Republicans Stand By Your Flag ! The political party that controls the government of the state, or the nation, is justly held responsible for the unpopular laws that arc passed. Many Republicans are dissatisfied with the tariff law re cently enacted by congress because it is not exactly as they wanted it, and are about to make the mistake of going over to the Democratic party or its adjunct and annex, the Keystone party. The new tariff is an improvement on the old. and the best the presi dent could get enacted. In a re publican government the majority must rule. The inequalities in the tariff can be rectified without de serting the party Very unreason ably these dissatisfied Republicans blame their party for the dishon esty of some of its officials. There was a traitor among the twelve disciples but no one would think of blaming Jesus Christ or his church for tin; crime of Judas Iscariot. There is a story of a man who be came frantic at the destruction of his barn grain by the rats, and burned the barn to get rid of the rodents. That man was foolish. The rats could have been gotten rid of without this radical remedy. There had lieen some "whiskey ring frauds" and "star route scan dals ' under Republican adminis trations, and for this reason Carl Shurz, Henry Ward Beeclier and other influential Republicans made the mistake of joining the Demo crats and electing ( trover Cleveland instead of James (J. Blaine, one of the foremost, talented and exper ienced statesmen in the nation. Mr. Cleveland was better than his party, but could not control it and when the Wilson free trade tariff bill was passed by a Demo cratic congress lie had not the cour age to veto it. but allowed it to be come a law without his signature. This Wilson Democratic tariff did not produce revenue enough to de fray the regular expenses of the government and Mr. Cleveland was obliged to borrow gold at an exor bitant rate of interest in order to pay the interest on t-lie public debt. Borrowing money to pay the in terest one borrowed money, was the result of Democratic ascenden cy in 1884. Those dissatisfied Re publicans whose votes elected Cleveland lived to see their mis take. The Democratic measures produced a money panic with hun dreds of mercantile failures in ev ery part of the country, closed fac tories and work shops and threw tens of thousands of laborers out of employment and the only means of earning their daily bread and supporting their families. The hard times continued until the Re publican party was restored to power and the McKinley tariff en acted. Castelar. SHUNK. Mrs. Fred Brenchley is visiting her parents near this place.

Hurtz. the slayer of Stanley Ketchel, the middleweight champion pugilist, has been captured near Nian gua, Mo., seventeen miles from the scene of the shooting. Ketchel was shot while eating break fast and died after being removed to a hospital in Springfield. With the arrest of Mrs. Goldle Smith, who posed as the wife of the pugilist's slayer, the police have dis covered another motive for the crime. Mrs. Smith has signed a statement to the effect that Ketchel insulted her on the morning of the day the shoot ing took place, and that news of the conversation that offended her so in flamed Hurtz that he was greatly wrought up. The police are inclined to believe Mrs. Smith's story. Following is the statement signed by Mrs. Smith: "While 1 was working in the house Ketchel insulted me. I becamo angry. He was greatly wrought up over the incident and pleaded with me not to say anything to Ilurtz. He said he would give me the best team of horses on the farm if I would keep quiet. I made him no promise. "When Hurtz came home 1 told him what Ketchel had said to me. He was very angry. I think that is what caus ed him to kill Ketchel."
