Thus it would be seen that the elevator men reap the ben- efit instead of the farmer. Now, if the farmers’ organization was strong enough, financially, to build their own elevators and hold this corn until a demand made the price, something tangible would be gained. But the majority of the farmers are compelled to sell their corn in order to pay the interest on their mort- gages, and if this money cannot be advanced by the alliance, then they are forced to take what the market offers. It is a condition, not a the- ory, that faces the western farmer to-day. How can he get a fair price for his products, and buy his goods and farming implements for a fair profit to the manufacturer? There is only one hope for the farmer. The markets of the world must be thrown open to him, so that he can sell where he can get the most for his produce and where he can buy she cheapest. The democratic par- ty has always advocated this, and until the western farmer recognizes this fact and votes where his inter- ests lie the present condition of af- fairs are bound to exist. SUGGESTIONS. The farmers court house conven- tion, in Warrensburg last Saturday, in a practical business way, adopted a plan to build a $60,000 court house for Johnson county. After agree ing upon plans the county court was asked to order an election for March 11th, which was promptly done. It was decided by the convention to wipe out the debt in three annual payments. For the past ten or fif- teen years quite » number of the citizens of Johnson county have en- deavored to devise some scheme to build a court house and a number of propositions have been submitted and voted down. But believing that Some efforts have been made by the enemies of Senator Vest to get Col. Sam Major, of Howard county to become a candidate for U. S. Senator. Charlie Walden, of the Fayette Advertiser, queried the doughty state senator upon the point, to which he replied: “Yes, they have got me down as a candi- date for the United States senate, for cougress, for governor, and no telling what it will be next. But I am not a candidate for anything. I expect to serve out my time in the state senate, if I live, and I am for George Vest against the world. The state of Missouri is as safely demo- | cratic as Texas or Georgia, though not by so large a majority, and I! think the new census will give tke state three and perhaps four new | congressmen, the largest increase of | any state, and you will see us roll upan old-fashioned democratic ma- jority at our next election.”—Nevada Noticer. In the Senate on Wednesday Mr. Hale reported back from the com- mittee on census, the bill appropri- ating $1.000,000 to enable the su- perintendent of census to prepare statistics of farm owners, renters, mortgages, interest and rents. Sen- ator Sherman opposed the appro- priation on the ground that the sta- tistics would be of no value, and that that much money would be wasted. After discussion the bill was passed by a vote of 47 to 4. The lowa Legislature. Des Moines, Ia, Feb. 9.—The democratic caucus will consider to- morrow morning the last proposi- tion for ending the deadlock sub- mitted by the republicans. The general talk to night is that the dem- ocrats will not accept it, but many democrats are in favor of accepting some terms, and it is probable that this proposition may be modified to suit them. Otherwise the situation remains unchanged. ATen Million Dollar Concern Comes To Grief. Minneapolis, Minun., Feb. 6.—The | affairs of the American Building and Loan Association have been brought to a crisis by Public Examiner M. D. Kenyon in a Teport submitted | yesterday to the attorney general. The examiner has discovered facts which make it appear to his mind that it is unsafe or inexpedient for the concern to continue business The fact cited is the astounding one that thereisan excess of receipts over assests of $74,218,928, or in oth- er words, that the association has received that amount of money liberty, the watch dogs of the coun ty’s records and the county's good have not tired in well doing and de- cided that they would again test the Pulse of the people. So the farmers of the county were appealed to to take action in the matter. Accord- ingly township conventions were called in each township in the coun- ty. These conventions were largely attended and delegates were elected to attend a mass meeting in War- rensburg, and the above is the re sult of their labors. Now the point we wish to make is: First.

Sharply Attacked. | Lathrop, Mo., Feb. 7.—For some running here in defiance of the lo- cal option law, the officers simply collecting $15 a month off of each keeper asa fine. Recently several stabbing affrays occurred in these places. This so incenced the good ladies of Lathrop that an indigna- tion meeting was called for 2 o'clock this afternoon. About 100 of the best women of the town responded and marched two and two through the principal streets of the city to the billiard hall of Thos. Ward. Werd had been sent Ward and the ladies found the door barred, but they broke the glass, opened up the place and began their work. Barrels of beer and whisky and cases of wine and brandy were emp- tied into the streets while a great crowd of men who had gathered cheered. Next the ladies visited the noto- rious dive of A. G. Carroll, and on his refusal te meve out of town, proceeded te demolish everything. The liquor was poured into the street and then set fire to. The women then visited the ware- rooms of Thomas;Ward, where quite a number of barrels of whiskey were stored. Upon his refusal to leave town with his billiard tables they smashed all the barrels and emptied the liquor into the street, after which they disbanded. Over $1,000 worth of liquors were destroyed. The excitement 1s intense and troub‘e is feared. Vrotection and Agriculture. In iseussing the above topic in the North American Review the Hon Roger Q. Mills says: The system falsely called protection maintains that commeree is a gambling device in which one party wins and the oth- er loses. Therefore, if England makcs anything in a trade with us she is benefitted and we are injured. But the truth is both parties are beneiitted. We can produce much that she wants better and cheaper ther she can, and she can produce MORMONS CAST DOWN. Much Perplexed Over the Decision as to the Idaho Test Oath. | Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb. 5.— |The Mormons are much cast down ‘at the recent decision of the Su- test oath law, and regard it as the hardest blow the church has ever received. The Gentiles are jubilant and feel it will bring about legisla- tion of a similar character for Utah. The Desert News says: “Any per- son assuming that our rights are not invaded appears to us to be in- genuous. The whole spirit of the Idaho statute is inhibitive of relig- ious freedom. The fiat of the court of last resort on earth has been is- sued. Asa legal fact the Idaho test oath statue stands as a consti- tutional law. This being the case our co-religionists located in our sister territory in the north have no alternative but to be governed by it until He who holds the destinies of nations in His almighty hand shall see fit to remove the political shack- els that are being placed upon a people greatly misunderstood and unappreciated: Hibbard’s Rheumatic Syrup and Plas- ters are prescribed by the leading physi- cians ot Michigan, its home state, and are remedies of unequaled merits for rheumatism, blood disorders and liver and kidney complaints.

Editor Jones of the St. Louis Republic, in a Washington interview says: “We are for Campbell for first or second place in 1892, not forget- ting that in six months past Grover Cleveland has become more popular than he was in the four years of his administration. It was through the influence of my paper in 1888 that Gray of Indiana, was defeated. We have a great interest. in Campbell, and look upon him as the coming man of the democratic party.” .

Cured by Cuticura I cannot say enough in praise of the Cuticnra Remedies. My boy, when one year of age, was so bad with eczema that he lost all his hair. His scalp was covered with eruptions. which the doctors said was scall-head, and much that we want cheaper and bet- ter than we can, and the exchange is beneficial to both. Our vast system of manufacture stands upon the same solid and immovable founda-|f tion as our agriculture. There are but few things in either that we can- not produce cheaper than they can be produced elsewhere, and that ar- ticle whose cost of production is the lowest holds the market against all competitors. Throughout our whole history we have been export- ing a large part of annual crops to others who could either not produce them at all or not as cheaply as they could obtain them by producing something else andexchanging their surplus for ours. No tariff levi- ed upon agricultural products can help them. It can enly hurt we import of thp things that would come to be exchanged for them.
