Bravex, Secretary. Chairman. TURN OUT TO THE PRIMARY. The Union, a weekly paper pub- lished for the benefit of the Union » Labor party, made a plaintive ap- peal last week to the democrats, who had gone into. the Farmers & Labors’ Union in good faith as a Mon-partisan organization, to stay away from the primaries on next ‘Saturday, and if they do go not to vote or participate in them. If this ‘paper was started in the interest of the F. & L. U. organization and is ¢ now working in the interest of that } | order why does in insist, in the most offensive terms possible, in trying to drag it into politics? The facts are that paper was started by a few dis- gruntled fellows from the two old parties, and by some very fine man Epulation succeeded in getting the . & L. U. to endorse it as an organ Eo - that order. These slick fellows ‘then set about to get the stock well istributed through the different | lodges. This they succeded to some extent in doing and the paper “bagan to devote its whole space to 4 the success of the Union Labor par- eae iy. and has been so bitterly partisan that it has repeatedly abused and ilified the state officersof the F. &L (OU. and the official organ of the state (beeause those gentlemen and that ‘paper tried to keep the order out of itics. Every democrat in the ty should turn out to the pri- Maries on the 30th and help nomi- ‘mate a ticket. There is no reason to offer why they should not. Every There should be no Jaw this year. Let every man te his sentiments. Congressman John T.

Accord ling to the best information I can get | Saline county is the only one in my | |district which would have any |chance for getting one, and it is not \certain that she could. The other h counties of Boone, Howard, | Cooper and Pettis, produce largely of grass and feed most of their | grain crops to stock, and none of them meet the requirements of the bill on application for a depository, while the smaller and less populous counties south of these would have only the privilege of paying an in crease of taxes as their net interest in the operation of the law. The very districts whose people would need most help would get the least. Missouri has 114 counties, and would 92 be content to pay higher taxes in order that the 22, now rich enough to get the benefit of the law, should be more favored? Or would those 22 not reject a law that proposed to benefit them only by increasing the burdens of their less fortunate neigh- bors?” Drag it Into the Light. Mr. Carlisle yesterday entered the tariff fight and his first shot struck home.: He exposed the injustice to American consumers of keeping up prices artificially at home for manu facturers who sell their products abroad at greatly reduced figures. The ability of foreign nations to undersell us in the markets of the would is assisted when our manu- facturers supply them with wares at prices lower than our people are compelled to pay. If we send abroad agricultural machinery for 15 or 20 per cent less than we charge our home farmers we are helping com- petitors to sell agricultural products against us. The foreigners must pay freight before they get our wares, but the quotations of free board ar- ticles at lower prices than our own people must pay at the factory is an injustice. It is curious that the for- eign market becomes £0 valuable when it is a question of extending the sales of manufactured goods and not worth cultivation for the ex- port of ‘agricultural products In the sight of the republican party the rich manufacturers should have all the benetits of both home and foreign markets while agricul- ture should make all the sacrifices for keeping the home market a sacred preserve and all! for helping the man- ufacturers to get a foreign market also. The census will show an enor- mous increase of wealth in. the United States. What claases own the availability, convertible wealth? The farmers own land, most of it mortgaged, and movable property, most of which brings less except in years of short yields like this, less than it did ten years ago. The con- vertible wealth is in New York, New England and Pennsylvania. If sac rifices for extending trade should be made, why not lay them on the man ufacturing and money owning cen- ters? Why not give the agricultur- al states a breathing spell by lower- ing duties and pushing the exports of grain and meat. In yesterday's debate the dates laid for the sole emolument of Nied- ringhaus and company of St. Louis were taken up. That house has a monopoly of certain enamelled and glazed sheet iron ware on which the republican bill proposes to puta duty of 50 per cent. A member of the firm is in congress--a conspicu- ously fitting republican representa tive. Pennsylvania should send Carnegie to keep him company. The people buy thousands of dollars’ along the Missouri river and in the} SOME POINTED QUESTIONS. Asked by a Man Who Has Always Been a Repubiican. | | Indiapapolis Sentinel. Dr. V. H. Munroe, of Seymour, who has always been an ardent re- publican, writes the democrat of that city as follows. Many con- scientious republicans—men who do not want office, but are republicans from principle—are asking them- selves questions like the following: 1. Why is the average yield of $100 invested in manufacturing five times as great as the average yield invested in agriculture? 2. Why do the farm implement makers of this country advertise in Buenos Ayers the same plow for $9, which they advertise in the United States for $18. | 3. Why was quinme $3.60 per ounce when there was aduty on that drug as against 35 conts per ounce now; and if lowering or abolishing the tariff would “destroy American industries,’ at this advanced day, why has the number of quinine manufactories in the United States grown from three, under “protec- tion,” to six under free trade and all of them prosperous? 4. Why was wool 10 cents per pound higher under the lowest tariff thar. it is under the highest tariff? 5. What excuse or pretext can there be for maintaining the present excessive tariff schedule—or for adopting the still more iniquitous McKinley increase—when the coun- try is at peace with all nations, save the solid south, aud when the sur- plus become an inexhaustible fund to tempt unscrupulous and specu- lativ.- legislators? As to the pension frauds. The meu who served creditably in the army of the Union; he who saw ser- vice and swferred; and is now in any wise enfeebied, injured or in need should be pensioned in the most gencreus way. But all able-bodied men who, as 2 matter of truth, were not soldiers in the grand and sacred meaning of that term, should not draw support from the general gov- ernuent. If there be no distinction made between the man who served his country four hours and the one who served four years, then it would appear that governmental justice and equity is at a low standard. Evading the Aye and No Vote. Twenty-six millions for rivers and harbors, with an unexpended bal- ance of 5 million dollars still remain- ing from the last appropriation bill! And this, as Senator Edmunds pointed out, in the full knowledge of the fact that at the end of the present fiscal year the treasury defi- ciency is likely to be 50 million dol- lars, even if the sugar duty is not abolished. No wonder Mr. Edmunds does not care to bear his 1-84th share of the senate’s responsibility for such mad extravagance. No wonder the senators who cheerfully and almost hilariously passed this bill of doom did not care to go on record in avy aye or no vote.—New York Sun. Cost of Pensions and Army. The expenditures for pensions for the year ending June 30, as now Officially stated, amounted to $109,- 357,534. In the previous year we paid $87,644,779.11, while in the year before that we paid $80,288,- 508.77. The cost of the German army, it may te interesting to note, is for this year estimated at $91,- 726,293. Besides our pensions our army corts 30 million dollars.—New York Herald.
