An IDAHO VIEW

tion TO Have the Popuiists Endorse

"Pr0tection'

"PrOtection"
Editor Independent: | have just
read Mr.. De Hart's article on protec-
ton. Mr.. De Hart states that he sup
poses not many populists Will take
favorably to protection. In this |
think he is correct. Shall we indorse
the mother of trusts and then de-
nounce the offspring? Shall we, the
populists, who have time and again
denounced this robber' tariff system as
one of the greatest curses that was
ever imposed upon the American peo-
pie. come out and indOrse it?
Mr.. De Hart also states that whether
Bryan or Cleveland controls the dem
ocratic party, it will die next year,
and it will die on the tariff issue.
Ever since | can remember this same
old tariff (tax) has been a bone of
contention between the democrats and
republicans, and still this old tariff
for-revenue-only party lives on.
| do not believe the populist party
would gain one vote by indorsing pro-
lection. On the other hand. ! believe
the party woald lose thousands of
votes. 1t is not because OF our pro-
tective policy that our people have
lost faith In the populist party. but
because of fusion with the old parties
which we have become disgusted with
and left. Down in some of the south
ern states, In democratic strongholds.
the populists and republicans fused
to beat the democrats. Four or Ave
years ago was down In Oklahoma
Woods county,. there the democrats
and republicans fused to beat the
popnlists.

Europe. for they send hundreds of
millions of goods over there and sell
them without the least high tariff
protection. High protective tariff and
railroads are are the TIVE big machines for
making millionaires 1t certainly
would not be unjust to compel trust
mOnopOlies to sell their goods to us as
cheaply as they sell in Europe.
Nebraska is the most exclusively
agricultural state in the Union. We
have no minerals of any kind, nor any
timber. 1t is unjust to make the
farmer work two days on the farm for
one day in the factory. Repeal all
special laws and then we would be on
just level with the manufacturers.
1t would be just as sensible for Mr..
De Hart to advise the peoples party
to adopt the gold standard, retire the
giecnha1ks and sell the silver and al
low Lo other money to circulate be-
s!,ie gold and wildcat bank bills.

IT IS A JOY
TO BE CURED.
Painful Piles Become Painless at Once and
are Cured in Short Time.

1t almost pays to have the piles SO
great is the feeling of relief when
Pyramid Pile Cure is applied. They
are in the form of supposltories and
reach the affected parts at once and
the pain ceases and mild feeling of
ease and comfort takes its place. The
healing process begins immediately
and continues as long as the cure is
administered until the sufferer is per-
tectly and completely we'll.
How much more sensible is this
method than the barbarous torture in
t1icted by the knife and instruments?
How much more satisfactory to be
able to administer simple effective
remedy in the privacy of the home
than to submit TO the humiliation of
an examination and operation in the
physicians chair.
Pyramid Pile Cure cures piles to
stay cured. Thousands and thousands
os sufferers the country over have
found this out through the testimony
OF their friends and Others. ana the
sale of this remedy Is increasing
enormously every week and month
II Is certainly glorious thing TO be
able 10 make great numbe<s OF peo-
lie happy aud nothing will cause hap
piness so much or do IL SO quickly
as relief from pain and the cure of a
dreadful disease. The proprlcttrs OF
Pyramid Pile Cure. therefore, have q
great feeling Of qualification and hap
piness themselves wnen the letters
from former sufferers come pouring In
on them telling OF the wonderful cures
aud rejoicing and giving thanks for
their doliseranee from this terrible
disease.

Mr.. HARDY's VIEWS


tho sopis's Party Adept .P-s.ss-
tion q . Cardinal Plank
Editor Independent: We would
like to join issue with John S. De Hart
on. the tariff question. To start with,
we would first lay down what the
foundation of our government should
be. 1t should govern with equal JUS
tice; it should grant equal privileges
and afford the same protection to ev-
cry individual, every community, and
every state. The law should not help
one class, one industry, or one calling
to the detriment or loss OF all the rest
or any of them.
Will Mr.. De Hart tell us how much
higher price the farmers of Nebraska
get for their produce under the pres
ent high protective tariff than they
would under free trade. Then will he
tell us how much more we have to pay
for. American manufactured goods un-
der high protective tariff than we
would under free trade. The farmers
OF Nebraska do not get one cent more
tor what they sell and have to pay
several millions more for the Ameri-
can manufactured goods they buy.
This is not just and protective tariff
is unjust unless it helps all alike.
The European market governs the
price of farm produce and we have TO
compete with cheap farm labor of
Europe, India and South America. If
We sell any of our produce in New
York or Boston we have got to take
less than the European price the same
hour and If we buy any American
manufactured goods there we have to
pay European price with the high pro-
tectiye tariff added. The tariff on
foreign goods goes into the govern
ment treasury, the same amount OF
tariff on American goods goes into
the American manufacturers pocket.
The tariff is not just unless it helps
Nebraska as much as it helps Massa-
chusetts. Nine-tenths of the people
think no tariff is paid, only on for
eign goods.
Must the reform party fall in and
swallow rank injustice because ma
jority of the people advocate it? 1t
would have been no worse to have
swallowed slavery back in the SOS.
No, all refOrmers should continue to
kick injustice no matter whether with
the minority or with the majority.
All taxes should be equal on all
selling values All imported articles
should be taxed the same per cent ac-
cording to selling value. IL anything
is taxed more than other things, II
should be luxuries and curses. Tea
and coffee, silks and fineries should
be taxed ten times as much as life
necessities; opium, tobacco and in
toxicating liquors should be taxed one
hundred times as much.
If farmers can compete with cheap
farm labor, why can't manufacturers
do the same? They do compete in

