RECIPROCITY A SHAM.
IH rrrtetulnns Mountain High I It Ac
conipllRliinctit Mulo 1II1U.
In hi bright and somewhat effectivo
campaign speech In Springfield, Ills.,
Wliitelaw Held cnme finally to consider
Republican reciprocity nnd inquired
dramatically!
"Ask the people if they want to throw
wny ft policy that in the first few
months brings such results because the
Democratic convention chooses to cnll it
a sham."
Keciprocity is not denounced as n, sham
because of the favorable trade re nits
which it produces, and of these there are
undoubtedly come, but it is denounced
as a sham because it pretends to cstnl
U?h reciprocal trade relations for tiio
purpose of extending the commerce of
the nation and furnishing a market for
its surplus agricultural products, when,
as a matter of fact, it has been so de
signed as to apply only to the petty na
tions of South America who make little
or no demand for our agricultural prod
nets, while the great nations of the Old
World, which would readily become onr
customers if MoKinleyism did not for
bid, are compelled to seek elsewhere as
far as possible to exchange their goods
for the breadstnffs and provisions which
America can so readily supply. The
pretensions of reciprocity are mountain
high; its accomplishments resembluthe
mole hill. If there be any virtue in the
idea of reciprocity it is the virtue which
tariff reformers preach in their agitation
for lower tariffs, so that trade may be
freed from the shackles which now
bind it to the detrimentof the importing
as well as exporting countries.
Reciprocity as now in vogue is a sham
because it does not oprly to countries
with which it would be effective to stim
ulate trade.
Reciprocity is a sham liecnuse it is
skillfully designed as chiefly to promote
the sale of tariff enriched manufacturers.
Reciprocity is a sham becanso it is the
sugar coating around the protection pill
which tho farmers of the west are asked
to swallow.
Reciprocity is a sham because while
designed to lieneflt the manufacturers of
the east, who seek markets in South
America, it pretends to be designed for
the fanners of the west, who really need,
however, reciprocity or tariff reform
that will enable them to sell their provis
ions and breadstuffs in the great mark
ets of the manufacturing centers of tho
Old World. Omaha World-Herald.
WISCONSIN SAFELY DEMOCRATIC.
Slimmer Will lie Whipped Ag-ulu mid
Peck Will Remain Governor.
Until two jcurs ago Wisconsin was
rlasstd us almost invincibly Republican.
The magnificent Democratic victory of
1890 placed the stato in tho doubtful
column.'. It may now be removed from
that column and classed as safely Demo
cratic. "" t ii ', .
By placing John C. Spoouer at the
head of their btate ticket, Wisconsin Re
publicans -have shut themselves, out
from any hope of reprieve from the sentence-
of popular condemnation passed
upon them- two years ago. ' They have
enrolled themselves nnder the banner of
a professional lobbyist, corporation agent
and itching politician. Overwhelmingly
repudiated by his state two years ago,
when a Democratic legislature was
elected to choose his successor in the
United States senate, John C. Spooner
is fitted only to lead his party in Wis
consin to fresh defeat and humiliation
as its ' gubernatorial candidate. The
man of whom his own party organ, the
Milwaukee Sentinel, confessed that he
had been known "for many years past
as the chief of the corporation lobbyists
in Madison," , is not the .Moses to lead
Wisconsin Republicans ont of the wil
derness. On the tariff and the school issues
Hoard and Spooner were defeated in
Wisconsin two years ago, and on these
same Issues Harrison and Spooner will
be defeated in Wisconsin next Novem
ber. The national Democracy is now
enlisted with Wisconsin Democrats in
the ' battle for "parental , rights and
sights of conscience in the education of
children," in behalf of which, as an "es
sential to civil and religious liberty,"
the Chicago -platform makes a ringing
declaration. . r '.
Governor Peck will be his own suc
cessor, and the electoral vote of Wis
consin will be cast ' for the Democratic)
presidential ticket St. Paul Globe.
' Iemocratlo Tariff Law.
We denounce Republican protection
aa a fraud, taxing the labor of the great
majority of the people for the benefit of
the few. We declare it to be a funda
mental principle of tho Democratic party
that the federal government has no pow
er to impose and collect tariff duties ex
cept for tho purposes of revenue only,
and we demand that the collection of
such taxes shall be limited to the neces
sities of the government when honestly
and economically administered. Na
tional Democratic Platform.
Another issue of great moment in tho
pending contest is the force bill. The
magnitude of this issue cannot bo over
stated. It may mean tho control of the
election of representatives in congress
by the bayonet. Tho Republican party,
by its acts in tho Fifty-first congress and
by its platform iu its late national con
vention, stands pledged to the passage
f the force bill. Adlai E. Stevenson.

