The Annual Free Trade Lie.

The Kansas City Star has been
claiming that the Tariff on broom
corn was the cause of the high prices
OF brooms. The Republicans have
held that 1t was a shortage of brooms.
The Star of last Thursday contained
an article written by one of its re-
porters saying that the shortage of
broom corn was now in sight, and the
to $3.50 per ton and brooms to 45
and 80 cents each. But big crop of
broom corn was now in sight,and hte
dealers of Kansas City believe that as
soon as the crop is ready for the
market that broom corn will drop
$50 to 500 per ton and the prices
OF brooms back to 20 and 25 cents.

Correction About Roads.

Editor Republican, notice in your
paper some facetious comments apon
the sondition of the public roads,
by Mr.. ]. w. Camp, that are mislead-
ing as to the community mentioned.
The roads in question are in Horse
Branch precinct, but Mr.. Camps let
ter appears from OlSton, because he
receives his mail by rural route from
Olaton. The Olaton precinct roads
are in good condition. | make this
explanation because of my response
bility, as overseer, for the proper
maintenance of the Olaton precinct
roads. In fairness to the oversser
for the House Branch precinct, ]
want to say out of nay own expert
ence that all the roads cannot be
reached at once, but by the close of
the season all the roads in Ohio coun-
ty will have been put in better condi-
ton htan they ever were before.

How About The Farmers.

How about the West, with which
the importations of Canadian grain,
hay, butter and other natural pro-
ducts would come into direct compe-
tition? If New England is entitled
to protection for manufacturers, is
not the West as fairly entitled to
protection for farm produce? And if
Canada will consent only to recip-
rocity which affects natural products
how is the matter to be arranged in
manner to suit all American in
terests? OF course the difficulties may
not be insurmountable, and it is pos
sible that, coming together in an am
icable spirit, the United States and
Canada may yet fix upon a plan that
will be mutually satisfactory and ad-
vantageous. But every time the ques-
ton is candidly discussed it is found
that the United States Tariff is by no
means as serious a malefactor as enc
mics allege. And when it is realiz-
ed that under our Protective system
the country has become the great
est manufacturing nation in the world
and also one of the largest exporters
OF manufactures, honest students of
the situation must admit that there
is a good deal to say in favor of
American Protection.-Troy Times.

Help From Assistant Democrats,

In this years campaign book issued
by the Democratic managers extracts
from the speeches of Tariff-ripping
Insurgents are conspicuous. Beve-
ridge, Bristow, Cummins, Dolliver, La.
Toilette and others of the Insurgents
are thus utilized to defeat the Re
publican party.
The Democratic Committee recalls
the fact that when Grover Cleveland
ran as a candidate for governor in
New York State the Democratic State
Committee made selections from the
New York Tribune and had them print
ed by the Tribune as an extra, and the
committee circulated many thousands
as a campaign document. The result
was very helpful to Mr.. Cleveland
and this Democratic committeeman
believes that the use of the speeches
of Beveridge and others will be equal.
ly beneficial to the Democrats in the
coming campaign. Nearly all of these
utterances are attacks on the Tar
iff law passed by the Republican par
ty, and are calculated to discredit that
party in the minds of voters as ut
terly unworthy of confidence and
support. So. if the Democrats elect
a majority in the House of Represen-
tatves next November they will have
to thank the Insurgents for valuable
assistance.
