it will not lie surprising if they shall

even of China. Fortunately tin

in the latter case all will have plenty

Farmers and Lower Wages
Tree t raders generally ar'iie that
protection has nothing to do with
waues, hut a day or two ao a Ha
publican farmer informed us that the
farmers of his neighborhood were
beinjr assured that if the Hills bill
passed and if Cleveland was elected
the wiitfcs of farm labor would be
greatly reduced that then the wiu.'-
es would be no higher than was paid
to the same kind of labor in Europe.
In other words, that the Democrat it1
policy Willi. II VHtlTAI.ITY I'AITEKIZE

the workinmcn think of this fea
ture of the issue '!
At the same time, these over-zenl
ous and imprudent free traders did
not stop to consider that the farm
er's first question, after such a state
ment, would be : And will that
benelit the farmers ? And an exam
ination by the fanner intotheeondi
tiou of the farmers of England and
the pauperized farmers of Ireland
would be to show that 1 he di trrada
liun of the f;i! Iin-r billowed quickly
nil the heels of t he degradation of
t he laborer, M.d that in no count rics
.if the world were the farmers in a
worse condition than in free trade
countries, when- labor w as so cheap.
l'lie traders will not fool the
American farmers with such trash.
The man who invented the milk
shake machine linn already made
$100,000 out of it. It in not always
the complicated and wonderful in
vention which makes the most
money. While the inventor of the
milk shake is rolling in wealth easily
required, Sir. Keely, of motor fame,
continues to dodo his creditors.

Partisanship vs. Citizenship-
From the fact that there are al
ready eifht parties or factious in the
field, who will present their claims
to the voter in the coming campaign,
the question very naturally arises.
Is it necessary to have so many par
ties in existence, or is there room in
the United States for more than the
two principal leading parties who
are dominant in the field to-day T
Wc have often heard tin; remark that
opinion governs the world, and in a
country like ours it is to be expected
that there will and ought to be a
great diversity of opinion ; but there
is plenty of scope to develop it and
advance new ideas, fresh impulses,
and broader views of statesmanship
in either of the parties in power,
rather than endeavor to create a fac
tion which is of but mushroom
grow th, springs up in a few days,
and in as short a time dwindles and
vanishes from public notice. In
these frantic efforts to establish and
build up parties the voter has to a
certain tlegree overlooked his citizen
ship while fruitlessly beating the air
in trying to attract attention as a
party, either one of those factions
combined within the limits of either
of the two leading parties would act
as a mighty lever to raise them to
some efforts to meet their demands.
What advanced idea of statesman
ship or progressive government has
ever been developed by any of these
side issues who chose to designate
themselves parties? None what
ever. They seem to have but one
incentive, one principle, one motive,
one idea, and that a government like
ours can be made a one-horse affair
out of, is too ridiculous in the ex
treme ; it partakes too much of the
nature of quack medicine which is
warranted to cure every kind of ail
ment that human llesh is heir to.
Where in the history of the world
can a country be found that in little
over a century has made such pro
gress in National development and
prosperity like ours ? We assert and
maintain that it is without a parallel.
How has this been accomplished
and w hat means have been employed
to produce it ? Has narrow-minded
bigotry, egotism mul selfish pnrty
interest brought it about .' We an
swer emphatically, "No ;" but this
march of progress and reform has
been pushed on by men whose ideas
were as broad, open and expansive
as the canopy of heaven which
spreads its mantle over our conti
nent, men who could legislate for
the country and not for party, men
who had at heart the interest of
every man, woman and child within
our boundaries, aud not for fact ions
or classes of men.
These one-idea fanatics have yet
to learn that radical reform and the
supplanting of old and established
ideas by new and somewhat vague
opinions, can not be brought nbout
by one act of legislative dictation.
It is dangerous to attempt to go
from one extreme to another unless
you are prepared to meet stubborn
resistance, revolution and blood
shed. But it can be done by gradual
and liberal legislation, and prepar
ing and educating the masses up to
the (standard of acceptance.
There nre then several questions
of importance that confront the
patriotic and honest American citi
zen of to-day : Is my party of more
importance than my country ?
Should party interests bo the domi
nant idea, and the country's require
ments be made subservient to them ?
Is it right to work for my country
demand my support and aid f Am I
an American or the blind devotee of
some fact ion of dissatisfied element
of jiarty aspirants t When ho pon
ders over these questions and con
siders what a narrow and limited
scope is offered to a partisan, but
how broad and expansive is the
work of a citizen, hi: will not hesi
tate to come out boldly on the side
of his country.
