1t is to be deplored that the ten

nate agriculture to manufacturing
and commerce; apparently blind 10
the fact that il it were not for the
fruits OF the first named industry the
other two could not exist. liz the

tbs Republican party in 1890 and its
complete triumph in 1896 brought
about corresponding subordination
of all American interests to the manu-
facturing interest. The farmers, be-
ing exporters, get no 'sprotecticn. !"
At the same time they pay enhanced
prices on the manufacturers' products
and see the whole domestic aud for

Take This to Yourself.

Subscriptions amounting to nearly
$500 are at this time due the Chron-
icle. If we have to call on each indi-
vidual to get our money, it will force
Us to travel a thousand miles, to say
nothing of the expense of keeping a
man and horse to do the collecting.
We put it as a question to each one.
is it right to entail this expense on us,
when each subscriber could send in
his dollar with little or no trouble or
expense? We ueed the money badly
to pay debts past due, and ask each
aud every one to take the matter
home to himself and act accordingly.
We have had an unusual amonnt of
sickness to contend with this winter,
and feel that our subscribers owe us
special consideration at this time.