1t would be a very serious thing
for this state if some OF the Lincoln
dailies should get even slight circu-
Iation down in Boston. The Indepen-
dent has time OF it with the Boston
critics. What would one of those crit
les say of the following sentence,
taken from the News: Reach towards
the ephemera of the daily press as
the summum bonum of didactic liter
ature." The word "ephemera" means
lasting but a day; "summum bonum"
means the thing most desirable, and
"didactic" means intended to teach.
So that sentence says: Reach towards
the lasting for a day of the daily
press as the thing most desirable in
tended to teach literature" That
sentence without doubt will convince
the mullet heads who read the News
that they ought to stand pal" and
always vote 'er straight.

APPROVES De HART
Populist National Committeeman Low
rance Fully Approves Mr.. Do Hart's
POsitiom on Protection
Lincoln, Neb.

Editor Independent: 1t was with
much interest read the article OF
Jno S. De Hart in the last Indepen-
dent.
Up till 1892 was a free trader. But
Cleveland's last administration proved
to me beyond doubt that tariff for
revenue only will not do this coun-
try; and now am protectionist and
you Will find the cotton mill men OF
the south are fast becoming protec-
tionists. | believe the time is not far
distant when the south will change
fronts in politics. The politicians
have been bowling niger for years
and now most of the states have dis
qualified the. negro and the democratic
politicians have about lost their grip.
The article by Mr.. De Hart through
out was to the point and fully meets
my approval. S. A. LOWHANCE.
Mooresville, N. G.
(Without discussing the merits or
demerits of protection" The Indepen-
dent would suggest that the Wilson
BILL after Being Thoroughly German
lied and made protective, was not en-
I-acted and effective as law until more
than year after Cleveland's inaug-
uration in 1898. The panic of 1888
began under the Mckinley law; 1t
was intensified by the repeal OF the
purchasing clause of the Sherman act
Quite naturally the cotton mill men
OF the south ''are fast becoming pro-
tectionist." Why shouldn't they? The
protective tariff is for their especial
benefit. EditOr.)

Poor Harold. BY the time he reach
ed the corner the tears were falling
thick and fast, SO thick and fast he did
not see Dr. Bingle, he ran right into
him.
"Bless my soul. if there isn't one of
my boys" said DR.. Bingle, who had a
great many boys and girls in the city,
at least he called them his, "and what's
he crying about?'
Harold sobbed out the story of Miss
Lady and Toby.

the doctor said.
ooh, do you really and truly" asked
Harold. '.Sposen it's Miss Lady?
Wouldn't it be funny, and, of course,
he would be awful glad to get her back
again.
Harold's tears were drying, and he
was now all excitement.
"Well, well, little man, you jump
right in, We'll get the kitty, and go up
to the little boys house. that is, if
mamma is willing"
Mamma C. was willing, but Miss
Lady very unwilling. She spit and
growled and clawed when they put her
into the covered basket, and mewed
most pitifully when they drove away
over the rough paving stones.
Jerry, the other little boy, was sitting
up in bed; what white little face he
had and what big, big eyes!
When DR.. Bingle told him he had
brought back his kitty, the big eyes
grew bigger and rounder, and two thin
little hands began to clap for JOY but
when Miss Lady, with fur all bristled
up, scared most to death, hoped out
of the basket, there was great pause.
Jerry's mamma shook her head mean
ingly, and the little boys lips began to

again. AS to being black, Miss Minnie
has seen lots of trouble since she got
lost, reckon; it's like my hair, its all

Both little boys thought this quite
probable, and when the kitten turned
her back upon Harold, and Struggled
down among Jerry's pillows, they de-
clared she must be, really and truly, the

way. Miss Lady, or Minnie, was a great
comfort to Jerry while he was sick.
