A NEWSPAPER poet is responsible for

A JorxNT discussion between Mr. Blaine

Free TRADE in colton is a one-sided
game for America, but free trade in wool
is a one-sided game for Australia, says

Henry GEORGE did not help the Dem-
ocratic cause much when he assured the
members of the “Reform” Club, at their
ratification banquet in their palatial club
house on Fifth avenue, on May 28, that
the nomination of Mr. Cleveland ‘‘will
be hailed with joy not merely throughout
this country, but on the other side of the
Atlantic.”
IF the Free-Traders really believe that
the McKinley law is responsible for the
depression in the iron industry, why are
they not honest enough to state that that
law, with one or two exceptions, reduced
the duty on manufactures of iron all
along the line? That is a part of the
subject which does not harmonize with
the Tariff “reform” argument; hence their
silence. Is this Free-Trade honesty?
Tae Berlin Record makes the assertion
that more corn. oats, wheat and other
grain are raised in and around Berlin
than in the western states. Verily, the
Record man is a modern Ananias, or per-
haps Eli Perkins in disguise. He is a
daisy in full bloom. It is all right to
boom a town, but the Record should con-
fine itself to facts. It is true that some
parts of this county produce as much
wheat anc pats to the acre as can be pro-
duced in the west, but when it comes to
corn, no part of Somerset county is worth
speaking of when compared to the amount
produced to the acre in some of the west-
ern states. We have lived here and also
in the west long enough to know what
we are talking about. It is news to ns
that grain of various sorts is raised right
in Berlin, but anyone reading the Rec:
ord would readily suppose that there
is a great deal of hayseed raised in the
office of that paper, which. is doubtless

floor and no roof, judging from the
amount of greenness which emanates
from it. ‘
WniLk a Republican administration is
considering measures to secure free mail
delivery to the farmers, to prevent gam-
bling in farm products which are pure
from suffering by competition with those
which are adulterated, to promote silk
culture, and by reciprocity to open new
markets to our producers, the Democracy
by this bill proposes to take out of the
farmers’ pockets $27,000,000 at one swoop;
and at the same time pretend friendship
to the farmer. Indeed, they propose to
do much worse than this—viz, to destroy
and sweep out of existence one of the
farmer's most valuable indastries. And
what does the Democracy propose to give
the farmers in return for the $26,000,000
which this bill is intended to take from
them? Why, they have formulated a
measure to put binding twine on the free
ist.
What a magnificent help that will be to
the farmer. The duty on binding wine
was reduced by the McKinley bill from
2 cents to seven tenths of 1 cemt per
pound. That duty amounts to the enor-
mous sum of 1 cent to each acre of the
farmer's wheat.
Do you not think, Mr. Speaker, that
the farmers of the country should have
their hearts rejoiced. and cry “great and
gaod is the Democratic party,” for pro-
posing to take the great sum of 1 cent for
each acre of wheat from the list of duties
in return for the $27,000.000 which they
would take from the price of farmers
wool?—Congressman Milliken.
THE brutal treatment of Private Iams,
the soldier who proposed giving three
cheers for the man who shot Frick, is an
outrage upon civilization. That he de-
served a dishonorable discharge from the
National Guards for his unecalled-for con-
duct, is a fact which no sensible man can
dispute. But to string. up a man by a
his thumbs until he faints, ira relic of
barbarism and despotism, and such sav-
agery only serves to breed anarchy and
blood-thirsty criminals. For example,
take Russia, a country noted for its se-
vere measures to prohibit free speech.
and what result do we see? We see that
Russia is a hot-hed of anarchy and nihil:
ism. The Emperor of that country is in
constant dread of being assassinated and
it requires a mighty army to protect bis
life.
Private Iams has more public sympathy
and sentiment in his favor than his des-
potic_punishers and H. ©. Frick com-
bined. Every officer who was impli
cated in the brutal torture referred to is
a despot, and everyone of them shonld
be dishonorably discharged and heavily
fined for his ¢ruel and barbarous com:
duct. Men should be punished when
they deserve it, and Iams certainly de-
served to be punished. but the cruelty of
barbarians and of the dark ages should
not be resorted to in this enlightened age.
of the world. 1f Governor Pattison re-
fuses to punish the torturers of Inms, he
deserves to be held in contempt by every
laboring man and every good citizen in
America:
PROBABLY no man was ever assaulted
with intent to kill for whom there is so
little sympathy as for H. C. Frick. It
seems to ve tlie almost universal opinion
that he deserves no sympathy, and had
he been killed outright (it is a lamentable
fact. but it is true) the majority of the
people would have at least inwardly re-
Joiced, if not openly. { :
Murder under all circumstances wis
wrong, except in self-defense, and all
good citizens want to see cold-blooded
murderers and assassins executed and dis-
posed of. The attempted assassination
of H. C. Frick was a dastardly and un-
and Berkman deserves
the full extent of the law for his crime.
But after all, Frick in reality deserves
but little sympathy, when one remembers
the murders committea by the Pinker-
tons, which Frick and others of his ilk
are directly and indirectly responsible
for. It is as Rev. Meclllyar of Homestead
stated when preaching the funeral ser:
mon of one of the men murdered by the
Pinkerton dogs— ‘Frick has no more hu-
man feeling or sympathy than a toad.”
And again. who is responsible for the
great influx of murderous Hungariaus,
Italians, ete., into this country? H.C.
Frick and others of his class are respon-
sible for the greater part of it. Hundreds
of red-handed cut-throats of Berkman's
class have been brought to this country
by such men as Frick, who take this
means to break up intelligent and organ-
ized American labor. Tt is for these rea-
sons that Frick deserves no sympathy and
gets precious little of it.

A Pointer For Berlin.
The other day we noticed in a back
number of the Berlin Record. that the
local.freight shipped into Berlin during
the.month of April. 1892, tooted up to
895% tons. The Record then proceeded
ta give a whole eolumn blow about Ber
lin a8 an important railroad town an
trade center, which was noticed by the
Connellsville Courier, and that paper rid:
iculed! the Records article ‘in a most,
sarcastic manner. ¥
Now Berlin isn’t any of the worst +
towns, but there is a town hy the name
of Salisbury, right here in Somerset coun:
ty, that is far ahead of it’ as a trade cen.
ter, as Station Agent Riley's books; will
prove. Mr. Riley showed us his hooks
the other day, and we found that there is
nearly five times as much freight shipped
to this place as to Berlin. The tonnage
for some months is greater than that of
other months, but Mr. Riley showed us
that the freight shipped in during the
month of June, this vear, is a fair aver
age, and here are the figures for thal
month; 1.708% tons. That lays Berli
895% tons in the shade, but our 1,708
tons of freight shipped in here in one
month, is nothing in comparison to the
vastly greater amount of freight that wi
export every month. As an importin,
community we are nearly five times as
great as Berlin, and as an exporter, the
Salisbury branch railroad beats all othe
branch roads in the state, according.
reports which recently appeared in ti
Pittsburg Commercial Gazette. The Be
lin branch is operated at a loss to th
& O. company, which is proven by
company’s financial’ reports. We of
borough of Salisbury and of the town
ship of Elk Lick are the people, and don’
vou forget it.