It is not unatiir.il that the people
of New York and New Jersey should
regard with dislike tlu Reading
Railroad consolidation, or that tliey
should welcome with exultation the
injunction granted by Chancellor
McGill, of New Jersey, upon lease
of the Central Railroad of New Jersey.
New York City has long had the
great advantage of active railroad
competition, toge her with the larger
advantage of free use of the Erie
Canal. Philadelphia, meantime, lias
been practically in bondage to a sin
gle railroa.l company vhich possessed
a monopoly tinder which the com
merce of the city could make no
headway. Poth New York and New
Jersey for many years have been per-
nutted to buy coal taken from the
mines of Pennsylvania at less price
than were required of Philadelphians,
who live nearer to the coal mines and
who have a right to enioy the berefit
of their position. That New York
City nnd the State of New Jersey
should be averse to surrendering the
advantages they have had in these
particulars cannot be complained of,
but it is equally unreasonable to
complain that Philadelphians should
try to obtain justice for themselves,
and should rejoice when the instru
ment for obtaining it had been fash
toned. It is safe to sav that no event that
has happened for many years gave
more solid satisfaction to the com
mercial interests of this city than the
extension of the power and the area
of control of the Reading Railroad
Company. That great enterprise
presented itself to Philadelphia, not
as a combination for purpose of op
pression and extortion, but as a pro
ject which would at once re.ieve the
business of the city from the tryanny
and hurt inflicted by the great cor
poration which hitherto had held
Philadelphia trade at its mercy.
This relief, in fact came at once. It
appeared in the substitution, by rail
way officials, of courteous solicitation
of freights, for insolent indifference
in the quick settlement ol long de
layed claims: in the offer of increased
facilities for shipment and immediate
enlargement of certain kinds of com
mercial operations. No Philadelphia
man " not directly interested in the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
would be willing to return to the former
condition of things. The practically
universal feeling is that the city has
had a great deliverance, and that now,
for the first time for many years,
through the instrumentality of the
Reading combination, the commercial
forces of Philadelphia have a positive
assurance that they may operate un
der conditions of fair play.
Thus Philadclphi ans do not - wel
come Chancellor McGill's decision.
and they do regard with feelings of
satisfaction the . assurance that .the
power to break a lease does not in
volve the ability to forbid co-op
erative action, which will attain all
the purpose for which the lease was
arranged. They,. are not indifferent
that the price of coal shall go up or
go down; but they are much more
deeply interested in having made
permanent a system which will sup
ply them with fuel at prices lower
than those that must be paid by con
sumers at a greater distance from
the coal mines. The Philadelphia
manufacturer cannot be expected to
mourn because his competitor in
Jersey City or New York must pay
more lor luel than he pays. Nor can
any citizen of this State find reason
for regretting that provisions have
been made for stopping the practice
of mining Pennsylvania coal at a
loss. There is no reason, in morals
or in revealed religion why we shouid
disembowel the btate of its mineral
treasures for the purpose of supplying
to citizens of New York the best fuel
in the world for less than its real
value. These are some of the con
siderations which reconcile the peo
pie hereabouts to a consolidation of
railroads that has appeared very
grievous to some other persons.

Would you rather buy lamp

round, or one that lasts till some
accident breaks it ?
Common glass may break or
not the minute you light your
lamp; if not, the first draft may
break it ; if not, it may break
from a mere whim.
Tough glass chimneys, Mac
bcth's " Pearl-top " or " Pearl

Where can you get it? and

Your dealer knows where and

PTooiIh, anil n considerable export trade
in Agricultural implement. In tbift lat
ter branch homo nnd foreign trade lints
thow that our manufacturers givo their
fuicign customers a heavy discount
from their American wholesale price".
This of course they r.ro obliged to do
to get tho trade, as foreigners are riot
obliged by law to pay JicKinley prices.
When European plows are offered in
South America at 40 per cent, under
McKinley prices, our exporting manu
facturers must cut 4t r cent, or lose
the trade. This is bo plain that it is self
evident; yet some manufacturers havo
been inconsiderate enough to deny it.
Mr. A. P. Farqnhar, the head of th
Pennsylvania Agricultural works, i
more candid, however. lie sells largely
both at home and abroad, and he makes
no pretense that he tries to keep tip Mc
Kinley prices when outside the lines of
the McKinley tariff.
Ho declares that he is ready to meet
competition on the merits of his goods.
"The farmer is being destroyed," he
says. "We are killing the goose that
lays the golden eggs; nnd I honestly be
lieve now that it is to the interest of the
manufacturers to eliminate the protec
tive feature from our tariff laws. Cer
tainly if our manufactures are sold
much lower abroad we could only need
protection to get better prices from our
customers at home. We do manufac
ture aud sell in Canada, South America
and Europe many agricultural imple
ments and machines, and could we have
freo raw material nnd the commercial
advantages which frco trado would give
us, America would become the great
manufacturing emporium of the world,
and tho farmer of course would share
the prosperity, 'since he would have less
to pay for everything and get better
prices for all ho sold."
This is common sens", but so hng ns a
manufacturer believes in artificial Mc
Kinley prices and shrinks from com
petition on tho merits of his goods, it is
idle to expect him to show common
seuso. But it is even more idle for Mc
Kinley manufacturers to deny that they
sell cheaper abroad than they do at
homo, if they sell abroad at all. If they
did not, 011 what grounds would they
ask tho American peoplo to go on pay
ing McKinley taxes to protect them at
homo from the competition they meet as
soon as they get beyond the lines of
McKinley custom houses. St. Louis
