A TARDY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

"When it is demonstrated
that we can sell manufactured
goods cheaper in European mar
kets than we can in our own, >"
says Representative Warner,
(Rep.) of Illinois, "there does
not seem to be any necessity for
a tariff on goods of this class
The object of tariff is to
protect the American Ia
borer and to foster Ameri-
can industries | am in favor
of protecting labor and capital,
bat after commercial industries
have become SO strong as to be
able to undersell Europeans
in their cheap labor market do
not see that it is necessary to
protect these industries any
further.-Great Bend Tribune.
The Tribune, in publishing the
above in it's editorial columns
without comment, gives in
dorsement to the same. We
would suggest, however, that it
is pretty late in the day for re-
publicans to acknowledge the
truth of the robber tariff which
they have maintained for so
many years.
Democrats have always con-
tended that the sO-called pro-
tective tariff was a farce so far
as protection to the labOrer
was concerned, and was only
maintained for the purpose OF
building up monopolies and en-
abling aggregated wealth to
levy tribute from the common
people.
Time and again, year after
year, the people have had point
ed out to them by democratic
papers and democratic speakers
the inevitable result of the rob
Der tariff policy of the republi-
can party. You have been told
that the tariff taxes you paid
was assisting the combinations
OF manufacturers to perfect a
monopoly OF trade and finances.
Your attention has from time to
time, been called to the fact that
those protected industries were
shipping the same goods
across the ocean, paying the
freight on them, and selling
them to the foreigner for less
money than they were sold tc
our home people.
You have been told that the
wealthy manufacturers, growing
powerful by reason OF republican
favoritism, were rapidly concen
trating the business; freezing ou1
the small man; destroying al
competition, and placing them
selves in the position they holt
today, i. e: A position wher,
they can-and dO-dictate tC
the world how much tribut,
must be paid them.
1t is like locking the door afte
the horse is stolen for the repub
licans to now talk about doins

A city girl saw a land roller
trailing after farmers wagon
and asked what it was On be-
ing told, she wanted to know
what he intended doing with it.
"He is probably going to roll
his.oat field,' was the answer.
"Oh, yes!" cried the maiden
from the city. ssTo be sure.
That's the way they make rolled
oats, isn't it?'
: According to a Mcpherson
county exchange the meanest
man on earth has been found
out there. He sold his son-in-law
a half interest in the COW and
then insisted it was the front
half sold, calmly appropriating
all the milk while he forced the
young man to feed and water
the COW three times a day. The
COW recently hooked the old
man and he is now suing the
son-in-law for damages.
Not long ago ten live prairie
dogs were sent from Dodge City
to a lady at Dryden, N. Y. Now
the lady writes that she is hav-
ing an awful time with the
creatures; that they dig out of
their pen and eat the neighbors'
chickens, having killed fifty Of
them for one neighbor in one
night. Now this will be aston
ishing news to Kansans. If the
New York climate can make a
prairie dog take on the habits Of
the carnivora, we should not be
surprised if it could make a
Dodge City man drink water

LIBELoUs ATTACK.

s'Great Bend city officers have
entered upon the old plan of
fining joints $50 a month for
selling hoptea, as one of them
intimated, it was a feeler to see
what the people will do. Our
city is now run by a set of dis
loyal incompetents, who are un-
der the influence of joinists,
gamblers, buffers, prostitutes
and all their low vicious associa-
tions, and all the city asks of
them is a small portion of their
i'll gotten gains. =
"The city of Great Bend is
controlled today by a force the
most disloyal, incompetent, and
partial that has ever been in
power since the days of cowboys
and western ruffianism. The
Beacon made a fight against the
election of some of the present
officers, especially the mayor
and part of the council, but
some of our well meaning people
were misled by glaring and fat
tering promises, and were in
duced to support the very class
of men they we're aiming to
oppose, and now they are asked
to lie down under the shame of
disloyalty, pollution and even
completely with outlaws on the
part of some of their sworn
officers. Barton Beacon, of
July 18th.
While the DEMOCRAT is under
no obligations whatever to the
present city administration;
while we cannot endorse all it's
acts or policies; and while we do
not desire to enter into a news
paper controversy with the edi-
tor of the Beacon, yet our pride
of home, our love of our town
and county, and our respect for
truth and fairness compels us to
denounce the above quotations
from the Beacon of last week as
libelous, untruthful, unwarrant-
ed and a disgrace to our COM
munity.
Because the editor of the Bea-
con differs with the city officers
as to how public affairs should
be conducted is no reason why
he should thus vilely slander the
entire citizenship. The majority
of the voters Of our city-both
men and women-placed city
affairs in the hands of our pres
ent officers; they did it after a
most thorough discussion OF
the issues that were before them;
and we believe that today a
still larger majority will stand
by those city officers in their
general administration Of public
affairs.
The DEMOCRAT reSents with
emphasis such libelOus attacks
upon the fair name of Great
Bend, and we hope no man viii
be permitted to remain among
us and prosper who stoops to
such low, scurrilous methods to
gain revenge.

system. Less than a dozen
men in these United States have
got CONTROL of practically every
manufacturing industry in the
land! They have been enabled
to get this control only by
grace of the republican party,
and Representative Warner, or
any other republican, who seeks
to curry public favor by, at this
late day, acknowledging the in
iquity of the scheme, can only
square himself with his country
and his God by going farther
and acknowledging that the
only way that people can ever
get relief from the tariff-created
trusts OF today is by retiring to
oblivion the party which created
them and made them possible
through a protective tariff.
The claim is set up that the old
Perry mill at Atchison built in
1861, probably marks the ad-
vent of the milling industry in
Kansas. This is mistake.
Bushrod Washington and Mich
olas McAlpine built and success
fully operated a steam Touring
mill in this city in 1857. And
prior to that, time Matthias Split
log away back in theforties built
and operated a horse mill on the
site now being used for the erec-
ton of ST. Mary's Church, corner
of Ann avenue and Fifth street.
|-Wyandotte Herald.
WE KNOW this to be correct,
for we worked with Nicholas Nc
Alpine in 1871 to 1878, when he
was treasurer of Wyandotte
county, and have heard him tell
of his early milling experiences
there.
BEGIN the day right. Don't
start a quarrel at the breakfast
table over some trivial matter,
and set the whole family on
edge. Good humor at meal
time aids digestion more than
! any kind Of bitters. Start out
in the morning with the resolve
that you will make the best of
all circumstances and not try to
reverse the order of things you
cannot CONTROL. We only live
on this earth once, and if we
spend our time quarreling with
fate we will never be fit for life
in any other world. End the
day right. Don't let your last
word before retiring be a cross
or a complaining one. Sleep can
never be restful to a grumbler.
