least informed man or woman
may comprehend it, and see at glance
where the burden of higher tariffs fall.
For instance. say a vessel arrived In
New York Friday with an assorted cargo
OF merchandise, consisting Of cutlery,
carpets. shoes. buttons. gloves, thread
and crockery. the importer would pay
duty on them at the Custom House as
follows:
Cutlery-25 TO Is per cent.
Carpets-3O TO 40 per cent.
Shoes-2o to % per cent.
Buttons-35 to 81 per cent.
Gloyes-S3 TO 60 per cent
Threads Ia cents per dozen.
Crockery-3O 10 IS per cent
This duty. OF course. no adds to the
cost OF the goods, and then sells them
TO the consumers.
Should the vessel arrive. however, next

A good deal Of attention has been di-
rocted Of late TO the controversy now
pending between Mrs. Lease Of guber-
Material aspirations and an Eastern Trust
Company, which she characterizes as
"graspins and soulless corporation" be-
cause It is endeavorng to enforce the
payment by her Of the full measure Of
her obligation TO it.
il seems that Mrs Lease procured q
loan Of $500. which she secured by mort
gage upon her residence. The loan was
not repaid at its maturity, and the
mortgage was enforced. and the house
sold 10 satisfy the lien. Either tho Trust
Company had ovcr-estimated the value
Of the house, or real estate has rapidly
declined in value in Mrs. Lease neigh
borhood. al any rate the proceeds were
not sufficient TO cancel the debt. and the
Trust Company caused execution TO is
sue against Mrs. Lease property for the
balance thereof remaining due.
This latter day gubernatorial asPirant Is
evidently woman Of resources, end she
sknlfuly caused her property 10 disap-
pear in the twinkling Of an eye. so when
the officers called to levy their execution.
they found only two chairs and hus-
band. neither Of which were considered
available for their purpose.
Mrs. Lease proclaims to the nation that
she IS fighting for a principle. and that
"a
house and lot as security for the loan
were estopped from looking 10 her other
property TO repay them.
To the average layman unframed in
the mazes Of the law. Mrs. Lease fight
for principle would excite sympathy. AS
q matter Of fact. however. it is fair to
presume that she IS in error. If her
real estate was simply mortgaged for so
much money, with no recourse on her,
that was an operation or the part Of
the Trust Company. on which If suffi-
cient was not realized from its sale to
remunerate them, they must bear the
loss. Such a transaction, however, would
be most extraordinary, and it must be
supposed that her loan was consumat-
ed I'm the usual way by the giving Of
a personal obligation secured by the
title deeds to the real estate in the
question, in which event. 1t is perfectly
clear that the real estate failing TO
liquidate her personal obligation re-
course can be had against any other
property sho may have.
Either Mrs. Lease is absolutely right
or absolutely wrong with strong pre-
sumptions against her and she can hard
courts o. equity, or as a volunteer de-
fender of the race Of tho down-trodden
poor.

sion for the safety OF his females Is al
layed. That is just as certain as that
the alarm continues. We have the sim
cerest and kindlicst feelings for the negro
and we abhor violence and lawlessness
as the end OF all order and society.
But II IS useless 10 shut our eyes
TO facts. We pllinly perceive the rising
storm. and we know it will burst with
terrible fury II It goes on gathering until
tho climax is reached. What is TO
be done to dissirate the storm while 1t
can yet be controlled? We can think of
but one thing. and that IS tho conduct of
the negroes themselves.
We look, OF course. for nothing from the
individual brutcs who commit the crimes.
But II the respectable and conservative
men among the negroes would syste-
matically instI into the negro mind
ideas IN condemnation Of these assaults
something might be accomplished in the
way Of lessening them at least 1t is
useless for respectable negroes to say
they are opposed TO rape. Their opposi-
ton TO rape is lost sight of in their pro-
tests against lynching. Let them turn
an their guns upon the crime of rape
and they viii never have any occasion
to denounce lynching.
II all sincerity we warn our colored
friends that they had better begin TO
attend to this matter. Their continued
existence here as a race may be at
stake. They had just as well make up
their minds that the present condition Of
things cannot last and. as far as we can
make out, they are the only ones who
can exercise a controlling influence in the
case.
