We do not believe that there ever
was time il the history Of this coun-
try when the sentiment in favor Of
. policy of protection for our indus
trial interests was stronger than it is
now. Democrats who we're ardent
supporters OF Mr.. Cleveland and his
free trade policy four years ago now
unhesitatingly declare their belief
that the present hard times hera are
traceable directly to the Wilson tar
if law, and the only hope for relief
OF the country lies in the enactment
Of q revenue law that viii afford am-
pie protection alike TO labor and to
capital, and that will concurrently
Weld all the revenue required by the
Government. The people OF this
country have learned through the
hardest and sternest Of all schools
experience-that q surplus in the
treasury is not as bad as a deficit, and
that there can be no permanent and
substantial prosperity in this country
as long as we continue the suicidal pol
icy of sending annually hundreds OF
millions OF dollars abroad to purchase
the products Of foreign cheap labor
while our own working classes are
living in idleness and restitution. II
the face of this condition of things it
is idle to talk about relief in currency
reform. The chief cause of the hare
times and the congested state Of the
currencyway be found in the un-Amer
lean and unwise industrial policy o

According to the New York Jour-
nal, Mr. Bryan's experiences at At
lanta, where he delivered a lecture
last week, were of such Notifying
character that he has concluded to
cancel his contract and withdraw
finally from the lecture stage. 1t APP
pears that Mr.. Bryan wanted his
tour to be conducted greatest modest,
the advertising in the newspapers and
bill posters to be Of the most unosten-
tatious description. Indeed, this had
been stipulated in the contract, but
when Mr.. Bryan arrived in Atlanta
he was Mortified to find that his ideas
of simplicity and dignity in advertis-
ing were far removed from those of
the syndicate which has charge of his
tour. 1t is to be inferred from the
JOWYR0ES statement that the bill pos
tiers were of the same retiring mod
esty which characterizes the mani
moth sheet of many colors with which
the enterprising advance Of q circus
placards the walls of a country town.

pictured in all the cOlOrs of the rain
bow, standing in a group with Wash
ington and Lincoln, 2)rinau$ ii1te5

allied that he had been betrayed and
that the syndicate intended to force
him into a vulgar notoriety and keeI
him there as long as it paid. 1t is tC
Mr.. Bryan's credit that he at once
dissolved his relation with his mana
gers, returned to them the sum of SO,
900 which had been paid in advance
for ten lectures, and has now returned
to his home in Nebraska with his dig
nifty and self-respect in his own keep
ing and not at the mercy of a syndi
cate which was specializing on hi
reputation.

SENATOR-ELNCT WELLINGTON was
one of the several prominent speakers
at the Merchants and Manufacturers
banquet in Baltimore on Thursday
evening last Responding to the
toast, Cuba Libre,' he said that the
American people should be the leaven
among the nations of The earth for
freedom, liberty and elf-government.
They have demonstrated their capa-
biIity to constitute and preserve re
public, and their ASPIRATION should
be to see other natiOnalities enjoying
the same great heritage, which of
right belongs to them. But" said
he, while the sympathy Of this ma
ton should be with any people strug-
Cling 10 accomplish independence, we
should be slow to enter into a quarrel
on their account with another nation
to whom we owe much, and with
whom we have no disagreement such
as would warrant war; that if there
be any nation among all European
peoples that deserves commentator
for it's conduct in the great transac-
ton which brought about the dis
coverv of America, that nation is
Spain. If there is to be a sentiment
in matters of State, we owe Spain a
debt of gratitude. An interference
would mean war with Spain. Wal
under any circumstances isa calamity
but q war without just cause is &
crime. and, notwithstanding Spain
may be a weaker power, there is nc
assurance that she would stand alone
and the grayest of consequences NIGH
follow. And it is not well that the
United States shall gain the reputa
ton Of a B0mbastes FurioSo or Don
Quixote. among the motions of the
earth. The duty the United State
is to attempt by friendly intervention
to amicably arrange the quarrel be
tween the mother country and hel
dependency, and by so doing confer ;
greater benefit upon Cuba-a milde
government than she would have
she were made sole ruler OF herself.

