WHO

was it that went down into the ele- vator in Egypt hundreds of years ago and bought all the grain, or at least got corner on the market. As far as we understand he was the first one ever born who started mOnop- oly,. or in other words. a trust; there fore, for short, we'll call him grain king. From that time up to the 18th century there has been quite a number of trust kings, but here they never were in it for a minute with cur present day kings, for instance, our grain king, the Standard Oil king, the copper king i've don't mean the Meriden road copper king), the cotton king, and. worst of all, the coal king. Say, we've been wondering of late as to whether this latter coal king is possessed of heart. In all probability he haG one, but for heav- ems sake, what is it composed of? Is it made of Carnegie steel or polit- 1cal steal? Is t of guerrilla type or IS it composed O. real Americanism? If it's the latter, and we hope it is, why the dickens don't he prove it so and settle the coal strike? He might as well say the word for humanity's sake; he should remember that he cannot take his wealth with him when he closes his eyes for his, last rest Say, we've been thinking that this coal king, smart as he is, doesn't drink tea or coffee, or if he does he buys the cheap trash The quality of tea we sell at 50c per pound would do this coal king more good than dozen trips across the ocean. Any one in doubt should try it from

The foregoing ticket was named by

The convention adopted platform
which makes no mention of free sill
yer or the national declaration Of the
party at Kansas Kansas City. This Is
ignored the silver question since the
Dubuque conventions Of 1896, when free
silver at the ratio of 16 to l was spe-
officially Endorsed. The result today
reached at the conclusion of q pro-
tracted contest when, by a vote Of 1884
to 344, the convention refused to amend
the report of the majority of the COM
mittee on resolutions by inserting a
plank reaffirming the Kansas City
platform. The initial plank over which
the contest arose reads:
I'VE, the chosen representatives Of
the Democratic party in Iowa, In dele
gate convention assembled, hereby de-
clare anew our faith in the fundament-
al principles of the Democratic party
and renew our allegiance thereto"

BLAINE AND THE TARIFF.

Our evening Republican contempora-
| ry, without questioning the contentious
of T he Clio e to the effect that Blaine,
If alive, would condemn in high disgust
| the action Of his party; first, in en-
acting the outrageously high Dingley
tariff; second, in defeating all propo-
sitions to take the tariff off of trust
controlled goods; third, in passing the
Porto Rican tariff act, and fourth. IN
| defeating reciprocity with Cuba, is not
so certain in regard to Blaine's posi-
ton upon the subject of reciprocity
| with Canada.
1t calls attention to the fact that
Blaine opposed the Canadian treaty
providing for reciprocity during the
Boring sea fishery dispute. But was
Blaine's opposition to the treaty named
based on opposition to freer trade re-
! lations with Canada, or upon the
| ground that the terms Of the treaty
| made too great concessions in regard
to the rights Of the United States in
| the disputed waters?
Here are two questions for our even
ing Republican contemporary:
F'irst-Was Blaine opposed to freer
trade with Canada or any other Amer
lean neighbor, so far as that trade per
| sc was concerned?
| Second-f Blaine was opposed to
Canadian reciprocity at the time OF the
international fishery dispute, would he.
If alive today, judging from his COM
mercial views as to the development OF
a Pan American trade, oppose freer
trade relations with Canada today?
! Third-Whatever may have been
Blaine's tariff and trade views, is the
reduction Of the tariff wall between the
| United States and Canada not right
! and just and necessary to the best
commercial and industrial interests of
| the country and Of the Northwest in
| particular; and is not the Republican
delay and opposition to Canadian reci-
| procity, and especially that of certain
| active members Of the Minnesota dele
cation in that direction, dead wrong
| and inimical to the interests Of the
people Of this commonwealth?

HUNGARIAN RIOTERS
SACK AGRAM SHOPS
They Erect Barricades and the Situa-
ton Grows Worse, Although State
Of Siege Is Proclaimed.

E AGRAM, Hungary, Sept. 3.-Many
houses were wrecked and sacked last
night. The rage of the mob was first
directed against the house Of Capt.
Witas, a retired army officer, who yes
terday fired on the crowd, wounding O.
man. The rioters erected barricades.
tore up the fence, smashed the win
the place when the military dispersed
them.
The mob, however. soon reassembled
and returned. The rioters forced their
way into the house, which they wreck
ed. Capt. Witas and his wife escaped.
The rioters then sacked the houses of
a number of Servians and destroyed
the residence of merchant.
Although a state Of siege has been
proclaimed at Agrarn, and in spite Of
the fact that the principal buildings
and squares are occupied by troops,
the rioting Is increasing. Numbers Of
peasants have arrived here from the
country to help the Crotians. Barri-
cades are being erected and virtual
state Of rebellion exists.
Early today mobs plundered Ser
Wan shops. piled their stocks In the
street and set fire to them. Capt. Wit
as. who was returning to his home,
was seized at the door Of his house
and dragged into the street, where the
old man, in spite of his piteous entreat-
les for mercy, was terribly beaten. The
captain was eventually taken to a hos
pftal in g. serious condition. Many
rioters have been arrested. Reinforce
ments of troops are occupying the
streets.
The proclamation Of martial law to-
day has been followed by the bring
Ing into town and posting Of more
battalions of troops. The rioters have
been overawed by the soldiers and to-
night they are quiet. Opposition news
papers have been confiscated and the
Irbobrat, In which the articles which
caused the riots appeared, will not be
published during the continuance Of
the disturbance.
A mob in the village Of Vraboe
stoned a detachment Of gendarmes.
The latter replied with volley killing
one Of the rioters and wounding sew
eral others
