Mr. Benedict, whom President
Cleveland appointed Public Printer,
seems to hang fire somewhat in the
important matter of confirmation by
the Senate.
Senator Mills, Olosirg Tariff Spaoch.
The most remarkable anc we be
lieve, the most logical speech that ha
been made on the tariff question this
session was the masterly closing ad
dress of Senator Mills, of Texas, on
the 24th u'timo. No doubt the Dem
ocratic political committees will utilize
his common ser.se argument to advan
tage among the farmers, to whom Mr.
Mills paid a highly deserved compli
ment, and with whom he is evidently
in hearty sympathy, regarding them
no doubt as the one class above all
otheisthat have been ruit iously neglec
ted in legislation and criminally im
posed upon through taxation a half
dozen times higher than that put upon
corporate wealth or property. All op
position to the proposed income tax
comes from the quarter of corporate
wealth and not from the poor farmer,
who has scarcely a single Representa
tive who is willing to raise his voice
for him in our halls of State or nation
al legislation. Scarcely one that is in
earnest about helping or relieving the
distressed condition of the farmer, we
solemnly affirm, can be found in our
halls of legislation. And Senator Mills,
fully recognizing this fact, declares
agriculture to be the stable interest of
this country, and that the farmer had
certainly derived no benefit from the
high protective duty imposed in be
half of our manufacturers. He do
clared that no other country could
compete with us in agriculture and
yet this leading industry has no pro
tection. The Republican policy- he said, was
to provide a home market, but where
were the people to be found at home
to consume our five billion dollars
worth of goods made in this country.
In order to carry out this policy we
should have to import foreigners to
consume our surplus agricultural pro
ducts. As to existing business depression
he attributed it to the exhaustive
McKinley tax and obstructions to
agriculture that prostrated the farmers
and " as they fell they threw out their
arms, as Samson did, and pulled down
the whole structure of the temple of
national prosperity."
He said against the assumption that
foreign products would cheapen labor,
that owing to its productive power by
use of machinery American labor is
the cheapest in the world, notwith
standing the claims for high rates paid
labor in this country. As to the in
come tax, so objectionable to the rich,
Mr. Mills said, " Why should wealth
not be taxed ?"
Having struck the popular thought
from the opening to the closing of his
mast.'rly address Senator Mills receiv
ed not only a hearty round of applause
from the galleries, but a very different
reception on the floor of the Senate
from that given the contrary effort of
Senator Hill. This speech should be
in pamphlet form for general distribu
tion. Though we were assured and reas
sured that the World's Fair scheme
was likely to prove the financial ruin
ation of its stock-holders that was
when it was necessary to lie in order
to steal and get big appropriations
the cheering tiuth at last comes out
that a nice little 10 per cent dividend
has been divided among tbem. Con
sidering the times 10 percent, will do,
though it don't begin to satisfy Chica-

We are authorized to sttte that
Hon. C. K. Duckalew will be a camli
d ue fur the congressional nomination
in Cclnmbia County, at the coming
Democratic delegate election. It U
not probable that he will have any
opponent in this county, at least ve
have hoard of none. Mr. Wolverton
has not yet slated his intention to be
a candidate in Northumberland coun
ty, but it seems to be understood that
having had his two terms he will not
run ngai.i. The Democracy needs
such men ns Mr. Buckalew in Con
gress. 1 1 is ability and long experience
in legislative bodies would prove valu
able in such a time as the present.
COXEY AND 00.
This no famous and mad nomad
recently coni.l cried hit four week's
tramp from Massillon, Ohio, to the
outskirts or confines of Washington.
Here he was permitted to encamp his
tattered so called army of several
hundred eccentric work-escapers in
Bightwood Driving Tatk. And here
he haj since been unmolested and
permitted to recite and reiterate his
stereotyped tale of woe for want of
legislation such as he might suggest
and formulate. His speech and ad
vice are given to all comers alike,
whether tliey be representatives ot
weal or woe, ra-a muffin or bon ton.
From a sense of curiosity, quite char
acteristic of Americans, his audience
are decidedly cosmopolitan in general
make up no doubt.
When the framers of our national
Constitution carefully reserved the
right of petition to all (tl;e crankiest
soverign included) it may be it would
nave oeen wise to liive said this
sacred right should be reserved to all
through written pet t ion but nevtr
through personal endeavor, or through
intimidation by force of numbers
(armed or otherwise) at the halls of I
legislation. The inference to be drawn
from the threatening attitude of the
"commonwealers" is that they also
reserve to themselves the disastrous
right of intimidation at the very doors
of our halls of legislation. To follow
the example of the foreign bomb
thrower is only a step farther under
cover of their so called sovereign
rights. To thus approach the Capitol
of this nation, whether as the hired
emisaries of our plutocratic anti tariff
reformers, or as the particular friends
of the Fopulistic idea of government,
we can but deem it as unpatriotic
and disastrous and anarchical in all
its tendencies. Unless it is stopped,
we may fear the worst from those who
are wild enthusiasts if not downright
cranks whenever political or religious
excitement runs high.
As Others See Us.
If English prophecy about Ameri
can stability were worth anything
we should certainly beein to feel
alarmed over the assertion that our
Republic is crumbliner to pieces.
History tells us that she endeavored
to help the crumblinn process before
the foundation of America was fairly
finished, and that she was finally ob
liged to conclude the material we
were building with a little too firm to
crumble well. The latest from English
sources runs somewhat as follows :
"The Coxeyites are, we believe, for
the most part well disposed persons
who naturally imagine tht legislators
should have somethina to offer as
remedies for popular grievances.
Unless we greatly mistake, a conflict
is preparing in America almost as
seiiou3 as was their conflict over
human slavery. Discontent, fierce
and bitter, pervades the whole land."
A Sweet Plum.
A single Louisiana planter gets
$468,900 of the McKin'ey bounty to
the sugar growers, another draws
$392,200 and several more get bevond
the $200,000 maik.
This is the compensatory balance
in wages an J a specimen of protection
those on the plantations fail to under
stand, as Mr. McKinley said of his bill
that it would increase and maintain
the wages of labor.
The plain fact is, however, that in
the Louisiana sample it taxes the
whole people to add to the million
aires' millions.
There are so many forms to the
trusts and combines that consumers
can never keep track of them, but the
truth is a first class assistant. Phila
delphia Timet.
Washington News.
Now this is the way the news heads
from Washington read concerning the
woe of the "commonwealers who have
got there at last :
Army put to flight. Brownie and
Jones jailed. Their resistance to pol
ice officers lands them in the police
station. Christopher Columbus Jone3
blames their failure on the newspapers.
A prayer for more paper money.
Wouldn't object to a little more of any
kind gratis. Congress is too deeply
interested in the march of the Coxeyites
to attend to business. Even the Sen
ate adjourns as a mark of respect
for Senator Stockbridge of Michigan
who recently died. Being himself an
illustrious martyr, Coxey will now let
the American people speak for him
which they have already done in clar.
ion tones that jailed him.