just thought | would drop you a
few lines giving you an item or two of
news from this place.
On last Thursday evening | under
stood that Joseph LashOrn, a citizen
of this town, had standing rule of
getting up a supper every New Years
eve, when it is his custom to send out
a number of invitations SO that his
table may be furnished with guests.
Being under the impression that |
should have a welcome with others.
| made bold to go, and perhaps you
may judge Of my surprise when |
reached his domicile to find it crowd
ed-the little folks upstairs, the adults
below began to cast about in mind
whether our host would be prepared
to supply food sufficient for all pres
ent. The younger folk passed the
time very pleasantly till supper was
about ready, at which time it began
to be whispered that there was to be
/
fore supper commenced. All other
| pleasure was suspended at once, and
it was understood that Rev. William
| L. George was to be the officiating
minister. Very soon, if | am a judge
of numbers there must have been not
! less than seventy to witness the mar
riage. In a few minutes in came Il
young gentleman and leaning upon
his arm one of Deer Parks fair maid
ems, and as it cannot any longer re
main a secret, | will give you the
names of the bridal pair. Here ,they
are: Mr.. Philip Roland Hess, of Pied
mont, W. Va, and Miss Annie Viz
ginia Marley, of Deer Park.
Now comes the call for supper, and
as near as could judge from seventy
five to eighty partook of bountiful
repast, and still large supply was
left over.
The clock was by this time being
closely watched, and at ~ o'clock
general salutation of Happy New
Year took place and the report of
fireworks was heard, after which the
guests began to dispense
In conclusion, | must say that
quite enjoyed the event, and | think

at the close of the present year may
make Mr., J. Lashorn another call.

Farmers Tool Chest.

A good tool chest is almost a neces-
sity to every well regulated farm, but
very few farmers have one, in fact
we believe one-half the money spent
by farmers for the smaller tools is Of
ten thrown away, for two reasons;
the first is, in the country it is hard
to get tools of tirst-class quality, and
the second is that most farmers have
no convenient place to keep them,
so their tools get battered up, seat
tered around and eventually are lost,
or become useless.
If you want a chest of good tools,
our friands, the Powell Fertilizer and
Chemical Company, Baltimore, Md,
have solved the Tool Chest problem
most satisfactorily, and we think if
you will read their offer as made in
their advertisement published in this
issue you will investigate their plan
for getting Tool Chest free.

Another Spelling Recornar.

The Hon. 3. Johnson, OF Mound
Valley, Kan, is a specimen Of the
legislators elected by the POpulists OF
the SunfiOwer State TO make laws for
the commonwealth. Beside subscrib
ing to the Populistic doctrine to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
and gold at the ratio of 16 to I, with
out waiting for The aid or consent of
any other nation, The Hon. b. John
son believes in the free coinage of Or
geographic forms regardless of the
aid or consent of dictionary men and
spelling book makers. He has writ
ten the following letter, which is on
file in the Office of Secretary OF State:
Decambar 10, 1896.
ito hon. secretary of staff topeka,
kauS.
Il was eleckted representative of
the 26 distrecte and have not receive
de emmy certificate of elecktion from
you cording to law. please send me
one or staff the reasons while. respect
fully youres, -
"B. JOHNSON"
1t is to be hoped that there is no
conspiracy TO keep the Hon. b. John
son out of the seat to which he was
elected by an admiring and apprecia-
tive constituency, and that he has by
this time received his "certifecaito or
the reasons whie.'
1t would appear that Mr. Johnson
is valuable addition to the collec-
ton of freak statesmen produced by
Kansas in recent years, and nothing
should prevent him from taking his
place among them. Perhaps he will
introduce a new scheme of spelling
reform.

THURSDAY. JAN. :, 1884,

THE Republican press of Kansas is
trying its best to shame into silence
the Populisttc calamity ho%lors who
have SO terribly injured the State.
This is sensible as wei as patriotic
While Kansas has suffered in common
with the rest of the country on &C
count OF The hard times, and also on
account of troubles peculiar to the
region, she is still in very much better
shape than is generally believed.
This is particularly true Of the eastern
half of the State, which is doing as
well as any portion Of the United
States. \ large portion OF the people
who migrated to Kansas were eXcep-
tionallv intelligent, forceful, indus
trious and thrifty They were mainly
discharged Union soldiers and fine
types Of the class. They have done
wonders in Kansas in making the
naked prairies blossom as the rose, and
they are now standing up for Kan
sas,n as valiantly as they once stood
up for the country on the battlefield
and they will succeed in lifting from
their beautiful State the cloud that
now hangs over it.
