The United Stitrs has as citizens peo-
pie from every country in the world. In
it's official lie there are ex-citiZans OF
perhaps all the important powers Of
Europe, Ii ha-, therefore. no desire to
unnecessarily offend any Of them.
But the United States began tins war
without asking the advice Of any other
country. II S;ll continue il until it has

1t began the war in its own way. and
will continue and end IL ~ It's own way.
The European powers closed their
eyes while Turkey massacred its Armen-

not consider that they are lit judges

ST. Louis Globe Democrat: Did Mrs.
BRYAN and Barley eve: hear Of a man
named Clement Z. Nal!andlneham: Mr..
EallanGlugAam wa the Democratic
leader in the house nf representatives, at
the opening Of the evil war. aS Bailey
theoretically is nov. Nalland;nGham, IN
a negative way at least, was rather pat
riotic at the outset Of the wf.r. When
FOuke, an Illinois Democrat. IN the eX-
ira session IN July, lSGl, got up in the
house and proposed that while the war
lasted all PARTISAN differences and de
signatiOns among loyal people should be
ignored, Eallandingham appeared to ac-
quIesce in tins arrangement Just as did
Bailey when The S50,Ojn,O00 appEopria
tIon WAS made few weeks ago. Nailaud-
iugham, after the wave Of PATRIOTIC emo
ton began to subside, proposed, as
New York Democratic paper tells us
Bryan has just done, That his party,
should do something for itself. In the
winter of lSGlG2 VallaudIngham. in a
series of caucuses, got most OF the
Democrats in the house to siga paper

to do now; he was beaten for the Cover

SOME of the cross roads journalists Of
Missouri who a week ago were Rngrily
chattering at President Mckinley for
not declaring war, are now abusing him
with the maximum force of a minimum
ability for getting Us into it. Aside from
the thought that this is 10 time for
reasonable criticism of the government
even by the ignorant and depraved, the
malicious Vaccinations of these jour
nalistic jays are as amusing TO contem-
plate as the antics of an enraged skunk
under bell glass. Fortunately for the
country Mr.. Mckinley is far beyond the
power Of injury at the hands of these
yituperatiye little tumble-bugs.

The Farmers and the Dingley Tariff.

1t is true that prosperity for the farm
ers is the foundation for general pros
perity in this country and that has been
particularly true during the past year.
The farmers of this country have been
more prosperous than any other class,
where all have benefited by the improv-
ed conditions. The unusual combina-
tion of immense crops with d shortage
in foreign countries and consequent high
prices for cereals, while the large pur-
ton of the crop was yet in the hands of
the growers, was the most important
factor in the agricultural sections, but
there were others.
While cereal crops brought one hun,
dred and thirty million dollars more than
was received for those of 1896 from the
above mentioned causes, yet farmers
were still further benefited by the re
suits of the returning confidence in the
effects of the DIngley Tariff law. The
opening OF the idle factories and general
resumption of manufactures, set at work
hundreds of thousands of idle men, who
at increased wages were enabled to buy
more, and the prices Of nearly all agri-
cultural products advanced.
The tariff increased the value OF every
sheep and head Of live stock and pound
OF cereals. The farm horses Oft the cUun-
try increased in value over 22J,0O,GO0,
mules over S6,000,O00, mlch COWS over
StJ,On0OD0, other cattle over 1000,
$50, sheep over $25,O01,G0O and swine
over Ss,0j0,000, total increase in values
during the year Of two hundred aud
thirty-six million dollars. This increase
was general Ia every state.
! With these Increases IN values the
farmers Of the United States received at
least five hundred million dollars more
for the products sold in 1891 than for
the previous year. When IS added to
these figures the Increased business of
the railways and manufacturing indus
tries, with a balance of foreign trade in
our favor of four hundred and nineteen
million dollars, with an increase IN our
individual bank deposits Of S2221,O1OJ
since Mckinley, honest money and a
Protective Tariff were assured, the rea
sons for prosperity are evident.

THE opportunity often makes &

The opportunity often makes the man.
There are thousands of men who have
never risen above a hopeless mediocrity
simply because there has been 10 tide
in their affairs which could lead on to
fame or fortune. Who would ever have
heard of U. S. Grant if there had been
70 civil war? How many people would
ever haYe shouted at the mention of
Dewey's name if we had had no trouble
with Spain" These men were capable
and brave and all honor Is due them and
their fellows who like them were favored
by the fortunes of glorious war. Still,
one cannot help thinking of the many
thousands of "vlllage Hampdens" whose
lot was fatal to their capabilty.

the fact the largest sales OF shoes ever

Tbe mystic MidRets and FAIRIES.

Fred II. Decker & Co., of New York, who
control the right of this cantata will be here
to give the complete staging. The young
people of our city have been hard at work
now for several weeks in the preparation
of this now and popular cantata and all are
looking forward to its presentation with
great deal of interest The success that has
been attending the cantata throughout our
State is we'll known to us and we are exceed
ingly fortunate in being able to secure pro
duction of this kind. A visit to the Mystic
Midgets will well repay the children of a
larger growth and glimpse behind the
scenes reveals the love of the mysteries and
the wonders of Fairyland. All the favorite
characters will be there. The Policeman,
the Prince, the Chinaman, the cute little
Coons Uncle Sam and many others, whom
we greet as old friends and while their latest
adventures are quite as interesting and cap
tivating as those of former days.
The cantata opens on the Isle of flowers.
The meeting of the Fairies on the first of
June and the celebration of the anniversary
of the flowers. The Queen organizes her
court, but is interrupted by mysterious Wis
itor, one of the Gnomes in disguise. A seri-
ous council takes place. They are made hap
by by the arrival of carrier dove bearing a
message to the Queen from the Mystic Mid
gets who propose making tour OF the world
and landing on this Island. The Prince has
with him his magic wand which is able to
conquer all things aye, even hearts.
After the representatives of each nation
have introduced themselves to the fairies,
the golden chest is delivered containing the
magic wand but the key is forgotten in the
hurry. The chest is afterward stolen by the
mischievous Gnomes containing the magic
wand. The Prince pledges his assistance to
the Queen and at the head of his standing
army starts for the fray. After numerous
conflicts with the enemy, they are finally
routed and the power of the magic wand
tested. The Gnomes are then turned into
Donkeys, Hogs, Pigs, Bears, ETC., and made
to dance and amuse the assembled guests.
The Queen gives her hand in marriage to the
Prince forever uniting the Mystic Mid
gets and the Fairies. The picture that is pre-
scented in the rendering of the different
marches, minuets, tableaus, etc., given under
the varied SHADES from the Calcium Lights
is beautiful beyond description. There has
been a large call for seats already. Many
available seats are yet to be had and it would
be well to make selection early as all Of
our people should see this new and popular
cantata, given for the benefit of the Reading
Room. at Washington Hall, Feb. 4th and
