In the last congressional cleo.

These contributions to the re.

tiles in which they dealt would BE-
kept sufficiently high to bar out

With this end in view the tariff
trusts and combinations of manu-.
faoturers contributed literally to
Republican campaign funds.
The expenditure Of this tainted
money enabled the Republicans
to come dominate CongressI The
tariff was revised upwards The
manufacturers were given
their monopoliesl Prices were
boosted
The result is that the people are
now repaying to the tariff trusts,
in increased prices, not only the
amounts invested as contributions
to the Republican campaign fund,
but they are also paying a profit
varying from 100 to 1000 per cent

nomination for Congress in the
Twenty eighth District of Penn
sylvapia. Mr.. Sibley received
10, ,446 votes at the primaries, and
each vote represented sn expen-
diture of nearly S4. AS his plur.
ality was only $50 it is fair to say
that his nomination was brought
about by the sheer power ol
money.
AT the primaries in the Thir'
teenth District Of Pennsylvania
John Dalzell spent 80, 200, most ol
which was contributed by pro-
tected manufacturers. The com.
bined expenditures of Sibley anG
Dalzell in these two districts were
nearly $50, 1000. Their combined
salaries as Representatives in
Congress for two years will b.
only $4,000. Their nominations
therefore, cost, almost $40, ,00t

Portageville Critic: Hez ekiat
Grogan, who killed Louis De.
Montcourt eleven years ago, and
who received a 99-year sentence,
was pardoned July 4th. Mr..
Grogan is now in the employ Of
the DeLisle Box Co., at Wardell,
as sawyer. He was regarded az
the best saw mill man in Missouri,
and up to his trouble, he was
considered an honorable man.
And now it is said that Dave
Ball will run for governor again.
We understand this announce
ment comes from Mr.. Ball, him
self. It was hoped that his last
race would satisfy him on this
score. He made enough fuss
over the st. Louis vote to defeat
the ticket in November, and could
hardly be brought to see but what
it was q righteous act when he
was the BENEFICIARY of the padded
vote in certain wards in st. Louis.

ABOUT TREES.
Judicious Use Of Axe Among Trees In
Some Neighborhoods Necessary.

Among persons who use more senti-
ment than reason, or lack knowledge
of the facts, it has become fad to
say it is a crime to cut down a tree
ard that it is always, under any cir
cumGtancts. an act of great virtue to
plaEt one.
To one who gives thought to the
matter, these accepted principles may
be reversed, and we can say with all
seriousness and truth that there is
not town in this country where the
judiriouS use of the axe among trees
in some neishborhnod or ether is not
demanded; and on the other hand
